The Unfounded Podcast

Welcome back for this emotional episode. It's been a tough couple of weeks in the world. After a long break spent working on other projects it seems fitting to return to the podcast in reflection. This episode is meant as a clarification, reflection and apology to the listeners for the ways in which I have been deceived in previous episodes and presented that confusion as truth. It has been a long journey to find the truth but at long last we have arrived. Enjoy and lot's of love!   Listen to "Gaslight Baby" Watch the "Gaslight Baby" music video!

In this episode of The Unfounded Podcast’s recurring series Take Me to Church, host Christopher Turner brings a fresh approach to engaging with religious texts. Covering Genesis chapters 17 and 18, he explores the transformation of Abram and Sarai into Abraham and Sarah, the covenant of circumcision as a physical symbol of God's promises, and Abraham’s bold intercession for Sodom and Gomorrah. Beyond biblical analysis, Turner intertwines personal reflections on motivation and physical health, using them as metaphors for resilience and faith in the creative process. He also examines contemporary issues like the potential TikTok ban, framing it as a test for creators to evaluate authenticity and the influence of digital platforms. With an emphasis on critical thinking and free exploration of spirituality, Take Me to Church breaks away from traditional structures, welcoming all perspectives without restrictive dogma. By fostering discussion across religious traditions, Turner aims to create a space where diverse beliefs can be engaged with openly. Join him every Sunday for this unique journey in faith and philosophy. Lots of Love <3 @christhasage ⁠⁠Follow Me on TikTok!⁠⁠ References - In order as shown during the show.

Welcome to a special edition of Take Me to Church! This episode marks an exciting milestone—the first-ever video installment in the series. As always, the goal is to capture the essence of a Sunday spiritual experience without the constraints of traditional church structures. This week, we explore Genesis Chapter 14, where Abram embarks on a daring mission to rescue his nephew Lot. But the story goes deeper than heroism—it’s a lesson in transformation. Abram’s refusal to take material rewards after the rescue stands in stark contrast to his past choices in Egypt, revealing his growth and the consequences of chasing worldly gain. Alongside biblical insights, the episode also reflects on the challenges of creation itself. The struggle to learn, grow, and push past obstacles—whether in faith, personal development, or even producing this very podcast—mirrors the journey of self-discovery. By encouraging open-minded exploration and critical thinking, Take Me to Church offers a space where spiritual traditions intersect and evolve together. No rules, no restrictions—just a chance to engage with sacred texts in a way that’s personal, thought-provoking, and real. Join me for this pivotal episode and be part of the journey.

Welcome to another Sunday edition of Take Me to Church! In this episode, we dive into Genesis chapters 12 and 13, exploring the introduction of Abram and his early encounters after receiving a divine calling. His journey is far from simple—marked by fear, deception, and divine repercussions. From his choice to mislead Pharaoh in Egypt to the growing tension with his nephew Lot over wealth and land, Abram's story highlights both human flaws and spiritual transformation. Through these passages, we examine the deeper themes of faith, trust, and the consequences of choices. Abram’s practice of building altars serves as a symbolic gesture of his ongoing relationship with God, even as he navigates worldly challenges. More than just biblical analysis, Take Me to Church is a space where critical thinking and open exploration replace rigid doctrine, inviting listeners to engage with sacred texts without preconceived constraints. This series is about breaking barriers—unifying perspectives across traditions, questioning assumptions, and exploring spirituality in an unfiltered way. If you’re ready to rethink belief, challenge interpretations, and embark on a new kind of Sunday experience, hit play and join the conversation.

Welcome back to Take Me to Church, a series that breaks free from traditional religious structures to explore spirituality through open-minded conversation. In this episode, we embark on the journey of Abram’s introduction in Genesis 12—a pivotal moment in biblical history where one man takes a leap of faith into the unknown. Abram’s story isn’t just about divine promises; it’s about stepping into authenticity, challenging societal expectations, and confronting the anxiety that comes with creation—whether in life, art, or faith. As Abram leaves his father’s house and sets out for an unfamiliar land, his journey reflects a universal call to seek purpose beyond comfort. This episode also dives into the historical and geographical context of Canaan, exploring the complex relationship between the Israelites and Canaanites and how ancient conflicts still echo in modern discussions. Take Me to Church invites listeners to engage with these narratives without rigid interpretations—creating space for curiosity, critical thinking, and dialogue across traditions. Join me as we navigate faith, history, and the deeper meaning behind the stories that shape us. Lots of Love <3 @christhasage Follow Me on TikTok!

