    I find listening to Bret and Heather very enjoyable. They seem above all else to have a kind and open disposition to the truth, or its faint glimmerings. In this time where people are intentionally muddying the water and turning out lights it is important that we who still wish to see use every capacity to retrieve sense, even if this can appear at times like fools grasping in the dark. We shall find the light. They’ll not win.

As a “60 something” woman, I’ve seen the shift go from semi-useful to destructive. I jumped ship on feminism in my early thirties but it was hard to shake some of the lies I told myself. I hope that we figure out how to work to... more
