Wyatt Matters

This week’s episode opens with the internet’s favorite pastime: hating on Travis Kelce. The crew breaks down why America’s “most hated” NFL player is catching heat... not for touchdowns, but for allegedly never arguing in his relationship. Then things escalate quickly when a Florida man fires shots in a bar fight over… how many eggs a chicken can lay. Yes, really. Welcome to humanity.

But Host Steve Wyatt takes the madness somewhere meaningful. Through hilarious personal confessionals—keys lost in pockets, snarky emails, explosive diarrhea mid-sermon—the team unpacks why we overreact to small things and how unresolved wounds fuel big explosions.

Then Steve delivers a powerful teaching on singing in the storm: Paul praising God in prison, a lone musician on Bourbon Street after Katrina, and the biblical call to choose joy even when life collapses around you. If you’re struggling, overwhelmed, or just tired of losing your song, this episode will give you the reset you need.

This week opens with one of the wildest Hot Takes we’ve ever covered, a Canadian rapper who tried filming a music video while wing-walking on a plane and paid the ultimate price. That launches the crew into a hilarious but honest conversation about confidence outrunning competence, instant regrets, childhood humiliations, and the dumb choices we all make.

Then the show shifts to NFL fan outrage after Cam Skattebo dared to smile, stand up, and enjoy life while recovering from a brutal ankle injury. His response, “I’m having a good time while dealing with a tough time,” becomes the heartbeat of this episode.

Host Steve Wyatt unpacks what the Apostle Paul called “sorrowful yet always rejoicing” and explains why biblical joy is not the absence of pain but the presence of Jesus in the storm. From Peter walking on water to a miraculous phone-booth story that proves God knows exactly where you are, this episode calls you to trust the One who sees you, rescues you, and never shows up late.

The episode starts light... a dad misreads a prank, body-checks the wrong “suspect,” and ends up the punchline of a viral TikTok. But things turn serious fast as the team discusses a Nigerian man rescued from suicide, then attacked by the very crowd that saved him.

Host Steve Wyatt moves from mob mentality to the Lord’s mentality, walking listeners through Moses’ metaphor of the eagle... how God stirs, strips, flips, watches, prays, and ultimately rescues. If you’ve ever wondered why God lets storms hit, why He removes comfort, or why your life suddenly feels upside-down, Steve explains how those very storms grow your wings.

It’s one of the most personal, hope-filled episodes yet—perfect for anyone walking through fear, loss, doubt, or uncertainty.

It starts with smoke grenades, drone shows, and one gender reveal gone way too far. Then the crew dives into Charlie Sheen’s wild story, his rise, fall, and shocking turn toward faith. Host Steve Wyatt and the team use humor, honesty, and scripture to remind us that no one is beyond God’s reach.

From Harry Caray’s “Holy Cow” to Paul’s claim he was “the worst of sinners,” this episode comes full circle. The message: you can’t earn salvation, and you don’t have to. God’s arm is never too short—even for Charlie Sheen, even for you.

This week’s “Leftover Laughs” kick off with a smart toilet that tracks your… well, everything, Scandinavian countries with no word for “please,” and a truckload of escaped monkeys that turned the highway into a bad sci-fi movie. But when the laughs fade, Host Steve Wyatt shifts to something deeper... what happens when it feels like the power’s gone out in your life.

Drawing from Elisha’s story and real conversations about addiction, surrender, and the Holy Spirit, Steve and longtime friend John Samples explore the difference between numbing yourself and truly being filled with power. The message: you don’t need to fake strength. Real power starts when you stop pretending and let God’s Spirit fill the space.

This week’s show kicks off with fall’s loudest tradition— pumpkin spice everything. From $7 lattes to pumpkin-scented cat litter and even “dude wipes,” the team laughs through the chaos of a culture obsessed with flavor fads and crowd trends.

Then host Steve Wyatt flips the focus to a story that defies the crowd’s voice— Brock Purdy, the last pick in the NFL draft turned Super Bowl quarterback. Through his story, Steve unpacks how God’s call always outweighs human opinion. The message builds to a powerful reminder: the crowd looks at your failures, but God looks at your heart.

No matter what the world... or even your own doubts... say about you, what the crowd says isn’t always so.

From alligator joyrides to “Hellmann’s Weddings,” the crew wraps Season One with laughter and lunacy—Florida-style. But as the laughs fade, Pastor Steve Wyatt delivers a powerful challenge drawn from King Solomon’s words: stop hoarding your crumbs and start casting them.

Whether it’s launching a dream, taking a leap of faith, or simply stepping out of comfort, this episode dares you to live fully. Safe may feel secure—but it’s rarely significant. The takeaway: life isn’t about crumb hunting. It’s about trusting God enough to throw your crumbs into the water and watch what He brings back.

The crew wakes up to the weirdest invention yet—a hotel alarm clock that releases the scent of bacon and coffee instead of noise. From there, they dive into real-life “force multipliers,” moments that make good go viral: Starbucks drive-thru kindness chains, GoFundMe miracles, and Erica Kirk’s powerful act of public forgiveness that inspired thousands to do the same.

Host Steve Wyatt connects the dots between everyday kindness and God’s call to live justly, love mercy, and walk humbly. His message: stop outrunning your pain. God’s goodness is already chasing you down.

This week opens with some laughs.. from a wedding guest who secretly ordered pizza during the reception to yet another viral “rapture date” that didn’t quite pan out. The crew unpacks why Christians keep falling for wild predictions and what it really means to live ready for Jesus’ return without losing your mind... or your pizza money.

