    Girl Bosses, Taylor Swift, & Yoga Pants: Smashing Feminism's Idols in the Public Square

    In this episode, I'll talk about why we should ridicule what is ridiculous and why we should smash idols in public. In particular, we'll talk about the three daughters of feminism—three visions for womanhood—that need to be dismantled. They are what I'm calling Girl Boss, Inc., Taylor Swift, and Yoga Pants.

    In Judges 6, Gideon was raised up by the Lord to fight against the Midianites, but first, he was called to smash his father's idol in the public square and to replace it with the altar of the Lord. The people repented, and God sent a prophet with hard words. So, do we need top down or bottom up change? The answer seems to be, "yes."

    C.S. Lewis, Male Headship, & Hysterical Women Ruling

    In his book, The Silver Chair, C.S. Lewis tells an interesting story about a dilapidated school run by a woman trying to be a Head. She is a picture of what happens when women are wrongly put in places of rule, and how weaponized empathy controls an environment—and eats it alive. We'll talk about male headship, why it is necessary, and why women aren't made to rule in home, church, or society.

    Interview with Charles Haywood: NETTR, Franco, & Camp of the Saints

    In this episode, I talk with Charles Haywood about his term, No Enemies to the Right (NETTR), and the updated version, No Enemies On the Right (NEOTR). It's not uncommon today to see conservatives attacking each other, but we talk about why guarding the right flank isn't the best strategy for winning the culture war.

    We also talk about Charles' writings on Franco and a recent review he did of Camp of the Saints and why it matters to the immigration discussion today, as well as the rebuilding of the West.

    Alex Stewart of Premier Body Armor: Family, Faith, and Building Legacy through Business

    When you picture a family business, do you think of bulletproof vests and ballistic protection? That's the unique world Alex Stewart of Premier Body Armor and I explored as we unraveled the company's journey from a small metal shop to the forefront of personal armor. Our conversation took us through the transformation of protective gear, touching on the practicality of innovations like the everyday armor t-shirt bundle—a favorite of mine for its unobtrusive defense—and the clever inclusion of ballistic protection into everyday items like backpack inserts. Alex's insights reveal a commitment to safety that blends seamlessly with daily life, offering a sense of security without the bulk.

    Tucker Talks to Putin, The Woke Regimevangelicals, and 'He Gets Us' Super Bowl Ads

    I'm joined by pastor Dan Berkholder to discuss Tucker Carlson's interview with Vladimir Putin, and why it's significant that Putin talked for 30 plus minutes about the history of Russia. Among other things, Tucker said Moscow is a beautiful city, unlike those in America. Why do we tolerate crime and filth in our streets? As it turns out, we might just prefer it. 

    We also discuss the 'He Gets Us' Super Bowl ads, why Christians prefer badness, and how our woke regime-aligned leaders in the church have sold us out. Christians have a ton of money, but they've spent it in the most worthless, woke places. Why?

    Plutarch's Timeless Wisdom: Alex Petkas on Courage, Leadership, and the Shaping of Great Men

    In this episode, I talk with Alex Petkas, host of the Cost of Glory podcast. He's also a former professor with a Princeton PhD in Classical Literature. His podcast is a dramatic retelling of Plutarch's Lives, which is one of the most influential books in human history. We'll discuss why Christians can benefit from Plutarch. 

    We talk about why there are so few great men today, why rhetoric is important for leadership, and how Alex once interacted with Elon Musk on Twitter/X about Sulla. Speaking of which, why did Sulla execute his political rivals?

    Lonesome Dove, July Johnson, and the Failure of Weak Men

    Larry McMurtry's book, Lonesome Dove, earned him a Pulitzer prize. The author was a master at unpacking relational dynamics in engaging prose. In this episode, we talk about how July Johnson embodies the failures of the soft Mr. Nice Guy.

    We also talk about practical steps for me to stand up to their wives, which is the only recipe for a happy home. We'll dissect the compelling interplay between characters like Gus McCray and Woodrow F. Call, offering profound reflections on life through their humorous dialogues. We also explore the real-world trend of middle-aged career women staying single, analyzing societal norms and personal choices.

    Discover the perils of marrying the wrong woman in this cautionary exploration of women's manipulation and the importance of finding a partner who embodies the Proverbs 31 ideal.

    The Patriarchy is Inevitable: Taylor Swift, Rush Limbaugh, & Father Rule

    As the Taylor Swift X saga continues, it's interesting to note that her father, her producers, and the support staff around Taylor are largely comprised of—wait for it—men. In this episode, we'll unpack just how God has ordered the world and how patriarchy, like Thanos claimed about himself, is inevitable. 

    Rush Limbaugh talked about girls softening their conservative fathers

    The Daily Mail covered my tweet, which now has 22.5 million impressions. 

    Newsweek also weighed in. 

    As did the Washington Examiner, which said Taylor can save America

    Smashing Celebrity Idols: Taylor Swift, a Viral X Post, and Duties of Fatherhood

    A recent tweet of Eric's went viral on Twitter/X, which at the time of this post, had reached over 10 million impressions. What gives? Taylor Swift appeared on TIME magazine as "Person of the Year," scantily clad and with a cat draped around her neck. It may be the perfect picture of today's feminine ideal, but it's also heinously destructive for women, families, and society. We discuss in this week's episode.

    In this episode we talk about a father's duty to protect his daughter's sexuality, and why this is an important inheritance given to future husbands. We also talk about Doug Wilson's book, Her Hand in Marriage, and why fathers should continue to lead their young daughters in the household.
