Show Notes

Welcome back to another episode of The Confab. This episode, I catch up with my good friend, Badders, who is not only the creator of our podcast's intro music but also a return guest and colleague from our time at 21ism. Badders and I explore the concept of sovereignty and the idea of separating oneself from government control. We discuss the notion of the government as a legal fiction, a corporate entity that operates through trickery and deception, and how individuals can potentially extricate themselves from this system. Badders shares his journey of living a self-sustainable life...

Top tier #40hpw for the #firstturning. We’re only scratching the surface of what is possible with communities built on abundance and v4v. All three of you are an inspiration. Speaking of v4v, The First Turning Supper Club is collective of folks planning a collaborative feast of y(our) dreams during Lake Satoshi. This is an opportunity to play with v4v in the flesh.
