Relatable With Allie Stuckey

Today we're excited to be talking with Christian blogger Samuel Sey and his fiancée, Annie, who managed to find each other despite living in different countries, and the harsh restrictions Canada imposed on its people as a response to the pandemic. We'll discuss their story of overcoming both personal struggles and a near-tyrannical government over the past few years to make their relationship work. Then, we discuss the ongoing Freedom Convoy of truckers who are still camped out all around Ottawa, and Samuel gives his perspective as a regular Canadian on what the convoy means to him. --- Timecodes: (0:00) Introduction (2:44) Samuel & Annie's COVID love story (46:05) Updates on the Freedom Convoy in Canada --- Today's Sponsors: Masterworks is an alternative investment platform that lets you buy shares representing an investment in multi-million dollar paintings.

Today we're talking to Dr. Scott Atlas, a former White House advisor on COVID policy and author of the new book, "A Plague Upon Our House: My Fight at the Trump White House to Stop COVID from Destroying America." We discuss the disorganized mess that was the American response to COVID from Dr. Atlas' insider perspective and how bureaucracy and politics ended up winning out over science and common sense. Of course Dr. Fauci is largely responsible for this, but there is another figure, Dr. Deborah Birx, who doesn't get as much attention and yet was possibly more instrumental than Fauci in laying the groundwork for the government's insistence on lockdowns, masks, and vaccines. We also provide an update to the information in yesterday's episode about the Biden administration providing crack pipes to drug addicts; Snopes tried to "fact check" this story, but, as usual, they just wound up proving us right. --- Today's Sponsors: Carly Jean Los Angeles is a helpful, inspiring resource to guide women in building c

Today we're taking another field trip to "Clown World," where the alleged leaders of our country have decided that distributing "smoking kits" to drug addicts is a good use of taxpayer money. If there was any evidence whatsoever that this policy might help people, it might be worth considering. But this is not the case. We debunk the leftist myth that making drugs more accessible will somehow help people beat addiction, and then we discuss what's wrong with the kind of moral relativism that leads people to believe such nonsense. Marx may have said religion is the opiate of the masses, but we're pretty sure it's crack cocaine. --- Today's Sponsors: Cozy Earth sheets come in 4 awesome new colors & have a 100-night sleep trial.

Today we're talking with Megan Basham, a reporter for the Daily Wire who recently wrote an article exposing how Francis Collins and the NIH co-opted evangelical leaders like Tim Keller and Russell Moore, influencing them to support the establishment narrative on masks and the COVID vaccines. Interestingly, everything these people claimed was a "fringe conspiracy theory," like lab-leak theory or that masking isn't actually very effective at slowing the spread of COVID, turned out to be correct. So why were Francis Collins, the CDC, and others so adamant about their own unverified ideas and so dismissive of anything the Right had to say about having church in person or freedom to choose whether or not to be vaccinated? --- Timecodes: (0:00) Introduction (8:56) Interview with Megan & how Francis Collins duped evangelical leaders to grift for him (54:40) Discussing the NYT op-ed by David Brooks about evangelicals --- Today's Sponsors: Z-Stack is a specially formulated immune-boosting supplement that includ

Today we're finishing our discussion with James Lindsay about history, Marxism, and theology. As James explains exactly what Marxism is and what its historical roots are, it becomes increasingly clear that this ideology is entirely antithetical to that of the Christian's. Apparently, the Marxists want redemption for mankind as well, but they believe that can only happen when literally everyone on Earth has complied with their worldview. We also discuss some Christian theology as well, and why it is has been such a good foundation for Western Civilization to thrive on. And although James isn't a Christian, he talks about why he still thinks Judeo-Christian values are the best for society. --- Today's Sponsors: Birch Gold are the best people to trust to help you diversify your 401(k) & IRAs into gold.

Today we're talking to Brad Polumbo, a libertarian journalist who recently started the website BASEDPolitics, a news site dedicated to covering stories from a liberty-first mindset. Brad opposes "big government" conservatives, and despite the threat that the woke Left poses to our country, he warns against using state power for short-term wins against the Left. We discuss what the moral foundation of the Right is, or should be, and where we have very strong agreements on some issues of liberty. We also talk about some of our disagreements on when it's time to involve the government to solve problems. Lastly, we get into some of the moral background behind conservative and libertarian philosophies and where our theological and agnostic viewpoints converge and diverge. ---- Today's Sponsors: ExpressVPN helps you browse more anonymously: it's easy to use & works on all devices!

Today we're discussing Francine Rivers' wildly popular book, "Redeeming Love," as there was a major movie adaptation of it released recently. Despite many women's fond memories of reading the book as teenagers, it really does a poor job of translating what the book of Hosea is trying to tell us. Ultimately, this book does more harm than good, as it ends up glorifying earthly struggles and relationships over living a life committed to the Lord. --- Today's Sponsors: Carly Jean Los Angeles does the hunting for you & provide clothes that are effortless, easy, & flattering on any shape, size, age, or season!

