Even if your faith background differs from ours, we look forward to interacting with you at The Sci-Fi Christian!

https://www.currentaffairs.org/2024/02/the-dystopias-of-yesterday
Before that, Ben and the GTAA crew watch some of a bizarre-even-by-the-standards-of-Alex-Jones conversation about hive minds and "the AI agenda" between evil clown Alex Jones, enemy-of-lizard-people David Icke, and a voice that may or may not be Elon Musk. Last but not least, Ethan from the Confronting Capital channel and Victor Bruzzone join us in the postgame for patrons to watch some Ben Shapiro inanity. This is a fun one.
