Andrew For America presents a new and improved video episode replaying Andrew's fantastic conversation with former libertarian candidate for governor of New York, Mr. Larry Sharpe. They discuss podcasts being "the future of media," the importance of "trusted" sources of information, their military service, the perils of discovering the realities of this world, the two-party system, money in politics, the ability (or lack thereof) for third-party ballot/debate access, how voluntaryism works, modern leadership defined as voluntaryism, confusing capitalism with oligarchy, Robert Ringer, Harry Browne, Ayn Rand and objectivism, Ross Perot scaring the establishment, the need for more "David's" and less "Goliath's" in society, the importance of courage and perspective, the war on drugs, the difference between market forces vs. government forces, the spirit of America and how America has become its "father," the need for us all to "accept the challenge" with regard to finding common sense solutions to our problems regardless of partisanship, and a whole lot more! Andrew begins the show by sharing a clip from former CNN "news" anchor Chris Cuomo (who recently made some ridiculous public statements about Covid and Ivermectin) and from Dave Smith who recently stated that it is our job to educate others about how this world actually works.

It's hard to remember what life was like before the internet. Jeffrey A. Tucker has some marvelous advice on how to survive a world of instant feedback. Dependency upon government is more than just an ideological choice, it's a disease that has done in many other civilizations throughout history. Jeff Thomas wonders, when will we learn? It's strange how those of us in rural America who wish to be left unmolested by others are being portrayed as the primary threat to "democracy." J.B. Shurk explains why the totalitarian left sees us that way. The most egregious aspects of the covid response have subsided but Dr. Clayton J. Baker says one injustice still remains: Health care students are still being subjected to force. Article of the Day: The election year hysteria is growing all around us and it's not getting easier to remain rational. Robert Ringer spells out what's at stake and ponders whether we are facing the final battle for liberty. Sponsors: Life Saving Food TMCP Nation Iron Sight Brewing Co. Quilt & Sew
“The first step towards getting somewhere is to decide you're not going to stay where you are now” - JP Morgan In this episode of the Plan B CRNA podcast, the host, Bobby Jones, discusses how taking action can lead to positive outcomes and how to get started with achieving goals. He emphasizes the importance of setting realistic goals, breaking them down into smaller, more manageable tasks, making a plan, and getting support from others. Bobby also explains how taking action can have a positive impact on mental health, leading to a sense of accomplishment, increased self-esteem, confidence, and momentum. He encourages listeners to start small with exercising and build up from there, and to remember that taking the first step is the hardest part.Nothing Happens Until You Take Action! by Robert Ringer.The Art of Taking Action: Lessons from Japanese Psychology by Gregg Krech.Just Start: Take Action, Embrace Uncertainty, Create the Future by Paul B.

If you've been a copywriter, a media buyer, or a business owner for a while, you have probably realized there are things that happen in this business that people don't talk about a lot. At least publicly. I'm talking about stuff that you kinda wished you knew about ahead of time, so you wouldn't be so floored when it happened to you. Copywriting and direct marketing make up a great business, and I've found most people, most of the time, are pretty decent. But not everybody all the time. And I know we generally like to be constructive and optimistic on this podcast. But I think it's also valuable to know how things can go upside down or sideways. You can't always avoid it, but you may be able to stop it or fix it before it gets worse. Or at least deal with it better than you might have before you knew about what we're going to talk about today. Sometimes I think the best background for being a copywriter is having a previous life as a firefighter, an ER surgeon, or a hostage negotiator. Because on those occasions when things start to go sideways or upside down, it's good to have crisis-management skills in the real world. I wanted to put this show together because I thought about some of the things I wish I had known about before I became a copywriter, a direct response business owner, and later a coach. To be sure, there are a number of annoying, disrespectful, and sometimes sheerly incomprehensible things that do happen. I don't think it's a good idea to believe you can wish it all away just by keeping a positive mindset. You know, because… some days are just better than others. One of my favorite success writers, Robert Ringer, has a “Theory of Sustenance” which says, “Keep a Positive Attitude Through The Expectation of a Negative Result.” A lot of fancy words, right? What does his elaborate theory mean? It basically means: Shit happens. Do not worry about this, or let it throw you off balance. Sometimes, you'll find that negative results are simply an inevitable part of the process of success. Including great success. With practice and intention, you can learn to let go of the pain after a bit of time, and hold onto the lesson. Because there's always a lesson. I figured, we might as well talk about problems, just to be prepared for them before they happen. Everything I'm going to talk about today has happened to me or to someone I know. Download.

