(00:00-09:35): The Warriors/Raptors series is heating up after a major comeback from Golden State to take game 5. Durant goes down with an Achilles injury, to the enjoyment of the Toronto crowd.

(09:35-18:59): In today’s society, it is easy to believe that Christianity is dwindling, but a Harvard Study determines that it is, in fact, growing stronger.

(18:59-28:20): Cindi Boston of Crisis Pregnancy Centers joins the show to discuss the option line offered. It is a fact that women use the CPC option line every 45 seconds for help.

(58:58-1:08:15): The most popular class at Yale called ‘Psychology and the Good Life” is now available online. Brian and Ian discuss what really makes us happy, and apply it to their sermons.

(1:08:15-1:14:36): Brian and Ian's “Weird Stuff We Found on the Internet”: Florida seems to be the leading export of amazing stories, while Pennsylvania folks don’t understand how the weather works.