Welcome back to Take Me to Church, the series that challenges conventional perspectives and fosters open exploration of religious texts. This week, we dive into Genesis Chapter 11 and the story of the Tower of Babel—one of the Bible’s most enigmatic narratives. Rather than a simple tale of human ambition and divine intervention, this episode examines Babel as a reflection of humanity’s ongoing search for connection, knowledge, and purpose. Was the confusion of language a punishment or a necessary disruption to prevent stagnation? Could the tower symbolize early astronomical observatories or deeper metaphysical truths? By exploring these questions, we break free from rigid interpretations and uncover new insights. More than just biblical analysis, Take Me to Church is about critical thinking—embracing curiosity, questioning assumptions, and uniting perspectives across traditions.

Welcome back to Take Me to Church, a series dedicated to exploring spirituality beyond conventional boundaries. This week, we embark on a deep dive into Genesis Chapters 8 and 9, unpacking the story of Noah’s Ark and the profound symbolism woven into its aftermath. Far more than a survival tale, Noah’s journey invites us to reflect on themes of renewal, divine covenant, and the forces that shape human destiny. From the sending of the raven and the dove to the promise of the rainbow, this episode examines these moments through multiple lenses—connecting biblical scripture to insights from texts like the Book of Enoch and Secret Teachings of All Ages. We also explore potential archaeological evidence, such as the Richat Structure, and investigate flood myths across cultures, including the legendary tale of Atlantis. At its core, Take Me to Church fosters critical thinking and free exploration of religious texts—without restrictions or forced interpretations. Whether you’re questioning, seeking, or simply curious, this episode invites you to engage with ancient narratives in a way that’s open, thought-provoking, and deeply relevant. Join me for this week's journey and discover new perspectives on one of the Bible’s most enduring stories. Lots of Love <3 @christhasage Follow Me on TikTok!

This week’s episode takes a deep dive into the nature of creation, good and evil, and the enduring mysteries woven into ancient texts. We begin with selections from Paradise Lost, offering a powerful reimagining of the Fall of Man and the rebellion of the angels. From there, we turn to Genesis 5–7, tracing the lineage from Adam to Noah, the corruption that led to the flood, and the enigmatic presence of the “sons of God” and the giants. These narratives invite questions about divine intervention, free will, and the patterns of destruction and renewal seen throughout human history. But the exploration doesn’t stop there. By drawing connections to works like Manly P. Hall’s The Secret Teachings of All Ages and the Book of Noah, we consider whether myths like Atlantis and other flood accounts are fragments of a larger, hidden truth about our origins. What do these ancient stories reveal about the nature of divine and demonic forces? How much of human history has been shaped by deception? At its core, Take Me to Church is a space for curiosity—where belief isn’t dictated but questioned, explored, and expanded across traditions. If you’re ready to challenge assumptions and uncover deeper meanings, join me this Sunday for a conversation that defies expectations.

Welcome back to Take Me to Church, where we explore spirituality beyond traditional boundaries. This episode dives into the timeless human struggle between truth and deception, drawing from the biblical story of Cain and Abel in Genesis. Through this foundational narrative, we examine themes of morality, inherited flaws, and the choices that define us. But the discussion doesn’t stop there. We also reflect on the broader pressures shaping our world today—the difficulty of speaking authentically in a society that often silences bold voices. Drawing wisdom from Marcus Aurelius’s Meditations, we explore Stoic principles of duty, resilience, and personal fulfillment, showing how ancient philosophy intersects with spiritual thought. The episode concludes with the St. Michael prayer, offering protection and strength in times of uncertainty. With Take Me to Church, there are no restrictions—just open exploration of faith, philosophy, and the human experience. If you’re ready to question assumptions and engage with sacred texts in a new way, join me for this thought-provoking episode. Lots of Love <3 @christhasage Follow Me on TikTok!

