    Cornel West: Justice, Not Revenge

    In this episode of The Just Life with Benjamin Watson, Dr. Cornel West, philosopher, public intellectual, and prophetic voice for justice, joins Benjamin for a wide-ranging conversation on love, truth, and the moral demands of our time. Drawing from his famous declaration that “justice is what love looks like in public,” Dr. West explores the meaning of prophetic love in an age marked by division, tribalism, and moral crisis.  From addressing human suffering in Israel and Gaza to American militarism and the power of the blues they examine why love grounds justice, courage resists fear, and faith shapes public action.  Rooted in the Black prophetic tradition, West urges us to reject double standards, find our voice and help make wrongs right.

    Angela Stanton King: Mothers, Babies and The Measure of Justice

    Benjamin Watson sits down with Angela Stanton King to unpack what a “just life” looks like when convictions meet compassion.  Once incarcerated and shackled while giving birth, the Auntie Angie’s House founder has become a fierce advocate for criminal justice reform, family restoration, and maternal health. Exploring her journey from prison to purpose, they discuss the fight for dignity, responsibility, and bridge-building beyond party lines—how ordinary people can create extraordinary change and why serving moms and protecting children belongs at the heart of justice.  Check out the video version at https://www.youtube.com/@thejustlifeofficial Learn more about your ad choices.

    Russell Moore: Christianity Beyond Culture Wars

    Benjamin Watson and Dr. Russell Moore consider what justice looks like as a way of life: awakening conscience, resisting tribalism, repenting and reforming, stewarding influence, and choosing small faithful actions over grandstanding. Through a Christian lens, they invite listeners to trade outrage for wisdom, recover the strangeness of the gospel, and build communities that embody truth, compassion, and hope.

    Brooke Baldwin: Is the News Broken—or Are We?

    Benjamin Watson sits down with journalist, TV host, and bestselling author Brooke Baldwin (Netflix’s The Trust; author of Huddle) for a candid conversation about justice, empathy, and truth. Brooke revisits their first on-air meeting during Ferguson in 2014 and sets the record straight on a viral “cut-off” moment. She shares how major stories—from Parkland to George Floyd—reshaped her, why media lost public trust, and how compassion can bridge today’s divides. Brooke also opens up about corporate power dynamics, advocating for women, and rediscovering identity after leaving CNN. Practical takeaways include how to mentor across differences, listen without interrupting, and lead with dignity. “The just life,” Brooke says, “means living in the light—with truth and integrity.” Check out the video version at https://www.youtube.com/@thejustlifeofficial Learn more about your ad choices.
