Hosts Jason Bassler and Matt Agorist welcomed back grassroots activist, author, and cultural builder Maj Toure for his sixth appearance on the Free Thought Project podcast. Maj is the founder of Black Guns Matter, the Solutionary Center in Philadelphia, and the online education platform Solutionary University. For over a decade, he has been an uncompromising defender of self-ownership, urban firearm rights education, and civic accountability. Maj’s work focuses heavily on teaching practical conflict resolution, de-escalation, and helping peaceful individuals break free from the mental and economic traps designed by the state.
The conversation dives deep into the shifting political landscape, analyzing the hyper-partisan gridlock of modern politics and the deep-seated cognitive dissonance that keeps voters trapped in establishment cults. The discussion unpacks the landmark unanimous Supreme Court ruling in United States v. Hemani—which declared that the federal government cannot strip individuals of their Second Amendment rights solely over cannabis use—and exposes the hypocrisy of an administration that aggressively pursued the case while masquerading behind a pro-2A facade. Crucially, the dialogue details a powerful wave of organic, multi-regional resistance against the encroaching surveillance state, highlighting decentralized campaigns like "Operation Flock Out" and "Knock the Flock" as citizens actively push back against FLOCK license plate cameras, Palantir data grids, and centralized tracking infrastructure.
The dialogue then pivots to the cultural dynamics of the digital age, examining how toxic online rage-baiting from political provocateurs is engineered to trigger emotional physical retaliation, ultimately weaponizing narrative control to drive disenfranchised youth straight toward authoritarian socialism. The conversation also highlights the severe state overreach surrounding the case of Dexter Taylor, a nonviolent man sentenced to a decade in a maximum-security prison for manufacturing 3D-printed firearms in his own home.
Ending on a powerful "White Pill" note, the episode highlights the necessity of shifting human energy away from systemic distractions and focusing entirely on personal development and local resilience. The final portion of the show underscores the vital role of holistic, decentralizing tools like Solutionary University—including foundational courses on family gun safety, civics, understanding imminent threats, and rights education—to build stronger, self-reliant individuals. The episode concludes with an empowering call to action: to reject state-sponsored demoralization, embrace analog presence, improve physical health, and use local body politics to actively secure liberty as an unalienable birthright.

Matt Agorist and Don Via, Jr. sat down with the relentless Catherine Austin Fitts for an incredibly vital status report on the global fight for financial freedom. A former Wall Street powerhouse and former Assistant Secretary of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) under the Bush Senior administration, Catherine is the publisher of The Solari Report and one of the liberty movement’s most brilliant economic minds. After famously looking inside the belly of the beast and blowing the whistle on the missing trillions of dollars leaking out of the federal budget decades ago, she has dedicated her life to exposing state overreach and the encroaching digital panopticon. Fresh off a massive interview with Tucker Carlson and a major speaking appearance at the John Birch Society Conference in Salt Lake City, Catherine joins the show in the midst of a grueling multi-city tour to break down how everyday people can bypass the uni-party trap and construct an unbroken, parallel world.
The core of the discussion dismantles the insidious architecture of the "Digital Control Grid" and the mechanism of what Catherine defines as the "automatic third lock". The conversation exposes how recent political theater—such as a temporary ban on retail Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs)—serves as a massive bait-and-switch, masking a back-door corporate-government hydra built on private stablecoins through legislative frameworks like the GENIUS Act. This programmable ledger system aims to transition traditional bank deposits, stocks, and bonds into a machine-driven surveillance apparatus that can instantly freeze, block, or condition transactions from above the institutional level, entirely bypassing human legal accountability. The dialogue maps out the immense physical scale of this grid, detailing how the United States has become the global hardware hub by housing more data centers than the top 14 countries combined. Crucially, the breakdown reveals how everyday citizens are being manipulated into financing their own digital cages through local taxpayer subsidies and heavily concentrated 401(k) and IRA retirement portfolios that pour billions into tech monopolies. Finally, the geopolitical lens is turned onto the deceptive "multipolar world order" narrative, revealing that central planners across both the BRICS nations and Western alliances remain uniformly loyal to the Bank for International Settlements (BIS) digital ID model, reframing the current global tension as a mere turf war over who secures "middle management" data rights.
Shifting gears entirely to actionable resistance and "The White Pill," the episode maps out a comprehensive tactical manual for individual and community empowerment. The path forward demands an active financial decoupling—urging listeners to defund the surveillance panopticon by auditing their wealth, pulling retirement funds out of Wall Street's concentrated index funds, and shifting capital toward localized, tangible assets. True systemic pushback relies on a dual-layered approach: aggressively utilizing physical cash through localized "Turtling for Cash" campaigns to build community resilience and starve data center resource consumption, while simultaneously adopting decentralized, protocol-level digital privacy networks like Monero or Zano to secure long-distance commerce outside the matrix. Catherine highlights the Coming Clean blueprint—a downloadable guide packed with practical steps to systematically stop feeding energy to the state and start financing your own family. Ultimately, building a free civilization relies on a node-to-node system anchored entirely in real-world human relationships of trust. The show closes with an inspiring spiritual framework drawn from The NeverEnding Story, reminding the audience that the ultimate defense against the technocratic "nothing" is to aggressively protect personal joy, foster community connection, and maintain an unshakeable state of amusement.

The state of New York doesn't lock people in cages to keep the public safe; they do it to violently enforce their monopoly on power. If you are an actual violent criminal, the judicial system will actively look for ways to put you back on the street. But if you are a peaceful software engineer who decides to exercise your inherent right to self-defense by building a piece of metal in your own home, they will raid your house and bury you. This week, we hand about of a different flow for the podcast as TFTP co-founder Jason Bassler sat down with Dexter Taylor to discuss his draconian 10-year prison sentence for the completely victimless act of being self-sufficient. Jason managed to secure a 45-minute call with Dexter directly from inside his upstate New York prison cell. Because Dexter is currently held captive by the state's prison-industrial complex, the audio carries the unmistakable, dystopian interruptions of a Securus jail phone line. It is a bit rough around the edges, but his message cuts through the static and is absolutely essential listening. During the conversation, Dexter systematically dismantles the corporate media's propaganda campaign against so-called "ghost guns" and exposes the establishment's terrifying pivot toward criminalizing the literal tools of creation. They discuss his active appellate battle against a state court system that has openly admitted it does not care about the Second Amendment. Dexter also details the profound mental discipline it takes to survive a political persecution without letting the system break your spirit. He offers a harsh reality check to anyone in the liberty movement who thinks they can simply outrun authoritarianism by fleeing to a different zip code. Tyranny is a maximalist endeavor, and Dexter's unyielding defiance is a blueprint for how peaceful people must stand their ground against an overreaching state. The political class wants his name forgotten and his life ruined to set an example, which is exactly why we refuse to stop talking about him.

In this episode of The Free Thought Project podcast, Matt Agorist and Jason Bassler sit down with legendary journalist, essayist, and transparency activist Barrett Brown. Renowned for his early investigations into the cyber-industrial complex and his work with the crowdsourced investigative wiki Project PM, Barrett became a prime target of the national security state following the 2012 Stratfor email leaks. He subsequently endured five years in federal prison, solitary confinement, and restrictive gag orders—a campaign of state retaliation that only solidified his status as an unbroken voice in the liberty movement. Returning to the show, Barrett brings his signature, uncompromising intellect to expose the inner workings of the modern panopticon and the corporate entities currently building it.
The conversation dives deep into the sprawling nexus of the privatized surveillance state, unpacking the true power dynamic behind Palantir Co-Founder Peter Thiel and his deep-seated connections to the intelligence community. The discussion traces the hidden history of narrative control, examining everything from leaked Jeffrey Epstein communications to new corporate schemes like "Objection AI"—an organization utilizing intelligence-linked actors to score journalist credibility. A major focus centers on the unprecedented infrastructure boom taking place on American soil, where the U.S. already operates over 5,400 data centers—more than the next 14 nations combined—while aggressively constructing thousands more under the guise of "AI." The dialogue explores the frightening reality of an outsourced, unconstitutional data-gathering grid hidden behind corporate NDAs, a recent institutional mutiny that led to Barrett being blacklisted from a major publication by intelligence assets, and a compelling look at how modern information warfare seeks to render truth entirely irrelevant.
Ending on a powerful "White Pill," the episode shifts from the terrifying scale of the cyber-industrial complex to a concrete strategy for dismantling it. Rather than succumbing to defeatism, the discussion highlights the immense vulnerability of these technocratic institutions when faced with decentralized, entirely legal counter-information campaigns. Barrett details an upcoming, real-time demonstration of a massive new crowdsourced investigative offensive. By fusing standard investigative journalism with public research networks and advanced data-processing tools, this hybrid model is designed to crowdsource the exposure of state and corporate corruption at eighty times the speed of previous initiatives. The audience is left with a stark, inspiring reminder: the global surveillance apparatus is structurally weak, entirely dependent on public ignorance, and can be decisively toppled by a focused, legally insulated vanguard committed to reclaiming human liberty.

In this episode of the Free Thought Project podcast, Matt and Jason sit down with early Bitcoin pioneer, entrepreneur, and dedicated liberty advocate, Joby Weeks. Joby has spent his life leveraging disruptive technologies to empower individuals and has been a massive behind-the-scenes force in the freedom movement—even serving as the man behind the legendary Ron Paul blimp. Unfortunately, his massive success in the decentralized space made him a prime target for the establishment. Despite stepping up to help the FBI track down actual cybercriminals, Joby was politically prosecuted and railroaded by the State. Stripped of his assets, held away from his newborn child, and coerced into a plea deal for bureaucratic, victimless crimes, he now holds the grim record for the longest pretrial house arrest in U.S. history—surviving over six years under the thumb of the justice system without a trial.
The conversation delves deep into the mechanics of the government's theatrical lawfare against decentralized money. The discussion explores the massive discrepancy between the bombastic, headline-grabbing claims made by the DOJ and the reality of the paperwork-related charges used to justify the destruction of a legitimate, globe-spanning enterprise. The episode highlights the brutal "punishment by process" that targets whistleblowers and innovators, exploring the philosophical implications of a justice system that relies on endless pretrial detention when they cannot produce a single actual victim.
Despite the relentless targeting by the State, the episode ends on an incredibly inspiring note. Joby shares his unbreakable mindset, explaining how he survived solitary confinement and years of isolation by actively using gratitude as the ultimate antidote to anger and fear. Finally, the discussion pivots to actionable, forward-thinking solutions. The conversation breaks down the absolute necessity of integrating privacy-first technologies—like the untraceable Zano ecosystem—to serve as an impenetrable shield for the liberty movement, ensuring the central banking cartels can no longer target and cripple the innovators building the future of freedom.

