Cody Bakewell, Daniel, and Collin Klein unpack why traditional religion is suddenly surging, why Islam keeps showing up in the conversation, and what happens when a culture loses its unifying principle.What starts as a raw reaction to the news quickly turns into a far bigger question: are we watching the rise of a modern crusade, or just the latest symptom of a society that no longer knows what it believes? Cody pushes the conversation from Dearborn to Britain to Ireland, while Daniel and Collin challenge the assumptions behind the headlines and trace the historical patterns underneath them.You’ll hear them break down: why Catholicism and Eastern Orthodoxy are attracting new attentionhow “Christian nationalism” gets framed and weaponizedthe difference between separation of church and state and a state religionwhy Europe and America may respond very differently to the same pressureshow religion, politics, intelligence, and culture keep overlapping behind the scenesCollin also goes deep on orthodoxy, the Trinity, spiritual fragmentation, and the appeal of ritual, mystery, and tradition in a chaotic age. Daniel adds the historical and theological context, while Cody brings the lived, blunt perspective that keeps the discussion grounded and unpredictable.If you’ve felt the tension between faith and politics, tradition and modernity, freedom and control, this episode gives you a lot to wrestle with. It’s provocative, historical, spiritual, and surprisingly personal—especially once the conversation turns to what real religion actually means in everyday life.Perfect for listeners who want an unfiltered debate about Christianity, culture wars, Europe, America, and the deeper forces shaping the future.

Did September 11, 2001 permanently alter the balance between government power and individual freedom? In this episode, we dive deep into the long-term aftermath of 9/11 and examine how a national crisis became the blueprint for modern executive power, mass surveillance, and decades of foreign policy decisions. From the passage of the Patriot Act and the expansion of the surveillance state to the Authorization for Use of Military Force (AUMF) and forever wars, we break down how emergency measures evolved into the new normal.

[EPISODE DESCRIPTION - Ready to publish]Corey Zimmerman is learning campaign politics the hard way and turning it into a playbook for real-world change. If you care about New Mexico, health care, education, or what actually happens when someone leaves the comfort zone and starts meeting voters, this conversation is the one to hear.What starts as a status update quickly becomes a revealing look at how a first-time candidate builds credibility fast - by listening, showing up, and refusing to talk in slogans. Corey shares what he’s learned from mentors like Ramona Goldsby and Miguel Padley, how campaigning has pushed him into festivals, galas, barbershops, union meetings, and campus events, and why the most effective thing a candidate can do is have honest conversations instead of just reciting talking points.We break down the issues he’s hearing about most: malpractice insurance driving doctors out, Medicare and Medicaid access, the coming Presbyterian coverage changes, and the growing reality that New Mexicans may be forced to cross state lines for care. Corey explains why he’s focused on practical solutions like tort reform, higher reimbursement rates, and keeping more health care dollars in-state instead of watching corporate middlemen scoop up the profits.You’ll also hear how his campaign is reshaping his view of politics itself. Rather than treating people as enemies, Corey argues for a New Mexico first approach built on integrity, teamwork, service, and responsibility. Cody and Collin press him on party stereotypes, polarization, and the problem with turning every disagreement into a tribal fight, and Corey makes the case that the future belongs to people willing to meet in the middle and work the problem.If you’re tired of empty politics and want to hear what a candidate sounds like when he’s actually learning from the people he meets, this episode delivers. It’s especially relevant for New Mexicans, voters in Bernalillo County District 26, and anyone who still believes leadership should mean listening first and serving the common good. Guest CredibilityCorey Zimmerman is a New Mexico candidate and hospice chaplain whose campaign is grounded in community listening, health care advocacy, and service-oriented leadership. Cody brings the host perspective and sharpens the conversation around local politics, health care, and community impact. Collin Klein adds the philosophical counterbalance, pushing the discussion toward root causes, human motivation, and what it means to think beyond binary politics.Vote early, stay informed, and hear why Corey believes the real work starts long before Election Day.

The "Midwit" Trap: A look at why those who think they are the most intelligent are often the most susceptible to institutional gaslighting. Reflections on Reagan & Gorbachev: Revisiting the famous "alien invasion" unifier and what it says about the nature of external threats.
