For 10 years, he has dedicated himself to researching, studying and analyzing the Federal Reserve System, banking and the national debt. Alan is a writer, speaker and radio commentator on these and other related topics.

What are the absolute HAVE-TO takeaways that we need to leave our audience with to have a better educated citizenry. 2) What is the origin and development of money? 3) What are the historical characteristics of what defines what money is? 4) Does crypto fit enough characteristics to actually be or become money? 5) Why is the Fed depicted on the cover of your book as a Hydra? 6) Let’s discuss some items that people have used as money in World History.

Our guest today is Dr. Dick Caster. Dr. Caster is one of the Originators and Founders of the FASTERSavesLive Emergency Response Program that has been protecting and saving the lives of school children across the nation for a decade. Holding a doctorate in School Administration and having worked as an Instructor and Director of the National Association of School Resource Officers, Dr Caster has a deep understanding of the need and importance of securing our nation’s schools as we do every building that houses our nations treasures. In the early 2000s Dr. Caster, along with John Benner, the Founder and Owner of Tactical Defense Institute, wrote a school safety curriculum that would eventually become the FASTERSavesLives Training Manual. Tragically, it took the murders at Sandy Hook Elementary School in 2012 for teachers and administrators to understand and begin to demand this kind of armed and unarmed emergency training as well as the emergency field medical supplies and training that FASTER includes in the training. 1) Walk us through those early days when you and John Benner were writing a manual? Was there an impetus that spurred you to write it? 2) At the time when you wrote that original manual surely you imagined it would never be accepted in schools. Yet you wrote it anyway. How did you go from words on paper to the very first training class? - A week-long training program for the "Single Officer Response to an Active Killer" offered to law enforcement officers through the National Association of School Resource Officers. 3) What have been some of your greatest successes and biggest frustrations over the years? 4) Why is it important for us to study previous murders, including the methods and the motivations? 5) There seems to be a shift in the behaviors of people who commit these horrendous murders, from someone who is acting out a grievance to nowadays someone seeking some twisted idea of glory or fame. How does this impact our responses?

Talk to us about what is involved in the course? 3) While I was in OH the OH Supreme Court made a ruling that could threaten this decade-long program and cause schools to be less safe. Talk to us about this ruling. 4) Schools are once again open all over the nation and horribly, bad guys WILL take advantage of the “Gun Free Zone” signs. Many administrators and educators are going to want to have this kind of training – medical and physical (armed and unarmed) preparedness – how can they get signed up for a class?

Our guest today is Steve Pomper. Steve is an author, freelance writer, and retired Seattle police officer.

He has written several books, and his latest title is “The Obama Gang: How Barack Obama, through his post-presidency foundation, assembled, launched, and wages the new assault on American law enforcement”. 1) Before we dive into your new book...my favorite line on your website is: “What’s the Most Government Can Do for Me? The Least Government Can Do for Me.” That is a very Libertarian stance. You have also been a Law Enforcement Officer. There are more than a few people who would say that those are competing mindsets. For you, how do those two things mesh together? 2) Let’s talk about your book, “The Obama Gang”. 3) Tell us about your article in LifeZette, titled “Is the FBI Misreporting Data About Legal Gun Owners Stopping Active Shooters?” 4) Back in November you wrote an article titled, “Cops’ Free Speech Rights: Like Walking Through a Minefield—Barefoot—On Crushed Glass”. And, recently, Nate Sylvester an ID police officer made a comical video pretending to ask LeBron James if it was ok to stop a knife fight. That officer was fired for making a funny TikToc video. Can you expound on what you wrote in your article?

You grew up in the UK, where guns are not as acceptable culturally speaking. So, how did you get into firearms? 2) What do you think are some of the main areas of concern within the training world today? 3) What do you focus on when running a firearms class? 4) Your eBooks why did you write them? And what are the topics that you cover and where can somebody get them from? - Tell us specifically about the one on How to Survive a Home Invasion. 5) Tell us about the Bullets and Bombshells UK event.

Our guest today is Jeff Gottesfeld. Jeff writes for page, stage, and screen. He has won awards from the American Library Association, the Association of Jewish Libraries, the Writer’s Guild of America, the National Council for the Social Studies, and the American Alliance for Theater and Education. His current focus is picture book texts for children, and he just published his latest title, Twenty-One Steps: Guarding the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. 1) It is interesting how we each grow and change through our life experiences and the historical events that happen during our lifetimes. When you were younger your views were different than they are today. So, how did a former Vietnam War protestor like yourself come to write a book like this? - I'll talk about my upbringing in the liberal (not leftist then, but liberal) bastion of Teaneck NJ, first school system in the country to voluntarily integrate, and my skepticism (at best!) in high school and early college about American institutions and the military. Then came the American resupply of Israel in the 1973 war, the Beirut bombing against our Marines in the early 1980s, Gulf War I, and a lot of travel on my part through the USA and Europe. In short, my vision of our country's institutions and its military changed. Drastically. 2) This book runs so counter so much else going on in children's literature these days. What do you have to say about that? - I'll want to talk about how much of children's lit these days focuses on certain values like kindness, tolerance, and compassion, and how those are important values, but not the ONLY values. Also, how there's a ton of focus on issues of identity after so much neglect for so long, which is a good thing...but it's not the only thing. This book is about another way to look at identity, which is selflessness, selfless service, and self-effacement. It's radical in that way. 3) Can you read us your favorite passage, and give us some insight into why it's important? - I'll read from the section of the first Unknown lying in state in the Capitol, and how in our not knowing the identity of the Unknown, we can all have equal claim and love for him. The giving up of identity is actually the key to his emergence as a core American symbol.

Our guest today is Lloyd Bailey. Lloyd is the Armed Lutheran, host of “Armed Lutheran Radio,” a weekly podcast about faith, firearms, and freedom. He is also the editor of the newly released book, “Duty to Defend”. 1) Why is the “duty to defend” such a difficult concept for both Christians and people of other Faiths? 2) You have some powerhouse voices who wrote contributions in this book. Was there one in particular that you felt would lend extra credence to your work? 3) In our current world, division is everywhere. Christ himself said, all those 2,000 years ago that chaff and wheat would be separated, and that he knew he was part of that sifting and sorting. He actually said in the Gospels that family member would turn against family member. How do we, as Christians, interpret and square a duty to defend with a duty to become separate from those who are of and in the World? 4) How were guns viewed in the household you were raised in? Were you raised with firearms?