Welcome to the first in a series of Sunday episodes titled "Take Me to Church", where spirituality is not confined to walls or traditions but thrives in open exploration. This week, we delve into the Genesis 1 and the creation story, not as a singular doctrine but as one of many ancient narratives that may describe the same fundamental truth. Through deep discussions on the Dead Sea Scrolls, The Book of Enoch, and ancient Egyptian beliefs about Thoth, we examine how different traditions intersect, rather than compete, in their search for meaning. The episode also explores the symbolism of the firmament—could it be figurative, subtly aligning with a modern understanding of the cosmos? We reflect on the Sabbath not just as a religious command but as a universal call to rest and renewal. More than anything, this episode is an invitation—to question, to rethink, and to uncover the hidden connections that shape our understanding of ourselves and the world. Join me as we journey through ancient texts with curiosity and critical thought, seeking wisdom beyond boundaries. Lots of Love <3 @christhasage Follow Me on TikTok!

With the 2024 presidential election now settled, emotions are complex—celebration is met with an undercurrent of uncertainty. In this episode of Take Me to Church, Christopher Turner steps beyond the surface excitement of populist success to explore the deeper psychological and emotional weight that lingers after the dust settles. Turner reflects on how unprocessed trauma—both personal and collective—shapes political reactions. Using his own journey, including the pain of leaving the military, he examines how suppressed struggles can manifest in unexpected ways, influencing political perspectives and fueling strong emotional responses. He explores the idea that victories, even hard-fought ones, don’t always bring the closure we expect. The episode also takes a critical look at the modern liberal movement, offering a plea for rational discourse, self-reflection, and intellectual honesty. Turner argues that generations raised without direct exposure to hardship often develop unrealistic ideological beliefs, leading to challenges in navigating loss, faith, and resilience. By addressing these themes, he opens a conversation about healing—not just from political division, but from the deeper wounds that shape personal and societal outlooks. This episode invites listeners to step outside ideological boundaries and engage in raw, unfiltered dialogue. If you're ready to move beyond reactionary politics and explore the deeper forces driving this moment, hit play and join the conversation. Lots of Love <3 @christhasage Follow Me on TikTok!

Loss is one of life’s greatest challenges, but in grief, there is transformation. In this deeply reflective episode of The Unfounded Podcast, we confront the reality of saying goodbye and explore how letting ourselves fully experience loss reveals profound truths about existence—an ongoing cycle of energy, change, and renewal. Rather than numbing the pain, embracing it allows us to see beyond the surface and reconnect with the world in unexpected ways. From personal reflections on family and memory, the conversation shifts sharply to the upcoming 2024 election. With tensions high and the stakes undeniable, this episode examines the complexity of the ballot and why clarity in choice is more important than ever. We break down the philosophical divide shaping the political landscape, framing the election as more than a battle of ideologies—it’s a question of authenticity versus illusion. Through careful scrutiny of amendments, values, and intuition, we explore how voting can serve as an expression of deeper truths, both individual and collective.

Ever have one of those days where everything seems fine until something unexpectedly throws you off? In this episode of The Unfounded Podcast, Christopher Turner takes a hard look at moments of frustration and self-reflection, exploring the deeper truths hidden behind emotional reactions. What starts as an analysis of personal accountability expands into a powerful discussion on growth, trauma, and the biases we carry—sometimes without realizing it. Turner shares his journey of unpacking childhood wounds, particularly those tied to authority and gender dynamics, and how they have shaped his worldview. Using a recent comment from Barack Obama on Black men and political support, he challenges listeners to examine their own beliefs, asking whether unconscious grievances might be influencing their actions in ways that need to be reconsidered. Ultimately, this episode is a call to self-awareness. If we want a better future—both personally and collectively—we must first confront our own flaws, heal from past experiences, and embrace the responsibility of transformation.

