    Joy, I’m with you on being dumbfounded how Americans who believes in the rights God gave all his creations. Will come after NY mayor for being against what civil rights activists died to gain. Mamdani is a great young American. Who’s principals are honorable. And his bravery is admired.

  • Please fix recent sound issues

    I enjoy the podcast, but I feel like the most recent episodes (like the last two weeks or so) have had audio / connection issues. I’m not sure if this is just something effecting Apple Podcasts :( but the audio cuts out in several places multiple times during a show. It makes it hard to follow what’s being said
