Relatable with Allie Beth Stuckey

Today we're joined by Daniel and Kelly Crawford of Abel Speaks, an organization that supports families who have chosen to carry a child with a life-limiting diagnosis. They share their own story of finding out their baby son Abel had trisomy 18 and how doctors were quick to suggest abortion, deeming their son incompatible with life. We discuss how they processed the news and how important community grounded in compassion and truth was for them during this time. Kelly explains the birth experience and how much time they were given with baby Abel beyond what they were told to expect. We also discuss their motivation to help other families in similar situations and what the gaps in support are for families of children with life-limiting diagnoses.---Timecodes:(01:16) Abel's story(06:08) What is Trisomy 18?(16:30) Finding support(26:40) Finding a provider they trusted(29:08) Abel's birth and last days(44:40) 'Abel Speaks'(01:06:05) Allie's VBAC---Today's Sponsors:Range Leather — highest quality leather, age-old techniques and all backed up with a “forever guarantee."

Today we're talking about the newest controversy surrounding Ballerina Farm, or Hannah Neeleman, an influencer who sparked debate after posting about preparing for the Mrs. World pageant 12 days post-partum. We discuss whether this type of content is harmful to women and how we should see ourselves in comparison to what we see on social media. Then, what is the "Fed Is Best" movement, and what propaganda are we seeing among those who argue formula is just as good for babies as breast milk? We examine this and reveal the truth about breast milk. We also take a look at a Babylon Bee joke that has even fellow conservatives up in arms and why we all need to learn to take a joke again.---Timecodes:(00:41) Beth Moore recap(02:56) The Babylon Bee's Vivek joke(13:15) Ballerina Farms(28:30) 'Fed is Best'(41:44) Benefits of breastmilk(58:35) Encouragement---Today's Sponsors:Good Ranchers — get 10% OFF your box today at GoodRanchers.com – make sure to use code 'ALLIE' when you subscribe.A'Del — go to adelnaturalcosmetics.com and enter promo code "ALLIE" for 25% off your first order!Jase Medical — get up to a year’s worth of many of your prescription medications delivered in advance. Go to JaseMedical.com today and use promo code “ALLIE".Carly Jean Los Angeles — use promo code RELATABLE25 for $25 off an order of $125 or more, or RELATABLE50 for $50 off an order of $200 or more at CarlyJeanLosAngeles.com!---Links:Allie's response to Beth Moore: https://x.com/conservmillen/status/1747459064391491639?s=20Evie: "Ballerina Farm Is Facing Major Controversy Over Her Postpartum Beauty Pageant—Here's Everything You Need To Know" https://www.eviemagazine.com/post/ballerina-farms-postpartum-beauty-pageant-raises-controversyJohns Hopkins Medicine: "Breast Milk Is Best" https://www.hopkinsmedicine.org/health/conditions-and-diseases/breastfeeding-your-baby/breast-milk-is-the-best-milk---Relevant Episodes:Ep 934 | Beth Moore Has a Message for Trump Voters | Guest: Steve Deace https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/ep-934-ready-or-not-here-the-election-comes-guest-steve-deace/id1359249098?i=1000641888019Ep 931 | Out: Trad Trend, In: Biblical Womanhood https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/ep-931-trad-wives-motherhood-is-not-an-aesthetic/id1359249098?i=1000641222336Ep 809 | The 'Trad' Movement Isn’t Biblical https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/ep-809-the-trad-movement-isnt-biblical/id1359249098?i=1000614038103---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 Learn more about your ad choices.

Today we're looking at what happened in the Iowa caucuses yesterday and hear from fellow BlazeTV host Steve Deace of the "Steve Deace Show" on his breakdown of what might be happening in the eyes of voters and what's to come in this election season. We also talk about the reactions to Trump's victory in Iowa, including Beth Moore's commentary on Trump voters. We take a look at the three major candidates and their views on abortion and transgender ideology and explain why it's so important to vote for an actual conservative who is consistently standing up for truth.

Today we're joined by conservative commentator Clarkson Lawson to debate the issue of surrogacy and theocratic conservatism. We start off with a discussion on surrogacy and the ethics surrounding it. Is surrogacy ever justified, and what are the issues we need to consider before condoning it? We look at how much more liberal countries have banned surrogacy and what this might mean when it comes to ethics. We also debate whether pro-life means pro-conception by any means possible and how important the mother-baby bond actually is. Then, are religious theocratic conservatives ruining the GOP, or is the foundation of Christianity necessary for conservatism to exist at all?---Timecodes:(00:58) Intro to surrogacy issue(05:10) Capitalism of surrogacy(09:48) Allie’s position / “will to live”(15:50) Ethical consequences / mother-baby bond(29:30) Gay couples and surrogacy(39:00) Gifts vs. rights(42:11) Are religious theocratic conservatives ruining the GOP?---Today's Sponsors:We Heart Nutrition — nourish your body with research-backed ingredients in your vitamins at WeHeartNutrition.com and use promo code ALLIE for 20% off.Naturally It's Clean — visit https://naturallyitsclean.com/allie and use promo code "ALLIE" to receive 15% off your order.

