We break down everything from policies to pop culture, help you think for yourself, and kickstart a new kind of conversation for a freer America. https://linktr.ee/counterwave
Fun Fact: Most of our 'ancient' holiday traditions were actually standardized by department store ads in the 1930s. 🎁 This week, try to buy less and think more. American freedom isn't found in a checkout line; it's found in the conversations we have.

Heading home for the holidays? Remember: 'Pass the gravy' is a complete sentence. You aren’t required to deprogram your entire extended family before the pie is served. Protect your peace, defend your facts, and keep the counter-culture alive.

Is it even December if a cable news pundit isn't yelling about the font choice on a coffee cup? ☕️ This year, let’s swap the manufactured outrage for some actual facts. The only 'War on Christmas' we see is the one on our collective bank accounts. Stay skeptical, stay jolly.

The Counterwave studio is currently a mess of tinsel and research papers. Neils is arguing about the logistics of reindeer flight, BobbySox is debunking 'A Christmas Carol,' and Bill is just here for the cookies. 🍪 Whatever you’re celebrating, stay curious and stay free. New episode tomorrow!

Quick check: Is fighting over the last parking spot at the mall an exercise in rugged individualism or just another sign of societal breakdown? Asking for a 'freer America' friend. 😉 Be kind out there, people. We're all in this sleigh ride together.

Still processing the tragic news of the loss of Rob Reiner. I'm of the age when he was a huge part of my film-viewing in the 80s, and about ten years ago wrote a piece for the BFI celebrating to my mind some of his finest work. www.bfi.org.uk/lists/rob-re...

Wow! This is so messed up!
ICE continues to assault, harass, & harm Americans. In Minneapolis, incompetent tax payer funded ICE hit a pedestrian & pepper sprayed civilians from their vehicles.
This happened after ICE decided to go up & down a street demanding to see people's IDs, caused chaos & injuries, & then left.

If you voted for Trump in 2024 and finally realize that he lied to get your vote and things aren't going well, it's okay to change your mind.
Write your representative in Congress and tell them how you want them to vote. Tell them how things are going. Tell them to hold Trump accountable.

We could not agree more. This was a shameful display of pettiness from someone who is obviously in deep mental decline.

That 'perfect' holiday aesthetic you see on every screen isn't real. It's an algorithm fueled by consumerism and the ghost of Christmas Past's marketing team. 👻
The greatest peace of mind is realizing your messy, real-life holiday is better than anyone's highly-filtered feed. 😉

Counterwave tip: Peace of mind is a radical act. Put down the Amazon cart, step away from the in-law drama, and remember what actually sparks joy: people, connection, and maybe a truly excellent slice of pie. 🥧
You deserve a break from the performance of the holidays.
