How did a 19th-century naturalist's theory become the foundation for reshaping American education, culture, and institutions? We trace the documented funding trail from Darwin to Marx to the Rockefeller foundations—and into your children's classrooms. This isn't conspiracy theory.

R&B Talks: 2 Guys. 2 Chairs. Real Christ-Centered Conversation.

How did America's boardrooms become ideological enforcement arms — and why do they care more about ESG scores than customers?

We trace the pipeline from academia to corporate America: how ideological capture spread through financial pressure (ESG) and internal enforcement (DEI). From Milton Friedman's 1970 shareholder doctrine to the 2019 Business Roundtable betrayal. From Larry Fink's "we are forcing behaviors" to the Bud Light and Target disasters.

The Big Three (BlackRock, Vanguard, State Street) control 88% of S&P 500 companies. BlackRock alone manages $10 trillion — more than every country's GDP except the US and China. And they're using that power to force ideological compliance.

Case studies show the consumer backlash is working: Bud Light lost $27 billion in market cap, Target lost $10 billion in two weeks, while Chick-fil-A proves values-driven business thrives.

Biblical perspective from Revelation 18's Commercial Babylon and Matthew 6:24. Practical resources for spending your dollar intentionally.

Your dollar has power. Use it.

How did one worldview come to dominate academia, science, Hollywood, media, and tech—and what has it cost us?

In this episode, Reggie and Brian trace the timeline of institutional capture from the church's first compromise with secular science in 1804 (before Darwin was even born) through today's Big Tech information control. We examine the data: 90%+ liberal faculty at elite universities, 9:1 Democrat-to-Republican ratios among scientists, and the pipeline that filters out anyone who asks the wrong questions.

We dig into Christopher Langan—a man with a 195-210 IQ who the academic system chewed up and spit out, not because his ideas were refuted, but because he didn't have the right credentials. We explore what Yuri Bezmenov (KGB defector) warned us about ideological subversion and why his prescription was a return to religion. And we look at what Scripture says about all of this—Romans 1's warning about those who "professing to be wise, became fools" hits different when you see the pattern playing out in real time. The gatekeepers want you to trust them. They've earned distrust.
