Too modern, too moderate

I was hoping for a Traditionalist point of view, but the fellow at hand was altogether too sympathetic to the sacred cows of this age ie gender ideology and racial politics. I listen to the end till I couldn't take it anymore when he started complaining about the lack of non-whites in the Orthodox Church.

Very disappointing.
