Sinopse
In December of 2015, Fritz decided to stop dreaming. His wife Tracey found the perfect Christmas Gift for him, a microphone. Stop dreaming about what might fall into your lap one day, starting paving the way is what she was saying.In 2015, Fritz also gave up. Politics had always been a focal interest, in middle and high school being a volunteer at a local GOP headquarters. But after such political evolutions of 2004, 2008 and 2012, Fritz gave up. The Republican Party he once thought he knew was gone, and the Democratic Party could never truly welcome him with deep conservative views. That's when Fritz learned of more Libertarian values and realized the system is broken. Now he explores the topics as a mouthy millennial, trying to find his way in the world and navigate the ever muddy waters of the world. THIS IS FRITZCAST.

What We Deserve
10/10/2016 Duração: 39minWell folks, we had a jam packed week of more Clinton e-mails, a leaked Donald Trump tape, a Vice Presidential Debate that was essentially "defend your candidate," and a Presidential Debate that had about as much substance as the first one. A laundry list of Republicans have pulled endorsements from Trump and some are even calling for his immediate resignation.Is this...what we deserve? All this and more!

They Debated Alright
03/10/2016 Duração: 48minLast Monday, Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump went toe-to-toe in a record breaking debate. The problem is...there was no substance. Debates have gone from two candidates detailing plans to two buffoons insulting each other. Why did America watch? Was it for answers, clarifications, or reassuring their vote? I say nay.Gary Johnson flubbed again on foreign matters. First it was recognizing the city of Aleppo; next, naming a foreign leader. Are these gaffes the end of the line? Let's discuss.All this and MORE! See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Debate Night, Wanna Fight About It?
26/09/2016 Duração: 39minIt's DEBATE NIGHT! Hillary Clinton versus Donald Trump! I talk about debates, how they are hyped up into super-mega-ultra-greatest-of-all-time events, and what they will butt heads over tonight. Gary Johnson and Jill Stein were not invited, so I cover what they will be doing as well!I also talk about The Saudi 9/11 Bill, the Saudi Arms Bill, and play a clip from Rand Paul, who brilliantly asks "How can you unanimously pass a bill allowing people to sue Saudi Arabia and then pass a bill selling them a bunch of weapons." I still can't find that answer. Let's discuss. I even talk a little bit about the recent Officer Involved Shootings. Finally, I hope you are all feeling welcome in Wentzlyvania. The Eagles seem here to stay. All this and MORE, on FritzCast! See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Open The Debates
19/09/2016 Duração: 39minIN THIS EPISODE: I open with a brand new intro, and talk a little bit about the quotes used in it. Give it a listen, the music is courtesy of hero board (See Below)It is time to talk more about the Commission on Presidential Debates, and the criteria set forth for the candidates. I talk about Gary Johnson's plans going forward, having missed the criteria for the first presidential debate. What is the purpose of debates anyway? Let's talk about it.We will also look over some of the top news including the recent bombings in New York and New Jersey. All this & more!

Never Forget
12/09/2016 Duração: 43minIN THIS EPISODE: September 11th, 15 years later. A brief reflection on where I was 15 years ago and why the day matters to me. You'll note, there is no commentary on what Football players may have been doing during anthems. It's not what 9/11 is about. Then I dive into the media coverage of Hillary Clinton's illness and how it's affecting the political commentary. The very same thing could be said for Gary Johnson and his "Aleppo" flub.You know what is funny about that Aleppo flub? Well, nothing actually, but Google searches skyrocketed, and Mike Barnicle himself states why he asked "What is Aleppo" and speculates how Trump and Clinton would have fared answering that question.Finally, I talk a little bit about Liquid Alchemy Beverages. I paid visit to this meadery with some friends and learned a thing or two while enjoying some great drinks. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

I Have Been Selected
06/09/2016 Duração: 30minIN this FritzCast Fritz-Forward: I ran into my brother, Punk, and we exchanged words on the Kaepernick situation. Remember, saying someone has the right and endorsing or agreeing with those same actions are two different things. How about the stories you missed while Colin was sitting down? Anything in particular catch your ear? I go over them as well.By the way...I have been selected (For what!? Listen...find out)Finally, I talk a little about my sister, who would have turned 30 on Sept. 5th, a long and much needed weekend, the Franklin Institute...and more!