In this episode of The Free Thought Project podcast, Jason and Matt sit down with Marc and Craig Wasserman, better known to the world as the Pot Brothers at Law. Quick note before diving in: you may notice some brief audio issues in the opening minutes. We cleaned up everything we could, and while a little roughness remains, the conversation is absolutely worth sticking through.
Practicing law in California for decades, Marc and Craig specialize in criminal defense and cannabis business licensing, compliance, and regulations. They skyrocketed to internet fame in 2015 and now boast over 3 million followers across social media. They are most famous for teaching the public their signature 29-word "Shut the F Up" (STFU) script—a practical, bulletproof guide designed to help citizens peacefully engage with law enforcement while fiercely protecting their constitutional rights.
The conversation dives deep into the realities of the modern justice system and the psychological traps police use to trick individuals into waiving their rights. The discussion dismantles the dangerous myth of having "nothing to hide," detailing how even innocent people can accidentally talk themselves into a cage, and clarifies what legal "cooperation" actually looks like during a traffic stop. The episode also tackles the perverse, revenue-driven incentives of modern policing, the reality that cops are legally allowed to lie to secure an arrest, and how the recent federal rescheduling of cannabis to Schedule III is less about freedom and more about protecting state-enforced corporate monopolies. Ultimately, the show serves as a powerful masterclass in legal self-defense, offering listeners a massive "white pill" on how to outsmart the system, maintain their sovereignty, and use the sound of silence to take their power back.

In this episode of the TFTP Podcast, Jason Bassler and Matt Agorist sit down with Allan Paul Roberts. Allan is an author and researcher dedicated to exposing the globalist agenda to deconstruct society. In his latest work, The Globalist Plan to Collapse Everything to Usher in a New World Order—In Their Own Words, he utilizes an innovative multimedia approach—including over 170 QR codes—to provide readers with direct evidence of the strategies being used to centralize global power.
The conversation explores the origins of Allan’s work, specifically the "revelation" that led him to identify the pillars of American society currently under systematic attack. The conversation pulls no punches, moving from the psychological warfare of "state-as-God" idolatry found in both political parties to the hard reality of the corporate-state panopticon. Roberts provides a "Liberty Perspective" on why the state is obsessed with replacing spiritual sovereignty with political loyalty, particularly in how it manufactures consent for global conflicts. We delve into the mechanics of the modern surveillance state, highlighting the massive 62-square-mile data center and power facility recently approved in Box Elder County, Utah, and its implications for national security and individual privacy. The discussion further examines the dual nature of Artificial Intelligence, weighing its potential for innovation against the risks of ethical erosion and mass surveillance.
Turning toward solutions, we discuss the growing "privacy-focused" movement among the younger generation, including the rise of Layer-1 privacy blockchains like Zano, the use of VPNs, and the importance of "tokenization" in a digital economy. Practical steps for personal sovereignty are also covered, such as transitioning to non-tracking mobile devices and using physical privacy safeguards like camera covers. The episode concludes with a powerful call to action for listeners to reclaim their digital and physical independence through informed resistance and community-building.

In this episode, Matt Agorist, Jason Bassler, and Don Via, Jr. sit down with Dr. Andrew Kaufman, a forensic psychiatrist and natural healing consultant who gained international recognition for his bold departure from the mainstream medical establishment to advocate for health sovereignty and the root-cause resolution of illness. We start off the podcast with Dr. Kaufman explaining how the things he saw inside the current medical establishment were causing harm, leading him to question the corrupt relationship between insurance companies and the medical industry that effectively makes the insurer the boss of the doctor rather than the patient.
Dr. Kaufman discusses how AI is set to play a major role in the near future by enforcing questionable clinical guidelines, predicting that AI will become a central pillar of a burgeoning medical surveillance state. We move into the impact of environmental pollutants and the various dangerous effects of SSRIs, including their role in shortening life spans and creating suicidal thoughts and behaviors. The conversation shifts gears into the AI surveillance state and the role of Palantir, as well as how CBDCs are being implemented globally alongside the rollout of stablecoins in the US. We also discuss how this surveillance infrastructure could be used to control the population via the medical establishment, get Dr. Kaufman's thoughts on the legitimacy of the MAHA movement, and touch on the dangers of glyphosate. We end the show on a "White Pill" note as Dr. Kaufman provides many resources for how we can fight this system and reclaim our autonomy. (Length: 59:45) Click Here to Support TFTP.

In this episode of the TFTP Podcast, Jason, Matt, and Don sit down with James Corbett to talk about the "warp speed" escalation toward war with Iran and the controlled demolition of the anti-establishment movement. James is the founder of The Corbett Report, a leading independent investigative journalist based in Japan who has spent nearly twenty years providing critical, open-source analysis of history, geopolitics, and the hidden structures of the power elite.
The conversation begins with a chilling dissection of the propaganda currently driving the United States toward a hot war with Iran. We draw direct parallels between the slow-drip deceptions of the Iraq War and the accelerated rhetoric of 2026, noting how decades of "imminent nuclear threat" narratives from figures like Benjamin Netanyahu are finally being cashed in. James provides a deep-dive analysis into the strategic significance of the Strait of Hormuz, suggesting that current tensions may be a calculated move to cripple energy competition while simultaneously managing the inevitable collapse of the petrodollar and the global dominance of the U.S. dollar.
We then pivot to the internal collapse of the "America First" movement as Donald Trump systematically purges the anti-establishment loyalists who fueled his rise. By embracing neocon dinosaurs like Lindsey Graham and pushing for the "clean" renewal of FISA Section 702—the very surveillance tool he once claimed was used to illegally spy on him—Trump has signaled a complete realignment with the Deep State.
Finally, the hosts and James explore how a global technocracy is being quietly expanded under the cover of these international crises. We discuss the key actors in this modern evolution of the military-industrial complex and the reality of a surveillance state being built with zero partisan pushback. From an anarchist perspective, we conclude with a "White Pill" solutions-based inquiry: asking whether the blatant failure of the political "inside" path is the necessary catalyst for an open-source revolution. We explore how to stop being spectators to this controlled demolition and instead become the architects of the decentralized, parallel systems required to survive the transition.

In this episode of the TFTP Podcast, Jason and Matt sit down with Sarah Fitzgerald to talk about Operation Gideon's Army. Gideon's Army serves as a high-level, private tactical task force responsible for the safe recovery of trafficked women and children in the United States, and Sarah leads these missions by utilizing her extensive military background and academic expertise in victim advocacy. As a survivor of childhood exploitation herself, she has dedicated her life to bringing freedom to our most vulnerable, ensuring that missions are conducted with the precision of a Marine and the heart of a survivor.
The conversation starts with a look at the history of how Gideon’s Army was founded and the grim reality of the "grooming" process. Sarah explains how traffickers use deep psychological trauma to force victims into accepting their own exploitation, breaking the common stereotype by revealing that many traffickers are actually family members. The discussion dives into the systemic failures of the state, examining how law enforcement is often complacent, participative, or active in covering up these crimes. Sarah shares her own shocking history and a jaw-dropping anecdote from her time in the industry, offering a powerful perspective on how the breakdown of the nuclear family—pushed by both the left and the "manosphere" on the right—is leading to a massive explosion in platforms like OnlyFans.
The episode also explores the distinction between this tactical recovery model and the solo "predator hunting" of activists like Alex Rosen. While acknowledging the awareness created by catching predators, Sarah explains that OGA is set apart by using proper channels to ensure survivors receive long-term victim advocacy and healing. Finally, the dialogue addresses the creeping surveillance state being sold to the public under the guise of "online age verification" and "keeping children safe." Sarah argues that the true hedge against children encountering disturbing content online isn't more government oversight, but more intentional and present parenting.
To close the show, the conversation highlights the shared Marine Corps background between host and guest, celebrating the transition from state service to the frontline of human freedom. Operation Gideon’s Army stands as the ultimate White Pill: a private, voluntary, and tax-free solution to one of the world's greatest evils. Sarah and her team are living proof that we don't need a bloated, corrupt government to protect the innocent—we need courageous individuals taking direct action to bring light into the darkness.

In today's episode of the Free Thought Project podcast, hosts Matt Agorist and Jason Bassler sit down with Sam Knight, the founder of MindlessHQ and creator of the Mindless app. Sam brings a wealth of experience from his years in the mental health field, where he realized a profound truth: fixing mental health requires the same disciplined practice—like meditation and intentionality—as fixing physical health. His work now centers on combating the modern epidemic of digital addiction, helping people break free from the algorithms that keep them endlessly scrolling and entirely disconnected from the real world.
The conversation kicks off with a look at the staggering number of hours the average person spends staring at a screen, touching on the very real possibility that we aren't far from a reality where people check into rehab facilities specifically for screen addiction. From there, the discussion dives deep into how these algorithms are deliberately engineered to foster the intense divides we see in society today. The episode explores the psychological toll of platforms that constantly feed users a diet of violence, giving the masses 24/7 access to trauma in high-definition 4K. This constant digital bombardment isn't just hijacking attention; it is literally stealing time by removing the ability to be present in everyday life. The dialogue examines how screen time is effectively severing humanity from our food sources, from nature, and from genuine human interaction—and debates whether this profound alienation is an accidental byproduct of big tech or a deliberate mechanism of control.
As the episode progresses, the focus shifts to the dark and isolating implications of humans becoming increasingly addicted to AI companions, pushing society further into synthetic relationships. The show reflects on what has been lost since the era well before screen time was even a concept, while Sam offers actionable insights on how to teach the younger generation to tap into that forgotten, analog way of living. Finally, the episode wraps up with "The White Pill," highlighting the brilliant irony of using the algorithm to beat the system at its own game. Sam explains how the Mindless app combats these systemic issues by acting as a mindful buffer, actively driving people to practice being present before they can even open a social media app, ultimately giving them the power to reclaim their cognitive sovereignty.

