| 9/2/26 | LFN #260 - Bastrop to Terminate Flock Contract. How to Make this Happen In Your Community | Bastrop, Texas just voted to cover its Flock surveillance cameras and put contract termination on the agenda. Dozens of residents showed up. The city acted in one meeting. Here's how it happened, and how you can do the same thing in your town. In this episode of Live Free Now, John Bush breaks down the Bastrop Flock fight from the inside: the open records requests, the contract clauses nobody read, the difference between the two Flock audit reports that ended Pflugerville's program, and the exact steps activists can use to get automatic license plate readers out of their own cities and counties. Flock isn't the only camera on the pole. This is one battle in a much larger fight against the surveillance state being built around us, and it's one we can win at the local level. WHAT WE COVER:- How Bastrop went from a study committee to a termination vote in two weeks- The two-report trick that hides who's really searching your town's cameras- Why turning cameras off is not the same as ending the contract- The 8-step playbook to remove Flock from your city or county- Why the real goal is banning ALPRs altogether, not just switching vendors Whether you're in a small town or a big city, red county or blue, this is cross-partisan and it's winnable. Over 80 jurisdictions in 28 states have already ended their Flock contracts. Yours can be next. Fighting bad policy is not the ideal way to create greater freedom. The best way is building the alternatives to government and big tech that let us live free right now. If you want to organize beyond politics and help build those alternatives, join us for our next Freedom Cell social dinner at Community Gardens here in Bastrop County: https://www.facebook.com/events/1391604606249179/ Keep up with everything from John at livefree.academy/newsletter Free daily email. | 1h 09m 57s | ||||||
| 8/26/26 | LFN #259 - Bastrop Packed the Room Against Flock Cameras. Here's What Happened. | Yesterday I went to a Bastrop City Council workshop because Flock cameras were on the agenda. Was the first time I've engaged a local or state government in a LONG time. It was a packed house. The council said it was the most people they'd ever had at one of these workshops. Person after person got up to speak against Flock. Exactly one person registered in favor, and they didn't even speak. I got the chance to speak twice during citizens communication, and I'm playing both of those videos on today's show. Here's what most people don't realize about these cameras. According to the DeFlock website there are around 30 Flock cameras in Bastrop, and only 12 of them are actually controlled by the Bastrop Police Department. And "controlled" is doing a lot of work in that sentence, because cities don't own these things. They lease them from Flock. All the data flows up to Flock, and Flock uses it to train their AI models. On today's show: The full footage of both times I addressed the councilWhat actually happened in that room and what the police chief had to sayMy honest take on engaging at the local level, when it's worth your energy and when it isn'tHow to push back on Flock in your own townAnd the exit and build solutions that matter more than any of it Also this week: Tomorrow at 12:00 pm Central we're going live for the free Trifecta Effect webinar with Sacred Honor Educational Fellowship. Trusts, private membership associations, and ministries, and how they fit together.https://divinepma.com/trifecta And if you're planning to come to Exit & Build 6, now is the time. Ticket prices go up August 31st at midnight. November 5th through 8th at Sovereignty Ranch in Bandera, Texas.https://exitandbuild.com | 42m 43s | ||||||
| 8/19/26 | LFN #258 - David Avocado Wolfe Joins the Exit & Build 6 Lineup | David Avocado Wolfe is joining us in person at Exit & Build 6, November 5 through 8, 2026, at Mollie Engelhart's Sovereignty Ranch in Bandera, Texas. Three decades as one of the most recognizable voices in natural health and superfoods. Longevity, nutrition, raw and living foods, herbalism, soil and mineral density. And one of the loudest voices telling people not to outsource their health to institutions that haven't earned the trust. Which is exactly what exit and build is about. You can't build a sovereign life on a body that depends on the system you're trying to exit. He joins Joel Skousen, Michael Joseph and the Sacred Honor crew, Jeremy Cordon of Goldback, Jason Crowe and Mike Winner of Qortal, Matt Powers, Curtis Stone, Doug and Stacy, River and Imani of Haven Village, the Meders of Privacy Academy, and a full music lineup.

