In this episode, I'm a guest on the Jim Gale Show (C.E.O of Food Forest Abundance) and share my story on how I ended up stepping into the "free speech" landscape, encouraging others to freely express themselves, in life, and on my podcast. I encourage everyone to check out Jim's podcast. He's a true visionary, along with Matthew Britt, who wear their hearts on their sleeves. wanting to share that love with the world.
"J-man comes from a 20-plus year career in entertainment as a former radio announcer and emcee at festivals and other public appearances. He shares ways he was programmed before to “play the game,” some of which involved deception.
Never intending to be “in the spotlight” as one opening more doors to free speech, J-man has been moved by many of his guests including those injured by the jab, and others who lost jobs for refusing to take part in medical intervention."

Wednesday Oct 19, 2022
Wednesday Oct 19, 2022
In this well-balanced video, Umar Sheikh discusses the importance of freedom of choice, and how the government is using artificial divides to push through its mandates.
Umar is a lawyer based out of British Columbia and decided to take up Charter cases after seeing this divide growing on a personal, and professional level. He's representing pilots and nurses placed on unpaid leave (or fired) for declining medical intervention.
He also discusses the importance of using our voices to fight for justice and freedom. It was an absolute pleasure having him on the podcast.

NASA Is A Lie, Here’s WHY! | ”Flat Earther” David Weiss
Thursday Jul 21, 2022
Thursday Jul 21, 2022
David Weiss is the face and voice of flat earth, and NASA doesn't jive with flat eathers in general. David believes NASA is a hoax, and that it was created with the intent of misguiding the public, having them focus on what's "out there" as opposed to what's here. David and I discuss Apollo 11, the lunar landing, Captain Kirk's real-life trip to space, the space station, and loads of clips that will definitely leave you scratching your head.

Unapologetic & Possibly Unpopular | Transgender Talks On Today’s Heated Topics
Tuesday Jul 12, 2022
Tuesday Jul 12, 2022
This is my talk with Kacey, a post-op trans female. I've been wanting to have this conversation for a while to gain a greater understanding of potential points of view. In this podcast, we discuss youth transitioning (education, blockers, etc...) trans in sports, pronouns, exploring identity, and when that identity could be creating division instead.
This is uncut and raw, I was also incredibly nervous recording this, and hoping that when you watch this, you'll see my genuine, curious nature about the topic, hoping that it will lead to further fruitful conversation and a better understanding of this sphere.

It's not always easy, but it also goes both ways.... are we doing our best to have constructive, empathetic conversations with one another. How hard are we really trying to "understand' one another, as opposed to trying and prove the other party wrong?
