In this episode, Matthew Kaemingk joins me to talk about Can Religion Save Democracy?, the book he co-wrote with Shadi Hamid. As religious participation in America has declined, our politics has become more apocalyptic, and Matthew argues that's no coincidence: when we stop looking to faith for meaning, we start looking to politics.

Rhasidat Adeleke capped her season with a gutsy fourth-place finish in the 200m at London’s high-stakes Athlos meet, clocking 22.64 seconds and earning $15K—behind Olympic champ Gabby Thomas ($65K).

The event, part of Alexis Ohanian’s global push for women-only elite racing, paid big: Sophie O’Sullivan took $10K in fifth place in the 800m, while stars like Marileidy Paulino and Alaysha Johnson also cashed in.
