Connor Boyack, creator of the wildly popular Tuttle Twins series, joins The Free Thought Project Podcast this week for an expansive, energizing conversation on liberty-based education, parenting in the surveillance age, and how to raise young minds that can think critically in a world full of propaganda.

Inspired by the Ron Paul revolution, Connor shares the origin story of Tuttle Twins, a project that started with a simple idea: give kids the tools to understand freedom, economics, and government power before the system conditions them otherwise. Since then, his books have sold millions of copies, been translated around the globe, and adapted into an animated series now being aired by governments and networks worldwide. Connor walks us through the thinking behind these projects and how he balances complex political and economic themes with fun, engaging storytelling that kids actually want to read. We discuss titles like The Creature from Jekyll Island and The Fate of the Future, and ask Connor which books he thinks have been the most impactful—and why.

Then the conversation shifts to today’s battleground: the digital domain. We ask how parents can protect their children’s minds and privacy as they're increasingly targeted by algorithmic dopamine loops, doomscrolling, and even AI tools marketed as “friends” or “therapists.” We also explore the darker realities of flock cameras, Palantir data fusion hubs, and the emerging technocratic surveillance grid—and what it all means for the next generation.

Finally, we close with our signature “white pill” segment, where Connor offers one of the most grounded and hopeful answers we’ve heard yet: that connection—with our kids, at the dinner table, in real conversation, is the antidote to indoctrination. This episode is a must-listen for anyone who cares about the future of liberty, parenting, or resisting the growing mental control matrix of the modern world.

Rachel Blevins returns to The Free Thought Project Podcast this week for a hard-hitting, unfiltered conversation about the state of U.S. foreign policy, media manipulation, and what we can do to push back. A former editor and journalist for TFTP, Rachel has since built a powerhouse independent journalism career, reporting on war, corruption, and censorship with the precision of an entire news agency.

In this episode, Matt, Jason, and Don dive right into the war in Ukraine, where Donald Trump has once again flipped the script. After campaigning on his ability to “end the war in 24 hours,” he’s now promising to send more weapons—breaking yet another key promise and reigniting questions about where he truly stands.

From there, we shift to the 12-day war between Israel and Iran and the very real potential for regional—or even global—escalation. Rachel breaks down how the U.S. quietly inserted itself into the conflict and points out something few are willing to say: while many people think Israel controls U.S. foreign policy, it’s often the U.S. that has long-term war plans in motion. Iran, as Rachel reminds us, has been on the Pentagon’s hit list for decades.

The conversation then moves to another major betrayal—Trump’s broken promise to release the Epstein files. With the new narrative that “the files don’t exist” and that it’s time to move on, we examine the timing and motives behind this abrupt reversal. Rachel offers nuanced insight into the intelligence ties behind the Epstein operation and how this story may be far from over.

As always, we close with a white pill—and Rachel delivers. Her final thoughts are a powerful reminder that even in the face of censorship, propaganda, and geopolitical chaos, there are still things we can do to make a difference.

G. Edward Griffin needs little introduction—at 93, this author, documentary filmmaker and founder of Unfiltered Media has spent more than half a century exposing hidden power, most famously in The Creature from Jekyll Island, where he traced the secret meeting that birthed the Federal Reserve. In this episode of The Free Thought Project Podcast, Matt Agorist, Jason Bassler and Don Via Jr. sit down with Griffin to map the banking cartel’s century-long blueprint for control and plot how we break its chokehold.

We launch into the 1910 rendezvous on that remote Georgia island—no hearings, no debate—where a cabal of bankers and politicians sketched out the Fed, then fast-forward to today, as Griffin pulls back the curtain on how the same elites are weaponizing digital currencies, surveillance algorithms and predictive analytics to usher in a technocratic state. He lays bare their endgame: collapse the old order and herd us into a system of total oversight, where every dollar and dissenting thought is tracked.

But this isn’t just an economic exposé. We dive into the philosophical roots of our engineered society—how a government stripped of principle by design has betrayed the founders’ grand experiment in liberty—and ask what it will take to reawaken those checks and balances before they’re gone for good. As the clock winds down, Griffin shares his vision for the Red Pill Expo, a gathering meant to spark a new revolution of truth-seekers.

And just when you think you’ve heard it all, we hit you with one of Griffin’s own truths as our white-pill moment: a reminder that the fight demands action now, or the price of victory will only climb. His answer—about the decision he’s making in this very moment and the step each of us must take before this episode ends—is one you won’t want to miss.

In this episode of The Free Thought Project podcast, Jason and Matt sit down with author and truth seeker Jeffrey Hann, whose recent books The Fallacious Belief in Government and COVID-19: Short Path to ‘You’ll Own Nothing and You’ll Be Happy’ pull no punches in exposing the brutal realities of global control, technocratic overreach, and engineered tyranny.

We dive deep into the AI surveillance dragnet being built around us, the implications of Trump’s war rhetoric and alignment with the military-industrial complex, and the broader patterns of manufactured crises being used to usher in the new age of control. Jeffrey lays out what he believes is a path of inevitable collapse—and how to survive what’s coming.

