3 Surprising Practices of Successful Multi-Generational Families
This episode breaks down 3 of the 10 surprising practices of multi-generational families that Jeremy has identified. From celebrating talent in big families (without relying on teachers/coaches/tutors/etc.), to protecting daughters from the degenerate culture of feminism, to setting up the family leadership under a respected and cherished patriarch and matriach...these things are counter-cultural, but that's what we need if we're ever going to build a multi-generational family. Today's culture certainly isn't building them!

Are Feminists Right About The Misery of Motherhood?
This debate shone so much light on the state of the world and how most feminists and young women are thinking about family. It's tragic, but really informative for those of us trying to build strong families that honor both genders, both parents and children, and all generations. Jeremy and his daughter Kelsey react to a recent debate between 3 women on the topic of whether feminism is creating lonely, broken men. They specifically focus on a couple of points: - The assumption by so many that motherhood is miserable, and, - The roles of mothers in community building On this episode, we talk about: 0:00 Intro 3:28 Feminists think motherhood is miserable 15:10 Why is the narrative of parental misery so popular? 21:53 The roles women play in community building 31:31 Build for the future generations 40:06 Preferences vs duty Subscribe on Substack ➡️ Follow Jeremy on: Instagram: X: Resources Mentioned: Is Feminism Creating Lonely, Broken, Sexless Men? --- Welcome to Jeremy Pryor's Podcast, or what I like to call, "Jeremy Pryor Unfiltered."

Why Believing People Are Good Leads to Tyranny (Dennis Prager Is Right)
What's the big deal about thinking that people inherently struggle with wickedness in their heart (a Christian belief)? OK great, just some theology, right? Wrong.

This is one of those tricky issues that lack of nuance and cancel-culture-style arguments have ruined for us.

What Dads Need To Understand About The Science of Same-Sex Attraction with Dr. Joseph Nicolosi, Jr.

What Dads Need To Understand About The Science of Same-Sex Attraction with Dr. Joseph Nicolosi, Jr.
This is a conversation most people aren't willing to have. But it's important, and if we're going to be intellectually honest, we need to be able to ask questions, dig in to the data, and find out what's really going on in the issues of our age. One of those issues is unwanted same-sex attraction. It's no secret that society at large is pushing a "degendering" experiment, and it started decades ago with gay-affirming practices. Instead of being able to help men who struggle with this - often due to trauma - states are even trying to BAN therapists from talking about it. This may be the most honest conversation on this topic you've ever heard, and you'll learn about other resources to study further, if necessary. Thanks to Dr. Joseph Nicolosi, Jr. for his work on this topic and his willingness to share the science and data behind this touchy topic. On this episode, we talk about: 0:00 Intro 1:04 The Nicolosi family's history helping men with unwanted same-sex attraction 7:51 Theories around same-sex attraction 12:34 Trauma and attraction development 15:38 Politics and ideology in the field of psychology 18:27 Is it possible (or even legal) for an adult male to get help if he wants to engage in a heterosexual, monogamous marriage? 20:07 Options for helping minors who struggle with unwanted same-sex attraction? 22:35 Can we still have conversations about conversion therapy? 27:47 What dads need to know about raising sons who want to have families 34:18 Can men who struggle with same-sex attraction have thriving heterosexual marriages that last? 40:26 What about exceptions? 41:55 Fathers who feel immense guilt if their son struggles with same-sex attraction 43:10 Major contributing factors to male same-sex attraction 45:31 The massive social experiment of "degendering" children (and what dads can do) Subscribe on Substack ➡️ Follow Jeremy on and .

Could this be the REAL issue underlying all of the destructive feminist, anti-family, and Gen-Z apathy we've come to know and expect from the upcoming generation? If you've ever caught yourself judging young people today, this podcast may give you a helpful counterweight as to WHY they may be the way they are. And unsurprisingly, it's all about family. As sad as it is to hear the pain most young people are in today, their answers are all wrong. The answer is not to blow it all up and tear down the institution of marriage. It's to start better families...as scary as that may be to them. Hopefully this episode with Jeremy and Sydney encourages you to be compassionate toward these people and to ensure your kids and grandkids KNOW how much they're valued, and KNOW you'll stick around no matter what. On this episode, we talk about: 0:00 Intro 0:53 The Age of Abandonment 10:08 The real issue beneath anti-family movements? 18:46 "Therapy culture" and our obsession with self love 22:49 The best way to get over coming from a bad family is to build a better one 31:31 The best way forward is to defend and promote family, not destroy it Subscribe on Substack ➡️ Follow Jeremy on and .

The Patriarchy of Promises in the Bible (and Why We Must Make and Keep Them in our Families)

The Patriarchy of Promises in the Bible (and Why We Must Make and Keep Them in our Families)
If a father is designed to point his children to God, what happens when he breaks a promise? It shakes the foundation of what a child believes about the world and about God. This is why a father especially, but everyone inside of a family, must make...and KEEP...promises. Ultimately, a kept promise in a family points everyone to God, who makes and keeps promises abundantly, all throughout Scripture. In this episode, Jeremy Pryor reads a new section of his book, The Ruling Household, and discusses the implications with his wife April, including why the Biblical framework of promises points to a necessary patriarchal structure. On this episode, we talk about: 0:00 Intro 1:06 Becoming a promise-keeping patriarch 7:47 The stability of a father's promise 15:57 A father rescues from rash promises 18:01 The Bible advocates for a patriarchal structure 22:44 Why dads must be more than just playful friends to their kids Subscribe on Substack ➡️ Follow Jeremy on and .

The Case For Marriage And Why Monogamy Is Under Attack with Conn Carroll
Marriage, monogamy, the family, and children are under attack. But there's so much information, so many posts, infinite news articles...all coloring our vision and distracting us, which means it's hard to pinpoint exactly what went wrong, and where. Jeremy and Conn Carroll discuss the history of monogamous marriage, the results of the last few centuries of liberty-obsessed philosophers, and what we can do to turn the tide to save marriages, birth rates, and families in America.

What Does Trump's "Hyper-Masculine" Victory Mean for Families and America?
The 2024 election was really a contest between the masculine and the feminine. Trump represents the hyper-masculine in a number of ways we'll get into in this podcast, whereas Kamala represented the hyper-feminine (perhaps not personally, but on a policy and partisan level).

If, as Christians, we are going to combat wokeness, then we must accurately and succinctly define the term.

The Patriarch With The Longest Vision Wins
The best way to ensure you wind up where you want to be in 5, 10, or even 25 years is to have a vision. That's why we encourage dads to cast a vision for their family life.

What has He put in your heart that requires planning and intentionality? Follow Abram's journey to becoming Abraham as God lays out a massive, multi-thousand year vision through Abraham and his offspring, and follow some basic questions to start casting your vision today.
