My parents have now been married for 46 years and I want to explain three of the greatest

gifts they've given me in that time and how they've shaped me forever. Also the Oscars were last night and one message we heard might actually come as a pleasant surprise. We have a special guest here today to break down the Oscars and Paris Fashion Week.

“We've got all of this and much more on today's episode of Relatable.”

Hey guys, welcome to Relatable. Happy Monday. Hope everyone had a wonderful weekend. We have a full and very fun show for you today. We don't have time to talk about one of the most pressing issues and one of the most pressing

and depressing news events going on right now and that is the repeated Islamic attacks

that have occurred in various parts of the United States over the past few weeks.

You know, I have a lot to say about that. I've got a lot of commentary but we will be talking about that more fully on Wednesday. I know today is typically our theology episode which we will be talking about theology and we will be talking certainly about an evergreen topic, especially at the top and a little bit towards the end as well.

But this is a little bit of a special episode. I do just want to remind you of a few things. Number one, God's eternal plan of redemption is definitely 100% going off without a hitch, nothing throws him off, nothing takes him back, nothing surprises him. He's not wondering what Iran's next move is, he's not wondering what the Trump administration

is going to decide. He's not sitting back and thinking what the consequences could be to all of this. He is completely sovereign over all of it. There are no maverick molecules in all of creation. God is not suspended by or limited by time.

He's not limited by space. He is not traveling along the same linear timeline as we are. He is suspended in the eternal now. He sees the crucifixion just as clearly as he sees this moment, just as clearly as he sees a thousand years from now, he knows everything that is going to happen in his eternal plan

of redemption to bring his people to himself, to claim victory once and for all in complete and total dominion that is manifested in his kingship. He knows all of it. He isn't control of all of it. He has planned all of it.

He knows the day and the hour unlike anyone else that Jesus is coming back to defeat the enemy once and for all into live and perfect peace forever and ever. One day there will be no more wars. There will be no more rumors of war. There will be no more rulers.

There will be no more politics.

“I think probably there will be no more podcasts.”

Don't quote me on that. I'm not totally sure, but there will be no more disagreement because we God's people who have been claimed as his people through Christ are Messiah will live in perfect peace under his perfect rule forever and ever and that day is sure. So Christians, because we are sure of that victory, because we have that hope to cling

to, like we can live boldly, we can live joyfully. Yes, we pay attention to what's going on in the news, because what's going on in the news has an impact on our neighbor, has an impact on our lives, has an impact on the country in which God is providentially and purposely placed us. We care about politics simply because we care about people and politics affects policy,

affects people and people matter to God and to us, but our joy isn't tied to these things. Our outrage isn't tied to these things. Yes, we might have expressions of righteous anger and righteous outrage, but our joy in our steadiness and our hope, our calmness remains the same because we have assurance that vast anchor for our souls and that is Jesus Christ.

The things are constantly changing, the algorithm is constantly moving, but Jesus Christ

“is the same forever and he is the source of our joy.”

Psalm 16 reminds us that in his presence is pleasure forevermore. We have fullness of joy at his right hand, not anywhere else, not in the future, not in a promotion, not in that thing that we hope to buy or hope to have, not in the next election, but in Jesus' presence. And because of God's grace, through Christ, we have access to God's presence in total confidence.

And so no matter what's going on in your life, no matter what's going on in the world, no matter what's going on in social media, that is the hope that we have. That is the steadiness that we have and I'm just so thankful for it as I know all of you are too.

Also, a couple other reminders, that was first reminder, the reminder that we give every

Monday, a couple other things. I guess this isn't so much of a reminder, I actually meant to say this at the very top. The other different setup, you can see me much more closely. And I know changes hard, okay? There's going to be some of you out there that I don't like the changes that I don't

like seeing your face that close, back up off the camera. But here I am.

“And you will get used to it just like you got used to this new sad and we've had different”

lighting and coloring changes over the years and some of the better than others. But this is a really good upgrade. We got an upgrade in camera and lighting and all of that and hopefully you feel that this is even more engaging than it was before. I love it.

I'm excited about it. Very thankful to the team for setting this all up and we will even have some more improvements and changes. As you can see, behind me, I've got a new guest setup too, which you will see at the end of this show for that fun segment.

Another reminder, share the arrows, October 10th, Dallas, Texas. If you are a Christian woman, do not miss this, do not miss this. We only have 7,000 tickets to sell and we've already sold more than half of that. And the event is in October. Praise God.

They met at Southern Arkansas University. They dated for six months. They were engaged for about six months. My mom had this resolution that she told me about a long time ago. It was a resolution for herself that she would not get married as a teenager.

And her reason for that was that her parents had gotten pregnant with her and then married as teenagers, and even though that had technically worked out for them, she also saw that it caused a lot of turbulence in their lives. So one month after she turned 20, and while my dad was still 19, they got married in Alderado Arkansas.

And a year and a half later, they had my oldest brother three years after that. They had my other brother, and then seven years after that, I came along. They moved cities, they changed jobs, and they have over 46 years overcome many challenges. Staying married for almost half a century is a huge accomplishment that they would say has been made possible by the grace of God.

Both of their parents had unstable marriages, both of them.

“I think my mom and dad craves stability.”

So they worked really hard to ensure that my brothers and I enjoyed a level of peace in our home that they didn't really have as much growing up. And I want to honor all of that, their 46 years, by highlighting three of the greatest gifts that my parents have given me. And I hope that these things are an encouragement to you, whether you are looking for your

future spouse, whether you are married, and especially if you've been married just a little while, maybe you're on the clasp of raising children, you're in a tough season. I just hope that this gives you the spirit of endurance and perseverance that my parents really instilled in me. So the first gift, the first greatest gift that my parents gave me was faith in Christ.

My parents, my grandmother, who lived with us throughout my life, taught me about Jesus from the earliest ages possible. Hims, Bible stories, prayer, were a normal part of our routines.

“And the reason I know so many Hims, why they're lyrics, have been etched into my heart”

is because of the Hims, my mom, and I would sing before bed at night, that she was taught going to church, growing up.

