From Liberal to Liberty: A Former Leftist’s Awakening

What does it take to break free from the ideological chains of the left? In this episode, we sit down with Bucky Lecker, whose journey from blind acceptance to radical awakening led him to embrace constitutional values, personal liberties, and the undeniable truths of history.
Having lived in areas controlled by communist regimes for periods of his life, he didn’t recognize the dangers of socialism until years later—when his NPR radio station was unexpectedly interrupted by a much more conservative voice. Now, he turns to thinkers like Jordan Peterson, Victor Davis Hanson, Thomas Sowell, and more to dissect today’s political landscape. He points to the many written works that have helped to shape his world... Leviathan, Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance, The Gulag Archipelago, The Road to Serfdom, Science and Human Values, and Intellectuals in Society to name a few.
Join us as we discuss the awakening we are in the midst of, the tipping point we are facing, why liberalism is a fast track to socialism and thus, communism, and why America must reject these failed ideologies before it’s too late.
