Relatable With Allie Stuckey

In today's special early Valentine's Day episode, we sit down with Allie's husband, Timothy (AKA Chief Relatabro), to answer your questions about dating and romance. Allie and Timothy tell the story of how they met and fell in love, and they share how "when you know, you know" is generally sound advice. Timothy and Allie also share their best relationship advice and how good marriage is for both men and women. And we talk about the idea of "if he wanted to, he would" and how applicable it really is in relationships.

Today, we're talking about Russell Vought's confirmation as director of the Office of Management and Budget in Trump's second term after Democrats in the Senate did everything in their power to prevent his confirmation from going through. After all, according to Chuck Schumer, Vought is "Project 2025 incarnate," when really, he's just doing his job as Trump directed him. Of course, that didn't stop Wheaton College, his alma mater, from retracting its congratulatory statement after the social media backlash. We also discuss Rick Warren's most recent post about Jesus being in the political middle. And is Kanye West's latest anti-Semitic X rant evidence of spiritual attack?

Today, we sit down with Wesley Huff, Christian apologist and Central Canada director for Apologetics Canada, to discuss apologetics, proof for the Bible, and his upbringing in a missionary family. He tells us about a rare childhood diagnosis, which left him paralyzed from the waist down, only to experience a miraculous, supernatural healing exactly one month later. We also discuss his experience going on "The Joe Rogan Experience" as well as his debate with Billy Carson a couple of months ago, which ended with Carson sending him a cease and desist letter!

In today's episode, we go over the best and worst of yesterday's Super Bowl ads, from a tearjerker Google Gemini commercial to a cringe "anti-hate" commercial featuring Snoop Dogg. Of course, it wouldn't be a Super Bowl without the He Gets Us campaign running yet another commercial that completely misses the point of the gospel. At least players and even Nick Sirianni, the Eagles coach, gave glory to God before and after the game. And did Kendrick Lamar mock America, or was his halftime performance patriotic? Lastly, Trump named Paula White, prosperity gospel "pastor," the head of his new White House faith office. We go over some of her false teachings and distortions of the gospel and why, despite her closeness to Trump, she may not be the best person to head this important office.

Today, we sit down with our good friend Megan Basham to discuss everything going on with so-called "charitable" Christian organizations supposedly receiving government funding through USAID. We go over Christianity Today taking government grants and the left-leaning publications that followed as well as whether NGOs can truly call themselves Christian if they're taking secular funds to promote overseas abortions. And we also briefly go over Trump's most recent executive order banning men from competing in women's sports.

Today, we sit down with Allie's dad, fan favorite Ron Simmons, to discuss everything you need to know about Trump's tariffs against Mexico and Canada. We go over what exactly tariffs are and how President Trump is using them to advance an "America First" agenda. We talk about how well they have worked so far as leverage against foreign nations in order to secure the southern border. Later, we discuss actress Lily Collins' announcement of the birth of her first child via surrogate and the controversy that erupted online over it. After all, at the end of the day, surrogacy still hurts children and deprives them of their birth mothers.

In today's episode, we go over President Trump's shutting down of the United States Agency for International Development, or USAID, after Elon Musk's DOGE discovered rampant misuse of taxpayer money. Despite their role of providing global humanitarian and disaster assistance, they've been sending our tax dollars to DEI training in Serbia, among other, far more ridiculous things. We also go over World Relief and other NGOs taking advantage of government funding to promote illegal immigration in the United States. And in some culture news, producer Bri went to the Grammys over the weekend, and we go over the silly celebrity speeches and review our favorite red carpet looks.

Today, we sit down with Chelsey Painter Davis, host of "The Blind Mom Life Podcast," to discuss what parenting as a blind mother is like and how she uses humor as a coping mechanism and a tool to share her story. She tells us about how her blindness was caused by complications from hormonal birth control and how she struggled with her faith throughout that time in her life. Chelsey also shares how she had to fight for her son while she was pregnant with him when her doctor pressured her to abort him. Her son is now perfectly healthy and thriving. We also talk about how she, in her own words, is an "IVF survivor" and what that looked like for her growing up knowing about her "discarded" siblings. She also talks about what it's like living as a blind mom and how she uses her social media presence to raise awareness and be a light in the world.

In today's jam-packed episode, we go over the heartbreaking and horrifying crash from last night involving an American Airlines passenger jet and a Black Hawk helicopter. Our new Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth says an investigation is underway, and our hearts go out to the families of those who perished in the crash. We also cover some theological takes from social media over what loving your neighbor actually means after JD Vance did an interview with Sean Hannity. We get into immigration controversy among Christians after a strange article from Christianity Today, and President Donald Trump signed the Laken Riley Act into law, the first law he signed as president. We also give our best breakup advice after a viral "Bachelor" breakup, and are new moms actually entitled and selfish for asking for gifts from their registry?

Today, we're discussing one of Trump's latest executive orders that bans the chemical and surgical mutilation of children under the guise of so-called "transgender" care. We are so excited for the return of sanity to the White House, and speaking of, Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s first Senate confirmation hearing is happening today. We go over some of his answers to questions about vaccines and abortion, as well as what he plans to do as Secretary of Health and Human Services. And no, he isn't going to take away your McDonald's or Twinkies. But he does plan to get rid of those pesky pharmaceutical ads on TV.

