    UH 107 - Ethan Frontz, Dennis Heil Ohio Abortion & Recreational Marijuana Now Legal

    It's been a while since we've uploaded an episode. I've been lazy and haven't made time to record episodes. After the November Elections here in Ohio in 2023 I was excited about the results of the election. Issue 1 was to remove the ban on abortion here in Ohio. Issue 2 was to legalize recreational marijuana. Both issues passed and I was definitely shocked that both issues passed.   We of course got off into the weeds as we typically do. We discussed everything from our current entitled society, relationships, bullying all kinds of good things. Hopefully you enjoy the episode as much as we did.     If you want to contact the show you can go to https://www.uncensoredhumanity.com/ and fill out the Contact Us form.

    UH 106 - Andrew Hoffman, Jake Bible American Honesty 18

    Welcome to a special segment of the Uncensored Humanity Podcast we like to call American Honesty. During these shows I will have two co-hosts; Andrew Hoffman and Jake Bible. On the American Honesty segment we like to discuss topics that society has deemed inappropriate. Our goal is to just get our opinions out in the open for a discussion. We believe that the ability to talk about these tough topics is seriously lacking in today's society, as people seem to get offended too easily.   It's been a while since we've recorded an episode of American Honesty as we all got burnt out with politics recently. The three of us got together for dinner and drinks a few weeks ago, as we hadn't seen each other much. We decided to record an episode as long as we didn't talk about politics. So what did we talk about today?? Of course, politics. We started off the show talking about politics and the upcoming presidential election. But then we switched gears and started talking about self discipline and making out lives better. We are all on our own journeys of making our lives better and there was definitely lots to talk about there.   American Honesty is a project that Jake started a couple of years ago. So now using the podcast as our platform we are going to carry on the project that Jake started. Hopefully it will lead to some good conversations that others can enjoy as much as we do.   Jake is one of our regular guests on the podcast as he loves to have these interesting discussions with anyone. Jake is very much involved in local leadership with Medina Leadership. He is one of my co-hosts for the American Honesty segments on the show. He's always wanting to bring people on the podcast so they can share their opinion about the controversial topics we all like to cover.   Andrew is one of my closet friends. I consider him a brother from another mother. Andrew is always excited to record podcasts and he is one of the funniest people I know. He always has some great issues to bring up on the show that makes for great conversation. He has helped to make the show what it is today, both on a off air. He will definitely be on the show for a long time to come.     If you want to contact the show you can go to https://www.uncensoredhumanity.com/ and fill out the Contact Us form. Or email us at uncensoredhumanitypodcast@gmail.com. Feel free to ask a question to any of our regular guests, let us know if you have a topic you want us to cover or just let us know what you think of the episode. We look forward to hearing from you.         © 2018 Uncensored Humanity   Artwork by Kathryn Kidwell Intro music Rover by S Strong – available on Youtube audio library Outro music Whitestick by S Strong – available on Youtube audio library

    UH 105 - Ryan Cohen We Defy Foundation

    Today we have with us my friend and teammate Ryan Cohen. Ryan is a Athlete Engagement Manager for the We Defy Foundation in the Midwest & Rocky Mountain Regions. The We Defy Foundation is a foundation started to help disabled combat veterans get started in Jiu Jitsu all around the United States. We Defy has given out over 600 athlete scholarships, there are over 500 affiliate gyms across 45 states. Ryan got started as an Ambassador with We Defy, he was then moved up to a Mentor position. But he was interested in doing more so they made him the Athlete Engagement Manager. That was a little too much for him to handle alone so now there are two other people helping with different regions.   Ryan went into the Marine Corp after high school. He served for four years and did two combat tours in Iraq during his time in the military. Ryan is passionate about helping other combat veterans thrive in life after the military.   He has an undergrad in business from Akron University and got his MBA while working for Akron Children's Hospital. Ryan was looking for something more as he was struggling mentally with PTSD and moved on to help his father part time in a consulting business to allow him to have more time to get involved with the We Defy Foundation.   If you would like more information about the We Defy Foundation please visit their website.   https://wedefyfoundation.org/   If you want to contact the show you can go to https://www.uncensoredhumanity.com/ and fill out the Contact Us form.

    UH 103 - Dennis Heil Ayahuasca Is Calling To Me

    Today we have back with us my good friend Dennis Heil. I asked Dennis to join me for this very fun and interesting topic and he jumped at the idea. I have been hearing a ton of podcasts recently about psychedelics. Specifically a few about Ayahuasca stood out to me. Ayahuasca is a Shamanic Spiritual Medicine that has been used for tens of thousands of years, if not longer. Ayahuasca is mostly used by the indigenous peoples of the Amazon basin in South America. It is becoming more available to us here in North America as some people begin to strip away their closed mindset against plant medicines. I'm not sure if the universe is trying to tell me something or if I personally am manifesting these topics to head my way. But I'm definitely enjoying the journey so far.   Three different podcasts spoke to me about Ayauasca. Episode 105 of the Endless Endeavor podcast with Tyler Stanaway. Episode 112 of the Endless Endeavor podcast with Tyler Stanaway. Episode 34 of the Shawn Ryan Show with Cody Alford, founder of We Defy the Norm. They all deserve a listen.   Dennis is a former active duty Marine. Dennis is also a firearms instructor with Jeff and Ethan at Instruments of Freedom. He is typically at the shop and is known for talking your ear off if you let him. We always have great conversations and I immensely enjoy when we get the chance to chat for a while.   You can also visit them on Instagram @Instruments_of_Freedom or find them on Facebook at Instruments of Freedom.   If you want to contact the show you can go to https://www.uncensoredhumanity.com/ and fill out the Contact Us form. Or email us at uncensoredhumanitypodcast@gmail.com.

