Counterflow with Buck Johnson

Jason Rink is back on the show this week. Jason is a documentary filmmaker whose many recent works are deemed too controversial by many in the Libertarian world. His newest documentary is on Nick Fuentes and was set to show at a libertarian film festival, but they canceled the film and the discussion panel about the film. In a painful twist of irony, he was offered to be on a panel discussing the topic of cancel culture. We also discuss the latest show trial on the events of January 6th, as Jason was actually at the Capitol that day.

I am honored to have Justin Marler on with me this week. Justin is one of the first members of the band Sleep, as well as the creator of the 'zine "Death to the World". DTTW was an Orthodox Christian handmade magazine with a metal/punk rock aesthetic that Justin created when he was a Monk at the St. Herman's of Alaska Orthodox Monastery in Platina, CA. Justin came of age in the Bay Area punk rock scene, living with guys from Green Day and Rancid in a club/warehouse in the East Bay. They were a brotherhood united in rebelling against the norms and ways of the modern world... that was until he noticed that he was still longing for something more fulfilling and less nihilistic. He happened to meet an Orthodox Christian nun who introduced him to Orthodoxy, and his world was forever changed. He became a Monk for seven years and lived what he realized was actually the last true rebellion. We discuss this unique journey, his book, his 'zines, his music, and more.

My guest is writer, online marketing pro, and Director of Marketing at Allsides.com, Julie Mastrine. Julie has a heck of a story, and as we detail it, she brings to light many of the supposed "truths" we are taught about left-wing politics, New Age spirituality, and feminism. She was deep into all of those and had enough awareness to realize that it's all completely nihilistic and antithetical to true happiness. She discusses what lessons she learned along the way to being a productive, happy, and mentally and spiritually healthy woman and Orthodox Christian.

This week, Dr. Mark McDonald is back on the show, and you're in for an excellent episode. Dr. McDonald is a psychiatrist, author, and podcaster. Today we are discussing the phenomenon that is plaguing societies across the West: miserable women and cowardly men. He writes: "As a society, we have allowed this group to define our current social norms." Why is this happening? Which came first? Is it by design? We also get into young people and the fact that often, they do not know how to communicate. Why is this happening? What can be done about all of the problems discussed in this episode? Dr. Mark McDonald answers all this as well. Find Dr. Mark McDonald's substack here: Find his podcast here: Find his website here: Sponsors: Expat Money Summit: - Register for FREE!

My guest today is the proprietor of my favorite Substack and the host of the Pete Quiñones Show, Pete Quiñones. Pete and I discuss some of the themes he's been writing about in his Substack newsletter. They include the culture war we are in, what the sides represent, why he doesn't call himself a libertarian, how he's changed over the last two years, and the spiritual aspect of this battle between good and evil.

My guest today is author, journalist, and proprietor at the Canadian Patriot, Matthew Ehret. We discuss the current geopolitical events as well as how they relate to the bigger picture on where things are headed. There are a number of powerful groups that work in the shadows yet seem to always have a way of influencing the way things happen throughout the world. The situation in Ukraine right now is a microcosm of the bigger picture. The players involved, the spiritual and ideological battle, the balance of powers, and more. What about Elon Musk? Is he on the side of good, or is he a player in the game? How can libertarianism be of help in this fight? Are there any legitimate politicians out there who are fighting for "good"? We tackle all of this and more in this episode. Get more from Matthew Ehret here: ...and here: ...and here: Sponsors: Expat Money Summit: - Register for FREE!

My guest this week is a Senior Fellow at the Clairemont Institute, Jeremy Carl. Jeremy wrote an article for American Greatness called, "Refusing What We Are: The Evil of Children's Transgenderism".

It's an uncomfortable topic for many folks, but my guest, Scott Horton is here with us to tackle it. Scott, as you likely know, is one of the brightest minds on the planet when it comes to foreign policy. Today we start with a discussion on the Azov Battalion fighting with the Ukrainian military.
