  • Always a Pleasure

    So glad I discovered Bret from his many appearances on the JRE podcast (especially during the COVID years). The dynamic between him and Heather is wonderfully strong, and mentally helps restores my faith in humanity. I’m an atheist, but still appreciate this podcast’s sentiment towards human health. THANK YOU for all the work you two do!

We need thoughtful, eloquent... more

  • A voice of reason

    As a lover of science and conservative Christian in a day age that it’s not socially acceptable I love to be able to hear a voice reason coming from a standpoint of trying to understand the world as we see it both from a scientific lens and making sense of the underlying actions going on around us. I look forward to hearing about news with an aspect of research and viewpoint stemming from the scientific field.

Q: What is your read on Netanyahu's leadership and its impact on U.S. policy?

Q: What do you see as the core threat to the West's ability to sustain its democratic institutions?
The threat comes from a combination of escalating tribalism, the co-option of political power by a few, and the deliberate erosion of checks and balances, which is being accelerated by a global narrative that pits groups against each other and discourages open, nuanced discussion.
