Facing Regret for Political Change Frank Schaeffer 2025-09-08 | Facing Regret for Political ChangeAnd so reading your book was odd for me because there was a lot of stuff in there that I kind of don't want to think about anymore because we were part of something that's gone so horribly wrong. And I really feel bad about it for the part that we played. And then it went so much further than anything that even the people in the religious right could have imagined. And fast forward to the Trump administration today, you know, my dad would have just been so shocked. So, OK, that's an unusually long preamble, but I don't usually interview authors who have written books about where I live. Well, thank you so much for those very kind remarks. And it means a lot to me that you feel that I got someone like Jack Kemp right in personal experience.Excerpted from “In Conversation… with Frank Schaeffer • Geoffrey Kabaservice”youtu.be/7KiEuvK1Avk
The Problem With Moderates in Politics Frank Schaeffer 2025-09-08 | The Problem With Moderates in PoliticsThat's an incredibly incisive question. I remember talking with Doug Bailey, who was a political consultant who preferred to have moderate Republican clients back when that was possible. And yet he said, the real problem with moderates is that they are moderate. The idea of waving the sword of moderation and leading a parade down the street is just antithetical to who they are. They want to go home and pat the dog and and watch TV and that's not suitable when you're in competition with ideologues who are out there banging away and who are sacrificing every other dimension of their life to win political victory. What you need is to actually have fiery moderates, moderates who believe that their cause is so important that they can inspire others to follow them. And maybe that's the situation that we're coming into now as the country seems like it's falling apart And this 80-year US-led global order is also going to fall apart in ways that will really hit home negatively with most Americans. Maybe then moderates can actually recover that sense of fire. But they are temperamentally disadvantaged in many ways.Excerpted from “In Conversation… with Frank Schaeffer • Geoffrey Kabaservice”youtu.be/7KiEuvK1Avk
The Rise of the Post Christian Right Frank Schaeffer 2025-09-08 | The Rise of the Post-Christian RightI think part of what we're seeing now, Frank, is a prophecy that New York Times columnist Ross Douthat made a number of years ago. If you don't like the Christian right, wait till you see the post-Christian right. Yes, and I think he was so correct in that. That line, by the way, that you just quoted completely stuck with me. I remember reading it thinking, yes, what he said. And, you know, when you read some of the books that, you know, I've reviewed here, like Tim Alberta's book, The Kingdom, the Power and the Glory, and we talked to Tim, you know, Tim is a devout evangelical Christian. He's not a right winger. But what he's finding, which completely makes your point, the first place you see what Ross Douthat was talking about was in parishes themselves where the pastor, is under fire from his congregants for not being radically right wing MAGA enough. And they're making war on him, or certain factions are, because they are far more interested in the politics than they are in anything to do with Christianity. They don't wanna hear sermons about what Jesus would teach. They wanna hear sermons about why Donald Trump is so great and how awful the liberals are.Excerpted from “In Conversation… with Frank Schaeffer • Geoffrey Kabaservice”youtu.be/7KiEuvK1Avk
Buckley’s Civil Rights Regret & Admission Frank Schaeffer 2025-09-08 | Buckley’s Civil Rights Regret & Admission[T]o actually live up to something greater than ourselves that sometimes could force Bill Buckley to change his mind. And I think that's most vivid with the case of civil rights for African-Americans. Buckley's parents were both southerners, and he actually spent part of the winter in South Carolina where Strom Thurmond was a family friend before he entered politics. And he wrote the infamous 1957 National Review op-ed on the South must prevail, where he said that, you know, the white race must prevail in the South because it is the advanced race. Yeah, and you quote that in your book. Yes, that's right. And I also quote what Buckley said years later, which is that, you know, on this issue, I was wrong. Yes, I know that. I thought that Americans could evolve their way out of segregation. And it actually took the federal government's intervention to end Jim Crow. And people are so reluctant to commit to confess to any kind of error, especially in the political sphere, that that really did stand out to me.Excerpted from “In Conversation… with Frank Schaeffer • Geoffrey Kabaservice”youtu.be/7KiEuvK1Avk

A Candid Take on Periods & Gender Norms Frank Schaeffer 2025-08-13 | A Candid Take on Periods & Gender Norms“As I was doing the checkout, the male staff member asked the typical, everything okay during your stay, ma'am? I stared at him, squinting. I took a deep breath and said, you know, for the number of amenities you offer, you should include tampons or sanitary pads. Women also get their periods while traveling. His eyebrows shot up into his skull. He blushed. He gasped. He bit his bottom lip. Then he whispered, you're right, ma'am. I'll take note. And then you go on, 50% of the world's population isn't a minority. If men got periods, tampons would be considered a human right. Note to self, evangelize whenever possible that women have periods and it must be accepted as a normal part of life.” And then underneath you have for your hashtags, “#Madrid. #AuntFlo, #FuckThePatriarchy, #NormalizePeriods” So I read that precisely because that is the point of your story. This is all part of a man's world too, because we share the planet. And it's such a good point you've made. And I'm very pleased that's in there because... I love the way you wrote about it and you put it into a story. And one thing I love about your book, and then I'm going to shut up and let you talk a lot more is that, um, I finished this book without knowing, and I mean this as a compliment, without knowing whether you're a feminist or not. I'm not talking about the political side…Excerpted from In Conversation… with Frank Schaeffer • Amanda Quintero Aguerrevereyoutu.be/zM8YZzokg7U
Can Instagram Posts Become Real Literature? Frank Schaeffer 2025-08-09 | Can Instagram Posts Become Real Literature?But on the other hand, you're a good advertisement for living as an exhibitionist, posting everything about yourself on a phone. It's like, get the hell off your phone and live a little, but actually, if this comes out of it, that is a good counter argument. It's like, wait a minute, wait a minute. I know a real writer who wrote all her stuff, posted it online first, and this is a real book. So I'll tell you what my experience is like. It's like the first time I read a good graphic novel. It's like, I'm not going to read a comic. I enjoyed comic books when I was a kid, but don't tell me to start reading. And then you read a really good one or you look at the pic and you're saying, no, no, this is actually something. So someone had said to me, here's a book of stuff that originated with phone posts and texts on, where did you post? On Instagram. Yeah, Instagram. And to my generation, it's like, how am I supposed to take a book seriously that started on Instagram?Excerpted from In Conversation… with Frank Schaeffer • Amanda Quintero Aguerrevereyoutu.be/zM8YZzokg7U

I need your advice. Frank Schaeffer 2025-08-01 | Actually, I'm asking for your help.I’ve been writing books for over 40 years—maybe 15 or 16 of them by now—but this one feels different. The Gospel of Zip is a love story. One about my wife, Genie, who I’ve been with for 55 years since we were teenagers. And one about our dog, Zip, who sleeps in my bed and takes care of me like a night nurse. It’s also a story about what it means to live joyfully, to love well, and to rediscover the survival of the friendliest. It’s taken me seven years to write, and I think it might be the most important thing I’ve ever done.Now here’s the part I need your help with: I’m thinking of giving it away.No publisher, no paywall.Just me, reading it aloud to you in short sections on YouTube, Substack, and everywhere else I post.Would you listen? Would you watch? Would it matter to you? I’m serious—I want to hear from you. Should I do this? Yes or no?frankschaeffer.substack.com/p/i-need-your-advice?utm_source=youtube