    UH 102 -Ryan Carlson Dealing with Depression

    Today we have our Tech Support Ryan Carlson back on the show. Today we are covering a heavier topic than normal when Ryan is on the show. Instead of talking about technology, like we typically do, we are going to discuss Ryan's battle with depression throughout his life. Ryan has dealt with depression most of his life. With the help of people close to him he has reached out for help and is doing much better dealing with it. A few years ago he had thoughts of suicide. Luckily for us he has worked through those thoughts and issues and is feeling much more hopeful towards his future. Ryan is hopeful that with sharing his story it may be able to help others who may be struggling with depression themselves.   Ryan is very interested in all things technology. He seems to always be up to date on all the new things coming out. He's always listening to podcasts and watching videos to find out where technology is headed. He usually has to explain it to those of us who don't understand how all these things seem to work. I'm sure it gets old for him trying to get things through my thick skull. I tend to be very old school and not up on technology. He's always giving me hell for only using 2-5% of what my phone can actually do. He is the person I go to with any technology question.   Ryan also enjoys brewing his own beer. I don't think he gets to brew as much as he'd like because of his two small children. They seem to keep him pretty busy. But I'm sure we'll end up talking about beer in a future episode.   If you want to contact the show you can go to https://www.uncensoredhumanity.com/ and fill out the Contact Us form.

    UH 101 - Josh Judy, Tyler Aitken Bourbon Taters 1

    Today we have a 2022 New Year's Episode with the Bourbon Taters Josh Judy and Tyler Aitken. The three of us met waiting in line for bourbon and became fast friends. We've known each other for about two years now, but it feels like we've known each other for more like a decade. I wanted to do a new years episode as an excuse to get together and drink with the boyos. I definitely needed some relative rehab after the holidays. Please enjoy our ramblings as we pour some bourbon.   Josh grew up in West Virginia in a small town. He played college baseball at Indiana Tech from 2004 to 2007. He was drafted into the MLB by the Cleveland Indians in 2007 during the 34th round of the draft. The Indians sent him to play in the Gulf Coast League (aka Rookie Ball) for a few years to develop his skills enough to play professional baseball. Josh made his professional debut on May 25th, 2011 against the Cincinnati Reds. Josh has played baseball all over the world including the United States and Mexico. Josh is now retired from the game of baseball after 16 years as a professional in the MLB.   Tyler grew up in Akron Ohio. Tyler enjoys cigars and bourbon. He recently got engaged to his lovely fiance Megan and they look to buy their first house in the near future. Tyler is very close with his family. In his opinion there is nothing more important than family.   If you want to contact the show you can go to https://www.uncensoredhumanity.com/ and fill out the Contact Us form.

    UH 100 - Andrew Hoffman Episode 100

    Welcome to episode 100. It's been 4 years in the making and well worth the journey. For the 100th episode I couldn't think of anyone better to join us than my brother, Mr. Andrew Hoffman. Andrew has been such a huge supporter of the show since before I decided to start this en devour. To being one of the most frequent guest and bouncing ideas off of him for the show. He is a huge part of what makes this show successful and fun for all of us.   Today we got into all kinds of topics as usual with the two of us. Andrew talked about the recent death of his mother. We talked about our own personal futures and how an event like that can shape our view on our own lives. Of course we had to talk about politics. We talked about hallucinogens as well. Those have been bombarding me lately and it's something I don't want to ignore. Perhaps the universe is trying to tell me something. This conversation went by super quick to us recording, hopefully it will feel the same way listing as well.   Andrew is a regular guest on the show and I can't tell you how excited I am to talk about controversial topics with him. These are the types of conversations I look forward to having, both on and off the podcast. Society tells us today that we aren't allowed to talk about these types of topics. But these are the kinds of conversations that need to happen in a safe environment where people can be honest with how they feel about things without fear of ridicule from others. That is what we will do our best to do on this segment of the podcast.   Andrew is one of my closet friends. I consider him a brother from another mother. Andrew is always excited to record podcasts and he is one of the funniest people I know. He always has some great issues to bring up on the show that makes for great conversation. He has helped to make the show what it is today, both on and off air. He will definitely be on the show for a long time to come.   If you want to contact the show you can go to https://www.uncensoredhumanity.com/ and fill out the Contact Us form.
