On today’s Radio Ranch, I opened with a head‑scratch: why would a DOJ led by consummate insiders suddenly green‑light a grand jury to hand down multiple counts against the Southern Poverty Law Center? We compared how the “tea leaves” were reading just days ago with this apparent non sequitur, tracing threads through the FCC’s origins, DOJ power dynamics, special counsels, and the ecosystem of NGOs that shape narratives. I asked listeners to help pressure‑test the possibilities—diversion, factional infighting, or a deeper shift. Then we shifted to a meaty, real‑world legal fight. William called in to debrief his Georgia ad valorem tax hearing, walking us through strategy, courtroom dynamics, residency versus citizenship arguments, objections, affidavits, and next‑step appeal options. The community weighed in with practical tactics (preserving issues for appeal, transcripts, avoiding ex parte pitfalls), classic cases to study, and even a few off‑topic but useful life hacks (ticks, poison ivy, bentonite clay). We closed by inviting new folks to dig in, get educated, and bring calm, well‑sourced arguments to their own local battles. Global Voice Radio (network): https://globalvoiceradio.net Euro Folk Radio: https://eurofolkradio.com Paul English Live (site): https://paulenglishlive.com FreeConferenceCall (platform we use for live callers): https://www.freeconferencecall.com The Matrix Docs (show site mentioned): https://thematrixdocs.com Federal Communications Commission (FCC): https://www.fcc.gov U.S. Department of Justice: https://www.justice.gov U.S. Attorney’s Office, Southern District of New York: https://www.justice.gov/usao-sdny Special Counsel’s Office (DOJ): https://www.justice.gov/sco

From the Radio Ranch, we kicked off a lively Wednesday show with Paul and our regulars, spotlighting where you can hear us live and on replay and welcoming new listeners who found us through syndication. We dove into audience questions about political status, affidavits, revocation-of-election paperwork, and practical next steps for dealing with agencies, emphasizing self‑education, building an administrative record, and using plain, verifiable notices. We also compared notes on tools the community uses—sites, courses, and call‑in platforms—and reminded folks that our lines are open daily to help newcomers navigate the process.Beyond housekeeping, we touched on current chatter around state and federal players mentioned by callers (from Texas’s AG office to national media figures), the distinction between platforms carrying the program, and why we keep resources free and decentralized.

On today’s Martes edition from the Radio Ranch, I open the mics to a rollicking, sometimes heated town-hall about power, freedom, war, history, and who really pulls the strings. We mark Patriot Day belatedly and range from Lexington and Waco to modern geopolitics and the drumbeats of war, while challenging each other on narratives, propaganda, and personal responsibility. You’ll hear callers dig into sovereignty tactics, affidavits, veterans’ struggles with the VA, and the costs of endless conflict—plus a detour through revisionist World War II history and the old IG Farben cartel that splintered into familiar corporate names. Along the way we debate Trump, Zionism vs. Marxism, media manipulation, and Roy Cohn’s courtroom tactics; swap reading lists and long-form interviews; and even wander through theology—from Job to Jasher—and how belief, love, and personal conduct shape the commons. It’s classic Radio Ranch: open phones, sharp elbows, strong coffee—truth-seeking with the audience driving the agenda.'BASF (successor to parts of IG Farben)': https://www.basf.com'Bayer (successor to parts of IG Farben)': https://www.bayer.com'Sanofi (incorporated Hoechst, a successor to parts of IG Farben)': https://www.sanofi.com'Agfa-Gevaert (AGFA, photography/graphics; historic IG Farben lineage)': https://www.agfa.com

Kicked off the week at the Radio Ranch with some unexpected tech turbulence: my main rig’s Windows license threw a fit after a hardware swap, so we limped along on a backup mic while lining up support. From there, we dove into the rapidly shifting Middle East headlines (the brief quiet on Friday didn’t last through the weekend) and the media blackout we felt with InfoWars’ transition downtime. Callers weighed in on whether Trump’s recent statements signal decline or strategy, the erupting Epstein-file chatter, and how to separate facts from tribal narratives. We also revisited why this show exists: showing newcomers a practical, low‑cost, non‑confrontational path to step outside the federal presumptions—no court battles required—plus a spirited back‑and‑forth on national identity, the anthem, and what “service” really means. The lines lit up around Colin Kaepernick’s protest, chevron deference and the administrative state, and a primer on spotting narcissistic behavior. We ended lighter—but useful—with a listener clinic on colloidal silver gear and safe sourcing, and a few community notes: where to catch our streams, how to join the live call‑in, and a reminder to new folks to jump in with questions.

