In this video, we expose a critical problem shaping modern society: the dominance of false information online caused by popularity-based algorithms in search engines and AI systems like ChatGPT. While we are surrounded by more information than ever before, much of what we read, watch, and hear is not based on truth—but on what is repeated most often, shared most widely, or sells most easily.

We explore how these systems reward what...

"By reason of their special vocation it belongs to the laity to seek the kingdom of God by engaging in temporal affairs and directing them according to God's will.... It pertains to them in a special way so to illuminate and order all temporal things with which they are closely associated that these may always be effected and grow according to Christ and maybe to the glory of the Creator and Redeemer." -Catechism of the Catholic C...

Created in Wisdom: A Catholic Defense of a 6,000-Year-Old World

In this video, we present a philosophical and theological defense of the belief that the world is approximately 6,000 years old and was created instantaneously by God—not in six literal days, and certainly not over billions of years. Drawing from the teachings of St. Augustine and the classical Catholic tradition, this talk explains why the six-day structure in Genesis...

    Cardiac Cowboys

    The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
