We’re serving up a listener favorite: when the Ohio Supreme Court ruled “boneless wings” don’t actually need to be boneless, and an “all-you-can-eat buffet” ran out of food. The Hot Takes fly, but the meaning is deeper — words matter.

Host Steve Wyatt reminds us that if human words carry weight, how much more do God’s? Whether life feels full or empty, steady or shaken, His Word is un...

We kick off with college football mascots and the unlikely star of Bowling Green State—Pudge the cat. Then it’s a Florida man in Batman pajamas who stopped a thief, proving sometimes your wardrobe really does change your behavior. From there, the crew tackles “Weird-for-Jesus” Christians and why acting strange isn’t proof of faith.

Host Steve Wyatt challenges us to stop copying other Christians or blam...

We start with a new dating trend called Shrekking—lowering your standards in hopes of better treatment. Then it’s the Cracker Barrel rebrand that sparked a storm of outrage online. Both raise the same question: why do we chase image, status, and pride when they rarely deliver what we want?

Pastor Steve Wyatt points us to a different way: the downward path. Following Jesus means emptying ourselves, serving others, and hu...

Only in Denmark: a zoo invites families to donate their pets to feed the lions. Only in politics: Trump jokes that peace in Ukraine might secure his spot in heaven. Both stories expose how culture tries to make sense of life, death, and justice on its own terms.

Host Steve Wyatt shows why that never works — and why the Bible’s story still does. From Genesis to Jesus to us, Scripture is the one true narrative that ground...

We start with a not-so-subtle wardrobe choice on a Carnival cruise—an upside-down pineapple shirt that accidentally sent the wrong signal. Then we dive into the strange new fad of adults using pacifiers to “cope” with stress. From purple rocks to Disney adults, the crew laughs through it all, but also asks: Why are we so quick to grab for shallow comforts?

From there, host Steve Wyatt unpacks what it really means ...

This week starts with a jaw-dropping stat — Americans spend 49 hours a year scrolling their phones in the bathroom. From “TikTok Tush” to toilet-as-a-desk confessions, nothing is sacred. Then we tackle the internet firestorm over Sydney Sweeney’s American Eagle ad and the wild accusations it sparked about race, sexuality, and politics.

Host Steve Wyatt flips the script, showing why judgment is never our job....

This week’s show opens with a look back at July—a month that claimed some big cultural names, from Chuck Mangione to John MacArthur. Then we talk about the viral Coldplay concert video where two very married people got caught on the kiss cam with…not their spouses. The internet called it entertaining. Steve calls it something else: a warning.

Then host Steve Wyatt gets personal. He shares about his darkest failur...

We open with people trying to board planes using their Costco cards as ID—yes, seriously. Then, we unpack the viral post of a CEO publicly shaming her Navy officer husband for his “lack of accomplishments” and why the internet (and the Bible) called her out.

Finally, host Steve Wyatt takes us into one of the rawest realities of faith: forgiveness. Steve reveals how resentment festers when we “save stamps&rdq...

A guy on live TV is absolutely convinced parking meters are ripping him off. He just forgot how math works. Then we dive into Red Jumpsuit Apparatus’ lead singer banning Trump voters from his concerts—while wearing a cross and claiming he’s the only one truly following Jesus. The panel unpacks what real love—and real Christian witness—should look like in divided times.

A pig running down the freeway. A mom reenacting her toddler’s meltdown about poop and rocks. It’s hilarious - until it hits home. We’re all imitating something. The question is: who?

This week, host Steve Wyatt unpacks what it really means to follow Jesus, not just believe in Him, but become like Him. Because faith isn’t about pretending to be good, it’s about walking like your Father.

From a viral obsession with sticks (yes, really) to fans heckling pro athletes about their dead moms—this episode starts light, then hits hard. Steve Wyatt and the team explore what happens when decency dies and cruelty gets clicks.

Then, host Steve Wyatt unpacks one of the rawest and redemptive truths you’ll ever hear:

We open this week’s show with Hot Takes on Operation Midnight Hammer—the incredible 37-hour B2 bomber mission that proved some of the most heroic work is done behind the scenes. Then we spotlight the NHL’s own quiet legend: Sidney Crosby, the only player in league history to score at least one goal per game across 20 straight seasons. What do military discipline and hockey greatness have in common? More than you t...

A banana, a podcast king, and the book of Ephesians walk into a studio…

This week, we break down proper banana etiquette (with a knife and fork?!), Joe Rogan’s surprising shift toward faith, and why so many people with “everything” still feel empty. Then host Steve Wyatt unpacks Ephesians 3 to remind us: salvation is free, but fullness must be pursued. God offers more—but ya gotta go get it.

We kick off with cheese rolling, worm charming, and a live seagull screech—because yes, people are really competing for that. Then comes the darker side of going viral: the story of Mary Kate Cornett, falsely accused online and dragged through the digital mud with no proof and no apology.

In the heart of the show, Steve shares how a 2-year-old’s words—“Mommy is pink”—sparked one of the most h...

Meet Olivia Vinson, the Australian woman who just did 7,079 pull-ups in 24 hours. What drove her? And what does it reveal about endurance, grit, and mental resilience? Then we dive into the bizarre Gen Z “looksmaxing” trend where young men are shaving their eyelashes to appear more masculine. Spoiler: it&rs...

We open with Hot Takes—starting with the viral moment President Macron’s wife appears to slap him on camera. Was it playful? Controlling? Just awkward? Then we dive into the tragic rise of “Run It Straight,” a viral challenge where young men charge full-speed into each other for clout. It’s not just reckless—it’s a cry for purpose.

From slap-happy presidents to savage influencers, the real ...

Fried chicken-flavored toothpaste? Elton John’s identity crisis? The gang puts KFC’s newest (and strangest) product to the test—live on air—and then dives deep into the emotional fallout of fame and name changes.

Do you really need to shower every day? Is your toilet seat cleaner than your water bottle? The team has fun debunking hygiene myths while reflecting on what really makes you clean—inside and out. Then we pivot to the draft-day drama surrounding Shedeur Sanders, son of Coach Prime. Once projected to go #1 overall, Shedeur fell to the fifth round&m...

We open with Hot Takes—including a four-year-old who calls 911 after his mom eats his ice cream (justice is served, sprinkles included). Then we shift to a far more sobering story: the murder of 17-year-old Austin Metcalf. Just one day later, his father publicly forgives the killer. Is it too soon? Too public? Or is this exactly what grace looks like?

In this special episode, we hit pause on the laughs—sort of. The viral interview with NFL legend Bill Belichick and his much-younger girlfriend Jordan Hudson sparked headlines around the world. But what does it really say about love, power, image, and identity?
