Show Notes
A “polling firm” gets quoted by major media outlets, pundits build narratives on top of it, and then the group admits the numbers were basically made up. That’s where we start, because it exposes a bigger problem: too many people are being emotionally steered by information that was never verified in the first place. We’re Rick Green, David Barton, and Tim Barton, and we’re bringing a rapid-fire Good News Friday that replaces hot takes with tangible developments you can actually evaluate. We...

A “historical” series can look authentic and still sell you a false story, and that matters because stories shape what we think America is. We respond to a listener question about the History Channel’s Sons of Liberty and explain why accuracy is more than dates and costumes. We talk about the telltale signs of a modern, cynical lens that spotlights grime, vice, and cheap drama while flattening the founding era’s strongest motivations: faith, duty, courage, and a fierce sense of justice rooted...
Your ballot is not a love letter, and it’s definitely not a place to nurse a grudge. We’re feeling a shift on the ground, and we talk through what we’re seeing as we travel: pastors showing unexpected courage, churches waking up to how close elections really are, and turnout that can swing a congressional district with just a few hundred votes. Rick Green, David Barton, Tim Barton, and special guest Chad Connelly break down why Christian voter turnout is often the margin of victory, especiall...

We start with a grounding question that cuts through slogans: what is the purpose of government? From there, w...
Polls are loud, but the ground truth is louder and what we’re hearing in battleground states is giving us cautious optimism. With the midterm elections just days away, we break down why national polling can miss what local leaders and campaigns are actually seeing, and why the only number that finally matters is turnout. If you’ve ever felt tempted to sit out because “my vote won’t change anything,” this conversation is for you. We also go deeper than horse-race politics and talk about the d...
The news cycle is loud, but not everything happening in America is bad, and we refuse to act like it is. Good News Friday brings you stories that point to real shifts in culture, policy, and public courage, plus a few practical ways you can help us keep moving forward. We start with a candid request: pray for us. Between now and the election we’re traveling, speaking, doing interviews, and dealing with the same flight delays and disruptions everyone’s feeling. Your prayers matter as much as ...
