L8Night Radio: Recent Episodes
Alan Patrick & Justin Dutton
Headline: A rise in LGBTQ ideology and self-identification
Headspace: Are we doing church wrong? Why are my most faithful kids unable to comfortably discuss the Gospel?
Headache: The unloving act of pastor gossip
In this episode:
- The recent shooting at a private Christian school in Nashville, and how far too many of us jump to reactions and form conclusions without waiting for all of the facts.
- Why has there been a rise in shootings committed by people identifying as trans?
- What responsibility does the church have in situations like this? Can we play any role in preventing these tragedies in the future?
- A conversation I had with a Catholic student hoping to convert me.
This week, Alan and Justin discuss a few of the great What Ifs of life...and College Football. Justice is on the Headlines this week: Insurrectionists and Backwoods Southern Lawyers. Back to Football for the headaches.
After its not-so-warm reception in conservative Christian circles, Alan and Justin take a look at the "He Gets Us" ad campaign. Is it as politically driven as some think it is?
The NFL is a "modern day gladiator sport," but what exactly does that mean? The recent on-field incident where CPR was administered to Bills DB Damar Hamlin has caused many to discuss the dangers of the sport once again, which seems just a bit performative to us.
Also in this episode, we talk a little about our recent headaches, like college football kickers. They get a ton of the credit (or blame), but are they even football players? Alan has a hot take.
Listen along as we talk about all the things right and wrong with the world of football and Christianity
In this episode, Justin and Alan discuss a couple of recent headlines including a prominent unexpected death in college football and a serious problem of decreased productivity in the American workforce this year
Additionally, we get into a conversation about holiday traditions, Santa Claus (warning don't listen with your Santa-believing kids around), and what we're looking forward to this holiday season!
In this episode Justin and Alan catch up after a few weeks off.
Topics discussed:
Headlines: Respect for Marriage Bill, US Men's soccer, Brittney Griner.
Headspace: What does it mean to be a conservative? The gap between Republicans and Conservatives becoming more apparent.
Headaches: Friends that ghost on you when you want to make fun of them.
Justin said some unspeakable things today. Also on today's pod:
-
the red wave that wasn't
-
the art of stranger danger
-
the thorn in my (Alan) side every time I run

In this SIXTH episode of Season 2 of the "Back At It" Podcast, your hosts Alan and Justin spend some time talking about the greatest disappointment of Justin's life: none other than the South Carolina Gamecocks. In addition, we take a look at the college football playoff and ask if it's possible that the playoff is ruining the sport. Spoiler Alert: We Disagree!
In our headlines section, we dig into the recent (or not so recent?) news story of Chippy the Chipotle Chipmaking Robot. Chippy won't be replacing a huge number of the workforce, but is this a slippery slope we need to be aware of? Alan has strong feelings.
Lastly, we wrap up with our biggest headaches...in this case, a literal one that's been plaguing Justin all day! Also, Alan gets thrown a curveball of a question, and a debate is had over whether a famous person actually existed. You don't want to miss this one!
We're continuing with our new format of "headline, headspace, and headache," where we take a look at a recent news story or two, talk about what's been on our minds personally, and rant a little about the things that we just can't explain.
Headline(s): What is America's Responsibility to Brittney Griner? Can/Should Christians support the death penalty? How should Christians think about and respond to these questions?
Headspace: What's the point of Revelation? Does its meaning impact how Christians should see the world today? Alan and Justin discuss their views.
Headache: Alan's biggest headache--which we discover quite accidentally in this episode--is when Justin can't pick up on Alan's cues while recording!
Stacy Abrams says abortion is the key to solving inflation, a similar solution to the one posed by Jonathan Swift nearly 300 years ago! The only problem: his argument was entirely satirical, while Ms Abrams seems to fully believe she's found the answer!
Justin asks the question, "what does it take to change a culture?"
Alan lets us all know how he feels about the ridiculous world of added fees
We talk some football, some life, and as always, we share a few laughs.
