I was going to title this episode The Two Abbys, but that would have led to misunderstandings. It’s a two-hander featuring actress Ashley Bratcher and the woman she plays in the movie Unplanned, former Planned Parenthood Director Abby Johnson.

Unplanned came out after Gosnell and before Roe v Wade, the trio of strongly pro-life films of 2018 and 2019. Both the real life heroine Abby and the actress who brings her story to the screen thanks to co-writers Cary Solomon and Chuck Konzelman.  An amazing story, now in cinematic garb.

In this episode you will learn

• How the book came about to begin with
• Why Hollywood’s MPAA gave it a Rated R rating and why this may help the movie’s box office
• The secret that the mother of actress Ashley Bratcher’s confessed to her after she got the role and had begin filming
• Why this is the kind of movie that changes the game regarding the reality of abortion
• Anecdotes galore from the set

• Book Unplanned: The Dramatic True Story of a Former Planned Parenthood Leader's Eye-Opening Journey across the Life Line by Abby Johnson

Carrie Gress is onto something extremely important. We all talk about the anti-Christ, and toxic masculinity, but what about the anti-Mary and toxic femininity? Isn’t our culture marinating in both? Isn’t this a problem hiding in plain sight?

Dr. Gress is a writer, teacher, and candle-maker (and wife and homeschooling mom) whose latest book, The Anti-Mary Exposed: Rescuing the Culture From  Toxic Femininity, goes upstream from conventional thinking about feminism and the sexual chaos around us.

After this interview, you will know:

• The philosophical roots of second wave feminism
• Why so many feminists are lesbian or pro-LGBT
• Why you can’t have the spirit of anti-Christ without the spirit of anti-Mary
• How differently some women are treated by the media elites, like Sarah Huckabee, Sarah Palin, Dana Loesch
• How the twin aims of feminism (take down motherhood and virginity) ar resolved and healed in the person and mission of Our Lady (honored for 2000 years as Mother and Virgin)
• Why the answer to the toxicity is ever ancient, ever new: doing the will of God the Father in all things

Everything you know about the guilty verdict of George Cardinal Pell—along with the background and nature of the charges—is wrong. While sexual abuse is an abhorrent crime, and while Catholic bishops do not have a stellar record of reporting and stopping such crimes, this particular case stinks to high heaven.

George Weigel, best known as the biographer of Pope St. John Paul II, has known His Eminence for over 50 years. He has also closely examined the facts of the allegations and the context of Australian Church/State politics. There is something very, very smelly here.

After this interview, you will know:

• Why is was not just unlikely, but virtually impossible, that Pell could have done what he was alleged to have done two two choir boys in the sacristy of St. Patrick’s Cathedral in Melbourne back in 1996
• The ways in which the whole Australian justice system is also on trial here
• How the ideological collusion between the Victoria police and the Aussie media machine whipped up public venom against Cardinal Pell
• The ways in which George Pell serves as an ideal target for militant secularists in Australia
• Key facts that would have ordinarily exculpated someone so accused
• Pell’s chances for acquittal in his upcoming (June 2019) appeal

Gavin McInnes (muhKINNis) defies any kind of shorthand description. The perpetually lied about McInnes is, inter alia, the co-founder of Vice magazine, the founder of the Proud Boys, a social critic and commentator, a satirist so good his enemies don’t get him, a writer, an ex-atheist Catholic convert, and a resolute family man.

He’s also stinking hilarious, if potty mouthed. (Maybe partly why?) So, potty word alert on this one.

Banned from YouTube, Facebook, Twitter, Amazon—and the sovereign country of Australia owing to his “bad character”—Gavin has also launched a lawsuit against the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) for slandering him as a “hate group” (ironic, considering what the SPLC doe$ for a living) and damaging is career.

After this interview, you will know:

• The background to his exit from the Proud Boys group (it’s not what you’d think)
• Why the Right wants to debate and the Left wants to delete
• Why the far Left became allies with militant Islam
• What “Western chauvinism” means and doesn’t mean
• Where his punch-back-twice-as-hard attitude comes from
• Why his woke (and rumor has it fictional) brother Miles McInnes is being hired by Rebel Media

Question of the week:

Why do free-speech advocates assume someone else will always be willing to fight for your right to free speech?
