Welcome to Free Thought Radio.

I'm Annie Laurie Gaylor.

And I'm Dan Barker.

Annie Laurie and I are co-presidents of the Freedom from Religion Foundation.

And this is the September 5th, 2024 episode of Free Thought Radio. And our producer is Leo Costello. And our engineer is Tori Neels. Tori Neils is with audio for the arts.

We are recording Free Thought Radio in the Stephen Ool-friendly atheist studio in Freethought Hall.

Freethought Hall is the national office of the Freedom from Religion Foundation in Madison, Wisconsin.

And Free Thought Radio is the weekly production of the Freedom from Religion Foundation, which has two important purposes to serve

as a national membership group for those of us who are personally free from religion.

We are 40,000 members in North America and to work to keep government free from religion

as required under our godless and secular U.S. Constitution,

which is greatly under assault these days.

So we would welcome your support at ffruf.org.

So we interview a lot of authors on this show, Dan, but you are an author, and you had a new book come out just this week. Yes, it did. It's called

Contraduction, and it came out on Tuesday. Yeah, so contradiction, not contradiction. You might think

it's a typo because on the keyboard, the I and the you are next to each other. So some people might

think contradiction is a typo, but it's not, it's actually a new word. So I think that we're gonna have to wait till the interview to explain that new word, so stay tuned. And I see that it is already a best seller on Amazon under Atheism. Wasn't it number one this week? It was for a couple of days.
