| Can Christianity and Psychology Be Friends? | 26 Nov 2024 | 00:22:29 | |
Can psychology and Christianity truly coexist, or are they irreconcilable at their core? Join me as I tackle this provocative question and challenge the very foundation of what it means to be a "Christian psychologist." With a background that shifted from liberal ideologies to a firm Christian worldview, I share my unique perspective as a self-proclaimed heretic psychologist. This episode questions the compatibility of secular psychological theories with biblical principles, highlighting the philosophical nature of psychology and its often unproven claims. By scrutinizing the concept of Christian psychology, I aim to reveal the contradictions between these two worlds and suggest a re-evaluation of where we seek our truths.

| Because I Said So | 05 Nov 2024 | 00:28:14 | |
What if the parenting advice we've trusted for decades is actually leading us astray? On this episode of "Because I Said So," I challenge the modern parenting mantras that have become gospel since the 1960s. Born from a period of societal upheaval, these psychological theories have encouraged us to sideline the wisdom of our elders in favor of expert opinions lacking real-world experience. Join me as I share my own journey from a liberal college student to a conservative advocate for traditional parenting, exploring how this shift has impacted families, including my own, and questioning whether these expert-led paradigms have contributed more harm than good.

| What, Exactly, Is “Good Mental Health”? | 29 Oct 2024 | 00:37:16 | |
What if the mainstream narrative about mental health is all wrong? Join me as I challenge the conventional wisdom that conditions like depression and anxiety are biological malfunctions. In this eye-opening episode, we dig into the financial motivations behind these misconceptions and explore how emotional states can become deeply ingrained habits. Through candid conversations with psychiatrists, I reveal why understanding the origins of these emotional states might not be as crucial as recognizing them as changeable habits.

Could the wisdom of our grandparents hold the key to better-behaved children and healthier young minds? Join me on a journey back to the 1950s to uncover the secrets of a generation of obedient, tantrum-free kids. Through a compelling narrative, I juxtapose the serene child-rearing landscape of my youth with the emotionally tumultuous terrain of today's parenting.

| The Terrible Twos In Perpetuity | 02 Apr 2024 | 00:33:03 | |
Is modern parenting doing more harm than good? In this episode, I unravel the complex layers of how today's parenting practices may be inadvertently extending childhood well into the adult years. I take a hard look at the practices that label typical two-year-old behaviors as disorders and challenge the authority of parents, replacing time-tested discipline with emotion-driven reactions. By sharing my insights from inside the psychology profession and from my own creative musings, this episode proposes a reevaluation of parenting norms and mental health rhetoric. Join me as we confront these critical issues head-on, advocating for a return to principles that instill resilience and respect within the family fabric.

| Dr. Jordan Petersen and I Are Not Twin Brothers of Different Mothers | 26 Mar 2024 | 00:21:46 | |
Could the ideas of Dr. Jordan Petersen be leading us down a treacherous path? Join me as I scrutinize the philosophies of a figure who has captivated millions with his interpretations of the Bible, the question of God's existence, and the application of Darwinian evolution to human development. In our latest episode, we dissect the 'Introduction to the Idea of God', where I outline my reservations about the coherence of Petersen's thought and the risks his teachings may pose. As we tread through these intellectually charged waters, you'll gain a fresh perspective on the undercurrents that may be shaping modern thought in ways that are not immediately apparent.

| Scary Parenting: Part Two | 13 Feb 2024 | 00:20:51 | |
Forget everything modern psychology has spoon-fed us; I'm here to resurrect the time-tested, authoritative methods that breed not tyrants, but well-adjusted, respectful, and ultimately happier kids. This episode is a daring call to reconsider the role of obedience and fear in child-rearing, as I dissect the misplaced belief in permissive techniques and set the record straight on why a little bit of 'scary' goes a long way in fostering desirable behaviors.

| Fearful Parenting: The American Mother's Dilemma | 06 Feb 2024 | 00:16:35 | |
I recently had a conversation with an Austrian woman that turned my understanding of American parenting on its head. She shed light on the stark contrast between our fear-tinged approach and the straightforward, instinct-led style of Austrian parents. In this episode, I unpack the origins and impacts of the American psychological parenting revolution of the '60s and '70s and how it has left today's mothers wrestling with a host of fears.

| Are Women to Blame? | 30 Jan 2024 | 00:47:18 | |
Are women - mothers, that is - primarily responsible for America’s child-rearing problems? Well, um, uh, in a sense, yes. Mind you, America’s child-rearing problems are primarily the fault of America’s mental health industry, which is nothing but junk science, but if the problems caused by America’s mental health industry are going to be solved, women - mothers, that is - are going to have to take the lead.

| Spitting Images and Gentle Fails: A Bold Exploration of Parenting, Homelessness, and Racial Dynamics | 03 Oct 2023 | 00:27:17 | |
Who would've thought that something as simple as spitting could tarnish a man's reputation, or that the well-intentioned concept of gentle parenting could potentially do more harm than good? I boldly delve into these intriguing topics in the first half of our discussion. In the latter half of my discussion, I challenge the preconceptions of homelessness and a racially prejudiced nation, taking a hard look at homelessness, crime, and racial dynamics in San Francisco. I'll explore the links between fatherless homes and antisocial behavior, the perception of the rich as looting targets, and the need for a spokesperson within the black community. Using Savannah, Georgia as a case study, I offer a fresh perspective on the racial dynamics in America. Prepare to have your views challenged in this thought-provoking episode.

| The Adoption Narrative Sham | 19 Sep 2023 | 00:27:51 | |
Have you ever stopped to question the narratives spun by mental health professionals or the sensationalism surrounding adoption? This episode of 'Because I Said So' invites you to do just that. I'm challenging the idea that adoption is an inherently traumatic experience, laden with existential crises and psychological pitfalls. With the story of my friend Pat, who discovered he was adopted at 19 and reacted with nonchalance, I challenge this sensationalized narrative and question if it's a mere invention by mental health professionals to create a cash stream.I also explore the adoption specialist cabal, who often push narratives leading adoptive parents to feel guilty and inadequate. These narratives, such as 'bonding' with a biological mother's heartbeat, can negatively impact a child's behavior and trigger parental anxiety. Hear about the Romanian orphans adopted by American parents who thrived against the odds and debunk the theory that bonding must occur at birth. Stay tuned as I conclude with an invitation to join my mission - sparking a retro revolution in child-rearing.

| Normalizing Pedophilia: The Inevitable Next Step in the Long Game | 06 Jun 2023 | 00:27:43 | |
One of my favorite country songs is Waylon Jennings' "The World's Gone Crazy Cotillion." Waylon was a prophet, for sure. If I was to select a theme song for this podcast, "TWGCC" would be it. The lesson to be learned is, never say, "That would never happen." It's happening.

| The Good Mommy Club | 23 May 2023 | 00:23:27 | |
The GMC, not to be confused with the automobile and truck manufacturer, is a stealth organization that does not exist in the minds of its members - mommies. The GMC is the most oppressive force in the entire history of human womanhood, one that reduces otherwise intelligent and creative women to flesh-and-blood vending machines that their children abuse when they fail to cough up "the goods" on demand. Worse, this is also about women oppressing other women, and themselves! Knowledge is the antidote. Listen to this and gain knowledge. This is a public episode.

| The Transgender Charade | 09 May 2023 | 00:28:07 | |
The transgender movement is not about males competing in female sports or drag shows or males demanding to use women's bathrooms. Those are distractions. The transgender movement is an attack on objective truth, theism, and parents' rights. The term "gender-affirming care" is the oxymoron of the century, if not of all time. Be prepared!
