Everyone knows Big Food is poisoning Americans ... but most have no idea the dark reason why



It’s no longer a secret that most of the food Americans eat is detrimental to their health. From chemical pesticides and GMOs to artificial additives, preservatives, and dyes, much of the common foods available today are loaded with junk known to cause health issues — even serious ones, like cancer and disease.

Few, however, know that Big Food is largely owned by tobacco companies. On this episode of “Relatable,” Allie Beth Stuckey sits down with Ashley and Patrick Sullivan, the creators of the documentary “Breaking Big Food,” which pulls the curtain back on how the tobacco industry hijacked our food system and sparked a major health crisis.

“In 1985, R.J. Reynolds, the maker of Camel cigarettes, purchased Nabisco for about $5 billion. In 1988, Philip Morris, the maker of Marlboro cigarettes, purchased Kraft Foods for about $13 billion,” Patrick explains, noting that “these are just two of the examples of Big Tobacco buying up” big name food companies.

“By the 1990s, Big Tobacco actually controlled about 40% of the food supply in America,” he adds.

Ashley explains that the reason for the push to control Big Food stemmed from the government’s decades-long anti-smoking campaign that resulted in a sharp decline in U.S. adult smoking rates — and a whole lot less cigarette sales.

“[Tobacco companies] saw number one, the industry that they were in was going down in flames and maybe saw an opportunity in the food industry to go in and say, ‘We are the addiction people, let's figure out how to apply what we know to processed foods,”’ she says.

“How did that actually affect the ingredients in the products at these companies?” Allie asks.

Patrick says it began with the most rudimentary of business questions: “How do we get our customers to buy more of our products?”

Science provided the answer.

“The tobacco scientists became food scientists, and they began studying how do we tickle the pleasure centers of the brain with potato chips and candy and sodas, and they found this sort of perfect mixture of fat, salt, and sweet that makes it so no one can eat just one,” he explains.

They also found ways to save money by using preservatives to expand the shelf life of food products and making cost-effective ingredient swaps, like “switching from cane sugar to high fructose corn syrup.”

Companies used crafty marketing strategies, Ashley notes, to distract the public so it didn’t notice the significant changes that were being made to food ingredients.

“Let's color this with red dye 40 and make it look really pretty. Let's do these fun ads. Let's target children, make it fun for them to want to purchase these foods,” she says.

“Let's put a toy inside of the cereal. Let's give a free gift with a Happy Meal,” Patrick adds.

Then the government inverted the food pyramid, recommending high portions of grain over any other food group. That wasn’t because humans thrive on a grain-rich diet but because of the “lobbying efforts on the behalf of grain producers,” Patrick notes.

‘I do, in fact, hold animus’: Washington school district sued for open discrimination against legal Bible program



LifeWise Academy is a nonprofit Christian organization founded in 2018 that provides off-site, Bible-based religious instruction to public school students during the regular school day. The program is fully compliant with the three criteria of released time laws (affirmed by the 1952 U.S. Supreme Court ruling in Zorach v. Clauson): classes are held off school property, it’s privately funded, and participation is voluntary with parental consent.

But LifeWise is nonetheless being attacked at some schools — often by those who welcome progressive initiatives, like Pride Month, in the classroom.

On a recent episode of “Relatable,” Allie Beth Stuckey sat down with LifeWise Academy founder and CEO Joel Penton to discuss the program and its ongoing battles with progressive schools.

Serving tens of thousands of students across hundreds of schools in over 30 states, LifeWise Academy Bible lessons are designed to take students through the entire Bible in just five years.

“So a child will start Genesis 1 in first grade, and by the time they finish elementary school and fifth grade, they've been through the entire Bible,” says Penton, noting that lessons have a three-part focus: head (knowing the Scripture), heart (gospel connection), and hands (living it out).

The result is not only that kids from Christian homes become more educated on Scripture, but children who do not come from Christian homes hear and accept the gospel.

Penton tells a sweet story of a young girl who joined LifeWise Academy and brought the gospel home to her entire family.

