In this episode of Light Beer | Dark Money, Chris and Sean kick things off with a spirited exchange about the newly elected Pope Leo XIV —exploring how his distinctly American sense of faith and leadership presents a defining opportunity for the global Church. Rejecting rigid labels of liberal or conservative, they dive into his unapologetically Catholic priorities and what they could mean for the future of faith, culture, and conscience.
Then it’s time for a classic “Rant” as the duo breaks down Donald Trump’s latest victories, including landmark trade deals and the dismantling of corrupt prescription drug pricing schemes. They spotlight Biden’s latest cognitive stumbles, torch Sandy Cortez’s delusional rhetoric, and unpack the chaos surrounding the “Storming of the ICE Bastille.”
The episode closes with a heartfelt tribute to Mike Peters of The Alarm—celebrating a life of music, message, and enduring courage. Bold, unfiltered, and deeply personal, this episode takes a stand on faith, politics, and rock & roll.
Faith, politics, trade, and health — it’s all here.