We've gone through the shameful first anniversary of the attack on the U.S. Capitol and of the refusal of 147 members of Congress (all Republicans) to certify all the electors from states that voted for Biden, on the basis of no evidence of fraud. So far, no political figure has been charged with any criminal wrongdoing. We've seen 34 voter-suppression bills enacted by 19 Republican state legislatures; at least 8 give state legislatures the power to disregard election outcomes. More than 400 additional voter suppression measures are now being prepared. And we are now witnessing a struggle in the Senate to reform the filibuster so that voting rights legislation can be enacted. All of which raises a basic question: Is there still a common good? I was at the impressionable age of fourteen when I heard John F. Kennedy urge us not to ask what America can do for us but what we can do for America. Seven years later I took a job as a summer intern in the Senate office of his brother, Robert F. Kennedy. It was not a glamorous job, to say the least. I felt lucky when I was asked to run his signature machine. But I told myself that in a very tiny way I was doing something for the good of the country.That was more than a half century ago. I wish I could say America is a better place now than it was then. Surely our lives are more convenient. Fifty years ago there were no cash machines or smart phones, and I wrote my first book on a typewriter. As individuals, we are as kind and generous as ever. We volunteer in our communities, donate, and help one another. We pitch in during natural disasters and emergencies. We come to the aid of individuals in need. We are a more inclusive society, in that Black people, LGBTQ people, and women have legal rights they didn't have a half century ago. Yet our civic life—as citizens in our democracy, participants in our economy, managers or employees of companies, and members or leaders of organizations—seems to have sharply deteriorated. What we have lost is a sense of our connectedness to each other and to our ideals—the America that John F. Kennedy asked that we contribute to.Starting in the late 1970s, Americans began talking less about the common good and more about self-aggrandizement. The shift is the hallmark of modern America: From the “Greatest Generation” to the “Me Generation,” from “we're all in it together” to “you're on your own.” In 1977, motivational speaker Robert Ringer wrote a book that reached the top of The New York Times bestseller list entitled Looking Out for # 1. It extolled the virtues of selfishness to a wide and enthusiastic audience. The 1987 film Wall Street epitomized the new ethos in the character Gordon Gekko and his signature line, “Greed, for lack of a better word, is good.”The last five decades have also been marked by growing cynicism and distrust toward all of the basic institutions of American society. There is a wide and pervasive sense that the system as a whole is no longer working as it should. Racism, xenophobia, and religious intolerance are on the rise. A growing number of Americans feel neglected and powerless. Some are poor, or Black or Latino. Others are white and have been on a downward economic escalator for years. Some have been seduced by demagogues and conspiracy theorists. Thanks for subscribing to my letter. If you'd like to support this effort and be part of the conversation, please consider a paid or gift subscription. Is there a common good that still binds us together as Americans? Yes, and it's not the whiteness of our skin, or our adherence to Christianity, or the fact that we were born in the United States. We're bound together by the ideals and principles we share, and the mutual obligations those principles entail.After all, the U.S. Constitution was designed for “We the people” seeking to “promote the general welfare”—not for “me the selfish jerk seeking as much wealth and power as possible.” During the Great Depression of the 1930s and World War II, Americans faced common perils that required us to work together for the common good. That good was echoed in Franklin D. Roosevelt's “Four Freedoms”—freedom of speech, of worship, from want, and from fear. The common good animated many of us – both white and Black Americans—to fight for civil rights and voting rights in the 1960s. It inspired America to create the largest and most comprehensive system of public education the world had ever seen. And it moved many of us to act against the injustice of the Vietnam War, and others of us to serve bravely in that besotted conflict.Americans sharply disagree about exactly what we want for America or for the world. But if we are to participate in the same society we must agree on how we deal with our disagreements, our obligations under the law, and our commitment to democracy. It's our agreement to these principles that connects us, not agreement about where these principles lead. Some of us may want to prohibit abortions because we believe life begins at conception; others of us believe individuals should have the right to determine what happens to their bodies. Some of us want stricter environmental protections; others, more lenient. We are free to take any particular position on these and any other issues. But as political equals in this democracy, we are bound to accept the outcomes even if we dislike them. Our central obligation as citizens is to preserve, fortify, and protect our democratic form of government. We must defend the right to vote and ensure that more citizens are heard, not fewer. We must require that presidents be elected by the will of the people, and prevent political parties and state legislatures from disregarding the popular vote. We must get big money out of politics so the moneyed interests don't have more political power than the rest of us. Democracy doesn't require us to agree. It requires us to agree only on preserving and protecting democracy. This meta-agreement is the essence of the common good. Those now attacking American democracy are attacking the common good that binds us together. They are attacking America. We must join together — progressives and conservatives, Democrats and Republicans, inhabitants of blue states and of red states, business leaders as well as leaders of nonprofits and of the public sector — to rescue American democracy from those who now seek to destroy it.

