  • Ep 7: Exposing A Culture of Corruption with UBS Tax Fraud Whistleblower Brad Birkenfeld
    While corruption runs deep in government and other powerful establishments, we rely on honest people to step forward and expose it. One such man, a banker named Brad Birkenfeld, alerted the feds to the long-running UBS tax shelter scandal.

Birkenfeld tells his story in his books, Lucifer's Banker and the new Lucifer's Banker Uncensored.

  • Ep 6 - Why Do Many Millennials Embrace Socialism?
    History proves the repeated failures and abuses of socialist and communist systems. While we continue to see the devastation these governments left behind, why do so many young people today, according to studies, seem to embrace such policies? How can conservative and moderate thinkers better reach out to millennials?


    Tony Shaffer and Bryan D. Griffin discuss why a large amount young adults and teens are touting old Marxist philosophies as the world's future. Shaffer and Griffin look into the role of educators and how critical thought has been discouraged much like an ancient art form within Academia as well as how thinkers in the center and on the right can learn how to better appeal to today's young people.
