]]></title><description><![CDATA[<h6><b>[EPISODE DESCRIPTION - Ready to publish]</b></h6><p>Corey Zimmerman is learning campaign politics the hard way and turning it into a playbook for real-world change. If you care about New Mexico, health care, education, or what actually happens when someone leaves the comfort zone and starts meeting voters, this conversation is the one to hear.What starts as a status update quickly becomes a revealing look at how a first-time candidate builds credibility fast - by listening, showing up, and refusing to talk in slogans. Corey shares what he’s learned from mentors like Ramona Goldsby and Miguel Padley, how campaigning has pushed him into festivals, galas, barbershops, union meetings, and campus events, and why the most effective thing a candidate can do is have honest conversations instead of just reciting talking points.We break down the issues he’s hearing about most: malpractice insurance driving doctors out, Medicare and Medicaid access, the coming Presbyterian coverage changes, and the growing reality that New Mexicans may be forced to cross state lines for care. Corey explains why he’s focused on practical solutions like tort reform, higher reimbursement rates, and keeping more health care dollars in-state instead of watching corporate middlemen scoop up the <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="http://profits.You" target="_blank">profits.You</a>’ll also hear how his campaign is reshaping his view of politics itself. Rather than treating people as enemies, Corey argues for a New Mexico first approach built on integrity, teamwork, service, and responsibility. Cody and Collin press him on party stereotypes, polarization, and the problem with turning every disagreement into a tribal fight, and Corey makes the case that the future belongs to people willing to meet in the middle and work the problem.If you’re tired of empty politics and want to hear what a candidate sounds like when he’s actually learning from the people he meets, this episode delivers. It’s especially relevant for New Mexicans, voters in Bernalillo County District 26, and anyone who still believes leadership should mean listening first and serving the common good.</p><h6><b>Guest Credibility</b></h6><ul><li></li></ul><h6><b>Corey Zimmerman</b></h6><p> is a New Mexico candidate and hospice chaplain whose campaign is grounded in community listening, health care advocacy, and service-oriented leadership.</p><ul><li></li></ul><h6><b>Cody</b></h6><p> brings the host perspective and sharpens the conversation around local politics, health care, and community impact.</p><ul><li></li></ul><h6><b>Collin Klein</b></h6><p> adds the philosophical counterbalance, pushing the discussion toward root causes, human motivation, and what it means to think beyond binary <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="http://politics.Vote" target="_blank">politics.Vote</a> early, stay informed, and hear why Corey believes the real work starts long before Election Day.</p><p>Chapters</p><ul><li>00:00 Insights from Political Campaigning</li><li>03:14 Impact of Policy Decisions on Healthcare</li><li>10:27 Importance of Integrity and Responsibility</li><li>29:05 Navigating Political Polarization</li><li>30:29 The Importance of Genuine Communication</li><li>32:17 Humility and Wisdom in Leadership</li><li>49:43 The Impact of Individual Votes</li></ul>]]></description><guid isPermaLink="false">9a4c25b1-1c61-4b8d-9e35-619934b35c4d</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[Cody Bakewell]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 05 Sep 2026 14:30:00 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://api.riverside.com/hosting-analytics/media/7b076bf864f0f9786bb1418723279debfedf98be52abb4f126247152e4c4de59/eyJlcGlzb2RlSWQiOiI5YTRjMjViMS0xYzYxLTRiOGQtOWUzNS02MTk5MzRiMzVjNGQiLCJwb2RjYXN0SWQiOiJlYmQ4MGUwNi0wODc2LTQ5N2ItOTI2MS04NTU5YzJkYWNlMDMiLCJhY2NvdW50SWQiOiI2N2ZjMzVmMTRjOWIyNWEwOTIwM2EwZGMiLCJwYXRoIjoibWVkaWEvY2xpcHMvNmE5YjM4MmZhZGNkOWVkNDAwNTZmZDk1L2NvZHktZjJHNnotMjAyNi05LTRfXzIxLTI5LTE5Lm1wMyJ9.mp3" length="101595994" type="audio/mpeg"/><podcast:transcript url="https://hosting-media.riverside.com/media/podcasts/ebd80e06-0876-497b-9261-8559c2dace03/episodes/9a4c25b1-1c61-4b8d-9e35-619934b35c4d/transcripts.txt" type="text/plain"/><itunes:summary>&lt;h6&gt;&lt;b&gt;[EPISODE DESCRIPTION - Ready to publish]&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/h6&gt;&lt;p&gt;Corey Zimmerman is learning campaign politics the hard way and turning it into a playbook for real-world change.

