 As a freethinker, are you looking through binoculars out at the world in the safety of a foxhole? Get fuel for your soul and intellectual ammunition by listening to The Secular Foxhole podcast, in order to fight for the separation of religion and state. Blair chose this name (The Secular Foxhole) to dispute the myth that there are no atheists in foxholes, but also as a place to share ideas and defend Free Speech. The co-hosts both advocate the separation of Church and State, but also Economics and State. In short, Liberalism, Individualism, and Capitalism. This podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: OP3 - https://op3.dev/privacyCopyright 2025 Blair Schofield and Martin Lindeskog Ciencia Ciencias Sociales Espiritualidad Filosofía
