Today's guest is Derek, a friend from Twitter who I've thoroughly enjoyed getting to know and also someone who is working a solid program. Derek's sponsorship is among some of the "old school" methods that seems abrasive to the untrained observer, but it's exactly the type that saved an addict like myself and it worked wonders for him as well. Check it out and be sure to follow Subby on the Bird App: @Subby_22 Thanks for tuning in and we will see y'all next week!

This week I am joined by my buddy Thom, co-host of the Winner Gets Nothing podcast and host of Trash Talks, to talk about crypto. This episode is a break from the usual types of conversations that I have and we just kind of broadly talked about the crypto market, which coins to look out for, and somehow in the process we ended up talking about NFTs and the Sopranos. All in all, this was a fun chat and I found it to be pretty informative! Be sure and check out Thom's podcast on Spotify (Winner Ge...

I had the honor of sitting down with my good friend KRS Jac and talking about his testimony. Jac is one of those people who I thoroughly enjoy getting to spend time talking to and getting to hear his story was something I got a lot out of. If you don't have people in your life who elevate you...FIND THEM! I've been blessed to find my people and I'm grateful for friendships like I've found with KRS. If you're looking for a story of grace and redemption, look no further than this episode! Be...

I had the absolute honor of sitting down with Britt, co-host of the FAB Show and someone who has overcome some serious obstacles in their life, to discuss her journey through food addiction and binge eating. When we talk about addiction, so often do we focus on the substance utilized and not enough attention is given to the underlying problems that led us to those behaviors. Britt does a spectacular job of pointing this out as well as being gut-level honest about her struggles and accomplishment...

These are some wild times we are in. A lot of unrest surrounding politics, social justice, medical decisions, and everything in between.

A hope that all of us have is that you find some strength and hope just knowing there's others out there doing what they gotta do to stay strong and step u...

I had the pleasure of sitting back down with Ash to mull over a whole litany of topics. We briefly touched on some pints from his last appearance (Episode 57) and covered some new ground. At the end he lays some more of his writing on us and I'm telling y'all this is going to be a kickass book the man is writing.

I am joined by the wonderful Rachel from Dance Safe, a non-profit community focused organization that is doing PHENOMANAL work in the club and night life community. I've known about this organization since I was a young knucklehead out there running wild and I was delighted to hear that not only are they still around, but they're doing way more to help the community! Check them out and pitch in if you're able to, also sign up to be a volunteer if you're able to do so. You know we are all about m...

Dan has a keen ability to organize and present libertarian ideas in a way that the majority of people find palpable. He gives us a breakdown on his current gubernatorial campaign in Texas and how he's going about organizing it. These are some...

This is one of the more in depth interviews I've done that really lays bare exactly how far gone US interventionism is especially in terms of foreign drug policy. My guest, author Brian Saady, is extremely nuanced in his discussions pertaining to the Iran Contra affair, The School of the Americas (WHINSEC), the current breakdown on Haiti, and many other topics. This interview has a ton of information and is well worth the listen. Absolutely follow Brian and his tremendous work at www.BrianSaady....

A few weeks back I had someone reach out to me after they had listened to the episode with Spike and said they were working on a book that mirrored my thoughts on the very real 12 steps to libertarian pipeline. Ash quickly became someone I was bound and determined to get on the podcast to share not only his experience, strength, and hope, but also an excerpt or two from what he is working on. This was a REALLY damn good interview, Ash has an awesome story and a flair for writing. I hope yall enj...

I had the honor and privilege of sitting down with a spectacular voice in the liberty movement, Marth Bueno. Martha is spearheading efforts to reach out to the Hispanic community with Libertarios Hispanos on LPTV, she is also running for County Commissioner in Miami-Dade and in doing so has been an illuminating voice on the perils of continuing the disastrous war on drugs. This was a phenomenal interview and great conversation that covers a multitude of topics from abysmal immigration policy to ...

I'm joined today by my friend RT so he can tell us about his sobriety as well as his experiences in the public education system. RT makes a compelling case for libertarians to get involved in public education while providing a story of hope.

I had the privilege and honor of sitting down with the person that helped get the Clean Libertarian project off the ground. John is the host of Finding Freedom (formerly Felony Friday) and he has done a remarkable job at highlighting stories of hope and courage from those who have been churned through the criminal justice system. We had a fantastic conversation about how he got started on his journey, what he's learned, and where he hopes to see this journey lead to someday. Be sure and follow h...

