The Sundance Kid Fades Over the Horizon with a Magnificent Sunset

John discusses the life of legendary actor and director Robert Redford who passed away at the age of 89. He also talks about FBI Director Kash Patel who clashed with the Senate Judiciary Committee, snapping and smirking at Senate Democrats who questioned his leadership and challenged him on the agency’s failures. He plays many clips from the heated exchanges. Then, John interviews Garnet Henderson who is an investigative reporter specializing in abortion access, anti-rights disinformation, and other intersections of health, policy, and culture. They talk about a new lawsuit in Texas where a woman claims her boyfriend (a US Marine) got her pregnant and then put 10 abortion pills in her hot chocolate when she refused to have an abortion. Next, he speaks with Matthew Boedy who is a professor in the English department at the University of North Georgia. Targeted by Turning Point USA in 2016 and listed on its infamous “professor watchlist,” Boedy has emerged as one of the foremost experts on Turning Point USA and its founder and CEO Charlie Kirk, exposing its role in Christian nationalism and the threat to democracy it poses. They talk about John's new book Separation of Church and Hate: A Sane Person's Guide to Taking Back the Bible from Fundamentalists, Fascists, and Flock-Fleecing Frauds and Matthew's new book "The Seven Mountains Mandate: Exposing the Dangerous Plan to Christianize America and Destroy Democracy". Then finally, John welcomes back Comedy Daddy Keith Price to chat with the Evil Army of the Night about Kash Patel, Donald Trump, and Robert Redford.