On this Saturday edition from the Radio Ranch, I open the lines for new voices and longtime friends while we keep the stream humming across our partner outlets. We talk shop about our weekend call‑in format and why we started these Saturday sessions during the 2020 lockdowns—to give working folks a live place to ask questions, share updates, and compare notes. From there, we dive into “status” basics and affidavits, pointing newcomers to the State Department’s page on Certificates of Non‑Citizen Nationality and encouraging people to read, write clearly, and keep their paperwork tight. We also kick around how to stay out of needless bureaucratic crossfire, the difference between fear and facts, and why calm, documented process beats panic. Listeners steer us into wider topics—media literacy, current events, and parallel platforms—plus practical tools. We spotlight community projects like Food For Thought Radio, take a quick tour of BSV/HandCash/Exodus for folks exploring blockchain rails, and flag documentaries like FrankenSkies and the Video Advice channel that callers referenced. As always, this was an open‑mic, open‑notes session: bring your questions, check the resources, and join us live next time.EuroFolkRadio – A Voice for European People Worldwide: https://eurofolkradio.com/Free Conference Call – live call‑in platform used for the show: https://www.freeconferencecall.comU.S. State Department – Certificates of Non‑Citizen Nationality (overview and eligibility): https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/legal/travel-legal-considerations/us-citizenship/Certificates-Non-Citizen-Nationality.htmlFood For Thought Radio (FFT Radio): https://fftradio.com/HandCash – wallet/app often used with BSV: https://handcash.io/Exodus – multi‑asset crypto wallet: https://www.exodus.com/BSV Blockchain (Bitcoin Satoshi Vision) – project site: https://bsvblockchain.org/FrankenSkies – documentary site (Matt La

In this candid, unscripted Friday night conversation on Health and Wellness Radio, Paul and I dig into why we believe informed listeners are empowered listeners. We discuss concerns about today’s healthcare culture, the importance of personal responsibility for wellness, and stories that shaped our skepticism—from COVID-era hospital protocols and patient advocacy to dental health, detox practices, and cleaner everyday products. We also reflect on media that sparked discussion (from Person of Interest to The Passion of the Christ), public figures who’ve influenced the discourse, and practical tools for evaluating what you bring into your body and home. We cover audience questions on topics like copper, consent forms, mesh-free hernia repair options, and safer screening alternatives, then share resources and apps that can help you scrutinize ingredients, products, and claims. The goal isn’t fear—it’s clarity, so you can make thoughtful choices for yourself and your family.'Environmental Working Group (EWG)': https://www.ewg.org'EWG Healthy Living App': https://www.ewg.org/apps'Think Dirty App': https://www.thinkdirtyapp.com'Yuka App': https://yuka.io'Cornucopia Institute': https://www.cornucopia.org'International Academy of Oral Medicine and Toxicology (IAOMT)': https://iaomt.org'CureZone': https://www.curezone.org'Person of Interest (TV series)': https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Person_of_Interest_(TV_series)'The Passion of the Christ (film)': https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Passion_of_the_Christ'Jim Caviezel': https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jim_Caviezel'Celine Dion (Official Site)': https://www.celinedion.com'Weston A.

On this Friday edition of the Radio Ranch, I’m joined by Brent Allen Winters for a wide‑ranging conversation that moves from current events and ceasefires abroad to first principles at home: the English common law, Magna Carta, usury, administrative courts, and the sovereignty of God. Brent walks us through star‑chamber history, the exchequer and “pipe rolls,” Morton's Fork, and why words and traditions from centuries past still shape how power works today. We also field thoughtful listener questions on predestination, capitalization myths in “patriot” legal circles, and practical trust law—plus where to study more through his Winters Inn Law School. We recap highlights from Paul English Live (including the documentary Franken Skies), share where to find our live streams and archives, and point you to primary sources and courses Brent recommends—Magna Carta, Coke, McKechnie, and his own resources at commonlawyer.com.

