So apparently it’s 2025 and we’re supposed to “normalize hating our husbands”, quietly quit our marriages, and then call midlife divorce “self-care.” That’s the message all over TikTok, Instagram, and even mainstream outlets like New York Magazine and The Telegraph—and I’m not buying it.

Today on The Isabel Brown Show, we’re diving into the viral trend of women proudly bashing their husbands online, being “filled with rage” when he’s sick, and posting content about wishing he would just… die. At the exact same time, legacy media is glamorizing “walkaway wives,” promoting “subconscious uncoupling,” and running pieces like “Why midlife divorce is good for you (as long as you’re a woman)” as if nuking your family is the pinnacle of female empowerment.

I also share honestly about my own temptations to slip into resentment, the spiritual danger of making ourselves the god of our own lives, and why I’m praying we fall back in love with being in love again—normalizing husbands as best friends instead of enemies.

Are you seeing the “husband hating” trend all over your feeds too? Have you felt the cultural pressure to view marriage as a trap instead of a blessing? Drop your thoughts, your stories, and what’s helped you fight for your marriage in the comments—I want to read them all.

Ep. 65

Today on The Isabel Brown Show, we’re diving into one of the strangest “Christian controversies” of 2025: people claiming Skillet’s new cover of O Come O Come Emmanuel is SATANIC. 

I watched the music video for the first time on camera — spoiler alert: it’s beautiful, powerful, and absolutely NOT demonic. 

Skillet frontman John Cooper joins me today to unpack the backlash, the meaning behind the song, and the incredible story of what happened in the studio the moment they recorded the heaviest section. John also shares the band’s Advent inspiration, how their music has brought countless people to Christ, and why Christians must stop confusing artistic intensity with evil. 

We talk about the spiritual battle playing out in America, the aftermath of Charlie Kirk’s assassination, and why the Church must rediscover courage and clarity. John offers practical advice for Christian parents, young believers, and anyone trying to walk in truth in a hostile world. 

Above all, Skillet’s heart for Jesus shines through, and this controversy reveals more about our lack of discernment than anything about their music. If you need hope, encouragement, and a reminder of what Christian boldness looks like — this is the episode for you.

Is Skillet Making SATANIC Music This Christmas? John Cooper May Surprise You | Ep. 67

Today on The Isabel Brown Show, we’re doing something a little different… and honestly a little terrifying.

A few weeks ago, an AI-powered teddy bear powered by ChatGPT and shipped from China was recalled after it started giving kids graphic sex advice, BDSM instructions, and even telling them where to find knives in their house—without being prompted for any of that. Yes, even CNN had to cover it.

So as a new mom who is firmly a wooden-toys-and-vintage-Americana kind of girl, I needed to know:

👉 Is that nightmare teddy bear just a one-off…
 or is this what AI kids’ toys are actually doing behind the scenes?

I ordered three of the leading AI toys you can grab on Amazon — including a demonically possessed La BooBoo-style “Emotional AI Companion” a hyper-stimulating little robot called Miko, and a plush rocket buddy named Grok — and tested them on camera so you don’t have to. The results? Deeply disturbing.

As a mom, I will never be putting one of these AI toys under my Christmas tree. I want my daughter playing with real toys, real books, and real people—not a data-harvesting robot that can be updated overnight with whatever ideology the manufacturer wants to push.

Are you considering one of these for your kids this Christmas? Have you already bought one? I want to hear everything. ⬇️

The TikTok Trend Destroying Marriages - Hating Your Husband | Ep. 65

It has come to my attention that kids literally just can’t read in America anymore — and I wish that were an exaggeration. Today on The Isabel Brown Show, we’re breaking down the shocking reality that less than one-third of 4th graders read at a proficient level… and nearly half can’t even read at a basic level.

How did we get here? Because instead of teaching kids to sound out words with phonics like most of us learned, the education establishment decided that’s now Jim Crow–era racism. So welcome to “balanced literacy”: where kids are told not to sound things out, and are instead encouraged to guess words from pictures and context clues. “Look at the butterfly picture, guess that the covered word is ‘butterfly,’ and boom — you’re reading!” Insane.

To talk solutions (not just complaints), I’m joined by Niels Hoven, founder and CEO of Mentava, a phonics-based early literacy program helping kids as young as two read at a second-grade level in months — while the “experts” with PhDs insist results shouldn’t be the primary drive of education. Yes, really.

In today’s episode we dive into:

• The terrifying truth about American literacy in 2025 and what’s really happening in your kids’ classrooms

• Why phonics worked for generations (Bob Books, anyone?) and why it’s suddenly being smeared as “white standard English”

• The madness of “picture power” and “balanced literacy” — and why guessing from pictures is not reading

• How schools have shifted from education to equalization, killing gifted and honors programs and holding everyone back

• How Mentava is helping kids teach themselves to read — and why you don’t need a PhD to educate your own children

• Why so many parents are turning to homeschooling and alternative education after realizing the system is failing on purpose

If you’ve ever thought that you’re “too stupid” to teach your own kids, or been told that questioning the system makes you dangerous, this episode will be a massive encouragement. Parents are not stupid. You are absolutely capable of taking back ownership of your children’s education — and there are tools to help you do it.

Drop your favorite homeschool curriculums, early reading resources, and phonics recommendations in the comments — I’m building out ideas for my own daughter and for future episodes, and I want to hear your experience.

Reading is Racist Now, Apparently - American Kids Literally Can’t Read Anymore | Ep. 64

Today’s episode of The Isabel Brown Show is coming to you straight from Reagan National Airport, where I joined Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy, Health Secretary Bobby Kennedy Jr., and Dr. Paul Saladino to launch a powerful new initiative to Make Travel Family Friendly Again.

