Episode 73, “Time to Punch Right'“
-Andrew For America responds to a critique of his show, then offers a brief history of the radical Christian right-wing movement in America. He discusses how televangelists used the power of cable TV to bring their messaging to a much larger audience than what was previously possible. Andrew plays some clips from the TV show, "While the Rest of Us Die, Radical Religion" to help illustrate his point. He also reads excerpts from the books, "American Fascists: The Christian Right and the War on America" by Chris Hedges, and "Raven Rock: The Story of the U. S. Government's Secret Plan to Save Itself" by Garrett M. Graff (which is the inspiration for the series "While the Rest of Us Die" airing now on Vice TV).
-The song selection is the song, "Non-Prophet" by the band Non-Prophet.
