Summary

Megyn Kelly is joined by Konstantin Kisin, author of "An Immigrant's Love Letter to the West," to talk about Sen. Josh Hawley's battle with a law professor over who can have babies, identity politics in our culture, the folly of trying to counter the "racist" narrative on the right, the efforts to shame into silence and woke shaming over reality, whether the trans issue will swing the pendulum the other direction, protecting children rather than affirming, green policies harming the working class, the decline of our world leaders, and more. Then Alexa and Carlos PenaVega, authors of "What If Love is the Point?" join to talk about their careers in Hollywood in films like "Sky Kids" and shows like "Big Time Rush," getting married young, prioritizing family and marriage, finding God and faith, career vs. family, growing up and hardship, staying wholesome in Hollywood and the music industry, struggles with eating disorders, and more.

Constantine, welcome back to the show. Great to have you here.

Megan, thank you so much for having me. It's a real pleasure to be back with you.

Congrats on the book. So the last time you were on, we talked about Russia and Ukraine and you know
