Welcome to the Eric Muttaxe Show. I'm not the announcer Todd Wilkerson, but I sound

0:16.1

so much like him that Eric asked me to take over. Evidently Todd was caught stealing again.

0:20.1

Oh, it was nothing big. Just some toilet paper out of the studio bathroom, little soaps

0:24.0

and some poppery. But still, Eric said it was the principle of the thing. So he fired

0:28.0

Todd's behind just like that. And now your host, Mr. Law and order Eric Muttaxe.

0:33.0

That's right, folks. You steal, you lose your job. Hey, I have to say you know that we're

1:31.7

and I'm the director of outreach for Christian Solidarity International. And for 14, almost 14

1:38.1

years, I've had the privilege of along with others becoming the voices, those whose voices

1:44.9

have been stilled because of jihadis slavery and letting the world know. And so I've documented

1:51.8

their suffering, the beatings, the branding, the amputations and what they're forced to watch

1:58.2

and to endure. And of course, to not only let their plight be known, but to say, we've got to do
