  • Blueprint: Court Packing

    We continue our discussion on the judicial branch, this time focusing on packing the Supreme Court! Should we pack the courts to achieve a particular agenda? Should there be a constitutional amendment preventing congress from packing the bench? We discuss all that and more -- Don't miss it! 

    Welcome to the limited series Blueprint, a collaboration between Ryan from Between the Liars and Ken from Taboo Topic! This series is designed to envision a smaller federal government that is limited in power and scope, much like the founding fathers originally intended. Conservatives like to talk about smaller government, but most don't know what that looks like in the 21st century, besides the usual buzzwords. Thus, it's about time we start giving Americans this vision of a smaller government. Ryan & Ken take one issue they see with the current government and discuss it, then they propose a constitutional amendment to rectify the situation. At the end of this series they will finalize their amendments and you will have the opportunity to ratify them (follow our social medias so you don't miss the vote!).

  • Blueprint: Supreme Court & Term Limits
    At last we move on to the Supreme Court! Should the Justices of the highest court in the land have term limits place upon them? Should they be directly elected by the people?

  • Blueprint: Lobbying & Repealing the 17th Amendment
    Congress finally gets a wrap as Ken and Ryan discuss the complexity of the first amendment in order to minimize corruption with lobbyists. Then they get into a debate over the merits over the 17th amendment. Should there be a full repeal and give the power to state legislators in sending senators into congress? If so, what extra provisions could be added to prevent the events that led to the 17th amendment to create a true populist vote?

  • Month in Review: Student Loan Forgiveness & Pentagon's Rejection of D.C's Mayor; Biden's Collusion with The DOJ, Australia's Woke Politics, & Florida Primary Results
    We're back to discuss and react to current events that caught the eyes of the host Ken Drew, and host Grayson Dockery of The Conservative Nerd Podcast. They will dive into the details of Biden's decision to cancel student loans; was it fair or legal? Then what's happening in D.C to where the mayor is requesting assistance with the National Guard from the Pentagon? They remain in D.C and speculate over the new revelations the Biden Administration's role in Mar-a-Logo, before diving into the primary results in Florida. Many say it's the year of the parents, as many feel uncomfortable with the direction the public school are heading when they see stories, like the teen being allowed to identify as a cat by the school. Tune in for the first month in review!

  • Blueprint: Single Issue Bills & Legislative Accountability
    Another edition of Blueprint where Ryan from Between the Liars and Ken of Taboo Topic, goes over the flaws of the legislative process. There is more to the song of, "I'm Just a Bill," as congress has the tendency to pass legislation that has no relevance to the issue at hand, including not requiring everybody being called to vote. Should that be mandatory? Then Ryan and Ken debate the nuances of proposals, including a unique idea that could give more leverage back to the people in holding congress accountable when they failed in their duties. Tune in to hear the debate and pushback, including giving theories as to why the Framers didn't take the concerns of the Anti-Federalist more seriously in the ratification process in the beginning of the show!

  • Blueprint: Congressional Salaries & Benefits
    Congress has unlimited power to give themselves raises, creating a resentment between our delegates and the people. There are also benefits they receive without taxpayer consent—how should their power be limited? We discuss and debate the practicality of ideas, including having a short discussion in our thoughts about the recent FBI raid at former President Trump’s home and the timeliness of starting this Blueprint series!

  • Blueprint: Congressional Term Limits
    The host Ken Drew joins forces with Ryan from Between the Liars to embark on a new journey of discovery. What does it mean when conservatives champion small government? What were the thoughts of America's Founding Fathers on certain matters? What were their thoughts on congressional term limits? Were they right in their conclusion? Ryan and Ken begin a limited series on building a "blueprint" to give the average American a visual an idealistic idea of a limited government to empower the people, debate the practicality of ideas, and in the spirit of the Founding Fathers, compromise on hypothetical scenarios.

  • Voter's Eye: Ryan Goke, The College Experience
    Is it college as good as advertised? Or are the horror stories true? That's the core question this voter's eye edition seeks to answer. Inspired by finishing his first semester, host Ken Drew deep dives with Ryan, from Between the Liars, about the good, the bad, and the nuance for anyone considering a higher education.