In this powerful episode of The Free Thought Project Podcast, Jason and Matt sit down with Dominick Izzo, a retired 16-year veteran police officer who transitioned from the "golden boy" of his Chicago-area department to a vocal whistleblower. During his tenure as a Use of Force expert and Field Training Officer, Izzo exposed illegal surveillance within his own department and called out the coerced confession of an innocent woman by his corrupt chief. Today, he is the author of Before the Badge and the host of Cop Talk LIVE, where he actively warns the public—and potential recruits—about the toxic, unconstitutional nature of modern law enforcement.
We start out the podcast talking about why Dominick initially joined the police force and walk through the uncomfortable, slow process of his awakening to the deeply corrupt incentive structures baked into modern policing. He shares an incredible full-circle story about reading a critical article The Free Thought Project wrote about him years ago. He admits it initially pissed him off, but as the veil began to lift, he realized TFTP was absolutely right. This leads us into a deep dive on the reality of policing for profit, exploring how the justice system has fundamentally shifted from "protect and serve" to a massive, state-sponsored revenue collection machine.
We then shift gears to discuss the terrifying surveillance net currently being cast over the country, from ubiquitous Flock cameras to automated license plate scanners tracking our every move. The conversation naturally transitions to the paramilitary shift of ICE. Dominick shares his unfiltered thoughts on the recent tragic deaths of U.S. citizens Renee Good and Alex Pretti at the hands of federal agents. He contrasts his past experiences working alongside the old INS with the masked, unaccountable ICE "Metro Teams" we see stomping on the Constitution today.
Can the current policing system actually be reformed? Dominick answers this by dropping one of the most profound statements ever made on this show: "Every American should be a threat to the police." We then close the show with our solutions-based segment, We ask Dominick how everyday people can bridge the manufactured political divide, talk to their "Back the Blue" family members without choking each other, and unite against the actual overreach of the state.

In this episode of the Free Thought Project podcast, we are joined by Lee Camp, the "most censored comedian in America" and a relentless investigative journalist who has spent decades using satire and hard-hitting reporting to expose the corporate and imperial rot at the heart of the American empire. Despite facing egregious cancellation and deplatformage, Lee has remained a defiant voice for peace, and today he joins Matt, Jason, and Don to dismantle the propaganda currently fueling the fire in Iran.
We dive deep into the geopolitical machinery, with Lee providing the historical context of the Iran conflict and its direct ties to the preservation of the petrodollar. We discuss how this entire roadmap was laid out nearly two decades ago by General Wesley Clark, who famously revealed the Pentagon's plan to "take out seven countries in five years"—a plan that is reaching its final, most dangerous stage today. The conversation moves into the disturbing reports of US military commanders reportedly telling troops that the invasion is a "biblically-sanctioned" event and that President Trump is a messianic figure ushering in Armageddon.
The domestic consequences are just as grim; we discuss the recent arrest of Marine veteran Brian McGinnis, who had his arm broken by Capitol Police while protesting the war, and examine the "tyrannical mindset" of modern policing. From the expansion of the surveillance state via Ring cameras and Flock Safety license plate readers to the "unity" found when an anti-war Leftist and Anarchist-Libertarians find common ground, this episode is a roadmap for how we pierce the partisan veil and withdraw our consent from the war machine.

In this episode, Matt Agorist and Jason Bassler are joined by Jordan Page, an American singer-songwriter and musician who has been a prominent voice in the liberty movement since 2007. A staple of the Ron Paul "R3VOLution" era, Jordan has built a career creating music centered on peace, non-interventionism, and civil liberties. Beyond his iconic musical catalog, Jordan is the CEO of the Firefly Education Network, a cutting-edge home education platform for homeschooling, and the director of the upcoming film, The Book of Atlas.
The conversation dives deep into the evolution of protest music, moving from the hopeful acoustic anthems of the early 2000s to the more defiant and aggressive tones found in tracks like "Arm Yourselves Act III." Matt and Jason reminisce about meeting Jordan at the 2018 Libertarian National Convention in New Orleans, using that moment as a benchmark to discuss how the "fire" of the movement has shifted over the last decade. Jordan also shares the history behind his track "Pendulum," explaining how it served as his first truly revolutionary song and why its message is more relevant today than ever.
We also touch on the philosophy of music as a tool for subconscious awakening. Jordan then plays one of our favorite songs, "Listen," from his 2008 album, Revolution EP. We wrap up with a powerful "White Pill" session, where Jordan identifies the specific trends and generational shifts that give him hope for the future of independent thought and decentralized living.

This episode of the Free Thought Project podcast brings together two of the most essential voices in the alternative media landscape, Gavin Nascimento and Derrick Broze. Hosts Matt Agorist, Jason Bassler, and Don Via, Jr. sit down with these two researchers to explore the deep systemic rot and the technocratic future currently being built around us.
The conversation begins by exploring the strikingly similar paths both guests have walked in their journey toward truth before diving into the Jeffrey Epstein scandal and its intricate ties to the modern technocracy and figures like Peter Thiel. We examine the stunning arrest of Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor (formerly Prince Andrew) on his 66th birthday, questioning whether this represents genuine accountability or a strategic "limited hangout." The discussion suggests this could be a calculated "software update" for the elite, where the old-school reliance on sexual blackmail is replaced by a high-tech infrastructure of total surveillance, where data centers and personal devices provide all the leverage necessary to maintain control.
The dialogue shifts into the darker philosophical roots of this transition, exploring the "Dark Enlightenment" and its influence on both the modern technocracy and the current political landscape, including the ties to Curtis Yarvin. We pull back the curtain on Elon Musk’s complex history and his specific role within the technocratic state, moving then into a deep historical analysis of the eugenics movement and how those same ideologies have been rebranded for the 21st century. The episode also touches on the occult history of these power structures and the pervasive culture of abuse that defines them.
We further discuss the psychological campaign of "learned helplessness" being waged against the public, where a constant stream of corruption is exposed without any resulting accountability, potentially conditioning the masses to accept their own subjugation. Finally, we look at the push for transhumanism through a libertarian lens, weighing the concept of individual choice against the broader implications of merging with a technology controlled by those who have proven themselves untrustworthy. We close the show with our "White Pill" segment, focusing on the practical, solutions-based efforts being made to build a parallel world. (Length: 1:47:17) Click Here to Support TFTP.

This week, Jason Bassler, Matt Agorist, and Don Via, Jr. welcomed Dave Benner to the podcast. Dave is a historian, author, and contributor to platforms like The Tenth Amendment Center, the Mises Institute, and the Abbeville Institute. He has penned essential books such as Thomas Paine: A Lifetime of Radicalism, Compact of the Republic: The League of States and the Constitution, and The 14th Amendment and the Incorporation Doctrine. A staunch advocate of Jeffersonian principles, Dave is an outspoken critic of centralized authority and federal overreach, offering an insightful historical lens to today’s most pressing issues.
The conversation begins by examining the current administration's increasingly aggressive posture toward Iran, which Dave argues is bringing the U.S. closer to the brink of a hot war. This leads into a deep dive regarding the curious rebranding of Jeffrey Epstein as a Russian intelligence asset. Dave provides a brilliant analysis of why the "Russia" label is being used as a desperate limited hangout to protect the domestic and allied intelligence agencies that actually facilitated Epstein’s operation. We clarify that critiquing the state's narrative doesn't make one a friend to foreign criminals like Putin, but rather highlights how the establishment uses foreign boogeymen to shield itself from a true domestic reckoning.
The episode then shifts gears to the absolute "clown show" in D.C. involving Pam Bondi and the Epstein files. We discuss how Thomas Massie caught the DOJ red-handed redacting the names of powerful co-conspirators like Les Wexner while simultaneously leaking the private information of victims. Bondi’s dismissive claims of "Trump Derangement Syndrome" serve as a perfect example of using partisan loyalty as a human shield to block accountability for a pedophile ring. We also touch on the case of Nancy Guthrie, which served as a massive media distraction while exposing a terrifying surveillance reality: the FBI’s admission of pulling data from disconnected, unsubscribed cameras. Finally, we look at the role of Palantir and the elite's view of the public, before Dave offers a powerful "White Pill" by grounding our current struggle in the historical importance of decentralization and the path for individuals to reclaim their sovereignty.

On the Free Thought Project's 200th episode, we sit down with Ancap Tim, a musician and activist whose journey from music ministry and a preacher’s upbringing to radical decentralization has made him a unique voice in the fight for liberty.
We dive deep into the writing on the wall—the 2026 Epstein/Trump disclosures. We discuss the psychological phenomenon of partisan blinders, where the "anti-establishment" faithful often ignore the depravity of their own leaders, and how the DOJ has been used as a shield for predation. Jason Bassler brings a sobering warning: is the state intentionally discrediting itself to pave the way for a technocratic, AI-driven surveillance state?
Before, we pivoted to the "White Pill," Tim entertained us with a live acoustic performance of his track entitled "Rothschild Rag" from his new album "The State is Just A Mafia." Tim then explained how music serves as a catalyst for awakening, bypassing the logical brain to reach the soul, and why the phrase "No King but Christ" is the ultimate declaration of independence from the state’s parasitic "Nature of Empire."

