Ever wonder how you can make right decisions in an age filled with misinformation? Lost in all the politicization of facts and standards? The Alex Speiser show digs into unchanging principles that guided the West into the leading, moral force for the world. Alex unashamedly and truthfully tackles each principle in light of current and historical events so you can have the knowledge you need to guide America's future in the right direction.
One commandment that is often overlooked is the first. The impact it has on your happiness and the outcome of your life as well as generations after you is too important to ignore. We encounter many opportunities to worship and serve at the altar of Mother Nature from Climate Change discipleship; as well as money, race and many other deceptive and hollow gods and religious sects that come from the world.
We finish the episode with the worst attempt at accents and impressions. Don't judge too harshly.
“Now there are those among us who are trying to serve the Lord without offending the devil.” - Marion G. Romney.
We discuss this concept with current examples and its implications. We make ourselves weak and susceptible when we try not to offend the devil.
Way too much excitement on the show Alex, Rob and Kurt, the infamous, voice-actor roommate.
We discuss how, despite similar beliefs between Christians and Progressives, the most pivotal difference that changes all outcomes is who they identify as their Savior.

While people discover natural methods for better health in this world, when will they re-discover the natural benefits of faith?
Faith in God is more than hocus-pocus, it is fortifying mentally, emotionally and spiritually. Here's how people in the darkest abyss can find an anchor to their soul.

We went to protest the "family-friendly" drag show in Provo, Utah that took place in a local park. What we saw and how we felt when we walked away is surprising.

Consuming social media can cause serious mental health challenges, such as depression. We have generations that are struggling to living purposefully as they feel weighed down mentally. Alex and Rob discuss how you could simply and powerfully transform your mental health with cold water (among other easy-to-apply methods).
The principle to understand is that our bodies and spirits are interconnected so deeply that if we don't take of our bodies and minds, it can affect our spiritual health as well.
How do you draw a line in the sand between being involved internationally (to stop the spread of evil) and staying out of conflicts and sparing the lives of your people?
How can we reinstate the founder's principle of being friendly to all nations and yet entangled in none of them?
The answer is somewhat straightforward. The problem is we build up our enemies and weaken our own nation.
Lastly, we discuss Amazon's 'Rings of Power' and the diversity quotas that take away the invigorating power of merit.
When one side of the political aisle takes its abuse of power too far it makes it very likely for the opposition to retaliate and that's a scenario we don't want to happen.
When this sort of thing happens we have to up our game to de-escalate and resolve the abuse of power.
When you see someone who literally is on their death bed it puts things in perspective. If you knew you had only hours left, what would you think about? What matters most? Does it matter to believe in life after death?
Does it matter that Dave Rubin is going to have a child? Why not legalize sex work? Can we really live and let live and still have a good society?
We took a dive into the serious consideration of choices and consequences. It's easy to produce reasons and excuses to make anything permissible. But it takes courage and wisdom to defend truth and avoid being a useful idiot that makes way for our societal decline.
If you define "separation of church and state" the way Progressives do then it makes absolutely no sense contextually, implicitly and historically - here's how! And here's the truth!
For this Independence Day Episode, we focus on the foundational principle of equal rights and how the implications are totally lost of most people. America's grand experiment fails once we exclude God from the equation, and here's why.
Both me (Alex) and Rob are sick, but we wanted to touch base. We kept it very short and somewhat on topic. Excuse the immature humor, but enjoy it too. Head colds and podcasting among two wacky persons makes for a strange outcome.
Message I want to impart: Keep faith in the future and let the Lord help you fight your battles so giant difficulties are easily triumphed.

Interview with Mrs. Barylanne Phillips
Barylanne, or "Anne", has been from one side of the spiritual/political spectrum to the other. In college she found herself indoctrinated in Critical Race Theory and even worked in Hollywood. But, along the way she came to find Christ and discovered a whole new morality and a new way of thinking and living.
Currently she is an influencer on social media, helping people center themselves on the simple, yet powerful Christian-centered ideals of marriage and family first and finding joy in God-given roles such as wife and homemaker.
You can find her on Instagram at instagram.com/mrsberylannephillips/ and YouTube at youtube.com/c/MrsBerylannePhillips

Evil wants us to see us in the context of tribal identity because it makes it easier for evil to control us. Tribes foster to tribalistic behavior, and ultimately the focus on tribes will ensure our mutual destruction.
