Ep. 374 - Has Feminism Destroyed Relationship Dynamics? with Rachel Wilson
Counterflow with Buck Johnson
Rachel Wilson is the author of "Occult Feminism: The Secret History of Women's Liberation" and she joins us today to discuss the topic of feminism and relationships. There's a default assumption that feminism was a necessary evil. But has it done more harm than good? Has it done any good at all? Why were the founding voices in the movement also into the occult? We discuss the modern day relationship dynamics between men and women, dating, marriage, raising children, and more.

Ep. 373 - Orthodox Masculinity, Orthodox Femininity, with Father John Peck
Counterflow with Buck Johnson
Fr. John Peck is back with us this week. We dive into a topic with a ton of low frequency noise in our current society. I wanted to get a more grounded, truthful view of what healthy masculinity and femininity look like. We hear all kinds of wild versions of this which sometimes sound legitimate but aren't rooted in Truth. For more from Fr.

Ep. 372 - Epstein Matters, with J. Burden

J Burden is back with us this week. You can find his work over at . We are discussing the situation with the Jeffery Epstein "files", why this whole story does indeed matter, and how if Trump misses on this, it will ultimately be very bad for his Presidency. Why do the people that keep telling us that what Epstein did doesn't matter all fit a similar profile?

Ep. 370 - Theistic Satanism, Presbyterianism, and Orthodoxy: Oh My! with Shane Jarvis
Counterflow with Buck Johnson
My guest this week has had a journey full of twists and turns on his way to the Orthodox Church. He was raised as a charismatic and became and avid reader. His intellectualism drove him to question his parents and their faith. Once they had no answers, he fell away from that faith. Join us as we take you through the journey that followed, including a stop at theistic satanism. The good news is that we end at a happy place.

Ep. 368 - The Church IS Israel, with Dr Clark Carlton
Counterflow with Buck Johnson
Clark Carlton is back on the show this week to discuss a topic that is VERY MUCH needed right now. Many of us saw Texas Senator Ted Cruz make a complete fool of himself in his recent interview with Tucker Carlson. He stated that he believes that the "Israel" mentioned in the Book of Genesis is the same as the current State of Israel which was founded in 1948. Unfortunately, there are many folks who still believe this sort of thing and it's partially because they've been taught bad theology for years. It is worse when politicians have such bad Biblical understanding that they want their poor...

Ep. 367 - Zelenskyy’s War on the Orthodox Church, with Catherine Whiteford
Counterflow with Buck Johnson
This week, Catherine Whiteford joins me to discuss the issues with the Orthodox Church inside of Ukraine. You may have heard that there's a new "church" sponsored by the US State Department in Ukraine. Yet the government is trying to close out and ban the real Church that has been in existence there for over 1000 years. In this video, Catherine breaks all of this down for you and explains the differences between the real and fake church in Ukraine and who’s fighting for which one. In this interview, we discussed Catherine meeting with the White House Faith Office. She is indeed officially in...

Ep. 366 - From Calvinism to Orthodoxy, with Ambrose McReynolds
Counterflow with Buck Johnson
My guest today was raised wonderfully by a loving family in the Protestant Calvinist church. He grew to become so involved in the church that he was giving sermons and leading youth groups, Bible studies, veterans groups, and so on. One day his sister, previous Counterflow guest Monique Mathiesen, introduced him to the Orthodox faith. This challenged Ambrose to confront the possible wrongs of Calvinism, which he had been believing and teaching for years. Join us in this great story, as you'll find Ambrose to be humble, smart, and able to deal with uncomfortable truths. Please support Monique...

info_outlineReverend Father Emmanuel Lemelson is a force of nature—a Greek Orthodox priest, activist investor, and social commentator who fearlessly confronts the collision of faith, finance, and power. In this episode, we get into a discussion on the issue of Papal infallibility and the structures of power within the Catholic Church. It has led to many coverups and abuses throughout the decades. Fr. Emmanuel has also been brave enough to challenge another source of corrupt power: the United States Federal Government and big pharma. He tells his wild tales of this ongoing battle, how it started, and where he's at with it now.
