Besides The Revolution,

In today's episode of Besides The Revolution, we talk with author Mary Haverstick about her book  “A Woman I Know."  What started out as an exploration of the first female astronaut took Mary down a path of Cold War espionage, a murder in Dallas of the president, and the double life of one of the people who were in Dealey Plaza that day. Tune in - It's a good one

We talk about a lot of things on today’s podcast. It wanders through a lot of topics, including the war in Ukraine and Israel, AI and misinformation, and the role that the citizen has in deciphering all of the different sources of information in order to have rational conversations. It’s another deep thinking one - enjoy.

I had the chance to interview Independent Congressional candidate Jon Thorp. He and I have had numerous discussions over the past few weeks about why he is running and what he thinks about American politics, economics, and Washington. This is a great conversation, and I think Jon has a lot of very good ideas that could make Washington work better.

There is almost no doubt at this point that the government, via the intelligence agencies, was a main player in the assassinations of both JFK and RFK. What the latest releases of files say is filled with evidence of that reality. While the Wall Street Journal and New York Times want to portray all of it as a giant nothing of a story, the real researchers and people who have spent their lives look...

In this week’s podcast, Jack and I spent our time talking about war and the fallout from the last two weeks; I, the skeptical American, and Jack the tuned-in Brit. It is a great discussion about what happened and how Jack was right about the entire episode, and how I reserve judgment to be right in the future. (I have seen the Mission Accomplished banner before.) We’d love to get your thoughts on...

Join us for another podcast episode of Besides The Revolution. In today’s episode Jack and I discuss a multitude of things including the JFK files and the underwhelming feeling it gives the public, even though it should be shocking that the CIA killed a president in broad daylight. We also discuss Russia and Europe and the endless fetish for war. Finally, we give grades to the Trump Administration...

You won’t want to miss today’s long-overdue episode of Besides The Revolution podcast. Jack and I are back, and we have a lot to discuss. We have a special guest on to discuss the ethics of AI, and we also get into the Mean Girls fight between Elon and Trump. Enjoy the show!

Jack and I discuss a wide variety of topics, as usual. We are back with another podcast about Jack’s visit to CPAC. Many interesting and newsworthy things came from his time there, but also a fascinating look at the future of politics in America. We ask some hard questions about the value of the Constitution in a techno-managed world, as well as a discussion on secession and federalism. All of our...

In this episode, we discuss RFK Jr.'s confirmation hearings, the death of Marianne Faithful and have author Matthew Lysiak visit about his profound book, Fiat Food. Another great conversation.

A wide range of topics today on Besides The Revolution. We talk about the consequences of utopian government voting and how Facebook's founder is on a PR tour to make sure he's not forgotten in a fast-changing social media world.

With the discussions on X bringing light to this awful subject, we spent today discussing it from Jack's perspective. He was a first-hand witness - and became radicalized - because of it. It is a heavy episode with some dark topics, but it is worth understanding the real-world pain that the ignoring by government has created.

The world is shifting faster than we imagine. AI is here to stay and we will have to choose how we deal with it. Jack and I discuss the challenges ahead as well as the lack of human emphasis on its design.

In this week's episode, we discuss the future of independent journalism with Anna Matson. Anna was an incredible voice during the RFK Jr. campaign and has used her talents to carve out truthful discussions about the narratives and falsehoods that are often presented in the mainstream media.

Jack and I are back with a new format and video too. We are excited to bring you weekly conversations about politics, culture, history and a multitude of other things. In this episode we discuss our new Substack and how to join in with us on the journey of independent journalism and analysis. We hope you will find Besides The Revolution, a great place to get long form analysis on the news and cult...

Jack and I are back with a special, pre-election day conversation about what is coming down the road on Tuesday. We give our predictions as well as a recap of all that happened throughout the Kennedy campaign.

This was intended originally to be an interview for a special video project, but as the conversation went on, we felt it was important to let the entire conversation play out somewhere for people to hear. Mike is an amazing patriot who has served his country in one of the most difficult times in our history. The number of deployments he took during our efforts in the Middle East is stunning and we...

Jack and I discuss the wildest week to date in the 2024 Election. Between the assassination attempt on the life of President Trump, to the RNC convention and rumors of Joe Biden stepping down, we talk about the ever changing landscape and the emotions that come with such a historic event. It seems ever more apparent that RFK jr. is a necessary voice in a very vitriolic time.

Jack and I are back talking about the debate from last week, the continuing panic within the Democratic Party over Joe Biden's mental state and his clear cognitive decline. We talk about RFK jr.'s The Real Debate format that he was able to get a lot of traction with despite being excluded from the CNN stage. We also talk about ballot access and the Libertarian Party's decision in Color...

This one has a wide range of conversation going on. It was good to be back with Jack discussing all the things about tonight and the exclusion of Robert Kennedy Jr. from the "debate" or stage show with Biden and Trump. We discuss the first amendment case that the Rock Ribbed Conservative court fumbled all over themselves to torture the words to dismiss by standing - a classic John Robert...

Jack and I are back talking about Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s discussion on the Tim Pool podcast about reparations and black farmers. We discuss how radicalism is engendered by unequal application of the law and how Kennedy is the very best candidate to address this because of his ability to know the law better than the people writing the laws. We also discuss the Libertarian Party convention and...

Jack and I discuss the rise in new media's voice as a result of the dishonesty of mainstream media that has become more propaganda than it is information. We talk about our "wake up" moments when we found that the trust we had in our governments and our institutions was shaken. It is a wide ranging discussion that covers everything from the Trucker Convoy to JFK to 9/11. Enjoy this w...

Jack and I have guest Jeff Dornik on the show today and we discuss a wide range of topics including why RFK might be a better candidate for making America great and social issues like Abortion. It is a wide ranging show again as always and Jeff makes great points about why MAGA needs to address the shortcomings of President Trump instead of defending it for the sake of the personality.

A wide ranging discussion about the Spoiler pledge that RFK announced last week in his press conference in New York, Tulsi Gabbard and her seemingly change of heart towards Trump and the newest American Values advertisement, Who Is Bobby Kennedy. Take a listen as Jack and Aaron break down all of the wild turns in a given week in the campaign.

Jack and I discuss a recent post by American Values on the 6 things that would happen in a Robert F. Kennedy Jr. presidency on day 1. We also cover the messaging to the traditional political crowd, Texas as the next state with Mr. Kennedy on the ballot, and the darker side of politics with some of RFK jr.'s family endorsing President Biden. As always it's a wide ranging conversation with p...

A great discussion on Ron DeSantis and RFK jr. and how the primary elimination of Gov. DeSantis should have his former supporters taking an honest look at the Robert F. Kennedy Jr. campaign. Our guest is Chris Nelson from Florida - it's a wide ranging discussion and one we can all take some wisdom from as we look for the next president of the United States.
