BE BOLD with BOULDEN

FROM THE ARCHIVES: (I'm currently moving all my previous network shows to my own hosted service to help people find my content easier)

This one is from July 13th, 2024. I sat down and talked football (Soccer in America) with Guillermo Hamdan Zaragoza

Guillermo has gone on to continued success since this interview. He has been Head of Performance at Aletico Nacional (won double titles) in Colombia following our talk here. Then the same position with Pumas UNAM (finished in first place during the regular season) in Liga MX, Mexico, and now over in Hungary with ETO FC Gyor.

For those that want insight into the life of a Football Executive and proven pro, Guillermo is a great listen!

In this episode, Greg Boulden steps outside partisan politics to examine the economic realities facing American families. Rising grocery bills, housing costs, gasoline prices, mounting debt, and stagnant purchasing power have left millions asking the same question: How much longer can this continue?

Using government economic data as a starting point, Greg explores how inflation, government spending, energy policy, immigration, housing, and long-term fiscal decisions have shaped today's economy. Rather than assigning blame to one political party, he challenges listeners to look beyond campaign slogans and demand measurable solutions from those seeking public office.

This conversation isn't about Democrats versus Republicans. It's about whether America can restore affordability, opportunity, and the promise that hard work should still lead to a better future.

If voters want different results, Greg argues, they must start asking different questions.

Be Bold.

Boulden & Michaels welcomes back internationally renowned author, researcher, and stand-up philosopher Dr. Joseph P. Farrell for another wide-ranging quarterly conversation.In this thought-provoking interview, Dr. Farrell joins Greg Boulden and Chris Michaels to examine some of the most controversial and challenging topics shaping today's world. The discussion explores geopolitics, the future of global finance, tokenization of assets, technological control systems, consciousness, theology, plasma intelligence, the nature of the soul, ancient knowledge, disclosure narratives, and humanity's place in a much larger cosmic framework.As always, Dr. Farrell brings his unique blend of historical analysis, theological insight, and unconventional research to questions that few mainstream conversations are willing to address.Topics Include:• U.S. foreign policy and the Middle East• The future of digital currency and tokenized assets• Global financial systems and technocracy• Consciousness, death, and the nature of personhood• Plasma life and the "Demon in the Ekur" hypothesis• Ancient civilizations and hidden history• Disclosure narratives, UFOs, and spiritual realities• Theology, philosophy, and the cosmic role of humanity• Wilhelm Reich, orgone energy, and frontier scienceAbout Dr. Joseph P. Farrell:Dr. Joseph P. Farrell holds a Ph.D. in Patristics from the University of Oxford and is the author of numerous books examining hidden history, alternative science, theology, geopolitics, finance, and advanced technologies. His work challenges conventional narratives and encourages deeper investigation into the forces shaping our world.

Chris Michaels and Greg Boulden sit down with returning guest Dr. Joseph P. Farrell to examine the geopolitical, financial, and theological implications of escalating tensions involving Iran, Israel, Russia, China, and the United States.

The discussion explores the timing of recent military actions, the broader impact on BRICS nations, and the possibility that global conflict may be tied to a restructuring of the international financial system, including central bank digital currencies, sovereign wealth funds, and the tokenization of assets. Dr. Farrell outlines a theory that current events are not isolated incidents but part of a longer strategic arc involving reserve currency status, global banking influence, and competing economic blocs.

The conversation also dives into:

• The legacy of the Federalists and Anti Federalists and the constitutional tensions still playing out today
• Free speech, anti Semitism definitions, and First Amendment concerns
• The influence of NGOs, multinational corporations, and non state actors
• The cultural and religious divides shaping modern politics
• Historical parallels to World War I, Woodrow Wilson, and centralized economic control

Throughout the episode, the hosts and guest challenge mainstream narratives, question official accounts, and analyze the philosophical underpinnings of modern power structures.

This is a conversation about division, not as a sudden rupture, but as a slow erosion. We unpack how certainty replaced curiosity, how narratives overtook facts, and how emotional manipulation hardened into tribal loyalty. From the Patriot Act to social media echo chambers, from COVID-era fear to modern media incentives, this episode connects the dots on how good intentions can still lead to damaging outcomes.

