Summary
Charlie is a Protestant, and Michael Knowles is a Catholic. What started off as a free-ranging discussion at AmFest became a spirited debate about two different approaches to Christianity, which the audience got deeply invested in as well. The two also discuss the origins of the MAGA movement, what they've each seen on college campuses the past year, and more.
