If you've ever scrolled through X in the past year, you know the name Matt Van Swol, who's become an incredibly viral independent creator speaking up against the rise of political violence in America, the importance of fighting for free speech, and a several-times-daily based take that's hugely impacting the modern political landscape of the Right.

What you may NOT know is this–Matt and his beautiful wife Erin used to be liberals... no, for real. Like, "cry your eyes out at the sight of a MAGA hat" liberals–that is, until Hurricane Helene devastated their home of North Carolina and the Biden Administration did virtually NOTHING to help the thousands of Carolinians displaced from their homes.

Through volunteering their time to help their neighbors, Matt & Erin Van Swol went through a spiritual and political awakening that led them to a singular conclusion: they had to leave the Left, because the political Left had left them behind entirely.

Today, Erin has written about their family story in her new book, "Confessions of a Liberal," and she and Matt join us together on the show to share their experience radically changing their political beliefs, finding a renewed faith in the Lord, and raising a young family in a culture that continues to demonize conservatism–even when there's nothing to fear about it at all.

You’ll be so moved by their story, and inspired by their courage–you may even start an X account yourself.
