Brewed Awakening

Carol Marks & The Gent

Every Sunday morning, Carol and The Gent kick back in bed with coffee in hand and the week’s hottest headlines on their minds.

From sharp debates to playful banter (and maybe a little marital side-eye), they prove that the best conversations happen before you even get out of bed.

2025/04/20

"He is risen!" These powerful words launch us into a deeply reflective Easter conversation about when the true meaning of resurrection first pierced our hearts. While chocolate bunnies and colorful eggs dominate childhood memories, Carol and Carrie explore that pivotal moment when Easter's profound significance finally clicks—whether as children, teenagers, or even decades into adulthood.

2025/04/13

Golf's most prestigious tournament reveals something extraordinary about human behavior. At Augusta National, where the Masters unfolds each spring, strange rules create a pocket universe of civility that feels increasingly rare in modern life. Imagine placing your chair beside a green at dawn, wandering the course for hours, and returning to find everything exactly as you left it—untouched by thousands of passing strangers.

2025/03/23

The cheerful customer service experience seems to be vanishing before our eyes, but is this a new phenomenon or simply something we're noticing more as we age? Our conversation dives into this curious social shift that many have observed but few have articulated – the apparent unhappiness or disengagement of service workers across various industries.

Pour yourself a cup of coffee and join us for a morning meditation on the state of our nation and its institutions. As we sip our delicious French-Brazilian blend, we tackle one of the most frustrating aspects of modern governance: the ability of judges in obscure jurisdictions to obstruct presidential authority through injunctions and lawsuits.