Tonight I welcomed filmmaker and activist Matt Landman for a wide‑ranging, plain‑spoken look at geoengineering: weather modification past and present, what the skies are telling us, and how the public is slowly catching up. Matt walked us through historic programs like Operation Popeye and NASA’s CARE releases, current experiments such as Harvard’s SCoPEx, and the day‑to‑day signatures he says farmers, gardeners, and city‑dwellers can observe—plus the EMF angle and why he founded a protective‑clothing effort. We also talked practical action: waking people up one conversation at a time, and his Stop Geoengineering London gathering at Marble Arch on Saturday, June 20 (2:00 PM), with speakers, music, and a chance to meet likeminded folks. Along the way we touched on censorship and platforms, community building via markets and meetups, and the bigger cultural battle—how fear, peer pressure, and a captured media keep people quiet, and why that tide can turn. If you’re new to the topic, this is a friendly on‑ramp; if you’re seasoned, it’s a nudge to get out from behind the keyboard and connect in real life.'Stop Geoengineering London' Rally (June 20, Marble Arch): https://stopgeoengineeringlondon.co.ukHarvard SCoPEx (Stratospheric Controlled Perturbation Experiment): https://scopex.harvard.eduOperation Popeye (history of cloud seeding in Vietnam): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_PopeyeNASA – agency overview (context for atmospheric experiments): https://www.nasa.govNEXRAD weather radar (background on ground‑based systems): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NEXRADThe Club of Rome (background mentioned): https://www.clubofrome.orgWorld Economic Forum (background mentioned): https://www.weforum.orgRumble (show streams): https://rumble.comYouTube (show streams): https://www.youtube.comTelegram (app for show/group chats):

On today’s Radio Ranch, we kick around show logistics and shout-outs to the tech backbone that helps us simulcast Paul English Live each Thursday at 3pm Eastern while inviting listeners to join via call‑in and multiple streaming mirrors. We also wander from studio hiccups to food and health: carnivore vs. mixed meals, sourcing clean ingredients, and practical tools people use to check products and supplements. From there, the conversation turns to law and history. We revisit “income tax day,” field audience questions, and dive into a long, spirited read‑through of Justice A. H. Ellett’s critique of the Fourteenth Amendment connected to Dyett v. Turner (Utah, 1968), plus related cases like Dred Scott and Georgia v. Stanton. We also note ongoing debates around Zionism and anti‑Zionist Orthodox voices, acknowledging the controversy while keeping the focus on ideas, sources, and how to verify claims for yourself.'Paul English Live': https://paulenglishlive.com'Paul English Live (Podhome feed)': https://serve.podhome.fm/paul-english-live'Global Voice Radio Network (site hub)': https://www.globalvoiceradio.net'Radio Soapbox': https://radiosoapbox.com'Euro Folk Radio': https://eurofolkradio.com'FreeConferenceCall (call‑in platform)': https://www.freeconferencecall.com/global/online-meetings'Abbeville Institute (Southern history resources)': https://www.abbevilleinstitute.org'Abbeville Institute – YouTube Videos index': https://www.abbevilleinstitute.org/youtube-videos/'Non‑Ratification of the Fourteenth Amendment (Justice A.

As we mark April 15, I walk through a big‑picture history of the U.S. income tax and the legal machinery that surrounds it. We revisit Woodrow Wilson’s 1913 repudiation of “dollar diplomacy,” discuss how centuries‑old English revenue practices and merchant law influenced American collection procedures, and unpack why Supreme Court cases like Murray’s Lessee v. Hoboken Land & Improvement Co. still get cited. I also outline practical takeaways listeners asked about: sequencing federal vs. state filings, why building a strong administrative record matters, and how modern “self‑help” collection remedies grew out of commercial law. Along the way I highlight resources that shaped my own thinking—Charles Adams’s For Good and Evil and Those Dirty Rotten Taxes, the C‑SPAN Booknotes interview with Adams, and primary‑source links to key statutes and doctrine (26 CFR 1.1‑1; UCC §9‑609 on repossession). If you want to dig deeper into Austrian‑school perspectives, I point you to the Mises Institute and a Charles Adams essay archive on LewRockwell.