Freedom Is So Offensive
29/08/2016 Duração: 24minIn this Fritzcast Fritz-Forward episode: Does freedom offend you!? Because it did offend social media. That's right, I may not like Colin Kaepernick or the fact that he did not stand during the National Anthem, but I also did not care. SO why does everyone care so much about a Football Player doing something that for all intents and purposes, he is allowed to do?Then I talk a little bit about the EpiPen issue, and even refer back to that year-end story about a certain CEO and HIV hikes...remember that?Finally, it's going in to do or die time for Gary Johnson and Bill Weld...will it be an aggressive push to hit 15% or will it fizzle out?

A Random Discussion
23/08/2016 Duração: 40minIN THIS EPISODE: A discussion (read: rant) on the DOJ and the decision to scale back on Private Prisons and why I think Prison just isn't a good field to privatize. Then a look at the Electoral College and how changing demographics are changing the battleground states. Donald Trump still points to rigging elections, but I counter that with some research I found on a School paper I wrote at the beginning of August. And is Gary Johnson stealing votes from Trump? Data is showing that Johnson may be pulling more away from Clinton (and either way, he isn't stealing votes. Get over it). All this and a whole lot more!

The Baffling Talk Of Politicians
15/08/2016 Duração: 34minIN THIS EDITION: I open talking about more work-outs, and how I am building up endurance, which is making me feel like a BOSS (or bawse, or whatever your preferred term.) I even talk a little bit about an Xbox One game called Quantum Break.Then I cover memes, specifically...the ones I saw passed around about the US Olympic Women's Gymnastics team and one person who did not have their hand over their heart during the national anthem. Then, straight into Gary Johnson's poll numbers. They appear to be rising in key battleground states and in some cases, Gary is already at 15%. Can he get it nationally?Donald Trump makes a return with a "ridiculous statement of the week," and I dive into why the overreaction was too much, but while there is still a cause for concern. Finally, Bill Weld's gun comments versus Gary Johnson's gun comments...there seems to be a little contradiction, and it is causing a concern.

Hold The Phone
08/08/2016 Duração: 33minIN THIS EPISODE: Being sick sucks, right? I talk about a long week of being sick and recovery. Then I dive into an interesting post on FaceBook about Polling and Gary Johnson. At first I wasn't sure if there was any validity to the story, then found the link to the poll as was astonished to find that it was 100%. Is the way polling conducting hurting any outsiders?

It's All Hooplah
01/08/2016 Duração: 52minWelcome back to FritzCast! I took a week of vacation down at the beach, and I talk a little bit about why vacations are important to break up your daily routines. Then, right on in to the RNC. Was Ted Cruz and his speech uncalled for, or was it more baffling that a crowd would boo him over what those words meant? Also statements from Mike Lee, and Melania Trump's "plagiarized" speech and the outcry over what speech writers stole from other speech writers.Then, of course, if you thought the RNC was a circus, well...so was the DNC, more-so in the surrounding events. Bernie Sanders gave his endorsement and tried unifying the party while Hollywood Actors staged protests...what was it all for, and did Bernie sell out? Finally, Team Gov Gary Johnson and Bill Weld are reading for another crack at CNN Town Hall later this week. Can they get to 15% to eek in to the debates, is the media hindering this process, and what a vote for Gary Johnson really means to me (HINT: It's not to take a vote away from Hillary Clinton

Madness, This Is The World
18/07/2016 Duração: 46minWelcome to another week of the FritzCast. I open on a note of positive steps I have taken to better my health and how it is making me feel loads better. Then I cover a host of topics, from more targeted killing of cops and how we need to start calling for an end to violence and madness. This spills into talks of Terror in France yet again, and a brief overview of the amount of attacks on France over the past year. Then the focus switches to instability across the world with a recent failed coup in Turkey. Finally, Bernie Sanders endorsed Hillary Clinton...yes I have fun with that. All this, and more. This. Is.

