672: The Al Franken Story Pisses Me Off



"

Yesterday I went on a tirade over the wall to wall coverage of the various sex scandals hitting the news. It's all partisan, and none of it matters.

Last night while I was trolling the interwebs looking for good stories I ran across the infamous picture of Al Franken "groping." a young actress and model back in 2006.

Up until then, I'd only heard the conservative commentary about the incident on the radio. To listen to them tell it, Franken fondled some poor woman while she was sleeping and had some idiot take pictures of it but the image itself shows a very different story.

When I saw the photo I got angry...really angry and I started doing some research, and it turns out the real tragedy, the real crime wasn't what's shown in the photo but what happened before, and after the incident.

I'll run through the entire story today and give you some perspective you won't get from Main Stream Talk.

671: China is About to Implode. Here's Why that Matters to You



"

You've got to go way back into the archives to find the last time we talked about the Australian economy but thanks to an incredible article by a guy named Matt Barrie we're going to talk about it today.

I highly suggest you read the entire article. It can be found at:
https://medium.com/@matt_11659/matt-barrie-australias-economy-is-a-house-of-cards-6877adb3fb2f

I'm only going to cover the first 8-10 pages on the show today, but it's well worth reading the entire thing.

We are on the verge of the most significant economic catastrophes the world has ever seen, and it may very well originate in China.

What does that mean for you? How will it all shake out? We'll discuss everything on the show today.

This is one of those episodes you don't want to miss. It's one you need to share.

See you tomorrow!

The Jason Stapleton Program - 670: Frankin Calls for Social Media Censorship

This is another podcast from one of the many podcasts that I like to listen to. This one is from the Jason Stapleton Program, definately worth a listen!

670: Frankin Calls for Social Media Censorship



"

It should come as no surprise that comedian turned political hack Al Frankin is now advocating for government censorship of social media.

Apparently, he believes social media has gotten too big to be managed by the companies that run the platforms. His solution? The government should decide what gets posted and what doesn't.

Anyone else find it humorous that Frankin thinks government would do a better job of managing social media than the media companies themselves?

***
We're also going to talk Venezuela. They have finally defaulted on their debt, and I want to take time and walk you through everything that's happened over the last decade that's lead to the demise of this once thriving country.

Great show today! Share it with a friend!

The Jason Stapleton Program - 666: Tackling Gun Violence in America

666: Tackling Gun Violence in America



"

It seems like the last few months have been a blur. I've been traveling so much the show has had to take a back seat to other responsibilities.

That sucks because this show has always been a passion project for me and the passion is still there. But I've got some good news...

First, it would appear, at least for the rest of the month, I'm going to be behind the mic every day. It's back to the old routine, and that's going to feel good.

Second, As I look into next year, I've decided I want to make the show my primary focus. For three years I've done the show part-time as a labor of love, but if this show is ever going to have the impact, I want it's going to take a full-time effort.

Right now I'm working with advertisers and partners to help make this possible, and I could not be more excited. A move to a full-time show means not only do you get the show, five days a week, but it also means I'll have time for all the little things you've been asking for like short video clips, in-depth interviews, and live events. I may even hit a speaking event or two. :)

The bottom line is this; I just want to say thank you for your patience and commitment to this show and the ideas we promote. I know it might seem like my commitment has wained in the last few months but nothing could be further from the truth. I want to blow this show up into one of the most significant political and economic voices in America, and I could not do it without you.

Now, how about some news!
*****

Since I've been gone, I haven't had the chance to comment on the recent shooting in Texas. I've been watching a lot of coverage, and for some reason, the media wants to focus on bump stock legislation and mental health screenings.

You've got voices with varying political and social interests trying to spin the shooting to fit their agenda, and I don't feel like there are very many people having an honest discussion about gun violence and how we fix it.

So today I'll spend a chunk of the show giving you my thoughts on guns, background checks, mental health and how we solve the explosion in violence we see, not just here in America but around the world.

665: Johnny Adams Talks to Jason About his New Liberty Force Comic

You likely know him as Johnny Rocket from The Johnny Rocket Launchpad. I know him as my friend Johnny Adams, and I wanted to have him on the show to talk about a new passion project he's been working on.

It's called Liberty Force, and it's a comic book that teaches some ideas about liberty to anyone willing to give it a read.

Johnny wrote and designed the entire comic, and it's designed for all ages. Check it out at http://www.LibertyForcecomic.com and buy a couple for yourself, your kids and a friend!

663: Shane Hazel Joins Jason to Talk about his Run for Congress



"

One of the things I wanted to start doing into next year was interviewing potential senators, and congressmen who I thought would do a better job promoting liberty than the man or woman currently holding office.

As some of you know, I'm back out in California this week finishing the shoot for the History channel, and I thought I'd do an interview series with some people who are doing some interesting stuff in the liberty space.

I'm kicking off this series with Shane Hazel, an incredible man who's decided to take on the establishment and run against the sitting Republican in Georgia's 7th District.

Running against a Republican AS a Republican is an almost impossible task, but Shane's message of liberty and free markets are winning the day.

Give the show a listen and then head over to http://www.shanehazel.com and throw your support behind his efforts.

The Jason Stapleton Program - 661: The DOD Can Now Spy on Anyone it Wants

This is another podcast from one of the many podcasts that I like to listen to. This one is from the Jason Stapleton Program, definately worth a listen!

661: The DOD Can Now Spy on Anyone it Wants



"

Yeah, it's yet another move toward totalitarianism. An article published on yahoo.com and confirmed by both the Airforce and Department of Defense exposes a change in the government's surveillance of U.S. citizens that now covers "homegrown violent extremists with no specific connection to foreign terrorists.

What's truly scary about this change is the DOD doesn't need a warrant to spy on anyone, and before this change, intelligence agencies like the CIA were only allowed to spy on U.S. citizens when it could demonstrate the individual was working on behalf of a foreign power.

It's one more blow to your privacy and a step toward big brother control.

Will this be used for nefarious purposes? Oh, most certainly but will it be widespread enough to jeopardize your liberty? Probably not but why take the risk?

This is the kind of thing our elected officials are supposed to prevent. Every time I turn around the government is offering to take care of my problems but when it comes time to actually protect me from the most significant threat of all (an overreaching, all-powerful central government) my representatives are asleep at the wheel and incapable of defending my liberty.

The Jason Stapleton Program - 660: The Secret White Privilege Hidden in Algebra and Geometry

This is another podcast from one of the many podcasts that I like to listen to. This one is from the Jason Stapleton Program, definately worth a listen!

660: The Secret White Privilege Hidden in Algebra and Geometry



"

I'm not even kidding. A University of Illinois math professor named Rochelle Gutierrez is claiming algebra and geometry perpetuate white privilege because many of the terms have Greek origins.

Not only is the notion ridiculous it's also not true. I don't have any idea if Rochelle is a math wizard or not but she should probably spend some time studying her history.

Most of the origins of mathematics (as we understand it today) come from the middle east and not Greek or European culture. Many of the terms are Greek, but they're derived from Egyptian or Arabic words.

What is really insulting is the fact that Mrs. Gutierrez doesn't even realize how racist her white privilege comments are. They assume blacks, Asians and Hispanics are not/can not be as good at mathematics as their white counterparts.

It's stories like this that make me nervous about sending my own children to college. The idea that there is a math professor teaching this garbage is destructive to the education these young adults are getting, and it perpetuates the idea that, if you're a person of color, you can't do as well as your white classmates.