Brian breaks down Robert Ringer's "Three Types of people you'll meet in the business world," from his classic book, Winning Through Intimidation. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C4pWvtYlEMw Transcription Robert Ringer's three type theory. Hi I'm Brian Pombo, welcome back to Brian J. Pombo Live. One of my favorite business books out there, Winning Through Intimidation. And it's not a book about how to intimidate people, but how to get around kind of the rules of intimidation, so to speak, that are already exist within human interaction. And great book, it came out in the 70s. It's still a fabulous book today. Robert Ringer is still with us, and he continues to produce articles on regular basis on his website. I believe it's RobertRinger.com. And I want to talk a little bit about his three types theory because it's interesting. But first, I wanted to remind you about my own book, 9 Ways to Amazon-Proof Your Business. If you haven't read it yet, go get yourself a free copy at AmazonProofBook.com. Grab it while you still can free copy AmazonProofBook.com. So let's talk about Robert Ringer, shall we it this is from let's see, this is from chapter four. He calls it the my three unforgettable professors at Screw U. And his three type theory comes down to there's there are only three types of people in business world with the one exception noted above. Okay, the one exception noted above, he's he's talking about. I'll get to that in a second. Let me talk about the three that he mentions here though, type number one, okay. This is the type of person so no matter what type of interaction you're getting with people, these are the type of people you deal with. Number One: "Who let you know that from the outset, either through his words, his actions, or both, that he's out to get your chips. He then follows through by attempting to do just that." That's type number one. Type number Two: "Who goes to great lengths to assure you that he would never dream of pilfering your chips, often trying to throw you off guard by assuring you that he really wants to see you get everything that's coming to you. Then like type number one, and without hesitation, he goes about trying to grab your chips anyways. " Here's Type number Three: "Who like type number two assures you that he's not interested in your chips. Unlike type number two, however, he sincerely means what he says. But that's where the difference ends. Due to any one of a number of reasons ranging from his own bungling, to his amoral standards for rationalizing what's right and wrong. He, like type number one, and two, still ends up trying to grab your chips. Which means that his suppose that good intentions are irrelevant to the final outcome. In summation, no matter how someone posits himself, you would be wise to assume that he will, in the final analysis, attempt to grab your chips." So what's this have to do with anything, right? It has to do with the basic concept that people are people. And no matter how a person holds themselves, in the end, everybody tends to look out for themselves in the end, or their families, they tend to look out for their own interest. And it's a very natural thing. It's not anything to be scared about, or to think that a person's naturally immoral just because they're out for themselves. That's just, it's a survival mechanism. If nothing else, people have to be able to look out for themselves. I deal a lot with the self reliance field. I run the podcast called, the Off The Grid Biz Podcast. Which is all about the self reliance industry, meaning people and products that are encouraging people to become more self reliant in some way. Okay. And the interesting thing is, it's built into that concept of self reliance that people have an interest in being self reliant to begin with, that it's just a natural thing one way or the other. Yeah, in the short run,

So many of us want everything fixed in one go overnight. We think if we were just given the perfect schedule, parenting tip, or sales technique we'd be all set. I've learned this is a lie our brain tells us. We often have everything we need already upstairs in our amazing creative brain. While it is great to continue learning and seeking council it is just as important to take the time to slow down and determine how we want to spend our time and if it aligns with who we are working on becoming. It is my experience that getting deep on a few vital items is so much more powerful than being shallow on one-hundred of them. "The Success of a vision is determined by its ownership by both the leader and the people." -John C. Maxwell "Everything changes for the better when you take ownership of your own problems." -Robert Ringer
