"Anarcho-Tyranny is a political theory that describes a government that is simultaneously oppressive toward law-abiding citizens while being lax or ineffective at controlling criminal behavior." Sounds familiar, doesn't it? We live in a country where 14-time convicted felons can walk the streets unmolested by authorities, yet we constantly have to live in fear of a government bureaucracy suddenly deciding a random piece of plastic will get you arrested. Is this all a big coincidence, or is this a carefully orchestrated set of circumstances? Well, listen up. Wanna hear the FULL Episode? ...

- TOPIC: From Nathan Tinstman: I’ve been looking at an option for hearing protection that can be carried/staged for defensive use. For example, if in the night I needed to grab my defensive weapon and barricade with my daughter until help arrived, what would be a recommended option? I've looked at the bigger earmuffs that are mic'd but would like to have an option that could be carried. I’ve seen they now make similar options that resemble AirPods. Does anyone have any experience with these? Does this sound ridiculous?