Arden Young, investigative journalist from Sound Investigations, discusses her shocking exposé on Pornhub. She reveals the platform's addictive nature, awareness of rapists and pedophiles, and the company's targeting of pedophiles in advertising. The podcast also covers the response to the investigation, ID verification laws, and the impact of pornography on children. Arden shares her faith journey and how it led her to uncover this darkness.

Today we're starting off with a theory that the "trad" movement is ending just like any other trend. We explain why this movement was never rooted in biblical womanhood, and while there is nothing inherently wrong with the way "trad wives" live, it's also possible to be a God-glorifying woman without the dresses and homemade sourdough bread. Then, rapper Lil Nas X has entered his "Christian era," which seems to involve blasphemous imagery of himself as Christ and a giant troll campaign. We look at his sordid history of satanic imagery and explain how, while Lil Nas X is dead in his sin, he is no more lost than any other lost person we should pray for. We also talk about the U.S. National Junior Hockey Team's heartwarming singing of the national anthem, the Fort Worth explosion, the ongoing migrant crisis, and a popular conspiracy theory that might make some of you question everything.---Timecodes:(01:17) Trad trend(17:25) Lil Nas X(30:20) US hockey team sings National Anthem(32:27) Fort Worth explosion / migrants(36:28) Moon landing theories---Today's Sponsors:Seven Weeks Coffee — Seven Weeks is a pro-life coffee company with a simple mission: DONATE 10% of every sale to pregnancy care centers across America.

Aaron Renn discusses the decline of Christianity in America, the tipping point in 2014, and the negative view of Christianity in society. They explore the changing views on gay marriage and race issues among Republican candidates, the evangelical response to Donald Trump, and the impact of cultural Christianity. They also touch on the challenges of sharing the gospel in today's society.

Today we're starting off with an encouragement for your Monday that a lot can happen in one year and how we can hope for the future. We take a look at a video Donald Trump shared on his Truth Social account called "God Made Trump," which we argue is actually pretty blasphemous. Then, Christianity Today is at it again with an article on pronoun politeness, arguing that the issue is complicated and nuanced. We explain why it's not and look at some of Christianity Today's other terrible takes from the past few years. We finish off with a look at the best and worst Golden Globes outfits, as well as Jim Gaffigan's shocking joke that called out Hollywood.---Timecodes:(02:50) Monday encouragement(12:57) 'God Made Trump'(24:35) Christianity Today pronoun article(38:33) Christianity Today's other articles(43:45) Ohio governor on trans surgeries(46:05) Jim Gaffigan's Golden Globes joke(48:55) Golden Globe outfits---Today's Sponsors:A'Del — go to adelnaturalcosmetics.com and enter promo code "ALLIE" for 25% off your first order!Good Ranchers — get 10% OFF your box today at GoodRanchers.com – make sure to use code 'ALLIE' when you subscribe.We Heart Nutrition — nourish your body with research-backed ingredients in your vitamins at WeHeartNutrition.com and use promo code ALLIE for 20% off.Jase Medical — get up to a year’s worth of many of your prescription medications delivered in advance. Go to JaseMedical.com today and use promo code “ALLIE".---Links:Blaze Media: "Ohio Gov.

Today, we're joined by Daisy Strongin, wife, mother and de-transitioner, for part two of her story. We pick up with the complex feelings that accompanied her parents' validation of her "new gender" and some of the red flags she felt ultimately led her to de-transition. She shares how she felt after her double mastectomy and why she ended up regretting it. We discuss some of the conservative podcasts she listened to at the time, including this one, that helped change her mind on transgenderism and abortion, and Daisy shares her spiritual journey toward fully de-transitioning and accepting Christ.---Timecodes:(00:50) Parental reactions(03:10) Double mastectomy aftermath(07:58) Questioning the decision(13:20) Spiritual transformation(20:25) Breaking point(25:10) Politics(27:50) Reading the Bible & believing---Today's Sponsors:EveryLife — the only premium baby brand that is unapologetically pro-life.

Today, we're joined by Daisy Strongin, wife, mother and de-transitioner, to hear her story of believing she was a boy, medically transitioning, and then ultimately finding Christ. We start off with Daisy's first feelings of being uncomfortable in her body and how she came to believe she wasn't a girl. She explains how chronically online she was growing up and how this connected her to online groups of girls who were also questioning their gender. We discuss what her parents thought of her newfound "identity" once she started calling herself a boy, and Daisy explains how easy it was to get both testosterone and a double mastectomy.