Expertise, Vocation, and Gordon's Rule by Larry Beane A pastor that I like and respect made the following observation on social media: I know it's been said before, but I honestly had NO idea so many pastors were in reality experts on political science, medical science, disease control, economic theories, and the like. Clearly I went to a different seminary where they only taught us about Jesus. I'm cool with that, though, I guess. I mean, since talking about Jesus is my job, I don't mind just knowing about Him. Obviously, he's being a little cheeky and addressing an issue of someone going “out of his lane” and speaking to something that, in the opinion of this pastor, he is not qualified to address. I get that. But I think he is taking things too far. And my disagreement with him should not be seen in any way as disrespect. But I do disagree. His comment made me think about the cultural tendency to dismiss what pastors might say with a flippant wave of the hand and a facile roll of the eye, because, they're, well, pastors. Aside from the “religion thing,” what could a pastor possibly say that could have any value? I'm reading the great satirical wartime military novel, Catch-22 by Joseph Heller. The attitude of all of the characters toward the squadron's chaplain is illustrative. He is seen as having no value in the “real world” whatsoever. And he has come to agree with them. Interestingly, in the “real world,” many of the greatest minds in the history of science have been clergy, who have also historically been great writers, poets, philosophers, artists, and professors. Just in my own circle of friends in the world of the clergy, I know pastors who are indeed medical doctors, lawyers, military personnel (including a rear admiral, a colonel, a JAG, and a Navy captain - the latter of which happens to be a retired fighter pilot). I know pastors who are musicians and composers: classical, choral, rock and roll, and even one who plays the banjo (you might know him too). I know pastors who are experts at woodworking, cars, motorcycles, firearms, hunting, farming, leadership and management, literature, film, body-building, health and fitness, baseball, martial arts, comedy, bicycling, running, and a few aficionados and connoisseurs of wine, scotch, and cigars. A good number of pastors are teachers and professors in many and various subjects from grade school to grad school. Many are fluent in several ancient and modern languages. Increasingly, pastors are bi-vocational, and having multiple areas of skill is a matter of survival. In my own life, I've worked retail, loaded trucks in a warehouse, been a corrections officer, had a career as an IT consultant, and recently, was a pretty darn good Uber driver and New Orleans tour guide (if I do say so myself). I'm also a fire service and Civil Air Patrol chaplain. I have been a HAM radio operator for 45 years now (though I don't purport to be knowledgeable on the state of the art of radio as it exists today - but back in the day as a pre-teen, I could keep up with the grizzled WW2 veterans when it came to sending and receiving Morse Code at 50+ words per minute). I was a Latin teacher based almost entirely on self-study. I currently also teach high school, and my coursework includes economics, political science, American history, and literature. So I consider myself a ongoing student of all of these topics as well. I take my study in economics and political theory very seriously, and do a lot of reading in those areas. Whatever I want to learn, I always try to be the dumbest guy in the room - and for some of us (as in myself) this is not a difficult thing. I find that to be a great way to learn a topic well and quickly. It would be strange indeed if I knew nothing about my subject areas in my concurrent vocation as teacher. It goes without saying that I have picked up a few skills along the path of life - in spite of my highest academic degree being a BA in History (the MDiv is not an academic degree). And it also stands to reason that most things I'm terrible at (like everyone else). We're all good at different things. But I suspect most of us pastors do have skills and knowledge that have nothing to do with theology. We should not see ourselves and other pastors (and laymen of both sexes) like the hapless Chaplain Captain Tappman in Catch-22. Most pastors also have other vocations that include being husbands and fathers. And though society treats these holy vocations as if they were a joke, these are among the most important callings of all - and being adept in these familial roles in no way takes away from a man's role as pastor. In fact, they are an addition rather than a subtraction. And for a pastor who is an American citizen and who votes, he should know a thing or two about American history, political