I know it’s becoming popular to hate on psychedelics, but personally, nothing has accelerated my journey towards freedom, purpose, & having a relationship with God more than experimentation with these substances.
My convo w/ @nprofile…7ypr gets to the heart.

Discovering the Christ Within ft. Rev. Carol Saunders [SFP077] is now on YouTube.
This one was a great riff and one of the conversations which really got me thinking deeper about the relationship between human ethics and human freedom.
Go drop a like 🙏

Another one up on the YouTube channel.
This one was a timeless conversation with @nprofile…zeh0 about libertarianism.
We go deep on all the nuances and ethical sticking points of libertarian philosophy, and test to see if it truly holds up.
Check it out:

At the end of 2023 I left YouTube and decided to take The Staying Free Podcast audio only, due to covid related censorship.
Unfortunately pod platforms are terrible for discovery. So now that I've steered things in a different direction with the pod, and talking very little about the 💉, I decided to pick up the YouTube channel and start posting the episodes where I left off - so that the archive of episodes will be available over there (aside from the episodes that were pulled by YouTube).
Starting with Unrestricted Warfare and the Chinese Takeover ft. Brian O’Shea [SFP058] 👇
Will be catching up over the coming months. Feel free to subscribe and join the journey of my past couple of years of conversations.

One of the problems with the UK is that many of the “pro freedom” people are still pretty statist.
Sure, they’ll rally behind anti vaccine protests because there’s a strong anti big pharma or anti big corporation sentiment, but if you were to suggest that we should end government schooling, the NHS, or allow the right to bear arms, they would gasp at that.
People generally do like big government in the UK, they just have this rosy idea that if only it were all a bit more appealing to the British white working class.
Thing is, we need to massively reduce the state and massively increase individual freedoms simultaneously, for the UK to have any chance of not becoming like communist China (but without the prosperity).
I worry that few a ready for how radical that conversation must be.

Anyone who has tried their hand at podcasting knows it takes heaps of consistent time and dedication.
Boosts like this on @npub1v5u…n0v5 make it worthwhile.
Awesome to know there are people out there not just getting value, but willing to give back.
Thank you @nprofile…jasf ! 🙏

Freedom Roundtable 2024 ft. Parallel Mike, Hrvoje Morić & PJ Buys
In this 2024 addition of my annual roundtable conversations, we reflect on the year past, touching on key events and developments that shaped the world. But as is often the case, the discussion takes a turn into philosophical territory, exploring deeper questions about the nature of connection, the search for meaning, and the path ahead. This episode became more than just a review of the year - it’s a meditation on how we navigate the chaos of life.
As my favourite conversation to date, this episode is filled with rich insights and reflections on the forces that shape our lives. The discussion weaves through the personal and the universal, exploring the concepts that are at the core of the human condition, and how spiritual and Biblical teachings can serve as a guide in precarious times.
