In this episode I was honored to talk with Tucker Carlson. As many know, he is one of the most prominent and popular voices in political commentary. We discussed what he is currently reading in the Bible, why the Elite class is obsessed with killing babies, and how technology has usurped our ability to think and act freely. I hope you enjoy.

The Orthodoxy Podcast started in 2019. At the time it was hosted by myself (Andy Schmitt) and a pastor from High Point Church, Nic Gibson. About two years ago Nic and I parted ways. He was instant on creating an ecumenical partnership with a church in Madison, WI called End Time Ministries – a church run by a husband and wife who called themselves "pastors" and publicly supported abortion, transgenderism, and homosexuality. High Point Church and Nic Gibson saw no issue with this partnership. I did. We went our separate ways. I released a podcast on July 12th, 2024 called "Optiv Theology Podcast Is Changing..." in which I shared why Nic was no longer a part of the podcast and gave evidence as to why End Time Ministries and their "female pastor", Sheila Stubbs, were promoting unbiblical and plainly evil ideologies and policies. Nic and High Point Church responded by name calling and brushing off the evident I gave, and I never responded.
But over the years that I spent at High Point Church, there were many, many other issues taking place behind the scenes that led to the decision to ecumenically partner with a Christ-hating church and ultimately, to Nic and I severing our personal and professional relationship. This episode is multifaceted and brings forth names, emails, texts, and information regarding Nic Gibson's conduct as Senior Pastor at High Point Church and accusations that have been, repeatedly, made against him to his elder board that have never been taken seriously. The High Point Church elder board has been complicit in the cover up of serious accusations by lying to their congregants (on record – this will be in the podcast) about the spiritual health of their pastors, staff members, and elders. They have made threats that have not been followed through with and have bullied and manipulated women in their congregation and on their staff to shut them up and force them into silent submission.
For two years I have deliberated over releasing this information. But in the past week High Point Church decided to inaugurate a new elder on to their elder board. This new elder has made blatant heretical statements about homosexuality and God's willingness and ability to sanctify people who are "same-sex attracted". This decision by High Point Church was the final straw for me. Madison, WI is riddled with ungodly and heretical churches filled with blind adherents to liberal philosophy. The way this has perpetuated over the decades is through bullying, manipulation, lying, deception, and the unwillingness to tell the truth. So here it is.

In this interview I talked with the Senator from Wisconsin, Ron Johnson. We discussed his bombshell report called, Unmasked: How Biden Health Officials Purposely Turned a Blind Eye Toward COVID-19 Vaccine Safety Signals. In this report, Senator Johnson and his team reveals that many people within the FDA and HHS, among other governmental organizations, knew that the COVID-19 vaccines were linked to strokes and even death as early as 2021. Senator Johnson's team found conclusive evidence that the United States Government, the majority of American media companies, and the monopolistic Pharmaceutical Companies worked together to suppress the truth about the Vaccines and, in turn, killed thousands of innocent American citizens.
For being one of the most significant reports in modern history, you would think that this story would be on the front page of every major news network and newspaper in America – you would be wrong. Senator Johnson sent his own Op-Ed regarding this report to The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, USA Today, and many other publications and, to nobodies surprise, he was turned down for publication. We think that this had something to do with the fact that many, if not all, of these news companies are sponsored by Pfizer or Moderna and would rather keep in good standing with their financiers than tell the American people the truth about what happened during the COVID-19 Pandemic. We, at The Paradox Press, are not beholden to the Medical Mafia and for that reason, we have the ability to tell the truth. I hope you enjoy.
