Only 2 Biblical Reasons for Divorce? Plus Tithing & Canada's Wildfires

Nate flies solo (for a bit) to open this one, still cranky about the two topics that just won't die: is there a biblical case for divorce, and is tithing actually a command? Spoiler: he lays out the only two biblical grounds for divorce (and no, "we fell out of love" isn't one of them), then Sean jumps in to press him on tithing, giving, and whether Ezekiel's "woe to the shepherds who grow fat" applies to prosperity preachers today. From there the show goes full culture-desk: Michael joins to weigh in on AOC's viral "southern accent" moment that had the internet doing a double take (read more: https://notthebee.com/article/aocs-southern-accent-will-have-yall-sayin-bless-your-heart), Ken Hovind's actual tax evasion conviction gets fact-checked, and the crew debates defense spending and the size of government. Then it's a deep dive into the Canadian wildfires choking US air quality and Trump's threat to tack the smoke's cost onto Canadian tariffs — plus some good-natured ribbing about giant reservoirs and faucets that don't exist. Steph closes things out with viewer questions on marriage — betrayal, finances, emotional distance — Ephesians 5 as the reset button for a struggling marriage, and a real conversation about husband/wife roles that lands on the "is the Bible misogynistic?" question with Michael. It's a packed, occasionally chaotic episode of Ask A Christian Podcast that swings from serious apologetics to Andrew Tate's arrest to a firefighter's caricature — because that's just how Mondays go around here.
