Friday Dec 29, 2017
Friday Dec 29, 2017
On today's episode of Felony Friday host John Odermatt is joined by fellow Lion of Liberty, host of our flagship Monday program, Marc Clair. John and Marc kick things off by first looking back to update a case covered way back on Episode 55 of Felony Friday titled "A Rumor Sent a Teenage Girl to Prison for a Brutal Murder in Vegas," which was an interview with the Intercept's Jordan Smith. The first link below details the story, but the podcast is a must listen if you haven't heard it yet.
Next, John and Marc spent some time sorting through the mess of horrible laws that hit the books in the 2018. Laws impacting everything from "ban the box" to parental leave to buying ammo. Lastly, John and Marc wrap things up by playing "Is it a Crime and Should they do Time?"

Yo ho ho and a bottle of Liberty! It's that time of year again, when we partake in some holiday cheer and adult beverages for our annual "Naughty or Nice" special! In the show Marc is joined by Rico, Brian and Odie to cast judgment upon various figures in the political world and whether they were "naughty" or "nice" for liberty in 2017. After dishing out a few easy "Nice" awards, we get into a few more contentious characters such as LP Chairman Nicholas Sarwark, "reformer" Saudi Prince Alwaleed, Gary Johnson, Joe Rogan, Ajit Pai, Rand Paul and of course, the POTUS himself, Donald Trump. Enjoy this tipsy look back at the biggest names in politics and liberty for the last year!
PLUS! Stay tuned after the show to hear about the biggest giveaway for new Pride members we've ever had!

FF 092 - Make Automatic Weapons 100 Percent Legal
Friday Oct 06, 2017
Friday Oct 06, 2017
On today's episode of Felony Friday host John Odermatt is joined by Lions of Liberty legal counsel "Rico." After exchanging some pleasantries discussing the MLB playoffs, John and Rico dive into the serious topic of the recent Las Vegas shooting.
They start out examining why the gun control crowd and Hillary Clinton have already started to use this tragedy to push their agenda. John and Rico point out that left will push perceived "common sense" solutions, that in reality do nothing to make us safer and absolutely infringe on our liberty.
Instead of debating the left's fantasy solutions, John and Rico discuss a very important question that you won't hear anywhere else: Should automatic weapons be fully legalized?
Tune in to hear the answer to this and much more! You can find links to everything discussed on the show below the player for today's podcast.

Felony Friday host John Odermatt is joined by award-winning investigative journalist Jordan Smith. Jordan is based in Austin, Texas and has covered criminal justice for almost 20 years. She is an extremely talented reporter with a reputation for analyzing complex social and legal issues. Her work has appeared in The Nation, The Crime Report, and The Intercept, among many other places.
On today's show John and Jordan discuss an investigative article Jordan wrote for the Intercept titled "Nightmare in Sin City - How a Rumor Sent a Teen to Prison for Murder in Vegas." In the article Jordan shares the tragic story of an eighteen-year-old girl by the name of Kirstin Blaise Lobato who was sent to prison for a crime that there appears to be no possible way she committed. Jordan shares Kirstin's story, from troubled youth growing up in a small Nevada town to being charged with and eventually convicted of committing a brutal murder. Except there's one rather massive problem with the detectives' story implicating Kirstin. The only evidence linking the teenager to the crime is a rumor.
This is a bizarre, complicated case, but Jordan does a phenomenal job of explaining, in painstaking detail, every aspect. In fact, there's a very good chance that Jordan's analysis of the case could be the catalyst that ends up exonerating Kirstin.
This is a can't miss episode of Felony Friday. And Jordan's investigative article at the Intercept is a must read in order to fully understand this complicated and downright bizarre case.
