I am not talking about CoVid Wave Two or any bullshit that might come with it.  Nope I am talking about what TSP will be all about for the rest of the year.  I am now only a few days away from my once a year vacation.  I will be spending two full weeks on the beach with my wife.  Recently a family member asked Dorothy, what do you two do for that long on the beach. Her response was epic and just one of the reasons I love her, it was, “nothing”.  Ha! She followed up with “Well really … Continue reading →

Today’s show was chosen by open suggestions from the TSP Facebook Forum, the person suggesting it put it this way. Disconnecting from the political/media insanity. You did a show a while back reiterating circle of concern, etc… recent news has brought tons of your listeners back into the psychotic loop of following politics and corporate news, getting angry, following more, etc… like it really is the most important thing to their personal well being (which couldn’t be further from the truth). This resonated with me a great deal.  Here is why, I can tell you the two stories that will … Continue reading →

Just a week ago I was inspired by the awesome Curtis Stone to reply to one of his videos and an idea formed.  What if a group of podcasters dedicated to liberty in every meaningful way from permaculture, to education reform, to well, everything came together to tackle the big problems in a new way. Rather then telling you what solutions we think you should use, we simply discuss them, in a way designed to teach people not only what can be done but how to discuss big ideas with total respect for everyone one in the conversation, focusing on … Continue reading →

I want to talk about a new initiative I am working on today in bringing together sort of a podcast mastermind group.  Then I want to prime that by giving my potential solutions for the current flawed system of so called “public” education. There is no doubt that the modern education system is in trouble, in decline and headed off the rails.  Part of me is very excited about this, there is another part of me though that understands a fundamental truth. The death of any system is a death of a mechanism of control, so its death will create … Continue reading →

Curtis Stone and I discuss a variety of subjects today all involving achieving as much liberty in your life as you possibly can.  This includes why Curtis has moved on from commercial farming, his new podcast called Liberty on the Land.  Using law to avoid compliance with other laws,  Setting up trusts and more. We also discuss the continued erosion of quality of life in the cities and the lunacy of the “social justice” crowd.  We talk about strategic relocation, the scale of permanence and lifestyle design. We then dig into potential solutions to many of the current problems like … Continue reading →

Last week I discussed a YouTube video called “The Tool Box Fallacy” (a video by Passion of the Nerd on YouTube) and I challenged you guys to state a life goal that you have been holding back on due to this fallacy.  So far six audience members have written in and told me the goal they had and the metaphorical needed tool box that was holding them back and stated their intention to just get it done. Well 6 people willing to step up is enough for me so today we are digging into this at a deeper level. The … Continue reading →

Does the question, what if everyone did what they most want to do, give you visions of the scary kind of dark T.V. anarchy?  Okay so if it does let me ask you a second questions, why?  What reason do you have for believing that most people want to go nuts with a chain saw and murder people or set the cities on fire?  Why do you think that way?  Does it really make any logical sense? Put another way, if I told you right now that you could do anything you wanted are you going to start pushing old … Continue reading →

Episode-2458- Dropping the Denominator

Have you ever heard the phrase, “the lowest common denominator”.  While this is an actual mathematical principle it has also become a colloquialism meaning to cater to the lowest preforming member of a given group. Today that group is the people of the United States and the performance metrics are basic intelligence, critical thinking and the ability to use logic and reason. In essence a better title for this show may be “lowering the common denominator” with the sub title of “the dumbing down of America”, but I simply feel dropping the denominator sounds better and requires more thought, and … Continue reading →

Episode-2433- Understanding Systemic vs. Natural Capitalism

I had to think a bit about the title of today’s show.  It was spawned by this quite anti capitalist article at The Exiled.  Let me say I feel the author Yasha Levine is coming at things from a leftist anarcho position, however the article is absolutely accurate in its telling of history.  The upshot, capitalism is bad!  And yet I am a self described “anarcho capitalist”.  So is capitalism bad, or is it good?  As always, it depends! This led me to the distinction between a system of capitalism (in general statism in the form of modern fascism) and … Continue reading →

Before we get deep into today’s topic I am going to go a bit deeper with some planned changes in the show’s format.  Don’t worry TSP isn’t changing per se just some changes in the schedule, format, etc. to keep stuff fresh. Then I want to discuss the subject of personal responsibility in the world today.  I was recently asked by a guest if I really believed the quote buy Permaculturist Geoff Lawton… “All the worlds problems can be solved in a garden.” My response was, absolutely, but you need personal responsibility as well.  The response came back, “Personal responsibility … Continue reading →
