The Ubiquitous Fundamentalist Authoritarian Theocratic Religious Extremist

The topic today is about religion on this Good Friday. Trump selling campy bibles and comparing himself to Jesus. Also, John discusses how in most religions - the extreme religious right are more hateful and prejudicial - the further to the right they are. Then, he interviews Dave Zirin who is the sports editor for The Nation, a weekly progressive magazine dedicated to politics and culture. They discuss sports betting, soccer difficulties, and politics. Then, winding it up, John welcomes back Simon Moya-Smith and Julie Francella for their Native Voices segment. They chat about indigenous studies and native culture. Plus they play another round of "Did You Know?" to close it up.
