Hats off to both Kelvyn Alp and Hannah Spierer for sharing New Zealand’s year in review on the worldwide broadcast of the Alex Jones Show. The couple hosted the fourth hour of the show today, highlighting some of the more important events of the past year. This is important because Jones’ show reaches millions, and by sharing the antics here in NZ during the past year, the word gets out, and the NZ government, and Jacinda Adhern in particular, hate that.
I’ve been listening to Mr. Jones for years, on shortwave radio, before he was streaming on the internet. So it’s a full circle having our own Kelvyn and Hannah on the show, surreal in fact. The truth is getting harder to suppress – we’re living in interesting times! I’m fond of saying, often attributed to Mark Twain, “A lie gets half way around the world before truth has time to put its pants on.” But we’re catching up.
You can listen here on this ad-free audio file. And don’t forget to share.

“In 2022-22 the New Zealand government enacted emergency laws, mandates, and a medical passport system that caused thousands of New Zealanders to lose jobs, businesses, homes and health. When those people protested, they were ignored b their own government and media and demonized by their representatives as “a river of filth”. This is their story in their own words.” So reads the opening frame in a new documentary, We Came Here for Freedom, Part 1 released three weeks ago by Henna Gaijin Studio, in association with Chantelle Baker’s Operation People ..
The Convoy to Wellington was a spontaneous mass movement driven by the desire for truth fairness, freedom and to be heard by the NZ Government. This documentary puts you there, and gives you the reasons why we went to Wellington, pure and simple.

A must-see important documentary to see what the mainstream media won’t tell you about the Wellington Protest addressing Government overreach.
Editor’s note: Watching this was an emotional trip back to February earlier this year, when my wife and 11 yr old son joined the convoy here on New Zealand’s South Island. We started with 8 cars from the Upper Clutha and joined the main convoy coming from Invercargill, New Zealand’s southernmost point. We met at Timaru and continued on, capturing footage all along the way. We spontaneously kept driving as the convoy grew. We got on the ferry in Picton, and made our way to the first day of the protest on Parliament Grounds in Wellington. I had been a photographer for United Press International in the states, and when I saw this was going to be an historic peaceful sit-in, I knew I had to report what I saw. For a brief moment I had the absurd thought to call UPI and see if they’d like me to cover this. Then, in the next moment, it dawned on me, they would never want what I was going to report. They had their narrative, and my reporting would disrupt that. So rather than having a raft of camera’s around my neck, I hauled out my mobile phone, gathered up what battery packs I had, and got to work. I covered much of what you seen in this documentary until the typhoon hit. On that day, we decided the best plan for the family was to leave and I’d possibly return alone. The hour we were leaving, the many images, interviews and other footage I had taken was strangely removed from my Telegram feed. At the same time my phone would no longer take a charge. I was interviewing people right up to the hour I left, but my phone finally died right then and there. Interesting timing. When I took the SD Card out of the phone to copy it onto my computer, I discovered all the files and data had been encrypted, (which I never do), and the only way to decrypt it was to fire up the phone, that now had no way to charge up. Fortunately, a local IT repair shop, here in Wanaka was able to track down enough used batteries, that we could not retrieve my material. I plan on re-posting all that was remotely date-wiped off my phone. I’m now convinced, from hearing similar stories, that the government nefariously zeroed in on my MAC address shortly before I left the Parliament Grounds and wiped my interviews and images. I’m in the process of re-posting my material, on more than one platform this time around. Please see my other posts, as they become available and the ones that are already on this and our other platforms.
Back to this film – It’s an important statement of what really happened. If you’re ready to handle the truth, and prepared to question the mainstream media, you will find this an eye-opener. I was playing a song I’d written on the guitar called Voices, today on Christmas Day, and got choked up, and had to start again. The reason was, I had seen this film last night, and it brought back all the memories of 10th February, 2022, of seeing how peaceful everyday people who just wanted the government to address their grievances, and how the media twisted, (and in some cases orchestrated) to the opposite of what really happened in Wellington. We’d see and experience one thing, and the media would report something completely opposite on the evening news. That alone is enough to condemn “the machine”, especially when the thousands who were there, go back and tell their friends and family their eye-witness accounts of what really happened. It’s game over.
This is Senator Gerard Rennick from Australia. He’s addressing the Australian government. One can feel the convinctio and passion in his voice. This is what truth looks like. He knows every word, number, and fact like the back of his hand…
Senator Gerard Rennick
These are the types of people we have fighting alongside us, and we, who are working to get the truth out, are proud to be on the same side of history with people like this.
By Randall Richards, Mountain Spirit Media In a recent piece by Oscar Francis of the Otago Daily Times he reports that, “Police have confirmed sound cannons were deployed against protesters at the Parliament occupation in Wellington earlier this year. A document released under the Official Information Act (OIA) revealed two long-range acoustic devices (LRADs) were deployed on the last day of the protest, March 2″…. (read the rest of the article here) The article has a few “inaccuracies”. The first statement that contradicts what eyewitnesses experienced is in the second sentence of the piece where LRADs were only deployed on the last day of the protest. One facilitator/administrator at the protest stated seeing the devices starting around mid-way through the protest. Two teachers from Geraldine also reported seeing the devices well before the March 2 date stated above. Additionally, nurses and a doctor at the protest’s medical tent reported people presenting with burns and hearing issues. These signs and symptoms were also reported at similar protests in Australia. The second misrepresentation presented in Francis’ article states, Police “clashed with crowds of protesters who lit fires and threw cobblestones.” Two independent eyewitnesses who I interviewed, who were immediately next to the tents said that the people lighting the tent/s on fire and adding fuel to the fire/s “were definitely new to the protest grounds, and wore black masks, similar to what Antifa protestors wear.”
Dan Murphy of Queenstown, NZ, supplied these stills from his video of the devices being used on protestors in Wellington during the protest against mandates.