My mom has always been a diligent prayer and a studyer of God's Word. She probably has hundreds

of journals of her prayers and thoughts about Scripture that I watched her fill over the years in her morning routine with her coffee and her journal and her Bible and her Bible study. And my dad made sure is the leader of our family that we were in church every week and ensured that my brothers and I had a Christ-centered education.

So my love for Scripture, my passion to understand it, to defend it, was instilled in me because as a baby, I was taught the Word of God. I was taught the truth of the gospel because I lived in a home where Jesus' authority was just a given. And nowadays, this phrase I was raised in a Christian home is usually accompanied by a story

“of trauma or of what's called churchhood or abuse or hypocrisy and then it's followed”

by a narrative of leaving the faith and finding true identity and happiness and liberation inside themselves. If you watch documentaries or you see on social media or in Hollywood, there are virtually no positive depictions of Christian parents raising their children to go to church, to memorize Scripture, to pray, to get baptized, to help others and to love Jesus.

It's all cast in this very harsh light of so-called fundamentalism or extremism or hyper-patriarchy,

repression or legalism, and you never really see depicted in the mainstream.

There are kinds of religious homes that are represented in this negative way. It's only of a Christian homes that are displayed like this. And while that may be accurate for a sliver of families that identify as Christian that kind of repressive, hyper-strict home, that is not representative of most Christian families in America and it's certainly not representative of the one that I grew up with.

Many pieces of my upbringing are echoed in so many stories of deconstruction and apostasy today. I was born to Southern Christian parents. I was taught about Jesus from the earliest ages. I went to a Southern Baptist church at least twice a week. My entire upbringing, I attended youth group where sexual purity was emphasized.

I attended a conservative Christian private school kindergarten through 12th grade. Like the popular conclusion to that story is, well, now I resent it. I wish I had been exposed to more. We hear a lot of people say I wish I had more experience as growing up. Now I hate the church I was raised in.

Now I see the ignorance of my pastor and my parents and now I've gone out into the world and found what it has to offer me and it's so much better and so much more free than the myopic worldview that I was raised in. But that's not me. That is so not my story.

I went to a secular college. I had a taste of what the world has to offer. I tried my hand at hedonism. I saw the different ways to look at the world and let me tell you. I am so thankful for how I was raised for the faith and the sincerity and the consistency

and the perseverance of faith that my parents gave me what a tremendous gift. The gift of salvation, eternal salvation by grace through faith and Christ, the gift of wisdom, the gift of biblical clarity, the gift of seeing all of that walked out in parenting and marriage and business and I know not everyone listening or watching has that foundation and maybe you're thinking gosh, is everything lost because I wasn't raised

that way.

Well ultimately, your salvation is secure in Jesus.

But what an incredible blessing it is to not be able to even recall one day that I didn't

hear about him.

“My parents would be the first to tell you that they weren't perfect because no one is.”

They're probably things they would have done differently but there is no question that they purposely and intentionally ensured that all three of us my brothers and I knew where to find the answers to our questions and that is in God and his word. So that is the first greatest gift that my parents gave me that I am so thankful for and we'll get to number two and just a second.

Let me go ahead and pause. Let me tell you about our next sponsor and that is we heart nutrition, so thankful for we heart nutrition, it's where I get all of my supplements, my multivitamin, my iron, my omega threes, my magnesium, my probiotic, I go on and on every supplement I take is from we heart nutrition.

I love it because all of their ingredients come in the most bioavailable form. That means it's the form of that nutrient that your body actually absorbs.

“You don't want to waste a bunch of money on a product that you're going to take and”

is not actually going to help your body, I know that it's helping because I've had several rounds of blood work recently just to make sure that my health is optimized and I can tell that these supplements are making me feel my best and are actually giving my body what it needs, plus I love that this is an unapologetically Christian pro-life family centered company.

They donated percentage of every sales to pregnancy centers, just absolutely amazing. Go to WeHeartnutrition.com, use code alley, you'll get 20% off when you use my code. That's WeHeartnutrition.com code alley. The second gift, the second wonderful gift that my parents have given me and their 46 years of marriage that I've been around for 34 of and that is their marriage.

That is the second greatest gift, their marriage.

I knew that my parents would never get a divorce and you might hear that and be skeptical

and ask, well, how could you know that and I just did, they argued like any married couple. I heard some of those arguments, they had seasons that were more tense than others. I'm sure, but I never ever felt that their future that my future was unsure. We live in a divorce culture, you read op-ed after op-ed in the New York Times and the Atlantic and the New Yorker. Glorifying divorce, divorcing your spouse when things get tough when

the person turns out to be different than what you thought. When you feel like you've lost yourself when you fall into the lie that your children would be happier if you were able to pursue your happiness outside of the confines of marriage. It's glamorized as this kind of like exciting stop and a person's journey of self-love and self-discovery and not only is this very rosy depiction of divorce just completely

inaccurate for most people, it also totally negates the negative effect of force has on kids. Unless a marriage is right with abuse and is wildly tumultuous, divorce really does not bring peace. It doesn't bring peace for people, especially not children.

It brings confusion, it brings chaos, a loss in a child's sense of belonging and acceptance and stability and their future and more than anything else in the world. This married mother-father structure is the most protective, stabilizing force for kids. It is the greatest predictor of a child's success and their soundness in mind. Not perfect marriages, but stable marriages.

And I am so thankful that both my husband and I have been given this gift from our parents. We do not take for granted that both of our parents are still married.

“As parents are on year 47, I believe this year, we both grew up in homes where divorce”

was just never an option.

