Hey folks,
We just wrapped one of the most chaotic conversations we’ve had in a while—and that’s saying something. I sat down with congressional candidate Bob Harvie and we got into everything: Trump’s latest meltdown, faith, politics, the economy… and honestly, how all of it is colliding right now. This one gets real, fast.
[00:01:07] We break down the Trump “Jesus” meme and why it hit such a nerve—especially for people of faith trying to reconcile politics and values.
[00:06:18] Bob opens up about drifting from the Church—and what’s bringing people back in this moment. It’s more personal than you’d expect.
[00:08:52] The bizarre DoorDash press conference, “no tax on tips,” and the gap between political messaging and reality.
[00:13:02] We zoom out to the economy—why working people feel squeezed and how both parties have lost the thread.
[00:20:02] Money in politics, broken incentives, and what it’ll actually take to rebuild trust and make democracy function again.
People are feeling confused, frustrated, disconnected and still trying to find something real to hold onto—whether that’s faith, community, or just the belief that things can actually get better. If you’ve been feeling that tension too, this conversation is for you.
And if you value honest conversations like this—ones that don’t just react, but try to make sense of it all—help me keep them going.
