The Matt Walsh Show

There must be a purge in the Catholic Church to expose, expel, and punish sex predators. It must be brutal and ruthless and far reaching. There is no other way at this point. Let's talk about three steps the Church can take to finally rid itself of this evil. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices Learn more about your ad choices.

The Left is mad that the actor portraying a gay character in a new Disney film is not himself gay. They're also mad that the actress portraying a lesbian Batwoman is not herself lesbian enough. Here we see two facts demonstrated: 1) Identity politics is insane. 2) The Left will never be satisfied, no matter how much ground is surrendered to them. Learn more about your ad choices.

Any time a handful of white supremacists gather together, the media rushes to the scene. If I didn't know any better I might begin to suspect that the media is trying to purposefully embolden and legitimize white supremacy so they can use it to discredit the Right.

It's not hard to figure out why young people today are attracted to socialism. The equation is pretty simple. Bad parenting + bad education = socialists. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

We are far too focused on self-love these days. People have come to believe that self-love is the starting point, and goal, of human life. It isn't. Self-love hardly even makes sense as a concept, and in practice it almost always translates into narcissism. Let's talk about why we should stop worrying about loving ourselves and focus instead on loving others. Learn more about your ad choices. Visi...

A new mental disorder called "Snapchat dysmorphia" has been invented to describe people who get plastic surgery so that they look better on Snapchat. There is a simple and more accurate term for this: narcissism. Social media fuels narcissism because it encourages us to focus intently on our image, our appearance, ourselves.

The big tech giants have conspired to ban and shutdown Alex Jones. No matter how you feel about Jones, this is chilling. And it's just the beginning. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

The Left is defending the racist tweets of a New York Times reporter on the basis that she can't be racist because she isn't white. In the Leftist mind, only those with "institutional power" can be racist, and only white people have that kind of power. This is wrong and nonsensical on several different levels. Let's dissect the wrongness now. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices....

Pope Francis is attempting to overturn 2,000 years of Church teaching on the death penalty. Christianity has always taught, and Scripture says, and men like Aquinas and Augustine have affirmed, that the death penalty is morally permissible. The Pope disagrees. Is he wrong? We'll talk about that on the show today. (But yes, he's wrong). Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adc...

I don't understand evangelical atheism. If life is objectively meaningless, and we are but physical matter headed into an eternal oblivion, why do you care what other people believe? Why are you trying to convert us into unbelief? What does it matter? What does anything matter? Let's talk about it. Learn more about your ad choices.

I can't believe I have to say this, but, no, Jesus is not a socialist. He does not see poverty as a social disease to be cured by a power from on high. He could do that Himself if He wanted to. But that's not the point. The point is that we as individuals are supposed to CHOOSE to help and love our fellow humans. Learn more about your ad choices.

The New York Times published an article lamenting the fact that there are so many white people in New Hampshire. The Left continues to engage in blatant bigotry against white people under the guise of pushing "diversity." But socially engineered diversity is wrong and self-defeating. It's also extremely racist, for many reasons. We will discuss those reasons now. Learn more about your ad choices....

We say that it's everyone's civic duty to vote. That's not exactly true. It's everyone's civic duty to be informed and contributing members of society. If they haven't fulfilled that duty, then it's extremely bad for them to vote. An ignorant, self-centered vote serves only to cancel out the votes of informed people. We could easily solve this problem by holding voters to a very basic standard of...

For a change of pace from the heavier topics, let's talk about the most misunderstood group in human society: introverts. We are often accused of being "anti-social," and "hating people," and so on, but none of that is true. We just have no need for, and do not enjoy, constant noise and pointless chatter.

Supposedly, our plastic straws are destroying the environment. We are told that we use 500 million straws a day, and many of them somehow end up in the ocean. Both of these claims are false. Let's now debunk this hysteria, and discuss why people engage in environmental hysterics, and how they hurt their own movement in the process. Learn more about your ad choices.

The disease that infects the church in America is cowardice. Many Christians are afraid to stand for moral truth. The persecution we face is very light, yet we cower from it in fear. There can be no resurgence of faith in America until there is a resurgence of courage. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices Learn more about your ad choices.

Trendy liberal parents are raising their kids "gender neutral." They even have a name for gender neutral kids: theybies. This is not only illogical, ridiculous, and insane -- it is also child abuse.

The Catholic Church started admitting a significant percentage of gay priests in the 60s and 70s. It was right at this time that the sexual abuse of altar boys became a huge problem. These two things are not unrelated. The one leads to the other. This is the glaringly obvious fact that any rational person can recognize, but few will say out loud. Christianity in the West is infested with cowards w...

I got an email from a Christian who tells me that I should save the God stuff for church and talk about other subjects. I hear this kind of thing a lot from Christian readers/viewers. It is a symptom of the secularization of faith in America. We treat faith and "the real world" as two entirely separate things that should not cross over into one another. But I don't think that is the right approach...

A new campaign seeks to "evolve masculinity" by turning men into emasculated weaklings. But this does not represent an evolution. The new version of masculinity is a devolution from the traditional version. And that's a problem because this country desperately needs masculine men. Learn more about your ad choices.

The drug companies and the psychiatric industry have turned nearly every human emotion, trait, characteristic, and weakness into symptoms of mental diseases. Often they do so by pushing thoroughly debunked theories like "chemical imbalancement." Before long, we will all be mentally disordered. Learn more about your ad choices.

Today I want to address what I think is maybe the best atheist argument against the existence of God. It's also a question that we Believers have been grappling with for centuries: Where is God? Why does He remain invisible to us? Why doesn't He reveal Himself unmistakably to all of us? I don't claim to have THE answer to that question. Nobody does. But here are my thoughts on the subject.

Ariana Grande is out with a trashy and utterly stupid song and video called “God is a woman.” The media has hailed it as empowering and uplifting for women. But, like most pop music, it is neither of those things. It is exactly the opposite, in fact. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices Learn more about your ad choices.

The PC mob's latest victim is Papa John. He said the N-word, while quoting someone else who said the N-word, and now he has been forced to resign in disgrace because of it. This is absurd. A word itself cannot be racist. A word is just a word. But this is really about the Left's mission to control language and thus control society. Learn more about your ad choices.

We Christian conservatives are accused of "pushing religion" whenever we make pretty much any argument, but especially when we argue against abortion. But the argument against abortion has nothing at all to do with religion. It has to do with science, and with the universal moral law. It is the argument for abortion that is based on religion. That is, the Left's satanic religion of self-worship. L...
