We start with a not-so-subtle wardrobe choice on a Carnival cruise—an upside-down pineapple shirt that accidentally sent the wrong signal.

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 ...

A guy on live TV is absolutely convinced parking meters are ripping him off. He just forgot how math works.

The panel unpacks what real love—and real Christian witness—should look like in divided times.

Then Steve Wyatt shares the core ...

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?
