Eric Metaxas sits down with Naomi Wolf to unpack the Socrates in the City gala, the crisis of Western civilization, and why the world they glimpsed that night is worth fighting for. Together they trace how cultural elites, media, and global institutions have undermined family, faith, and free speech for decades, and why ordinary people are finally waking up in America and Europe. From the sexual revolution and feminist debates to immigration, Islamism, antisemitism, and the breakdown of civil society, this is a sober but hopeful call to defend truth, beauty, and ordered liberty while there is still time.

Eric and Greg also address the shocking rise of antisemitism, the modern miracle of Israel, and why this moment feels like the last days.

At a Mar a Lago wedding for his friend Mike Wilkerson, President Trump suddenly walked into the reception, saw Eric, and told the bride and groom, “This is the guy who is going to get me into heaven.” The clip went ultra viral, and a wave of online critics accused Eric of failing to share the gospel in that moment. In this episode, Eric explains what really happened in the noisy, chaotic room, why he answered the way he did, and how the reaction exposed what he calls a growing Pharisee spirit and an idol of evangelism in the church. He also responds to a recent Tucker Carlson comment about Bonhoeffer and clarifies why Bonhoeffer acted as he did from a Christian ethical framework. Later, Eric talks with groom Mike Wilkerson about the wedding itself and then with Kevin McCullough about Christian Solidarity International and how viewers can help free real slaves in Sudan.

Eric Metaxas welcomes General Michael Flynn to discuss the deep state, the state of justice, and why he believes the Trump administration has not delivered the accountability many Americans expected. Flynn argues that Pam Bondi was the wrong choice for attorney general, explains why he has called for Sidney Powell or another strong leader to take that position, and warns that the Department of Justice is still filled with people who oppose the America First agenda. He breaks down the danger of the so-called “Seditious Six” letter from retired officers, describes what he believes is a coordinated color revolution, and calls this a very dangerous moment for the country. Flynn claims Barack Obama led the Russia hoax, insists that Trump must personally take responsibility for pursuing justice, and says America is now one election away from losing everything. He concludes that election integrity and real accountability are the two non-negotiable priorities if the republic is going to survive.
