What Is VidAngel? Baptism of the Holy Spirit a Second Blessing? How Should Christians Talk to Trans?
Host Nate tackles the classic Pentecostal vs. traditional Christian debate: Is baptism of the Holy Spirit a “second blessing” separate from salvation, or does it happen at the moment of conversion? We dive into Acts, Romans, and the scriptural case for both sides—plus why misrepresenting each other’s beliefs doesn’t help the conversation. Also featured: a charitable yet biblical perspective on how Christians should talk to transgender individuals, a look at the surprisingly controversial VidAngel streaming service (and its Mormon legal battles), and a healthy dose of Nate’s post-Thanksgiving doomscrolling through the wildest corners of X. Same salvation, different spiritual experiences—let’s clear the air without clearing the room.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