And that has set us up so well and we are just both really grateful for it. It wasn't just that the cohesion of my parents' marriage was clearly important growing up. It was also that character to my parents wasn't really important, integrity was a really big deal in our home, even outside of just marriage. I knew my dad and my mom, but specifically my dad when it came to business and things

like that to be a man of integrity, a big value in our family was telling the truth. We would get in trouble, yes, for a disobey, going against the rules, but we would get in way more trouble if we lied about it, telling the truth, even when it is hard was something that was just, it was emphasized so much growing up and it's still informs not only how I do the show, but also how I hope to live my life, how I do business, how I navigate

my friendships, how I'm a mom myself, don't lie, don't be sneaky. If you ding someone's car and no one saw you do it, you ride a note.

on your word, you don't betray someone, you go out of your way to be above reproach to be the bigger person, you communicate clearly so that there's no hidden tension or misunderstandings with a friend or a business partner, you take ownership of what you're doing even beyond

what's expected for you, and I haven't always met that standard in every single stage

of my life, but that is the standard that was set for me, that is the standard that I am always trying to strive toward, and so in addition to seeing my parents work out conflict

“stick together even when times were hard, I think this was one of the biggest reasons”

that I knew I could trust my parents to be faithful to each other and to us. I never saw them lie to anyone, I never saw them say one thing to our friends or teachers or our pastor in an act another way in another setting or in private, even in my teenage years when I didn't always agree with them, I did always know that I could trust them, that they were never going to betray me, they were never going to walk out, they were

never going to betray each other, I mean what an incredible gift, that is very rare, and

I'm just so, I'm just so thankful that my parents gave that to me, and the third gift that my parents gave me that you've heard me talk about a lot is Christian education. My dad always said that he would do whatever it took, however many hours he had to work, however many shifts he had to work to make sure my brothers and I attended a Christian school. My grandmother, my grandfather, my mom all worked in the public school system, they didn't

have a specific bias against public school, my parents are products of the public school system of your, that's really all my parents knew, and certainly it would have been easier and cheaper to send us all to public school, especially if we lived in a good area, which

we did, but that is something my parents never even considered compromising on.

We would receive a Christian education, my parents made sure of that.

“I went to the same Christian school, kindergarten through 12th grade, was it perfect?”

No, I had some not-so-great teachers, the culture wasn't always the best, the community wasn't always the best, and many ways, the school is not the same today as it was when I was growing up, but I would not trade my education for anything. In addition to the Holy Spirit and my parents, my kindergarten through 12th grade education is responsible for instilling in me, the Word of God, the ability to memorize it, to defend

it, to think logically, to reason, to read, to write, to argue, despite the fact that I've been reading the ESV, the English-standard version of the Bible for 12 plus years, since I was in college, almost all of my scripture memory in my mind is in the NIV, the new international version, because that is the version that we read in church and in school growing up, and that just goes to show how crucial it is to disciple your kids from an early age, because what they learn

now, they will keep with them as adults, even more than the things they learn as adults.

“That Jubilee debate, every time now, since that came out, I think in October, every time”

I go speak, I always have several people come up to me and say, "How did you study for that? How did you prepare for that?" Oh my goodness, I love that Jubilee debate, which I'm so thankful for by the way. The Holy Spirit was there, absolutely. You've heard me talk about that. That was felt, I think, by everyone there. Yes, it took a lot of practice and preparation and skill experience. Yes, my parents, and so many ways, prepared me for that just by how they raised

me, but also 13 years of Christian education, a decade of a Wana, eight years of youth group, decades of Sunday school, you just can't beat the evangelical upbringing when it comes to knowing the Bible. And I am so thankful for it. I use it every single day, not just in this podcast, but as a parent. And I am so thankful for 13 years of hiding God's Word in my heart in every single subject that I studied. There are a lot of people who insist that it really doesn't

make a difference. Whether your child goes to public school or to Christian school, you know, they'll say that God is sovereign over their salvation and that is absolutely true. God is sovereign over everyone's salvation. And it is true that there are Christian school graduates who are now apostates. It is true that there are public school graduates who are missionaries and incredible evangelists and apologists. But how we raise our kids? What we teach them? What we allow others

teach them really matters. How we disciple our kids? Matters. We have a choice between 13 years, eight hours a day, five days a week of our children being discipled by at best, an unbiblical world view at worth an anti-biblical world view, or our kids being discipled for 13 years, five days a week, eight hours a day by a biblical world view. Which one do you think will give them a better grasp of the scriptures? The hours of discipleship that you give your children at night and on the

weekend, they matter immensely. They absolutely help lay a wonderful foundation. But when you compare

even if all of them are dedicated to discipleship, which let's be honest, most of them are not,

“they're really pale and comparison to the influence they are under for far more time at school. So”

let's just look at that practically. Now I understand, as I say, that there are a few nuances to that conversation and depending on your situation, there may be some exceptions. But to me, as a rule, there really is no question that parents have to do everything possible to ensure their kids at home or in school have an education that is explicitly Christ centered because two plus two equals four only because God made the world. And people kind of like are taken aback. When I say

that first of all, I'm not the first person to say that. Anyone who understands logic and who understands

basic fundamental theology recognizes that truth is truth because it's God's truth. Two plus two equals four because God made the world because he is the creator of it. So he's the authority over all of it. He is the source of all truth. He is the inventor of logic. He is the logo. He is the

“great mathematician. He invented math. He is the maker of the universe in every number, every”

data point, every molecule that it holds. So if you have the option, don't let your child go through their entire upbringing without learning that, which is really the foundation of the Christian world view. Like so many Christian children are raised not knowing that, not believing that, not understanding that and then we wonder why today we look at all of the studies that we have and so many even professing Christians don't know the basics of Christianity. If we don't know where truth

comes from, like who the author of history is, who created languages, who is the source of all mathematical and scientific truth, it's going to be very difficult to navigate a world who is constantly assaulting biblical reality. So I just want to say thank you to my mom and dad for not only allowing me to have that education, but for bringing me to church, maybe even when I

“didn't want to and I was little and for staying married and for loving each other, through a lot of”

highs and a lot of lows and giving me an example of what persevering and Christian marriage looks like it is a great and wonderful gift that will pay off for the rest of my life and not only my life, but my children's lives and my grandchildren's lives. So thank you mom and dad and happy anniversary. All right, we are going to get into a segment with a special guest, a guest. The two guys have been missing for quite a while now. We're going to be talking about a lot more light-hearted

things in this next segment. Some of you love this segment that we're about to do that we're about to bring back from the past that we haven't done in a while and some of you are like I don't really care about that stuff. But for those of you who like our fashion ratings, you'll want to stick around

with our special guest in just a second. Let me pause, tell you about our next sponsor for the day

first and that is good ranchers y'all. So thankful for good ranchers. America turns 250 this year and we can honor America by honoring American farmers and ranchers. We can make sure that the meat that we buy is supporting this industry which has served as the backbone of the American economy and so many ways for so many years. But has really struggled because of over-regulation because of over-reliance on foreign meat that is being imported for cheaper but is also less quality.