I had the honor of sitting down with Drafty and hearing the story of his downfall and his recovery. There's some seriously profound points that Draft brings up in regards to what it takes to truly get this deal and to get it well. When we get sober, it's up to US to make this new life work for us and that's exactly what we cover in this episode. Absolutely listen, share it around, and follow drafty on Twitter: @DraftyBastard

Today's guest is a shining example of what happens when an addict of the hopeless variety grabs a hold of recovery and truly turns their life around. Not only is Christopher someone who managed to get and stay clean, but he has also taken that experience and used it as fuel for several initiatives in his local community not the least of which was to get local drug policy changed so addicts are sent to treatment rather than to prison. This was a fantastic conversation about learning to live abund...

Today I'm joined by Hana and Duckie from SHOTS (Stop Harm On Tulsa Streets), a non-profit needle exchange that has given out more than 5k doses of Narcan and countless clean needles to addicts that haven't found a way out yet. The beneficial work they are doing is no doubt saving lives and providing using addicts with the opportunity of another tomorrow through harm reduction. I wanted to have them on to highlight both the wonderful things their organization is doing as well as how someone could...

This was a REALLY great interview with the 2020 LP Vice Presidential candidate, Spike Cohen. I'd heard that Spike was someone in recovery but only ever heard him briefly mention his story before and really wanted to delve into it. Not only did we get to touch on some of the finer points of what brought him into living a clean lifestyle but we broke down some of the lessons learned along the way. All in all this is yet another fantastic story of hope that declares there is abundant life after add...

My better half joins me once again to have a small debate on a few of her apprehensions regarding legalizing drugs and we just kind of riffed from there. There's something special about finding someone who puts up with your insanity, it's even more special when they contribute to it! We cover banning menthols, vaccine passports, true crime murder podcasts, and a few other things. Enjoy! Find her on social media: Twitter - @hilayglynxo TikTok - @drphilary

Ricky came across my radar last year when he was running against incumbent Tom Cotton for Arkansas Senate. There's something about the way he is able to spread the message of liberty while also having been involved in ministry that has earned my respect. We talked about everything from ending the wars of aggression to the abysmal state that the criminal justice system is currently in. Check it out and be sure to follow him on social media and donate to his campaign for Governor! Twitter: @RickDH...

I had the honor of sitting down with the future LP National chair, Angela McArdle, to talk about the lackluster messaging that has been coming out of the national party as well as the gross overstepping the state and federal governments have done in the wake of C*vid. It's a breath of fresh air when you run across someone who is just as fed up with the way things are as you and they're actually putting in the work to do something about it. Be sure and follow along with Angela's campaign trail an...

Too often do we see people who are working jobs they loathe and pursuing their passions between time clock punches. My guest today has made it his goal to find an avenue for those in the liberty movement to be able to find employment doing what they love: fighting for liberty! Conner lays out the tremendous work he and others have done with their project, Work for Liberty, which is a nationwide network of individuals helping each other find gainful employment in the liberty sphere. He's an autho...

I've had on plenty of people (including myself) who have found recovery through the 12 step programs. I've also had several on who have found it through other means and I am always excited when I get to hear someone else's perspective on addiction that I've not yet run across...my guest to day is no exception to that. Zach Rhoads is co-author of the book "Outgrowing Addiction" and is a coach with the Life Process Program, an online based recovery program that proclaims itself to be an "alternati...

Really amped up about this interview! I ran across Wilson on Reddit when I stumbled across his creation, r/NarcoStudios701. I've long since wanted to cover exactly what is happening with the cartels in Mexico but the problem is most of the info I ran across was in spanish and I couldn't quite translate much of it. Wilson has made a hobby out of translating this stuff into english and keeping people informed through his subreddit and YouTube channel. Be sure and listen and follow him on the follo...

Aaron joins me again to discuss guns, the inherent scam that is the NRA, Biden's failing state of consciousness, and some other stuff we ramble about. Aaron and I go way back so when we link up to do an episode we naturally slip into our normal conversations and honestly that's for the best because there's some solid information in there. On top of the conversation Aaron talks about his new substack and hopeful podcast he will be starting up soon which will be an extremely vital source of all th...
