Lara and Carey are back together in the stu once more, discussing Eddington and Carey's loose interpretation of “watching a movie.” On She's Startin', they discuss Cracker Barrel's misguided (or genius) rebrand, the controversy that followed, Cracker Barrel's unparalleled unifying power, and the arduous public transit journey to one of the few open Cracker Barrels in Southern California. They also talk about Will Smith's terrifying use of AI in his post-slap redemption tour, and why he still has a chance to avoid the Flop Abyss. In Armagayddon, they talk Gen Alphas' shameless farting in school, why they've earned guilt-free flatulence, and millennials' own farting privilege; they also discuss one woman's battle with a creeping mold that's threatening her marriage. In Bravissimo, they talk Karen Huger's early release from prison next week and why Potomac's Grand Dame deserves to booze in peace. Then in Ask Us Anything, one thirty-something gay questions his own childless existence in comparison to his straight married friends, and whether or not he should feel behind the heteronormative times.Chapters:00:00:00 Carey "watched" Eddington00:13:35 She's Startin'00:42:01 Armagayddon01:20:32 Bravissimo01:22:47 Ask Us AnythingLara's Posh Live!

We are not backing down in our lawsuit challenging the Ten Commandments in Texas public schools, in spite of the Texas Attorney General's warning that he won't back down from posting them. After covering state/church news in Texas, Arkansas, Minnesota and Colorado, we hear Rachel Maddow's warning about authoritarianism. Then, we speak with April Ajoy, author of the book Star-Spangled Jesus: Leaving Christian Nationalism and Finding A True Faith.

In this conversation, April and I dive into how Christian nationalism has shaped modern evangelicalism and American politics, the fear-based messaging that keeps people from questioning their beliefs, and what it really means to deconstruct faith while holding onto a deep love for Jesus. We explore the impact of misinformation, culture wars, and political agendas on religious spaces, and how to navigate difficult conversations with family and friends who see faith and politics differently. April shares her experience of rebuilding her faith outside of fear, control, and rigid ideology, offering hope to anyone who has ever felt the tension of questioning long-held beliefs.Whether you're deconstructing, reconstructing, or simply curious about the intersection of faith, culture, and politics, this episode will challenge and inspire you. Tune in for an honest, thought-provoking conversation that reminds us all: faith should be about love, not fear.In this episode, we cover:April Ajoy's journey from America-first Christianity to a faith rooted in love, inclusion, and critical thinkingThe fear-based messaging that keeps people from questioning their faith—and why stepping outside the box can feel terrifyingThe real reason so many churches equate Republican politics with Christianity (hint: it's not just about faith)The role of misinformation, culture wars, and political agendas in shaping religious beliefsHow Christian nationalism influences conversations around abortion, LGBTQ+ rights, and women's autonomyWhy some faith leaders are pushing for a government controlled by Christian ideals—and what that really meansThe emotional, relational, and spiritual toll of leaving behind rigid belief systems—and how to find community after deconstructionWhat the Seven Mountain Mandate is and why it's influencing today's political landscapeBe sure to hit subscribe so you never miss the latest episode!Connect with April Ajoy:Follow April for more thought-provoking conversations, satire, and insights on faith and culture:TikTok:@aprilajoyInstagram:@aprilajoyYouTube:@April_AjoyFacebook:@aprilajoyThreads:@aprilajoyBluesky:@aprilajoy.bsky.socialFind her book, Star-Spangled Jesus, wherever books are sold!Connect with Emily:Instagram: @emilyreuschelFacebook: Emily ReuschelLinkedIn: Emily ReuschelEmail List:join hereWebsite

When you hear the phrase "Christian Nationalism," what do you think of? A harmful set of ideologies that threaten democracy? A buzzword phrase used by bad people to demonize good Christians? April Ajoy has had a journey of conscience from being a full-throated Christian Nationalist to someone fighting against the damage she now sees in that set of dogmas. The real trick of it was that at the time, she didn't know that phrase, or why it would have applied to her. She just thought she was being a faithful Christian. On this week's show, she'll talk about her new book Star Spangled Jesus. It tells the story of growing up the daughter of a prominent pastor, and touring the world to evangelize the gospel with her family. She went from absolute certainty in her Christian faith and it's unbreakable connection to Republican party politics, to a massive moral crisis and painful deconstruction.

