In this special crossover, George and Simon step out of the host chairs and into the guest seats on The Orthodox Spirit with LA-based podcaster Mike Mac. Mike digs into the heart of why The Salt Podcast was born—from George’s conviction to evangelize online, to the duo’s vision of sharing hope and meaningful conversations in a world flooded with empty content.

Together they explore why people are turning back to God, the importance of authentic church community, and the mission behind their work. The episode also takes a powerful turn as Mike shares his own testimony: from overdosing on a jail floor to a radical encounter with God that transformed his life. Now restored, he preaches Christ and reaches thousands through his own podcast.

This is a raw and faith-filled conversation about perseverance, calling, and the power of God’s grace to redeem the darkest of moments.

What happens when your father preaches Jesus so boldly that the Muslim Brotherhood plotted to kidnap his family? In this raw and unfiltered conversation, Pastor Martin Sedra shares the reality of growing up in the Middle East, the clash between Christianity and Islam, and the supernatural protection that covered his family through it all.

We dive into:

• The dangers of preaching Christ in the face of Islamic extremism.

• Why Pastor Martin says not all Muslims are violent, but all Islam is violent.

• His straight talk on marriage, family, and raising children in a culture at war with truth.

• The legacy of faith and courage he wants to leave behind.

• His unapologetic views on pride parades, family values, and why Christians must multiply.

• Why evangelism must start at home—and why prayer, Scripture, and boldness are non-negotiable.

This is one of our boldest episodes yet—challenging, confronting, and filled with conviction. Pastor Martin doesn’t hold back on Islam, faith, marriage, or culture, calling Christians to rise up, live without compromise, and preserve the world for Christ.

In this raw and redemptive conversation, Karina Graham opens up to George Iskander and Simon Thomas-Gilto about her journey through drugs, abuse, and the adult industry, and how an encounter with Christ completely transformed her life.

This episode dives deep into:

• Life before faith and the desperate search for validation

• The seductive trap of OnlyFans and the lies behind “easy money”

• Addiction, relapse, and demonic bondage

• The supernatural encounter that brought her freedom
• How God is now using Karina to reach others trapped in darkness

⚠️ Viewer discretion is advised.

McKinnon was diagnosed with neurofibromatosis type 2 at 16 after a routine concussion scan revealed brain tumours. Since then, she's endured four brain surgeries, 30 rounds of radiation, a grand mal seizure, complete hearing loss, facial paralysis, a cerebral stroke, and the devastating loss of her father to suicide. Through it all, she went from "I can't do this" to "I'll figure it out."

In this powerful conversation, McKinnon opens up about her anger toward God, the miracle moments that rebuilt her faith, navigating love and career while deaf, and why a meaningful life matters more than a pain-free one. This is faith that endures and joy that survives suffering.
