This week's episode is a preview of my forthcoming book, How In The World Did We Get Here? Today I read Chapter 4, "Sexual Revolutions," which explores the Twentieth Century sexual revolutions which have shaped our prevailing culture's views on sexuality, marriage, family, and the relationship between the sexes. 

In this week's episode, I address the question of how we should live in the light of the concerning current events and trends that we are witnessing and experiencing. Does expressing concern about the state of the world mean that we are living in fear? And does speaking out about these issues make us fear-mongers? 

Following up on the previous two episodes focusing on family life and the important role that parents have in their children's lives, this week we consider the role of fathers, especially as it relates to their responsibility toward their sons. Is there a "crisis of masculinity" in our society? And if so, what is behind it?

This week's episode follows up on last week's discussion of the "separationist" trend, focusing specifically on the issue of government-subsidized universal daycare and the way the separation of children from their mothers continues to be encouraged. Beginning with Brian C. Robertson's book, Day Care Deception: What The Childcare Establishment Isn't Telling Us, we'll examine the question of who benefits from the move from in-home parental care to institutional care of children outside the home. Hint: it's neither children nor their parents!

Experts tell us that absence of parents in children's lives is not as damaging as we may imagine it to be. In this episode, we examine that claim, using Mary Eberstadt's 2004 book Home-Alone America as our starting point. 

In this week's episode, we take a look at a recently-published article about "cultivated meat," and the way in which the narrative is being shaped to promote the consumption of meat substitutes grown in bioreactors. 

This week's episode is a conversation with Dwayne Faber, an American dairy farmer, writer, and public speaker, about a number of issues surrounding the production of food and the agricultural industry. In a wide-ranging conversation, we touch on issues including environmentalism, food security, GMOs, and how to think of these issues in a way that is shaped by our Christian worldview.  Dwayne's website is https://dwaynefaber.com/, and he can be found on Twitter here: https://twitter.com/dfaber84. 

In this week's episode we take a look at the Rockefeller Foundation's 2020 policy paper, "Reset the Table," and examine the way in which this organization is seeking to shape the narrative about the "food system" in the United States (and the world). 

In this week's episode we follow up on last week's discussion of Klaus Schwab's "great narrative" by taking a more in-depth look at the ideology and practical outworking of the technocratic system of government, using Parag Khanna's 2017 book Technocracy in America as our starting point. 

Klaus Schwab and the World Economic Forum want to make their ideas "palatable so that a large majority of citizens embrace them." In order to accomplish this goal, they have come up with their own "Great Narrative" - their own understanding of the challenges that the world is facing, and how those challenges can be dealt with. In this episode, we'll look at Klaus Schwab's latest book, The Great Narrative For a Better Future, and evaluate the worldview that Schwab is promoting, as well as his proposed solutions.
