In the Hold my Drink - navigating culture with a chaser of civility, and Counterweight podcast, Episode 70, we speak with new co-hosts and crew members, Andrew “AT” of Aspiring Thinkers, Jeff Fullington, and Neil Barnes. Andrew was a Human Intelligence Collector in the U.S. Army who promotes intellectual growth and reasonable discourse; Jeff is a peer counselor and community builder; Neil brings his perspective from the UK with a focus on the role of individual sovereignty in health communities.
The conversation flows, along with the drinks, from personal background and political perspective, through the importance of locus of control and personal agency in therapy, education, and social programs, before arriving at thoughts on autonomy, sovereign citizenship and the role of the state. All discussed with a chaser of civility, of course, and among other concoctions, homemade blackberry wine.
