- So imagine a convoy of converted school buses and tiny houses rolling into cities all over the country. This tour/podcast/reality show will be a fusion of Road Warrior, American Idol, Rock the Vote, and Tiny House Nation. We are on the hunt for the next President of the United States!!! Maybe you don’t want to be President, But would like to run on a local level.
- We are going to DEBATE all the BIG topics, Abortion, gun control, voting, and free speech!!! Please come Share Your Song!!
- Our endgame is seeing a third-party candidate get a seat at the presidential debates. The stage is set which is an old NASCAR school bus with a stage on top. My bus is the first to join which is a Schoolie with 2 VW vans on top. This is a call to action asking other road warriors to join the Free The Speech Roadshow.
- We want to see conservatives & liberals come together and share their political songs. Imagine Free Speech debates in cities and college campuses covering all different issues: peaceful assembly, mass incarceration, homelessness, limiting Congress to two terms, ending the drug war, voting and so much more!!! Additionally, we want to cover issues that have been banned from discussion on social media.
- Who would you like to see debate, judge and MC on this show? What issues should we debate about? Contact us and let us know

Help the Houseless
- So one of our main goals for the Free Speech Tour is to put a dent in the homeless crisis.
- What if we launched tiny house villages/hostels all over the nation instead of dumping a ton of money into a political campaign! Imagine how many lives we could change.
- Do you need a house or want to help fund/build a house?
- We’re looking for land/properties around the country.
Peaceful Assembly.
For years people at Rainbow Gatherings have been fighting the Feds over their right to peacefully assembly and have been refusing to sign permits. This normally results in a bunch of people getting tickets for illegal gathering.
We will caravan to Denver after or during the 50th Anniversary of the Rainbow Gathering (Depending on if or when they start writing illegal gathering tickets). Either way, will be headed to Denver!!! Whether you are attending the 50th Year Rainbow Gathering or not, you are more than welcome to come and join us in Denver July 9-17.
Rainbow Gathering
Wondering what a Rainbow Gathering is? This year’s Rainbow Gathering is celebrating the 50th anniversary of gathering together in National Forests (public land) with the aim of promoting peace around the globe. This is a diverse group from all different religions and counter-culture groups: hippies, deadheads, punks, train kids, vets, curious locals, community leaders, and even a few naked people. They have no official leader and they do everything on consensus. Basically, all you need is a belly button and camping gear to go. There have been Rainbow gatherings with over 25K people. No money is allowed but you can barter at the trade circle. All kitchens serve free food and we focalize the Nomads Land/Jesus Loves You kitchen.
Denver
Were going to have so much fun parading around and spreading love, hope, and peace. We will be hugging everyone even the police (with their permission of course!) You can dance, walk, run, roller skate, skateboard, bicycle, motorcycle or drive your schoolies, tiny house or drive a float gently down the street. Don’t forget to bring your drum, instruments and dancing shoes. There will be planned and spontaneous events happening daily. Stay tuned for dates and times.
- Everyone’s invited to wear prison uniforms, crazy costumes, or just come as you are. Were looking to draw some attention to some serious issues. Our voices are being jailed and we will be exercising our rights of free speech and peaceful assembly.
- We will be organizing street teamsto pick up trash while simultaneously cleaning up the political landscape as well. We want cities to start hiring the homeless and people in jail to pick up trash. What if they get paid a fair wage and have money in there pocket when they get out of jail to make a new start.
- Help us launch a tiny house village in Colorado and we will expand from there. If you are down with the cause put up a tent in your front yard.
- This is a call to: Artists, musicians, DJ’s, sound/video engineers, roadies, dancers, activists, missionaries, pastors, lawyers, judges, police, politicians, conservatives, liberals, media warriors, hippies, hobos, hillbillies, and homeboys!!!! We are looking to gather people from every tribe, tongue, nation, class, and color. No matter who you are or where you have come from you are: Needed, Accepted, Loved.
