The Liberated Citizen

Greg Stroud

This podcast uses American Liberty, values, and history to provide a lens to understand today’s issues, problems, and challenges. Through this lens, The Liberated Citizen will explore solutions and changes to challenge how you think. Today’s society and government have placed restrictions upon your education and thoughts with a complicit media apparatus (both left and right). Elites or people in power seek to make you ignorant, compliant, and apathetic in order to consolidate power and control. This podcast is about recapturing the essence of American exceptionalism through understanding and critical thinking in order for you to cut the strings and break the chains holding you back from living a life of liberty while pursuing your happiness.

    The Price of Demonization

    Charlie Kirk’s assassination is more than a tragedy — it’s a warning. In this episode of The Liberated Citizen, I deliver a blunt tribute to Charlie’s life, his faith, and his vision for America. We’ll examine the toxic culture of demonization that fueled this climate, why treating speech as violence threatens the Republic, and how Charlie’s belief in redemption offers a way forward. This is a call to action: debate the idea, stop demonizing the person. Speak truth, live with conviction, and honor Charlie’s legacy by carrying his mission forward with courage, compassion, and redemption.

    Securing the Republic

    In every election cycle, accusations of corruption and unethical behavior fly across party lines, eroding public trust in our government. As power shifts, so does the focus on abuses and inefficiencies within our political system. But now, with Republicans holding the Presidency and narrow control of both the House and Senate, we have a rare opportunity to act. It's time to push forward reforms that promote transparency, reinstate meaningful checks and balances, and safeguard the separation of powers envisioned by our Founding Fathers. Join me to discuss ideas to secure our Republic against future tyranny.

    Call of (Civic) Duty

    Happy New Year! Here is a new episode to begin the year. In this episode, I call for Americans to embrace their civic duties and continue their engagement past the election cycles. We need steadfast repetitive support to our elected representatives to stay the course; to enact legislation and initiatives that support liberty, American values, and secure our Constitutional Republic for the future.

    Rhetoric and Violence

    Hello patriots, protestors, and pioneers,  in this episode, we explore the intersection of freedom, responsibility, and the power of critical thought. We’re diving into a topic that’s both timely and essential—the dangerous interplay between rhetoric and violence in our society. In recent weeks, we’ve witnessed an alarming assassination attempt on Donald Trump. This event, while shocking, isn’t isolated but part of a broader pattern where violent rhetoric escalates into physical violence. We will discuss some of the history that brings us here as well as the freedom of speech, limitations, and how we should be using this freedom to better society.

    Societal vs Individual Values

    In this episode, I talk about the differences between societal and individual values (or character). Many people talk about values, but often I find that this means different things to different people and causes confusion. I discussed this in a previous episode and outlined what values I believe society should embrace.  Following this episode, many pushed back and wanted to talk about individual values or what I call character and yes these are important as well. So, I outline what I think are the most important individual values that should aspired to. Join me as we delve into the heart of what it means to be an individual in American society.