Dylan Allman is a writer, conscientious objector, and liberty activist. A former soldier who broke free from military indoctrination, he now focuses his work on techno-optimism, individual liberty, and exposing the machinery of the state. He writes at the Interlinked Substack and is a vocal critic of the "Uniparty" establishment. In this episode of the Free Thought Project podcast, we are joined by Dylan to dissect the terrifying and rapid expansion of the police state under the guise of "Operation Metro Surge." We dive deep into the blinding hypocrisy of the modern political divide, examining how the "MAGA" right has pivoted from decrying the "Deep State" under Biden to cheering on federal jackboots now that their party holds the leash. We break down the recent tragedy in Minnesota, where Renee Good—an American citizen and legal observer—was gunned down by ICE agents and subsequently branded a "domestic terrorist" by the administration to cover their tracks. We also analyze the viral footage of an innocent American citizen being detained and disarmed by federal agents simply for "looking" like a suspect, asking the hard question: Does the Second Amendment even exist if the state can strip you of it on a hunch? Finally, we explore the "divide and conquer" trap that has the working class fighting each other instead of the technocrats building their prison. We close the show with a powerful "White Pill" solution from Dylan, offering a simple yet profound path toward de-escalating the madness and rebuilding a free society through empathy.

On this episode of the Free Thought Project podcast, Matt and Jason are joined by returning champion Aaron Day for his fourth appearance on the show. Day is a liberty activist, entrepreneur, and author. He is the Chairman of the Stark360 PAC and has been a prominent voice in the Free State Project. His latest ventures include his 2026 U.S. Senate run to promote liberty from the inside and Oasara, a counter-economy solution to medical tyranny.
We kick off the conversation with Aaron’s controversial new bid for U.S. Senate in New Hampshire. Aaron explains why he is entering the belly of the beast and how he plans to use the platform not to govern, but to promote voluntaryist values and expose the two-party paradigm as a criminal enterprise.
The discussion then turns to the state of political prisoners in the West. We break down the "ransom" of Roger Ver—who was effectively extorted for millions to avoid a cage—and discuss the ongoing persecution of privacy pioneers like Ian Freeman and Roman Storm. This bleeds into a critical look at the state of crypto, how Bitcoin has been "hijacked" by institutional interests, and why the EU is terrified of true privacy coins.
Later, we pivot to the solutions: Medical Freedom. Aaron unveils his new project, Oasara, a medical tourism marketplace designed to help people escape the U.S. healthcare price-gouging (where markups can hit 10,000%). He debunks the myths that "cheaper means worse," explains how AI and privacy are being integrated into patient care, and shares his vision for a parallel health system.
We also touch on Aaron’s creative side, discussing his eye-opening AI-generated music, before wrapping up with a unique "White Pill" on finding the leverage to dismantle tyranny. Click Here to Support TFTP.

In this explosive episode, hosts Matt Agorist, Jason Bassler, and Don Via, Jr. sit down with forensic historian and Grand Theft World host, Richard Grove, to meticulously dissect the war machine's play-by-play. We start by exposing the Trump administration's aggressive seizure of a Venezuelan oil tanker and the geopolitical calculations behind the current push for conflict.
Richard traces the deep state's involvement in the multinational drug trade, tying the current Venezuela narrative directly to the decades-old CIA drug trafficking history. We analyze the sheer hypocrisy of the establishment—including the Trump administration's pardon of a convicted Honduran drug-trafficking president—and reveal how international banking families leverage manufactured conflict to build a global machine for world domination. The conversation even takes a detour down JFK memory hole lane, followed by a look at the psychological tricks the establishment uses to keep the voting base blind, compliant, and consistently backing the very systems that enslave them.
The episode pivots to a powerful account of individual agency, detailing the successful, personal campaign Richard and his wife led to free Mohammed Ibrahim, a 16-year-old American citizen who was abandoned by the State Department and held in a torturous IDF prison. Finally, we break down the current status of the political "liberty movement" and end on a solutions-based "White Pill" note, with Richard explaining how true freedom is achieved by claiming self-ownership and mastering practical skills instead of waiting for a political savior.

This week, Jason, Don and Matt sit down with Gareth Icke, host of 'Gareth Icke Tonight' on the Ickonic Network and an outspoken voice for sovereignty and free speech. We start off and go deep into the mechanics of the new digital control grid.
The conversation quickly connects the policing of speech to the economic endgame: the Digital ID rollout. Gareth dissects the terrifying implications of the Digital ID, explaining how it is the ultimate tool for centralized control, tying our speech to a social credit score that can result in financial execution—with even simple consumer actions like automated checkout lines becoming permissioned and human assistance disappearing. We then tie this in to the staggering UK statistic: over 12,000 arrests annually for "offensive" online speech, a chilling phenomenon used to scare people into speech compliance.
Despite this relentless pressure, we discuss how activists in the UK are pushing back and managing to break through the two-party political illusion, showing that resistance is possible. We explore the critical role of certain popular propagandists who rise to fame pretending to be the true resistance, only to fall in line and sell out their bases when actual noncompliance is required.
The conversation gets personal as Gareth opens up about growing up in the unique environment of his family, discussing how the public scrutiny he faced made him and his family stronger and instilled a profound bravery. We end on a powerful white pill, as Gareth explains that the entire digital control system is defeated not by fighting politicians, but by tapping into a simple yet profound truth: personal sovereignty is the solution, and you are the answer.

This week, Jason, Don and Matt sit down with a giant of the liberty movement, the founder of the Brownstone Institute, Jeffrey Tucker.
Jeffrey kicks things off by discussing his relationship with our previous guest, Stefan Molyneux, which leads into a candid conversation about his own intellectual shift over the last decade. He explains how he moved from the black-and-white world of pure anarchism to a more nuanced perspective on complex issues like immigration. This candor sets the stage for a raw discussion on the profound cognitive dissonance in modern politics. We explore how the Trump administration is openly selling out its base with tariffs and new stimulus checks, creating a massive divide within the MAGA movement. Jeffrey offers his take on the psychology of what causes people to continue supporting a system that is so openly exploiting them, and we examine Trump's cozy relationship with the very technocrats he claims to fight, like Peter Thiel.
This theme of co-option pivots the conversation to the financial endgame: the hijacking of Bitcoin. We break down the news of the first-ever central bank—the Czech National Bank—purchasing Bitcoin alongside US dollar-backed stablecoins. This isn't adoption; it's the establishment hijacking the "Bitcoin" brand to legitimize their real goal: a world of regulated stablecoins and total financial surveillance. We connect this directly to BlackRock's plan for the "tokenization of everything" and their mission to buy the world. We also touch on the internal crypto civil wars, discussing Roger Ver and why he's a target of the Bitcoin maximalists.
It's a wide-ranging conversation on the nature of statist co-option, but we end on a powerful white pill, as Jeffrey reminds us that the solution to this high-tech tyranny is a classic one.

This week, Jason and Matt sit down with Stefan Molyneux, a philosopher, author, and host of one of the longest-running philosophy shows in the world, Freedomain. For decades, he has been a prominent voice in the liberty movement and a foundational thinker on the principles of peaceful parenting. The conversation kicks off immediately, jumping straight into one of the most polarizing topics on the right: the rise of Nick Fuentes. Jason asks Stefan for his take on the current brouhaha surrounding Fuentes's popularity and whether he sees parallels between the establishment's attack on Fuentes and the political persecution he himself faced years ago. We explore whether this signals a major shift in the culture—a new Gen Z political class that's rejecting sanitized talking points and demanding raw authenticity, even if it's inflammatory. From there, we dive into the mechanics of modern propaganda, using the recent Charlie Kirk "out of context" smear as a perfect case study of how the establishment manufactures its own reality. This leads to a raw discussion on the new political climate and the uncomfortable debate for all libertarians: pragmatism vs. principle. When does sticking to "libertarian purity" actually undermine the fight for liberty itself? Finally, after diagnosing a culture addicted to coercion, we pivot to the ultimate white pill: the solution. Stefan lays out how the principles of peaceful parenting are the fundamental antidote to this entire cycle, and gives his advice to parents trying to raise sovereign, resilient children in a post-truth world.

This week, Jason and Matt sit down with Mark Goodwin, the former Editor-in-Chief of Bitcoin Magazine and one of the sharpest minds in the crypto space. Mark is the author of "The Bitcoin-Dollar" thesis and a leading voice on the intersection of state power, financial control, and the future of money.
We dive deep into one of the most dangerous psyops in modern finance: the stablecoin trap. Mark explains why "compliant," centralized stablecoins like USDC are not the free-market alternative to a CBDC, but are, in fact, more dangerous. They are the Trojan horse for the exact same surveillance grid—a CBDC in sheep's clothing, built by corporate partners and designed to be fully permissioned, frozen, and censored at the state's command.
Mark breaks down the macro-picture, revealing how stablecoins backed by U.S. Treasuries are the empire's new, high-tech scheme to kick the can down the road. As the national debt hits escape velocity, the state is now "tokenizing its debt," creating a new digital wrapper to prop up the dollar ponzi. We explore the perfect bipartisan consensus that's building this digital prison: the MAGA right rails against CBDCs while embracing "federally approved" stablecoins, while the left demands the very regulations that make them instruments of surveillance. Both roads lead to the technocratic end-goal voiced by BlackRock's Larry Fink: the tokenization of all assets.
We also explore the dark theory of whether Bitcoin itself was an intelligence agency "limited hangout" designed to herd us into a traceable system. Finally, we end on a powerful white pill. If centralized stablecoins are the trap, the only way out is through permissionless technology. We discuss the critical need for true privacy tools—like Monero, Zcash, and Zano's fUSD—that are technologically incapable of being co-opted, and how the market is finally waking up to the demand for real financial freedom.

