US Debt Clock
U.S. National Debt Clock : Real Time
Segment 1 - The Evangelical Issue
A look at the realignment of the
Evangelicals and the way they influence, sabotage, and control the GOP through messaging and infrastructure. We also discuss the dangers of political prophets.
Segment 2 - Drowning In Debt: 35T
We have reached 35 Trillion in debt and we thought we should celebrate the milestone with a segment.
This is an intro to my police reform podcast that never came to full fruition. This piece was recorded 2-4-2021, a time when police reform was the topic of the day. At the time I was planning to do a podcast on police reform highlighting Sandra Bland, Daniel Shaver, Tamir Rice, and Breonna Taylor's cases. I finished the Bland segment (published as a primer) but never got the full piece done. I plan to use X spaces to have the interactions needed to round out the conversation and get that piece done. I decided to post this as it was interesting to reflect on where I and others were at the time.
Description: An introspective look at collective wokeness, the various layers of woke, and the sleepwalking woke. Juxtaposing woke against some core realities of team politics, basic humanity, Trigger topics, conspiracies, media, and....
Some random babbling about unity and overcoming.
Another Vault Edition-2021.
This was published in February 2021 and then removed for unknown reasons. It's a pretty reasonable take on the topics addressed. Perhaps it was a glitch?
A reminder that all kids are by law protected against racism and bias in education. All kids. Protect the kids!
This is a show that didn't get published. Recorded March 25th in 2021 after the controversial "Woke on Coke" podcast we did. Mainly focuses on equality in education. Not sure why we didn't polish this up and publish it. But here it is, raw and unedited.
I found this while digging through a bunch of draft sessions that never made it to publishing.
This session was recorded June 3, 2021. I free thought ramble on about a lot of my usual topics and examine the path forward for the podcast at that time. I think I see why we decided not to drop this one. Probably for the few instances where I lose the flow and the lack of an outline and topic format.
Let me know what you think.
Trump, surviving the uni-party crime Cabal. A shot that hit at the heart of all Americans freedom and liberty.
Made shortly after Trump was shot. Posted to Twitter and is being added now because of its relevance to current topics.