Then host Steve Wyatt turns the focus inward with a raw, personal story of loss, suffering, and faith. Joined by lifelong friend Bruce Templeton, the two discuss comparison, contentment, and how God’s grace meets us in the middle of pain.

Charlie Kirk called the church a life raft in a sinking culture. In this episode, Steve Wyatt and the team dig into why—even with flaws, failures, and frustrations—the local church is still God’s chosen plan for hope and healing.

From stories of childhood church chaos to real-life questions about hypocrisy and disappointment, the team unpacks why walking away from church isn’t the answer. When tragedy strikes and life feels unsteady, the truth is clear: you can’t love Jesus without also loving His church.

This week, the Wyatt Matters team sets aside the usual Hot Takes to reflect on what they call the most powerful five hours of television they’ve ever seen: the memorial service for Charlie Kirk. From politicians boldly proclaiming the gospel, to reconciliation between public rivals, to Erica Kirk’s stunning words of forgiveness—“Father forgive them”—the service became a showcase of hope, unity, and faith.

Host Steve Wyatt and the team share their personal reactions, stories of boldness, and reminders that the church still matters. From surrender to forgiveness to revival, the call is simple: don’t just watch history happen—be part of what God is doing now.

We’re serving up a listener favorite: when the Ohio Supreme Court ruled “boneless wings” don’t actually need to be boneless, and an “all-you-can-eat buffet” ran out of food. The Hot Takes fly, but the meaning is deeper — words matter.

Host Steve Wyatt reminds us that if human words carry weight, how much more do God’s? Whether life feels full or empty, steady or shaken, His Word is unshakable, and His promises will not fail.

We kick off with college football mascots and the unlikely star of Bowling Green State—Pudge the cat. Then it’s a Florida man in Batman pajamas who stopped a thief, proving sometimes your wardrobe really does change your behavior. From there, the crew tackles “Weird-for-Jesus” Christians and why acting strange isn’t proof of faith.

Host Steve Wyatt challenges us to stop copying other Christians or blaming God when life gets hard. Instead, Scripture calls us to work out our own salvation—no comparing, no complaining, just following the unique path God has for us. The result? You’ll shine like stars in a dark world.

We start with a new dating trend called Shrekking—lowering your standards in hopes of better treatment. Then it’s the Cracker Barrel rebrand that sparked a storm of outrage online. Both raise the same question: why do we chase image, status, and pride when they rarely deliver what we want?

Pastor Steve Wyatt points us to a different way: the downward path. Following Jesus means emptying ourselves, serving others, and humbling our pride—because the way up in God’s kingdom always starts by going down. From Philippians 2 to real-world stories of leadership and humility, this episode is a call to let go of ego and let God lift you up.

Only in Denmark: a zoo invites families to donate their pets to feed the lions. Only in politics: Trump jokes that peace in Ukraine might secure his spot in heaven. Both stories expose how culture tries to make sense of life, death, and justice on its own terms.

Host Steve Wyatt shows why that never works — and why the Bible’s story still does. From Genesis to Jesus to us, Scripture is the one true narrative that grounds our chaos, answers our questions, and gives our lives purpose. The takeaway: don’t loosen your grip. Hold fast to God’s Word.

We start with a not-so-subtle wardrobe choice on a Carnival cruise—an upside-down pineapple shirt that accidentally sent the wrong signal. Then we dive into the strange new fad of adults using pacifiers to “cope” with stress. From purple rocks to Disney adults, the crew laughs through it all, but also asks: Why are we so quick to grab for shallow comforts?

From there, host Steve Wyatt unpacks what it really means to hold fast to God. Through the Shema and the wisdom of Proverbs, he calls us to plant our roots deep in the Lord instead of chasing cultural band-aids. The message rings true: when life shakes, grip the One who never moves.

This week starts with a jaw-dropping stat — Americans spend 49 hours a year scrolling their phones in the bathroom. From “TikTok Tush” to toilet-as-a-desk confessions, nothing is sacred. Then we tackle the internet firestorm over Sydney Sweeney’s American Eagle ad and the wild accusations it sparked about race, sexuality, and politics.

Host Steve Wyatt flips the script, showing why judgment is never our job. He unpacks why God made you, how to live a “worthy” life, and the Spirit’s role in convicting us of sin, righteousness, and judgment. It’s a direct call to self-reflection and grace — with one clear message: love well, live worthy, and let Jesus do the judging.

This week’s show opens with a look back at July—a month that claimed some big cultural names, from Chuck Mangione to John MacArthur. Then we talk about the viral Coldplay concert video where two very married people got caught on the kiss cam with…not their spouses. The internet called it entertaining. Steve calls it something else: a warning.

Then host Steve Wyatt gets personal. He shares about his darkest failure, the “song” others still sing about him, and the young friend now going through the same thing. His message? Failure doesn’t mean final. If God still used Noah, Moses, and David—He’s not done with you either.

We open with people trying to board planes using their Costco cards as ID—yes, seriously. Then, we unpack the viral post of a CEO publicly shaming her Navy officer husband for his “lack of accomplishments” and why the internet (and the Bible) called her out.

Finally, host Steve Wyatt takes us into one of the rawest realities of faith: forgiveness. Steve reveals how resentment festers when we “save stamps” instead of letting go and how Jesus sketched out a better way for us to follow.
