This week on Space Tomatoes, Havok and LX sit down with Derek Wills (AncapAir), author of *The Liberty Solution*. Derek walks us through his journey from hardcore Republican → constitutional conservative → libertarian → full ancap, and how reading Murray Rothbard completely rewrote the book he was working on. We dive deep into why the state is inherently incompatible with liberty, the myth of "necessary evil," reputation as the ultimate enforcement mechanism in a stateless society, and why IP is not only invalid but actively stifles innovation. We also tackle the classic objections: roads, fire departments, police, dispute resolution, immigration, welfare, and what a voluntary society actually looks like in practice. Derek makes a strong case that ostracism and reputation are far more powerful (and ethical) than state violence.
**Topics covered:**
- The brutal reality of writing a book (and rewriting 90% of it)
- Why "small government" is a myth
- Reputation, ostracism, and private arbitration as real enforcement
- IP, chocolate chip cookies, and why you can't own an idea
- Roads, hospitals, and the free-market solutions nobody talks about.
- Why the Libertarian Party keeps embarrassing itself
- The power of voluntary association vs. coercive hierarchy

If you ever thought about raising Guinea foul, let this be torture condom... sound up, because reasons...
I feel like in some weird way that I am lucky to be less educated on Bitcoin, I mean, I understand it and I get sovereignty etc... What I am less educated on is things like who is Michael Saylor, I have no clue honestly, nor do I care or care what he does, says, or what he is up to. I don't know why BIP-110 is a thing, nor do I get the fighting over it. I simply know there is sound money, that I can use, without a middleman or goon trying to extract some of it because they "gave me permission" to use it. I count myself lucky to have no idea about the drama and stuff that goes on, but to know enough about it to exit and build. So whoever you happen to be and what you happen to represent, Michael Saylor I couldn't give a singular fugg about the entire damned thing. Nostr on the other hand is freaking awesome! I absolutely love all the geeks, dweebs, dorks, miscreants and antidisestablishmentarianism types. Yall keep doing you, I am in for it. Much Love!
Whole-istic Pet Wellness with Vet Jeff Feinman: BEAM, Fresh Food, Terrain Theory & Natural Healing On the Space Tomatoes podcast, hosts Havok and LX interview veterinarian and whole-istic educator Jeff Feinman about a holistic approach to pet wellness centered on BEAM (behavior, energy, appetite, and mood) and individualized “scientific wellness” rather than symptom-focused medicine. Feinman shares his background, discusses helping pets by optimizing vitality through fresh food, supplements that support rather than suppress, and aligning with nature, including red light therapy. They talk through real examples involving a feral cat with respiratory and urinary issues, flea concerns, and when to intervene versus reduce stress, as well as experiences with natural remedies like colloidal silver. The conversation covers terrain theory versus germ theory, vaccine overuse, compassionate end-of-life care, and Feinman’s Whole-istic Actions platform and book Path to Pet Wellness.

New farm vehicle, never thought we needed one of these, now I am convinced we always did.


I absolutely despise the aluminum tube based air transport, but also really enjoy the sights at times.


What happens when the psychologist treating everyone else suddenly becomes the patient? Dr. Jeff Bone went from running a thriving practice to having his brain turn into Swiss cheese after black mold (yes, the real Stachybotrys kind) wrecked his office HVAC. One prednisone prescription later, he was dealing with vibrating floors, memory loss, and a body that basically said “I’m out.” LX and Havok sit down with Jeff as he shares the wild ride from CIRS and Common Variable Immune Deficiency (his immune system basically has narcolepsy) to weekly immunoglobulin infusions, red light therapy up the nose, and the life-changing power of expressive writing. They talk medical gaslighting, why doctors sometimes refuse to say “I don’t know,” the magic of adaptogens, and how to stop hugging the porcupine of your old story. If you’ve ever felt dismissed by the system, drowned in supplements, or just wanted to scream “I’m not making this up!”, this episode is your permission slip to become the expert of you.
