Ep 1282 | Autism Isn’t a Superpower — or a Death Sentence: A Story of Tough Love | Leland Vittert

Leland Vittert, American journalist and anchor for NewsNation, joins Allie to discuss his book "Born Lucky: A Dedicated Father, a Grateful Son, and My Journey with Autism." Through the interview, Leland discusses his secret diagnoses with autism as a child while his parents rejected accommodations and taught him to conquer adversity head-on. From relentless bullying throughout school to Middle East war zones and network news, Leland credits his dad’s “adapt to the world” philosophy for his success. Heart-wrenching, hope-filled stories prove that hardship forges character, tough parental love yields resilient adults, and God redeems every struggle.

Today Allie unpacks Matthew 18, which often gets used out of context and is misinterpreted. She dives into the difference between secret disputes and public rebukes, providing insight on how Christians should handle confrontation. Allie then looks back at 2025, highlighting the most significant events, such as Donald Trump's inauguration and Pope Leo XIV becoming the first American leader of the Catholic Church. She dives into some of her most memorable moments that took place, including the Share the Arrows conference and her Jubilee debate. Allie holds back tears as she talks about her fondest memories of Charlie Kirk and the legacy he leaves behind. Allie also pays respects to the giants of faith we lost this year: James Dobson, John MacArthur, Voddie Baucham, and Phil Robertson.

Allie and her father, Ron Simmons, unpack the heartbreaking tragedies that occurred over the weekend: the shooting at Brown University in the U.S. and the massacre at Australia's Bondi Beach. Allie also dives into the impending trial of Charlie Kirk's alleged assassin, where he's facing life in prison or the death penalty. Ron gives his take on the upcoming midterms and speaks into how the seemingly fractured Right can band together to come out victorious in 2028 against Democratic front-runner Gov. Gavin Newsom (D-Calif.). Plus Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-Texas) gives a crazy reason why America needs illegal aliens, and Dick Van Dyke turns 100, and he gives his advice on living a joy-filled life.

Allie interviews Dr. Josef Witt-Doerring, a psychiatrist and former FDA drug safety officer. He unveils the truth about Big Pharma and the detrimental side effects of medications for mental illnesses. SSRIs cause more harm than good; they blunt emotions, breed dependency, and often backfire long-term. Dr. Witt-Doerring advises patients to pursue holistic health that includes a balanced diet, sleep, exercise, and therapy. He and his wife have started TaperClinic, where they help people come off medications and find real solutions to their problems. Join us for an eye-opening discussion about the dark side of the pharmaceutical industry.

Today Allie explains why she chose not to teach her kids to believe in Santa Claus. While imagination is powerful, believing in Santa can cause confusion and ultimately muddy the true gospel message of Christmas. Allie provides practical ways and activities for parents to keep Christ at the forefront of the holiday season, like devotional reading and hymn-singing. She then dives into progressive churches, like Lake Street Church in Illinois, that have hijacked Christmas to make it into a political spectacle to push agendas like open borders and illegal immigration. Despite what the Left says, Jesus was not a refugee. He and his family fled within the Roman Empire under divine command; he was not a modern border-crosser. Tune in for biblical clarity and why Christ — not Santa Claus — is the real reason for the season.

Today Allie dives into the showdown between Candace Owens and TPUSA. She goes through fallible claims made by Candace and also highlights the response of Blake Neff, producer of "The Charlie Kirk Show." He has proposed a livestream on December 15 to debunk Candace's assassination theories. Truth requires facts, not secret sources or innuendos. Allie is also joined by two guests — Alliance Defending Freedom’s Erin Hawley and First Choice Women's Resource Centers Executive Director Aimee Huber — who reveal the New Jersey attorney general’s vicious subpoena attack on pro-life ministries.

Allie sits down with Colorado high school senior Sophia Shumaker and First Liberty attorney Keisha Russell after Sophia’s Bible-verse parking spot was censored. When the school banned “religious imagery,” Sophia painted a subtle backward fish — then fought back with First Liberty’s help. The district caved, changed the policy, and let her repaint it with her original design, which includes the Bible verse 1 Corinthians 13:4. This is a powerful reminder to be bold in your faith no matter your stage in life or occupation, be it a student or lawyer. Courage is contagious!

Lindsay was raised in an offshoot of the Way International, then handed over at 12 to cult leader Victor Barnard as one of his “maidens.” For 10 years, she endured grooming, sexual abuse, and spiritual torment — all justified by a twisted interpretation of scripture. At 23, she fled. Thirteen years later, the true gospel broke through. Allie hosts this gut-wrenching, hope-filled story of escaping a cult, confronting evil, and discovering the real Jesus who heals the deepest wounds.
