By Randall Richards If you don’t listen to anything else but these two people speak this week, and also share, you’re doing a good thing. Listen to the ad-free the audio file below: Tom Renz is a prominent U.S. attorney, political commentator, educator and businessman. He has gained national attention for his work challenging the pandemic related policies and mandates as well as advocation for individual liberties, medical freedom and informed choice.
Tom Renz on Alex Jones and Tucker Carlson speaking recently. Both are incredibly powerful deliveries which are on audio file below.
Tucker Carlson who was recently fired from Fox News as a news-show host, because his views didn’t fit the narrative, now has a feed on Twitter/X. Renz was a recent guest on the Alex Jones Show. On that same episode, Jones also played the audio version of Carlson’s recent speech. These are two audio files you might want to share with anyone awake, to help them with a sense of perspective, to semi-awake people to help them over the fence, and even to those asleep as a Red Pill.
On a steamy summer morning, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. strode into a hotel conference room in Columbia, South Carolina, amid a barnstorming town hall tour of a state where Joe Biden won close to 49 percent of the vote in the 2020 Democratic primary.
I’ve been wanting to repost this image more than any, since my content was taken down at the Wellington protest against mandates. Even before the convoy, before the protests, before the lockdowns, Keven Millard was bucking the system. And this image of him in his store with no mask on, sticks with me to this day. Of all the interviews I did in Wellington and on the Convoy, this stays with me, because Kevin lives in a very, very small town in Southern New Zealand: Tokanui. And it’s often said, “You stand out more in a small town when you stand up”. But Kevin wasn’t afraid, early in the game to stand his ground. After numerous visits from the police he still refused to wear a mask or require his customers to put them on. He basically said, “Screw ’em if they don’t like my choice.” I remember the very first day I decided to stop wearing the face diaper. It was also very early on in the game. I was shaking in my boots, In fact a wrote a line in a song about it. So here’s Kevin at his Tokanui Food Centre, doing was he does best, being him.
Notice the facemask exemption sign posted behind him. We had some good chats while my family and I stayed in the Catlins
The food at Kevn’s place is basic Southern Fare, but the reading material is excellent, 5 stars.
By Randall Richards, Mountain Spirit Media Penny Marie, a motivated mother and “new journalist”, with a marketing background, is making the rounds on New Zealand’s South Island for a two-week whistle-stop tour, called “Finding Your Brave”. She recently spoke in Cromwell in Central Otago, to an attentive crowd of locals interested in preventing government overreach.
Her main advice, “Show up at a school board or regional council meeting as an ally”. To warm the waters, she starts out with a traditional Maori introduction, called a “Pepeha” as part of one’s “mihimihi” or story or personal history. “It’s a wonderful way to put context of who you are, and your connection to people and place. That immediately allows a more relaxed sense of communication between parties”, said Marie. She then presents issues in a non-confrontational way. “If they don’t listen”, she says “Then go run your own meeting somewhere else”.
Her address to her local school board of trustees, was delivered in an honorable, but firm way. She asked for a response within a month. Finally, she said, “giving them a timeframe to reply is important, and if none is forthcoming, then go back for another request”.
Penny Marie is a passionate and strong “stand and deliver” speaker. There were more than one “note-taker” in the group.
Although Penny’s talk covers the broad subject of standing tall, she’s particularly been fired up by the recent so-called curriculum refresh and more specifically modifications to sex education aimed at our young children, not only in New Zealand but worldwide.
As a recent example, our local Liger Leadership Academy, a private high school in Queenstown recently arranged for the organisa7on ‘Inside Out’ who are sponsored by the government to deliver a presentation to their students as part of the their Healthy Citizens curriculum. After a number of parents raised concern and asked for more information about what would be presented to their children, the school was receptive and arranged for ‘Inside Out’ to meet and present to parents first which provided an opportunity for parents to ask questions directly to the presenter from Inside Out. As a result, numerous parents chose to opt their children out of the presentation which is their legal right and the school arranged for these children to participate in alternative activities.
As a side note, I did a quick overview of Liger, a relatively new private school in the area, and it looks like it’s based on some great experiential educational principles not found in the public system, plus it emphasizes a strong scholarship program for parents who find the $15,000 per annum tuition load a challenge.
