  • The Covid Conspiracy: What They Don't Want You To See
    I dive into a very interesting article about Covid-19 and how certain information, from authoritative voices, are censored online. To quote from the article I discuss, "Informed consent isn’t possible when the opinions of renowned experts are being censored by those who control which voices we get to hear." Truer words have not been spoken. Tune in and be amazed by what the mainstream media has kept from you concerning Covid-19.

    Heroes do great things. They also perform small acts of resistance. Case in point, one teenage boy resisted his teacher's attempt to turn him into a racist. Sounds weird, I know. Tune in to hear about one inspiring act of resistance against critical race theory in school.

  • This is Why Recruiters Don't Give Feedback
    I have a background in recruiting so from time to time, I get questions like this via LinkedIn, “Do you think companies should give more feedback to candidates after interviews?” The question was posed to me in an open forum. Before I responded, I noticed that the comments were from the perspective of the jobseeker. Understandably, everyone who interviews for a job wants to know the “real deal” on why they were rejected. More often than not, job seekers receive a form letter that says (in so many words) thanks but no thanks, we hired someone else. As blunt as that response is, I think it’s the best course of action for the company. Why? Several reasons but this recent headline gives one prime example - "Facebook Told Black Applicant with PH.D She Needed to Show Culture Fit." In this episode, I discuss that article and my reactions.

  • Its okay to be racist when...
    One of the tenets of Critical Race Theory is to see racism in everything. I talked about that in my ebook – “Racism Reimagined: How Critical Race Theory Imperils the American Workplace.” Whenever I see reports of hate crimes, I tend to be skeptical. This is not to say that hate crimes do not exist. They certainly do. However, I do not believe that they occur at the rates the mainstream media and the culture of leftist victimhood would have me believe. I also have noticed that in certain circumstances, racism is perfectly fine and socially acceptable. I share my thoughts on these issues inside this episode.

  • Who decides the sex of your child?
    Who decides the sex of your child? Biology? Not anymore, if some people have their way. Did you know that there is a growing movement to give the choice of personal gender to children without input or prior consent from their parents? I discuss gender-dysphoric children and how a certain doctor describes transition affirming protocol is nothing less than child abuse.

  • What will Black Lives Matter do next?
    Black Lives Matter raised $90,000,000.00 in donations last year. What will they do with all of that money? I share my predictions in this podcast. Spoiler alert: I see parallels with the Back Panther Party from the Civil Rights Era.

  • Does Joe Biden have dementia?
    With all due respect and honor due to the leader of the free world, I have to ask, is President Joe Biden all there? There have been rumors of dementia as far back as when he was running for President. I examine the rumors and make some observations of my own in this episode.