We don't know what's in it. So let's support our American farmers and ranchers by getting all of our meat from good ranchers. It's what we do. It's shipped to our front door on dry ice every month. We love our better than organic chicken. We love our craft beef. We love our steaks. I mean, we rely on this every night in this sucky home. It makes our life so much easier so much more convenient. Ben and Corlie, Christian, family centered, America-loving business owners also great people to support.

So make your life better all around. Get your meat from good ranchers. Go to goto ranchers.com. Use Code Ali a check out for $25 off. That's good ranchers.com. Code Ali. Okay y'all, we've got a very special guest for this special segment. Also, we've got a new guest

set up and who better to try it out first than producer Bree Y'all. She's back. She's here. So many

of y'all have been asking how she's doing, what she's up to. And of course, we're going to talk about all things fashion when it comes to the Oscars and Paris Fashion Week. But first, I thought y'all would like to take it an update. Just about how you're doing, how your new job is. You went back to ministry work in September. Yeah. And we want to hear how it's been going.

It's been really good. I feel like a lot of people who know me know that global missions is like something I'm super passionate about. And so especially in like the areas of the world that are spiritually darkest. And I am getting to do that now. So it's just been really good. I feel like it's exactly where God wants me. And it was tough to leave here. And all of you guys,

“but it's been good. It was a good move. I think so. Gosh, I was thinking about everything that”

happened in the world and in relation to this show as soon as you left. Because you left. Was it your birthday? That was like the last day, September 1st. It was a couple of days after that. Okay. Yeah. So September 5th. Yeah. That's five days before Charlie was murdered. So obviously so much came from that. We had share the arrows. We had Jubilee. We had the whole Candace-Dohans thing. Yes. We had Hillary Clinton. We had so much

that he's gone on over the past few months after you left. And I don't know exactly. Like what God was doing with all of that. He, you know, does everything perfectly. And I'm so thankful for the team that we have that just stepped right up. And we were able to move forward seamlessly. Yeah. But man, so much has just happened over the past few months. Okay. Have you ever thought even while you're like loving your job and so fulfilled there? About some of these things and thinking,

“hmm, like how would I, what would we be talking about on relatable? Or how would I produce this episode?”

I think about that all the time. You deal. I'll just do part of yourself. Yeah. It is part of it. I do think that now I'm a little bit just naturally more unplugged from some things. There are a lot of like stories. I'm still on X. There are a lot of stories on X that I scroll past. And to be honest, I'm just like, that's none of my business. Yeah. That's none of my business. I don't know. Even so I'm glad that that doesn't have to be my business anymore.

This would have been my business. Now it's not. And so that I think for certain things that are happening has been good for me to be able to like unplug and detach and not pay as much attention to. But yeah, a lot of stories I come across. I'm like, that would be one. That would be one. I did. I have seen you talk about a few things. Yeah. You talked about the Olympics a lot. Oh, yeah. And you also talked about Alyssa Liu and her upbringing and all that. So sometimes relatable

and brief thoughts and her postings do still coincide. I'm telling you, I tell people when I worked on the show. I was like, I just align with the show really well. I wasn't pretending.

Yeah, this was really as, yeah, I feel like that was just natural. So ultimately, she was

fired for being a swift. And that is the untold tea. Yep. Of why she had to leave for Lily. So spread that. Yeah, spread that around. Not really. No, we're very happy for Bri. She was at share the arrows. Hopefully, maybe it'll be at share the arrows. Again, maybe this next year. We'll see you hopefully. And you'll be able to see her there. But I'm so glad that we have you here for your updates. So glad we're doing home. Yes. As you know,

the relatable audiences the best and so totally. They think of you and pray for you. So continue doing that and just send her some encouragement. But now we are into much more important things. Yes. And that is your scars. Okay. So you are still our Hollywood liaison. We don't have any representation in Hollywood for relatable because I don't watch these awards show. So first, I want you to tell us before we get into the fashion ratings. What would on last night?

Yeah, I will say I was less annoyed at this Oscar's overall than I typically am. So some some of them, I think, have toned it down a little bit because I think they understood how annoying they were starting to be. Yeah. Conan O'Brien hosted, I typically love him. He had some jokes that I thought were not great. He had some jokes about Trump that didn't land for me. Not because they were about Trump. I just didn't think they were funny. But for the most and there were some

political speeches. There always are. But for the most part, I felt like it was fine. One thing I've

noticed about the Oscars now is that like all of the movies are not movies that like the average person would watch. Yeah. So I saw posts that were like, I didn't even know the Oscars were happening. And I'm like, yeah, it's because you didn't see any of the movies that are nominated. So I didn't watch most of them either. I was good to say, had you seen any of the movies nominated?

“Life is too short. I feel like to watch movies that I think are going to sell. I thought that was”

the name of the movie. Okay. No. That's how I feel about books too. I used to be like, if I started a book, I've got to finish it just as matter of principle. Yeah. Like, life is too short for this. Yeah. I bought a book at the airport the other day. It's called Sandwich. Sorry to this author. But I started reading it and it was just a bunch. It was like, oh, so funny, blah, blah, all of the

reviews. And it had like five F bombs in the first two pages. I went to the airport bookstore and

of the movies like with Timothy Shamele who I don't think won anything. I heard that they were actually kind of good. I forget what the name, Marty Supreme is the one he was in. I don't watch

“that either. But yeah. I mean, it got nominated a lot. I think. Yeah. I heard that he was really good in it.”

