(Apologies for the Audio Issues) Professor Wall and the Secession Minstrel discuss the great news out of Louisiana where the new town of St. George has successfully won its legal battle to secede from the city of Baton Rouge. There was a big revelation about the motives of those who oppose secession that came out of this saga which many people missed though. What was it?

Professor Wall and the Secession Minstrel discuss the commentary from prominent Idaho radio host Bill Colley suggesting that, with federal government incompetence on full display in the Gem State thanks to the massive wildfires destroying substantial parts of Idaho’s forests, maybe Idaho needs to start seriously exploring secession from Washington DC. What is the likelihood of a movement for Idaho Independence being organized in the near-future? Will Colley’s suggestion of such an idea spark the secession conversation among state residents? How would an Idaho secession effort affect the Greater Idaho movement in Eastern Oregon, Northern California and Southeastern Washington?

Professor Wall and the Jester discuss the report released on San Bernardino County’s relationship with California and the analysis given on the county’s secession prospects. Why is the report such a nothingburger in stark contrast to the local media narrative surrounding it? Why are the arguments given against secession so utterly ridiculous? What should movement leader Jeff Burum do to continue the cause of San Bernardino County secession?

Professor Wall and the Reporter discuss the recent escapade in Catalonia where Carles Puigdemont upstaged the Spanish Elites’ artificially-created triumph in the formation of the new Catalan government and instead showed the world the true state of affairs in Catalonia and how the struggle for independence is far from over. What exactly happened in Catalonia and what did it prove to the world? What will the long-term effects of this situation be?

Professor Wall welcomes the president of the Texas Nationalist Movement, Daniel Miller, to “From Steal to Secession AM” to discuss the Texas Nationalist Movement’s recent re-organization effort, the importance of educating and building up grassroots support for any independence movement to have a chance at succeeding and various other aspects of what makes a successful independence movement.
This piece from the Acton Institute speaks very much to our views here at "On This Terrestrial Ball" on what the relationship should be between family and the workplace. Here we always says that "Family Comes First". That means occasionally we will have gaps in our publication schedule when we need to tend to matters which affect family. However we are still committed to spreading the word on the causes which are important to the everyday people so that EVERYONE will be able to put family first in the not-too-distant future and it is why we value your support so much! Be a rebel, raise a family and show & tell the family how much you love them! https://rlo.acton.org/archives/124383-your-job-is-not-your-family.html