Today we're thrilled to welcome our friend James Lindsay back to the show who's published a new book, "Race Marxism." James is an expert in all things Marxism, critical theory, and how leftists in this country are getting what they want, bit by bit. We discuss some of the lesser-known details about the history and philosophy of Marxism and James explains how it functions as an "intense religion." We also talk about how leftists since that time, from Woodrow Wilson to the black feminists of the 1960s, and people like Ibram X. Kendi and much of the modern Democrat Party, have adapted Marx's ideas and kept them alive to this day. James describes how leftists use language, propaganda, and outright bullying to shape society in the way they see fit and how their views on "structural forces" are diametrically opposed to Western views on individualism. --- Today's Sponsors: Good Ranchers is giving away 40 free chicken breasts to every order that uses promo code 'ALLIE'.

Today we're talking about the massive protests that have been going on in Canada over the past week. Thousands of truckers formed a "Freedom Convoy," with the giant line of trucks making its way all the way from the west coast of Canada to Ottawa, where enormous crowds gathered to protest against vaccine mandates. And of course, wherever there are people who just want to be free, the mainstream media is there to lie about it. The Left is adamant that this enormous (and diverse) group of Canadians is just a fringe group and that they're actually white supremacists and fascists. We'll easily debunk those myths, then we look at the effects that protests like the Freedom Convoy have had: Some countries are actually listening to their people and easing or removing their COVID restrictions. ---- Today's Sponsors: Marley Spoon & Martha Stewart is the meal kit that tastes like no other, delivering fresh & premium pre-portioned ingredients for some of Martha's favorite recipes straight to your door!

Today we welcome our friend Jennifer Lahl back to the show by popular demand. Jennifer is the founder and president of the Center for Bioethics and Culture, and as you may know, has dedicated herself to raising awareness about the ethical problems and potential dangers of 'big fertility' and the surrogacy industry. Last time, we talked about the corruption surrounding this industry, and today we're going into the ethics and philosophy behind IVF, frozen embryos, and surrogacy. As science progresses, more and more aspects of childbearing can be replicated artificially, which raises serious concerns about how we view women, family, and life itself. Unfortunately, there is major financial incentive to keep the myth of surrogacy going, as companies stand to make huge profits, and the women they deceive are convinced they're doing something morally right. --- (0:00) Introduction (3:23) Interview with Jennifer Lahl (5:00) Questions about surrogacy (39:17) Let's talk about IVF - what do we need to consider? --- To

Today we're talking about COVID and Allie's personal experience with the virus. After nearly two years, the 'vid finally visited the Stuckey household. We discuss how this saga put in perspective the rest of the pandemic and reminds us of all the times the government and the media shot their own credibility in the foot. We also talk about the Biden administration's apparent desire to worsen the pandemic, as evidenced by the FDA's removal of emergency use authorization for some types of monoclonal antibodies. --- Today's Sponsors: Masterworks is an alternative investment platform that's made investing in multi-million dollar art easy & affordable for everyday investors.

Many people who identify as Christians don't know their Bibles. According to a recent study, while 61% of Millennials profess to be Christians, only 2% have a biblical worldview as defined by Barna. Ligonier Ministry's "The State of Theology" reveals why: Many self-identifying Christians don't know the basic tenets of their faith. This theological confusion negatively affects people's worldview in a way that impacts society for the worst. The time has gone for true Christians to be complacent. As the world strays further from God's truth, we must hold fast to it. That starts with knowing what it is. --- Today's Links Millennials Have Radically Different Beliefs About Respect, Faith, and America https://bit.ly/3KHG3te The State of Theology https://bit.ly/33JO945 Your questions, biblical answers at Got Questions. https://bit.ly/3ABe6Pq Allie's Recommended Resources https://bit.ly/3FRExBb --- Previously on Relatable: Ep 132 | Predestination https://apple.co/3IuQSNy Ep 135 | Socialism https://apple.co/

Today we're talking to Jennifer Lahl, an author and filmmaker and president of the Center for Bioethics and Culture. She is currently dedicated to raising awareness about the corruption of the surrogacy industry and the potential dangers of in vitro fertilization. Although many Christians support these things because they are pro-family, Jennifer explains why this method of having a family comes with a higher number of problems and victims and exposes the big money that the fertility and surrogacy industry rakes in. --- Today's Sponsors: A'del Natural Cosmetics is a family-run, holistic, handcrafted & toxin-free cosmetic company where ALL of their products are made in the USA.