“[She] came home, and she said, ‘Why aren't we talking about God here?’ And so they started going to church, and by the end of the story, there's a family of nine that have all been baptized, and they're members of the church,” he says.

The heartwarming stories of how LifeWise classes impact children and their families roll in every single day, Penton tells Allie.

And yet some schools are resistant to allowing LifeWise to impact their school community.

While 90% of schools say yes to LifeWise programs, there is “a very vocal minority,” says Penton, that go to great lengths to prevent campus startups.

These people “do not like the Bible; they see it as regressive ... and they don't want anybody to have access,” he explains, “and even though it's optional, and they don't have to sign their own child up, they don't like that anyone can sign their child up.”

These community members protest LifeWise programs at school board meetings and engage in hashtag activism, but most of the time, Penton says, they end up unintentionally helping the cause.

He gives the example of a school district in Ohio ending its LifeWise program after two years, which sparked such intense backlash, Gov. Mike DeWine (R) signed House Bill 8, requiring all public school districts to adopt a religious released-time policy. This led to roughly 80 additional school districts starting LifeWise programs.

But in deep-blue places like the state of Washington, the resistance is intense.

Allie plays a clip of Charles Adkins, a member of the Everett Public Schools Board of Directors in Washington state. At a board meeting, he said, “I want to make it very, extremely, abundantly clear that yes, I do in fact hold animus towards LifeWise Academy.”

Everett Public Schools, says Penton, have policies that are “transparently discriminatory and aimed at LifeWise Academy.” Compared to other secular programs, which require a one-time parent permission slip, parents of students in LifeWise Academy must “walk in a permission slip each and every week.”

“They're just trying to create more obstacles to make it more difficult,” says Allie.

But weekly permission slips aren’t the only barriers facing LifeWise students.

“If we give a child a worksheet, maybe they colored a picture of Moses or something ... when they go back to school, it has to be in a sealed envelope,” says Penton, noting that other programs do not have this requirement.

When LifeWise attempted to resolve the district’s policies internally with the school board, they reportedly received no response. First Liberty Institute then filed a federal lawsuit against Everett Public Schools on behalf of LifeWise Academy and families, alleging unconstitutional viewpoint discrimination and hostile treatment of the religious released-time program.

“What's wild is that the letter we sent said, ‘We believe you hold animus,’ which, you know, they're supposed to say, ‘No, we don't.’ And then [Adkins] said at a school board meeting into a microphone that he does hold animus,” says Penton, joking that First Liberty “really appreciated” his convenient candor.

While the lawsuit is still ongoing, Penton notes all he wants is for “policies to go back to normal” and for LifeWise Academy “to be treated as anybody else would.”

Daughters of the American Revolution society rejects definition of ‘woman,’ opens door to transgenders



The Daughters of the American Revolution is a genealogical society for women whose relatives helped America gain independence 250 years ago.

The society has been around for 135 years, but it just voted to allow men in.

At the organization's 135th Continental Congress, a resolution to define “woman” as someone born female was struck down 1,481 to 984. DAR leadership had already been allowing men who identify as women to join — and now five men are members.

“The wokesters have now accomplished institutional capture in one of our age-old historical institutions here in the United States,” Stuckey says, noting that while conservatives have had some “major wins” recently, “woke is not dead.”


And unless you “eradicate it completely,” she explains that it will “keep coming back like mold.”

“So, don’t have any delusions that wokeness and progressivism has waned. It will come back with a vengeance, especially if they take political power in the midterms and then in 2028. So, the resolution stated this, and praise God for you, woman, who brought this forth,” Stuckey says.

The struck-down resolution by the resistance group Daughters Advocating for Restoration said, “The term ‘woman’ shall be understood to clearly mean a woman who was born female, and therefore, individuals who were born male shall not be eligible for membership; transgender women shall not be eligible for membership; and men who have their birth certificates changed from male to female shall not be eligible for membership.”

