The Truth About Religious Liberty & Zionism + Some Housekeeping — Dave After Dark

In this episode of Dave After Dark, Dave breaks down the recent Religious Liberty Commission debate involving Carrie Prejean Boller and the growing tensions between Catholic theology and modern political Zionism. What was actually said? Why did it spark backlash? And what does the debate reveal about the deeper fault lines between religious liberty, Church teaching, and geopolitical allegiance?

Dave walks through the theological and political implications for Catholics navigating today’s charged environment—where terms like “religious liberty,” “antisemitism,” and “Zionism” are often weaponized and misunderstood. What does the Church actually teach? Where do Catholics have prudential freedom—and where are there real doctrinal boundaries?

In the second half, Dave addresses important housekeeping: updates to the show format, future direction, upcoming guests, and what listeners can expect moving forward as Dave After Dark enters a new phase.

If you’re trying to make sense of the intersection between faith, politics, and power—this episode is essential listening.
