Guest: Dylan Allman - Breaking Free from Military Indoctrination & RFK Jr. vs. The Uniparty Regime

On this episode of the Free Thought Project Podcast, Jason and Matt sit down with Dylan Allman, a husband, writer, and passionate advocate for liberty. Dylan is a conscientious objector, techno-optimist, and a Hazlitt Apprentice at the Foundation for Economic Education.

We dive into Dylan's compelling journey from joining U.S. Army intelligence to his eye-opening realization about the Military-Industrial Complex while still in service. Despite facing numerous obstacles, Dylan had the courage to file as a conscientious objector and seek an honorable discharge. Dylan and Matt briefly share their experiences as veterans in military intelligence, offering insights into the challenges of breaking free from the system.

The conversation then shifts to Dylan’s work with the AV Super PAC and explores the nuanced and often controversial aspects of Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s presidential campaign. We dissect the ongoing political puppet show between Kamala Harris and Donald Trump, emphasizing how an independent candidate might actually bring about real change—something the establishment clearly fears, as evidenced by their efforts to marginalize such candidates.

As always, we wrap up on a white pill, discussing potential solutions to the chaos looming on the horizon as we approach the 2024 November election. This is an episode you won’t want to miss! (Length: 1:05:50)

Guest: Skot Sheller - Javier Milei: Friend or Foe? A Deep Dive Into His Policies & Politics

On this week's episode of the Free Thought Project Podcast, Jason and Matt sit down with Skot Sheller, a New Hampshire Free State Project advocate with a wealth of knowledge on Argentinian politics, economy, and culture. Skot’s wife hails from Argentina, and his father-in-law is a PhD Austrian economist, academic, and author in the country. Skot has been tracking the rise of Javier Milei since 2018, and he’s here to give us the lowdown on how Milei’s audacious libertarian and anarcho-capitalist stances are shaking things up.

During this episode, we dive deep into all things Javier Milei. Jason and Matt don’t hold back, throwing some tough, no-holds-barred questions at Skot about the real contradictions in Milei's approach—like how he advocates ending the state while using state mechanisms and coercion to achieve his goals. We also get into Milei’s involvement with the WEF and debunk some of the wilder conspiracy theories surrounding his political journey. The conversation explores the tightrope Milei walks as a libertarian anarcho-capitalist in a world dominated by statists.

Skot does an outstanding job addressing our challenging questions, providing well-informed counterpoints that will leave our listeners with a deeper understanding of the complexities and controversies surrounding Milei.

Guest: Ryan Cristián - Dismantling The Trump Assassination & Israel False Narrative From All Angles

On this week's episode of the Free Thought Project Podcast, Jason and Matt sit down with Ryan Cristián from The Last American Vagabond. 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.

Because Cristián does not toe the establishment line, this has put a target on his organization's back, and TLAV has been the subject of widespread censorship, demonetization, and slanderous fact checks.

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.

Join us for a thought-provoking and deeply insightful conversation with Ryan Cristián, as we peel back the layers of deception and strive to uncover the truth. (Length: 1:06:15)

Ian gained national attention for his defiant stand against the state's COVID-19 restrictions, keeping his gym open despite the draconian mandates.

During the podcast, Ian shares his harrowing battle against the state, highlighting the hypocrisy of politicians who blatantly disregarded their own rules. Ian provides a unique perspective on why these leaders acted with such impunity—to show that they are a higher class, not subject to the same rules as the rest of us.

We discuss other business owners who faced similar closures and even imprisonment, and the local support they received, including instances of armed defense.

In a broader context, we explore the contentious issue of advocating for peace between Israel and Palestine. Ian points out the alarming trend of labeling anyone who speaks against bombing innocent civilians as an anti-semite.

As always, we end on a positive note.

With a rich background in e-commerce, healthcare, blockchain, AI, and clean technology, and recognitions from major news outlets like Forbes, The Wall Street Journal, and Fox News, Aaron brings a wealth of knowledge and insights. He discusses the looming threats posed by Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs) and the broader implications of digital monetary control.
