Leave Behind the Illusions [SFP072] is my latest episode in the YouTube relaunch. It’s a reflection on freedom, authenticity, and rejecting the traps of illusion. Give it a watch and a share if it resonates 🙏

When I first started my podcast, I always thought "making it" would be based not on how many listeners I got, but the quality of guests I had the joy of speaking to. My (now 2) convos with Godfrey Bloom have been huge highlights. The first is now on YT.

A little ramble about wealth, theft, the war we're in, and how to fight it... 👇 Everyone's looking for a way to "get ahead" when everything's getting more expensive and the state keeps taking more and more of your money without giving back. All that's happening is that the rentseekers have found ever more elaborate ways to steal form you, but you haven't reacted. That's it. If someone keeps stealing your bike, you get a lock. If someone keeps stealing your car, you put it in a garage. But when it comes to money, the theft is more obscure. They're not actually stealing from you physically, they're just diluting you down at an ever accelerating rate, so that your value is eroded relative to the new supply. So the simple answer is that you have to take everything you own, and get it out of the purview of the thiefs. Property is not the answer, because it's a sitting duck. If they can't take the property itself (which, if you have a mortgage like most people do), then they'll just tax it like they do your income. Gold is one answer, but good luck escaping with it outside of your national borders if and when the state goes rogue. And even more luck trading it when the denominations of gold and silver don't match the value of what you want to buy. Bitcoin is another answer, and it solves for both of these problems. It uses the power of maths and extremely large numbers rather than the power of shiny metals. "But what if they turn off the internet"? Well if they turn off the internet then that's the end of Agenda 2030. So your optimism in the defeat of the current onslaught on our freedoms is noted. But realistically that's not going to happen. It's exponentially more likely that they bring in travel restrictions or confiscate your gold at the airport (hello, executive Order 6102...) than they turn off the internet or bring in a global blackout. Besides, even if they DO turn off the internet. This would have to be done globally to stop bitcoin blocks from propagating and transactions taking place. Meanwhile anyone in a country without the internet could theoretically just transact using the ecash protocol completely offline until the internet resumes. Bitcoin is programmed to withstand any and all of these zero day events. That's why it's by far my preferred asset for protecting your wealth against the thieves. I'm no hater of gold and silver. I own both, and it's infinitely superior to fiat money, but it's physicality quite frankly leaves wide open multiple attack vectors that could get you wrecked. That's just my 2 cents. Ultimately we're all on the same team, and the most important thing is you get as much money as possible outside of the traditional banking system. Getting out of the period we're entering is going to involve being ridiculously adversarial. And that means adopting a fully defensive strategy. We're living in a completely new age now. The rules of the game have been completely thrown out, and governments will bleed you until you're completely broke. But they won't stop there. Once you've fully broke, they will turn you into a weapon of the system. They'll make sure that every action you take is in service of the regime, and every penny you own belongs to them and is only given back to you on a permissioned basis, for the rest of your life. Then any remaining "debt" will probably be given to your children and your grandchildren. That's the kind of scale we're talking about. The global debt situation is so massive at this point that this is what it will take. And the trajectory of society always follows incentives. The incentive right now is that everyone in the world will have to pay back everything that's been stolen from them. Privatised profits, socialised losses. Just like the person who steals your car gets to keep it, while your insurance premium goes up for making a claim - that's also how the global economy works. The billionaires have had their payday over and over, but that was all with fake money that doesn't exist. This is a fantasy world. You don't get something for nothing. What goes up always comes down, and the way it will come back down is a boot stomping on your neck forever. Unless you are strategic. Unless you are brave. And unless you are willing to completely walk away from the rigged chessboard and let their fiat empire crumble without your participation. Escape fiat. Get free. And do it sooner rather than later so you can be one of the ones with the resources to help build the new world. Do it now not for yourself, but so that you can help your family, your friends, and your neighbours. Not everyone has been called to this task. Most people just want to live an ordinary life. They aren't investors. They aren't "conspiracy theorists". They trust people implicitly. They assume that everyone has their morality and that things will all work out. It will not. We are at war. And it's down to us to fight that war by any means necessary and to hopefully create greener pastures in the future for the people we love. This is what keeps me going. We will see the conclusion of the greatest assault on human freedom in the history of the world IN OUR LIFETIME. This goes beyond "protecting your finances". This is a battle of the future of human freedom. We will either enter the beast system and see an end to human liberty, or we'll keep the demons at bay. If we fail then we fail. But at least we'll go out swinging. But I truly believe that collectively we can win this, and we can create the most fair society we've ever seen. And no, I'm not talking about "fair" in some bullshit communist twisting of the concept. I'm talking about equal rules for all. Some will be rich, some will be poor. That's where our own morality comes in. Get right with God. Get rid of your dreams of owning a jet, and replace it with dreams of helping to educate people, helping to feed people, helping to give shelter to the needy. Dreaming about lambos is the old way. Eventually it'll lead to ruin, both personally and on a societal level. And it won't provide the spiritual motivation to get this job done. Love is a far greater motivator than greed. We will win this based on love and compassion, not on greed and selfish ambition. Exit the system, and then become a beacon for others to exit, too. This is the mission. No looking back. Absolute conviction. Lead from the heart. image

Hey Melissa, I’ll try to keep this short, but I have a podcast about freedom (https://linktr.ee/stayingfreepod) and I came across your nostr and found it super interesting/inspiring the life of freedom and travel you’ve been able to achieve. I’m also really interested in the concept of world schooling, and it would be great to talk to someone who’s achieved success there with their kids. All in all I think we could have a really positive conversation about the possibilities available for people to live a life of freedom and adventure if they put their mind to it. If you’re interested in coming on, please pop in a slot on my Calendly: Hope to chat! Jonny

I re-released episode SFP059 with Hrvoje Morić of Geopolitics_Emp on YouTube. If you're new to the pod, go check it out! It's a good time to catch up with the conversations I've been having as I relaunch the YT channel. Episode description: Have you ever felt the digital world tightening its grip, turning convenience into control? I sat down with Hrvoje Morić, the brilliant mind behind Geopolitics & Empire, for another compelling conversation in Puerto Vallarta. We delved deep into the rapid acceleration of the global control system, where digital IDs, AI, and cashless societies are reshaping our reality at light speed. From the chilling implications of AI – not as sentient beings, but as powerful tools for surveillance and societal sifting – to the unsettling normalization of previously unimaginable concepts, we explored the relentless march toward a future often depicted in dystopian fiction. Is this merely progress, or are we witnessing the deliberate deconstruction of our freedoms and the very essence of what it means to be human? We grappled with questions of truth and deception, the subtle creep of totalitarianism, and the critical importance of holding firm to our core beliefs in a world that constantly pressures us to compromise. As the lines between physical and digital blur, and the state's reach expands, what happens when your very existence relies on a system designed to monitor every move? Amidst the "black pilling" realities, we also sought out the "white pills"—the sources of joy, resilience, and hope that sustain us. How do we navigate this accelerating landscape without losing our sovereignty, our sense of self, and our appreciation for the simple, profound truths of life? Link: image

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. image