We apply these principles to real events, including recent developments in Minnesota and the killing of Alex Pretti. Without rushing to verdicts, we examine what is known, what remains disputed, and why process, restraint, and transparency matter more than labels. The discussion explores both institutional responsibility and citizen responsibility, including a clear-eyed look at what concealed carry actually demands of those who choose to exercise that right.

We also confront double standards in political scrutiny, using immigration enforcement across multiple administrations to show how outrage and accountability often shift depending on who holds power. The episode breaks down how legacy media, social media algorithms, and confirmation bias reinforce these inconsistencies and deepen mistrust.

Finally, we address the question many people are asking quietly: Are we heading toward civil war? The answer is more nuanced than the headlines suggest. While polarization is real and dangerous, the greater threat may be something slower and less visible, the corrosion of trust, standards, and self-restraint.

This episode is not about assigning blame. It is about challenging ourselves before blaming each other. It is a call for consistency, humility, and judgment in a time when outrage is rewarded and reflection feels rare.

If division is the problem, this conversation argues that the solution starts closer to home than most of us would like to admit.

Chris Michaels sits down with national Emmy Award–winning investigative reporter Chris Papst of WBFF Fox 45 Baltimore to confront an uncomfortable truth about public education in America.

For nearly a decade, Papst has led Project Baltimore, an exhaustive investigation into Baltimore City Public Schools — a system with a $1.7 billion annual budget, yet only 10% of students proficient in math and graduation rates that remain stagnant despite massive funding increases. His findings, documented in his bestselling book Failure Factory, reveal a system driven not by student success, but by data manipulation, administrative expansion, and the relentless pursuit of funding.

In this conversation, Papst breaks down:

• How graduation rates can stay high while academic proficiency collapses

• Why hundreds of millions in new funding never reached classrooms

• The quiet explosion of administrative salaries and executive perks

• How discipline data, safety reports, and academic outcomes are manipulated

• The unintended consequences of federal directives on suspensions and arrests

• Why teachers are leaving the profession in record numbers

• How underprepared students are pushed into college debt they may never escape

Papst also explains why Baltimore may represent the end stage of a failing public school system, and why what’s happening there is spreading nationwide. He offers concrete warning signs parents and taxpayers should look for in their own districts — and what real accountability would actually look like.

This is not a partisan conversation. It’s a data-driven, ground-level examination of a system that educates 90% of America’s children — and what happens when it stops prioritizing learning.

If you care about education, taxes, public accountability, or the future of the country, this is a conversation you can’t afford to ignore.

In this micro-dose of a podcast, Greg has a bold take on the breaking news of troops being sent to Greenland, to defend against... the USA.

In this episode of Reclaimed Ground, the hosts return after a brief break to unpack the start of Delaware’s legislative session and the real-world impact of bills already moving through Dover.

The conversation begins with rising energy costs, Delmarva Power bills, and how green energy mandates and grid modernization have contributed to financial strain on families, seniors, and small businesses. The panel discusses legislation that would roll back or reduce green energy mandates, why some bills never make it out of committee, and how committee chairs control what the public ever gets to hear.

From there, the episode walks through several key pieces of legislation, including:

• A proposed constitutional amendment to limit state spending, tying government growth to population and economic growth rather than unchecked expansion

• Bills aimed at tax relief for families, including increased child tax credits

• Legislation addressing school district tax increases following reassessment and efforts to stop automatic 10% increases without demonstrated need

• A proposal to eliminate state taxes on overtime pay, and how taxing overtime punishes productivity

• Concerns over income tax increases on small business owners and how LLCs and pass-through taxation already burden entrepreneurs

The discussion also explores more complex and controversial bills, including:

• Retroactive civil claims for child sexual abuse, weighing justice for victims against due process and precedent

• A state-run diabetes wellness pilot program, questioning government involvement in healthcare and personal medical decisions

• AI and professional title legislation, debating innovation, personal responsibility, and access to information

• Bills affecting immigration enforcement, cooperation with federal agencies, and the balance between compassion, public safety, and constitutional authority

• Proposed “Bills of Rights” for specific groups, including teachers and the homeless, and whether creating special legal classes undermines equal protection under the law

Throughout the episode, the hosts examine how well-intended legislation can produce unintended consequences, how government power expands quietly through spending and regulation, and why transparency, accountability, and constitutional limits matter at the state level.

This episode is a deep dive into what Delaware lawmakers are debating right now, why it matters, and how everyday residents may feel the effects long before they ever see the results.
