Today we're looking into a recent story about a college volleyball player who claimed that someone in the crowd continuously yelled a racial slur while she was playing. The problem? It didn't happen. Then, we talk Meghan Markle's interview with the Cut, in which she seems to compare herself to Nelson Mandela, and explain why she should stop trying to play the victim and the hero at the same time. We discuss how the American Academy of Pediatrics is still saying that kids should be wearing masks in schools despite all the evidence to the contrary. We look at the devastating long-term speech issues that forced mask-wearing has created for children. Lastly, we'll take a look at two women who claim that if you have a problem with your spouse going to strip clubs, you're the problem. We explain why this is a terrible, sad take.---Timecodes:[02:17] BYU volleyball race hoax[19:09] Meghan Markle's interview with The Cut[26:05] Masks[41:01] Should you let your spouse go to a strip club?---Today's Sponsors: Cozy Earth — go to CozyEarth.com/ALLIE & use promo code 'ALLIE' at checkout to save 35% off your order!Netsuite — go to NetSuite.com/ALLIE to get your one-of-a-kind flexible financing program.EdenPURE — get 3 Thunderstorm Air Purifiers for under $200 at EdenPureDeals.com, use promo code 'ALLIE'!Good Ranchers — change the way you shop for meat today by visiting GoodRanchers.com/ALLIE & use promo code 'ALLIE' to save $30 off your order and lock in your price!---Today's Sponsors: Washington Post: "BYU bans fan, relocates volleyball match after racist slurs, threats" https://www.washingtonpost.com/sports/2022/08/27/byu-duke-volleyball-racist-incident/Washington Examiner: “Media go all-in on apparent volleyball racism hoax at BYU” https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/media-go-all-in-on-apparent-volleyball-racism-hoax-at-byuDaily Wire: "Meghan Markle Under Fire For Story Comparing Her Marriage To Nelson Mandela’s Release From Prison" https://www.dailywire.com/news/meghan-markle-under-fire-for-story-comparing-her-marriage-to-nelson-mandelas-release-from-prisonThe Cut: "Meghan Markle on Her New Life in California" https://www.thecut.com/article/meghan-markle-profile-interview.htmlABC WPBF: "Palm Beach therapist sees increase in children's speech delays during COVID-19" https://www.wpbf.com/article/palm-beach-covid-therapist-speech-delays/38189805#NBC: "Babies learn to speak by lip-reading, could offer autism clues" https://www.nbcnews.com/health/health-news/babies-learn-speak-lip-reading-could-offer-autism-clues-flna1c6436520Nature: "Titanium dioxide particles frequently present in face masks intended for general use require regulatory control" https://www.nature.com/articles/s41598-022-06605-w---Buy Allie's book, You're Not Enough (& That's Okay): Escaping the Toxic Culture of Self-Love: https://alliebethstuckey.com/bookRelatable merchandise – use promo code 'ALLIE10' for a discount: https://shop.blazemedia.com/collections/allie-stuckey

​Today you'll get a look into the minds of the Relatable crew. We discuss topics you proposed on Allie's Instagram live, including airport dress codes, our favorite conspiracy theories, what we were like in high school, and ask the very important question: Do aliens exist?

Today we're talking all things revolving around the Baptist church. Popular Southern Baptist pastor Matt Chandler announced over the weekend that he's temporarily stepping down from his role as lead pastor of his church in the aftermath of an inappropriate online relationship. We discuss his impact on the church during his rise in popularity and why this seems to be a good example of how a church should discipline pastors. This comes at the same time that the Department of Justice investigates the Southern Baptist Convention. We take a look at this and ask the question: Is this investigation legitimate? Then, we discuss a recent Presbyterian podcast in which one contributor claimed Baptist theology caused transgenderism. We finish off with a quick comparison between Baptist theology and Presbyterian theology.---Today's Sponsors: Annie's Kit Clubs — all subscriptions are month-to-month, and you can cancel anytime!

Today we're discussing Biden's student loan debt plan and the progressive Christian argument about its morality. Many of these professing Christians have made the argument that the government "forgiving" student loan debt is akin to Jesus paying for our sins, but is this a fair comparison? We explain why it's not and give the biblical evidence to prove it. Then, last week, Libs of TikTok released audio from a phone call in which Children's National Hospital admitted to performing "gender-affirming" hysterectomies on minors 16 years old and younger. We discuss the backlash from mainstream media and her ban from Twitter in the aftermath. Then, we'll react to Lizzo's VMA acceptance speech, in which she claimed to be part of the "oppressed."---Today's Sponsors: My Patriot Supply specializes in long-term emergency food storage.