Penny stated, “Before these presentations most, if not all board members, teachers and most parents aren’t aware of the sexualtiy edcuation curriculum being imposed in their schools”. adding, Parents are so busy working and maintaining home-life they’re often unaware of what’s being presented”. To make matters worse, either by design or for simplicity, unfortunately, the privacy act in New Zealand appears to be misused.” There is little support for young people who want an even and balanced perspective on these big matters. Penny sees a need to create a network of people to help those in need of support who are currently in the educational system. If people are wanting to help develop a network get in touch with her at rsesupport@proton.me She listed off a number of website links, and suggested people look into the story of Chloe Cole told on the Family First website, and Walt Meyer’s advice to those thinking of transitioning on the sexchangeregret.com website. In short, Penny is asking parents, teachers and boards to not only re-think “gender education” but to take a step back and take hands off our kids in this regards. see resistgendereducation.nz and familyfirst.nz for more on this.
Craig Rizzi, (L), Wanaka Voices for Freedom Coordinator, Deane Craft and others from Central Otago, have a long-table discussion before Penny’s talk in Cromwell
Penny’s other mission while on her tour is to encourage local community members to form local media content groups whether online and/or in print. If this interests you, get in touch Penny at penny@voicemedia.nz She has recently been helping promote New Zealand’s own new platform, Voice Media started by Mykeljon Winckel, who goes by Mj. This stand-alone subscription based platform is free for journalists, both professional and amateurs, to join, but asks readers to sign up for an subscription before gaining access to the site’s contributors and their content. As Mj puts it “Voice Media is publicly funded free speech platform as opposed to the tax paying tyrannical corporate media. It’s the Noah’s arc of free speech”.
As if in perfect synchronicity, Penny has also been asked to coordinate Kerry Murray’s United Free Press’ Austria- New Zealand’s media community. UFP, we hope, will replace the globalists’ mouthpieces like United Press International, AP, and Reuters. (I used to work for UPI back in the day, but no more). Penny will be encouraging local reporters and content providers to become accredited members of United Free Press, by applying to be a member and abiding by UFP’s code of ethics. Penny also recently joined the Free Speech Union of New Zealand which she encourages others to look into.

The idea is to do an end run around, what I used to call, the Mainstream Media. I don’t call them that anymore, because it’s becoming obvious they’re no longer the mainstream. I also don’t like “Legacy Media” which some use, but prefer “Dinosaur Media” instead as it more accurately depicts their current status. I’m about to do another piece on the sea-change happening daily where big new media events are changing the landscape faster than anyone expected. It’s the “wild-west of communications”. My professors, nor anyone else could have predicted, when I took my university courses in communications and public relations in the early ‘80’s that we’d see such cool changes happening in real time. It’s an interesting time to be alive. Keep an eye on Penny Marie. She’s not in this for the glory, rather because she’s passionate about getting the truth out, in an open-hearted way based on compassion. And most likely she’ll pull it off on a global scale with her knack of tapping into the synchronicity of connecting people, Voice Media and United Free Press. I wish her God’s speed on her journey, and look forward to seeing where this leads. I plan on being there every step of the way.
It was so fulfilling to see our own soft-spoken, but powerful Bev Reynolds connect with Penny Marie at our recent meetup in Cromwell, NZ. Connecting passionate people to share ideas and a common goal is key to waking people up to government overreach.
This is not news, it’s just finally getting through the main stream media smokescreen of censorship. Interestingly, a search for this video on Youtube shows only a banner: “COVID-19: Get the latest info from the New Zealand Govt about Covid-19.” “Our single source of truth“. As we say here in NZ, ” Yeah, Nah”
DrDavidMartin is the founder and owner of the company M-CAM International which has provided research and corporate advisory services to over 160 countries and he has personally served as an advisor to the World Bank and many governments.
From Dr. David Martin spoke before the European Parliament in Brussels at the International Covid Summit recently, stating the COVID-19 coronavirus was “accidentally or intentionally released.” He testified that The intention was to create widespread acceptance of vaccines through initiation of a world-wide pandemic.
This, from Value Entertainment.com: Dr. Martin presented the following provocative, evidence-based points through an in-depth timeline: 1965: The coronavirus, a modifiable agent which causes disease, was discovered by scientists. “Later we started learning how to modify a coronavirus by putting them in animals such as dogs and pigs,” Dr. Martin stated. 1990: Pfizer’s first coronavirus spike protein vaccine is founded based on the animal modification practice. Soon after, drug makers discovered that coronavirus vaccines did not work. “Because….read more here>

Dr. Canaday has been a staunch supporter of common sense, freedom of choice and free speech since the carnival of control started with the pandemic lockdowns and mandates here in New Zealand. Early on, he visited us here in Wanaka, and gave a very informative and well-researched talk at the local community centre which was well attended by over fifty people. The next day we drove to Queenstown to hear a panel of New Zealand experts present a roundtable discussion presenting their perspective of the situation. After the panel discussion ended, I asked Peter what he thought about the quality of the cases presented. He wasn’t impressed.
