A quick midweek update
Don't be so quick to take sides
I don't like Putin, in fact I think the world would be a better place without him, but George Soros is supporting Ukraine. I think there are a lot of questions to be answered before I can develop a well formed opinion. There also seems to be a lot of propaganda pouring out of mainstream media, including conservative media in regards to Russia's invasion of Ukraine. I really felt the need to rant about this. So here it is!
America has a problem with the Cult of Victimization!
Its time to stop the division in our nation. The left is using the cult of victimhood to fracture the greatest country in the history of the world. Whether its division over race, class, education, or sexual preference it's past time to come to the table and ask the tough questions. But they need not be tough. A simple approach to the problems that face our nation are all that is needed.
California is destroying itself!

The Electoral College and a Brief Civics Lesson
Hello All. I will be gone for a couple of weeks, but I won't leave you hanging. I am reposting previous podcasts this week and next week. T%his week I will repost an episode I did on the Electoral College and answer that question: Do we have a republic or a democracy? I hope you enjoy it.
COVID, IQ, and Employment: How will it affect our future?
Recently the topic of the role that IQ plays in your employment prospects caught my attention. Of course how could this not also involve the current COVID hysteria, and the poor policies that our elected officials keep doubling down on? In this episode I am not laying out the data and reasoning with you to come to a conclusion, but am asking that you take some of these data and concerns and spend some time thinking about them, researching them, and praying about them. If these concerns come into fruition it is possible that we could face some real challenges in the future.

With Great Power Comes Great Responsibility
We've all heard this saying, and it is no more true than when it comes to Liberty. Liberty comes with great responsibility and self discipline, and preserving the Blessings of Liberty for future generations is at the heart of conservatism. Join me as we do a deep dive into the truth of Liberty and its role as the foundation of the conservative movement.
Spider-Man: No Way Home Review
As promised this is the review of Spider-Man: No Way Home. Why? Because talking nothing but politics can get you down. Its important to spend some time enjoying life. In this episode I am joined by my two daughters. We discuss our likes and dislikes about the latest installment in the Spider-Man franchise, as well as what we hope for the future of Spider-Man movies. If you have not yet seen Spider-Man: No Way Home, then you may want to skip this review until you do, as there will be massive spoilers in this podcast. If you have seen it, please sit back and enjoy our review.
A Brief Origin of Christmas
Thank you so much for tuning back in. I have decided to hold off on the Spider Man No Way Home review until next week, so that people have time to go see it before listening to spoilers. Instead here is a replay of a "Brief Origins of Christmas" from last season. I hope you enjoy it, and have a very Merry Christmas.
COVID-19: What we've learned up to this point
In this podcast I wanted to go through some of the data we've accumulated over the last 20 months. What happened to "15 days to flatten the curve"? How did the business closures and lockouts work out? What's the truth about face masks? And how about those MRNA shorts and vaccine mandates? I go over data on all of this in an attempt to provide a truly objective view of the data, rather than the "scientism" view that simply looks for data to prove their model.
For links to all of these articles please head over to my blog site where you will find a list:

Decline of the American Family
This week I want to talk a little about the decline of marriage and traditional family values in America. I'll talk about and share some data on the benefits of what we call traditional marriage and family. Are many of our societal issues linked to the decline of the American family? I will let you form your own opinion, but please make sure you research this information for yourself.
Also, please visit my blog site at https://thevoiceofx.wordpress.com. There you can read regular posts as well as find links to the podcast on various platforms.
Do your research before voting!
Matthew McConaughey has decided not to run for governor of Texas, and to be honest he had a strong following. But what does anyone really know about is political leanings? This got me to thinking a lot about voting. Voting is not just a right, it is a duty. You have a duty not only to yourself but the everyone around you and even to future generations. Your decisions in the voting booth will have ramifications that ripple through future generations. In this podcast I rant a little about my own experience with this and what I think we need to do going forward.
I'm Back!!!!
I'm back after almost a year! After prayer, a lot of Bible study, and talking to a few people I've decided to come back to the Voice of X podcast. I will still be offering my opinion based on data and facts, but you will be getting a lot more of... well... me. Be prepared to be challenged and offended, but hopefully in a good way. And in light of the Thanksgiving holiday this week I have tacked on my "History of Thanksgiving" podcast from 2019. Hope you enjoy it and I look forward to more podcasts. Thank you.
Time to get moving!
Don’t abandon the team
Stand firm, and do not despair
After closing out a contentious year, and starting 2021 with flagrant disregard for law and order in the form of our courts and leaders refusing to look at election fraud, many of us have been left wondering what happens next. If you are filled with despair and pessimism then I want to present you with a word of hope. The victory is the Lord's and the means by which He will accomplish it may be beyond our understanding. “For My thoughts are not your thoughts, Nor are your ways My ways,” says the LORD. - Isaiah 55:8
I got the rona!
Well, I contracted SARS-COV2, corona virus, covid19, the rona or whatever the vernacular is now days. Honestly, I've always said that eventually, much like the flu most of us would end up getting it. In this episode I provide you with what I went through: my symptoms, my recovery, and my stance on the current lockdowns and mask mandates now that I've gone through it. If you have not listened to the previous podcast "Things you don't hear about COVID" then I would suggest going back and not only listening to it, but reading the articles and the references in the articles that I posted in the description of that podcast. Remember to pray, educate yourself, and speak up.
American parallels to communism, with guest Silvica Rosca
Things you don't hear about COVID
Staying with the topic of not giving into irrational fear, I want to discuss some topics under the umbrella of the Novel Corona virus. Specifically Masks: Are they effective or even healthy, can I get COVID-19 from surface, and is COVID-19 a death sentence? It seems that as we have learned so much about the the virus, how it transmits, and how to treat it we should be moving in the positive direction of opening back up, but we are regressing. I encourage anyone who listens to this podcast to also read the articles that I cite (including the resources listed in each article) and look at this pandemic from all angles in order to make an informed decision for yourself.