The group’s reasoning for allowing men into the group is that while the existing bylaws require members to be women, they do not define the term “woman.”

This, Stuckey says, is “why it’s so important for us Christians to define our terms.”

“We are supposed to be a bastion of courage and clarity,” she says.

“There’s a lot of people who want to be confused, so they are actually sowing chaos through the confusion. That’s what they want to do. They might do that in the name of empathy or niceness or whatever it is,” she continues.

“But there are a lot of people who don’t want the confusion, who don’t want the chaos, who just want to be told what is real, what is true,” she says. “That’s where Christians come in.”

The IVF industry has a dirty little secret — and it’s not required to tell you



BlazeTV host Allie Beth Stuckey has long been vocal about her opposition to in vitro fertilization. Between embryos being routinely frozen, discarded, or destroyed; the high health risks posed to both women and babies; eugenics-like embryo selection; and technology that takes us from what’s natural to what’s possible in often unethical and immoral ways, IVF is a hard no for the Christian, she argues.

However, now there’s another issue to add to the list: IVF mix-ups.

On this episode of “Relatable,” Allie pulls the curtain back on a disturbing reality the IVF industry keeps hidden.

In December 2025, a white couple from Florida — Tiffany Score and Steven Mills — went through IVF at the Fertility Center of Orlando. Tiffany gave birth to a healthy baby girl whom they named Shea.

But there was one problem: The child was not theirs.

Shea’s skin color and features looked nothing like either parent. Genetic testing confirmed that she was in fact 100% South Asian and not biologically related to either parent.

After meetings with both sets of parents, they reached a custody agreement. Score and Mills would raise Shea as her permanent custodial parents, while her biological parents would have some involvement in her life but not primary custody. The biological parents reportedly wanted to keep Shea but accepted the custody agreement due to the legal challenges of claiming a child carried and born by another woman.

“Just think about this as a mom, how hard this would be,” Allie sighs, sympathizing deeply with both sets of parents.

Score and Mills sued the Fertility Center of Orlando and its lead reproductive endocrinologist for negligence in implanting the wrong embryo. Shea’s genetic parents are also suing the clinic, which permanently closed earlier this year.

“[Score and Mills are] also looking to track down their own embryos and find out if one of their embryos might have also been implanted in another woman ... or if they still exist,” Allie says.

Tragically, this mix-up isn’t an anomaly. Robert Marcereau, the attorney representing Shea’s biological parents, has handled multiple high-profile IVF and embryo error cases across clinics.

But perhaps the most shocking part of IVF mix-ups is that clinics are not required to report them.

“America is a wild, wild west for the fertility industry. It is so unregulated, it’s insane,” Allie says.

‘37 years left’: Seth Gruber’s chilling warning for America’s 250th birthday



Pro-lifer warrior Seth Gruber has a chilling message for Americans celebrating the nation’s 250th birthday: “To celebrate America, this 250th, while simultaneously doing nothing to tear down the high places of weird, gay sex stuff and baby killing would merely be the decoration of a coffin.”

On this enlightening episode of “Relatable” with Allie Beth Stuckey, Gruber warns that America has “37 years left” before she fails — unless Christians are willing to rise up and be “the last stand.”

Gruber begins by sharing two facts that should alarm anyone who cares about America’s longevity:

  • In a 2025 interview with Noema Magazine, celebrated historian Niall Ferguson said, “My sense is that history has always been against any republic lasting 250 years.”
  • J.D. Unwin’s 1934 book “Sex and Culture” — a massive study of 80 primitive societies and six major civilizations across 5,000 years of history — found strong positive correlation between a society’s level of sexual restraint (especially premarital chastity and monogamy) and its cultural energy, creative flourishing, and societal achievement in art, science, architecture, literature, etc.

Given America’s age and modern culture’s celebration of all things sexually depraved, Gruber believes the nation is a ticking time bomb.

According to Unwin’s research, “Societies that adopted and ... codified total sexual freedom collapsed within 90 to 100 years,” he explains.

