LFN #230 - Exit the Beast System and Enter the Private Realm w/ Michael Joseph
In this conversation, John Bush sits down with Michael Joseph, founder and lead director of Sacred Honor Educational Fellowship, to explore the path that led him into private realm work and why he founded Sacred Honor in the first place.
Michael shares his personal journey, the gaps he saw in how people were trying to exit the system, and the deeper principles that guided the creation of the Trifecta Framework. Together, they walk through why private contracts have held such power for centuries, how they function in real life, and how they form the foundation of lawful private organization.
You’ll also hear an overview of how private contracts, ministries, trusts, and Private Membership Associations fit together as a coherent framework for governing your affairs outside the public system with clarity and integrity.
If this conversation resonates and you want a deeper breakdown of how the Trifecta works in practice, you’re invited to join the FREE Trifecta Effect webinar, where we go step by step through the full framework.

He reveals how 'nation building' serves as a guise for expanding control and discusses the shadows of central banking and imperial interests fueling these actions. Grove connects global propaganda tactics to personal empowerment, pushing listeners to reclaim their focus and build lives independent of the empire's influence. It's an eye-opening dive into geopolitics and personal freedom.

LFN #228 - Wearables, Surveillance & the Medical Control Grid (And How to Opt Out)
Your health data — your steps, your heartbeat, your daily patterns — is becoming part of a growing surveillance network. And health insurance companies are playing a major role in advancing it.
In this episode, we sit down with Andy Schoonover, CEO of CrowdHealth, to uncover what’s really happening behind the rise of wearables, medical data tracking, and the expanding digital health grid. Andy breaks down how Big Insurance, Big Tech, and global institutions are merging to monitor, score, and influence human behavior in ways most people never notice.
Andy explains how CrowdHealth is creating a parallel healthcare system rooted in transparency, community, and personal sovereignty — with no tracking, no AI monitoring, no bureaucratic oversight, and no corporate middle layer. It’s a model fueled by real people supporting one another.
For anyone who values privacy, autonomy, and freedom from the technocratic medical system, this episode delivers clarity and direction.
This is healthcare on your terms — and a powerful step toward true independence.
CrowdHealth is revolutionizing how we handle medical bills.

LFN #227 - Get Your Head Out of Your A** and Build Something
Let’s cut the s***.
The world’s coming apart at the seams—technocracy rising, war on the horizon, economies in shambles, trust in government dead in the water.
Everyone feels it.
And while most are still stuck scrolling, whining, and waiting for someone else to save them… we’re here to build.
In this episode, John Bush lays it out straight:
✅ Why now is the moment to rise
✅ Why decentralized, private, freedom-first systems aren’t just a good idea—they’re a necessity
✅ And why YOU need to stop playing victim, get your hands dirty, and create something real
We don’t have time for your doubts.
We don’t have time for your excuses.
IT'S GO TIME!
Believe in yourself.
Step into your power.
Make your move.
BUILD OR BE BROKEN.

Digital ID is NOT about convenience.
It’s about control.
Pair it with CBDCs, AI surveillance, and social credit scoring… and you’ve got the infrastructure for digital tyranny.
But here’s the wild part:
Most people have no idea how to protect themselves.
If that’s you — don’t worry.
You can fix it in one afternoon.

LFN #224 - Digital ID and the Beast System: How to Opt Out with Faith and Courage
Digital ID systems are expanding across the world and becoming a key part of the growing technocratic control grid. From finance and healthcare to travel and online access, digital identity is being positioned as a requirement for participation in society.
In this episode of the Live Free Now Show, John Bush explores what digital ID is, how it’s being implemented across sectors, and what it means for those who value privacy and freedom. We'll also discuss ways to begin opting out and protecting yourself from the tightening grip of digital surveillance.
We’ll dig into:
What digital ID really is and why it's being pushed globally
How identity systems are being used to usher in centralized control
Real-world paths to opt out and live free in both physical and digital realms
How faith, adversity, and spiritual growth can strengthen your resistance to the beast system
John will also share personal insights on how challenges and setbacks can become fuel for awakening—and how staying spiritually rooted is one of the most powerful tools for freedom.
Whether you’ve already taken steps to resist or you're just starting to question the system, this episode will offer clarity, strategy, and inspiration.

LFN #223 - Opting Out of the Conspiracy: Why Waking Up Isn’t Enough (w/ James Corbett)
The predator class is building a global technocratic control grid and millions are waking up to it.
But here’s the hard truth: waking up isn’t enough.
In this episode of the Live Free Now Show, John Bush sits down with legendary researcher James Corbett of The Corbett Report to break down:
The true nature of the conspiracy
How the “truth movement” sabotages itself
Why understanding the problem is only the first step
And how agorism offers the most powerful solution we have
James Corbett has been sounding the alarm for over 15 years, covering everything from 9/11 and central banking to technocracy and eugenics. But what sets him apart is his focus on actionable solutions.
Bring your questions, we’ll be taking comments and inviting audience participation throughout the stream.
About James Corbett:
James is the founder of The Corbett Report, an award-winning independent news and analysis site. Since 2007, he’s produced thousands of hours of media dissecting the deep state, false flags, global finance, and technocratic agendas — all while empowering viewers with tools to take back their sovereignty.

LFN #222 - Everything is an Offer: Understanding Natural Law with Tom Barnett
I first heard Tom Barnett speak at Confluence last year — and man, it hit hard.
He gave a powerful talk on how everything is an offer — in law, in life, in the spiritual realm. And that we all get to choose how we respond.
That message stuck with me. It was raw, empowering, and packed with real truth. I knew I had to bring him on the Live Free Now Show to share that insight with all of you.
In this episode, we dive deep into Natural Law, sovereignty, and Tom’s personal journey — from growing up questioning the system in Australia, to navigating courts and injustice, to healing chronic fatigue not through medicine, but through alignment with Natural Law.
Tom doesn’t claim to be a master. But his open mind and grounded way of teaching make him one of the most powerful messengers I’ve come across. He breaks down complex spiritual and legal ideas in a way that’s simple, clear, and direct.
We also talk about The Humble Kingdom — the platform he and his wife Summah launched in 2025 as a response to what people need most right now: clarity, healing, truth, and sovereignty.
If you’ve ever felt trapped by systems that don’t serve you… or wondered how to step fully into your power while staying grounded and free — this conversation is for you.
Don’t miss it.
Subscribe, hit the bell, and join us for this potent episode of Live Free Now.

LFN #221 - Technocracy Is Rising... Here’s How to Escape It
On this episode of Live Free Now, I’ll be recapping the Escape the Four Horsemen of the Technocracy webinar — breaking down the key takeaways and why the window to opt out is shrinking fast.
I’ll also be giving some updates on the crazy price action in the crypto markets and sharing some big news on the private Bitcoin front — specifically with Zano, a project making major moves in the privacy space.
In the second half of the show, I’ll be joined by Justin Arman, founder of CiVL, a bold new streaming platform built for people who want to exit the system and build a freer world. Think Netflix for liberty-lovers. No woke programming. No propaganda. Just empowering documentaries, shows, and discussions, including the brand new 10-week Opt-Out Series hosted by Derrick Broze and I launching October 15th.
We’ll talk about why this series matters right now, and how you can get involved.
