Liberty RoundTable Podcast

Broadcasting live from AmericaFest in Phoenix, this episode of Liberty Roundtable Live takes a hard look at President Trump’s recent 18-minute address and asks a deeper question: is America truly experiencing an economic comeback, or are we mistaking slower decline for real recovery? Host Sam Bushman breaks down the speech point by point, agreeing with some policies while sharply questioning others, especially on tariffs, federal spending, healthcare, energy, and the growing role of government in everyday economic life. Is border security the real success story, and if so, why do wages still feel stagnant and prices stubbornly high for so many families?

Joined by guests Elden Stahl of the John Birch Society and Heath Perkins of Free Water Coin Company, the conversation moves beyond headlines into the foundations of the economy itself. Why are gold and silver at historic highs, and what do those prices reveal about confidence in the dollar? Is inflation truly easing, or are Americans simply getting used to the pain? The panel digs into the Federal Reserve, government debt, regulation, and the idea that the current system may be running out of levers to pull.

The episode closes with a sobering but hopeful discussion about honest money, constitutional limits, and what real reform might require, including tough questions about debt, digital currencies, sovereignty, and even the meaning of a modern economic jubilee. Are we headed for a controlled correction or a forced reset, and what role do faith, morality, and personal responsibility play in America’s future? This is an unfiltered, thought-provoking conversation that challenges listeners to rethink what prosperity really means and what comes next.

Broadcasting live from AmericaFest in Phoenix, this episode of Liberty Roundtable Live dives into some of the most pressing and uncomfortable questions shaping America right now. Host Sam Bushman and guest Elden Stahl explore how artificial intelligence is already reshaping the workforce, with a surprising statistic that nearly 20 percent of today’s jobs did not exist just a few decades ago. Is AI really coming to take everyone’s job, or is it quietly creating entirely new careers? And what happens when the federal government wants to place AI at the center of its own operations?

The conversation turns sharply toward government power, healthcare, and accountability. Can AI make government more efficient without turning it into a faster, more dangerous form of tyranny? Why are so many Americans deeply dissatisfied with the healthcare system, and how did both political parties help create a system where prices are hidden and government sits between doctors and patients? The discussion challenges the idea that more programs and more money are the solution, arguing instead for transparency, free markets, and personal responsibility.

The episode closes with eye-opening stories that raise serious concerns about sovereignty and justice, including China filing a massive countersuit against the state of Missouri, revelations surrounding the Mar-a-Lago raid, and the resignation of Dan Bongino from the FBI. What do these events reveal about political pressure, abuse of power, and the state of constitutional government in America today? This wide-ranging episode connects technology, liberty, economics, and morality into one urgent question - where is the country headed next, and who is really in control?
