Have you ever heard someone use the statement, or some variant of, "Well how come more people aren't talking about it?"Why don't more people expose what's going on in the government and in healthcare and in finance, etc? Easy answer - BECAUSE THEY'RE SCARED! Support The Show paypal.me/survivingthesystem Cashapp : $SurvivingTheSystem Venmo : @SurvivingTheSystem Contact Dave : https://survivingthesy...

If you've never heard the "5 Why's" theory, this is a great show for you. It's a tactic that helps you come to the root cause of an issue, by asking yourself "why" 5 times. The theory goes that by the time you answer the 5th "why," you should be at the root cause of whatever issue you're addressing (or at least close enough). So, I apply this theory to the system! Why? Why not, right? Support The...

I was recently reminded of why I started trying to help individuals in re-entry with their housing challenges. Listen in for more to learn why it's such a big deal!

Why is it that it seems a large segment of the population feels the need to constantly try and point out the things they see as "wrong" with those around them? Have you ever noticed that in your life? It's not everyone, but there are enough out there that I feel the need to address it. The people that feel the need to look down on anyone around them for not being exactly as they think you should b...

Duane Williams was tried and convicted in a case of 2 arson related deaths. However, there is ample evidence to believe he had nothing to do with the fire. I've had a chance to review a report recently done by an independent investigator, and to say that the facts blew my mind would be an understatement. Witness tampering, falsification of evidence, and on and on. If you like true crime stories, c...

I was recently given information from a gentleman inside the NDCS who is trying to get someone, anyone, to listen to his plight. He was recently informed that the facility has decided that the judge was wrong when he passed his sentence, and they were just going to take care of that for him right now. No trial, no "due process," just a letter informing him it was done. Listen in for more details!...

We live in the age of technology. It's everywhere, whether we like it or not. While it does make our lives more efficient and provides opportunites we've never even dreamed of, it comes with a cost. All of these technologies generate frequencies, and non-stop exposure to these frequencies disrupts your body's natural abilities. I'd run down a list of all of the side effects, but here's the thing -...

This will be a bit of a difficult topic again, but we're no strangers to the darkness. I've noticed there seems to be a huge increase in the amount of people that are considering suicide. The cries for help are everywhere, and coming from all directions. I can recognize them myself because I've been through it. This is a bit of my story in the hopes that it reaches the right person that needs to h...

Back in 2019, I was introduced to Dillon, and his Kratom business. In the 4 years since that time, I have been taking Kratom on a daily basis, and I recommend it to everyone I see. The benefits are too long to list here, just trust me when I say there's A LOT! The pharmaceutical companies, and the medical system overall, is trying to bury this supplement. Ever wondered why? If you're struggling wi...

Here's a little bit about my friend Nancy from her "Psychology Today" profile:"I specialize in helping individuals and families on the sex offense registry succeed in re-entry. I fully recognize the difficulties of how stressful this can be for all involved. I am equally passionate about helping anyone effectively reenter after incarceration. No judgment of the past, as we build a positive future....

Pulitzer Prize–winning journalist Bill Keller has spent years examining what is possible if prisons focus on preparing the incarcerated to be good citizens when they return to society, which the overwhelming majority will. In his new book, he shows us how we can reform our prisons and why there’s a reason for cautious optimism. Rehabilitation, he argues, is not only an investment in public safety...

Joining me again today is David Mitchell, who has beaten not one, not two...but 3 felonies in the last 12 months! I can only imagine the level of frustration that the system is experiencing right now as they watch all their efforts fail. Not only did David beat the system, he is gaining national attention and preparing to take them to court and fight back. I absolutely love this story. Check it ou...

I spent a lot of time talking about the chaos and destruction that the system creates all around us. However, just as a rose can grow from concrete, oftentimes that same chaos brings about beauty. Tonight, I bring on my friend Vico to talk about his experience in prison, where he met the love of his life. You heard me right - in prison.

Matthew Melvin is the first time author of the book "Bullied Behind Bars: A Gay Christian Trump Supporter Goes to Prison." If that title doesn't at least catch your attention, then I don't know what would! This book is Matthew's attempt to get his story out to people that may otherwise never hear it. He was incarcerated twice - from 2004 to 2005, and then from 2017-2018. Unfortunately, during his...
