About The Guest: Apollo Slater is a software developer and writer in San Antonio, Texas. He writes on politics, economics, and technology, from a voluntaryist perspective. After working in the technology field for more than a decade, he started his own software consultancy and has developed a number of enterprise and consumer applications. In response to the 2008 financial crisis and the Ron Paul 2012 campaign, Apollo started writing about political topics, such as the ethics of working for the government, using technology to advance a voluntary society, private property rights theory, and many others. Apollo's work can be found at apolloslater.com or on Facebook and Twitter as apolloslater.
About The Host: Johnny “Rocket” Adams is the creator and host of “The Johnny Rocket Launch Pad – Libertarian Rock n’ Roll Experience” and now “BLAST OFF!” He’s also a musician, graphic artist, author, and former Chief Warrant Officer. Johnny spent his early days earning his stripes as a helicopter pilot in the U.S. Army. Back stateside, Johnny immersed himself in the classic works of Murray Rothbard, Henry Hazlitt, and Ludwig von Mises. From there the AnCap known as “Johnny Rocket” was born. Speaking truth to power from your cell phone tower, Johnny digests the philosophy of liberty and brings them to the man on the street on a weekly basis. Johnny Rocket was also the front-man of the rockabilly group “Hot Roddin’ Romeos” and puts pencil to paper with the critically acclaimed comic series “The Liberty Force.” New York Times best-selling author and podcast host Tom Woods calls Johnny Rocket “one of the most entertaining figures in the liberty movement.”
About the Co-Host: Raylene Lightheart is an activist in the libertarian movement. She is a dedicated wife and homeschool mom of five. She is passionate about self-ownership, free association community, and unfettered liberty. Raylene is the director of marking and sales of Launchpad Media Group.
She is the assistant communications director for Libertarian Party of Washington State and also serves as Region 3 alternate. She also is on the board of Libertarian Party of Kitsap County and was awarded the 2018 Porcupine Award for LPWA. As a child, Raylene dreamed of being in broadcasting. When Johnny asked her to be the co-host for his new show, Blast Off! with Johnny Rocket she was thrilled to have the opportunity to advance liberty through education, outreach, and entertainment.
