E8: Balancing Optimism with Discernment with Special Guest Janell Hartman

 

E8 Introduction

Hello listeners and thank you for tuning into The American Pulse.

There has never been, in my lifetime, a more polarizing character than President Trump. There are those that love him, those that hate him, and lots people that stand in between.

I saw a recent poll (I can’t remember who conducted it) that said that 90 percent of Republicans agree with the direction the administration is taking us and 4 percent of Democrats approve of the direction.

There has never been a more stark divide of WE THE PEOPLE. I hear and see plenty of evidence in and around Seattle of how scared the left is. I don’t listen to much leftist media anymore but by chance I was listening to one of Steve Bannon‘s podcast episode to get his take a something and he always plays a few minutes of what Rachel Maddow and CNN and MSNBC are saying. You can hear how much fear they are drumming up in their dwindling viewership. Everything they say is a black pill meant to create fear, aversion, loathing, and distrust in those that are ingesting this stuff.

Who wants to feel that terrible all the time? Why would you? Trust me, there’s a better way.We are all going through these changes together and I don’t know about you but I am attracted to the path that is visionary and uplifting and gives us a roadmap of a higher plane that all Americans aspire to, regardless of politics.

These are the times that call us to be more courageous. To let in inputs and information that we have been told to fear. It is, as I have mentioned many times, a COLLECTIVE Hero’s Journey. I wish you Godspeed.

My guest today is a dear friend, podcaster, and an independent thinker who has been watching this narrative war as closely as I have. Enjoy the interview.

E7: Our Neighbors Awaken

 

E7 Introduction

Hello listeners and welcome to The American Pulse. It is great to have you here with us today. Today is a short little episode with our sponsor, a short piece of news and a song! We are early in our creative process with The American Pulse and trying some different ways of delivering something valuable to you. Knowing that we are all bombarded with content. We are hoping to find something that is short but impactful. Let’s get right to it with a word from our sponsor and this short offering.

There is a local story here that I wanted to share with you along with some of my thoughts on it.

There was a local Democrat leader Jessica Roberts, a transgender woman (meaning, of course a man posing as a woman), who was unanimously elected to the local Lynnwood city council. Well, they didn’t do their due diligence very well as it quickly emerged that Jessica had some dark fantasies that she posted on Reddit. What were they? She graphically describes fantasies of killing and dismembering women and also of eating children while people watch. Yes you heard that right.

Why am I telling you this. For all of the independents and Democrats who have finally had enough.

As a fairly new Republican myself, I want to welcome you with respect and appreciation of your courage for we know how difficult it can be to break away from the herd. Many of us did the same thing. It’s truly a Hero’s Journey and we honor wherever you are on your awakening.

To finish, here is a song of optimism for those that have had enough of the madness. This song harkens back to my own journey. When I looked around at the insane ideas that we being foisted up us and made a choice to reach for a more positive and uplifting narrative.

If you like the song, go download Wake Me Up by Avicii on I-Tunes. And we thank you for tuning into The American Pulse.

 

E269: Climate Facts Over Climate Fear w Special Guest Dr. Michael Karbowski

 

E269 Introduction

One of the great things about being alive right now is watching all the false narratives start to hemorrhage and bleed out. It is starting to dawn on more and more good humans that we have been lied about about damn near everything. All of the most sacred cows have not and will not survive the litmus test that is simply truth.

Isn’t that just amazing? The most dizzying maze of lies that we have been sold and told to believe are shown for all the world to see as an emperor with no clothes. We all sensed there were lies but we needed to be shown the truth to really know for ourselves.

Which brings us to the climate narrative. If you are a Gen Xer or a Baby Boomer, see if any of this sounds familiar.

I have heard throughout my life that humans were causing planetary harm and certain extinction of our species along with all of the others. When I was a kid, it was acid rain, remember that. Acid rain was going to kill us all. Wasn’t true.

Then it was the ozone layer. We were damaging the ozone layer so much that we would be lucky to see another decade at most. Wasn‘t true.

Then it was Al Gore and the inconvenient truth that the polar ice caps were melting, rapidly raising sea levels and this was spelling doom for all of us, especially in coastal areas. Not true. Not even close.

Then you had Global warming. That would CERTAiNLY be our end. Nope. Not true.

