Congrats BB and MrsB. I knew something was up. New Years baby, pretty special. Don't blame ya for keeping the secret until the little bundle arrived ❤️. I assume Kyle knew. His dropping out concerned me, is he OK?

Expand full comment

Kyle no longer speaks to anyone at Badlands and hasn't since he quit, which includes me, his co-host of two+ years. That seems hard for people to believe but is the truth. He's a grown man and is free to communicate with his audience if he so chooses, but no, I'm not checking in on him.

This truly saddens me. I enjoyed his insights and even read the court cases along with him. Defected was my Sunday night go to program with you both. I have prayed for him and hope all is well. Prayed for you as well, hard to lose someone you considered a friend. Congrats on the precious baby boy to you & Mrs. Bright! 💕

We are all called to sainthood. Goodness and holiness should be the framework, the path, that leads to the outpouring of love. I have no doubt in this.

Welcome back BB. This article is in perfect step with how I am feeling. The Golden Age is almost upon us. We stand at the ready.

As I have said before you have an amazing way with words. Your Bright view of the future matches my outlook and belief.

Congratulation to you and Mrs Bright on the birth of your new son. In my humble opinion there is no greater purpose in life than to be a parent and I can see that you now understand that too.

God Wins!

God Bless!!!

What a beautiful way to begin 2025! A son that brings you and your wife to the awareness that creation is of God, and your child will be blessed with the uniqueness and gifts God will use in your son’s journey, just as He has with you and so very many more throughout history and up to the very battles we fight today. Congratulations to you both. God bless each of you as you have become 3.🙏

You are absolutely right when you note that the war is not over at this point, but the battles will continue to awaken, expose and lead to justice in time. As a fellow lover of Lord of the Rings (a book with the ultimate story of the battle between good and evil), the wonderful gifts the filmmaker used to beautifully embellish the story in the extraordinary beauty of New Zealand, and the horrors un-winnable wars bring, but especially the contrast between despair and hope shown throughout the story. God has been with the underdogs of the world throughout history as this story celebrates. When there is nothing else, no hope of winning, understood by the participants, then the ray of hope is given. You’ve rightly noted that it is faith that supplies hope; that, and having those outside oneself to hope and fight for. This is where man finally comes to the realization that we have a creator and that we cannot do it alone, that there truly is evil in the world, and that as believers in God’s perfect goodness, we have faith in His support. We understand that He gifted us with all needed for our roles and trust that these battles are not in vain and are, in fact winnable.

God bless you for the strength and courage to use those God given talents to help awaken the country and thus, the world!🙏

A gift from God on the beginning of the year where we have light at the end of this dark tunnel….it has always been about the children.

It's already been as amazing a journey as everyone said it would be.

Tolkien becomes more and more relevant to our times.

While I was not raised religious or on the Bible, I truly believe God blessed me with a passion for Tolkien's writings, which helped to imbue that sense of good over evil in my formative years.

And that has led you to help awaken many, as well as to teach! We are so thankful for you and for the parents that helped instill that sense!

Thank You for bringing my head back down to reason and balance, Mr. Bright. Too much X has a tendency to splay a mind all over the place... Happy New Year!!

Thank you so much for this article and congratulations. Such a joyous occasion to have a new little one. Love and blessings to all of you.

Just before reading this I was feeling like I just can’t read or listen to any more about lies, devastation, manipulation, control agendas, etc. These last few years have taken a toll on me.

Then your article popped up. Okay. I’ll read this, and I’m glad I did. You just made my day so much better and brought things back into a positive perspective. Thank you.

That's awesome to hear, Kathleen, and lets me know that sometimes, following the muse and leaving deep dive analysis to the side is what we need to re-center.

Congratulations to you and your new family! What a joyous adventure!

This piece reminds me of two phrases of similar intent:

"Let me win. But if I cannot win, let me be brave in the attempt."
