Today, The Two Mikes spoke for the first time with Dan McMillan who runs an organization that is trying to gather strength behind the idea that, of all America's current ailments, the most important to cure is the problem of corrupt money, especially the corrupt money that has turned both of the houses of the U.S, Congress into the agent of rich donors rather than those of America's citizens.

Mr. McMillan's organization is called "Save Democracy in America" (https://www.savedemocracyinamerica.org) and is seeking to craft an election finance system that is financed by the national government from tax revenue, a public financing system. Each American would receive a certain amount of money electronically and would use it to support the candidates they choose.

Today, the Two Mikes spoke and listened to and learned from Fred Coulter, the head of the Christian Biblical Church of God in Hollister, California.

Reflecting on the recent Halloween celebration, Mr. Coulter said that most people ignore the fact that the day of the celebration is really the day on which the martyrdom of St. Valentine is remembered and honored.

The day that is now celebrated is a day for the pagans which began in Rome as a holiday for the fertility of women. Currently, Halloween Day is not only a celebration of paganism, but even more a day of honoring Satan and the depravity he brings. Even the Catholic Church has surrendered and poses no objection to Catholics celebrating Halloween and its demonstration of depravity.

Today, The Two Mikes spoke with Charlie Trig who founded and owns a cyber-security company called Aegis Cyber Defense Systems (https://ww.aegiscds.com).

Mr. Trig is a software and web developer who started the Aegis company and developed a product called Aegis Cyber Defense, which is especially designed to help small businesses protect themselves against cyber and ransomware attacks. Once installed, the company's app also helps the computer’s own anti-virus system more effectively. The defense system is self-installed by the user after purchase.

The system consists of a shield that prevents attacks from 780 million IPs that the company has identified as a hacking site and which is updated every 30 minutes. Overall he said, about 18-percent of the Internet is home to nefarious actors. Mr. Trig said that his own company’s computer infrastructure is protected by the application and has been hit by up to 30,000 attacks per day and has never been violated.

Today, The Two Mikes spoke with Lee Habeeb, who is the Vice President of Content and host, along with six other "storytellers", of the Salem Radio Network’s program called "Our American Stories.

The program is now five-and-a-half years old, episodes are each two-hours long, they appear five nights per week, and covers stories about American heroes -- well known and ones who are largely unknown, but surely merit public recognition.

The title of each program seems to be eye-and-interest catching; for example: "No hands: No problem. Overcoming the Loss of Both My Arms", "The Blue Collars Leader of America's Most Innovative University", "Abolitionist John Brown", a "Washington's Farewell Address: The Story of America", and "Martin Luther: The Man Who Rediscovered God and Changed the World".

Today, The Two Mikes spoke with the prominent economist, historian, sociologist, and author Dr. Rainer Zitelmann about his fine new book Unbreakable Spirit: Rising Above All Odds.

Dr. Zitelmann said his book is about physically disabled individuals who refuse to adopt the persona and soothing-but false excuses of victimhood –sexism, racism, feminism, capitalism -- and instead seek to take advantage of the initiative to use their powers to not only survive, but to thrive.

Dr. Zitelmann discusses the achievements of 20 unique individuals – including the blind Saliya Kahawatte who climbed the seven highest mountains on the seven continents, Beethoven, who composed the 9th Symphony when nearly deaf, and the extraordinary success of singer Ray Charles in rising from a ruined life to preeminence ins his field— who provided all of us the lesson that what makes a person great is his or her ability to transform weaknesses into strengths and overcome limitations.

Today, The Two Mike's spoke with Ira, Our Gold Guy, (New website: https://advisormetals.com).

Ira spoke about a well-established cycle of major economic downturns that have occurred in the last 75 years, these negative events have happened roughly every 17 years. The cycle looks like this: 1958, 1975, 1990-91, 2007-2008, and next 2024. Ira said that these statistics and today's measures of the economy negate the "full-of-baloney" claims of Secretary of the Treasury Janet Yellen and other Biden economic officials that the economy is doing well.

Today, The Two Mikes had the pleasure of speaking with S. Marshall Wilson who is the Constitutional Party’s candidate for the governorship of West Virginia in this fall’s election.

Mr. Marshall is a U.S. combat veteran, a husband, a father, the son of a Baptist pastor, and has served two terms in the West Virginia Legislature, ending in 2019.

Mr. Marshall also is an ordained Baptist pastor. He has trained 100 preachers, opened ten churches, and served – with his family – as a missionary in the Amazon Jungle, where he and his wife adopted several more children. This is Mr. Marshall’s second run for governor.

Today, The Two Mikes spoke again with Mike Krupa a well-known Polish journalist/broadcaster and soon to be the esteemed holder of a Ph.D. in history.

In our short discussion, we focused first on the return of the EU’s favorite Polish politician Donald Tusk to the Polish government, now serving again as the country’s prime minister.

Tusk was previously the Polish prime minister from 2012-to-2019, and then served as the President of the EU’s European Council from December, 2015 to November 2019.

Today, The Two Mikes spoke with international affairs expert Michael Waller, who works at the Center for Security Policy in Washington, D.C.

Mr. Waller has just published a book with the provocative but all too true title Big Intel: How the CIA and FBI Went from Cold War Heroes to Deep State Villains (available at Amazon (https://www.amazon.com/Big-Intel-Heroes-State-Villains/dp/1684513537/ref=sr_1_1?crid=RD5XCL8X5JOL&keywords=big+intel&qid=1706903589&s=books&sprefix=big+intel%2Cstripbooks%2C272&sr=1-1), Cosco and many other book sellers.)

Today, the Two Mikes had the good fortune to again speak with Bishop Robert B. Smith, Jr. from Little Rock, Arkansas.

Bishop Smith, who is one of America’s most frank, articulate, and knowledgeable Christian pastors, explained that our nation is in truly serious trouble because so many people have not only drifted away from Christ, but also have not displayed the commonsense needed to realize that our country is run by men and women who worship Satan and have no interest in the lives and well-being of American citizens.
