TBNS: Data Centers, H-1B Visas, Citizens United, & the Iowa Senate Race in the Middle of It
Dr. Thomas Laehn joins Brian Nichols to reveal how Iowa's data center fight, eminent domain, and Citizens United money all run through the 2026 Senate race - and why voters keep getting handed two bad options.Laehn is the Greene County Attorney and the first Libertarian in Iowa history to win a partisan election. Then he won it again. Now he's on the November 3 ballot against Ashley Hinson and Josh Turek for Joni Ernst's open seat.He wrote a bill that passed the House and passed the Senate. It never became law. What happened to it is the part nobody in Des Moines wants repeated.Brian pushes back hard - on young men and H-1B hiring, on the cultural fight libertarians keep dodging, on whether one party is objectively worse than the other. Laehn's answer isn't the one you're expecting.And then a former professor of constitutional law says something about the word "republic" that we had to sit with for a second.Give it a listen.CHAPTERS0:00 The Third Party Line Iowa Just Broke2:01 Preacher's Kid, Professor, Prosecutor2:48 He Won as a Libertarian.

TLPP: Your Therapist is Crazy w/ Andrew Hartz
Andrew Hartz is a psychologist and the founder of the Open Therapy Institute — a national directory of vetted, non-activist therapists, plus a peer-reviewed journal, conference, and podcast. He wrote a Wall Street Journal op-ed about political activism in mental health, got a grant to do something about it, and hasn't stopped since. We talked about: what an activist therapist actually looks like (APA's division on psychoanalysis lists 90 talks with zero mention of therapy, evidence, diagnosis, or treatment — but plenty on colonial domination, carcerality, and proximity to whiteness); how APA accredited a drag show called "Feel the F***ing Fantasy Redux" for continuing ed credits; a keynote speaker who co-translated Communism for Kids and wrote Abolish the Family; clinics diagnosing patients differently based on their race; patients being referred out for having the wrong politics; how mental health activism is backfiring on the people it claims to help (secondary gains and the evidence against rewarding symptoms); when this all started (earlier than you think — 2014, accelerating through 2019); why Lacanian nonsense writing infected academic psychology and what that sentence actually is; what CBT can and can't do; humor as a mature defense mechanism and why patients who laugh have better outcomes; why AI therapists worry Andrew more than most people realize; and Lou volunteering to coach soccer for a team of first graders despite having never played the sport.

FF: Liberty and Security: Ross Ulbricht on What Prison Taught Him About Freedom
Ross Ulbricht, founder of Silk Road, spent over 11 years behind federal prison walls — sentenced to die as a first-time, non-violent offender. Pardoned by President Trump on his second day in office, Ross took the stage at the 2026 RNC midterm convention to deliver a speech that cuts to the heart of what government power can do when turned against its own people. In this episode, John Odermatt breaks down Ross's speech — the parallels between Ross's imprisonment and the government overreach ordinary Americans experienced during the Biden years and COVID lockdowns, the false choice between liberty and security, and the growing list of pro-liberty actions from Trump's second term. Whether you're a skeptical libertarian or a committed supporter, this is a conversation about the nature of power and what happens when the machinery built to protect us gets pointed at us instead.

TBNS: Why Natural Cancer Therapies Never Get FDA Approved (DOCTOR EXPLAINS)
Dr. Francisco Contreras joins Brian Nichols to reveal why natural cancer therapies never get FDA approved and why the answer has nothing to do with a conspiracy. It's a $1 billion price tag and a missing patent... and the surgical oncologist who runs Oasis of Hope Hospital in Tijuana lays out the math.Here's the argument. Getting anything through the FDA means proving it safe and effective in human trials - roughly a billion dollars. Do that with a new drug and you get a patent to earn it back. Do it with something natural and you get nothing... because the day it's approved, anyone can make it. So nobody runs the trial. Not because it failed. Because nobody can afford to find out.Contreras has spent 45 years at the hospital his father founded in 1963 - the same hospital that got called every name in the book. And he doesn't dodge it. He talks about what chemo does well, where he says it doesn't, and why patients end up in Mexico for therapies he says were developed in American labs in the first place.Is he right? That's for you to decide. Brian pushes on the third-party approval question, the "nobody gets fired for buying Cisco" problem in medicine, and what a family actually does when they've been told there's nothing left to try. Contreras' answer... make an informed decision, and talk to your doctor. His book is free on his site so you can read both sides.Educated. Enlightened. Informed.
