Okay, I don't know how I missed this, but exactly one month ago, on September 8th, 2026, Frank Cherik published a book appropriately entitled The War on Reality. On that, we can agree there is a war on reality.

Why people recommend it

The War on Reality by Dr. Frank Turek and Phoenix Hayes is a cultural and theological work that examines modern truth claims and offers guidance on recovering traditional values in a skeptical society. Appearing on The Rubin Report, host Dave Rubin welcomed Dr. Frank Turek as a Christian apologist and mentor to the late Charlie Kirk to discuss the newly released book. Megyn Kelly also hosted Turek on The Megyn Kelly Show, where she strongly encouraged all her listeners to purchase the book and explore any future writings by Turek to enhance their personal wellness and lives. During her interview, Kelly noted that the author wrote candidly about the unique experience of mentoring someone who possessed exceptional intelligence, and she praised the volume as a timely guide for recovering truth in a world that celebrates falsehoods. In contrast, Candace Owens offered a critique on her show regarding the book's title and timing, noting the exact date of its publication while agreeing with the general premise that a contemporary battle over truth is underway. Despite differing viewpoints on commentary surrounding the release, the book generated substantial discussion across multiple prominent media platforms regarding contemporary ideology, mentorship, and the defense of objective truth in public discourse.

“Um she wrote the forward for this book, but you don't need to buy the book to read the forward. Just go to Amazon and look under editorial comments, and you'll see her entire two-page forward. I I cried when I read this. Because Well, you'll see. Just Just go there and read. It's two and a half pages.”