So good for him. Good for him. Good for him. Good for Timothy Shamele. He didn't win, though. So yeah. He's already him. Yeah. Okay. Let's talk about some of these key moments. We have a lot that we could play, but I don't want to exhaust our audience with the idiocy's of Hollywood. Jimmy Kimmel, he was serving as a presenter rather than a host. He took a jab at CBS over its decision to cancel the late show with Steven Colby or a Harrisott III.

As you know, there are some countries whose leaders don't support free speech. I'm not a liberty to say which. Let's just leave it at North Korea and CBS. Okay. So I think he's talking about canceling Steven Colbyer, but also talking about the whole James Talleriko thing, which we talked about on our show. I don't know if this was one of the stories where you're like, that's none of my business. But James Talleriko was supposed to be on the

Steven Colbyer show. But then CBS was like, oh, no, you can't do that. And Talleriko and Steven Colbyer was like, this is censorship. There are afraid of you. Trump is afraid of you. And so Trump

“orchestrated this, but really it was just that it violated the rule that you have to give equal”

airtime to an opponent. So not answer public an opponent, but his Democrat opponent, Jasmine Crocket and they weren't willing to do that. So they just had to cancel it and air it on YouTube and went

viral. He Talleriko was able to raise like $2 million. And so this is not an anti-free speech thing.

This is just like a long standing since like 1936 rule that the FAA has had. So typical Jimmy Kimmer. Typical Jimmy Kimmer also, we'll just say he was announcing, I think, short documentary. And the one that won was about CBS reporter. So I thought that was a little funny, but on it. And we made a job at Melania. We don't even have to play that one. Basically, like Trump is going to be so mad. Yeah, but her documentary wasn't nominated. You saw the documentary. I did.

Was it good? I loved it. Yeah. I loved it. Anyone who's like really into history, the history of like the presidents will find it really interesting. It is, he made a joke about like, oh, it's a lot of her trying on shoes. It is a lot about like her fashion and design and stuff like that. So I loved it. But I get why, you know, Jimmy Kimmer, maybe wouldn't like it. So did you learn anything about Melania that you didn't know? Yeah, I mean, there were some things I would have done differently. There

are some things that they spent a lot of time on that I was like, okay, we get it. But, but yeah, I mean, and it's just a lot of like really good blowouts her hair looked amazing. I was wondering if they did her hair and make a book camera because I want to see that how they get it. They didn't

do it on camera. She just always was already. She's walking like that. Yeah. Okay, another moment that I

thought was a really sweet moment that you don't usually see at the Oscars. This is an actress that I've, I've never heard of because I've never watched Hamlet. And I don't know what Hamlet is. But people keep telling me that I need to watch it. Did you see Hamlet? No, you haven't seen it. But it's about Shakespeare. Okay, that surprised me. I feel like I would like it. Okay, so there's a reason why it's so similar to the word Hamlet. Yes. Okay. Yeah. Good. I'm like, okay, we need to come up with

some new words. She won for Best Actress in Hamlet. And she dedicated her speech to motherhood, Sussex. You, Fred, I love you, man. I love you. You're the most incredible dad, you're my best friend. And I want to have 20,000 more babies with you. I do. I do. And I love my little girl who is eight months who is absolutely no idea what's going on and is probably dreaming of milk. But this is kind of a big deal. And I love you. And I love being your mom. And I can't wait to discover

life beside you. It's Mother's Day in the UK today. So I would like to dedicate this to the beautiful chaos of a mother's heart. Okay, well, it's your reaction to that. So sweet.

“I know that the movie is about them losing their son. So I believe it was named Hamlet. Okay,”

didn't see the movie. It might be wrong. But she says in that speech, she's like, this collided, me doing this real collided with me being a mother. And so she was able to like really glean a lot from that. And I just thought that that was really sweet. It felt like a good use of

like the art itself. So yeah, I don't know all Oscar speeches, but I've never heard a speech dedicated

to motherhood. I've seen people think their mom, maybe I don't know if I've seen people think

and saying something to your husband. I want to have 20,000 more babies with you. That's just

“not usually what you see. I remember, um, was it Kieran Colkan? Is that his name? He said something”

similar to his wife when he was winning. I don't think it was Oscars. I don't remember what it was. And that was really, it was the Oscars. Okay. And that was really sweet. But you know, a lot of times you see someone like Michelle Williams or whoever it is, someone going up there and being like, if I hadn't had an abortion, I wouldn't have been able to accomplish all these things. Right. Well, obviously being a mom and accomplishing this thing, these things is possible at the same

time. And even if it's not motherhood, it's better. Yeah. So I just thought that was really sweet. Yeah. So it's typically seen moments like that. Yeah. And I like her. I've seen her in a couple of things.

She's good. Well, I want to watch Hamlet. Maybe I want to read it first and then watch it. Yeah.

It just feels like I can't talk when I say Hamlet. Have you seen that bit? This is kind of going off the reservation. But have you seen that bit by Nate Pregazzi, where he's at Walmart? And he is looking for a hammock. And he's like, do you all sell hammocks? And the Walmart employee is like, I, I don't know what you're talking about. He's like, I'm saying that correctly, right? Is it Hamlet?

“Is it Hamlet? Am I just saying that wrong? That's what this reminds me of. It's going to get confusing”

in my mind. Quick pause to tell you about my next sponsor. It is Patriot Mobile. Patriot Mobile is not just a wireless provider.

This is really important. That one on. It is very important. I haven't seen these.