This last image, from Tactical Solutions’ webpage shows their LRAD product, which presumably supplies the New Zealand Police Force. The page’s opening statement reads “used by police forces for non-lethal and non-kinetic crowd control, as a defensive deterrent and for protestor management.”

I’ve also interviewed a number of people in my local community who were adversely affected by these devices. After having returned home after the protest, there were reports of tinnitus, headaches, exhaustion and disorientation. This author certainly has tinnitus as well, which could be attributable to these acoustic devices.
Book By Ron Asher, Published by Tross Publications
By Randall Richards, Mountain Spirit Media Publisher and owner of Tross Publishing, John McLean, as well as The Health Forum NZ founder, Lynda Wharton, both spoke to a sellout crowd of close to two-hundred people here in Wanaka, New Zealand last Wednesday the 11th of May, 2022. Audience members came from throughout the south island to hear Mr. McLean deliver a spirited talk based on the book, Jab in the Dark, by Ron Asher, which focuses on New Zealand’s misdirected policies on Covid-19 and the Government’s official line that the Pfizer vaccine is safe and effective. This author interviewed Mr. McLean prior to the event and you’ll be able to hear the interview once posted here on this blog.
Lynda Wharton of The Health Forum, NZ, and posters of just a fraction of the vaccine injured New Zealanders
Later in the evening Lynda presented an emotional installation of large posters hanging on stage’s backdrop, each one with someone’s picture and details about their vaccine injuries, ranging from numbness, miocarditis to death. The event was organised in the main, by Kaz von Heraud-Parker, (Wanaka NZ) with special staging help from her husband Greg and Joel Van Riel of Hawea, NZ. A number of other local volunteers helped at the event. They were brought together within the community over the past 18 months thorugh the mandates imposed by the New Zealand government, that forced many to lose their jobs, including local Dr. Mark Edmond who was a praticing partner of Aspiring Medical Centre. Another doctor of neuro science who also lost her position, attended the event. Thousands throughout New Zealand lost access to their work, had to permently close their businesses, lost access to government buildings, restuarants and even hair-cutting establishments because of their choice to not get the “vaccine” when the govenment installed a “traffic light” system. Says Kaz of the evening, “I’m really pleased we had a successful event that created a space for free speech. Thanks to our speakers for magically appearing, and to those that traveled from all over the South Island to take part.” Baked goods were on sale as a fundraiser, and a table of Tross Publications’ books were available for sale after the event.

This event was significant in a few aspects. Firstly, it was held in a publicly owned space in which most of the attendees were not permitted a few months ago because of their choice not to take the “vaccine”. Secondly, there was not one mask to be seen in the close to 200 audience members. Thirdly, it was probably one of the larger indoor gatherings since the Wellington protests of like-minded, (or shall we say, open-minded) people in New Zealand, a coming together again of, the tribe.
Before lock-down, here on the South Island of New Zealand, we were quite busy renting out our accommodation to AirBnB guests from all over the world. We enjoyed meeting people from Italy to the US, from China to India. Since lock-down, we’ve been getting bookings from individuals and families here in New Zealand, who want a “digital detox”, or to reset their perspective on life. There’s a huge demand for going within, and reconnecting with one’s self, with others and with nature. Humbly, I think we do that well here at Mountain Spirit. We’ve been at it for a while and are excited to share our space and experience. Amanda offers wonderful and centering YinYoga classes. Randall offers re-connection through “solo’s”, sailing and other experiential activities. Randall worked with Outward Bound for many years, then a mountain guide in South America for Alpine Ascents International, leading climbers up peaks in Peru, Argentina and Ecuador and has landed in New Zealand. Amanda has studied yoga most of her life, and spent some months in India practicing and learning. She most recently has been training under Sarah Powers.

During lockdown Level 4, we eyed the farmer’s hay bales, the next field over, and received permission to take ice axes and crampons to them “as long as we didn’t tip any over on us”. It was remarkably realistic climbing except the occasional piece of straw in your boot and of course the warmth! Who knows, maybe it will catch on. It’s a great way to get a pump, and practice your skills. When growing up in New Hampshire, I took for granted the ice climbs that were 10-15 minutes’ walk from the car, Frankenstein Cliff’s in the White Mountains, come to mind, or smaller local climbs hidden in the woods near Sunapee. In New Zealand, you’ll need a full day’s approach by ski touring into Wye Creek, or Black Peak here in Wanaka to see any ice. No driving to the ice fall or belaying off the bumper here!
