Paul Brandt — The most awarded male Country artist in Canadian history
Country Music
sensation Paul Brandt joins us as we chat with him about his spiritual life, his marriage and
his rise to the top with songs like "I Do", "For You" and the remake of the 1975 C.W. McCall
hit "Convoy".
Join us as we speak with an INTELLIGENT AMERICAN, live in the studio, taking your calls on everything from American/Canadian Politics to Hockey... from the recent Bush/Kerry election to Conservative Evangelicalism that brought him back from the depths of defeat! Dean has spent a fair amount of time on both sides of the border over the last 30 years, and as a hockey player agent and a former student of Yale, we figured this guy from Connecticut might just have something to say on the issue of Canada VS U.S.A.
Journey
Dave Moore
Dave was the senior Pastor at one of those American mega churches in Palm Desert, until
allegations of misappropriation of funds, sexual misconduct and... well just pick any accusation you can think of, were brought against him. Have a listen as Dave tells his side of the story. While you're at it... think about the devastating effect the Christian rumour-mill has had in your church. Now multiply that by 100 and add a touch of rejection by those whom Dave called friends and colleagues for many years, and you'll begin to grasp a little of what Dave Moore went through.
Some people feel that they're the most ignorant, arrogant and
abrasive (vocally and fashion wise) people on the planet. And yet others feel that we as
Canadians owe them big time when it comes to Canada's pathetic efforts at National Security.
What do you like and dislike about The States?
Also... should Prime Minister Paul Martin have guaranteed a "NO HECKLE" environment in
the House Of Commons so that President George W. Bush could have addressed them? Or should
George have sucked it up and done it anyway?
If your Pastor/Minister was involved in some act of immorality, should they step down from leadership?
And if so... for how long?
Is the Church really racist, gender bias & unsympathetic to those with disabilities?
The major American television networks recently pulled a commercial for the United Church of Christ showing two tough looking bouncers at the door of a church, turning away people of colour, someone in a wheelchair and a gay couple. Do you agree with the networks decision or do you feel this commercial actually reflects some underlying truth about the condition of the Church?
The Drew Marshall Show ran for 16 years but came to an end on June 29th 2019.
However, Drew has decided to leave the interview archives online and available for you.
So enjoy!
We are currently experiencing some technical difficulties with our site. This means that all audio archives can only be listened to with a computer and not a mobile device. Our apologies. We are looking into this.
DREW WHO? Since 2003, Drew Marshall has talked to everyone about whatever it is they believe, in a very light-hearted manner and with absolutely zero agenda, aside from a genuine personal curiosity to understand “belief”. Drew was adopted, grew up in a funeral home, survived a teenage suicide attempt, dropped out of school in Grade 9, ran away to California to be a wrangler, played semi-pro football with NFL/CFL tryouts, drove around North America volunteering for charities, tried to be a firefighter & a rodeo cowboy, was a stay at home dad, has worked a little in film and TV, became a Pastor in Australia and studied stand-up comedy & improv at Second City Toronto. These days he’s a hospital chaplain and hosts Canada’s most listened to spiritual talk show. He’s interviewed hundreds of celebrities & cultural icons about their beliefs or lack thereof. Struggling with his own faith, Drew sacrificed his eyesight for the last week of Lent, paid non-believers to go to church, drank with witches, celebrated with Wiccans, visited with Satanists, walked 1000 KM’s on the Camino de Santiago, then spent time writing in a monastery on an island off the coast of the Western Sahara during a three month vow of silence. Basically, he’s “Red Letter”, wandering, autodidactic iconoclast with agnostic tendencies and a microphone - a skeptical believer on an irreverent search for the sacred!
*Should you wish to reach out to Drew directly, please use the contact page. It might take a while for him to respond though, as he now lives on a farm and is no longer addicted to technology. (Which is a good thing as he's trying to write a stupid book and gets distracted easi - SQUIRREL!)
CAUTION: DO NOT CONTINUE IF YOU ARE 100% CERTAIN ABOUT YOUR BELIEFS
