    Paul Coughlin on How To Stop Bullying & Why Christians Need to Stop Being So Nice (Ep. 43)

    Author and anti-bullying expert Paul Coughlin joins Mark Joseph to challenge the idea that Christians are called to be passive, weak, or unwilling to defend themselves and others. Coughlin, author of “No More Christian Nice Guy” and founder of The Protectors, explains the difference between aggression and healthy assertiveness—and why he believes some Christian teaching has unintentionally encouraged men and children to become doormats. Mark and Paul also discuss bullying in schools, homeschooling and socialization, the role of fathers, the lingering effects of COVID on children, and the complicated relationship between bullying and politics. Coughlin also shares the deeply personal childhood experiences that helped lead him to spend more than 20 years fighting bullying and teaching young people how to stand up for themselves and others.

    Cyrus Nowrasteh: The Filmmaker Behind The Movies Hollywood Tried to Stop (Ep. 40)

    Filmmaker Cyrus Nowrasteh joins Mark Joseph on the show for a wide-ranging conversation about a career spent bringing controversial true stories to the screen. Nowrasteh discusses his Iranian family background and the 1979 revolution, making The Day Reagan Was Shot, the political firestorm surrounding The Path to 9/11, and The Stoning of Soraya M., which was banned in Iran but became an underground hit there. He also reflects on The Young Messiah, Infidel, Sarah’s Oil, and why he believes filmmakers shouldn’t shy away from stories simply because powerful people may object. Nowrasteh also gives Mark an inside look at his newest film Dark Horse, starring Jim Caviezel as former Brazilian president Jair Bolsonaro, and discusses the obstacles surrounding its release. Along the way, Mark and Cyrus revisit the extraordinary events of the Reagan assassination attempt, the power of true stories and heroic figures on screen, Hollywood censorship, and Nowrasteh’s writing process after a career in which he says he has written or co-written more than 250 feature-length scripts.