In this Fourth of July episode of The Unfounded Podcast, Christopher Turner lets the conversation flow freely, reflecting on both personal challenges and the broader state of the nation. He begins with an honest discussion about the difficulties of maintaining consistency in the podcast, sharing his journey of physical and emotional healing and the struggles that have come with it. The episode then shifts to a deep examination of the United States—how it is perceived globally, the unseen forces working to erode its moral foundation, and the enduring principles upon which it was built. Turner draws a powerful parallel to the biblical story of Cain and Abel, illustrating how societies rooted in integrity and truth prosper while those consumed by jealousy and deception falter. He warns of both external and internal threats attempting to manipulate and weaken the nation, urging listeners to recognize this battle and stand firm in defense of foundational American values. This episode is a call to awareness, resilience, and action—a reminder that while the state of the union may be fractured, the truth remains. If you’re ready to explore these themes with raw honesty, join the conversation.

In this thought-provoking episode of The Unfounded Podcast, Christopher Turner takes a deep dive into the complex nature of dishonesty—how it manifests in public discourse, entertainment, and personal integrity. Using two striking examples from recent media, Turner analyzes the ways deception influences perception and trust. The first discussion centers around a moment from the PBD Podcast, where Chris Cuomo is confronted with a clip highlighting his actions during COVID. Turner breaks down Cuomo’s response, examining the broader implications of accountability and public trust in media figures. Later, the episode shifts to a revelation from comedian Nikki Glaser on Tigerbelly, where she shares that her recent performances—on the Tom Brady Roast and her latest special—were crafted with the help of other writers and comedians. What does this mean for authenticity in entertainment? How do audiences reconcile creative collaboration with personal representation? Beyond these examples, Turner explores the spiritual side of lying—why it’s considered a fundamental sin and how deception disconnects individuals from truth, both internally and collectively. He argues that dishonesty, whether in media, politics, or personal identity, erodes trust and fosters self-deception, ultimately contributing to societal chaos.

Few global conflicts are as deeply rooted and emotionally charged as the Israeli-Palestinian struggle. In this episode of The Unfounded Podcast, we take a step back from the noise, frustration, and polarization to attempt something rare—genuine understanding. With modern tensions in Gaza as a backdrop, we unravel the historical layers of the conflict, tracing its origins to the rise of Zionism in the late 19th century and examining how narratives on both sides have often been oversimplified, manipulated, and weaponized. The discussion highlights the profound religious and historical ties to the land for both Jewish and Palestinian people, questioning whether this war is more ideological than territorial. Through an exploration of ancient texts, including the deeper meaning of Israel as "those who wrestle with God," we analyze how faith and history intertwine with contemporary geopolitics. More than just historical analysis, this episode is a call for nuanced conversation—a challenge to move beyond the cycle of retaliation and blame, toward a perspective rooted in compassion and responsibility.

This episode of The Unfounded Podcast is an unfiltered deep dive into trauma—how it manifests in society, how it shapes us individually, and how healing is possible. Christopher Turner begins with a Secular World Update, analyzing the disturbing revelations surrounding figures like P-Diddy and Jeffrey Epstein, highlighting their cases as stark examples of power, corruption, and the widespread presence of abuse in our world. The conversation then shifts to a Spiritual World Update, focusing on the story of Bishop Mar Mari Emanuel, who was recently attacked after speaking critically about Islam. Turner explores the bishop’s choice to forgive his assailant, reflecting on how compassion and faith can be transformative forces, even in the face of violence. Finally, in a deeply personal segment, Turner opens up about his own trauma, tracing its roots to childhood abuse and discussing how it has shaped his relationships, fears, and self-identity. He shares his path toward healing, emphasizing the necessity of facing pain directly, rather than allowing it to fester and perpetuate cycles of harm. The episode also features selected clips from Theo Von, Father Mari Mari Emanuel, and Dr. Jordan Peterson—each offering insights into the nature of suffering and the journey toward recovery. If you feel drawn to this conversation, it’s for a reason. Tune in for a powerful exploration of truth, resilience, and the path to healing.
