Free Cities, Ciudad Morazán, Libertarianism, Autonomy, Decentralization, ZEDEs, Honduras Politics, Próspera, Oligarch Conspiracy, Entrecomms, Entrepreneurial Communities, Freedom, Network States. - Timothy Allen speaks with Massimo Mazzone Massimo Mazzone is the founder of Ciudad Morazán. We talk about the growing Free City movement and the idea that you don’t need libertarians to create a libertarian society. Massimo discusses how decentralized, intentional communities are expanding since 2020, moving the Overton window, and attracting people seeking autonomy and freedom. He explains the legal and political challenges facing ZEDEs in Honduras, the growth of Morazán despite pandemic setbacks, and the role of private governance in shaping cooperative, self-sustaining communities. The conversation also touches on network states, diaspora-driven community building, and the potential for entrepreneurial communications (“Entrecom”) to scale these free city experiments globally.

He also discusses Croatia’s paradoxical stance, legal hurdles, and the gradual softening of attitudes from local authorities. Beyond borders, Thomas highlights Liberland’s ambition to build a global libertarian community, attract supporters worldwide, and create real-world alternatives such as The Ark, a pioneering community project on the Serbian side of the Danube.

Welcome to bonus episode number 4 of the Free Cities Podcast. These bonus episodes are available exclusively to our subscribers on Fountain.fm, and I’ll be dropping them periodically throughout the year, especially during the weeks when subscribers already have early access to the current main episode. . If you're not on Fountain, you can access the episode here: https://fountain.fm/episode/CznBcyiApWPOqLrYaiZS . Today’s bonus episode is a Plan B Hangout, in which Giacomo Zucco interviews me. According to their website, Plan B Network “Aims to provide the best tools and educational content worldwide, empowering people to regain their sovereignty, from individuals to communities. We are here to help you along your Bitcoin journey.” It’s an educational platform, and Giacomo himself is a bit of a Bitcoin OG, most people in the space know him. I’m currently in the process of writing an educational syllabus for Plan B Network about Free Cities - If you’re listening to this sometime in the future, check out their website at planb.network for the course. Here’s a quick summary of today’s episode so you can decide whether or not to dive in: "In this episode of the Plan B Hangout, Timothy Allen from the Free Cities Foundation discusses the concept of Free Cities, their evolution, and their intersection with Bitcoin and individual freedom. Key topics include the Free Cities Foundation, Prospera in Honduras, competition between governance models, sovereign individuals versus Free Cities, securing a Free City, the relationship between the Free Cities movement and Bitcoin, filtering out scammers and unrealistic projects. And finally, we talk about seasteading." I didn’t know this beforehand, but Giacomo was actually a seasteader back in the day. I might have even rekindled his interest in it. All in all, this should serve as a pretty solid overview of the current Free Cities space and its integration with Bitcoin. Apologies in advance for my croaky voice and occasional shouting; I really need to work on my online interview game… and I will! Enjoy the conversation.

Authoritarianism, Privacy, Surveillance, Bitcoin, Freedom, Technology, Government Control, Autonomy, Community, Responsibility, Democracy, Censorship, Data Sovereignty, Resistance. - Timothy Allen speaks with Susie Violet Ward. Susie is a financial analyst and journalist specializing in bitcoin content. She is also the CEO and co-founder of Bitcoin Policy UK. In this conversation we explore the bittersweet reality of living at a time when technological innovation and financial revolution coexist with growing surveillance and control. From the UK’s Online Safety Act to digital IDs and the normalization of data collection, we unpack how our modern conveniences may be costing us more than we realize. Yet amid the concerns, you can find hope, in Bitcoin, in community, and in the power of individual action.