April Ajoy wouldn't have called herself a Christian Nationalist when she performed her original song “America Say Jesus” on the Jim Bakker show, or when she participated in Jesus Marches across America, or when she posted cringe-worthy videos on YouTube to campaign for Mitt Romney. April just considered herself a good Christian: faithful, Republican, and determined to make America a Christian nation once again. But as her view of the world widened, Ajoy began to see cracks in her steadfast beliefs and recognized the ways her conservative politics and religion were intertwined in her mind. Join Paul and Ashley as they talk with April Ajoy, content creator and podcast host, exploring how aspects of evangelical culture such as product boycotts, Satanic panic, and end-times theology have all been exploited to advance the Christian Nationalist narrative.

Pre-order Star-Spangled Jesus: https://amzn.to/3XfEha8✖️✖️✖️April Ajoy wouldn't have called herself a Christian Nationalist when she performed her original song “America Say Jesus” on the Jim Bakker show, or when she participated in Jesus Marches across America, or when she posted cringe-worthy videos on YouTube to campaign for Mitt Romney. April just considered herself a good Christian: faithful, Republican, and determined to make America a Christian nation once again. But as her view of the world widened, Ajoy began to see cracks in her steadfast beliefs and recognized the ways her conservative politics and religion were intertwined in her mind. Did God really bless America? Is it actually by His red, white, and blue stripes that we are healed? Ajoy, content creator and podcast host, shares funny stories from her time deep within Christian nationalism, exploring how aspects of evangelical culture such as purity pledges, product boycotts, Satanic panic, and end-times theology have all been exploited to advance the Christian Nationalist narrative. She also illuminates the ways nationalist thinking has infiltrated our churches and political arenas, shaping not only modern evangelical culture but also American public policy and international relations.Part memoir, part guidebook, part call to action, Star-Spangled Jesus explores how the fight to make America a “Christian nation” has damaged us all and shows how one woman left Christian Nationalism and why America should too. ✖️✖️✖️Support the Show: Patreon.com/PreacherBoys✖️✖️✖️If you or someone you know has experienced abuse, visit courage365.org/need-help✖️✖️✖️CONNECT WITH THE SHOW:preacherboyspodcast.comhttps://www.youtube.com/@PreacherBoyshttps://www.facebook.com/preacherboysdoc/https://twitter.com/preacherboysdochttps://www.instagram.com/preacherboyspodhttps://www.tiktok.com/@preacherboyspodTo connect with a community that shares the Preacher Boys Podcast's mission to expose abuse in the IFB, join the OFFICIAL Preacher Boys Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1403898676438188/This episode is sponsored by/brought to you by BetterHelp.

Olympic medalist and World Champion Alex Walsh and NCAA swimming superstar Gretchen Walsh, take us behind the scenes of their latest SPORTI collab, the Star Spangled Summer Collection. The collection is inspired by Americana vibes as a nod to the country's, and the sister's, collective spirit going into the 2024 Olympic Summer. Coming off of UVA's 2024 NCAA Championship Team Title, the Walsh Sister dove right into their SPORTI photo capture for this collection. They only took a few days off. They did the photo shoot and launched their STAR SPANGLED SUMMER COLLECTION May 8th. A lot had to happen to make this collection a success. We talk about that process, and we look ahead to the Olympic summer and the Walsh Sister's goals in the pool. Notably, Alex unpacks her decision to take a 5th year UVA...and she was on the fence about doing it. The Walsh Sisters cover a lot of ground in this podcast. We hope you like it!
Who is the biggest Diva of them all? The U.S. National Anthem, which borrows its melody from a historic British drinking song, has undergone enormous musical change in the hands of pop music vocalists. Famously, José Feliciano, Marvin Gaye and Whitney Houston each changed the meaning of "The Star Spangled Banner" by finding new approaches to the performance. Countless others have followed in their footsteps. Now every major sporting event is an excuse for pop divas to make their own creative interpretation. So who does it best? Or worst? Jan Diehm and Michelle McGhee, data journalists at The Pudding, analyzed the pitch fluctuations of over a hundred famous performances to answer these questions and more.