theory, the Constitution, and political science in general. He really also ought to know something about economics, since politics often touches upon it. As far as medicine and disease control go, if one has certain equipment, one ought to read up on how to use and maintain it. And this goes for the human body as well. Every owner and operator of a physique would do well to study, research, and have a sense of keeping the apparatus going. This is not to say that every body-owner should charge money to treat other people, but by the same token, knowing a thing or two about diseases and treatments should not be seen as stepping out of one's vocation unless one has a medical doctorate. And everything that I have just said about pastors can, and does, apply to the laity as well. For example, I have nurses in my congregation who are a great resource for medical advice (I had a medical doctor in the parish, but he is now with the Lord). I also have parishioners whom I ask for advice who have no medical training, but who have expertise and experience in natural medicine and supplementation. The last medical doctor I went to admitted quite frankly that a lot of medical doctors are quacks. He is himself a dissident on the government line on masks and Covid. So whether one has a degree or not, caveat emptor (buyer beware) still applies. Professionals can, and do, disagree with each other. It would be scary if they didn't. I have a friend who is a literature professor who has published many outstanding books on military history - with no formal training or certification in that field. I know many people who have never set foot in a university, but who are among the smartest, wisest, and most skilled and erudite people that I know. One would be crazy not to seek out their counsel. I have a parishioner who is an associate concertmaster philharmonic violinist who works as an auto mechanic, is a devoted husband and father, and who is one of my top go-to resources when it comes to cocktail mixology. That is the glorious reality of the doctrine of vocation. I live in South Louisiana, and most people would not believe how many completely untrained, unlettered chefs there are from every walk of life in these environs, whose cuisine is, as they say, “to die for.” And in this part of the country, men often “wear the apron” in the family, as the kitchen may well be as much his domain as is the garage. Indeed, grease may be used to fry a turkey or lube a motorcycle chain. And the guy doing both might well be a state Supreme Court justice or a shelf-stocker at Walmart. Nobody bats an eye. The Lutheran doctrine of vocation is not a slavish reliance on technocracy and experts with a piece of paper from an academic institution or the state. In fact, it was our tradition that forged ahead with opening the Bible to ordinary people so that they could read Scripture for themselves, so as not to rely solely upon theological experts - who were often hoodwinking them. And a person may well have a vocation for something not based on a degree or certification, not based on a government license or trade union card - but simply based on self-interest and self-study. Thanks to the Internet, it has never been easier to become an expert on just about any topic without paying a dime of tuition. This is not to say that everybody is an expert. Far from it. But neither should we assume that someone isn't an expert without letters behind his name, nor uncritically accept the word of those who do. We should use discernment. A friend of mine named Gordon is an attorney. We have attended the same economics seminar and book club for many years. When I first met Gordon, it seemed like he knew everything about everything. At first, I suspected that he was a common blowhard, along the lines of the court-holder from the classic Robert Ringer book Winning Through Intimidation. But, my goodness! Was my suspicion ever wrong! I learned quickly that Gordon really does know everything about everything, like the proverbial Jeeves from the P.G. Wodehouse books. No matter what topic pops up: Japanese culture, the Cuban revolution, economics, philosophy, jurisprudence, American history, warfare, - pretty much everything - he can hold his own with the experts, but in no way comes off as arrogant. Gordon told us his secret. From the time he was quite young, he made a commitment to himself to read for two hours a day. The topic doesn't matter. Just read. And so, whether Gordon has a degree in this or that really doesn't matter. He is a cornucopia of knowledge. Indeed, in this day and age, it is easier to become a renaissance man than it was during the Renaissance. Pastors, I would encourage you to adopt Gordon's Rule. And that goes for laymen of both sexes as well.