This week, Jason and Matt go deep into the nature of reality itself with researcher Mark Gober. A former Silicon Valley partner and author of the An End to... "Upside Down" book series, Gober brings a data-driven case for the single most revolutionary—and dangerous—idea in the world: the brain does not create consciousness; it's a receiver for it.
We explore how the entire establishment control system—from technocracy to the medical priesthood—is built on the opposite, "materialist" assumption: that you are a fragile meat-computer, a random accident living in a dead universe, and under constant attack from invisible threats. This is the foundation of the state's fear narrative, a narrative that makes a population powerless, obedient, and easy to control.
This conversation shatters that old paradigm. If we are an interface for consciousness, who—or what—is transmitting the signal? Where does our "inner monologue" actually come from? We discuss the flawed "humanism" of tech billionaires like Peter Thiel, asking if "uploading" a mind to a computer is even possible, or if it's a technocratic pipe dream. The discussion goes further, exploring the undeniable intelligence of plants and the mycelial network, the mind-bending evidence from water crystallization experiments suggesting water responds to emotion, and the deep relationship between language and reality itself.
This was a beautiful and profoundly optimistic conversation—a complete white pill from start to finish. We discuss where the latest, most cutting-edge science on Near-Death Experiences is now converging with the oldest spiritual teachings on the planet. This isn't just a philosophical conversation; it's a blueprint for the liberation of humanity. If we can unplug from the technocrat's fear frequency and tap into this shared reality, the entire "us vs. them" control system becomes obsolete. (Length: 1:04:08) Click Here to Support TFTP.

This week, Jason and Matt go down the rabbit hole with researcher and commentator Jacob Johnson, also known as @RiseToLiberty. Jacob is a fearless voice who specializes in dissecting the darkest tools in the state's arsenal: mind control, propaganda, and the sophisticated psychological operations used to keep the public divided and compliant. He brings a unique and unflinching perspective to subjects many are too afraid to touch.
The conversation is an deep look at the war for your mind. We start by exploring the legacy of the CIA's MKUltra program, detailing its horrific experiments and making the case that these programs never stopped—they just got more sophisticated. Jacob explains how modern mind control is on full display in our political landscape, programming people to be blind to the crimes of their own "team" while being conditioned to never step in and solve problems themselves.
We then tackle one of the most censored topics in the mainstream media: the staggering link between mass shooters and psychiatric drugs like SSRIs, exposing the mountain of evidence that gets ignored in favor of the state's gun control narrative. Finally, after diagnosing the problem of weaponized fear, we explore the ultimate white pill: the power of building real-world, decentralized communities as the most effective antidote to top-down psychological warfare, effectively summed up in the phrase, "Stop Asking for Permission.

This week, Jason and Matt are honored to welcome a titan of the liberty movement, Dr. Mary Ruwart. A research scientist, acclaimed author of Healing Our World, and a tireless advocate for freedom for decades, Dr. Ruwart brings a lifetime of intellectual rigor and compassionate activism to the podcast. She is a factory for the ideas that can set us free.
The conversation is a masterclass in voluntaryist solutions. We kick things off by dissecting the government-created nightmare of modern healthcare, using the recent Pfizer deal as a case study for the corrupt revolving door between the state and Big Pharma. From there, Dr. Ruwart makes the powerful case for a society entirely free from government coercion, explaining how peace and prosperity thrive where voluntary cooperation replaces the state's monopoly on violence.
We then dive into the crucial challenge of messaging: how do we make the principles of liberty and non-aggression appealing to a generation raised on state dependency? The discussion turns to the root of state indoctrination—government schooling—and how the philosophy of peaceful parenting is a radical act of defiance. Dr. Ruwart lays out a vision for a future of decentralized, private learning networks that could make the state's factory-schooling model obsolete.
The entire episode is a white pill, focusing on constructive, positive solutions, and we close by exploring the practical, agorist strategies that empower individuals to stop asking for permission and start building a freer world today. (Length: 1:04:00) Donate/Subscribe to TFTP

This week, Jason and Matt welcome back a guest who has been on the front lines of the battle for police accountability for years—David, better known as San Joaquin Valley Transparency. Four years after his last appearance, we sit down to discuss the evolving landscape of citizen journalism and the ever-expanding police state under the current administration. The conversation kicks off with a dive deep into the political hypocrisy of the last few years, exploring how the right's brief awakening to the police state during COVID has evaporated, and how both political parties simply trade outrage-jerseys depending on who controls the White House. David gives us a crucial on-the-ground perspective from his community on the real-world impact of the recent ICE raids, cutting through the national media narrative. The discussion expands from the visible police on the street to the invisible digital panopticon of companies like Palantir, and we explore the chilling theory of a Hegelian dialectic—asking if social chaos is being deliberately engineered to make a frightened public beg for more control. David's evolution from a street-level auditor to an activist seeking systemic change at city council meetings is a powerful lesson in effective resistance. Despite the heavy subject matter, we close on a much-needed white pill for the future of liberty.

This week, Jason and Matt sit down with a member of the TFTP family, former journalist Kevin Whitson. After contributing hundreds of articles over six years, Kevin has channeled his journalistic and educational skills into a powerful new book, The Paranoid Mystic's Guide to Ending Addiction Now Using Psychedelics. Written after the tragic loss of his son to an overdose in 2020, Kevin's book is a tactical guide for individuals to reclaim their sovereignty from addiction using ancient plant medicines.
In this episode, we kick things off by diving into the foundational steps in Kevin's guide—the radical act of reclaiming one's biology by fixing gut health, eliminating processed foods, and mastering sleep before ever touching a psychedelic. From there, we explore the different tools in the psychedelic arsenal, from psilocybin and cannabis as an "exit drug" to the heavy hitters like Ayahuasca and Ibogaine. This leads to a crucial discussion, with Matt sharing his own transformative experiences, about where to draw the line between a professionally guided ceremony and the sovereign individual's right to heal themselves at home. The conversation also touches on the deeply personal question of using these tools to navigate profound grief, before zooming out to pontificate on the real reason these substances are illegal—as a direct threat to a control system that thrives on a fearful and divided populace.
This is a heavy and deeply personal conversation, but Kevin's resilience and dedication to empowering others is a true inspiration. Despite the dark subject matter, the episode itself is a powerful white pill for the future of cognitive liberty.

In this episode of The Free Thought Project Podcast, Jason, Don, and Matt sit down with Ben Swann — Emmy Award–winning journalist, founder of Truth in Media, and one of the most consistent independent voices in modern journalism. From his early Reality Check segments to his pioneering work today, Ben has built a reputation for exposing the narratives the establishment doesn’t want questioned.
We dive straight into the assassination of Charlie Kirk, dissecting not just what happened, but the motives behind it. We discuss how the killing—carried out in public, on camera, and in front of hundreds of people—was designed to be the perfect catalyst for chaos, a statement or warning from likely professionals who knew exactly what effect it would have.
From there, we shift to the Zarutska stabbing in Charlotte, showing how that tragedy too is being weaponized by the same interests to stoke hatred, deepen division, and create the kind of chaos that consolidates control.
We also talk about Ben’s ongoing work with Truth in Media and the powerful projects they’re building for the future. Despite the dark subject matter, we closed on a positive note—Ben delivered a monologue that everyone needs to hear, a reminder of why we must resist division and cling to hope.

In this episode, we sit down with Chris Hunt, the mind behind The Code of the West. We talk about the decline in masculinity and the shifting roles of men and women, through the libertarian lens of leaving people alone.
We dig into the tension between those who claim to embrace Western values but reveal themselves as openly racist — and how that undermines the very principles they claim to defend.
From there, we move into social media and its corrosive effect on both younger and older generations, before plunging into the world of AI — its potential for liberation and for tyranny. Chris explains how he created his own large language model that abides by the Code of the West, a tool that reflects timeless values in a new age.
Chris closes with a powerful, encouraging monologue that made a white pill unnecessary. This was a conversation outside our normal format — in the best possible way. (Length: 1:12:41) Donate/Subscribe to TFTP: https://tftpsubdomain.wpengine.com/tftp-membership/

In this episode of the Free Thought Project podcast, Jason and Matt sit down with independent journalist 7sees, whose unique investigative style has been gaining serious attention. Known for his striking use of the Obsidian platform to create intricate “idea webs,” 7sees has developed a method of reporting that helps people connect the dots on everything from geopolitics to the technocratic rise of AI surveillance.
We kick off by exploring Palantir and the tentacles it has spread throughout the world. We then dive into his process: why he chose Obsidian, how it shapes his journalism, and why visualization is such a powerful tool for truth-seeking. From there, we dive deep into money and control systems and the end game of the technocrats.
While some see cryptocurrency as the solution, 7sees argues both fiat and mainstream crypto are compromised — a point that leads us to discuss privacy tools like Zano and the broader fight for financial freedom.
The conversation winds through dark but necessary territory: the surveillance state, the creeping technocracy, and how censorship and financial control are converging. Even when our perspectives diverge — like on barter as a solution — the discussion sparks new ways of thinking about how to resist authoritarian creep.
We wrap with a challenge: if the technocratic police state is inevitable, what can we do to stave it off? And if we can’t stop it, how do we survive and escape?
This is a thought-provoking and raw episode with one of the most unique voices in independent media.

In this episode, Jason and Matt welcome their friend Sterling Lujan — a libertarian communicator, author, cryptocurrency advocate, and public speaker known for blending philosophy, psychology, and blockchain technology into a compelling vision for human freedom. Sterling has been a prominent voice in the liberty and crypto movements for over a decade, speaking at conferences worldwide and writing extensively on voluntaryism, privacy, and the future of decentralized systems.
We dive deep into the current assault on financial freedom, starting with the recent Tether freeze of $24 million at the request of authorities and the long history of stablecoin issuers like Tether and Circle instantly seizing funds with no due process. Sterling helps us unpack how legislation like the Genius Act is creating a backdoor for CBDC-style control through government-compliant stablecoins — a rare point of bipartisan agreement in Washington that should raise red flags for anyone who values autonomy.
From there, we discuss the case of Roman Storm, the Tornado Cash developer recently convicted of conspiring to operate an unlicensed money-transmitting business, and what this means for developers of privacy tools going forward. We explore the role of privacy coins like Zano in resisting state and corporate control, and how the Confidential Layer can offer a permissionless, private escape route from surveillance coins.
Sterling also shares his thoughts on the philosophical drift of the crypto space, the importance of keeping liberty at the core of blockchain development, and the solutions individuals can embrace to push back against the rising tide of financial surveillance.

