  • How to find success in Life and in Business with David Marinac CHPodcast Ep 28

    David is the owner and CEO of ABC Packaging Direct and you can find more about his company's products at:

    https://www.standuppouches.net/blog/author/david-marinac 

    David and I talk about marketing, sales and motivation in the modern age.

    David is an extremely positive guy who has a lot of great information to share about finding success in life and in business. 

    Books mentioned: 

    David during the show recommended the book "Psychocybernetics"  and I’m re-listening to the audio version. The book isn't about cyborgs it's instead about practical ways we can use the mental machinery we have to live better lives. Dr. Maltz the creator of psychocybernetics writes about how your self image really determines your actions and only by changing how you view yourself will you be able to change your life. I highly recommend the book.

    https://www.amazon.com/New-Psycho-Cybernetics-Maxwell-Maltz/dp/0735202850

    The book I mentioned and also found extremely valuable is Dr. Jordan Peterson’s book:

    https://www.amazon.com/12-Rules-Life-Antidote-Chaos/dp/0345816021 

    Correction: During the podcast I mentioned the Book “Self Help” and the author was Samuel Smiles and it was written in 1859. You can read it here for free. It is one of the original self help books and like David spoke about during our conversation the old ideas are making a come back.

  • Legislation, Education and Liberty with Connor Boyack CHPodcast Ep. 27

    Connor Boyack  is the president of the Libertas Institute, a Free Market Think tank in Utah and he's also the author of the children’s book series “The Tuttle Twins”, which teaches kids the fundamentals of freedom. 

    We have a great discussion about the work that the Libertas Institute  is doing,  their recent victory helping to legalize Medical Marijuana in Utah, and how others can learn from their successes. 

    Connor explains  the principles behind his work, how he found the ideas of freedom, and  why he decided to write “The Tuttel Twins” series of children books which are all based upon classic works of freedom. 

    https://libertasutah.org 

    https://tuttletwins.com

    We also talk about the pros and cons of getting involved in politics as a libertarian, how education is a key to helping others see the value of freedom and why persuasion and not force is  the only correct means of securing personal liberty for all. 

    I exercise my personal freedom by consuming Kratom. Kratom is a natural plant supplement which i use to help manage my chronic pain.

  • Peaceful Anarchy in Action with Austrian Economist Peter C Earle CHPodcast Ep. 26

    Peter C. Earle  is a former trader and global financial analyst on Wall Street, an Austrian Economist, and Research Fellow at the American Institute for Economic Research 

    He is also the author of the book "A Century of Anarchy: Neutral Moresnet - Through The Revisionist Lens" (it's a short book but its vital for everyone who cares about the cause of liberty and the E-book versison - which I purchased - is currnetly only $2.99 on Amazon!)

    https://www.amazon.com/Century-Anarchy-Neutral-Moresnet-Revisionist-ebook/dp/B00KB6DLUO                                                                                                                                                                             

    We spend a good part of our conversation talking about the fascinating story of Neutral Moresnet. It was a tiny territory in Europe that for over a hundred years, demonstrated that when people are left alone, an emergent order of peace and prosperity can be created, through voluntary cooperation without the need of a central authority. 

    He discusses how Moresnet came into existence, the unique competing systems of justice its citizens utilized, what led to the destruction of this beautiful accidental experiment in anarchy,  and the lessons this forgotten chapter of history can teach us today. 

    The Story of Moresnet is one that everyone who is interested in discovering real life examples of peaceful anarchy in action, should be familiar with.  Pete reminds us as well that Anarchy doesn't mean the absence of rules it simply means the absence of rulers. Neutral Moresent is an example of what can happen when people are alone and in peace. 

    Pete also gives his thoughts on the current resurgence of Socialist thought,  the power of decentralization to create more freedom and his common sense approach to spreading the ideas of individual liberty, peace and prosperity to others. Pete is a very optimistic about the future and gives examples that support his belief.

  • Talking all things Kratom with Kelly Dunn owner of Urban Ice Organics CHPodcast Ep.25

    Kelly Dunn is the owner of Urban Ice Organics. It’s the fastest growing Kratom company in the country and for good reason. They lab test all of their products and they adhere to Good Manufacturing Practices. Urban Ice Organics is the only brand that I trust. 

    https://naturalorganix.com

    We talk about the science and safety of Kratom, the current state of the Kratom industry and the personal reasons why he produced the documentary “A Leaf Of Faith”.

    Kelly discusses why he uses Kratom, the growing number of people who are using it to improve their health and wellbeing and why its important to keep Kratom legal. 

    Kelly is doing a lot to keep Kratom legal and to find out the truth about it. He supports the Scientific Research on Kratom by the University of Florida and he’s working on a sequel to “A Leaf of Faith". I firmly believe that the documentary "A Leaf Of Faith" played a huge role in helping to keep Kratom Legal. 

    You can check out A Leaf of Faith on Netflix, you can purchase a DVD of the documentary or watch it on iTunes.

