Welcome to the Eric Metaxis show with your host, Eric Metaxus.

Hey there, folks. It's the Eric Metaxus show. And as you know, I've been talking a lot about my new book, Is Atheism Dead? I'm very proud of it. I think it has very important information in it. A lot of people read it and compare me to Melville and Tolstoy.

And I want to say that, you know, I've been doing a lot of radio talking

about my book, Is Atheism Dead? And I was supposed to be on the Larry Elder show because I thought

Larry was my friend. But they booked me on that program when he had a guest host because he was

doing something silly, like, I don't know, running for governor or whatever.

I don't even know if that was real.

But the fact is that the guest host, Carl Jackson,

I hit it off with him so much.

I said, I got to get this guy on my radio program,

not to talk about his atheism dead, but to talk about Carl Jackson.

And he is my guest today.

I'm the host, Carl Jackson, you're the guest.

Welcome.

Hey, thank you, Aaron.

I appreciate you having me on.

Well, I just, you know, there's certain people you just hit it off, and I just thought

I really love talking to you and getting little bits and pieces of your story.

And I thought you should come on my program and, you know, I want my audience to get to know

Carl Jackson.

And the only way I could really do that is to have you on the program.

So now you, did we just lose him?
