Ep13. Hello 2024 - Ready or not!

Wed, 31 Jan 2024 16:00:00 -0600

Today Dan and I did some much needed catching up after having made it through the holidays. I give a shout out to my old 1138th En Co battle buddies, as Jan31 is the anniversary of a tragic ambush we dealt with 16 years ago. We talk about the election year and all the trappings involved in what is sure to be a real mess.

ultimately we set the stage for a great year. Thanks for joining us on this journey!

Today we present a fun and easy listening episode. A bit of an update episode where we consolidate our efforts, plans, and goals moving forward.

how do we Make America Great Again? We Making America 50 States Again!

Ep10. Where to put all this power?! w/ Josh Turkewitz

Sat, 04 Nov 2023 15:00:00 -0600

This Episode of the compass explores our new favorite slogan: "Make America 50 States again". As the ShowMe state, we are most interested in a bottom up model of governance where the federal layer responds to the will of the states. We get to provide our methods over time and encourage other states to adopt our ideas based on merit.

ultimately we don't solve any of the major problems facing humanity during this conversation, though we take a very small step towards it every time we (in good faith) try. Thanks to everyone for listening. Please send feedback! request topics, deep dive, or anything.

Ep9. the modern psychedelic movement w/ Eapen Thampy

Fri, 06 Oct 2023 19:00:00 -0600

Today Dan and I were able to catch up with Eapen Thampy, a lobbyist here in Missouri who is doing incredible work focused around saving lives. We do a deep dive into psychedelics, psychedelic assisted therapy, PTSD, and why the time is right for a revolution in American mental health treatment.
(this was recorded live. the video is on the Missouri Lion YouTube channel.)

Ep8. The long march to digital financial freedom

Sun, 01 Oct 2023 15:00:00 -0600

In this conversation, Dan and I take a crack at unraveling the ball of yarn that is "Crypto". I am very happy with the result, though, what we need from here are another round of questions and a future episode focused on making the path forward seem more obvious clear and necessary.

Ep7. MAKE AMERICA 50 STATES AGAIN

Tue, 19 Sep 2023 08:00:00 -0600

IMO best episode to date! We discuss 5th generational warfare. I experience the Mandela Effect live on air and recalibrate my understanding of the difference between the terms "lobster effect" and "frog effect".

Along the way we reveal our new slogan "Make American 50 States again", and discuss the what, when, who, why, and how's of the concept.

Audience interaction is something we are really interested in, and looking forward to scaling. thanks so much to all of our early supporters!

Ep6. Post-IBJJF Masters Worlds2023 w/ James Williamson

Thu, 07 Sep 2023 07:00:00 -0600

Here we have the full post-competition episode with Dan Berlemann, myself, and James Williamson who got 2nd in his bracket at the tourney. This should be a real treat especially for anyone who is thinking about competing, or who currently competes locally. We discuss everything we feel like we did right and wrong; including how we go about dealing with all the different aspects of the sport. From things we have complete control of, all the way to some things totally outside of anyones control.

Wed, 30 Aug 2023 08:00:00 -0600

On this episode of The Compass: Ty Loethen and I expand on freedom, entrepreneurship, and living each of our lives in our own vision. We catch up from his initial episode on The Missouri Line, promote everything we are currently up to, and shed light on our plans for the future.

Ep2. Orienting against kayfabe w/ Dan B.

Wed, 30 Aug 2023 08:00:00 -0600

As we get the ball rolling here with The Compass: my good friend and training partner Dan Berlemann helps me unpack a bit about the term kayfabe, why we must reject it without abandoning order and tradition along the way.

thank you for joining us on this journey! please feel free to reach out and suggest topics to cover, guests to have on, or just even to simply troll for the lolz.
