![The Great Replacement: Britain's Endgame ft. Simon Elmer [SFP094]](https://pbcdn1.podbean.com/imglogo/ep-logo/pbblog13147610/SFP094_Episode_Artwork_1X1_300x300.jpg)

In part 2 of my conversation with author, activist, and founder of Architects for Social Housing - Simon Elmer, we confront one of the most urgent and controversial questions facing Britain today - mass immigration.
We explore the economic, political, and ideological forces driving mass immigration, and examine how legal frameworks and government institutions are being reshaped in dangerous ways. Are we seeing the rise of a two-tier society and a deliberate dismantling of a culture? If so, what are the consequences for sovereignty, justice, and the very idea of Britishness?
Our conversation doesn’t shy away from the most difficult topics: the role of Islam in modern Britain, the impact of “woke” ideology on law and governance, and the growing sense of alienation among those who feel their homeland slipping away. Is civil conflict inevitable, or can a new generation find the courage and means to resist what many see as an existential threat?
This is a raw, unfiltered dialogue about identity, power, and the future of the UK - a conversation for anyone willing to grapple with uncomfortable realities about a nation and a people under threat of "Great Replacement".

The Property Ponzi: A Crisis by Design ft. Simon Elmer [SFP093]

What if the housing crisis isn’t a natural disaster, but a carefully manufactured reality?
In the first part of my conversation with Simon Elmer, we tackle the foundations of the housing market, and the global forces that shape it. Simon’s journey - from co-founding Architects for Social Housing to dissecting the machinery of policy, finance, and power - offers a rare lens on how crises are engineered, and who stands to gain. The conversation explores the uneasy alliance between government and corporate interests, and the way public needs are transformed into private profit.
Is the dream of home ownership just another illusion, propped up by policies that serve the few at the expense of the many? How did we get here, and what would it take to imagine something radically different?
Stay tuned for part 2 of this conversation where we get into the murky topic of immigration and the slow death of the United Kingdom.Please help to spread the word!

Deep War and the Architects of Consent ft. Brad Miller [SFP092]
Wednesday Apr 02, 2025
Wednesday Apr 02, 2025
In this episode I talked with Brad Miller, a former Army officer whose journey of awakening led him to question long-held assumptions about the world. From his evolving views on 9/11 to his courageous decision to leave the military after refusing the COVID vaccine mandate, Brad offers a unique perspective on the zeitgeist of the resistance movement.
Brad and I delve into the concept of "deep war," exploring the unseen forces that manipulate events and shape our perceptions. What are the true motivations behind global events, and how are narratives crafted to control the masses? We examine the role of powerful networks and the nature of the spiritual battle being waged for our minds and souls.
We also discuss the complex and often contradictory roles of figures like Trump and Elon in the current landscape. Are they heroes or pawns in a larger game? What is the significance of "revelation of the method," and how is coded language, symbology and even occultism used on the global stage?
Join us as we attempt to cast light on some of the the darker forces at play in in the "alternative" movement, and discuss practical ways to stay sane and reclaim sovereignty.

No Masters, No Slaves ft. Teace Snyder [SFP091]

Friday Mar 21, 2025
There is an objective war between good and evil, and we are all caught in it. What does it mean to live in alignment with natural law? Are we unknowingly complicit in systems designed to keep us blind?
In this conversation, I sit down with filmmaker, activist, and podcaster Teace Snyder to explore the nature of control, moral relativism, and the forces shaping our world. We discuss the deception embedded in modern institutions, the manipulation of perception, and the uncomfortable truths hidden behind accepted narratives.
Teace shares his journey—from an early passion for storytelling to his work in independent media—offering a raw perspective on the struggle to remain authentic in a world built on illusion. We question the role of government, the nature of morality, and whether our modern systems are steering us toward liberation or deeper enslavement.

![The Value of Nothing: Debating Fiat with John Hankey [SFP090]](https://pbcdn1.podbean.com/imglogo/ep-logo/pbblog13147610/SFP090_Episode_Artwork_V02_300x300.jpg)

The Value of Nothing: Debating Fiat with John Hankey [SFP090]
Monday Feb 10, 2025
Monday Feb 10, 2025
Following on from my last show, in this episode I engaged in an impromptu debate with John Hankey, revolving mainly around money and the perception of value.
We go deep into the fundamental nature of money, power, and control. At the core, we debate what 'fiat money' truly means and how it affects politics, economics and society at large. We clash over the role of central banking, gold, whether economies should be built on scarcity or on what people actually need, and, crucially, whether you can even separate scarcity from need.
But beyond economics, this conversation is about power—who wields it, who benefits from it, and how it shapes the world around us. This one is a real collision of perspectives, and whether you agree, disagree, or find yourself somewhere in between, this debate will push you to think deeper about the very foundations of money, value, and control.