On this episode, Jason and Matt are joined by their close friend Luis Fernando Mises, along with Jennifer Gillis and Misty Brown, two tireless advocates with the American Kratom Association. Together, we dive deep into the criminalization of kratom — from Louisiana's looming ban to the federal government’s quiet war on natural medicine.
Luis Fernando Mises is a consultant who teaches leadership across the U.S., a yoga and meditation teacher, a student of Austrian economics, a statesman with the Libertarian Party, a curandero, an entrepreneur, and a family man. He also runs a successful kratom business and brings rare clarity on both the plant and the marketplace.
Misty Brown is a fierce kratom advocate and consumer who uses her voice to protect whole-leaf kratom and keep it legal and safe. Her work is personal — helping others fight addiction, chronic pain, anxiety, and depression.
Jennifer Gillis has lived with chronic pain for 19 years. After finding real relief through kratom six years ago, she became a dedicated advocate, educator, and truth-teller who supports efforts to keep kratom accessible for all.
We begin with the Louisiana ban, where Misty reveals troubling claims of bribery between a sheriff and a rehab clinic pushing the ban behind closed doors. From there, we move to the federal level — breaking down the media’s obsession with 7-OH (a lab-concentrated alkaloid being falsely labeled as “kratom”) and how it’s fueling disinformation, addiction, and panic.
Luis gives clear and grounded advice on avoiding dangerous gas station extracts and choosing safe, whole-leaf kratom instead. We then explore the FDA’s alliance with Big Pharma, RFK Jr.’s recent crackdown on 7-OH, and how this could pave the way for a nationwide ban.
We dive into Scott Gottlieb’s ties to GlaxoSmithKline, the push for synthetic patents, and the blatant monopolization of nature. Then we bring it home with a hard look at the horrors of prohibition through the heartbreaking stories of Shaina Brown and Marshall Price, two innocent people whose lives were upended — and in one case, ended — over this plant.
We close with each guest offering real solutions and a final word of encouragement to the millions of Americans who use kratom safely, responsibly, and with purpose.
This is a must-listen for anyone who cares about bodily autonomy, plant medicine, and the rising tide of pharmaceutical control.

In this powerful episode, Jason and Matt sit down with Barrett Brown—journalist, author, and one of the most persecuted truth-tellers of the digital age. A former spokesman for Anonymous and founder of Project PM, Barrett gained international attention for exposing the collusion between government surveillance agencies and private intelligence firms. For his efforts, he was targeted and imprisoned by the very system he sought to hold accountable.
Together, we dive headfirst into the modern surveillance state—focusing on Palantir’s explosive expansion under both Trump and Biden. We unpack the disturbing roles played by Peter Thiel, Elon Musk, and the MAGA crowd's blind embrace of tools they once feared. We dissect Musk’s contradictory posture—mocking the very machinery he’s actively building—and how this illusion of rebellion keeps both sides locked in digital chains.
In the final segment, Barrett offers a sobering analysis of how the Anonymous movement has been co-opted by establishment forces and weaponized against real dissent. But we end on a high note—one that only someone who’s endured and survived the belly of the beast can deliver—with Barrett sharing a grounded, powerful insight into how we can still claw our way toward freedom.

Connor Boyack, creator of the wildly popular Tuttle Twins series, joins The Free Thought Project Podcast this week for an expansive, energizing conversation on liberty-based education, parenting in the surveillance age, and how to raise young minds that can think critically in a world full of propaganda.
Inspired by the Ron Paul revolution, Connor shares the origin story of Tuttle Twins, a project that started with a simple idea: give kids the tools to understand freedom, economics, and government power before the system conditions them otherwise. Since then, his books have sold millions of copies, been translated around the globe, and adapted into an animated series now being aired by governments and networks worldwide. Connor walks us through the thinking behind these projects and how he balances complex political and economic themes with fun, engaging storytelling that kids actually want to read. We discuss titles like The Creature from Jekyll Island and The Fate of the Future, and ask Connor which books he thinks have been the most impactful—and why.
Then the conversation shifts to today’s battleground: the digital domain. We ask how parents can protect their children’s minds and privacy as they're increasingly targeted by algorithmic dopamine loops, doomscrolling, and even AI tools marketed as “friends” or “therapists.” We also explore the darker realities of flock cameras, Palantir data fusion hubs, and the emerging technocratic surveillance grid—and what it all means for the next generation.
Finally, we close with our signature “white pill” segment, where Connor offers one of the most grounded and hopeful answers we’ve heard yet: that connection—with our kids, at the dinner table, in real conversation, is the antidote to indoctrination. This episode is a must-listen for anyone who cares about the future of liberty, parenting, or resisting the growing mental control matrix of the modern world.

Rachel Blevins returns to The Free Thought Project Podcast this week for a hard-hitting, unfiltered conversation about the state of U.S. foreign policy, media manipulation, and what we can do to push back. A former editor and journalist for TFTP, Rachel has since built a powerhouse independent journalism career, reporting on war, corruption, and censorship with the precision of an entire news agency.
In this episode, Matt, Jason, and Don dive right into the war in Ukraine, where Donald Trump has once again flipped the script. After campaigning on his ability to “end the war in 24 hours,” he’s now promising to send more weapons—breaking yet another key promise and reigniting questions about where he truly stands.
From there, we shift to the 12-day war between Israel and Iran and the very real potential for regional—or even global—escalation. Rachel breaks down how the U.S. quietly inserted itself into the conflict and points out something few are willing to say: while many people think Israel controls U.S. foreign policy, it’s often the U.S. that has long-term war plans in motion. Iran, as Rachel reminds us, has been on the Pentagon’s hit list for decades.
The conversation then moves to another major betrayal—Trump’s broken promise to release the Epstein files. With the new narrative that “the files don’t exist” and that it’s time to move on, we examine the timing and motives behind this abrupt reversal. Rachel offers nuanced insight into the intelligence ties behind the Epstein operation and how this story may be far from over.
As always, we close with a white pill—and Rachel delivers. Her final thoughts are a powerful reminder that even in the face of censorship, propaganda, and geopolitical chaos, there are still things we can do to make a difference.

G. Edward Griffin needs little introduction—at 93, this author, documentary filmmaker and founder of Unfiltered Media has spent more than half a century exposing hidden power, most famously in The Creature from Jekyll Island, where he traced the secret meeting that birthed the Federal Reserve. In this episode of The Free Thought Project Podcast, Matt Agorist, Jason Bassler and Don Via Jr. sit down with Griffin to map the banking cartel’s century-long blueprint for control and plot how we break its chokehold.
We launch into the 1910 rendezvous on that remote Georgia island—no hearings, no debate—where a cabal of bankers and politicians sketched out the Fed, then fast-forward to today, as Griffin pulls back the curtain on how the same elites are weaponizing digital currencies, surveillance algorithms and predictive analytics to usher in a technocratic state. He lays bare their endgame: collapse the old order and herd us into a system of total oversight, where every dollar and dissenting thought is tracked.
But this isn’t just an economic exposé. We dive into the philosophical roots of our engineered society—how a government stripped of principle by design has betrayed the founders’ grand experiment in liberty—and ask what it will take to reawaken those checks and balances before they’re gone for good. As the clock winds down, Griffin shares his vision for the Red Pill Expo, a gathering meant to spark a new revolution of truth-seekers.
And just when you think you’ve heard it all, we hit you with one of Griffin’s own truths as our white-pill moment: a reminder that the fight demands action now, or the price of victory will only climb. His answer—about the decision he’s making in this very moment and the step each of us must take before this episode ends—is one you won’t want to miss.

In this episode of The Free Thought Project podcast, Jason and Matt sit down with author and truth seeker Jeffrey Hann, whose recent books The Fallacious Belief in Government and COVID-19: Short Path to ‘You’ll Own Nothing and You’ll Be Happy’ pull no punches in exposing the brutal realities of global control, technocratic overreach, and engineered tyranny.
We dive deep into the AI surveillance dragnet being built around us, the implications of Trump’s war rhetoric and alignment with the military-industrial complex, and the broader patterns of manufactured crises being used to usher in the new age of control. Jeffrey lays out what he believes is a path of inevitable collapse—and how to survive what’s coming.
But we didn’t stop there.
We also explored how decentralization, privacy coins like Zano, and conscious resistance to the digital slavery grid are not just strategies — they’re necessities. And even though much of the conversation focused on the darkness of our current moment, we still managed to close things out on a white pill — with hope, empowerment, and the reminder that we still have choices.
Tune in, question everything, and remember: awareness is the first step toward liberation.

On this episode of The Free Thought Project podcast, Matt, Jason, and Don sit down with legendary civil liberties attorney and constitutional scholar John W. Whitehead, founder and president of The Rutherford Institute. John has been on the front lines of the battle for freedom for over four decades—fighting government overreach in courtrooms, writing more than a dozen books (including Battlefield America), and warning us about the coming surveillance state long before it was mainstream.
We kick off the show unpacking Trump’s unhinged push for war with Iran and the ruling class interests pulling the strings behind him. As John reminds us, every U.S. war begins with lies—and none of them make us safer. From there, we pivot into the creeping technocracy swallowing our rights, with Trump now embracing Palantir to track, score, and ultimately target dissenters—especially those who dare to oppose war.
John helps us break it all down, showing how the surveillance state isn’t about security—it’s about control. And as always, we wrap with some much-needed white pills. John offers a grounded and inspirational vision for resistance, from local action to legal defense, reminding us that the fight is not over—and that freedom is still worth fighting for.

In this episode, Jason, Matt, and Don sit down with Matt Cormier, the researcher and creator behind HealthUncensored.com, a platform dedicated to exposing the hidden forces undermining public health — from metabolic decline and environmental toxins to medical censorship and institutional fraud.
We dive deep into Matt’s current focus: the global drop in average human body temperature and what it signals about our collective health. Matt explains why this subtle shift could be a canary in the coal mine for immune dysfunction, metabolic disease, and widespread hormonal collapse — and why it's not being discussed.
The conversation expands into the root causes behind this trend, including ultra-processed food, toxic plastics, pharmaceutical overload, and a rigged medical establishment that would rather normalize dysfunction than fix it. We also discuss Matt’s efforts to publish a powerful study on autism and the connection between body temperature and cognitive function.
To wrap it all up, we ask Matt how humanity can “get hot again” — leaving listeners with a call to action and a hopeful reminder that awareness is the first step toward healing.