Today we're mainly focusing on theology, starting with a reaction to Oklahoma pastor Mike Todd's strange sermon, in which he spat on his hand and rubbed it on a churchgoer to make a point about vision or something. Gross. However, Todd has realized since then that he took things a little too far and made an apology video. In the video, he encourages people to watch the rest of the sermon and not just the clip going around on social media ... so we did. And, unfortunately, his sermon turned out to be the kind of exegetical teaching that is a hallmark of prosperity gospel. Then, we discuss the recent rush by the mainstream media to condemn Justice Neil Gorsuch for not wearing a mask to hear arguments at the Supreme Court, which is apparently putting Justice Sotomayor in danger. Even though they're both triple-vaccinated and tested regularly for infection. --- Timecodes: (0:00) Intro (0:59) Mike Todd's viral sermon illustration, reaction, & his apology (17:53) The difference between eisegetical & exegetical

Today we're demolishing the myth of overpopulation, the basis for the "anti-natalist" movement that says that people shouldn't have kids for the good of humanity. We look at the history of this worldview and why people are so convinced that overpopulation is a serious threat to humanity. This type of thinking has wound its way through some of the worst ideologies in history, from actual white supremacists in America to the Nazis and then to Planned Parenthood. However, the threat of overpopulation is far from fact; it's just a theory that has already been debunked by history. Nevertheless, this theory has taken hold of many people, inspiring them to view children and family negatively. Many of the most influential and wealthy people in the world think this way too, and they're moving mountains of money to organizations that match their ideology. But, as we'll discuss and back up with biblical and historical evidence, having kids is a credit to the world, not a debit. Note: Thomas Malthus’s name is pronounced

Today we're talking to Josh Hammer, conservative commentator and opinion editor at Newsweek. Josh is here to break down a few of the stories that have taken over the news in the last few days, starting with the hostage situation that took place in a North Texas synagogue. Apparently, an armed Muslim extremist thought he could negotiate the release of a convicted terrorist by taking some innocent people hostage. Thankfully, no one lost their lives. However, since then, the media have been working overtime to hide any information about the case that runs counter to their narrative that says white supremacy is basically the only threat America is facing. Then, we discuss the heavy-handed speech Joe Biden gave in Georgia in support of the Democrats' "voting rights" bill. Josh explains how, despite the name, this bill would actually dilute the power of the average American's vote. Lastly, we talk about what the GOP should do and what issues it should focus on heading into the new year in order to capitalize on Dem

Today we're talking to Justin Haskins who has just written a new book alongside Glenn Beck, 'The Great Reset: Joe Biden and the Rise of 21st-Century Fascism'. The wealthy, powerful people who hang around the World Economic Forum and Davos are serious about "resetting" the way the economy of the world works. Justin explains the nightmarish economic system that these people want to implement, called "stakeholder capitalism." Basically, the leaders of corporations and governments will work together to exercise extreme control over everyone beneath them. Things like the Green New Deal and ESG scores are current examples of how this agenda is being implemented in the real world. We also discuss how COVID has been their "golden opportunity" to convince people to go along with the Great Reset agenda, allowing governments and corporations to seize power in the name of health or social justice. Then, Justin says that the Great Reset can still be stopped, but the window of opportunity is closing. He goes over what he t

Today we're talking about the Left's favorite pretend villain: Christian nationalism. As one year passed since the Capitol riot, the bad takes about Christianity and conservatives were flying fast and furious all over the internet. Even renowned Christian theologians like Russell Moore have fallen into the trap of thinking that "Christian nationalism" is some kind of existential threat to America. We'll discuss why that isn't the case and how the real threat of authoritarianism in America is coming from the Left, not conservatives. And, we respond to the pope's recent comment that couples who have pets instead of having kids are being selfish. Timecodes: (0:00) Introduction (1:12) Dems will keep using Jan. 6th to convince people to give them more power (10:48) The Christian Nationalism "villain" (37:25) Pope Francis says people who only have pets & not children are selfish --- Today's Sponsors: Chamonix by Genucel is having a huge clearance event right now — save 60% off their handpicked, most popular

Today we're talking with Andrew Klavan, author and the host of "The Andrew Klavan Show" on the Daily Wire. We're discussing the insane ways the Left bends truth to its will in pursuit of power. A perfect example of this is the Justice Department's announcement that it is creating a unit focused on domestic terrorism in commemoration of January 6. While they're all too happy to go after right-wing rioters, or even just concerned parents at school board meetings, they completely ignore any violence or wrongdoing from the Left, as seen with the countless BLM/Antifa riots that took place throughout 2020. Andrew gives his thoughts on what conservatives should do in this environment and how we can work to save the American system of limited government and individual liberty. The truth is, this isn't a time to sit idly by or hold your tongue out of fears of ostracization. We need to be bold and willing to take risks when it comes to fighting the political and cultural battles that lie ahead in 2022. --- Today's Sp
