Rick Wilson checks in from the DNC in Chicago and brings you his interview with Stephen Ukaki about his film, 'Bad Faith: Christian Nationalism's Unholy War on Democracy.’ Their discussion explores the ways in which evangelical activism and religious manipulation have shaped the political landscape and caused the emergence of Christian Nationalism, a dangerous bastardization of the Gospels that helped Donald Trump win the election in 2016 and, if left unchecked, could help him win this year as well.

Maya is joined by Matthew D. Taylor, expert on Christian Nationalism and Independent Charismatic Christianity, and Jeremy Alder, comedian and survivor of a fundamentalist missionary upbringing. Can we punch up at Christian Nationalism - oh Hell yes and we had better start doing so NOW!

America voted for Project 2025, Christian Nationalism, and to be governed by incompetent, amoral degenerates. Oh, you voted for cheaper eggs? Yeah, it was a package deal. Read the fine print. And the eggs will cost more. So now what? Maya May and award-winning author and Christian Nationalism survivor Andra Watkins get real real about what comes next.
Andra Watkins writes: "Christian Nationalists’ decades-long strategy of PURPOSEFUL DISENGAGEMENT gave them the tools to destroy democracy. They succeeded on 5 November without firing a shot."
Host Maya May dives into The Day After with activist and White Women for Harris co-chair Liz Minnella and comedian Allison Reese. This is an incredible conversation - raw, realistic about what we face but also what comes next in protecting our loved ones and creating political and social change.
