589: Guarding the Wall of Separation Between Church & State with Warren Throckmorton & Michael Coulter

The Republicans in Congress have finally chosen a new Speaker of the House, and he's a Bible-affirming, young Earth creationist, election denying, Southern Baptist. What does Mike Johnson's rise say about the growing influence of Southern fundamentalism in politics? Then, Phil interviews Warren Throckmorton and Michael Coulter about their book, "Getting Jefferson Right," and the attempts by Christian Nationalists to revise American history to remove the wall os separation between church and state. Also this week—the war between Israel and Hamas is getting worse and so is antisemitism around the world. Plus, Charlie Kirk says Halloween is in the Bible and it's forbidden!
