Description

This week Willie, Nema and Aaron cover Kentucky's breaking political news - a BIG WIN for the gays, big news about shady campaign contributions in the Gov’s race and big news about broadband…., then, we’re very excited to interview the Rev. Dr. Leah Schade - a Lexington-based theologian and pastor who has been educating the public about the growing threat of Christian Nationalism  - this movement challenging the separation of church and state, and what folks committed to maintaining that wall should be doing. Then we close out with a critical (& quick!) call to action.
