What's Coming Up Next Week
Discussion of Land Grab, Budgets for Me But Not For Thee Do Harken to Warnings We have Ignored
75th Episode of Severed Conscience Podcast
Each Friday a new episode of the Severed Conscience Podcast is released, and today marks the 75th episode. I want to thank all who have supported those efforts. There are many topics that fall under the Severed Conscience umbrella and if you have viewed any of the offerings available on Rumble, you’ll no doubt have heard many of these themes such as AI, social media and depression, algorithms that manipulate reactions, land grab, controlled environments such as a C-40 City or a 15 Minute City. Ultimately Severed Conscience is about you losing your liberty through influences that Big Tech employ on their platforms to force reactions and drive you to behaviors that cut you off from thinking before responding.
Many times both Orange and I have written about liberty and you being in conscious control of your thinking as the cure to Severed Conscience. Natural Law and self determination, as well as self reliance are facets, that led to the founding of our culture of individual rights, freedom and our country.
The people of North Carolina, who have taken matters in their own hands, and who demonstrate great resilience and ingenuity, are yet another example of shrugging off the collectivist nature of the State acting as Caring Mother. Experts have failed many in this disaster, and in order to survive people have forge ahead of their own volition. There is no time for social media heroes, nor influence from AI based algorithms. That is the reason why for the 75th episode of Severed Conscience I wanted to demonstrate that people indeed can shrug off online, top down technocratic control. Many people who we never see or hear of on social media have jumped in to help. That gives me great hope.
Podcast Audio is up on Apple Podcast, Spotify and Spreaker. New releases each Friday, if you feel these are compelling, please leave a review, it helps the efforts to get the word out to people.
Getting Out There
This week I shared some of my fall camping adventures I’ve had with my son. The colder temps at night during October offer challenges, but that’s the whole point of calling it an outdoor adventure. This month’s edition of No Safety Net, No Internet is about my son’s first initiations with his Boy Scout Troop. My initiations as well. With all the seriousness going on, it was fun to revisit these outings.
What’s On Deck For Next Week For Founders History
Each month Cultural Courage spotlights accomplishments of the Founding Fathers, their stories of courage and of how many educated themselves to rise to the challenges of a very tough life in 18th century colonial America.
Some rightly ask “why does the past matter where this so much going on today that I can’t keep up?” Many of the questionable decisions regarding diverting funds to foreign countries while we tell the victims of North Carolina that we are running out of funds at the Small Business Administration or FEAM, can be directed related to the warnings of the Founding Fathers. I recently learned more of the Anti-Federalists, as many of the criticisms of the Constitution have come sadly true these past few years. Understanding the warnings would have at least prevented or hindered this lurch toward complete lack of accountability, and to our own complacency.
There is a figure who I refer to as a Founding Grandfather, Johnathan Mayhew, who was born in the month of October. Mayhew’s voice is perhaps one of the strongest influence on both Adams, Jefferson, Roger Sherman and others. His views on our responsibility to answer the tyranny I detailed above will be very insightful for us to visit next week. As you’ll see, his thoughts on compliance are directly applicable to our inaction today.
OZFest Morning Mission
While North Carolina has occupied much of our attention, events in my home state of Michigan have taken yet another bizarre turn. Our Attorney General, Dana Nessel, has announced that Michigan tax payers will be funding 3 law firms that she has hired to assist with bringing lawsuits against oil companies for climate change.
The podcast session below from OZFest Morning Mission gives you the details. Michigan is the microcosm for what is coming for the rest of our country, we need to be informed about what our elected officials are doing that will curtail our liberty.

Synchronicity was at work this week, as
released an article about how the state of Michigan’s Council on Climate Solutions is staffed with members who are funded by climate change advocacy groups. Jason appeared in an interview with me last year, and he continues his great analysis as we spend billions to reshape Michigan’s economy.As Jason wrote in his latest piece:
There’s good reason the program “may engender backlash.” Imagine for a second the progressive green response if federal funding went to the NRA, who then had sufficient funding to parachute staff in Dana Nessel's office to work "on [firearms]-related or [firearms]-adjacent projects across Michigan"?
Is it any wonder we seem to lurch toward economically unsustainable yet climate friendly solutions despite all our protestations?
I Was Procrastinating But It Wasn’t My Fault
You’ll no doubt have noticed that this Friday edition is - ahem - a bit late. But it wasn’t my fault. Honestly, it’s
fault entirely, and he revels in it. Two great things from him today got my attention, the first a fiction piece that was Edgar Rice Burroughs meets the Priests, of the Temples, of Syrinx. Sorry for the reference word salad, but I’ve rediscovered Rush’s 2112 album this week, a good friend of mine just had to show off his new wall of sound stereo equipment, with the channel separation so good you can hear John Bonham’s pedals squeak on Babe I’m Gonna Leave You.“Audio archeology,” he said grinning ear to ear. “All of this is just sitting on the CDs just waiting for the right equipment to unearth for us.”
He gave a copy of the latest remastered edition of Rush’s 2112, which he proudly played for me that evening as well. Suffice to say I’ve been hooked on it again this week.
Anyway, the Temples of Syrinx is a song from that album about a priest class that maintains all knowledge in a future dystopia, and music and individuality has been purged from humanity. Sounds a lot like the dystopic things that I warn about with collectivism and Severed Conscience.
The Bone’s Writer’s story harkens back to adventure books where an explorer stumbles upon an advanced civilization that has managed to remain isolated from the rest of the world. In his tale, this civilization is controlled by a class of priests who wield ancient technologies that are amazingly powerful. If you are a fan of Robert E Howard’s Kane short stories or any of the Edgar Rice Burroughs series, this might be up your alley. I loved the first chapter and am eager for more.
But what was even better was The Bone Writer published a “Behind the Writing” article with details on some of the research and history behind the setting he has crafted. This was just as fantastic, I am huge fan of the alternative archeology of Egypt, Graham Hancock’s The Finger Prints of the Gods, Christopher Dunn’s The Giza Power Plant and other great, thought provoking speculation. In many cases, these works are better theories than what establishment historians, anthropologists and Egyptology tell us today.
You bet this stuff caught my attention, it was fascinating. I couldn’t stop reading.
