About me
and the show

I live in one of the most liberal, socialist, crazy area’s of the United States. It seems everyday our constitution has been thrown out the window. Our crazy politicians; local and national, have thrown common sense away and are destroying this country and taking our rights and freedoms away. Mainstream media just regurgitates the political propaganda. I started this podcast to combat the lies. I am also a freelance journalist and podcaster for Net News Network. Before this I worked as a firefighter, police officer, and was a supervisor for a 911 center. I spent over 20 years working in public safety. I also owned a private investigation and security business, a bail bonds business and worked as a fugitive recovery agent for 16 years.
