Apparently God is nonbinary. Or maybe that wasn't quite what he meant. Depends on which interview you're watching.

Welcome back to Seasoned & Unfiltered, where Steveo has a few questions for Texas Democrat James Talarico—and he's brought the receipts.

In 2021, Talarico made headlines for saying God is nonbinary and arguing that modern science recognizes more than two biological sexes. Now, as he faces Republican Ken Paxton in the Texas Senate race, he's acknowledging that some of his earlier statements missed the mark.

So what changed? His beliefs? His understanding? Or just the audience he's trying to win over?

Steveo digs into Talarico's original statements, his more recent explanations, and the intersection of Christianity, transgender issues, school sports, and political messaging.

But this isn't just about a few controversial sound bites.

We also examine Talarico's actual record in the Texas Legislature, including education funding, childcare, prescription drug costs, and juvenile justice. And yes, Ken Paxton's controversies deserve scrutiny too.

Because here's a novel idea: Maybe we should judge politicians by what they've said, what they've done, and what they're promising now.

Imagine that.

Whether you're Republican, Democrat, independent, or just tired of politicians explaining why their own words apparently don't mean what they sounded like, this conversation is for you.

Seasoned by experience. Served unfiltered.

Thumbnail headline: GOD IS WHAT NOW?!

I would depict a large, illustrated Texas Capitol with a church stained-glass window behind it, a dramatic quotation mark surrounding the phrase “GOD IS NONBINARY?”, and a smaller stamped line reading “HE SAID WHAT HE SAID.” Keep the same cream, burgundy, navy, and distressed editorial illustration style as your other S&U thumbnails.