It’s especially relevant for New Mexicans, voters in Bernalillo County District 26, and anyone who still believes leadership should mean listening first and serving the common good.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;h6&gt;&lt;b&gt;Guest Credibility&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/h6&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;h6&gt;&lt;b&gt;Corey Zimmerman&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/h6&gt;&lt;p&gt; is a New Mexico candidate and hospice chaplain whose campaign is grounded in community listening, health care advocacy, and service-oriented leadership.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;h6&gt;&lt;b&gt;Cody&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/h6&gt;&lt;p&gt; brings the host perspective and sharpens the conversation around local politics, health care, and community impact.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;h6&gt;&lt;b&gt;Collin Klein&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/h6&gt;&lt;p&gt; adds the philosophical counterbalance, pushing the discussion toward root causes, human motivation, and what it means to think beyond binary &lt;a rel=&quot;noopener noreferrer nofollow&quot; href=&quot;http://politics.Vote&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;politics.Vote&lt;/a&gt; early, stay informed, and hear why Corey believes the real work starts long before Election Day.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Chapters&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;00:00 Insights from Political Campaigning&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;03:14 Impact of Policy Decisions on Healthcare&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;10:27 Importance of Integrity and Responsibility&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;29:05 Navigating Political Polarization&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;30:29 The Importance of Genuine Communication&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;32:17 Humility and Wisdom in Leadership&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;49:43 The Impact of Individual Votes&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;</itunes:summary><itunes:explicit>no</itunes:explicit><itunes:duration>00:52:55</itunes:duration><itunes:image href="https://hosting-media.riverside.com/media/podcasts/ebd80e06-0876-497b-9261-8559c2dace03/logos/8c048c21-3c84-4609-8cfc-28a1faf609bc.jpeg"/><itunes:season>2</itunes:season><itunes:episode>28</itunes:episode><itunes:title> Why This Candidate Thinks Politics Should Be About Solutions, Not Sides

The discussion also covers the patent system's role in innovation, the British Empire's influence on American history, and the concept of civilizational states.

The conversation evolves into a masterclass on civilization's hidden dynamics—from Rome's shift from sea to land power, the Praetorian Guard's legacy, violence as historical currency, intelligence networks, dynasties, and the eternal battle between centralization and <b>individual sovereignty</b>.</p><p>If you're into holistic wellness, psychedelics, red-pill history, or fighting for personal freedom in a controlled world—this one's for you.

It&apos;s engaging, SEO-optimized (keywords like &quot;brain injury recovery,&quot; &quot;psilocybin healing,&quot; &quot;TBI,&quot; &quot;individual sovereignty,&quot; &quot;Rome history&quot;), includes calls-to-action, and plugs your links/merch/Patreon.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In this mind-bending, 2+ hour deep dive on &lt;b&gt;Turning Down the Rabbit Hole&lt;/b&gt;, former Green Beret, author, and brain health pioneer &lt;b&gt;E.M. Burlingame&lt;/b&gt; opens up about his raw journey recovering from traumatic brain injuries (TBI). He breaks down innovative treatments, neuroplasticity, hormone optimization, ancestral nutrition, the microbiome&apos;s role, sleep&apos;s power, electromagnetic sensitivity, and the physiological roots of anxiety.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Then things get wild: E.M. explores psilocybin&apos;s profound effects on emotional processing, fear, and healing—plus how cultural/genetic backgrounds shape our health. The conversation evolves into a masterclass on civilization&apos;s hidden dynamics—from Rome&apos;s shift from sea to land power, the Praetorian Guard&apos;s legacy, violence as historical currency, intelligence networks, dynasties, and the eternal battle between centralization and &lt;b&gt;individual sovereignty&lt;/b&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;If you&apos;re into holistic wellness, psychedelics, red-pill history, or fighting for personal freedom in a controlled world—this one&apos;s for you.

