    Sound of Freedom with Michael Hobbes AND Human Trafficking re-release

    Sound of Freedom with Michael Hobbes AND Human Trafficking re-release

    Like so many other mostly imaginary topics, human trafficking is in the news again. Michael Hobbes—ever heard of him??—came by so Sarah could tell him about Sound of Freedom, a surprise hit summer movie that promises it can end child slavery, but only if you buy as many tickets as you can. Then, you can hear the episode we released on "human trafficking"—what it isn't, and what it is—back in 2019.

    Sound of Freedom with Michael Hobbes AND Human Trafficking re-release [extended cut]

    Sound of Freedom with Michael Hobbes AND Human Trafficking re-release [extended cut]

    Today we released a conversation Mike and I had about Sound of Freedom, a movie I watched primarily so I could tell him about it and spare him the experience of watching it himself. Here is an extended cut of that journey through madness. I have never had a better time talking about a movie that made me so miserable.

    Love,
    Sarah

Long time fan

This is one of the few podcasts I listen to on normal speed so it lasts longer 💚

HaliBuxman ,

Totally addicted

I love Sarah I love ALL OF THIS. I could listen to her talk about virtually anything at this point. Top notch in all ways.

Olivia Pasquarelli ,

This show rocks

I’ve been a listener for years and I’ve learned so much along the way. Leaving a 5 star review on here to counteract the weirdly devout Sound of Freedom truther review a few back.