Today we’re joined by Jeremiah Roberts and Andrew Soncrant, hosts of the podcast "Cultish," to talk all things cults and the occult. We look into Gen Z’s obsession with manifesting, tarot cards and “WitchTok,” and what the Bible really says about the spiritual realm. Then, we explore whether we should really be paying attention to signs and symbols. We discuss demonic possession and oppression and what that really looks like, in contrast to movies and television – such as "Stranger Things" or "Doctor Strange" – that portray occult content.Check out the Cultish website and Instagram!---Today's Sponsors: Carly Jean Los Angeles — use promo code 'ALLIEB' to save 20% off your first order at CarlyJeanLosAngeles.com!Annie's Kit Clubs — all subscriptions are month-to-month, & you can cancel anytime!

Today we're joined by Sean Fitzgerald, YouTuber and commentator, to discuss the ever-increasing crime rates in big cities, soft-on-crime policies, and the Innocence Project. We talk some specific cases from Jose Alba to Rodney Reed, and how those have affected the criminal justice system as a whole. We also dive into the hypocrisy of some well-known social justice warriors who exploit the names of dead black people in order to raise funds for their cases, only to use that money for personal gain. We talk bail reform, and ask the question: do criminal prosecutors actually care about justice?---Today's Sponsors: Annie's Kit Clubs — all subscriptions are month-to-month, and you can cancel anytime!

Today we’re starting off with news of Fauci’s announcement that he’s finally stepping down from government service (but still not retiring). Then, we take a look at Sam Harris’ recent comments on heaven, in which he suggested he doesn’t know where heaven is supposed to be, “given we have multiple telescopes up there beaming back information.” These, along with his wild comments on Hunter Biden and the election, went viral for good reason. We look at some scripture relevant to Harris’ statement. Then, we discuss the ongoing phenomenon of women who flippantly and proudly joke about their abortions and why we need to stop acting as if all women who get abortions are victims.---Today's Sponsors: Genucel — go to genucel.com/ALLIE and use code "ALLIE" at checkout for a special discount.Covenant Eyes — go to coveyes.com/ALLIE to try it FREE for 30 days!Blaze Socks — get your Blaze patriotic socks at BlazeSocks.com, use promo code 'ALLIESOCKS'!---Show Links:NIH: "Statement by Anthony S.

Today we're joined by Monica Cline – public speaker, consultant, and founder of It Takes a Family – to talk about the dangers of comprehensive sex education for kids and how parents should be involved in their kids' education. Monica started out as a family planning educator for young people at Planned Parenthood, where she learned the tactics that end up encouraging kids to think about graphic sexual activities. We discuss why comprehensive sex education at a young age can actually pressure kids into having sex rather than prevent them and why "consent education" for kids shouldn't exist when kids aren't capable of sexual consent. Then we talk about the importance of parental roles in this sphere – how kids need boundaries and clarity from their parents and how many governmental institutions, as well as Planned Parenthood, see parents as "barriers to service." Then, Monica shares her story of how she had her son and came to Christ.---Today's Sponsors: PublicSq. — download the PublicSq app from the App Store or Google Play, create a free account, anx begin your search for freedom-loving businesses!Annie's Kit Clubs — all subscriptions are month-to-month, & you can cancel anytime!

Today we're starting with a quick follow-up to yesterday's Boston Children's Hospital story. After many conservative outlets reported on the hospital's insane promotional videos (which we talked about in the last episode), BCH released a statement claiming it has received harassment and threats. We take a look at this new statement and a crazy article from NBC News blaming "far-right" activists for this supposed harassment, as well as hear from some commentators who are getting to the bottom of whether this hospital really performs gender surgery on minors. Then, we're discussing a Minneapolis teachers' union that demanded white teachers be fired before black or brown teachers and why this has even deeper implications than its obvious racism. We listen to Kamala Harris' recent bizarre explanation of equity and give a little shout-out to the Well Church Fresno, which is currently receiving lots of hate for choosing to preach about Biblical sexuality and gender.---Timecodes:[05:05] Boston Children's Hospital followup[20:03] Minneapolis white teachers laid off first[37:10] Thoughts on "The Last White Man"[41:04] Kamala Harris' equity comments[45:38] The Well Church biblical sexuality event (Allie's response to Bekah's Instagram video is here)[50:30] Feel good video---Today's Sponsors: ExpressVPN — have more anonymity online.
