Episode 2166: The Richie Allen Show Tuesday December 23rd 2025

Richie is joined by John Waters. John is a highly respected Irish writer and broadcaster. Richie originally invited John on to reflect on the biggest news stories of 2025. However, John started the conversation by sharing a wonderful story about Nina Monique, his first grand-daughter born earlier this year. John told Richie that when holding little Nina Monique, he has an overwhelming feeling that she is an "old soul" and that she is communicating with him energetically. What followed is a fascinating conversation about the search for meaning and grappling with the most important question of all, why? John and Richie discuss the scientific and religious approaches to this ultimate question and field some excellent questions and talking points from the audience. Do not miss this show.
