Show Notes

A chant of frustration, turned otherwise meaningless euphemism, turned cultural phenomenon, "let's go, Brandon" has become the slogan of choice for millions who are wishing to express displeasure with President Biden, and mock the mainstream media for their complacency in distorting the reality which the rest of the world can plainly see.

Prominent Christians have been seen wearing shirts and hats with the slogan, members of Congress have used it on social media and inside the nation's capitol, and self-proclaimed Christian musicians have produced chart-topping songs using the phrase as a means of avoiding the overtly vulgar language it's meant to replace.

So it's worth asking, what place does "let's go, Brandon" have in the language of the Christian? Ciara and Jessi answer that question, and many more, in this episode that serves more as a way for discerning through complicated social trends than it does as a condemnation of those who come to a different conclusion.

Regardless of your position on Christian use of "let's go, Brandon," the episode has something for you.
