The HARD TRUTH, (formerly ”The Launchpad Podcast”) is rooted in personal development until about 1 1/2 years ago when we ushered in the pandemic landscape that has become our ”new normal.” The podcast began to change as Jason recognized the way people communicated with one another did tool. So he wanted to do his best to bridge the gap between both sides and share information that the mainstream sometimes suppresses. This channel champions freedom of speech and expression, a safe space for constructive conversation, and giving people a platform that might not otherwise be given the opportunity. Jason ”J-man” Petrunik has talked to the likes of free thinker, David Icke, politicians Maxime Bernier and Randy Hillier, Stanley Cup Champion Theo Fleury, Grey Cup Champions Randy Spencer and Eddie Brown, Gordie Johnson of Big Sugar, 4 time Juno nominee Jamie Fine and Juno winner Steve Marriner, CCMA award-winning artist Jason Blaine, and 2-time Emmy-award winning sports broadcaster, Lisa Hillary, just to mention a few. It’s honest, fair, informative, intelligent, inclusive, and Jason does his best to bring out the best in his guests, which brings forth the best possible podcast experience, for you.

Postal Worker Spills On Illegal Mandates @ Canada Post!
Wednesday Mar 02, 2022
Wednesday Mar 02, 2022
In #Ontario, #passports have become optional for commercially owned businesses, unfortunately, that's not the same for Federal employees. In fact, many people had no idea, including me, that these #mandates were affecting "our feet on the street" the men and women of the mail force.
Inside I talk with Josy from Posties 4 Freedom, a group to support the mail service industry and those affected by mandates. Topics include her speech @ The Freedom Convoy, the failure of their unions to protect them, there are 4!
Plus the mandates themselves, the hopes of them being reversed, and what adjustments she's had to make as a single mom trying to make it on her own. Find out more about posties @ https://postiesforfreedom.ca/

I had the chance to "hang out" with the fellas @ The Heikadelic Show, and it was awesome! We talked a bit about me, the trucker convoy, the emergency act, mandates, pro-choice, philosophy, and conspiracy. These guys were just so much fun to talk with and the people that watched live loved it as well.

"Take care, be well & love simply because you can"

Tuesday Feb 15, 2022
This is an interesting podcast with Rob Gauthier, "The E.T Whisperer." He's a channeler, who channeled more than 250 E.T's in the Astral. Rob and I discuss higher densities, and ask questions like, what's our soul and where does it go. What do the Astral entities "out there" think about how we're treating one another, down here, and what someone you love might look like in the afterlife.
Rob also shares his insight on how one could learn to channel and how you might be able to identify if you already have some of those abilities activated, which we all have inside.

Fired Covid Nurse Pulls Back The Curtains On Corona!!
Thursday Jan 27, 2022
Thursday Jan 27, 2022
This podcast features former covid nurse, Carla, who was fired for refusing mandates. She literally volunteered to work the covid unit of her hospital when covid first hit and throughout the pandemic, with no vaccine. When vaccines became available, she declined, and in doing so, was ultimately fired when the mandates came down.
Carla shares what it feels like to go from being a celebrated member of the pandemic, a hero, to a zero. The conversations behind closed doors in regards to doctors and treatments that would lessen the symptoms/severity of covid, and the reality of people dying alone, saying goodbye through "zoom" or having to choose between loved ones when it came to who they could have by their bedside.
Carla is a caring, loving person, and to think a hospital would let someone like her go is an incredible loss to the health care system. It scares me to think how many other wonderful people that industry has lost, for absolutely nothing.

Tuesday Jan 11, 2022
Greg Hill is a veteran who served 3 tours in Afghanistan who transitioned into a pilot for a large commercial Canadian airline. He was fired last year for refusing to comply with mandates.
In this podcast, we discuss the manipulation of these mandates, the backlash for opposing them or even asking questions, and how that's affecting pilots' mental health both in the air and on the ground.
This includes physical health as well. Greg, alongside the Canadian Covid Care Alliance, which is comprised of 500 doctors and scientists, submitted well-sourced, peer-reviewed data to the airlines stating their findings of the health risks of this new medicine. You'll be blown away by the response they received....
