Summary

Kira Davis (Editor-at-Large for redstate.com) drops by for a frank conversation about the hole that fatherlessness leaves in society, “benevolent” government, the destruction of the term “racism”, and extending grace to each other in our most challenging moments. She shares stories about growing up on Prince Edward Island, having a conversion experience during childhood, becoming a conservative, and the audacity of youth. She and Bridget talk tips for dealing with depression, God & meditation, the cult of self, and why white people need to be more honest about their desperation not to be perceived as racist.
