    #25 - Senator Ed Reilly

    Former State Senator Explains Gerrymandering, Power, and Why Politics Is Broken. In this long-form conversation, former Maryland State Senator Ed Riley pulls back the curtain on how American politics really works — from gerrymandering and redistricting, to campaign finance, party loyalty, and why dissent is punished inside the two-party system. Drawing from 20 years in public office, Riley explains how districts are packed and cracked, why the Supreme Court allows political gerrymandering, and how census counts — not voters — determine representation. The discussion expands into corruption, money in politics, career politicians, and why transparency is often resisted by both parties. We also dive into Trump, Venezuela, oil geopolitics, China, free speech, civil unrest vs civil war, and whether America’s system of checks and balances is still working. This is an unfiltered, honest conversation about power, incentives, and why many voters feel disconnected from the political process. If you’re frustrated with politics — or trying to understand how we got here — this episode is for you. #Politics #Gerrymandering #PoliticalPodcast #USPolitics #TwoPartySystem #Corruption #Redistricting #FreeSpeech #CurrentEvents #LongFormPodcast #AmericanPolitics #CivicEngagement

    #24 - Gina Gordon

    In this raw, honest, and wide-ranging conversation, we dive deep into why so many people feel disconnected from modern systems — from Big Pharma and vaccine trials to government food policies, corporate capitalism, and the loss of trust in institutions meant to protect us. We talk openly about:Vaccine trials and people harmed by medical decisions. Why “rare cases” still matterRFK Jr., independent politics, and why his message resonated. Big Pharma, shareholder capitalism, and moral responsibility. Government food programs, dairy surpluses, and school lunches. Raw milk, soil health, homesteading, and knowing where your food comes from. Listening to your body instead of blindly trusting authority. Community, faith, and what living a good life actually means. #BigPharma #RFKJr #AlternativeHealth #FoodFreedom #PodcastClips #RawMilk #GovernmentFood #MedicalFreedom #IndependentThinking #LongFormPodcast #TruthConversations #HealthPodcast #PoliticsPodcast #Homesteading #Spirituality
