Tucker & Candace Got It Wrong on Israel & Iran The Real Divide Exposed

Zach Terry — Mon, 09 Mar 2026 19:32:00 +0000

In this explosive Code Red interview, top attorney and Coffee & Covid founder Jeff Childers breaks down the FAST-MOVING reality behind President Trump's military action against Iran — the strikes that took out the Supreme Leader, crippled nuclear sites, and left the regime reeling.

Why did corporate media act SURPRISED after a MONTH of Trump warnings?

Is this "Venezuela Model" regime change — leader out, government stays, then REAL elections? Why is the entire world (Russia, China, even Gulf states) eerily SILENT? And how does massive fundraising ($1 TRILLION conservative war chest?), Epstein file drops timed for midterms, and congressional votes approving the action change EVERYTHING?

Childers dismantles the "unconstitutional" claims, the MAGA "fracturing" narrative (it's FAKE — here's proof), anti-Israel voices in the movement, and why Democrats are in TOTAL disarray heading into midterms.

Mistaken Identity - The Story of how a Tragic Hunting Accident Saved Thousands

Zach Terry — Thu, 26 Feb 2026 10:00:00 +0000

In this powerful episode of Code Red, Pastor Zach Terry sits down with evangelist Mark Witt of Following Our Father Ministry. Mark shares the heartbreaking story of losing his godly father in a tragic hunting accident on the last day of deer season when Mark was just 12 years old. What began as years of bitterness toward God transformed into one of the most remarkable redemption stories.

Through this pain, Mark and his brother Dan have seen countless people — including pastors, deacons, Sunday school teachers, prisoners, and everyday "rednecks" at wild game dinners — come to genuine faith in Jesus. Mark unpacks forgiveness, the reality of heaven and hell, why so many in church may be "missing heaven by 18 inches" (head knowledge vs. heart trust), and how God turns tragedy into eternal impact.

This conversation will challenge you to examine your own eternity and encourage you to share the gospel boldly. If you've lost a father, struggled with unforgiveness, or wondered if God can use real pain for good — this is for you.

40 Years of Marriage, 5 Kids, 16 Grandkids & Still Crazy in Love – Brad & Vicki Sykes | Code Red

Zach Terry — Sun, 23 Nov 2025 16:35:00 +0000

They’ve been married 40 years, raised 5 kids, now have 16 grandkids on the way… and they STILL love working together, laughing together, and serving Jesus together.

In this heartfelt, laugh-out-loud episode of Code Red, Pastor Zach Terry and Julie sit down with Jacksonville power couple Brad & Vicki Sykes — top-producing realtors, marketplace ministers, and two of the most joy-filled people you’ll ever meet.

You’ll hear:

How a sorority mixer at TCU turned into a 40-year love story

The raw story of Vicki’s eating disorder, dark days, and the moment Jesus radically changed everything — 8 months pregnant!

The wild Mattress Firm years, the “money-laundering” conspiracy rumors (Brad sets the record straight ), and how God moved them to Jacksonville for 28 years (when they planned on 2)

Why they chose a 3-bedroom house for 7 people and NEVER upgraded

The “talk-to-Dad-first” dating rule that weeded out boys and kept only men

Daily prayer over your spouse for 30+ years — Brad reveals the awkward first morning and why he’s never stopped

Empty-nest secrets: How to stay madly in love when the kids leave (and why so many couples divorce right then)

Holiday traditions with 16 grandbabies coming — and why they’re letting go of expectations with a smile

The one thing their adult kids say they want most: “We want what Mom and Dad have.”

If you’re married your best friend… or you WANT to… this episode will bless you, challenge you, and probably make you tear up laughing.

Brad & Vicki Sykes

Jacksonville’s favorite Christian realtors

Brad leads the Jacksonville Business Fellowship every Friday 7–8 AM (Southside Methodist Family Life Center) — men, just show up!

Faith, Flight & Artificial Intelligence – When the Holy Spirit Meets Neural Engineering | Ken Watts

Zach Terry — Sat, 08 Nov 2025 13:26:00 +0000

What happens when a fighter pilot, engineer, and Christian author explores the intersection of faith, technology, and the military?

In this powerful episode of Code Red, Pastor Zach Terry sits down with Ken Watts — Marine Corps veteran, aerospace engineer, and author of Neurafact — to talk about how the Holy Spirit might interact with artificial intelligence and human cognition. From carrier decks to neural links, from Scripture to simulated dogfights, this episode dives deep into the big questions:

Can AI sense the spiritual?

Do our brains leave a “neuro-artifact” of divine intervention?

And what does the future of faith look like in a world of machines that think?

You’ll hear about:

The making of Neurafact — a novel that blends techno-thriller tension with biblical theology

Ken’s firsthand experience with carrier-based aviation and electronic warfare

The fascinating overlap between AI, neuroscience, and spiritual phenomena

The biblical framework for evaluating technology: receive, redeem, or reject?

How Christians can navigate the rise of artificial intelligence with wisdom and faith

Code Red Talk: The Stories Behind Country Music with Dylan Weldon (The Drifting Cowboy Podcast)

Zach Terry — Sat, 25 Oct 2025 19:09:22 +0000

️ Code Red Talk: The Stories Behind Country Music with Dylan Weldon (The Drifting Cowboy Podcast)

In this powerful episode of Code Red Talk, Zach Terry sits down with Dylan Weldon, host of The Drifting Cowboy Podcast — one of the most compelling voices in today’s traditional country revival.

From Waylon Jennings and Merle Haggard to Willie Nelson and Sturgill Simpson, Dylan shares the untold stories, surprising legacies, and hard-won lessons that shaped the sound of American grit.

DILLON WELDON BIO: Dillon is from the small, rural town of Sugartown in southwest Louisiana, population 176. He has loved country music as long as he can remember. When he was 3 years old, he asked for a Sony Walkman and a Johnny PayCheck’s Greatest Hits cassette for Christmas. He has always been fascinated with the history of country music, its artists, songwriters and the stories behind the songs. Dillon now lives in Nashville and has made a career out of his passion for country music history, through his social media platform and the Drifting Cowboy podcast where he has sat down with legends such as Jamey Johnson, Travis Tritt, Bobby Braddock, Randy Travis and many more. Dillon believes that the history of country music is as important as the music itself and should be kept alive.

Expect deep insight, a few laughs, and a front-row seat to the intersection of faith, culture, and country music — told by two men who live it.
