“Hey! Do you want to start a podcast?” Those were the fabled words of Chris Clements to Sean Noble four years ago that launched the Light Beer | Dark Money podcast in the meeting rooms of GCU’s Canyon Ventures. Encouraged by Executive Director, Robert Vera, the podcast began with a few guests and sounded a lot like a bad SNL NPR skit. We’ve since graduated to the big-time studios of Dave Pratt’s Star Worldwide Networks and WE could not be more appreciative to Mayor Pratt and our producers – Robin Cote, Bill Harfosh, and Alex Smet – for giving us the opportunity to spout off about issues of Faith Freedom and Free Enterprise. Thank you to all of our guests and our listeners for making this a top podcast.

Speaking of NPR – Chris and Sean also tackle the hearings recently held on Capitol Hill regarding the inherent Liberal bias of both NPR and PBS – both of which seem to live in an alternate reality than a country that is primarily conservative. Meanwhile, the Trump administration continues to deal with the fallout of the “Signalgate” scandal… a “scandal” that really isn’t one other than the fact that Jeffrey Goldberg could have removed himself from a spirited back and forth that led to a successful military operation… that continues today.

In terms of alternate realities, many 80/20 issues – men in women’s sports, deportation of gang members, bombing of Tesla dealerships -have engulfed the Left and are becoming more like religion than sound policy prescriptions. Chris and Sean conclude that the absence of belief in creation and even creation order has led the hard Left to create new Gods to follow.

Lastly, will DOGE continue the chains saw approach to government with Elon Derangement Syndrome taking center stage on all media platforms. Should Elon wear a Freddy, Jason, Michael, or Leatherface mask as her takes the chain saw to huge swaths of waste fraud and abuse?