The statement below was just released by Dr. Canaday regarding the medical tribunal coming up here in New Zealand. More details will follow after the tribunal has concluded. However anyone able and willing to attend in support either in the gallery or outside are encouraged to do so in New Plymouth.
Dr. Canaday’s statement:
“The show begins at 0900 on Monday 17 April at the Devon Hotel in New Plymouth (390 Devon St East, Strandon, NP) and is scheduled to run through Friday 21 April.
The Tribunal was given an opportunity to live-stream this event due to an expected significant public interest in this proceeding. I had offered to provide the equipment and we had some volunteers at the camera, but they refused.
Dr. Peter Canaday
Their answer was to increase the publicly available seats from 15 to 30 and switch to a different hearing room. (Of these, I may retain about 5 for family, support people, close friends).
To date, the hotel management has not provided any a priori method of dealing with any overflow of attendees, if there is one. I’m not sure what could be done for people that may come from outside NP if there are limited seats, but I can try to do what I can to help if that occurs.
My lawyers have advised that I keep mum about any proceedings during the week, until the Tribunal is completed and we have their determination. After that, the gag will be off, and I’ll be ready to talk about it at length.
I have good relations with Adam Holloway and Matthew McClellan, and I think they are doing a good job within the limitations of a legal system that makes up “misconduct” and “misinformation” out of whole cloth.
The PCC has made enough mistakes that we intend to take advantage of them. For the moment, I have to live in this surreal world, as we all have since 2020. I feel confident that we have a chance to make it a bit less absurd.”
By Randall Richards Voice Media, The Media of the Future Mykeljon Winckel, who goes by Mj, has a a strong sense of “Dutch direction” running in his veins. He’s a first generation Kiwi, his parents immigrated from Holland before WWII. It’s very likely his latest initiative, Voice Media, will prove to be as successful as his other projects and careers, where he hit #1 on US Billboard jazz album in the music business, (hear here!) and a successful magazine publishing career. Learn more about Mj in this impromptu interview we did yesterday.

Ed Note: During the interview I mentioned how important it is to present professionally, by looking, acting professionally and being prepared. And then, we do this impromptu piece, looking a bit ragged. Well, I should speak for myself!
Gill and Peter Bacchus are masters of their craft, Biodynamics, and I was lucky enough to spend a bit of time chatting with them after their recent workshop, held in Cromwell, New Zealand. These two are well-educated and switched on to life. They’re also in tune with the how important our relationship is with the planets, stars, earth, and the food we put into our bodies. Gill is the author of “Love Your Veges” [ed: “Veggies” for you Yanks] and Peter has authored “Biodynamic Pasture Management”. with the subtitle Balancing Fertility, Life and Energy.
YOUR FOOD SUPPLY #32: The Dynamic Duo Note: (This video series started 13 years ago, while listening to the audio version of the book, The Omnivore’s Dilemma, when Amanda and I were driving across the U.S. and were seeing the effects of industrial farming in real time while listening to the book.Here’s that first entry Your Food Supply #1To see the whole series, click on the category “Your Food Supply” in the category section of this blog on the right of your screen.
What struck me was, not only how informed Gill and Peter were when giving their workshop and interview, but how passionate they are about “the parts related to the whole” (physically, spiritually, with the plant kingdom, and universe) , and how we are all interconnected. I also appreciated Peter’s awareness of the bigger picture when it comes to globalist and government overreach. He’s clued in.
Gill has a long practical experience of organic vegetable and herb growing, and learning to choose a vegetable-based diet to manage health issues. She has helped children create school gardens, grow and cook vegetables and helped create community gardens. Gill has a masters in science in Soil Science and Human Nutrition and is also the author of Food Full of Life. Peter was raised on a biodynamic dairy farm and later worked as a medicinal herb grower, developing large-scale composting business. He consults widely and has held leadership position in biodynamic farming organizations. The two live near Thames on the north island of New Zealand. They can be reached at p.bacchus@farmside.com.nz and gillbacchus@gmail.com Although they do have a web domain, their website isn’t up and running at the moment, however here’s Gill’s Facebook page.