Today, we are very excited to sit down with recently pardoned pro-lifer Bevelyn Williams to discuss her imprisonment and release. Bevelyn tells us about her arrest and subsequent trial and what her time in prison was like after her conviction. But glory to God, Bevelyn told us about how she was able to share the gospel with her fellow inmates while in prison and her experience reuniting with her husband and daughter.

In today's episode, we go over some of Trump's executive actions since taking office, including his proclamation that there are only two genders, abolition of DEI in the federal government, and pardoning of more than 20 pro-life activists who were targeted by Biden's Department of Justice under the FACE Act. Also, Vice President Vance spoke at the March for Life in Washington, D.C., and said that he wants more babies in America. Of course, the propaganda surrounding Trump's new immigration policies is already in full swing, and Vance set the record straight regarding the lack of proper vetting of these illegal immigrants. That didn't stop Selena Gomez from attempting to leverage toxic empathy against well-meaning conservatives by crying on Instagram, though. And was Ketanji Brown Jackson practicing witchcraft at the inauguration, or were her cowrie shells just a fashion statement?

Allie's dad, Ron Simmons, guest hosts today's very special episode. Ron breaks down all the latest happenings in Washington, D.C., including the Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act and why the Senate failed to pass the bill. We also go over Trump's executive order that would end birthright citizenship for the children of illegal immigrants. And, of course, the New York Times suddenly acknowledges that unborn children are, in fact, children but only for "undocumented women." We also talk about the viral White House press conference where Larry Ellison, Oracle's chief technology officer, talked about using AI to develop mRNA vaccines for cancer treatment and why people are so mad about it. And Ron wraps up by answering some of your most pressing questions, including his best parenting advice, how to keep lifelong friends, and balancing financial success without loving money.

Today, we sit down with Pastor Andrew Sedra, founder and lead pastor of Echo Church in Australia, to discuss how the church in America and the West has been weakened by leftist ideology and why so many Christians are leaving what he calls the "feminized" church that appeals so much more to woke women than to men. Andrew tells us about what it was like growing up Christian in the Middle East and how Christianity in the Middle East is being completely eradicated. We also talk about what Andrew says is an "unholy alliance" between Islam and leftist ideology and how it is colonizing and taking over the West. And Andrew tells us more about Australia's COVID tyranny and why America is truly exceptional with its values and laws surrounding freedom of speech and religious expression.

Today, we go over everything that happened during Trump's inauguration yesterday, from Biden's weird farewell post the day before to some of the executive orders Trump signed at the end of the day. Trump made a lot of promises in his speech yesterday, and now it's up to him to deliver on them. And it looks like class and fashion are back in the White House, as Melania Trump and Usha Vance dressed to impress, turning the inauguration into a runway fashion show. But why, oh why, did John Fetterman show up in gym shorts? And of course, Carrie Underwood knocked it out of the park with her impromptu a cappella rendition of "America the Beautiful." All in all, we're excited for the shift in energy this inauguration brought, and we can't wait to see what Trump does next.

Happy Inauguration Day! Today, we sit down with Kevin Roberts, president of the Heritage Foundation, to discuss our feelings about Trump's new term as president of the United States. He also tells us more about Project 2025 and how the Left was able to fearmonger about it, when in reality, it's mostly just average Republican policy. We also discuss the potential dissolution of the Department of Education, and Kevin also gives us insight into how the Republican Party can best overcome its internal disagreements between factions. Kevin tells us how America-loving people can best reclaim our major institutions from the Left and how hopeful we can be for the good that the Trump-Vance administration will do for our country.

Today, we're waving goodbye to Joe Biden's administration as he departs the White House to make way for President-elect Trump. Of course, he couldn't help getting one last jab in at the incoming administration in his farewell address. But to commemorate, we go over our bottom five lowlights of his administration. Also, AOC went on a weird rant about "trans girls" after the House passed the Protection of Women and Girls in Sports Act. And Andrew Tate is once again trending, and we're here to remind everyone why, in fact, he is not someone to aspire to.

Today, we sit down with Dr. Leonard Sax, family physician and author, to discuss the effects of social media on children and what the upcoming TikTok ban means for our young people. He gives us some insight into the dangers that modern entertainment and the shifting American culture pose to children. We also talk about how bad gentle parenting is for children and how to actually enforce boundaries with kids.

In today's episode, we're diving deeper into the ongoing situation with the Palisades wildfire in California and how decades of environmental activism and forest mismanagement led to this point. We also get into the woke DEI policies that contributed to the failings of the Los Angeles Fire Department and how illegal immigration may have also played a role in the fires. And is the delta smelt, an endangered fish, responsible for the lack of water available for firefighting? We also go over Pete Hegseth's Senate confirmation hearing and a few of his fantastic responses to the absurd questioning.

Today, we sit down with Jinger Duggar Vuolo, author of "People Pleaser: Breaking Free from the Burden of Imaginary Expectations," to talk about her new book and how she put an end to her people-pleasing tendencies. We discuss how she broke out of legalism and learned the true gospel as she sought to glorify God with her life and how biblical modesty is the standard to which we should aspire. Jinger also tells us how her people-pleasing ultimately hurt her ability to be in community and gives other people-pleasers advice on how to stop focusing so much on the selfish need to belong and how to let others into their lives.