On this April 14 broadcast, I opened the phones for a wide‑ranging, listener‑driven conversation about the anxieties of tax season, civil liberties, and what we call “national status”—how people can better understand the systems they’re dealing with. We compared perspectives on federal debt, monetary policy, bond markets, and how policy choices ripple into everyday life. I shared personal stories from the 1990s about surprise visits from federal agents, and we invited new listeners to bring questions, with an eye toward tomorrow’s deep‑dive on the history and mechanics of the modern income tax. We also touched on media sources, critical thinking, and keeping discussions fact‑focused amid conflicting reports and online noise. Listeners contributed readings, case law references, and preparedness resources; I highlighted the importance of learning the big concepts first, then applying them calmly and lawfully.

I kicked off this Monday’s Radio Ranch sorting through a thin morning news slate—Rex Jones’ promised launch of “My American Journal” on Rumble didn’t materialize, so I asked listeners what live morning shows they trust for straight overnight updates. From there we ranged widely: the reshuffle at InfoWars, why a real news-first morning program matters, and blunt reactions to Trump’s recent rhetoric and foreign-policy moves amid rising Middle East tensions and talk of blockades. Callers weighed in—sometimes hot—on allegations and counter-allegations around Trump and Epstein, and on where to find credible reporting when the usual streams go dark.In hour two we dug into citizenship and law: Dred Scott, Plessy, the Slaughter‑House Cases, and United States v. Wong Kim Ark, plus a PBS documentary on the Chinese Exclusion Act. We also explored religious and historical through-lines listeners raised—Kabbalah, the Zohar, Sabbatai Zevi, Jacob Frank, Zionism, and modern anti‑Zionist Jewish voices like Neturei Karta—along with readings recommended by the audience (Michael A. Hoffman II). Lighter moments included Masters chatter and a quick sidebar on cord‑cutting/streaming.

Saturday at the Radio Ranch, I opened with a quick tour of where you can find us live and archived, then we dove straight into a caller-led masterclass on payouts, tax forms, and status. Together we unpacked how to receive a legal settlement without tripping unwanted certifications on a W‑9 or W‑4, when and how to use “exempt” notations and an affidavit (“only submitting in order to be paid”), and why forming or reviving a single‑member LLC and filing Form 8832 as a disregarded entity can be a clean lane to get paid. We also touched on 1040‑NR and W‑8BEN contexts, where state forms like Alabama’s A‑4 fit, and why documenting your status and notices (AG/SOS) up front can prevent friction later. From there, we fielded practicals: pawn‑shop firearm redemptions and ATF Form 4473; the national vs. U.S. citizen vs. nonresident‑alien tangle; and the Supreme Court touchstones (Afroyim v. Rusk; Wong Kim Ark) that keep showing up in these conversations. We wrapped with where to catch our live streams (including PeerTube via Soapbox) and how to pull transcripts from the archives so you can follow the breadcrumbs step‑by‑step.Euro Folk Radio: https://eurofolkradio.com/SoapboxTV (PeerTube instance): https://soapboxtv.net/Podhome (podcast hosting): https://www.podhome.fm/Rumble (platform): https://rumble.com/Twitch (platform): https://www.twitch.tv/FreeConferenceCall (join live): https://www.freeconferencecall.com/IRS — About Form W‑9: https://www.irs.gov/forms-pubs/about-form-w-9IRS — Form W‑4 (Employee’s Withholding Certificate): https://www.irs.gov/formw4IRS — Form 8832 (Entity Classification Election) PDF: https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/f8832.pdfIRS — About Form 1040‑NR (U.S. Nonresident Alien Income Tax Return): https://www.irs.gov/forms-pubs/about-form-1040-nr

