The Chris Spangle Show

Reverend Leo Patalinghug, a Catholic priest who founded the Plating Grace Mission and the Table Foundation, and Dr. Michael Foley, a professor of theology at Baylor University and author of over 14 books, including "Dining With the Saints" join me to discuss the importance of family meals and building community around food.

I was on a road trip and dropped in on my friend Kris Bex. He is one of the most well-read libertarians I know, and I wanted to ask him, "How does someone discover their own first principles?" It's been my experience through reading and learning history that I feel less manipulated, and therefore less anxious, about the world today than many of my friends sitting on social media. Kris gives his perspective on why someone needs to understand their own fundamental principles, and what process they can use to do it.  Join our Patreon now for commercial-free shows, bonus content and our complete archives - https://www.patreon.com/wearelibertarians --- Q Sleep Spray assists in achieving a more restful sleep so you can wake up refreshed.

The Thursday before the Indy 500 is media day, and the BOB & TOM Show is invited out to interview the field. These are the interviews I did, but search for the Bob and Tom free podcast to hear all of the interviews with Tom, actor Drew Powell, myself, and over 20 other drivers. Check out the Bob and Tom YouTube channel for videos. I am a huge Indy 500 fan, and if you're not, I would ask, "Why not?" It is incredibly exciting. Thanks to Tom for letting me fill in for him on some of the interviews.