Don't be discouraged.
More Covid lockdowns, election fraud, riots, and uncertainty! There is plenty to fear right now, but don't be discouraged. Let me take you on a brief trip through American history, and share some encouraging scriptures with you. I think you'll find that we are in good company.

Possible Covid-19 Preventative Measures with Andy Tuttle
In this episode, I am joined once again by Andy Tuttle. Andy has had some experience with Covid19 and has some opinions on ways that may help prevent a Covid19 infection. Today I discuss some of those opinions with him. Please keep in mind that we are not medical professionals, and these are just our opinions. They are are not to be considered as medical advice.

The Left ruins EVERYTHING!
This week I wanted to touch on what I think will be the destiny of the American way of life, depending on how this election turns out. And no, it's not over yet. Regardless of what the mainstream media says about it. But I couldn't help but carried away with how the left seems to ruin everything they touch. They are literal fun-suckers, taking the joy out of life. Join me in a little shameless ranting this week.

Our future is on the line. What will be the wider results of Tuesday's Presidential Election?
The Second Presidential Debate: My take on it
We need to get to work...
This is a message to Christians and non-Christians alike. Its time to stop fretting over what is to come. We need to be active participants in the world or risk losing our nation.
I Choose Risk.
Life... real life... must be lived. We can accomplish nothing, individually or corporately, if we eschew risk and spend our lives seeking safety. We must have courage. We must step up and speak the truth, and take an active role in our society. The very founding of our nation, as well as its ascension to the greatest nation on Earth attests to this. Its time to stop living in fear, and choose liberty over safety.
Say their names!
A background of the list of so-called victims and a new list of names you've probably never heard anywhere. This is an issue of victim mentality, communist revolt, and a general attempt by the left to break down law and order.
Are Democrats purposely tanking the 2020 election? Special guest Andy Tuttle
In this episode I am joined by long-time friend Andy Tuttle. We discuss a theory he has postulated that the Democrats may actually be purposely trying to lose the 2020 election. For reference you can read his theory in full by clicking here. Or copy and past the this url into your browser: https://www.faithwriters.com/article-details.php?id=205830
*Correction: in this episode I referred to gen-z'ers as zennials. This is incorrect. Zennials are the "micro generation" that is between gen-z'ers and millennials.
Time to step up
It's time to fix this!
We can no longer just draw a line in the sand. The left will just blow past it. It's time to demand a return to decency.
Who's the better choice?
Are you tired of hearing the lies about the evils of President Trump? Or how about the silly straw man arguments when you bring up his many achievements while in office? Who really is the clear choice for the presidency? Let me tell you my opinion.
The Effort to Divide Us
The left consistently tries to divide the nation, most often along the lines of class and race. We can see it in some of the statements from celebrities and political voices everyday. Here are just a few of those and my take on them. Also, I recommend you check out "Everything You've Ever Seen About Cuba Is A Lie" by Turning point USA. You can watch it here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fz6VJK3mS08&t=13s
The Silent Majority needs to wake up!
It is time for the silent majority to become the vocal majority. It's time to get engaged, otherwise we will lose America as we know it.

Civil rights movement or Marxist Revolution?
If you're supporting #BLM you may want to rethink it. Too many think they are holding hands in our generations civil rights movement, but the reality is far more sinister.
Mail-in Ballot Reality
Trying out a new format. Hope you like it. This episode is a bit of rant about mail-in ballots, and was sparked by a debate I engaged in today. Checkout this article as reference as well: https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.freep.com/amp/4397845002
I Lost Everything!
Let me share with you a testimony of enlightenment that I had when I lost everything due to a medical condition.
You're being controlled through fear!
I tried to really take a hard look at the data and the numbers to help you put the current pandemic into proper perspective. We really need to stop being afraid, see what is really going on, and make common sense decisions. This could be a crucial pivot point for our nation. The question is: Which way will it pivot?
Takeaways from current pandemic
I wanted to share some of my opinions about what is happening here, as well as share some things that I think we need to address once we get through this.
Encouragement
A little information to help provide some encouragement.
Why is housing so darn expensive?
If you live some place like California you may be struggling with the astronomical cost of housing. If you live in another red state you maybe dealing with the people who voted for the people who have caused this problem as they flee to your state to escape the disaster that they helped create. Either way I want to explain a little about why the cost of housing might be so high, and how I feel about it. What are your thoughts?
A Case for Reason
In this episode we explore approaching the situations that face our nation, states, and communities from a logical perspective, using common sense, objectivity, and sympathy.
A Brief History of Christmas
With Christmas fast approaching I just wanted to provide a brief history of this holiday and some of its traditions. Merry Christmas!!!
A Short Lesson on the Electoral College
In todays political climate there is a lot of talk about eliminating the Electoral College and electing the President of the United States by national popular vote. In this episode I delve into just what the Electoral College is, and why we have it.
Pay Attention!
Recently I have found my attention span to be growing shorter and shorter, and I have been finding myself feeling exhausted and irritated. I thought it was just me, but it appears that this may not be the case.
Don't Skip Over Thanksgiving
Every year we rush quicker and quicker from Halloween into Christmas. But there is another Holiday in between: Thanksgiving. Let's delve into this wonderful Holiday a little bit, and maybe encourage you to spend time in Thanksgiving before you jump to Christmas and New Year's.
Where is the Slacker Generation?
We hear about the boomers and especially the millennials on a constant basis. But we forget that there is a generation in between those two: Generation X. Why don't we hear from this generation? Their pop culture permeates the American culture, but where have they gone? Join me as I explore some facts, data, and form an opinion in this episode.
