Rod and Kale meet up for their weekly check in to discuss the aftermath of the red-wave-that-wasn't.
They focus their discussion on the sex and age delta and the strange case of abortion politics, post Roe. The truly post-Christian landscape emerges more clearly as the under 30 cohort show deep left preferences. Obama's "Life of Julia" campaign was a winning pitch.

Ultimately, stories and narrative are vital to any hope for a renaissance of enchantment. We must reconnect.