But we didn’t stop there.

We also explored how decentralization, privacy coins like Zano, and conscious resistance to the digital slavery grid are not just strategies — they’re necessities. And even though much of the conversation focused on the darkness of our current moment, we still managed to close things out on a white pill — with hope, empowerment, and the reminder that we still have choices.

Tune in, question everything, and remember: awareness is the first step toward liberation.

On this episode of The Free Thought Project podcast, Matt, Jason, and Don sit down with legendary civil liberties attorney and constitutional scholar John W. Whitehead, founder and president of The Rutherford Institute. John has been on the front lines of the battle for freedom for over four decades—fighting government overreach in courtrooms, writing more than a dozen books (including Battlefield America), and warning us about the coming surveillance state long before it was mainstream.

We kick off the show unpacking Trump’s unhinged push for war with Iran and the ruling class interests pulling the strings behind him. As John reminds us, every U.S. war begins with lies—and none of them make us safer. From there, we pivot into the creeping technocracy swallowing our rights, with Trump now embracing Palantir to track, score, and ultimately target dissenters—especially those who dare to oppose war.

John helps us break it all down, showing how the surveillance state isn’t about security—it’s about control. And as always, we wrap with some much-needed white pills. John offers a grounded and inspirational vision for resistance, from local action to legal defense, reminding us that the fight is not over—and that freedom is still worth fighting for.

In this episode, Jason, Matt, and Don sit down with Matt Cormier, the researcher and creator behind HealthUncensored.com, a platform dedicated to exposing the hidden forces undermining public health — from metabolic decline and environmental toxins to medical censorship and institutional fraud.

We dive deep into Matt’s current focus: the global drop in average human body temperature and what it signals about our collective health. Matt explains why this subtle shift could be a canary in the coal mine for immune dysfunction, metabolic disease, and widespread hormonal collapse — and why it's not being discussed.

The conversation expands into the root causes behind this trend, including ultra-processed food, toxic plastics, pharmaceutical overload, and a rigged medical establishment that would rather normalize dysfunction than fix it. We also discuss Matt’s efforts to publish a powerful study on autism and the connection between body temperature and cognitive function.

To wrap it all up, we ask Matt how humanity can “get hot again” — leaving listeners with a call to action and a hopeful reminder that awareness is the first step toward healing.

In this enlightening episode of The Free Thought Project podcast, Jason flies solo (with Matt on vacation) for a deep-dive conversation with longtime liberty activist and Free Talk Live co-host, Mark Edge. Note: Jason's mic wasn’t working correctly for the first 17 minutes — but the insights are worth sticking around for.

Mark's radio co-host and Free Talk Live co-founder, Ian Freeman, is currently serving time in federal prison for the "crime" of facilitating Bitcoin transactions — a glaring example of the federal government’s ongoing war on crypto. We unpack Ian's unjust prosecution, his prank encounter with Joe Biden that may have put him in the feds’ crosshairs, and the heartbreaking reality that Free Talk Live is now on life support.

Jason and Mark also reflect on their time at the 2025 Bitcoin Conference in Las Vegas, the energy and evolution of the crypto movement, and briefly touch on Roger Ver’s new book Hijacking Bitcoin. We discuss the importance of decentralization, the co-optation risks crypto faces, and Ross Ulbricht’s powerful first public speech since being imprisoned in 2013.

The conversation turns toward the two-party illusion, the failures of political reform through party expansion, and whether Trump's second term could change the trajectory of the crypto crackdown. We wrap with a white pill: Mark’s optimism, what keeps him going after nearly two decades in the fight for liberty, and how we can support Ian and others like him.

This is a must-listen for anyone who cares about digital freedom, liberty activism, and the future of financial sovereignty. (Length: 51:10) Support TFTP with subscription: https://thefreethoughtproject.com Jason's Website for Upcoming 'KYR class': https://www.jasonbassler.com/

In this special episode of The Free Thought Project Podcast, Jason and Matt sit down with Aaron Day and Quinten van Welzen for a powerful and hopeful discussion about Zano, digital freedom, and the future of decentralized resistance.

This episode avoids the heavy tech jargon and instead explores the human philosophy and mission behind Zano — a cryptocurrency project that’s much more than just a coin. Quinten breaks down how Zano enables private transactions, confidential assets, community marketplaces, and even user-generated coins, making it a full privacy-respecting ecosystem built to empower individuals around the world.

We also dive into Zano’s deflationary economic model, contrasting it with the unchecked inflation and debt-fueled spending of centralized governments — particularly relevant as the U.S. ramps up military budgets and inches closer to CBDC-style control through stablecoins.

Aaron shares insight on the broader battle for financial freedom and privacy, including his advocacy for Roger Ver, who is facing politically motivated prosecution. We end the show with an important update on Roger’s case — and why a recent Department of Justice memo could mean it should be dropped altogether.

If you’re looking for real tools to opt out of the digital control grid — and some much-needed inspiration — this is an episode you don’t want to miss. (Length: 1:04:08) Little Free Thinkers: 'Know Your Rights' Children's book: https://littlefreethinkers.com/
