The Nut Graf
The new Monday Edition of the show, catching us all up before venturing into the wilds of the week
Support independent journalism. No breaking or bending; neither billionaires, nor bribes. Just the facts. Upgrade now.
Today at noon, ‘The Nut Graf’
So the weekly Monday show, which I debuted last week, will be called “The Nut Graf”, based on the poll results I was able to collect. (The Substack poll feature ain’t so hot. That was the first, and last, time I’ll be using that. Thanks to everyone who cast a ballot/was able to cast a ballot. Administering elections is tough work!)
The style and goal is catching us up on big stories which rocked our worlds at the time, yet seem to have vanished in the wash of other big stories (and more than a few non-stories).
🚨🚨🚨 You can now get Tom LoBianco Reports on Spotify! 🚨🚨🚨
I’m slowly cleaning up audio and adding shows (we’re at Number 34 already here on TLR!) I’m still getting Apple setup, look for that soon. The pod is typically the main interview minus the news top that starts each show, nice for if you want to catch up while you’re commuting, getting work done around the house, screaming quietly in your heart, what have you.
Reminder that you can catch full previous episodes of TLR at the 24sight News YouTube channel. If you’ve got someone you’d like to see on the show or a topic you’d like me to cover, drop a line: tom@24sight.news.
Tomorrow: The NEW Christian Right
Yep, you read that right. New.
I’ve been wanting to do this show for awhile, it’s related to reporting and themes I touched on in “Piety & Power” and a part of the conservative movement that I think is generally glossed over or combined into one broad category in most news coverage without truly appreciating some key differences.
And those differences — from the Christian Right and politicized evangelicals of decades past and the new brand and practice of the Christian Right — have some profound impacts.
I’m moderately versed in this stuff, so I wanted to get on someone who really knows it: Matthew Taylor, Ph.D. He received his masters in theology at Fuller Theological Seminary and is one of the nation’s foremost experts on the New Apostolic Reformation. He has a great podcast which came out last year on this, I listened to it earlier this year.
We’re going to be getting to a lot, but among other things I think this will help a lot of folks trying to figure out why one of the world’s most powerful tech titans, Peter Thiel, keeps bringing up the “antichrist”.
