Professor Wall and the Jester discuss the ugly scenario unfolding on the island of New Caledonia where France seems to be taking drastic steps to try and stop the momentum towards independence for New Caledonia by violating local people’s rights. Why is there so little information about the situation there available to the general public? Why did France feel it necessary to arrest the independence leaders without charges and ship them to France? Who is really behind the violence unfolding on the island?

Professor Wall and the Secession Minstrel discuss the largely unnoticed news out of Florida that the Sunshine State’s Chief Financial Officer is putting the wheels in motion for gold and silver to be recognized as legal tender and the CFO’s reference to taking this step to protect against the collapse of the dollar. Is this another indication that preparations are going on inside Florida for the state to chart it’s own path as the Empire collapses?

Professor Wall and the Jester discuss a prediction from the great geopolitical forecaster and analyst Martin Armstrong that the Democratic Party is due to split up in the near-future. Is there evidence on the ground politically which reinforces Armstrong’s prediction? If so, why is it happening? What would the long-term benefits be of a Democratic party split-up? Why would the Republican party NOT benefit long-term from this?

Professor Wall and the Secession Minstrel discuss a number of different news stories which, when analyzed inside the bigger picture, point to a rather disturbing conclusion. Are the Elites putting pieces in place to take resistance out of the electoral realm and into more dangerous realms? What should Secession believers watch out for in order to avoid being labeled as scapegoats as a result of these Elitist machinations? Is there ways that these Elitist plans could end up backfiring on them for the benefit of the people?

Professor Wall welcomes the two main leaders of the Calexit Now movement, Marcus Ruiz Evans and Jason Wright, to "From Steal to Secession AM" for a wide-ranging discussion on their efforts to promote self-determination not only for their own people, but for people across the world. What is the Calexit Now movement? Are left-oriented states being neglected by the Elite classes in Washington DC just as much as right-oriented states are? What is the Global Summit on Self-Determination? How is it looking to assist self-determination movements across the world?
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
To replace the normally scheduled podcasts for this week, the Professor pens a short piece pointing out how the delusional imperialist rhetoric emanating from many different world leaders is actually a sign of the impending collapse of the 200 year old "Age of Centralization" which has brought widespread suffering and catastrophic results to the world over the 19th, 20th and 21st Centuries. For all believers in secession this should be a greatly encouraging sign. https://keepgovlocal.substack.com/p/the-impending-end-of-the-age-of-centralization