    During our conversation we also spoke about the work that The American Kratom Association is doing to keep Kratom Legal. Their site is a great way to learn more about Kratom. If you already use Kratom and it helps you please considering supportering their work. 

    https://www.americankratom.org 

    I found Urban Ice Organics after more than a year of research on Kratom. I made my final decision to try their brand after watching Chris Bell, the Director of “A Leaf of Faith” discuss and share Kratom with Joe Rogan, on his podcast back in 2016 and I’m glad I did. It’s had a very positive effect on my life.

    Neither of us are doctors and our conversation shouldn’t be construed as medical advice. 

    Personally, I use Urban Ice Organics Kratom everyday to help manage my chronic pain. If you choose to take Kratom I recommend buying Urban Ice Organics. You can find their Kratom in capsule or loose powder form at https://naturalorganix.com

  • The Voluntary Social Safety Net with Max Borders CHPodcast Ep. 24

    Max Borders and I discuss the nature of charity, how he's using technology to create the voluntary social safety net of the future and viable voluntary options for creating alternatives to coercive institutions. 

    Max is a former editor at The Foundation For Economic Education, the author of "The Social SIngularity" and the Executive Director of Social Evolution. 

    We discuss his work using technology to create voluntary social safety nets known as Mutual Aide or Mutual Benefit Societies, the long and fascinating history of the social safety net before the Welfare State and how those who want to live in a free society can and should help those who are in need. 

    I highly recommend Max's Book "The Social Singularity" where he goes in depth with many of the subjects we cover. This episode is a little on the technical side but these discussions I believe are important becuse cryptocurrencies, tokens, DOA's, and other blockchain based technologies have the power to help create more freedom and less suffering for us all.

    You can follow Max's work on Twitter and Facebook

  • Group Purchasing Organizations, drug shortages and the high cost of healthcare - Phillip Zweig CHP Ep. 22

    Phillip Zweig joins us to talk about the secretive, massive, and corrupt Group Purchasing Organizations that drive up healthcare costs, decrease medical innovations and cause critical drug shortages in the United States.

    http://www.philliplzweig.com

    Phillip Zweig is an award winning financial journalist who is now the Executive Director of Physicians Against Drug shortages, which is a grass root group of physicians and other healthcare professionals working to end  drug shortages in America by lobbying Congress to repeal the 1987 Medicare anti-kickback "safe harbor" provision. This ill-considered statute exempted GPOs from criminal prosecution for taking vendor kickbacks and undermined competition in the generic drug/ healthcare supplies industry.

    Phil's White Paper on Group Purchasing Organizations:

    https://careandcost.com/2012/02/14/connecting-the-dots-how-anticompetitive-contracting-practices-kickbacks-and-self-dealing-by-hospital-group-purchasing-organizations-gpos-caused-the-u-s-drug-shortage/

    Phil recommends that if you want to stop the Pay-for-play scheme that the Group Purchasing Organziations are operating then call or email your Congress Person and let them know you support repealing the 1987 Medicare Anti-Kickback "Safe Harbor" Provision for GSO's.

  • Bourgeois Virtues and the Free Market with Professor Deirdre McCloskey

    Deirdre McCloskey is a world renowned Chicago School economist, historian, rhetorician, who describes herself as a "Christian Libertarian". She joins us to talk about her concept of Bourgeois Virtues and why their adoption and practice have led to the advancement that the human species has created in the last 300 years.

    Even if you’re not interested in economics, know that economists are interested in you, and in particular they are interested in using the force of government to nudge, encourage or outright change your behavior. 

    Professor McCloskey taught Economics, History, English and Communication at The University of Illinois at Chicago from 2000-2015. She is the author of 17 books and over 400 scholarly articles. 

    http://www.deirdremccloskey.com

    She explains how Bourgeois Virtues differ from the Virtues of the Aristocracy and Peasantry of old and how that they allow individuals to peacefully cooperate and compete in a free market economy, which in the end enriches us all. 

    We discus her trilogy of Books based on the concept of Bourgeois Virtues, the central problem of economics, as well as the Two Secret Sins of Economics which affects everyone.

    Bourgeois Virtues by Deidre McCloskey

    We cover a lot in this episode including the philosophical, religious and psychological aspects of economics , how advertising and sales are a natural part of human nature, and how even birds use persuasion to find a mate.  

    She describes what we are seeing today as a form of "Slow Socialism" which uses taxation and regulations to redistribute income. We also discuss how the rhetoric is being ramped up through proposals, like the Green New Deal, to create "Fast Socialism" which has had disastrous outcomes in the past.

    Her explanation of the  Secret Sins of Economics is extremely enlightening and explains a lot of the reason why personal freedoms have eroded in the last 100 years. Most mainstream economists, especially those who see themselves as social engineers, commit these "sins" without even realizing it. The consequences of these "sins" create the excuses and the explanations for why politicians and bureaucrats should interfere into the voluntary transactions of individuals.

    She explains how there really isn’t a public or private sphere, there are only voluntary or involuntary transactions. Professor McCloskey also warns us about the dangers of Envy and that it is truly insatiable. Instead of envying others we should seek to trade our gifts with others in voluntary transactions, which creates a benefit for all.

    Professor McCloskey is extremely optimistic about the future of humanity because of the unprecedented spread and acceptance of Bourgeois Virtues across the world, which at their core are about voluntary transactions, persuasion and the belief that everyone is created equal.