In this enlightening episode of The Free Thought Project podcast, Jason flies solo (with Matt on vacation) for a deep-dive conversation with longtime liberty activist and Free Talk Live co-host, Mark Edge. Note: Jason's mic wasn’t working correctly for the first 17 minutes — but the insights are worth sticking around for.
Mark's radio co-host and Free Talk Live co-founder, Ian Freeman, is currently serving time in federal prison for the "crime" of facilitating Bitcoin transactions — a glaring example of the federal government’s ongoing war on crypto. We unpack Ian's unjust prosecution, his prank encounter with Joe Biden that may have put him in the feds’ crosshairs, and the heartbreaking reality that Free Talk Live is now on life support.
Jason and Mark also reflect on their time at the 2025 Bitcoin Conference in Las Vegas, the energy and evolution of the crypto movement, and briefly touch on Roger Ver’s new book Hijacking Bitcoin. We discuss the importance of decentralization, the co-optation risks crypto faces, and Ross Ulbricht’s powerful first public speech since being imprisoned in 2013.
The conversation turns toward the two-party illusion, the failures of political reform through party expansion, and whether a potential second Trump term could change the trajectory of the crypto crackdown. We wrap with a white pill: Mark’s optimism, what keeps him going after nearly two decades in the fight for liberty, and how we can support Ian and others like him.
This is a must-listen for anyone who cares about digital freedom, liberty activism, and the future of financial sovereignty. (Length: 51:10) Support TFTP with subscription: https://thefreethoughtproject.com Jason's Website for Upcoming 'KYR class': https://www.jasonbassler.com/

In this special episode of The Free Thought Project Podcast, Jason and Matt sit down with Aaron Day and Quinten van Welzen for a powerful and hopeful discussion about Zano, digital freedom, and the future of decentralized resistance.
This episode avoids the heavy tech jargon and instead explores the human philosophy and mission behind Zano — a cryptocurrency project that’s much more than just a coin. Quinten breaks down how Zano enables private transactions, confidential assets, community marketplaces, and even user-generated coins, making it a full privacy-respecting ecosystem built to empower individuals around the world.
We also dive into Zano’s deflationary economic model, contrasting it with the unchecked inflation and debt-fueled spending of centralized governments — particularly relevant as the U.S. ramps up military budgets and inches closer to CBDC-style control through stablecoins.
Aaron shares insight on the broader battle for financial freedom and privacy, including his advocacy for Roger Ver, who is facing politically motivated prosecution. We end the show with an important update on Roger’s case — and why a recent Department of Justice memo could mean it should be dropped altogether.
If you’re looking for real tools to opt out of the digital control grid — and some much-needed inspiration — this is an episode you don’t want to miss. (Length: 1:04:08) Little Free Thinkers: 'Know Your Rights' Children's book: https://littlefreethinkers.com/

In this week’s episode of The Free Thought Project Podcast, Jason, Matt, and Don sit down with John Kiriakou—former CIA officer turned whistleblower, best-selling author, and one of the few people ever prosecuted for exposing the U.S. government’s illegal torture program. After blowing the whistle on CIA waterboarding, John became a powerful voice for truth, transparency, and accountability in an age of state secrecy and suppression.
We dive straight into the current state of the American police state, discussing the Trump administration’s troubling remarks about suspending habeas corpus, and what that could mean for dissenters and immigrants alike. We explore the alarming normalization of censorship, as the U.S. government continues to universities and punish those who dare to speak out against its narratives.
The conversation then turns to U.S.-Israel relations, as we analyze the theatrical "shift" in Trump’s tone toward Netanyahu and Israel’s influence on American foreign policy. Is it genuine? Or just more Kabuki theater masking business as usual? John gives us some powerful insight on why this may actually be genuine.
We also examine America’s role in cultivating the opium trade in Afghanistan, and the decades-long hypocrisy of the so-called war on drugs. John offers rare firsthand insight from inside the system—what was said versus what was done—and how that disconnect continues to drive global suffering.
As always, we end on a white pill note, asking John what gives him hope and whether the truth is still worth the cost in a world that punishes it. His answer is as heartfelt as it is encouraging.
This is a wide-ranging, no-holds-barred conversation with one of the bravest voices in modern American history.

In this episode of The Free Thought Project Podcast, Jason and Matt welcome back returning guest Carey Wedler, a journalist, editor, and long-time voice for liberty and integrity in independent media. Carey is the author of the Pleasure to Burn Substack, where she dives into topics ranging from political hypocrisy and propaganda to fear psychology and decentralization—all through a lens of principled consistency.
We kick off the episode by digging into Carey’s recent article she wrote for the Free Thought Project, “From Drain the Swamp to Drown in Debt,” where she calls out the glaring hypocrisy in the first 100 days of the Trump administration. We examine how so many of Trump’s supporters—who once decried big government, war, censorship, and surveillance—now cheerlead these same policies under a new banner. Why is it so easy for people to abandon their principles? Why does team loyalty seem to override truth?
Carey unpacks those questions with a powerful exploration of fear, chronic stress, and the neuroscience behind political compliance. She explains how manipulated fear responses, constant crisis narratives, and tribalism keep the public in a reactive state—where principles are sacrificed and critical thinking is sidelined.
Despite the grim outlook, Carey leaves us with a handful of hopeful, empowering white pills—reminding us that awareness, decentralization, and inner peace are potent forms of resistance.
This was Carey’s second time on the show, and as always, she brought both clarity and depth to the conversation.

In this explosive episode of The Free Thought Project podcast, Jason, Matt, and Don sit down with returning guest James Corbett — independent journalist, researcher, and founder of The Corbett Report. Known globally for his meticulous investigations into 9/11, technocracy, and the rise of globalist power structures, James has been producing hard-hitting alternative media content since 2007. He’s been a principled voice for truth when it was neither profitable nor popular — and he’s back with us for the second time, following the release of his new book, Reportage: Essays on the New World Order.
Together, we discuss the bizarre mainstream pivot toward 9/11 skepticism and how those once labeled “fringe” are suddenly finding their narratives validated — but without acknowledgement or accountability from the establishment that smeared them. James unpacks the psychology of gaslighting, the legacy media’s shifting tactics, and why this moment matters for independent media.
We also dive into the Trump administration’s creeping technocratic police state, how legacy outlets like Mother Jones and shady ops like PropOrNot tried to silence voices like ours and James’s, and what we can do to keep the truth from being weaponized all over again.
This is a white-pill conversation for those who’ve spent years pushing back against official lies — and a warning for those tempted to let their guard down now that the liars are “letting us be right.” (Length: 55:40) You can follow, support, and study all Corbett's work at his website, https://www.corbettreport.com/ Find his new book here: https://reportagebook.com/
In this compelling episode of The Free Thought Project podcast, hosts Jason, Matt, and Don sit down with constitutional activist Joshua Martinez to delve into his remarkable journey of standing up for his rights against formidable odds. Josh shares his intense and often harrowing experiences with law enforcement, detailing how his efforts to assert his constitutional freedoms led to a series of confrontations with the authorities.
He recounts how his activism put him on the radar of Detective Kenneth Mead, whom he says orchestrated efforts to disrupt his life and silence his voice. Josh discusses the events that led to his arrest on trumped-up charges, resulting in an astonishing $1 million bail. Despite being portrayed by the state as a dangerous domestic terrorist, he faced these allegations head-on in court.
Josh provides an inside look at his recent legal battle, which concluded just last week with a sentence of probation and a brief period of house arrest—far from the severe penalties the prosecution sought. Throughout the conversation, he emphasizes the importance of knowing one's rights and the challenges that come with asserting them in the face of systemic resistance.
Ending on a positive and inspiring note, Josh reflects on the personal growth he experienced through these trials and reaffirms his commitment to activism and constitutional advocacy. His story is a powerful reminder of the resilience of the human spirit and the enduring importance of civil liberties.
Over the years, The Free Thought Project has worked to cover Josh’s story when no one else would, standing with him in the face of a system that sought to silence him. While mainstream outlets only chose to smear him, we’ve continued to shine a light on the injustice he’s faced, fighting for the truth to be told. This episode is no exception, as we dig deeper into the broader issues of governmental overreach and individual rights—a conversation that resonates deeply with our mission.

In this week's episode of The Free Thought Project Podcast, Jason, Matt, and Don are thrilled to welcome back Derrick Broze for the fourth time. Derrick is a stalwart of independent journalism, the Founder and Editor-in-Chief of the Conscious Resistance Network, and a long-time contributor to The Last American Vagabond. He's been a beacon of truth in an era of widespread misinformation and a close friend to our hosts. Derrick joins us to discuss some of the groundbreaking projects he's currently working on, including "The People's Reset," which offers a liberty-focused alternative to the elite's Great Reset.
Our conversation kicks off with a dive into 9/11, reflecting on its anniversary and examining the persistent activism that continues to seek the truth about that tragic day. Derrick shares his insights into the ongoing fight for transparency and accountability, highlighting the importance of never forgetting the foundational role this event has played in shaping global politics.
We then pivot to another pressing issue Derrick has been passionately advocating against—water fluoridation. We discuss his groundbreaking work in exposing the dangers of fluoride in our water supply, dissecting recent mainstream media coverage and their attempts to spin the narrative.
Next, we delve into "The People's Reset," an inspiring project Derrick is spearheading to help individuals navigate and thrive in today’s challenging economic landscape. It's a refreshing take on how we can resist and build alternative systems outside the control of globalist agendas. Derrick explains how "The People's Reset" aims to empower communities, fostering resilience and independence in the face of an uncertain future.
As always, we end on a hopeful note. Derrick shares details about the exciting Independent Media Alliance he's helping to put together with some other great partners. This initiative aims to counteract the legacy media's establishment propaganda, providing a platform for truth-seekers and independent voices to unite and amplify their message.