I purposely don't see them before, but you say a list of outfits that you thought stood out for one reason or another. Although I will say, I posted one of my stories last night

that I thought was amazing and you responded and said, forgetful. Yes, I just wanted to give you a

taste of the disagreements. So yeah, we may not. This might get spicy. We'll see. Okay. Now let's decide on our scale. Yeah. Okay. Is 10 the best or the worst? 10 it. Let's 10 is the best. 10 is the best. It does make the most sense. Just sometimes I just like to throw people off. Okay, 10 is the best. Yeah. One is the worst. All right. Let's do full screen 21. This is McKinna Grace. Who's McKinna Grace? Who is she? She is 19. So she's a baby. Okay. She's been

in, she used to play like the kid version of every actress ever. So now she's an adult. Okay. This is her. Looks like Nagen trainer from here. It's hard to say right. Okay. Give me your, give me your rating. Oh, you're already skeptical. I loved this. Okay. I would give her an eight. Okay. Oh, her gloves don't go all the way down. Is that a sash that she's kind of wearing around her back? Sash. I think okay. It does fit her really nicely. I would say that this is

maybe in her color season a little bit hard to tell. I'll give it. You know, I'll give it a seven and a half. It does fit her nicely. I don't like it when actresses don't wear things that fit them nicely.

“Right. Right. So yes. It's very like Hollywood glam. True. I think that's why I liked it.”

Yeah. Yeah. Okay. I'll give it a seven now. Let's do our Fave Girl Jessie Buckley. She's also got the Valentine's going on. Yeah. Thought. I hated this one. Oh. You could we'll probably see a theme as we go through these. They were all kind of wearing the same colors.

I mean, it could be so much worse, but I would give it probably a four. Okay. So I, I don't want

“the top thing on her. You know, I feel like that takes away from the dress. I feel that the dress”

underneath it would probably fit like be pretty and fit nicely. Red looks very good against her skin. Her red lip stick looks really good. I won't wonder the other. Yeah. I want the underneath dress to be a fitted red dress or I want her to do the pink. Yeah. Taffeta thing going on. Okay, I don't, I don't want both. So I'm sorry, Jessie. I really like you, but yeah, I probably would rate it maybe a little bit higher than a four. I'll go with the five. Okay. Just for

conversation, Jessie. And this is Moana. Right. Yeah. I feel like she plays Moana in my wrong. I don't know. She don't want to think she sings for Moana. I'm so sorry. If I got that wrong, I don't know. You're not sure. I don't know. I don't know. I don't even want to try it. But yeah. Okay. I'm so sorry. But I do not like it in any way. Yeah. No. No. I don't like it in any way. She's very beautiful. Yeah. No. She does nothing for her. She is. I don't know why we

needed to put roses over the boobs. You know. Yeah. We need the hip thing going on. It's like three different wedding dresses into one and it does nothing for her figure. I'm curious what the back looks like. I. Yeah. I'm going to give this a two. Ooh. Okay. I was going to say three. Okay. It's not a bad color on her. Not everyone can pull off this cream color. Yeah. But yeah. Not another shape and everything. It's very distracting. Okay. Gracie Abrams is a singer.

She's a singer. She's dating Paul Mascol who was in HamNet. Okay. I'm not talking. Okay. I mean like objectively. No. It's objectively. No. But she can pull it off.

“I mean, she looks amazing. But the outfit I think is awful. And I will say she wears things like”

this all the time. It's just for me. She's so beautiful. Yeah. This is definitely her style. And I know she's catching strays because she's not even an actress. So I'm sorry to her. Sorry to this woman. But sorry. I don't love it. I love the low rise. No. She's probably one of the only like this body type can pull off the low rise. Yeah. That was in in the early 2000s. Yeah. You were Grace Abrams. You would have loved the early 2000s. Truly. But objectively. No.

So I hit it with three. Okay. I was going to say two. Okay. Really don't like it. Okay. Now here is what we disagree on. Here is a rose burn. Yeah. Okay. Full screen five.

Now she is in brightsmaids. Yes. And how has she not aged at all? She looks incredible.

That was like 15 years ago with not movie came out. Yeah. She does. She's beautiful.

“I think she's 43. Maybe. Oh wow. Yeah. She looks really good. The dress is okay.”

Like it's pretty. But I think she could do better. I mean, it's no. You know what? I love it. I'm not even going to be kind of like, I love it so much. Okay. I love it so much. I posted it on my stories. The only one I posted. I loved it. Okay. I could see I think a lot of people will disagree with me. I think they'll think it's beautiful. I think it's okay. I'll give the six. I think it fits so well. I'm going to give her a nine. Okay. And then we've got our boy Marty. It's a pre-emptive.

Timothy Campbell. Yes. Pants to big. Pants to big. He is a facial hair looks like Jack Sparrow. Yeah. I just think no, all around. I agree. I agree. He wears like white suits all the time. I feel like so the outfit even isn't that, you know, revolutionary and terrible. But has matches. Even the hair choices. I'm like terrible kind of one to help you in. I know. What are are we doing? I know. I wonder what his pen says. Oh, I don't even notice the pen. I don't know.

No, a guy cannot go wrong with a well tailored touch. You cannot go wrong. No matter what size you

are, no matter what you look like, a well tailored touch is always a win. Yep. A great. So why

a man would ever try to reinvent the wheel. You don't need to men. You don't need to. Okay.

I think she looks. I like the dress. I do. I think it could be a different color. I think it would look nice and like a peach or a green. But I mean, she looks pretty. She looks really pretty to me. She I will say when you see videos of her on their own carpet. It is pretty jarring. She can't really move her face right now. Oh, so that's frustrating for me because she's known as like a really

expressive actress. And I've always really loved that about her. And I hope that she's not ruining

“that for herself. But she does look great in a photo. So yeah, I don't love the dress. I think it's”

basic and boring. And she could have done so much better. Yeah. She people are just talking about how thin she is and also talking about her facial work. Obviously, you don't really know what's going on with someone who has lost a lot of weight. So we won't speculate on that. But yeah, she's gotten a lot of work done on her face, which is unfortunate because she was so unique looking. Yeah. Like very beautiful, but not typical, you know, like Hollywood beauty, which is what I think

made her fun. Yeah. And fun to watch. And so it does make me sad when people get surgeries to look like everyone else. Yeah. So yeah, I hope that she's not on Instagram going down that path. Okay, let's see how many more we have because we might need to pick and choose a little bit because we still have to get to Paris Fashion Week. Yeah. Okay. Okay. Um, I don't even remember all the ones. Let's do, let's do Kevin O'Leary. And see what he's up to. Okay. What's going on, Kev? What is going on?

