Are Tucker Carlson and Candace Owens Right? Testing Their Claims with Reason and Evidence

from The Freethinking Podcasts · host Tim Stratton and Josh Klein

It seems our world is constantly moving towards conspiracy. Some are proven, others are not. How do we, as Christians, apply reason and sound theology without dismissing questions out of hand? Tucker Carlson and Candace Owens stand as the most prominent figures of the conspiracy laden right. Josh and Tim take a look at their claims, expose their tactics and encourage Colossians 2 thinking to stay above the fray.