He pinpoints 1973 as the year America embraced “total sexual freedom” thanks to three landmark events: Roe v. Wade that made abortion a constitutional right, the Supreme Court’s ruling in Miller v. California that effectively opened the floodgates for widespread, legal pornography distribution, and the passing of the Endangered Species Act that gave more legal protections to animals than unborn children.

These developments put a “demonic trinity” on America’s throne, says Gruber: Molech, the god of child sacrifice, Ashtoreth, the goddess of sexual immorality, and Baal, the god of animal worship.

“That should be a little bit of an Old Testament alarm bell for the church in America that maybe we came into something of a demonic trinity and agreement in ‘73 that codified total sexual freedom,” he tells Allie.

“That’s why I think America began its 90- to 100-year clock in ‘73, which means we could be approaching the third and final chapter of Western civilization in this republic as we understand it today,” he warns. “That should be a sobering wake-up call.”

Allie Beth Stuckey calls out dangerous Islam myth pushed on Tucker Carlson’s podcast



On a recent episode of his show, Tucker Carlson interviewed Christian commentator and theologian J.D. Hall on Christian Zionism, dispensationalism, and related topics.

During the discussion, Hall argued that Islam has historically been “kind” to Christians, especially under the Ottoman Empire.

Allie Beth Stuckey, however, believes this Muslim-sympathic interview is another attempt by Carlson to “whitewash Islam.”

On this episode of “Relatable,” Allie dives into the real history of Islam’s relationship with Christianity.

“When the Ottomans were in control of the promised land for 400 years in the millet system, they didn't charge churches tax. Israel started just a few years ago,” Hall said, arguing that the Muslim rulers were actually “very kind to Christians.”

Citing the work of Raymond Ibrahim — a prominent historian specializing in Islamic history, the Middle East, and the historical and contemporary interactions between Islam and the West — Allie calls Hall’s claim about the taxes “misleading.”

“Churches weren't specifically taxed, but Christians ... had to pay an extra tax called the jizya that was imposed on non-Muslims. That was the only way to guarantee any kind of protection,” Allie corrects.

“It's true that the Ottomans allowed religious communities to govern many of their own affairs ... but non-Muslims remained second-class subjects. In addition to paying extra taxes, they faced restrictions on churches, on evangelism, legal rights, dress, bearing arms,” she continues.

Hall’s claim that Muslims were kind to Christians, however, “is just not true” at all, says Allie. “The Islamic Ottoman Empire persecuted Christians for centuries, killed them, enslaved them for centuries.”

She then gives the example of the Muslim takeover of Constantinople — “the center of Eastern Orthodox Christianity” and “the last remnant of the Roman Empire.”

“So when the city's defenses gave way, thousands of civilians crowded into the Hagia Sophia, the city's largest church, seeking safety, and the Ottoman troops led by Sultan Mehmed II forced their way inside, and the refuge became the scene of looting, enslavement, widespread abuse, including mass rape,” says Allie.

She reads eyewitness accounts from Thomas the Eparch and Joshua Diplovatatzes (two Byzantine figures who witnessed and documented the city’s fall): “Then, he (Sultan Mehmed II) seized one of the grand duke’s daughters, who was quite beautiful, and made her lie on the great altar of the Hagia Sophia with a crucifix under her head and then raped her. Then, the most brutish of the Turks seized the finest noble women, virgins, and nuns of the city and violated them in the presence of the Greeks and in the sacrilege of Christianity.”

“Wow — things haven't changed in centuries,” says Allie. “This is the same thing that happens to Christians today in very similar manners, certainly in places like Nigeria and Uganda.”

“It is not just the pillaging of Christian women; it is the purposeful blasphemy against the Christian God.”

Adoption agency draws a line: Children need a mom and a dad — and the stats prove it



A Christian adoption agency just drew a major line in the sand.

Bethany Christian Trust has committed to prioritizing child welfare and biblical truth over adult identity by announcing it will only place children with families that align with its biblical statement of faith starting in June 2027.

