Carry-On: Sovereign Citizen Kane

In this episode, the guys share their . . . experiences with law enforcement. Thankfully, they avoid implicating themselves in any major felonies. Needless to say, they learned from their youthful indiscretions with the traffic laws. Then the guys get to the truly crazy beliefs of Sovereign Citizens. Things like admiralty law and straw men. What are those things? Made up BS. But it is entertaining.

About the Podcast

Baggage
Everyone has a story.
Baggage is a collection of compelling, unique, and sometimes traumatic stories from people of all walks of life. These stories typically only get heard by the storyteller’s friends, family, or co-workers. Now there is a platform for everyday individuals to share their experiences with a larger audience as well as how they cope with the emotional and mental baggage that sometimes follows those events. Once a month, the show’s hosts—Eric Shaw (doctor), Ryan Frank (prosecutor), Adrian Bonenberger (journalist/author), and Ryan Conner (comedian)—hear a different set of stories bringing their own distinct perspectives. Sometimes serious and sometimes humorous, it’s sure to always be interesting.
