'Dune' Shows Us Why We Don't Need a Messiah
It’s been a little while for me to find something that I wanted to talk about. For the next few weeks, I have some thoughts. Let’s start with Dune and this business of having a “messiah” to bring. Because we already have one, and he’s Yeshua Hamashiach, not Lisan Al-Gaib. And if you have no idea what I’m talking about, go watch Dune and then listen to this podcast.

Why I Did NOT Vote for Trump in 2016
I couldn’t bring myself to vote for Trump in 2016, even though I came around to jumping on the Trump train in 2020. Why? I explain all my motivations and ethical struggles in this episode. I’ll note that I did NOT vote for Hillary Clinton either- that was never in the cards for me. But if it was Trump or staying out of it, I decided to stay out. Was that wrong?