Listen along with Robert Ringer and Arkansas Senator Tom Cotton, author of New York Times bestseller Sacred Duty: A Soldier’s Tour at Arlington National Cemetery. Senator Cotton provides details regarding his experience in The Old Guard and its relationship to the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, Section 60 of Arlington National Cemetery ("the saddest acre in America"), and the historical significance of Arlington. He also discusses why precision and discipline are so important in the Old Guard, the idea of a Supernumerary, and his thoughts on what would happen if Iran were to engage in first-strike military operations against the U.S.Senator Cotton's devotion to America and his unwavering belief in the nobleness of its military mission are refreshing in an age where both are under constant attack by the enemies of Western civilization.
In this interview with Robert Ringer, David Webb once again shows why he has a reputation for being one of the calmest, most rational media personalities in America.He first weighs in on the Democratic presidential field and how the candidates magnify the split in the Democratic Party. He also explains why he sees New Hampshire as very important to Bernie Sanders and Joe Biden, but why Iowa is not.Webb says Amy Klobuchar “is done,” Beto is “pretty much gone,” and Pete Buttigieg, though he has a smooth delivery, “has no substance.” As to the other candidates, he dismisses them as having “never showed up.” Lastly, he chimes in on the possibility of Michael Bloomberg and Howard Schulz entering the race, and why he doesn’t believe Bloomberg can win but Schultz can.On the Russian-collusion investigation, Webb gives his take on the people brought in to look at the Trump dossier and the threat to Susan Rice, Loretta Lynch, Susan Power, Huma Abedin, Sally Yates, James Comey, John Brennan, James Clapper, and even Barack Obama.Regarding Christian Amanpour’s outrageous suggestion to shut down Trump supporters who yell, “Lock her up,” Webb dismisses her as “not really a journalist.” On the border crisis and Mexico, Honduras, El Salvador, and Guatemala, he shares his thoughts on the most important things the United States needs to do to bring the crisis under control.Among other things, Webb also dissects the Radical Left's socialist agenda, Charlottesville, the history of Antifa, racism, Stacy Abrams' startling comment about identity politics, and why Republicans are so bad at messaging.
In his most in-depth, wide-ranging interview to date, George Papadopoulos answers Robert Ringer’s probing questions in impeccable detail that is sure to keep high-level Russian-hoax conspirators awake at night. His true story of Deep State treachery sounds like a spy novel, but to the chagrin of intelligence-agency bad actors, it is real life.Listen as one operative after another comes streaming in and out of Papadopoulos’ life: David Kovitch, Claire Smith, Alexander Downer, Stefan Halper, Azra Turk, Joseph Mifsud, Charles Tawil ... the list goes on and on. The climax of this electrifying interview is when Papadopoulos drops a bombshell about Barack Obama and John Brennan.
Tim Star is a Speaker, Author, and Mindset Missionary. Born and raised on the south side of Chicago, his mother was divorced twice. He never knew his father and never connected with his step-father. They struggled for many years with money issues, and he carried that with him when he moved to San Diego, CA in 1987. Tim also brought his blue-collar mentality. Tim worked many different jobs, but spent the greater part of his working career in the computer support arena. At the age of 54, Tim lost a job of 15 years with a phone call. It would be almost 2 years before he worked again. In the meantime, he never suffered the depression or down times the "experts" say he should have. The reason why not turned out to be in the materials he'd been consuming since his 20’s, from people like Wayne Dyer, Robert Ringer, Esther Hicks and others. Today, Tim uses these concepts to help others to see life’s curve balls as a part of the process, rather than as excuses to play the victim card. http://www.timcstar.com http://www.mindsetmissionary.com https://www.facebook.com/MindsetMissionary/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/mindsetmissionary/
Click Here to Watch Trailer At 54, I lost my job by a phone call. "Today's your last day. Go home." I didn't work again for 2 years but didn't suffer depression because of it, or any of the other negative emotions the "experts" say I should have. Then I began to question why. Answer: the ideas from people like Wayne Dyer, Zig Ziglar, Robert Ringer, Richard Bach that I'd been consuming since I was a teenager had reprogrammed my perspective on life and saved me a lot of heartaches, frustration, and grief. And I realized that if I can learn it, others can, too. The thoughts you think determine the way you feel about any given experience. They also determine the actions you take, which in turn determine what happens to you in life. Control the way you think about your life experiences, and you control not only your future but how you feel about it as well.
