About Hey! It's The Luskos
Hey! It's The Luskos is a Christian conversation show built around warmth, interruption, and meaning made in real time. It rarely feels formally arranged. A guest may arrive to talk about calling, generosity, dating, parenting, church care, or a book, but the first doorway is often something smaller and more human. Hats. Cold plunges. Kids. Disney plans. Filipino food. Driving too slowly with a newborn in the car. Levi and Jenny Lusko use that looseness as part of the appeal, letting casual banter soften the room before the conversation turns more direct. Recent episodes lean heavily on guest testimony. Abbey and Gabe describe the financial strain and faith involved in saying yes to music and ministry. Jimmy Darts connects viral generosity with a radical experience of healing and commitment to Jesus. Tim Tebow talks about fatherhood and his books with the easy familiarity of a returning friend. Ed Newton reflects on family, pain, deaf parents, closed captioning, and the tenderness that shaped him. Kait and JJ Tomlin bring dating advice into a blunt conversation about attraction, character, faith, and modern expectations. Preston Sprinkle’s episode signals more sensitive ground around sexuality and Scripture. Dino Rizzo’s visit centers on church, care, capacity, and encouragement. Through all of it, the show keeps a pastoral instinct close to the surface. It likes laughter, but not distance. It likes stories, but usually wants a takeaway about obedience, relationships, generosity, or spiritual formation. The result is intimate and brisk: a faith-forward hangout where guests are given space to tell meaningful stories while the Luskos keep the conversation affectionate, curious, and grounded in Christian community life.
Made for: Suited to Christian listeners who enjoy conversational interviews about marriage, ministry, parenting, calling, generosity, and spiritual growth. It especially fits people who like pastoral reflection delivered through stories rather than formal teaching.
What sets it apart: The show’s strength is its quick shift from playful family-table energy to sincere testimony and practical faith. It lets jokes, pain, dating advice, ministry talk, and reverence share the same room.
In their own words
Sit down with pastors and authors Levi and Jennie Lusko for an unfiltered look at the madness of the Lusko’s life, marriage, ministry, faith, grief, and growth that goes on behind the scenes. (It may or may not include: product reviews, coffee recommendations, Disney hacks and all the things that make life wonderful) Hosted by Pastors of Fresh Life Church, and authors of best selling book Through The Eyes of a Lion, I Declare War, Swipe Right and The Fight to Flourish.