What is going on with his jacket? What is this depicting? Is this Roman war? Ah, you know, I couldn't tell you about the jacket. It is a choice. Also, he's wearing like a sports, some sort of like collectors card or something around his neck. It looks like NBA. And I think it, I've looked it up last night. I forget the number, but I think it's like $300 million or something. It's like some crazy amount of money. And he just showed up in that. So

“okay. It is, you know, I think the best thing you can say about it is that it is a choice.”

It's a choice that he decided between a standard talks with this and he chose this. And you know what, I kind of respected it because I don't even know why he's there. I think I think I

might be a Marty Supreme, actually, but yeah, he is. But, but I would never expect to see him.

So, kind of a jump scare. Let's, I did not know this is a person chase infinity. Yeah, that's a person. I don't know that was a person. I thought it was the name of like, I don't know. A bank? Yeah. I didn't know. Yeah. What is she? Sounds like a credit card. She is in the movie that won Best Film, which is called. I don't remember what it was. I don't know either. It's very pretty. I like, I really like this

color on her. Yeah. I like the dress minus the ruffles. I want the ruffles to just go

“snip. I want it to go away. I love them. You do. I think it's a good detail. Otherwise,”

I feel like it would be too simple. I think she looks incredible in this. It's her amazing. Yeah.

Okay. I'll go with this seven. I will do an eight. Okay. Let me see. I got to look through the document really fast. Oh, some of these people just very, very forgettable. I'm curious what you are going to think about. Elfani. Oh, we can put Ellie Fanny as an Aller Ellie. Elfani, enough. We can put Elfani, not. And then after this, we'll do one more. You can't really see the detail on it from here. But, uh, no? No. I'm not a huge fan of tool. Okay. I give it a five.

No. She did it much better. Wow. Yeah. What do you think? I give this one a 10. Well, I think she looks like a princess. I think, and when you see it up close, it looks even better. I think she looks amazing. Hmm. She does look amazing. And it fits her well. Yeah. I don't, I just don't love it. So sorry. Okay. Let's do one more. Let's do one more. Let's do Demi more. Oh. Yeah. It's full screen 10. Okay. So there's your tough. They sure are. Yeah.

Okay. She looks really good. These are great colors on her. She looks great and black and green. The feathers by her face. I think are a lot. They're not bad. But they're, they are a lot. Yes. They are a lot. I like the feathers at the bottom more than the feathers at the top. I think when

I thought she was really cool. Yeah. Um, my first, my gut instinct was to hate this.

“Yeah. But the more, yeah, the more I saw it, I was just like, no, I think it's cool. Okay. I think it's”

cool and unique. Okay. Yeah. I'm going to probably do a 7.2. Maybe a 6.8. I don't know. I'm going to say eight. I'm going to want to eight. But okay. I feel like people did well this year. I really do. Okay. Yes. Last sponsor for the day is pre-born 6,800 babies this month. That is the goal for pre-born. They save thousands and thousands of lives every year with the help of you with the help of pregnancy centers by the grace of God. They supply these pregnancy

centers with their resources and tools they need to serve pregnant moms in need. Specifically sonogram equipment. The sonogram equipment is really expensive. But it helps save lives because when a pregnant woman, she's in crisis. She's been lied to. She just wants confirmation of her pregnancy. She's been told that it's just a clump of cells. But she wants to see how far along she is. Maybe just so she can go get an abortion. But time stops when she's in that sonogram room.

She sees that little baby. Depending on how far along she is, maybe she sees the wiggling arms and legs. She can at least see the beating heart. She realizes this is a human being. This is a child that is a part of me. This is not just a clump of cells or pregnancy tissue. And right there, she is so much more likely to choose life simply because she is able to see and often hear the humanity of the baby inside that womb. And that is why pre-born exists to

equip these women and these pregnancy centers with what they need to help women make life affirming decisions and you can be a part of that. You can help save thousands of baby lives by going to pre-born.com/allie. Make your donation today. $28 covers the cost of a life-saving ultrasound. Maybe you can donate more than that. Maybe it's less, but every bit counts. Go to pre-born.com/allie.

“I think that's all we have. There are definitely more comments that we can give. But we just”

don't have the time-brain. We don't have the time because we have to do it. We're already 25 minutes in. We've got the gift of gab. But we got to talk about Paris Fashion Week. Quickly, okay? Because this was objectively terrifying. Terrible scary. This happened a couple weeks ago, I think. And let's just go ahead and start rolling those voiceovers of Paris Fashion Week. The stars arriving, showing off their looks. They all look like chapel-grown and bad money to me.

Every single one of them. I couldn't tell you Marilyn Manson. We're all famous people. I guess. Okay. So for the audience at home, this is coming from Lips of TikTok.

It is just a compilation of all these celebrities dressed basically like demons.

Very ugly. Grow task-looking. I'm not talking about them as people, but I'm just talking about how they're portraying themselves. That person has a weird BDSM thing going on. That person. It's like a dead person. The theme is clearly to be demonic. And I don't know what kind of statement they're trying to make of it some kind of critique of society or if they are just the demonic people themselves. But pretty scary. Obviously, not about beauty. Now, I don't know enough about

Paris Fashion Week to know is it usually about beauty? Or is it about, is it kind of like the Met Gala

