THINGS HIDDEN 15: India Edition
How do we see the hidden victims of violence in Indian mythology? What are some of the sacrificial underpinnings of modern-day institutions? How has Christ infected the Indian psyche? Join David Gornoski, Shannon Braswell, and Surit Dasgupta as they tackle these questions while trying to understand some of the major differences between an archaic society that hides its victims under the veneer of grandiose narratives and a cross-haunted society that causes its inhabitants to struggle greatly in their search for scapegoats.

Remembering Herman Cain, Weldon Angelos Secures Loon's Release - A Neighbor's Choice
In this episode, David Gornoski pays tribute to ex-presidential candidate Herman Cain. Picking up from where Cain left off, David says that "we should have a 0-0-0 plan--no income tax, no corporate tax, and no sales tax." How do we get out of the McWoke lie of corporate Communism? The answer lies in recognizing Jesus' transformation of history by defending the person from the mob. Also, joining David Gornoski is Weldon Angelos to discuss the release of rapper Loon who was serving 55 years in federal prison for a drug-related crime.

Why Does BLM Seek to Dismantle the "Western Nuclear Family?" - A Neighbor's Choice
Is BLM concerned only with police brutality and racism as many naively claim? Bradley Thomas, founder of EraseTheState.com, joins David Gornoski to discuss Black Lives Matter's anti-family agenda that originates from Marxism. Thomas traces BLM's mission back to Engels' observation that the concept of private property is rooted in the family. The Marxist project, Thomas says, culminates with state-enforced collectivization that replaces the family unit. Listen to the full episode for Bradley Thomas' exposé of BLM and David Gornoski's deconstruction of pandemic censorship and authoritarianism.