From the nation’s vast oil reserves crippled by socialist mismanagement and heavy crude extraction woes, to its emergence as a shadowy hub for international intrigue—think CIA-backed regime plays, Russian and Chinese power grabs, and ports pulsing with cartel-fueled underworld ops (nodding to the infamous “Devil’s Legions”). The trio dissects U.S. historical meddling via the Monroe Doctrine, parallels to Ukraine as a proxy battleground, and the chaotic ripple effects: mass migration strains, cultural clashes, mob-like governance, media as a weapon of division, and a “civil war of consciousness” tearing at society’s fabric.

From the nation’s vast oil reserves crippled by socialist mismanagement and heavy crude extraction woes, to its emergence as a shadowy hub for international intrigue—think CIA-backed regime plays, Russian and Chinese power grabs, and ports pulsing with cartel-fueled underworld ops (nodding to the infamous “Devil’s Legions”). The trio dissects U.S. historical meddling via the Monroe Doctrine, parallels to Ukraine as a proxy battleground, and the chaotic ripple effects: mass migration strains, cultural clashes, mob-like governance, media as a weapon of division, and a “civil war of consciousness” tearing at society’s fabric.

Spotlighting California’s bold young Republicans and the &lt;i&gt;Salt and Light&lt;/i&gt; movement, they paint a vibrant picture of conservatism’s future. The episode builds to a gripping close with some speculative theories on how the Charlie Kirk assassination unfolded—touching on the rooftop shooter and the suspect’s chilling note—without diving too deep, leaving you pondering the shadows of political violence. With a passionate call to action, this isn’t just a podcast—it’s a battle cry urging you to arm yourself with knowledge, cling to truth, and step up to transform your community before it’s too late!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Chapters&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;00:00 Introduction and Background of Jason Anderson&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;02:21 Reflections on Recent Events and Global Tensions&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;10:08 The Nature of Local Politics and Civic Engagement&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;16:52 The Evolving Landscape of Warfare and Technology&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;19:26 Education System Challenges and Language Barriers&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;24:40 The Importance of Trustworthy Information Sources&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;29:56 Personal Accounts from January 6th and Media Narratives&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;35:29 The Role of Individuals in Political Movements&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;38:03 Understanding Media Narratives and Public Perception&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;40:51 The Importance of Community Engagement&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;43:57 Salt and Light: A Call to Action&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;47:56 Political Strategies and the Republican Party&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;50:43 The Power of Local Governance&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;54:38 Critical Thinking and Civil Discourse&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;58:34 The Impact of Hate and Love in Society&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;01:02:28 Strategies for Political Engagement&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;01:17:26 Engaging in Local Politics&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;01:20:41 The Nature of Political Discourse&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;01:22:58 The Importance of Reading and Knowledge&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;01:24:15 Churches and Community Responsibility&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;01:28:00 Choosing the Right Books&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;01:32:43 The Role of Truth in Information&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;01:34:49 Trust and Information Sources&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</itunes:summary><itunes:explicit>no</itunes:explicit><itunes:duration>01:39:31</itunes:duration><itunes:image href="https://hosting-media.riverside.com/media/podcasts/ebd80e06-0876-497b-9261-8559c2dace03/logos/8c048c21-3c84-4609-8cfc-28a1faf609bc.jpeg"/><itunes:season>1</itunes:season><itunes:episode>15</itunes:episode><itunes:title>Prayer, Politics, and Peril: Jason Anderson Joins Cody, Corey, and Collin Down the Rabbit Hole</itunes:title><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType></item><item><title><![CDATA[Escaping Systems, Chasing Truths: A Rabbit Hole Rundown]]></title><description><![CDATA[<p>Dive into the chaos with this week’s <i>Turning Down the Rabbit Hole</i>!
