Those of you who’ve been following me the past few years know my January 6th arrest story. Most of you also know from my prison emails (book coming out SOON), what life was like behind bars.

But I haven’t talked a lot about the psychological effects of the political persecution – the stress and frankly trauma of being targeted by the full force of the federal government.

Which is why I was really grateful to go on the Shaun Newman podcast this past Monday, January 6th.

Shaun is a Canadian who stood up against his own government at the Canadian trucker’s rally in Ottawa back in 2022, so I have a lot of respect for him man-to-man. But his show is also phenomenal and he’s aired some of my favorite people in the alternative political / economic space, like Alex Krainer and Tom Luongo. I see him in many ways as the “Joe Rogan of Canada.”

Anyway point is he’s a great host and he brought a lot of my story out of me – both emotional and spiritual stuff I haven’t talked about these past few years. Didn’t expect to share ANY of this going in.