Since they can’t sell melting ice caps and global warming, let‘s just call the whole thing Climate Change. That way, no matter what happens, we can say “see, it‘s climate change” and be right about something. Oye vay.

What IS clear is that this non-stop doomer narrative creates fear and lots of money on the backs of taxpayers for the endless NGO’s or Foundations like the Gates Foundation that are pushing (and enriching themselves) off of the climate narrative.

To the point, if they are noisy about the climate, you can bet they are grifting off of our backs and don‘t want us to look at science lest we call them out for what they are: opportunists with an agenda that suits them and not WE THE PEOPLE.

We are going to get into all that today with a retired doctor who has done a deep dive to look for (and find) the facts about climate change. Enjoy the interview.

E6: Finding Our Way  w Special Guest Dr. Michael Karbowski

 

E6 Introduction

Hello listeners and welcome to The American Pulse.

Want to know what DOGE is doing and why?

Senator Elizabeth Warren is a good example of why. She has a salary of $285,000 and a net worth of (drum roll please) 67 Million dollars! Yep, you heard that right. Now, I have been an equity investor for 25 years. I have yet to see any stock market investor that can turn that sort of salary into such an outsized net worth. Not legitimately anyways. It’s really not possible unless you are grifting some how. And this sort of things is not just her but for many in congress.

A listener sent me an interesting meme that I wanted to share with you. This really goes out to liberals who have been abandoned by their own party and perhaps to centrists who only read The Seattle Times (which, of course , is full of anti-Trump sentiment).

It’s from Laser on X who says;

Hating Trump is just going along with the conformist herd. It’s an easy, low risk /low return position. Appreciating Trump’s leadership means sticking your neck out there, standing for something. “

On this show, we can appreciate this sentiment and still keep the meta narrative on this show w that we are all Americans, as you will hear from my guest today, a retired medical doctor. Enjoy the interview!

Dr. Karbowski Bio

My guest today is American Dr. Michael Karbowski. Dr. Karbowski is a retired anesthesiologist and former head of the anesthesiology dept at Group Health here in Redmond. Michael is involved at a grassroots level as a PCO here in LD 36. Here is my interview w Dr. Michael Karbowski.

E268: Wisdom and Clear Seeing w Special Guest Joel Rafidi

 

E268 Introduction

One of the central themes of this show (especially since 2020 and Covid) has been the Great Awakening of consciousness in the human tribe. Things have been accelerated on this timeline. And as much as pro-freedom, pro-American MAGA and MAHA are ready to celebrate the renewal of the American dream, we have some underlying dynamics that need to play out, are you following me?

As my guest today so eloquently expresses, much of the world feels like these are dark days, apocolypic even. It is important to keep that in mind as these epic events unfold, one after another.

It is a good time to travel LIGHTLY, meaning don’t hold too tightly to preconceived notions of right and wrong, us and them. Humanity as a collective seem to be holding on for dear life right now and keeping that in your awareness will help you and others.

What do humans do when they gradually realize that the systems that they placed their faith in not only don’t serve them but have actively tried to gaslight them and keep them in the dark. The cognitive dissonance that we are witnessing right now is astonishing.

However, there is more light coming into awareness. You can sense this as well. Each day brings a new revelation. We are suddenly realizing COLLECTIVELY that there are many things that we DON’T need as a society. This list is growing every day as the exposure of graft and corruption reach epic proportions.

It’s a good time to restore one’s faith. Whether that is God and Christ or the Divine or the benevolent forces of the creative Universe or just humanity and each other. We have allies that are assisting us, both inner and outer.

Today’s guest is one of my favorite’s. A fellow lover of truth, humanity, freedom, and the Hero’s Journey. Enjoy the interview.

Joel Rafidi Bio

My guest today is Joel Rafidi. Joel is a truth seeker, a father and husband, a hip hop artist and a coach who guides truth seekers to inner and outer freedom through his programs. He is also the host of the excellent podcast Here for the Truth. Here is my interview with Joel Rafidi.

I hope you enjoyed that conversation as much as I did. I feel like I could sit around the fire all night shooting the shit about all the things that are unfolding. To get directly connected to Joel’s content, go subscribe to his excellent podcast Here for the Truth.
