The Impact of Racism on Healthcare Outcomes 23.12.2025

Hello Everyone! Will and I got together last week for an important talk about medical racism. When cruelty is allowed in our medical system, you can believe that it’s going to affect everybody. Will starts out with a chilling story of abuse he endured at a hospital when he was young, and we covered more ground from there. At some point everyone in this country is going to have to wake up and recog...

Peru's Choquequirao Represented the End of a Chapter in My Life 23.12.2025

Hey Everyone! I’m going to try to give you a break from all the hard content since it’s the holiday season. This is one of the various retellings of the trip I took in 2011 to see some famous ruins that are still pretty much untouched. I hope you enjoy it! I was hiking with two Olympic athletes and I was a nobody. My companions were Peru’s first winter Olympian, Roberto Carcelen, and Martin Koukal...

Practicing Accountability Means Demanding That All Politicians Meet a Standard of Integrity 22.12.2025

Hey Everyone! Nick and I had another wonderful talk with an emphasis on accountability. It’s really concerning how little integrity actually plays a role in our political mechanism. There is no question of accountability for openly lawless Republicans, and the only time Democrats seem willing to invoke the concept of accountability is when a progressive starts to gather up political momentum. More...

We Knew the GOP Would Try to Blame Clinton, But How Should We Respond? 22.12.2025

Hello Friends, The first thing I want to say is that we’re in the middle of some extremely difficult times. The Epstein files represent a culmination of an entire system of corruption and abuse. I’m a survivor of various forms of abuse as are many of my readers. Above all else, we have to remember that we are allies and that if we start to fight among ourselves then we’re allowing the abusers to w...

How to Prepare for Censorship by Establishing Yourself on Various Platforms 21.12.2025

Hello Everyone! I came to Substack by way of Medium. My first posts on this platform were tutorials about how to use Medium. I published those posts here because Medium isn’t particularly interested in “craft of Medium” type articles. For the first year, I had a lot more visibility on Medium than on Substack. Then Substack started to give me a better month every now and then. Today, I’m seen a lot...

How to Dismantle All Authoritarian Power Structures and Create an Ideal Society 20.12.2025

Hello Folks! I’m still in the middle of my holiday scramble, so I’m more than a full week behind in scheduling this live. My good friend Robert Danna told me to get some rest over the holidays and that’s what I intend to do. To be honest, 2025 has been just a deluge of work. This isn’t “work to get rich” kind of work. It’s “work to stop the suffering of humanity” type of work, and there’s a LOT of...

Which Actors Are Most Overrated in Hollywood and Other Silliness--Escapist Delights 19.12.2025

Hey Everybody! I’ve been overdoing it with lives the last few weeks so that I’ll have content to post over the holidays. That way you won’t start to miss me 😊. My kids are off from school starting today, and that just accelerates the time until Christmas. Everybody’s getting homemade gifts this year. I’m always delight to talk to Murphy ! He’s got a kind perspective, a great sense of humor, and a...

A Vote For Hate Is a Vote For Death 19.12.2025

A day of accountability is coming. It could have been directed at the nepo baby orange post turtle with ties to child rapists. Collectively, as a nation, we could have made the decision to make him answer for his crimes. Instead, this corrupt society let him wriggle off the hook. But somebody still has to pay, so it looks like it’s going to be the rest of us. Yup. That’s how this works. A debt has...

What America Needs Is More Mothers in Political Office 18.12.2025

Hello Everyone! I had the opportunity to sit down with Liuba Grechen Shirley who is the founder and CEO of Vote Mama Foundation . It’s an organization that helps mothers win political office which is exactly what we need. The simple reality of our society is that we don’t have fair representation. The result of that is too many politicians making decisions on things they know nothing about. We all...

I’ll Only Vote for Democrats Who Are Actively Anti-Racist 18.12.2025

We’ve all experienced injustice. We’ve all endured treatment that wasn’t charitable, kind, or fair. It’s not hard to find agreement that malicious behavior exists. What many people fail to understand is how marginalized groups are subjected to that kind of abuse as part of their daily existence. It’s inappropriate to say, “Ignore it.” Perhaps that seems reasonable for people who live in mansions w...

Misogyny, Gatekeepers, and the War on Kindness 17.12.2025

Hello Everyone! My conversations with Will always represent the turning point of the week. After Wednesday, I pivot to movies with Ben Ulansey and then the Friday rant with Shane Yirak and Arturo Dominguez . 2025 has been an exhausting year. I’m ready for it to be over, but I appreciate how much I’ve learned and all the good people I’ve met. I finally had an opportunity to sit down with Cryn Johan...

How Evil People Are Desperate to Escape the Thunderous Echo of Their Insignificance 17.12.2025

Let’s bring it back to basics. Good people build. Evil people destroy. It’s as simple as that. The reason evil people can only destroy is because they don’t have any skills. They spend too much time guffawing like donkeys to learn anything. They’re the bullies who sit in the back of the classroom throwing spit wads and setting their textbooks on fire. They mock the kids who demonstrate ethics and...

Our Society Allows Child Rapists to Walk Free and it Places an Impossible Burden on the Innocent 16.12.2025

Hello Friends, I can’t believe it’s already been a week since this conversation. I’m scheduled to again chat with Nick Paro later today. In this episode we had a chance to sit down with Robert Danna whom I’ve come to really appreciate here on Substack. I’ve been reflecting a lot on this talk. In it, I discuss an incident a few years ago where I was part of a search party that found the body of a r...

Don't Be So Distracted by the Corruption That You Miss the Bigger Problem 16.12.2025

This morning as I was scrolling through the news, I noticed how every story felt like a distraction. All the headlines were the same, “Breaking news” or “Holy s**t!” followed by yet another tale of corruption. I kept passing my thumb across the screen and it was the same thing over and over and over. Corruption! Corruption! Corruption! It almost made me want to stop and laugh at the futility of it...

James Carville Costs Democrats Votes Every Time He Opens His Entitled, Obnoxious, Ignorant Mouth 15.12.2025

Hello Friends, James Carville recently went after Jasmine Crockett and his comments left me enraged. Here’s a guy that’s so out of touch that he thinks he has to use his platform to bash rising democrats. Read the room a*****e, that’s not what we need right now. Couldn’t Mr. “resting skeleton face” find any fascists to criticize this morning? Don’t get me wrong, I’m not criticizing the way he look...
