About Me
Freedom is a tremendous and precious inheritance. To develop our potential, thrive in it, and pass it along to each successive generation is our highest calling. I write here to give my thanks, and to seek ways we can cultivate the resilience, independence, courage, and indomitable spirit necessary to sustain a culture that cherishes liberty.
I produce the “No Fear Pioneer” podcast, post on X, GETTR, and Gab, and frequent The Stratosphere Lounge and Bill Whittle’s site.
