On today's episode of Felony Friday John welcomes Lynn Espejo back to the show. Lynn previously appeared on Episode 110 to talk about the rampant prosecutorial misconduct in her case. Her appearance was prior to reporting to serve her prison time. She's on the show today to share her experience in the federal prison system.  Lynn was convicted on February 8, 2017, after an eight-day jury trial, and was sentenced to 45-months in federal prison, of which she served 27 months, before being released to home confinement during COVID-19. During her incarceration, Lynn's blog, Inside-The-Walls, started out as a way for her to vent her frustration at being indicted and convicted for a crime she did not commit, and what she saw as a broken criminal justice system. However, it soon became a voice against the corruption, fraud, and violation of inmate rights she witnessed while incarcerated at Federal Prison Camp Bryan located in Bryan, Texas. Many times, Lynn was subjected to retaliation by BOP staff for continuing to blog while incarcerated.  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

On today's Electric Libertyland, Brian vents his frustrations about Jo Jorgensen's #BlackLivesMatter "actively anti-racist tweet, and why it's a libertarian paradox. Later, he dips and dives through news on California's COVID re-lockdown, China's international ban on free speech about Hong Kong, Seattle idiocy, Vermont's making criminals out of food scrap tossers and more cancel culturing. Oh, and the MSM swings and misses on the Boogaloo. www.lionsofliberty.com/ell185 https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/bravo-beer/id1516736767 Learn more about your ad choices.

In today's flagship episode of Lions of Liberty, Marc is joined by Matt Warner, president of the Atlas Network and editor of Poverty and Freedom: Case Studies on Global Economic Development. Marc and Matt discuss why major institutions like the CDC and WHO always cause harm to those they are supposedly meant to help, regardless of the intentions of those helping. Matt describes how the Atlas Network encourages individual freedom to help lift people out of poverty and stem the tide of world hunger, and how the failures of major institutions during the coronavirus pandemic have provided an opportunity for reform to truly solve world hunger through decentralization and free markets.

On today's episode of Felony Friday John is joined by Chad Marks. Chad is well known in the criminal justice community for the incredible works he's done to help other incarcerated individuals to get their freedom. Chad did this all while serving his own sentence. Chad is known as a Jailhouse lawyer. Although he has no formal legal training, he has used his gift for understanding the law to give back.  In February of 2003 Chad was convicted of Conspiracy to Distribute 50 grams or more of Cocaine Base. When the case was taken to trial and he was sentenced to serve 40 years in prison. His co-defendants, who committed the same crimes, pled guilty and were sentenced to far less time. In October of 2018 the judge who sentenced Chad wrote a letter to President Trump in favor of his clemency. Finally, last month on June 25th Chad was released from prison on compassionate release. Chad Marks walked out of Federal Prison after serving 17 years. And he spent the vast majority of those 17 years working to free his friends and brothers behind bars.

In today's flagship Lions of Liberty podcast, Marc welcomes back John Perkins of "Confessions of an Economic Hitman" fame to discuss his new book "Touching the Jaguar!" John describes his time with local tribes in South America decades ago, how they helped to realize how our perceptions shape our reality, and how he learned to "Touch the Jaguar" through a healing ayayuasca ceremony. Through his experiences as an "economic hitman", a philanthropist and a shaman, John shares his unique philosophic outlook on how we can change the world by moving away from a "death economy" and towards a "life economy."

On today's episode of Felony Friday Rick Schwetz joins the show. Rick reached out a few weeks ago in order to advocate for his friend Eddie McDevitt, who is serving life in prison for a tragedy resulting from a bar fight. In 1983, Eddie got into a fight with a former cop, the cop died. Eddie was charged with capital murder and ended up with life in prison. Eddie should have been free 31 years ago. If he fought a barber or a taxi driver, he would have been out of prison long ago.  Rick did time with Eddie and says he saved his life while in prison. Rick did 5 years for a drug conspiracy charge. He made it clear that the reason he wanted to come on the show was to advocate for Eddie. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
