Today With Dr. Wendy

In this episode, Dr. Wendy Patrick and attorney Larry Dershem sit down with entrepreneur, former adviser to British Prime Minister David Cameron, and Fox News contributor Steve Hilton to discuss his campaign to become the next governor of California.

Hilton breaks down why the Golden State is politically broken and increasingly unaffordable for millions of families—and why the status quo isn’t working. He shares his common-sense vision for restoring opportunity in California: good jobs, affordable homeownership, safe neighborhoods, and high-quality schools.

If you care about the future of California and want to hear a bold, optimistic blueprint for fixing what’s gone wrong, this is a conversation you won’t want to miss.

Does Gen Z have an identity crisis? In this episode, Dr. Wendy Patrick and attorney Larry Dershem sit down with de-transitioner Chloe Cole to examine the cultural, medical, and social forces shaping today’s youth.

Chloe shares her deeply personal story of how, at just 12 years old, she was influenced by online communities, medical professionals, and trusted adults to pursue hormone replacement therapy, testosterone injections, and irreversible “top surgery.” She recounts how physicians, psychologists, school officials, and internet peers reinforced the belief that she was “born in the wrong body”—and how questioning that narrative was discouraged.

Now de-transitioned, Chloe reflects on the long-term consequences of so-called “gender-affirming care” and how she ultimately broke free from what she describes as a powerful and deceptive ideology. This episode raises urgent questions about medical ethics, informed consent, and the responsibility adults have to protect vulnerable children.

Ken Ham, founder and CEO of Answers in Genesis–U.S., the Creation Museum, and the world-renowned Ark Encounter, is one of the most influential Christian voices in North America. In this powerful episode, Dr. Wendy Patrick and co-host, attorney Larry Dershem, sit down with Ken Ham for an in-depth conversation on restoring a biblical worldview in today’s culture.

Together, they explore the creation vs. evolution debate, examining how faith and science intersect and how fact-based scientific evidence supports the biblical account of creation. Ken also shares insights on cultural challenges facing Christianity and practical ways families can stand firm in their faith.

This thought-provoking and inspiring episode is a must-hear for believers of all ages.

Join co-host and attorney Larry Dershem for a compelling conversation with award-winning actor, writer, director, and producer Max McLean—founder and artistic director of New York City–based Fellowship for Performing Arts (fpatheatre.com). Renowned for his acclaimed stage adaptations of works by theologian and author C. S. Lewis, McLean delves into the enduring relevance of The Screwtape Letters. Together, they explore how Lewis’s 1942 classic uses wit, irony, and a devilishly inverted point of view to examine temptation, morality, and human frailty. The discussion reveals why Lewis’s insights into spiritual warfare may be even more timely and illuminating today than when the book was first published.  

How Deep Is Your Love?
In this inspiring conversation, Dr. Wendy Patrick and attorney Larry Dershem sit down with Holly Swenson, author of the newly released Stop, Drop, Grow, & Glow: Forming Deeper and More Joyful Connections with Yourself and Your Children.

Two guests. Two vital conversations. One unifying call to choose joy, truth, and life.

For decades, the political left and much of the mainstream media have pushed a simplistic—and false—narrative: that being Latino automatically means being liberal. They’ve dismissed opposition to their agenda on open borders, defunding the police, and socialist-style economics as “racist,” rather than engaging with the real convictions of millions of Hispanic Americans.

That narrative is collapsing.

In this episode, Dr. Wendy Patrick and attorney Larry Dershem sit down with TV news anchor Chris Salcedo to discuss his new book, The Rise of the Liberty-Loving Latino: A New American Revolution. Together, they explore why a growing number of Latinos are rejecting media stereotypes and standing up for faith, family, freedom, and the U.S. Constitution.

You’ll also learn why legacy media largely ignores this movement—and how its political, cultural, and spiritual momentum played a decisive role in the re-election of President Donald J. Trump in 2024.

This isn’t a trend. It’s a realignment.

Latinos are done being told what to think. They’re thinking independently—and voting accordingly.

Corruption and waste in federal and state government are costing taxpayers billions—and Minnesota’s ongoing welfare fraud scandal is a prime example. This must-hear episode takes a hard look at who’s really siphoning off your hard-earned tax dollars.

In this must-hear episode, Dr. Wendy Patrick and attorney Larry Dershem interview one of the nation’s leading voices on the subject: New York Times bestselling author and media commentator James Hirsen.

Discover why, when a society abandons objective morality, it can undermine not only a nation but an entire civilization—opening the door to chaos, anarchy, and even tyranny.

Who really gets to raise our kids — parents or the state?

In this episode, Dr. Wendy Patrick and attorney Larry Dershem sit down with the President of the National Center for Law & Policy to discuss the growing conflict between public schools and parents over who shapes a child’s moral upbringing.

Patriotism—love of one’s country—has been honored throughout history as a fundamental virtue, cherished across nations and cultures. All nations and cultures, that is, except our own. Why has American patriotism faded from public life? Have our schools, movies, entertainment, and news shaped a view of our country that undermines its greatness? And more importantly, how can we reclaim the best of the American spirit?

Join us as we explore what changed, why it matters, and how we can restore the cultural confidence that once defined the United States.

In today’s culture, young men are often criticized or blamed for broader social challenges—yet many lack the guidance and positive role models they need.
