    How One Man Rebuilt After Losing Everything - Including His Sight

    There are stories that remind us just how strong the human spirit can be. After a painful divorce, a devastating motorcycle accident, and a battle with alcoholism, today's guest reached a point where he believed there was no way forward. Following a suicide attempt, he somehow survived. Most people would assume that was the end of the story. It wasn't. Today, Zach Tidwell is an author, motivational speaker, and podcast host using his experiences to encourage others who are struggling to believe that life can still have meaning after unimaginable loss. In this conversation, we discuss trauma, addiction, resilience, healing, purpose, and what it really takes to rebuild a life one step at a time. If you or someone you know is struggling, know that help is available and that recovery is possible. If this conversation speaks to you, please like, subscribe, and share it with someone who may need a reminder that hope can still exist—even in life's darkest moments. ___________________________ Find today's guest, Zach Tidwell, on socials: YouTube - @ZachCTidwell Apple - going-in-blind-with-zach-tidwell Spotify - spotify.com ____________________________ *intro/outro audio: The Plot Thickens by Joshua Spacht Owner: Soundstripe, Inc.

    Secret Covenant: Prophecy? Coincidence? Blueprint? You Decide

    The Secret Covenant is rumored to have been written in 1962, often attributed to the Rockefeller family. There has been no evidence we're aware of that this is a verified document, nor any proof of actual authorship. But maybe we're not asking the right questions. Maybe this document isn't fascinating because it's authentic. Maybe it's so fascinating because it places all the pieces of a broken puzzle so neatly together. Concentrated wealth. Political influence. Media. Technology. Debt. Surveillance. Loss of trust. All very real concerns within the nation of America; even if the document's claimed origin is not. Today on From Dirt We Grow, truth finds it's nuance. Because whether or not the whereabouts of the pages are confirmed, the words within are undeniably echoing real life. This conversation isn't to find the validity of the documents, but to hear the words, find the parallels, and decide for yourself. Was this a prophecy or a blueprint? A complete coincidence or even a fabrication from thin air? What do you believe? ______________________________ SHARE YOUR THOUGHTS.

    How Political Narratives Go Viral

    How can we possibly even begin to understand the other side's perspective if we never see what they're seeing? Today we welcome Howard Polskin, founder of the media site, The Righting - a publication created to help readers stay informed about the conversations taking place across conservative media without requiring them to immerse themselves in it. Rather than asking readers to consume hours of conservative programming, TheRighting provides a curated snapshot of the topics influencing millions of Americans. We discuss why understanding opposing media ecosystems matters, how narratives develop before reaching mainstream attention, what today's media landscape means for political polarization, and whether Americans can bridge divides by first understanding what information each side is consuming. This conversation isn't about telling you what to believe. It's about recognizing that if we want to understand our neighbors—or our politics—we have to understand the information shaping both. Because meaningful conversations don't begin with agreement. They begin with understanding. _____________________________ Find today's guest, Howard Polskin on socials: Website - therighting.com TikTok - @therighting ______________________________ *intro/outro audio: The Plot Thickens by Joshua Spacht Owner: Soundstripe, Inc.

    She Saw America's Failures First Hand - What Is She Doing About It?

    What happens when a teacher becomes a civil rights attorney and then decides to run for Congress? Today we welcome Laura Dunn, a NY-12 congressional candidate whose career has been spent fighting for people both inside the classroom and inside the courtroom. We discuss the state of public education, civil rights, government accountability, economic justice, and why so many Americans feel abandoned by the very institutions meant to serve them. This isn't a conversation about party politics—it's a conversation about the systems that shape our lives and whether meaningful change is still possible. If you've ever wondered why trust in government is declining, why our institutions seem increasingly disconnected from everyday Americans, or what real reform might look like, this episode is for you. ____________________________ SHARE THIS EPISODE NOW !!  Help to get eyes and ears on these suppressed candidates. Don't let our government continue to manipulate the people they're supposed to be advocating for! _____________________________ Find today's guest, Laura Dunn on socials: website - lauradunn4congress.com TikTok - @lauradunn4congress YouTube - @LauraDunn4Congress Instagram - lauradunn4congress ______________________________ *intro/outro audio: The Plot Thickens by Joshua Spacht Owner: Soundstripe, Inc.     #FromDirtWeGrow #Congress #CivilRights #Education #Politics #GovernmentReform #NY12 #Podcast #GrassrootsPolitics #Election2026 #Democracy #PoliticalPodcast

Questions about politics. Questions about corruption. Questions about healthcare. Questions about why so many Americans feel unheard. After countless conversations with candidates, veterans, activists, and everyday people, I still don't have every answer. But I found something I wasn't expecting. In this episode, I share the biggest lessons, hardest truths, and unexpected insights from the journey so far. The conversation is just getting started. ____________________________ *intro/outro audio: The Plot Thickens by Joshua Spacht Owner: Soundstripe, Inc.
