About this listen

The American Minutemen were crucial to the defense and preservation of early America and were often times the sole protectors for the communities they belonged to. The early minutemen were coordinated, disciplined, physically fit, well trained, highly mobile, and could deploy within 60 seconds of being alerted. They embodied true personal responsibility and maintained a culture of preparation and readiness understanding that the freedoms they enjoyed were not guaranteed. Today our freedoms, values, and societies are being continually attacked and degraded. We believe that bringing back the culture of the Minutemen may be necessary to stand against this degradation and to prepare for the possible need to defend our families and the communities we live in. Looking back at those who came long before us as an example, we believe it is necessary to adopt and embody that same culture to better preserve our freedoms. We believe in protecting our inalienable human rights as well as our American constitutional rights and believe they are applicable to every person equally. Furthermore, we believe in the value and importance of the Second Amendment and believe that every able-bodied American should be responsible practitioners of this Amendment bearing modern arms and equipment with the willingness to stand up against evil to preserve the freedoms we hold dear. Working to maintain and defend these values we believe in helping to reinforce individual responsibility through education, knowledge, and advice. Helping to inspire and build up a culture of disciplined readiness and coordinated community capable of responding to natural, foreign, and domestic threats within a minutes notice. In this Podcast, we discuss the reality of what it means to be a modern day minuteman and try to provide educational guidance on a variety of topics that tie into that responsibility.

  • Series: "Global & National Security" (Pt. 1 Awareness)
    Jun 19 2025
    There is so much instability and uncertainty in our world today, and it is important to do our best to stay informed and aware of what is going on. Although most global issues are well beyond our control and some don't have a direct impact on our local communities, it is critical that we acknowledge the big picture and prepare for downhill effects. On top of these global and geopolitical issues there are numerous issues that are more immediate for us here in America. In this episode Stephen and Jacob break down a general overview of what is going on globally and nationally what should be researched in an effort to better prepare for negative local influence. Between foreign wars, global power posturing, and national security concerns, there is a lot that the modern minuteman should be paying attention to for overall preparedness.

  • "The Truth About Easter"
    Apr 23 2025
    HE IS RISEN! Easter is a time of year that many people celebrate and recognize, but what is the true reason behind this? Between the signs of spring, bunny rabbits, and easter eggs it can be difficult to see where the true significance is. It is important to highlight and discuss the true reason to celebrate Easter and that is the death and resurection of Jesus Christ. In this episode, Stephen sits down with Jacob to discuss the facts about the death and resurection of Jesus Christ and how it is the true reason to celebrate Easter. This is a very different episode than what is become expected on this show, but Stephen and Jacob both felt it very necessary to share the truth of the gospel and deeply discuss the varifiable truths of the Bible. We ask that regardless of your background you give this episode a listen and consider the topics and perspectives that are shared in it. *CORRECTIONS* @min-17:45 While explaining the diety of Jesus Christ, Jacob intended to reference the heresy known as "Arianism" but accidently said "Arminianism". To clarify, Arminianism is not a heresy, but is a protestant theological prospective. Arianism (the intended reference) is a heretical perspective that denies the eternal diety of Jesus Christ and claims He was created. Learn More About Jesus & How To Be Saved What Is Christianity?

  • "Understanding Electromagnetic Threats" (w/ David Nussbaum)
    Apr 2 2025

    We often talk about being prepared from more traditional perspectives; self-defense, medical, logistics, or sustainment but theres a whole spectrum of threats that aren't often discussed. Electromagnetic threats can cause a whole slew of issues and can render our world as we know it radically changed within a moment. Being more educated on the effects of such threats is very important and it is something that should start to take more notice.

    In this episode of the Minutemen Initiative Jacob and Stephen have the opportunity to sit down with David Nussbaum who works for Dynamic Defense Solutions as a trainer and instructor. David has become very knowledgable in the area of electromagnetic threats and in this episode he breaks down some of the specifcs and details that are important to know when building a higher level of understanding.
