    EP 223: AI in Healthcare, AI surgeons and problems for the average patient, ICU nurse perspective

    In today’s episode Rita combines her passion for AI and her 15 years of experience as an ICU nurse to discuss AI and Healthcare. AI is being thrust upon us and sold to us as only being of benefit. Meanwhile, you have legislation being introduced in NY State that leaves the door open to restricting our access to it. You have hospitals replacing staff with AI and you have Elon Musk discouraging young people from even becoming doctors and surgeons because of AI. Rita encourages us to remember who we are and how we should respond to living through this ever evolving technological landscape.

    EP 222: Using your unique voice vs. living your truth & the contradictory call to take up A.I.

    By now we’ve all heard the phrase ‘Speak Your Truth’ or some variation of it.  As believers we know where our truth derives from. While the world tries to legislate its way into something better, we know that it can’t do any better than what God has already done. We live in an ever increasing age of technology, AI, self-idolization, and contradictions. In today’s episode, Rita will discuss why Your and Truth can’t go together, the difference between “living your truth” and “using your unique voice,” and why it doesn’t feel possible to embrace your unique self and AI at the same time.

    EP 221: Modern day eugenics & hardened hearts with Cecily Dickey

    “…you can actually live with peace and hope and courage and conviction if you know you’re living in a world held lovingly by your Heavenly Father.” - Cecily Dickey Today Rita is joined by her friend and former cohost, Cecily Dickey. One of the main themes of today’s conversation is balance. How do we, as believers, help unbelievers see what is right and true. How to be in this world but not of this world. How to stay informed but not consumed.  We live in a world that seeks to and encourages the elimination of suffering but as Christians we know that ‘easy’ doesn’t benefit us.  Rita and Cecily touch on the tragic story of YouTuber Jesse Ridgway and his wife choosing to abort their unborn child after receiving a Down Syndrome diagnosis. Hearts are being hardened {Romans 1:21} and truth is being exchanged for lies {Romans 1:25}. This conversation, between friends, is an encouraging one and another reminder of the importance of a firm foundation.

    EP 220: Big Government, your data, “private” property & the irony of celebrating 250 years of independence

    Eminent domain and property rights, limited government and surveillance state, data centers and anti-tech extremists…Rita’s fired up in today’s episode and by the end of it you will be too!  Does freedom mean the same thing to the government as it does to us? As we near the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence we should be reflecting on what the founders truly intended for this country - a government given authority by the people and meant to protect the rights of those people. Romans 12:2 tells us not to conform to the patterns of the world. We have only one allegiance and that’s to God. Not any side, person or party.  Today’s episode is short but outside of salvation and faith, one of the most important discussions we could be having.

    EP 219: Are We Good Enough for Liberty? with Lawrence W. Reed

    Motivated by his love for liberty, even writing the book, Are We Good Enough For Liberty?, Lawrence W Reed has traveled to 96 countries - reinforcing his view that people should be free. Most recently he’s served as President Emeritus of FEE, Foundation for Economic Education, with the mission of educating youth in freedom, free markets, small government, and personal character. Lawrence explains why character is crucial to maintaining liberty and reminds us that maintaining optimism is essential to creating change.  Today’s conversation will reassure you that economics isn’t too complicated a topic to understand and discuss what economics and small government should look like from a Christian worldview.

    EP 218: Cattle Ranch vs Data Center with Lily Hill Farms’ Avery Wrigglesworth

    Avery and Marc Wrigglesworth gave up their careers in international finance to become owners and operators of Avery’s family cattle ranch, Lily Hill Farms. Pivoting from a system that was failing to selling their beef and tallow directly to you, Avery and Marc have been able to create a profitable business - one with care and intention from start to finish. Even after being able to avoid losing Lily Hill Farms, Avery and Marc continue to face some very big obstacles...AI and Data Centers. In today’s episode you’re likely to learn something new about the farming industry and how its collision with AI is likely to affect us all.

    EP 217: How to Heal Modern Medicine: COVID and Control over Life & Death with Dr. Aaron Kheriaty

    Today’s guest, Dr. Aaron Kheriaty, MD, is a physician specializing in psychiatry and author of 5 books. He’s also had significant roles in medical ethics and public policy.  In today’s episode, Rita and Dr. Kheriaty examine some of the current problems with contemporary medicine - including how it relates to free speech, being allowed to challenge people and institutions, MAID (or Euthanasia), and the abandonment of the Hippocratic Oath - and how we might begin to start fixing it.  They also, unexpectedly, discuss Covid. For better or worse, Covid is an easy and recent example of how acknowledging issues within the system, asking questions, and having these conversations is often frowned upon - if not completely discouraged and censored. It was also an example of why it is absolutely vital, especially in a day and age when the moral separation in society and lack of a common foundation seems to be growing, to have conversations just like this.

    EP 216: Uncovering IVF with Josh Wood of Them Before Us

    Is there any ethical way to do IVF? More importantly, where does it lead? Regardless of whether you have the answer to those questions, today’s conversation is a compelling one.  Josh Wood, Executive Director of Them Before Us, joins Rita to expand on the topic of IVF. What is it opening the door to in the future? When you’re born, do you belong somewhere? What legislation/bills are being introduced? Does biology matter? What does it mean to be human? Is IVF actually pro-life? Infertility rates are on the rise and it’s likely you or someone you know has been touched by it. This is a sensitive but necessary conversation. Josh and Rita cover all the above questions and more in the hopes of equipping you with the information and confidence to have this discussion with the people in your life.  SPONSORS: EQUIP FOODS Code: RITA15 (15% off all orders) Link: www.equipfoods.com/rita15 ROWE CASA  Code: BOOMCLAP (20% off first order) Link: https://www.rowecasaorganics.com/?sca_ref=3468709.V2CVRBlBV1 GUEST: Josh Wood Them Before Us https://thembeforeus.com Them Before Us - Substack https://thembeforeus.substack.com Josh Wood - Substack https://www.everydayinterpreter.com Them Before Us - Podcast https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/them-before-us-podcast/id1694596050 Instagram https://www.instagram.com/j_k_wood?igsh=cXhveDdncXJ2aGcz PODCAST MENTIONS: Ep 104: Them Before Us: why we need a children's rights movement with Katy Faust https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-boom-clap-podcast/id1558282990?i=1000608113605 EP 122: Parents, YOU are the Anti-Woke Program with Katy Faust https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-boom-clap-podcast/id1558282990?i=1000628204154 EP 151: Pro-Child Politics with Katy Faust https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-boom-clap-podcast/id1558282990?i=1000669162284 IVF Patients Say a Test Caused Them to Discard Embryos.
