| 5/1/26 |  Should Forced Abortions be Compulsory for all Minors? | Several weeks ago a respected ethics journal published a paper arguing that every pregnant minor should be subjected to a forced abortion, and that not doing so is a serious injustice and failure to provide proper care. In this episode I discuss and dissect the major flaws in this vacuous and reprehensible claim. ❤️ Become a Patreon supporter at: www.Patreon.com/LeftFootMedia ❤️ Become a Substack supporter at: www.thecounterculture.substack.com | — | ||||||

| 3/31/26 |  The Return Of A False Dichotomy About Sex And Conservatism | Last week a self-styled conservative women’s magazine announced, along with some rather surprising promotional visuals, that its next edition was going to be the “Sex Issue’. However well-meaning their intentions might be, their statements and claims about sex and conservatism see the return of an age old false dichotomy, and they miss the mark in some fundamentally important ways. ❤️ Become a Patreon supporter at: www.Patreon.com/LeftFootMedia ❤️ Become a Substack supporter at: www.thecounterculture.substack.com | — | ||||||

| 3/2/26 |  Will The Iran War Be the Ignominious Final Chapter For Trump? | Some serious thoughts, questions, and important Christian doctrinal considerations about the morality of the US war with Iran. In this episode of The Dispatches I pose some (hopefully) sober and consideration-worthy thoughts and questions about the US war with Iran. I was initially hesitant to broach this topic in a podcast, but the persistent and strident false dichotomies that have dominated online discourse since the missile strikes were launched convinced me to offer my thoughts. What if we don’t need to fall prey to a toxic and unhelpful ‘you’re either for us or against us’ mentality, but instead opted for a more measured third way which accepts the evil of the Iranian regime while also questioning the morality and prudence of Trump’s war with Iran? ❤️ Become a Patreon supporter at: www.Patreon.com/LeftFootMedia ❤️ Become a Substack supporter at: www.thecounterculture.substack.com | — | ||||||

| 12/4/25 |  A Dystopian Treatment of Persons With Down Syndrome | Earlier this week a NZ Judge ruled that a mother had been the victim of a treatment injury and was entitled to compensation because she chose not to abort her baby after antenatal screening failed to detect her daughter’s Down syndrome.

| 11/14/25 |  Understanding The Ferocious Civil War Now Raging on the US Right | Dieuwe and William join me to discuss the fierce civil war that is currently raging on the right of politics in the United States.

| 6/13/25 |  What Is The Christian Teaching on Civil Disobedience? | In light of the violence and destruction we’ve seen unfolding in Los Angeles over the past week or so, it seems pertinent to examine what Christianity teaches about civil disobedience.