On this Friday Night Health Call (April 10, 2026), I open with a reminder to return to the breath and center ourselves amid outside noise. We dig into discernment—separating signal from noise in health information—and then range across audience questions about EMF concerns, blue light hygiene, seasonality and immunity, and practical steps for resilience. We also debate a viral claim about “cell towers and subliminal messages,” contrasting it with calmer, actionable habits like improving sleep, sunlight exposure, and reducing screen glare and nighttime blue light. From there, we get hands‑on: detox basics (including calcium bentonite clay), gut health and biofilm, simple food swaps, and why combining certain macronutrients can backfire. We revisit historical hyperthermia/immunotherapy ideas via Dr. William B. Coley, and discuss safe, home‑based ways to raise core temperature (sauna, hot baths) alongside oxygenation practices and breathing. We close with cacao’s antioxidant research highlights, smoothie staples like bee pollen and spirulina, and a nudge to explore inner peace resources to pair mindset with physiology. Disclaimer: This show shares opinions and general information only—please consult a qualified clinician before acting on anything you hear here.'ABC Ozone (ozone systems and info)': https://abcozone.com/'MoreMito (mymitoboost referral now resolves here)': https://moremito.com/'TeraHertz Life (redirect target from iteraplanet.com)': https://www.terahertz.life/pgbiener/'i4joy (resources connected with Prem Rawat’s message)': https://i4joy.com/'Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (context for immunotherapy history)': https://www.mskcc.org/'Citizens Commission on Human Rights (CCHR)': https://www.cchr.org/'William B.

On today’s Radio Ranch, I opened the phones for a spirited, sometimes fiery roundtable on conscription, constitutional power, and what makes a war just. With Brent Allen Winters riding shotgun, we contrasted the draft with the historic duty of the militia, dug into separation of powers, and challenged the notion that the Supreme Court is “final” outside its own branch. We revisited Vietnam, habeas corpus showdowns under Lincoln, and why territorial jurisdiction and domicile matter when people argue about the Fourteenth Amendment and birthright citizenship. Callers brought sharp questions and history—Wong Kim Ark, the Federalist Papers, jury sovereignty, and the line between fundamental rights from God and civil rights from government. In the back half, we veered into JFK lore and media power, the “bankers’ wars” thesis, Bitcoin and financial resets, Europe’s vulnerabilities versus U.S. energy and food security, and practical preparedness. Agree or disagree, it was a full-on civics lab with a live wire of history, law, and current events.'Brent Allen Winters (Common Lawyer)': https://commonlawyer.com'The Federalist Papers (Yale Avalon Project)': https://avalon.law.yale.edu/subject_menus/fed.asp'U.S. Constitution (Congress.gov)': https://constitution.congress.gov/'United States v.

Live on April 9, 2026, I (Paul) kicked off Paul English Live #134 with Eric in hour one, trading weather notes, cold remedies, and a curious YouTube rabbit hole about crop circles as alleged “free‑energy” blueprints. We explored how truly disruptive tech might survive—open‑sourcing, decentralizing, and distributing plans at scale—while weighing the human and political roadblocks. From there we ranged across energy policy and costs (with a Lord Monckton clip), media trust, data‑center sprawl, digital ID fears, everyday resilience, and the simple art of stocking a pantry. Hour two welcomed whistleblowing midwife Victoria Rickson, who shared a raw, detailed account of NHS maternity pressures, understaffing, culture, and why she left to advocate for mother‑ and baby‑first care—plus a strong case for home birth and community education. In hour three, Etta from Chicago joined to talk costs, prep, censorship, and organizing locally, as we wrapped with a frank, sometimes wry look at control systems, free speech, and the need for grounded, human alternatives.'Paul English Live' links hub: https://paulenglishlive.com'Food For Thought Radio' (live stream and chat): https://fftradio.comOpera Browser (mentioned for accessing streams): https://www.opera.comSignal (secure messaging, discussed for decentralized coordination): https://signal.orgTelegram (secure-ish group coordination, mentioned): https://telegram.orgSession (privacy‑focused messenger, mentioned): https://getsession.orgLinux kernel (open‑source OS referenced): https://www.kernel.orgBitcoin (decentralized network referenced): https://bitcoin.orgRick Beato’s channel (music/production commentary mentioned): https://www.youtube.com/@RickBeatoThe Slingshot Channel – Jörg Sprave (automatic crossbow example mentioned): https://www.youtube.com/@JoergSpraveNHS (general reference