“that's supposed to be weird? I think it's mixed. It's like a time for actual, like designer”

still to do their actual collections. But I think there's also, you know, all these weird things that, you know, they got to have events for people to go to, I guess. So they give all these people a platform. And I don't know. Do you think that like the celebrity who go to shows like that are like sitting there like, wow, this is really good. Or do you think they're all kind of laughing? No, I think that they're all thinking about being seen and how the world's interpreting them

and what kind of statement they're making and what kind of opportunity or attention this is

going to get them to people think I'm edgy finally. Oh, I bet I'm going to be the strangest, most

bizarre, you know, edgyest person there. I think they're all thinking about themselves. Yeah. I don't think that they are there to enjoy the art or to enjoy the spectacle. I think they are there to be the art and to be the spectacle. Yeah. You know, so I don't know. No, you're probably right about that. I don't know. Okay, so there are a couple of these designers and that I guess portrayed their fashion in Paris Fashion Week. You've got K, Nina Maya. He unveiled this

how can I get my hands on some gloom once more? I need to be gone, I'm tired of my gloom being so abstract. Let me see it. Let me wear it. Featuring, got people were elements of bondage and morbid animal sculptures. Good. So the person did we already put up full screen 27? I don't know. It reminds me of those creatures in Anastasia. Yes. You know? Yes. The soundtrack for the collection was

labeled the oral equivalent of a nervous breakdown. Okay. Again, I have always wanted my nervous

breakdowns to become an aura that I could just kind of like swim through. Yes. I'm tired of these terrible feelings just being out there somewhere. I want them here. Now. Yeah. Sometimes I scroll and look at all the news and I'm like, I want more terrible. I want to wear it and I want a gargoyle on my head. Or I'm done. Yes. I'm done. Yes. Okay. Did we? Okay. Wait. Wait. Go back to full screen 28, please. I need to comment on this. Okay. So next time you are looking to get dressed, don't neglect this.

Yeah. This is an option. You probably have to be calling around your house. Yeah. You never know.

“Yeah. Yeah. And then we have full screen 29. Another. I don't know you. No. What's happening?”

There are person there. I don't know. We're laughing about this, but it's actually scary. Full screen

30. Yes. And yes. When you are picking out bridesmaid stresses in the future, Brie. I want this to come back to your mind. Is it a school? It looks like a school on a tool. You trust my favorite combination. Is it all like a tattoo? You know what? It's like, you know? I like it. I love how all of them have like pants on their head. Covering half of their face. Yeah. Okay. I feel like you could anyone could be a designer today if you just did really weird stuff. Yeah. You're like,

what if we did shoes as glasses? Yeah. What if we tried that? Everybody's so creative. Yes. Okay. On re Alexander Levi, Levi, I don't know. I pronounced it on re, maybe it could be Henry. The, oh, I'm not going to be able to pronounce this because it's in French. You might know

“how to pronounce it. Okay. The founder of the brand, depressed rich kids. That's what it is in English.”

Oh, fall. I'm not going to try. That was pretty good. Thank you. Anyway, depressed rich kids. Again, great. We need more of that. Yes. His show featured a model chain to a statue of a man's head. Oh, full screen 31. The brand's inspiration comes from fellow child elites. The designer met and rehab as a young man. He once said, if you were going, this is, okay, this is actually disturbing. This part's not funny. If you were going to kill yourself, wouldn't you want to do it with a

$7,000 cash mere news? Probably not. Very, very dark stuff. Yeah, I don't. I think people underestimate how many people in Hollywood, the fashion world, movie industry are truly just disturbed people who are working out their trauma and demonic possession through entertainment and fashion. And they feel like they need to share that with the world. And I'm like, let's not. Let's keep that to our subtle. We know, we know too much about what the capital

and ourselves and we just need you to stop. This is what happened when Ronald Reagan was like, we don't need mental institutions anymore. Paris Fashion Week. Paris based label, French for fecal matter, okay? I don't know how I'll see again, demonic ugly

disgusting, morbid, all of those things always go together. Their collection, the 1% at the

atrically morbid collection, fusing body horror prosthetics, vampiric couture, and bloodstained luxury. The designers say the collection criticizes wealth, power, corruption and inequality.

“Somehow, I just don't feel like that's what it's accomplishing. This is full screen 32.”

Okay. Vampiric couture. Vampiric is so good right now. And I guess the point of all of these is not that people would wear this stuff. Right. I guess I don't know. Full screen 33. Okay. Scary. Scary. Scary. Stuff. I don't like that. No, full screen 34. Again, Marilyn Manson couture. Demonic looks like demons and then full screen 35. And that's gonna haunt you in your sleep at night. What we, that's literally the end of

dark about the glorification of the demonic that we see among a lot of people in Hollywood and

in the music industry. Yes. I don't the amount of times that those descriptions said morbid is kind of crazy actually. I don't know who's asking for that. Right. But you know,

“I think it all is in their heads. And it seems like the very same people who are like,”

oh, we need more peace and empathy and understanding and coexist in the world or also would

brush this stuff off as like, what's wrong with that? Yeah. It's great. It's not that big of a deal. Well, we can't be glorifying morbidity and death and gruesomeness in the demonic and at the same time, hope for world peace. Yeah. It's just not, it's just not going to happen. No. So that was

sufficiently disgusting. There's a lot that's going on in Hollywood. That I don't know. Maybe

doesn't really matter, but at the same time it tends to affect culture. Yeah. It does. Now, I feel a terrifying aura. Well, now your room has been made tangible. So you're welcome for that. Breathe. Thank you so much for rating fashion and talking about Hollywood. Okay. I'm going to put you a little bit on the spot because we got to end on a lighter note than now. We got to be reminded that God is in control and that Jesus wins in the light wins. Can you tell the audience

please specifically one way that we can pray for you and pray also for the missions that you are a part of and that you are helping facilitate for Christians throughout the world of that's a great

“question. I think for me, so my role is working a lot with the missionaries who are overseas”

and because my organization specializes in the darkest places, there are just a lot of people in the Middle East right now specifically who are really struggling with whether they should leave, whether they should stay and so I think that's one way you can pray for like global missions as a whole is, yeah, just that part of the world and the local Christians, like not just the Americans who are there, but the people, the Christians who like are in Iran, they need a lot of prayer right now.

“And for me, I think, I mean, I'm doing a lot of like communications with those missionaries.”

And so I would just love prayer for for that and for stamina, I'm going to be traveling a lot the rest of the year. And so yeah, health and travel safety and for everything that's going on to not affect all of that. Yeah, thank you for praying. Of course. I really thank you so much. I really appreciate it. Please keep reading all of the missionaries that she works with in her prayers and I appreciate your thanks.