On this week's episode of the Free Thought Project Podcast, Jason and Matt sit down with Bess Byers, a dynamic entrepreneur and political advocate who’s made waves in both the cannabis industry and the realm of free-market libertarianism. Bess founded Blaise Creative, a cannabis marketing agency, in 2017, where she specialized in social media, content creation, and communications for companies passionate about the plant, patients, and pesticide-free products. But her journey took a challenging turn when her views on COVID—views that have since been vindicated—led to her being shamed out of the industry.
Fortunately, Bess bounced back and expanded her focus back into political work. She joined the team at Reason in 2021, where she contributes to their social media and vertical video efforts, advocating for free minds and free markets. Her powerful content has garnered millions of views and even caught the attention of members of Congress, the Senate, and international news outlets.
In this episode, we delve into Bess’s fascinating journey, from her early days in cannabis marketing to her impactful work at Reason. We explore the challenges she faced during the pandemic and how she has used her voice to stand up against the establishment narrative.
One of the major topics we tackle is the Orwellian nature of our modern police state, exemplified by Bess’s recent exposé for Reason Magazine on how your vehicle is spying on you. Your car is likely collecting and sending a treasure trove of private information to third parties, insurance companies, and other actors—all without your consent. We discuss the terrifying implications of this surveillance, why so many people seem indifferent to the invasion of their privacy, and, most importantly, how you can opt-out and reclaim your privacy.
Join us for this thought-provoking conversation as we navigate the intersections of technology, privacy, and the ever-growing police state, and learn from Bess how to fight back against these encroachments on our freedom.

In this episode of the Free Thought Project Podcast, Jason and Matt sit down with the brilliant and insightful Chloe Macintosh, a leading voice in the field of sexual wellness and the founder of Kama, a platform dedicated to helping people achieve greater intimacy, connection, and pleasure in their lives. Chloe’s background is as diverse as it is impressive—she’s a former architect, tech entrepreneur, and previously served as the Chief Creative Officer at Made.com. With a passion for improving human well-being through open, honest conversations about sex and relationships, Chloe has become a prominent advocate for sexual wellness as a pathway to personal and societal betterment.
During the podcast, we dive deep into the importance of sexual wellness and its profound impact on making the world a better place. Chloe helps us explore the often-overlooked issue of sexual repression and how it has led to numerous societal problems, including the rise of violent porn, loneliness, relationship difficulties, and other pervasive issues.
We also take a fascinating look at the male infatuation with specific parts of the female body, examining the roots of these fixations in both biology and societal norms. Chloe offers incredible advice and mind-blowing perspectives on how understanding and being comfortable in your own body and mind can lead to healthier relationships, better communication, and a more fulfilled life.
This episode is an eye-opener for anyone interested in how sexual wellness intersects with broader issues of mental and emotional well-being. Chloe's insights and advice are not just about improving our intimate lives—they’re about creating a world where people are more connected, compassionate, and in tune with themselves and each other. Don't miss this enlightening conversation that could very well change the way you think about sex, relationships, and your own journey towards personal fulfillment.

On this week’s episode of the Free Thought Project Podcast, Jason and Matt welcome back one of our most respected and returning guests, Scott Horton, for the third time. Scott is the director of the Libertarian Institute, editorial director of Antiwar.com, and the host of Antiwar Radio on Pacifica, 90.7 FM KPFK in Los Angeles, California. He's also a prolific author with several must-read books, including Enough Already: Time to End the War on Terrorism and Fool’s Errand: Time to End the War in Afghanistan. His work is pivotal in educating and mobilizing countless individuals in the pursuit of peace and liberty.
In this episode, we commemorate the 32nd anniversary of the Ruby Ridge standoff—a dark chapter in American history where the government unleashed deadly force on a family simply trying to live off the grid. Scott gives us a detailed history of the event, followed by an exploration of how Ruby Ridge became the blueprint for the Waco siege and the tragedy of the Branch Davidians. But Scott doesn't stop there—he ties these historical events into a broader narrative, showing how the government has perfected its playbook of turning ordinary Americans into "domestic terrorists" through propaganda and setups.
From there, Scott connects the dots between these domestic tragedies and American foreign policy. He draws chilling parallels between the state’s tactics at Ruby Ridge and Waco and the actions of Israel in Gaza, where he argues that the Israeli government carries out the equivalent of 20 Ruby Ridges a day.

Cristián is a recent recipient of the Serena Shim Award For Uncompromising Integrity In Journalism and has devoted much of his life to bringing Americans the transparency and accuracy they deserve in media.

In this episode, we delve into the recent assassination attempt on former president Donald Trump and the massive storm of disinformation surrounding the event. We discuss how supposed "truth tellers" have been sharing easily debunked false narratives just to get clicks. We examine Israel's influence over the United States government and pose this critical question to our listeners: "What has Israel ever done for the US?"
We talk about the horrifying war in Gaza and the slaughter of Palestinians by the IDF, highlighting how even Jews who stand against it are referred to as antisemitic. We scrutinize Trump's odd and suspect choice of JD Vance for his Vice President. Lastly, we discuss false heroes like Elon Musk, who pretend to stand for free speech while boosting talking heads that merely post rage clickbait and suppressing actual establishment-challenging narratives.

As a result, she spent 888 days in custody, having been in 11 different US prisons where she experienced physical and psychological pressure, torture, and bullying daily.
During the podcast, Mira talks about the Myrotvorets website. Myrotvorets translates as "peacemaker," but in actuality is a Ukrainian website that functions as a kill list for individuals who challenge the establishment narrative on Ukraine. Though Ukraine denies government involvement in the kill list, it was admittedly started by an employee of the Luhansk Security Service of Ukraine. Many of the folks whose names have appeared on this list have been executed extra-judicially. Mira explained that there are over 370 children on this list, prominent American mainstream journalists, and Mira herself. On top of the kill list, we also discuss the importance of peaceful communication between ostensible political rivals, knowing and understanding history, and why it is imperative to see through the war party's propaganda machine.

This week Matt and Jason spoke to antiwar legend and Ron Paul's right-hand man, Daniel McAdams. Daniel is the executive director of the Ron Paul Institute For Peace & Prosperity. He also served as the foreign affairs, civil liberties, and defense/intel policy advisor to U.S. Congressman Ron Paul from 2001 until Dr. Paul’s retirement at the end of 2012. For several years in the 90s, he worked as a journalist based in Budapest, Hungary, and traveled through the former communist bloc as a human rights monitor and election observer.
In our conversation this week, we discussed the Rage Against the War Machine rally in Washington, DC, just a week earlier, and the left/right coalition that organized the rally. We also listened to a clip from the Rachel Maddow show about the rally and discussed how she framed it as a blatant act of propaganda. We talked about why war propaganda is so important to the war machine and why it has worked for decades. We also dissected the billions sent to Ukraine and the Nordstream 2 pipeline explosion in the Baltic sea. We talked about how intelligence agencies influence the information wars and delved into the extremely relevant question: Is journalism dead? (Length: 59:09)

Barrett Brown is a journalist, activist, and media critic whose work has appeared in Vanity Fair, The Guardian, The Intercept, Huffington Post, Wired, Vice, The Daily Beast, al-Jazeera, and dozens of other outlets. In 2011 he began overseeing an investigation into the private intelligence contracting industry via his research collective Project PM, which the Department of Justice subsequently labeled a “criminal organization”; in 2012, he was arrested and charged with a variety of offenses that Reporters Without Borders and other entities denounced as retaliation for his work. He served four years in federal prison, from which he won the National Magazine Award for commentary and other awards.
On this week's podcast, Jason and Matt talk with Barrett about a shift in media and the narrative he watched unfold from inside prison. Barrett expounds on the vast influence Peter Thiel wields over media and government and how he uses that influence to usher in a technocratic dystopia. Barrett also delves into the role Elon Musk is playing in this push toward technocracy and how many of today's ostensible "independent" voices could actually be funded by these very forces.

On this week's podcast, Jason and Matt sit down with Dan Dicks. Dan is an investigative journalist and an award-winning documentary filmmaker. He is also the founder of the independent media outlet known as Press For Truth which produces videos and documentary films about issues that the mainstream media often fails to report. Dan's list of documentaries dates back to his 2008 debut film, "The Nation’s Deathbed" which focused on a protest that Dan attended in Montebello, Quebec. Since then, Dan has continued his work, creating thought-provoking videos and documentary films that have garnered millions of views.
During the podcast, we dive into the censorship regime's push to silence truth by conflating it with wild conspiracy theories. We discuss how COVID-19 tyranny is not going away and how it is being used to suppress current and future dissent. We also delve into the woke cult, their tendency to go after society's most vulnerable, and the reasoning behind it. In true TFTP fashion, we also get into the solutions to the problems of the technocratic police state, why it is essential to become self-sustainable, and the importance of taking a stand, wherever that may be. This is not a podcast you want to miss. (Length: 1:02:39)

Maj Toure is an American libertarian political activist and rapper. Toure is closely associated with the Mises Caucus wing of the American Libertarian Party. A native of North Philadelphia, Toure founded the educational nonprofit organization Black Guns Matter in 2016. Through the Black Guns Matter movement, Toure and his group educate and inform urban communities about their 2nd amendment rights and responsibilities — and they do it all for free — funded by donations.
On this podcast, Jason and Matt sit down with Toure to discuss the importance of armed societies and their role in preserving liberty. We discuss the how and why behind a massive censorship campaign to silence those who espouse these ideas and how that campaign — although it has purged many social media accounts — is failing to stop the idea whose time has come, freedom. We also discuss government false flags and gun control, the collapse of the modern empire, the power of private security, the importance of finding common ground, even when dealing with political allies, the cultural revolution and how the younger generations aren't accepting the statist paradigm, and why Maj is a Libertarian and why he rocks with the Mises Caucus.

He's also a Yoga instructor, a Meditation teacher, a student of Austrian Economics, a Statesman with the Libertarian Party, a Curandero, an Entrepreneur, and a Family man.

Luis provides some powerful insight into the realm of plant-based medicine as well as explains how altered states of consciousness can be achieved through breathwork. Luis is a certified breathwork instructor and he offers classes in which he teaches others how to reach these higher states of consciousness through breathing.
