To kill a mockingbird was 1962 not 1973. Was there a remake?
Using a baseball analogy, your need to call balls and strikes as balls and strokes regardless of the team at the plate.

Used to be a Catholic podcast and now it’s a conspiracy show with Thomas Massie and Candace Owens as the go to experts.