Power, Politics, and the Scripted Illusion ft. John Hankey [SFP089]
Monday Feb 10, 2025
Monday Feb 10, 2025
In this episode I spoke with filmmaker and researcher John Hankey to unravel the hidden forces shaping global power. We explore the deep entanglements of Trump, the Rothschilds, and Israel, questioning how control is wielded at the highest levels. Is Trump truly a rogue outsider, or is he playing a carefully scripted role?
John takes us deep into the JFK assassination, revealing overlooked evidence that challenges everything we thought we knew. From doctored footage to the forces pulling the strings behind the scenes, we ask: who really governs the world, and how far back does their influence stretch?
We also dive into the recent assassination attempt on Trump, dissecting inconsistencies that suggest it may have been something other than what the mainstream narrative claims. Is the freedom movement being manipulated by those it seeks to oppose? Who controls the so-called “alternative” narratives we trust?
This conversation challenges the official story at every turn, peeling back layers of deception to expose the unsettling realities beneath. If you’re ready to question everything, this episode will take you deep into the rabbit hole.

Monday Jan 27, 2025
In this episode, I sit down with Jason Bassler, co-founder of The Free Thought Project and Police the Police, to explore a web of provocative questions. How do we push back against institutional censorship and reclaim the narratives they’ve stolen? What happens when technology outpaces the legal system, leaving outdated laws powerless in its wake?We delve into the monumental release of Ross Ulbricht, examining not only the fight for his freedom but the larger philosophical battle it represents. How do we navigate the blurred lines between responsibility, innovation, and control in an age of decentralized tools?Jason shares his concerns about Bitcoin’s evolving role in the financial landscape. Has it become a Trojan horse for government control, or does it still hold the revolutionary promise of decentralization? We grapple with the tension between Bitcoin maximalism, privacy coins, and the broader implications of digital currency adoption.Together, we confront the risks of placing too much faith in centralized figures like Trump, Elon Musk, and others who dominate the freedom discourse. Are they allies in the fight for liberty, or just another illusion of authority? How do we remain vigilant, cautious, and steadfast in resisting manipulation while celebrating wins like Ross’s release?If you’ve ever wondered what it truly means to resist, innovate, and stay vigilant in an age of digital and ideological warfare, don't miss this conversation.

Tuesday Dec 24, 2024
Tuesday Dec 24, 2024
In this 2024 addition of my annual roundtable conversations, we reflect on the year past, touching on key events and developments that shaped the world. But as is often the case, the discussion takes a turn into philosophical territory, exploring deeper questions about the nature of connection, the search for meaning, and the path ahead. This episode became more than just a review of the year - it’s a meditation on how we navigate the chaos of life.
As my favourite conversation to date, this episode is filled with rich insights and reflections on the forces that shape our lives. The discussion weaves through the personal and the universal, exploring the concepts that are at the core of the human condition, and how spiritual and Biblical teachings can serve as a guide in precarious times.

The Bitcoin Machine Hits $100K [SFP086]
Saturday Dec 07, 2024
Saturday Dec 07, 2024
Bitcoin has reached $100k - a milestone that signals not just financial triumph but a deeper shift in power and responsibility. What does it mean to live in a world where individuals, not institutions, hold the keys to wealth? How do we navigate the allure of material gain without losing sight of the values that matter most? This episode delves into the philosophical, economic, and spiritual dimensions of a new monetary paradigm.
Exploring Bitcoin's evolution from niche technology to global force, we must ask the question: What kind of society does this create? Will we fall into the same traps of greed and excess, or can we rise to become better stewards of this new power? Reflecting on the meritocratic potential of Bitcoin, this episode wrestles with the consequences of scarcity, and the interplay of wealth, power, and morality.
From practical tips on responsible Bitcoin adoption to reflections on idolatry and the pursuit of meaning, this episode challenges listeners to think beyond price charts and ask: How can we build a future on a foundation of rock, not sand?

The Spiritual Trap of Idolatry [SFP085]
Thursday Nov 21, 2024
Thursday Nov 21, 2024
In this solo episode, I dive into a topic I’ve been wrestling with recently - how we so often chase spiritual fulfilment in the wrong places. It’s something I’ve noticed in myself repeatedly, whether through my obsession with curating the perfect music playlist, my need to experience everything in travel, or the way I’ve thrown myself wholeheartedly into work and other pursuits. Each time, it felt like I was looking for something deeper, something meaningful, but in places where it could never really be found.
I reflect on the idea of idolatry—turning material things or experiences into false gods—and how this theme shows up in the teachings of Christianity and other philosophies, like Buddhism’s emphasis on non-attachment. Why are we so drawn to seeking spiritual satisfaction in things that ultimately leave us unfulfilled? Is this a flaw in human nature or a challenge by God for us to reject the temptations of the material and instead be guided by something greater?
This episode is a short and sweet. It’s a reminder to myself - and maybe to you as well - that true spiritual fulfilment won’t be found in the material. Instead, it requires us to shift our focus toward the immaterial, toward the source, toward God. I hope these musings resonate with you as much as they’ve helped me work through my own questions.
