All eyes were on Carrie Prejean Boller during the 2009 Miss USA pageant when she was asked a pivotal question by one of the judges: “Should same-sex marriage be legalized throughout the country?” Her response shocked the audience, set off a storm of controversy, and ultimately cost her the crown.

Carrie joins us today to share the story from her perspective. She explains what it was like to stand firm in her beliefs and become one of the earliest victims of cancel culture. What should have been the worst day of her life instead became the beginning of something greater. Through her commitment to her values and her faith in God, Carrie turned a public loss into a new mission.

Over the past fifteen years she has built a career as a speaker and advocate for religious liberty, embraced a joyful marriage and motherhood, and ultimately converted to the Catholic Church. In this episode, Carrie opens up about her journey, the lessons she has learned, and why protecting religious liberty, especially in our schools, matters now more than ever.

In this episode, we explore the incredible story of St. Maximilian Kolbe—a man who kept hope alive in the darkest place on earth. While many know of his heroic sacrifice at Auschwitz, fewer have heard how he inspired his fellow prisoners to sing hymns of faith and defiance as they faced death together.

For guest Anthony D’Ambrosio, Kolbe’s legacy became deeply personal. After enduring eight years of a mysterious illness that stole his ability to sleep, Anthony began to experience visions of St. Maximilian. These encounters became a source of comfort and strength during his darkest nights. When Anthony later traveled to Poland to honor his hero, God placed a new mission before him: to make a film on a shoestring budget that would capture the power of grace even in humanity’s most desperate hour.


Anthony said yes and in the process, he found healing, restoration, and a renewed calling to share Kolbe’s message with the world. Don’t miss this powerful conversation about faith, suffering, and the courage to answer God’s call.
