BHOL 134: Candidate Series – Walden & Guffey – Ward 3
by
Great episode of Boss Hog of Liberty!
Jeremiah Morrell and Dakota Davis host the city of New Castle Ward 3 candidate night. Incumbent Jerry Walden and challenger Chris Guffey. What does the next four years look like for our town? Should the city be investing in new buildings? We talk 1400 Plaza TIF district, the Castle Theatre, and the Armory.
Long term, what does the city look like? Could state road 3 be more walkable? Eliminate a driving lane, and add a walking/bike path? What would the reaction to that be?
In local news, the County is holding a meeting this THURSDAY discussing the likely increase of income taxes to pay for a potential new jail facilty. Will anyone vote against it? Will anyone speak against it?

BNS 88: A Christian Conservative’s Case Against Social Progressivism
by
In 2015, the Supreme Court case Obergefell v. Hodges held that the Fourteenth Amendment requires states to license and recognize same-sex marriage per the Equal Protection Clause. While millions celebrated the decision (including libertarians), many social conservatives found the ruling to be an attack on the state’s rights and the institution of traditional marriage.
Joining me on today’s episode is a dear friend, Thomas K. C. Thomas is a law student, a former libertarian, and a proponent of reverting America back to the days pre-Obergfell to restore America’s valuing of traditional marriage and traditional social values. Thomas also is a strong proponent against social progressivism. While Thomas and I disagree, we still ended up having a respectful conversation to best understand where the other side was coming from, undoubtedly leaving the audience educated, enlightened, and informed.

BNS 87: How to Succeed in Politics (and Other Forms of Devil Worship) with Remso Martinez
by
Two men separated by time embark on parallel paths to succeed in the blood sport that is professional politics. In the aftermath of the 2016 election, a young political operative named Art Brown finds himself about to sit at the right hand of power in Washington D.C only to end up falling out of the insider-circles he spent years trying to find acceptance in.
The other man would start his political path as one of the most progressive statesmen in the south, only to evolve into the villain of the civil rights movement- George C. Wallace.
Filled with political intrigue and suspense that spans among generations, along with that classic gonzo humor Remso W. Martinez has become known for, “How to Succeed in Politics (and Other Forms of Devil Worship)” is a dark comedy that will force you to ask whether success at all costs is worth losing your humanity in the process.
Today’s episode features all that and more, as we are once again joined by Remso to discuss his newest book, “How to Succeed in Politics (and Other Forms of Devil Worship)”!

WAL 372: A Theory of the Kennedy Assassination
by
While in Dallas, Chris Spangle took a tour of Dealey Plaza with Robin Brown of JFK Custom Tours. It was so entertaining, that he decided to invite Robin on the show to lay out what he believes happened on November 22, 1963. We spend a great deal of time discussing the rise of defense contractors and the CIA in the early days of the Cold War. Then Robin explains his theory on the why, how, and who of President John F. Kennedy’s murder. Visit Robin’s website at www.jfkcustomtours.com/.
Disclaimer: I really have no idea what happened to President Kennedy, and by having Robin on I am not endorsing his ideas. Much of the history on the establishment of that period we share is absolutely true, and most facts on the assassination he shared did check out. I don’t know what happened. I just found him to be a fun person you’d enjoy. Come to your own conclusions. – Chris Spangle

BNS BONUS: Nobody Knows How to Make a Pizza with Julie Borowski
by
Did you know that nobody knows how to make a pizza?
Wait, you disagree?
Okay, let’s try this- Did you know there’s not a single person on Earth who has the skills and knowledge to make something as deceptively simple as a cheese pizza? As a matter of fact, it takes millions of people, all with specialized skills – and what’s more, there are no central planners or people managing the process. So how do they do it?
That’s the premise of the new children’s book, “Nobody Knows How to Make a Pizza” by Julie Borowski! Listen as Julie joins the show to discuss her book to the liberty-loving audience of The Brian Nichols Show!