On today’s Radio Ranch, I open the show reflecting on the magic of radio—why audio still rules the theater of the mind—and we take a spirited tour through broadcast history: early chaos on the AM band, the FCC’s role in directional arrays, and legends like WLW and Wolfman Jack. We also update listeners on our multi‑platform distribution and some tech housekeeping to improve archive audio, then pivot into two big threads: highlights from recent Supreme Court oral arguments touching Wong Kim Ark and the state/national citizenship debate, and a live case study as William walks us through his Georgia ad valorem tax fight, strategy, and filings. The back half ranges from Masters week memories (Magnolia Lane, course lore, and why Augusta is a once‑a‑year ritual) to infrastructure and geopolitics—SCADA vulnerabilities, energy and nuclear safety debates, and heated listener exchanges about Iran, Israel, and U.S. policy. It’s classic Ranch: open phones, real‑time analysis, and a reminder that many hands make light work—everyone can do something, even if it’s just lending your voice.Federal Communications Commission (FCC): https://www.fcc.govASCAP (performance rights organization): https://www.ascap.comSESAC (performance rights organization): https://www.sesac.comWLW 700 AM (Cincinnati): https://700wlw.iheart.comWBT News Talk (Charlotte): https://wbt.comKMOX 1120 AM (St. Louis): https://www.audacy.com/kmoxWLS 890 AM (Chicago): https://www.audacy.com/wlsam890WOWO 1190/92.3 (Fort Wayne): https://wowo.comMasters Tournament (leaderboards, coverage): https://www.masters.comClemson University (horticulture programs mentioned): https://www.clemson.eduMises Institute (policy/legal analysis referenced): https://mises.orgLew Rockwell (commentary referenced):

As we wrap a two‑day listen‑along to last week’s Supreme Court oral arguments on birthright citizenship, I walk through the core fault lines: allegiance versus domicile, what “subject to the jurisdiction” meant in 1868, and whether the Fourteenth Amendment’s exceptions are truly a closed set. We revisit United States v. Wong Kim Ark and the English common‑law roots of jus soli; examine how advocates leaned on Lynch v. Clarke and Ludlam v. Ludlam; and test hypotheticals about ambassadors, tribal nations, and unlawful presence. Callers jump in with sharp historical context—from the Know‑Nothing era and Reconstruction to Slaughter‑House, Plessy, and Brown—while we keep our eye on what a modern ruling could mean for families, states, and Congress’ Section 5 power.We also take a few minutes for show housekeeping—where to find the live stream, replays, and call‑in line—and set the table for an open forum on practical implications once the Court rules.

Today I walked listeners through day two of the Supreme Court’s oral arguments over birthright citizenship and the Fourteenth Amendment. We paused and unpacked key moments from both sides—Justice Thomas’s questions on state and national citizenship, Chief Justice Roberts’s framing of tradition, and the ACLU’s rebuttal led by Cecillia Wang—while tracing how cases like Wong Kim Ark, Elk v. Wilkins, Yick Wo v. Hopkins, The Schooner Exchange, and Ex parte Quirin are being used to define “subject to the jurisdiction thereof.” We also talked about domicile, temporary sojourners, long‑standing statutory language in 8 U.S.C. § 1401, and the Civil Rights Act of 1866 and Expatriation Act of 1868—keeping our focus on principles, not personalities.Along the way, we compared what the justices said with historical sources and our audience’s questions, clarified common misconceptions (for example, that a Social Security number is proof of citizenship—it isn’t), and set the table for finishing this rare, illuminating look at how the Court thinks through citizenship, allegiance, and protection.

On this Monday edition of the Radio Ranch, I opened with a quick catch‑up on tech hiccups, Easter weekend, and why I sometimes embrace the “pregnant pause” on live radio. Then we dug into two big threads: the real‑world impact of the data‑center boom (from noise to strained local water systems) and the current AI hype cycle—why some operators may be “out over their skis” and what that means for users and infrastructure. From there, we spent most of the show unpacking last week’s Supreme Court oral arguments on birthright citizenship. I walked through the recurring themes—allegiance, jurisdiction, and domicile—plus the historical scaffolding around the Fourteenth Amendment and cases like Wong Kim Ark, Elk v. Wilkins, Dred Scott, Minor v. Happersett, and more. Callers weighed in with thoughtful pushback and questions, and we paused the audio at 37:42 to resume tomorrow as a continuing teaching series on the roots and limits of citizenship in American law.