And BlazeTV host Allie Beth Stuckey is thrilled, especially considering the research backs up the agency's belief that children should be raised by a mother and a father — not by homosexual couples.

“According to a study in 2012, a study by Regnerus, children of LGBT parents fare worse than other children on 77 out of 80 social outcome measures,” Stuckey begins.


“So according to the study, compared with children raised by their married, biological parents, children of homosexual parents attain lower levels of education, report less safety and security within their family of origin, experience greater ongoing negative effects from their family of origin, are more likely to struggle with depression, anxiety, have higher rates of arrest,” she says.

A separate study also “showed poor education outcomes for children of LGBT parents, finding they’re 35% less likely to progress normally through school” and “suffer emotional problems at twice the rate of children raised by a mother and father.”

“Child objectification is going to end now. You’re not going to be sacrificing your kids to the pagan gods anymore,” Stuckey says. “We’re going to stop that.”

“You’re not going to sacrifice your child on the altar of progressivism. No, no, no. Not as long as we have a say in it,” she continues.

“I’m very encouraged with just the allegiance to not only biblical morality but reality, too, because science statistics are always catching up with God,” she adds, “They’re always catching up with what the Bible says.”

Fatherhood under attack: Allie Beth Stuckey calls out media's latest ​hit pieces on dads



This past Father’s Day weekend, an article on fatherhood in the New York Times went viral.

However, it wasn’t about a great father. It was about a woman who transitioned and calls herself a father.

“You might be thinking, ‘Really? In the year of our Lord 2026, this is what the New York Times is talking about? I thought we were over this madness. I thought we realized and successfully stigmatized roping kids into being sources of affirmation for gender delusion,'” BlazeTV host Allie Beth Stuckey says on “Relatable.”

The headline reads, “To my daughter, my gender was never complicated.”


The article contains cartoons to help describe the relationship between “father” and daughter, including one where the daughter asks, “How long did you have breasts for Dad?”

“What a tragic, tragic line for a child to utter. The daughter is later shown at school with friends where a friend says, ‘You can’t grow a beard. You’re a girl.’ And the daughter responds, ‘My dad did, and he was a girl,’” Stuckey explains.

“And this is supposed to prove that this is super simple. Or maybe it proves that it is so delusional that a child who still believes that there is a fat man that can circle the universe in one night, fit down their chimney, and put presents under the tree like that. They believe it because they believe all kinds of fantastical things,” she continues.

But the New York Times isn’t the only publication to do the opposite of celebrating fatherhood.

“There was also this piece in the Toronto Star: ‘A modest proposal: Why it’s time to abolish Father’s Day,’” Stuckey says, pointing out that the article is a bit of a “bait and switch.”

In the article, the author laments the pressure put on children to buy gifts, claiming that the real gift is quality time.

“If your problem is materialism, that's one thing. Or you just think it’s, you know, a made-up reason to buy Hallmark cards, that’s fine,” she says, adding, “But the title, we need to abolish Father’s Day, or we need to abolish Mother’s Day, another thing that I’ve heard in the past due to some undue burden that’s just perpetuating this idea that celebrating fathers and positive fatherhood is not something that we need to do.”

JD Vance reveals the heartbreaking conversation that convinced him to have a fourth child



Charlie Kirk’s death has affected people across America, and Vice President JD Vance is no exception.

In an interview with BlazeTV host Allie Beth Stuckey, Vance revealed that Kirk’s passing is what inspired his family to grow even more.

“So this has been sort of an ongoing conversation, as it probably is with all families with a lot of kids, and you know, I remember when we had our first kid and you go from zero to one, I was like, I’m never doing this again,” Vance tells Stuckey.

“It was such a shock to the system,” he explains, noting that his oldest was a “tougher” baby.

“And then we had number two and number three. And now I’m just all like, I would have nine kids,” he says.


Vance’s wife, Usha, just turned 40, which, he points out, has made it a little harder.