| 8/13/26 | LFN #257 - Joel Skousen: Strategic Relocation, Home Security, and Escaping What's Coming (Never Released) | Joel Skousen has spent nearly five decades helping people answer one question: where should you live when the systems around you start to fail? This talk has never been available publicly. Joel delivered it at Exit & Build 2, and we're releasing it now for the first time. In it he walks through the core of his life's work: Strategic relocation and how to evaluate where you live right now. Population density, prevailing winds, nuclear and military target proximity, water access, growing season, state law, and the neighbors you'd actually be depending on. Joel breaks down why he looks west of the Mississippi, which states he's changed his mind about, and the mistakes people make when they relocate for the wrong reasons. Home and retreat security. Joel is an architect who's designed high security residences across North America, Canada, and Latin America. He gets into secure room design, EMP-protected power, water and food storage, and what actually holds up versus what just feels safe. And the honest assessment of the threats. Grid failure, EMP, economic collapse, war, and the long-term consolidation of surveillance and control. Joel doesn't sugarcoat any of it, and he'll tell you why he refuses to. His view is that optimism is what keeps people from preparing. About Joel Skousen Former Navy and Marine Corps fighter pilot turned architect. He began writing The Secure Home in 1979, making him one of the genuine pioneers of the modern preparedness movement. He's the author of Strategic Relocation: North American Guide to Safe Places, still the definitive reference on threat-based relocation, and co-author of The High Security Shelter Book with his son, a structural engineer. He has published the World Affairs Brief every week for decades. Joel is speaking at Exit & Build 6 We just announced it. Joel is joining us in person at Exit & Build 6, November 5 through 8, 2026, at Sovereignty Ranch in Bandera, Texas. He's giving a full talk plus a hands-on workshop, going deeper than he could in the time he had here. Nuclear and fallout protection, secure water and food storage, EMP-protected long-term power, evading social unrest, and the secure room design he's spent a career refining. You'll be able to walk up and ask him about your own property, your own plan, your own situation. Exit & Build 6 is four days on a working regenerative ranch in the Texas Hill Country with speakers and builders across the counter-economy, decentralized tech, private realm structures, food and land, and lawful remedy. The whole event is built around implementation zones, where you don't just take notes. You leave with your crypto wallet funded, your privacy gaps closed, your land or community plan drawn up, and your private realm pathway mapped. Ticket prices go up August 31st.

| 8/5/26 | LFN #256 - How to Get Local Businesses to Accept Gold & Silver (16 Years of Counter-Economy Lessons) | I've spent over 16 years building the counter-economy. Trading precious metals for goods and services with real businesses. Actual trades, actual people, actual yeses. In this video I break down exactly how I do it. The scripts, the mindset, and the moves that get a business owner nodding instead of staring at you like you just asked to pay in seashells. You'll learn: How to walk up to a farmers market vendor and get a yes on the spotWhy pitching a brick and mortar is a completely different game than pitching an online shopHow to know what to pay so you're never overpaying or insulting the person across the counterThe objections you'll hit before you even open your mouth, and how to handle them This is what's worked for me across hundreds of real transactions... building a parallel economy that doesn't need the dollar or the banking system to function.

| 7/28/26 | LFN #254 - Pragmatism Is Killing the Freedom Movement (Here's What to Do Instead) | On today's Live Free Now show, I'm breaking down a recent post I saw shared by Alec Zeck about pragmatism versus principles, and why so many in the freedom movement choose pragmatism over consistent principles rooted in the philosophy of liberty. I'll break down why I became a full on anarchist, a voluntaryist, and why I reject government wholeheartedly. And I'll share why we need to go further than just philosophy, into actually applying the philosophy of liberty. In this episode: Why I reject government wholeheartedly as a way to organize societyWhy government has failed civilization time and time againWhy it's responsible for more death and destruction than any other institution in existenceHow we build systems that actually align with the philosophy of liberty Want to see freedom in action?
