The American Pulse E19: How Humans Flourish

E19: How Humans Flourish w Special Guest Martin Barrett

 

E19 Introduction

Hello listeners and thank you for tuning in. I love this idea brought to me by my guest today of how do we flourish as humans? It is an idea that transcends political party and gamesmanship. And it begs a few questions. Are the societal and political structures that we strive within, are they allowing us to flourish or are they promoting other qualities. When we look around at our cities, do we see everyone flourishing? I don’t think anyone would truthfully say that we are, would they? And why is that? And what do we do about it?

There is a movement afoot from WE THE PEOPLE and my guest today truly exemplifies it. Sometimes with all the noise in the media and social landscape around what is happening in D.C. , we can lose focus on the things that are happening right down the street. Our communities need us in whatever small way we can serve and as many of us as possible.

If you are feeling called to make a small difference and you are here in KingCo, please reach out to us at www.kcgop.org. We want to hear from you. There are so many small ways that can help move the needle. We are doing this as a team. As WE THE PEOPLE.

Today’s interview is a good one and I would like to get right to it. Enjoy.

Martin Barrett Bio

My guest today is American Martin Barrett. Martin is a husband and father, a successful entrepreneur, a citizen journalist and the co-founder (along with his wife Beth) of the Burien News, who’s vision is to promote human flourishing through uplifting, truthful stories.

E19 Final Thoughts-

I hope you enjoyed that conversation as much as I did. If you are local here in the Seattle area, go subscribe to the Burien News. Martin and his team are living examples of the old axiom Think Globally, Act Locally and very much in alignment with the grassroots movement that is happening here at the King Co GOP and all over this great nation. Power to the people.

Thank you for tuning in and we’ll see you next week on The American Pulse.

 

 

 

The American Pulse E18: The Education Conversation

E18: The Education Conversation w Special Guest Chinmay Nagarkar

 

E18 Introduction

Hello listeners and thank you for tuning into the American Pulse. My guest today is a first-generation immigrant with a passion for education excellence for all of our children.

There is much debate these days (with all the corruption being exposed on the national level), of CAN we save the Dept of Education? Is it worth it? How do you correct course for a corrupt organization massive bureaucracy not to mention all the far left ideology that have replaced any real scholarship or deep learning for the kids. The Dept of Education has, to use political jargon, been captured.

Should the Dept of Ed be abolished? I have my thoughts on the matter as I watch countless homeschooled kids do miles better in their intellectual development than the public school kids. But we can‘t just abandon all of the kids that are in the system. It doesn’t seem right, does it? My guest today doesn‘t feel right about it either which is one of the reasons he is running for a local school board. Even though his kids are not in the system, he has still raised his hand to be a leader. I love this and it exemplifies the grassroots approach that we celebrate here on the Pulse.

I thoroughly enjoyed the conversation with this wise American. He has some great ideas about how can we can improve education in our great nation. Enjoy the interview.

Basecamp for Men E282: We the Parents

E282: We the Parents with Special Guest David Spring

 

E282 Introduction

Today’s episode is an interview I did on my other show The American Pulse. Since each show has its distinct listenership, I thought this interview and the subject matter was quite relevant for you here at Basecamp.

Sometimes you meet everyday heroes just going about your day. Such is the story of my guest today who came to speak to my LD meeting (Legislative District) last year to talk about the state of education and the transgender ideology that has exploded in our public schools here in WA. This combination of dropping test scores along with the meteoric rise of the transgender ideology and more and more mental illness has, from my vantage point, overrun our public schools.

Let’s be clear here before we proceed.. I am not against some poor child who is being encouraged to question his or her biological reality. My beef is with the adults who have created and foisted these terrible ideas upon unsuspecting children and their parents who (I would imagine) must watch thunderstruck as their beautiful son or daughter start to walk a treacherous path of drugs and hormone replacement and (possibly) life altering surgery. Who created this? We’re going to talk about that today.

My heart goes out to the trans community. Truly it does and I think this is true for most of the conservative, independent, and libertarian minded Americans. We see what is being done and just because we won’t celebrate all things transgender, does not mean we are against you. Quite the contrary. We fight on your behalf. So future parents feel supported by schools and structures around them. Not threatened if they don’t go along with every crazy idea and legislative action put forth by people who personally benefit from widespread adoption of the transgender cult. Enjoy the episode.

David Spring Bio

My guest today is David Spring. David is a retired professor, an author, a prolific writer, and a man who puts truth over ideology. Here is my interview with David Spring.

E17 Introduction

Hello listeners and thank you for tuning into The American Pulse. Sometimes you meet everyday heroes just going about your day.

This combination of dropping test scores along with the meteoric rise of the transgender ideology and more and more mental illness has, from my vantage point, overrun our public schools.

Let’s be clear here before we proceed.. I am not against some poor child who is being encouraged to question his or her very biological reality. My beef is with the adults who have created and foisted these terrible ideas upon unsuspecting children and their parents who (I would imagine) must watch thunderstruck as their beautiful son or daughter start to walk a treacherous path of drugs and hormone replacement and (possibly) life altering surgery. Who created this? We’re going to talk about that today.

So future parents feel supported by schools and structures around them. Not threatened if they don’t go along with every crazy idea and legislative action put forth by people who benefit from widespread adoption of the transgender cult.

Ask yourself this: Do you really think Bill Gates and Bob Ferguson and Chris Reykdal care about the health and education of your children? If they did, why do their actions say otherwise? Don’t get mad, I’m just asking a question.

I had the great pleasure to meet my guest and we talked all about the state of education here in WA state. This is a bit longer of an episode but I think it is more than worth the listen. Enjoy!

Basecamp for Men E281: The People’s Revival with James Dixon

E281: The People’s Revival w Special Guest James Dixon

 

E281 Introduction

We have entered a new chapter in our collective Hero’s Journey and everyone can feel it. Humanity, the underdog in this story, has picked itself off the globalist mat and is finding its legs and its strength. I don’t know about you but I am here for it. So is my guest today.

Humanity is at its best when we are inspired, unified, and in purpose. Resolved as my guest so eloquently states. I believe we are seeing a quickening in our tribe. God has activated us in this timeline for this very reason. To ensure the safe arrival of our people at the new shores and when I say our people, I mean all the good people of this great nation and the world. People, if just given a fair chance, will gravitate to the higher realms. The unifying, inspiring themes that elevate our ourselves and our surroundings.

The irony is not lost on me that the enemy of WE THE PEOPLE has now launched a NO KINGS campaign in the liberal cities across the nation. This is well financed, as usual, by George Soros and other Globalists who seek to create chaos and fear and division in our most liberal cities. They are, after all, experts at color revolutions as they have shown their true colors time and time again.

Yet, the wisdom and clarity of a proper King’s Vision where there is blessing and humility and inspiration is what people are hungry for. People want to be led by what is true and beautiful and uplifting. Let’s go talk to my guest today. A man who embodies so much of what we express here on Basecamp, particularly in the area of King energy.

Oh, and the interview was cut just a bit short. James had a family emergency and had to run before we wrapped up. We captured what I feel is one of the best episodes of the season. And thanksfully, everything is ok with James and his family, just to let you know. Enjoy the interview.

James Dixon Bio-

My guest today is James Dixon. James is an author and the CEO of Absolute Motivation. He is a sought-after speaker, delivering inspiring keynotes to audiences on topics like resilience, purpose, and overcoming challenges. Here is my interview w James Dixon.
