The REAL Problem with American Christianity | THE BIG RANT

The Chris and Andre Show — Mon, 11 Dec 2023 10:15:00 -0500

Chris, along for the ride as always, shares his thoughts, too, as someone who was raised in the Catholic church but left after high school because he didn't feel like the messaging aligned with the church's actions.

As usual, the conversation does dip into politics from time to time, with the religious right embracing Donald Trump despite all of his major red flags. But this conversation has a different tone than a lot of our previous episodes, so we hope you enjoy it.

(00:00:00) Israel and Palestine - The guys share their thoughts on the horrific scenes coming out of Israel and Gaza and the resulting black-and-white arguments being made, forcing people to choose a side.

(00:06:55) Losing My Religion? - Andre shares something he's been struggling with for some time now: being Catholic in America while also watching American Christianity embody everything his religion is against. He talks about the murder of George Floyd and the church's silence in the aftermath and how that became a tipping point for him.

Does the GOP Even Have A Candidate?

The Chris and Andre Show — Sat, 07 Oct 2023 05:00:00 -0400

Chris and Andre talk about reporters doing their jobs, Joe Biden being old(er), and who exactly the GOP has available as a candidate for president in 2024.

(00:00:00) Andre Shares His Thoughts on Reporters - Andre is tired of reporters being thanked for doing their job and also doesn't care about sports reporters' opions on politics.
(00:04:40) Joe Biden Is Older - A recent poll shows Americans know President Joe Biden is old... the guys share their take on this ground breaking news and what the real focus should be on in 2024.
(00:08:17) The GOP Has No Good Candidates - Once again, the GOP is failing to produce a viable candidate for the 2024 Presidential Election, at least based on the early results, including Tim Scott, Ron DeSantis, and Vivek Ramaswamy. The only standout so far in both guys' minds is Nikki Haley, but she had her own baggage as well.

The Chris and Andre Show — Wed, 16 Nov 2022 03:00:00 -0500

In this edition of THE BIG RANT, Chris and Andre share their exhaustion over the midterm elections and the abundance of yard signs and political advertisements seemingly everywhere.

The guys kick things off discussing how ridiculous political ads have become and the need to smear an opponent rather than informing the voters about your positions. Also, did you know that political ads are legally allowed to be misleading?

Next, they long for the days of reasonable political debates amongst friends and colleagues and admit that it seems that ship has sailed and the United States was not on board when it did.

Kanye West and Herschel Walker | THE BIG RANT

The Chris and Andre Show — Wed, 12 Oct 2022 05:00:00 -0400

In this edition of THE BIG RANT, Chris and Andre take on the latest controversies from both Kayne West and Herschel Walker. Kanye has poked his head out of hiding to announce his clothing line and that "White Lives Matter" while Herschel Walker is hit with an "October Surprise" when The Daily Beast reports he encouraged and later paid for a woman to have an abortion while he supports and all-out ban on abortions with absolutely no exceptions.

(00:01:40) Kanye West - Ye sparked interest when he announced his own clothing line while in Paris, then "shocks" everyone by wearing a shirt that had "White Lives Matter" printed on it. Chris and Andre discuss this latest controversy in the greater context of what has been going on with Kanye over the last several years, including him cozyin up to Trump and the MAGA crew and his continued missteps as a father after his separation and divorce from Kim Kardashian.

(00:34:02) Herschel Walker - The embroiled senatorial candidate from Georgia continues to have bombshell revelations reported against him, the latest being his alleged encouragement and involvement in an abortion with the mother of one of his children, despite him now denying the allegations and supporting a comprehensive ban on abortions without exceptions for rape, incest, or the life of the mother. Chris and Andre listen to his son, Christian Walker, as he explains his viewpoint on the subject, as well as Republican mouthpieces like Dana Loesch, who continue to support Walker's candidacy because, frankly, the ends justify the means.