As a breastfeeding mom who’s in 3–4 airports a week, I’ve seen firsthand how awful most “nursing rooms” really are — broken outlets, dirty floors, no sinks, doors that don’t lock, or no space at all. This project is changing that.

In today’s episode, you’ll see:

    ●  The beautiful, clean nursing room at DCA that should be the standard nationwide  

    ●  How the Trump administration is freeing up $1 billion for airports to improve family spaces  

    ●  Why breastfeeding is irreplaceable for babies’ health — and how policy can actually support moms  

    ●  Plans for play areas, pull-up bars, and healthier food options like Farmer’s Fridge in terminals  

    ●  A behind-the-scenes look at our press conference, plus some fun moments with baby Isla stealing the show  

If you’re a young parent, a frequent flyer, or just someone who cares about reviving the American family, this episode will give you so much hope for where we’re headed.

A Day at the Airport with RFK and Duffy - What You Didn’t See on TV | Ep. 63

Today on The Isabel Brown Show, I’m breaking down my heated CNN appearance in New York — where the panel made it abundantly clear that “conversation” was never the goal. Instead, I experienced firsthand the toxic empathy, gaslighting, and dangerous rhetoric now normalized across the political left.

From reality-TV-star-turned-podcaster Jennifer Welch calling for conservatives to be “kicked to the curb” (and worse), to media figures justifying drug trafficking while accusing others of racism, to the open celebration of political violence since Charlie Kirk’s assassination — the left’s rhetoric is growing more and more disturbing with each passing day.

In this episode, I walk through:

• What actually happened on CNN and why the panel panicked over simple facts
 
• The rise of liberal podcasters openly calling for the death of conservatives
 
• The dangerous escalation of rhetoric fueled by pride, hatred, and lies
 
• Why Christians must reject this narrative and return to truth, humility, and prayer
 
• How Advent — and Mary as the model of surrender — points the way forward

If you’re overwhelmed by the tension in our culture, you’re not alone. But the only solution is Jesus Christ. Less of us. More of Him. Always.

CNN Cut Me Off for Telling the Truth — Full Breakdown | Ep. 62

Today’s episode of The Isabel Brown Show is one of the most special we’ve ever shared. I’m sitting down with my grandparents—affectionately known as Meemaw and Papa—as they celebrate an incredible milestone: 70 years of marriage!

From meeting as teenagers and falling in love in small-town Oklahoma, to raising five kids, navigating financial hardship, surviving life-threatening illness, hearing God’s voice, rebuilding their lives multiple times, and now laughing their way through their 80s & 90s—they open up about everything.

Together, they share a message of encouragement that every young couple today needs to hear: 

 • How to stay committed when marriage gets hard

 • Why getting married young isn’t something to fear

 • Why faith and prayer were the foundation that saved their marriage

 • What love looks like in every season—from newlywed sparks to assisted-living jokes

 • Their advice for young people who are considering marriage and family

Today’s episode is full of joy, wisdom, real talk, and genuine family love. Grab a tissue… and maybe take notes. These two lived the love story so many of us hope to have someday.

A huge thank you to my Meemaw and Papa for offering to film this episode with us, and please pray for them in their 7th decade of marriage together!

What 70 Years of Marriage Really Teaches You: Lessons From My Grandparents | Ep. 61

The American church has a problem — and it’s getting way too off the rails, way too fast. Today on The Isabel Brown Show, we dive into how pastors and priests across denominations are turning church into a reflection of the world instead of a reflection of Christ. From a Methodist pastor “transitioning” in the pulpit and drag queen pledges in church, to female “Catholic” priests rewriting doctrine on TikTok, we break down why all of this isn’t compassion… it’s evil.

Just look at these wild viral clips of pastors bringing kids to drag shows “for Jesus,” reciting the “Sparkle Creed,” changing the words of the Our Father because the word “evil” is too mean, and proudly flying Pride flags while twisting Scripture to defend abortion, gender ideology, and open borders. Insane.  I also explain why the Church has never ordained women as priests, what in persona Christi actually means, and how replacing God with the god of self–“my needs, my identity, my truth”--is dragging entire congregations into darkness.

If you’re watching your church get more secular, more woke, and more obsessed with “affirmation” than with holiness, this episode is for you. We talk real spiritual warfare, what James 3:1 warns about teachers, and why the answer isn’t to make church more like culture, but to let Jesus transform us to be more like Him. Let’s talk about saving the church before it’s too late.

The American Church Has A Problem: The Woke Clergy Is Losing the Plot | Ep. 60

Franklin the Turtle has officially entered his BASED era, and the Left can’t handle it. In today’s episode of The Isabel Brown Show, we break down how one Franklin children’s story meme posted by Secretary of War Pete Hegseth set Congress, the media, and even the Canadian publisher of Franklin into a full-blown meltdown, all while they ignore 100,000 American drug deaths and the very real evil threat of transnational crime.

Join me in reacting to the funniest and most unhinged Franklin memes, from Franklin targeting narco terrorists to guarding women’s locker rooms, joining ICE, defending the library from drag queen story hour, and even going full trad Catholic. But underneath the meme hilarity is a serious question: why are our so-called “leaders” more outraged by a cartoon turtle with an RPG than by the actual problems facing Americans, including migrant crime, narco terrorism, and the horrific kidnaping and rape of young girls by repeat violent offenders in places like Minnesota?

We’re walking through what’s actually happening, why the establishment is suddenly outraged by “violent” memes, how the media is running interference, and what it really means to be “misaligned with American values” in 2025.

Drop your favorite Franklin meme in the comments and let’s talk about what D.C. should be angry about.