We All Bleed Red
11/07/2016 Duração: 48minI recall some lyrics from a Scorpions song, "So here we are, it's hour 1 and it's a nightmare. There's nothing left and yet it's good to be alive. There's no use crying, 'cause the Universe is not fair, the wicked and the innocent are fighting to survive." So I open talking about the Dallas incident, about how nobody really likes a bad cop, and how this issue is a lot more complicated than any one person wants to admit. The key thing that is being overlooked is where to unify. Last I checked, we all bleed red. I also, hopefully, put some perspective into this as a law enforcement official. Let's not let the media do the talking on these stories. After I open, I dive into some political updates. Like Jill Stein offering the Green Party lead to Bernie Sanders and why I just do not believe that would happen. I pull out the Bernie voice and have an interview that didn't go the way I wanted it to (Shocking, seeing how I was doing the voice.) Also, I initiate a deal with my brother, known as "Punk," that if Donald

Included At No Charge
05/07/2016 Duração: 22minThis episode is coming at ya' at no charge! GET IT!? AT NO CHARG---yeah it was a lame joke. So let's talk about Hillary Clinton and those E-mails, and more. Also, Independence Day...and I read you what I believe is the most important part of the Declaration of Independence. Finally...am I supposed to be excited about Gary Johnson anymore? Because...I am fully in his corner but it feels real lackluster. All this AND MORE in this FritzCast Fritz-Forward. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Where's My Breakfast
27/06/2016 Duração: 19minIt's another FritzCast Fritz-Forward. As you may know, I'm a Field Training Officer, and a last minute arrangement shortened my upcoming weeks, so this episode and next week may be a bit on the short side. So let's talk about Brexit, Breakfast and Sit-Ins Galore! See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Who Is The Loser?
20/06/2016 Duração: 39minIn this episode: I brush up lightly on some more about Orlando and where the debates have evolved, sadly it is still "this or that." I finally break my silence on Bernie Sanders. What do you call someone who switches from an Independent Platform to more legitimize their cause? I have some choice words...it probably won't make the Sanders die-hards happy. I also look at the words of Senator Joe Manchin, a story I heard on Jason Stapleton and why its a dangerous thing to say that a constitutional right "is killing us right now." Finally, go to the place where you can always find sanity on world issues: Mike Rowe. All this AND more! Remember to like, share and spread the word. SoundCloud, iTunes, and Stitcher.

The Enemy Is Hate
13/06/2016 Duração: 34minIn this Episode: A hectic week of events shifts focus to what I believe is the real enemy: Hate. Hate is the first enemy, and hate breeds hate. I also dive into politicization of tragedy.I then take a quick look at Brock Turner, the man who raped and got a just sentence of...wait, 6 months in prison with Probation? No way. And to those folks hoping "he get's his in prison," well, I'm here to tell you that won't happen. Rape is rape, there's no question about it.Finally, it appears as though the final nails have been driven into the Feel The Bern movement. Is it over...or is the old man going to keep being a thorn in Clinton's side? All this and more. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

The Final Countdown
06/06/2016 Duração: 42minIN THIS EPISODE: An Apology to Mr. Trump and his supporters over fundraising criticism from me.But THEN, I switch focus to those who feel it's ok to spark violence at Trump rallies, against Trump supporters. I'm talking about those people that actually go with the intent to rile people up and intimidate them. When will we grow up already?Also, is Tuesday it? Is it the final countdown for Bernie Sanders and the Bern movement? Gary Johnson and the Libertarian media presence steadily rises throughout the week as well...And finally...Billboards! THEY'RE OFFENSIVE! AH!!!!! See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
