Professor Wall and the Jester discuss the recent developments in northwest Africa and southern Europe where Morocco appears to be taking steps geopolitically to blackmail Spain into supporting Morocco’s efforts to take away the independence of the neighboring Sahrawi Arab Democratic Republic. What is especially reprehensible about these actions? What are the background reasons why this dispute has been allowed to drag on for so long? What dangerous precedent could this set for other self-determination movements if Morocco succeeds in its efforts?

ONE OF OUR BEST EPISODES YET! Professor Wall and the Secession Minstrel discuss the news that Attorney General Pam Bondi is continuing a lawfare campaign against Missouri, begun by her predecessor Merrick Garland, to undermine Missouri’s sovereignty and it’s right under the Tenth Amendment to protect the people’s rights of gun ownership under the 2nd Amendment from unconstitutional attempts to restrict it by the federal government. Why is this unsurprising considering certain other stands taken by Pam Bondi such as wanting to ban Hate Speech? What domestic fallout could this case have and would it be enough to drive Missourians to secede from the DC Empire?

Professor Wall and the Secession Minstrel discuss the surprising news out of the Granite State where the New Hampshire government has now legalized the efforts of those who wish to disconnect from the aging and inefficient government power grids and put together their own sources to power their homes and businesses. Why is this such a huge development both in updating the aging and vulnerable electric grid and in advancing the cause of personal freedom and the free market in the future Granite Republic?

Professor Wall and the Secession Minstrel discuss the situation for the people of Annobon Island off the coast of Africa where they are seeking independence in order to escape the genocidal treatment meted out to them by the aging but brutal dictator of Equatorial Guinea, who controls Annobon Island territorially. Can the Annobon Independence movement, working from exile due to the harsh domestic crackdown on the island, achieve their goals through gaining help from other nations such as Argentina? Or is the more likely road to a successful achievement of independence lie in the unfolding populist upheaval which is beginning to assert itself across Africa?

Professor Wall welcomes Daniel McAdams and Chris Rossini back to "From Steal to Secession AM" for a discussion on where America stands as Donald Trump's second term begins to really unravel due to foreign policy blunders, a collapsing domestic economy and dangerously spiking domestic tensions in the wake of Charlie Kirk's murder. Has anything good for the people of America come out of Trump's second term? What are the odds of civil war in America in the near-future? Can National Divorce be accomplished in America in a way which restores peace and opens the doors for prosperity? How much of what is unfolding is real and how much is a façade for the public eye?
Professor Wall welcomes the Foreign Minister of the microstate of Liberland, Thomas Walls, to “From Steal to Secession AM” to discuss Liberland, it’s history, it’s fight for recognition among the nations of the world, and what it hopes to accomplish for the people who have chosen to be part of this nation. Why is there such opposition to the establishment and growth of Liberland coming from certain government sectors in the Balkans? Who might be behind this effort to deny Liberland the recognition it deserves despite the fact that they seek peace and pose no threat to anyone? How is Liberland going about seeking to obtain recognition from other nations? What self-governing and economic principles make up the foundation of Liberland as a nation? What can Liberland teach other self-determination and self-government movements across the world?