“The older that you get, the harder it is on the body. And so she was kind of like, you know, I don’t really know that I want to be pregnant again. Like I’d love to have a fourth baby; I don’t want to be pregnant again with all the spotlight,” he explains.

“And you know, when Charlie died … we fly out the morning of the 11th, pick up his body in Utah, and then fly him and Erika and some of the family back to Arizona. And you know, there’s so many things I remember from that moment, and you know, you see Erika and you want to say something profound, but what can you possibly say? There’s just nothing to say,” he continues.

However, what he recalls Erika saying is what changed his mind about having a fourth baby.

“She sort of just makes this observation through her tears that she really wishes they had had more kids. They have two little kids who have actually stayed here a number of times since Charlie passed away. And for me, at least, that really drove it home,” he says.

“For me, it was like, we have to have a fourth baby, and she got pregnant like six weeks later,” he adds.

Etsy cracks down on spell-casting after a decade of turning a blind eye



Despite banning metaphysical services (like spell-casting, hexes, clairvoyant readings, prayers or rituals promising outcomes, etc.) in 2015, Etsy has largely looked the other way as "Etsy witches" built lucrative businesses around custom spell work.

In September 2025, a Jezebel article satirically detailing how its writers hired Etsy witches to curse conservative activist Charlie Kirk drew intense backlash after he was assassinated just two days later.

However, now the online marketplace for handmade, vintage, and unique goods has suddenly started strictly enforcing the policy, leading to shop removals and listing takedowns.

BlazeTV host Allie Beth Stuckey was encouraged by the news because witchcraft is a very real danger, she says.

“Christians know that demonic activity is real and that witchcraft is real because Satan is real, and he works through these means that might just seem silly and superstitious but actually are vectors and vessels of his workings and of his power,” Allie explains.

The good news, she says, is “witchcraft doesn't have any dominion over the Christian” because Christians are “indwelt by the Holy Spirit.”

“However, because of its evil and because of the effect that it has on culture, the effect that it has on societies, we really have to care,” she argues. “When it's becoming popularized, when it's becoming normalized, when it's becoming commercialized, when billions and billions of dollars are being made by people casting spells on others through a seemingly innocuous site like Etsy, we've got a problem.”

Part of the problem is the inevitable fraud that results from selling intangible goods.

“When you're selling intangible things and you're kind of commercializing these spiritual, abstract practices, it's obviously rife with the potential for fraud and all different kinds of things and can also be very damaging if people don't feel like they got their money's worth,” says Allie.

But the even bigger issue is the darkness millions of people are being lured into.

Allie lists some of the spells that have been sold on Etsy, including wealth-enhancing spells, love spells promising to make an “avoidant” crush become “obsessed” with the spell buyer, and hexes that supposedly cast curses on one’s enemies.

“It actually is very sad when you think about the desperation that someone has to have and just the longing, the unrequited love that someone has to feel, the purposelessness, the lostness that someone is embroiled in to believe this kind of advertisement and then to pay money for it,” she sighs.

On top of that, these spells — regardless of whether they’re real witchcraft or just scams — lead people away from the truth.

Allie calls the lost souls looking to witchcraft to solve their problems “just another manifestation of exchanging the God of Scripture for the God of self.”

While many of the Etsy spells are undoubtedly hoaxes, Allie believes that some are probably legitimate.

“I actually don't put it past Satan to use this means to get people to have faith in things like witchcraft, even if it gives you something that you want temporarily, as long as he can win the long-term war for your soul,” she warns.

Sadly, the evil of witchcraft is almost certainly not what motivated Etsy to suddenly start enforcing the company's decade-old policy.

“I don't think that the people at Etsy, who are very anti-pro-life and who are very pro-trans and pro-abortion, I don't think they have moral qualms with witchcraft,” says Allie.

“I think they don't want to be on the hook for the potential of fraud. They don't want to deal with the customer service issues of people not getting the outcome that they want. They don't want to deal with another negative PR campaign [like the Charlie Kirk scandal] ... so they're like, ‘It's just not worth it.”’
