Join Sam Bushman and guest Thomas Haviland on the Liberty Round Table Radio Show (HR 1) for a thought-provoking episode recorded on December 29, 2025. Broadcasting live from the Rocky Mountains, this hour explores the intersection of faith, freedom, and current events.

The show opens with reflections on Christmas and the importance of peace, then pivots to hard-hitting news: U.S. military actions in Nigeria, the persecution of Christians both abroad and at home, and the constitutional questions surrounding executive power. Sam and Thomas discuss the troubling attack on Christians in Seattle, the lack of media coverage, and the need for Americans to address issues at home before intervening overseas.

In the second half, the conversation turns to the ongoing controversy over COVID-19 vaccines. Thomas Haviland shares insights from his nationwide embalmer surveys, revealing widespread reports of unusual blood clots since the vaccine rollout. The discussion highlights the silence and fear within the medical community, the challenges of speaking truth to power, and the urgent need for transparency and accountability.

Throughout the episode, listeners are encouraged to stand up for life, liberty, and the Constitution, and to support independent journalism that brings these critical stories to light.