This year’s workshop was held at Valda Muller’s Organic New Zealand Nuts walnut farm where Valda guided the workshop participants on a walk-around of her property, which is virtually all biodynamic. The workshop was created and managed by Su Hoskins, who is also has an amazing grasp of organic and biodynamic farming, who we’ll interview soon. Sue recently hosted the two-day workshop where the first day was near Wanaka, and the second at Valda’s in Cromwell. You can learn more about Sue on her Facebook page.
If you get a chance, read their books, and if you’re in New Zealand, by all means, attend one of their, and Sue’s workshops.
Where to begin with this story. I guess from the beginning, which is always the best place. I don’t use Farcebook much anymore – mostly to post images and video clips of our retreat center here in New Zealand. While doing so, a well-marketed add popped up about learning how to perfect your home-studio recording skills called “From Concept to Creation, with the catchy title, “All Music Matters.” The dude teaching the course has great cred, (see his bio here) so I took the plunge and signed on and paid my tuition. It’s been the best money I’ve ever spent but I’ll also be putting a bit more in the donation box located on his site.)
A few things caught my eye. First was a t-shirt Neal was wearing while teaching the course – hmm. The shirt had an American bald eagle and the second one, which he was wearing on today’s lesson stated “I AM FREE”. I stored that info away, but didn’t give it much thought, as I’m a busy guy..
A guy with a cool T-Shirt, sending a message.
The whammy was when, on the second lesson, he invites his students to download his latest album for free, which is included in the course, entitled “Unhinged“. “Hmm” I thought, then when opened the file, I saw the songlist: (listen in the links below)
“Duh”… then I knew we were on the same page, and I promptly shot off an email to Neal: “Hi Neal, Greetings from New Zealand. Buying your course was the best money I’ve ever spent. I love your teaching style, and am resonating with your warm-hearted demeanor. Thanks for that, I’m especially glad I signed up and am supporting another person not afraid to write songs that matter! I was suspect when I saw your T-shirt with the American Eagle, then opening up the Unhinged zip file, and seeing the titles confirmed I was dealing with a cool dude…”
Then today I actually saw this image pop-up at the end of today’s section on Neal’s online course. That’s when I knew I had to get writing this blog piece.
I mean, look at that cover art (below)! Neal has a “take no prisoners’ approach to stating the obvious. At the risk of losing a student or two, he forges ahead with an edgy album which makes my efforts, in the alt media seem whimpy! God bless him! I’ve known about the backstory for over 5 decades, since I was about 13 yrs old, and now feel I could have been much more edgy and forthright, rather than treating globalist research as a hobby.

Fox: “People ask me if my UNHINGED album is about politics. It’s not. It’s about Human Rights, Freedom, Liberty.
In Neal’s email reply, in closing, he wrote,, “I’ve been heavily shadow-banned for years so the only way I get views or subscriptions is through word of mouth. So if you haven’t already, please subscribe: www.Youtube.com/nealfox “
So I’m hoping, dear reader, you’ll subscribe and pass on the good word, because, as Neal signed off in his email, “Don’t hesitate to keep in touch. We need to stick together.”
Neal’s the real deal. I’ve written in previous posts that some past and current names in the “conspiracy fact” movement have been very non-apologetic for their uncompromising stance for the truth. William Cooper author of “Behold a Pale Horse“, Ed Brown of Sullivan County New Hampshire, and today’s Alex Jones, New Zealand’s Kelvyn Alp of Counterspin are gruff. In hindsight, these guys were/are not gruff enough.
While I don’t group Neal Fox in the “abrasive category”, his prolific work and actions, standing for what’s obviously the truth in these crazy times, stands on it’s own merit as self evident. His lovely New “Yourk” accent, while not on a Gerald Celente scale, still makes you want to sit up and pay attention, especially in his online class when he says, “Now the next section is short, but important, so listen up”. Joking aside, he’s got a heart of gold, which comes through in his teachings, and I encourage the reader to download/stream his albums, subscribe to his Youtube channel and delve into his in-depth website, a treasure trove of truth. If I were a globalist, I’d be afraid of likes of Neal Fox. Plus, he’s a great teacher on how to sharpen and learn one’s home studio recording techniques. Stay tuned, as I’d love to interview Neal at some point. Since I don’t forsee him coming to New Zealand in the near future, readers will have to accept a Zoom interview. I look forward to the possibility of sitting down with Neal. I’ll keep you posted.
