The Satanic Temple is now tax exempt and has its own documentary. Scientologists have a measles outbreak on a cruise ship. Homeschooling parents get life in prison for torture. Scientists activate dead pig brains. And we also talk about the new documentary on Netflix Break the House.
With Ohio now banning abortions after 6 weeks we dive, yet again, into the abyss of pro-life versus pro-choice and how many states are now using 6 weeks as a benchmark. We end with a quick discussion about New York City, anti-vaxxers and the measles.
We start with Amanda asking Chad for some family advice. Then we dive into what happens when the people you love are exposed to way too much conservative media. We also lightly touch on how the Christian right is trying to change America into a theocracy through carefully worded laws. We end with nun on nun sexual abuse.
We have a couple stories out of Indiana again. The bigger stories we talk about though are about a Catholic university banning online porn on campus and one woman’s desire to make leggings go away. I was surprised at how long we were actually able to talk about this.
We start with a lot of talk about chicken and a band that we saw over the weekend. Donald Trump is shaking things up again by firing Kirstjen Neilsen and Secret Service Director, Randolph Alles. We slightly touch on Joe Biden’s heaving touching. Then we get into comparisons between Pete Buttigieg and Mike Pence and Trump.
This week we cover a few stories based around Indiana. We have another fired faculty member from Roncalli Catholic High School, Changes to drivers licenses, and active shooter drills gone wrong. We also finish with some Toxic Ash Wednesday ashes that burned people.
We really got beat up, emotionally, over this past weekend. The Mueller report dropped on Friday and we discuss that. But more so than that, we speak on multiple suicides from survivors of mass shootings. Two were students from Parkland, Florida and one a father of a Sandy Hook student.
This week cover a wide variety of topics that touch on some kind of corruption in the USA. We go from the new college admissions scandal to how foreign money is possibly involved with the same sex trafficking massage parlor in Florida that Robert Kraft was caught using. We also touch on a lot of quick updates to other stories from the last couple of months.
This week we start with Ellen Page and her beef with Chris Pratt about his churches stance on LGBT people. Then we dive into Purity Culture and the lasting effects it has on people.
