Free Cities Podcast

Global Freedom, Freedom Of Movement, Territorial Tax Systems, Plan B Strategy, Latin America, Panama, China And The West, Family Sovereignty, Bitcoin Friendly Jurisdictions, Free Cities, Exit Thinking, Purpose And Meaning, UBI, CBDCs. - Timothy Allen speaks with Mikkel Thorup. Mikkel is a long-time expat, offshore consultant, and founder of Expat Money. He has spent over 25 years living outside his country of birth, traveled to more than 120 countries, and works directly with families, entrepreneurs, and high earners looking to reduce friction with the systems they live under. What begins with travel stories from Central Asia and reflections on cultural psychology quickly expands into a deeper conversation about freedom, perspective, and trade-offs. Mikkel challenges Western assumptions about liberty, compares overt and hidden forms of control, and argues that many people do not actually want freedom once responsibility enters the picture. From China and the Middle East to Panama and Latin America, the discussion maps where real-world freedom is increasing, where it is quietly disappearing, and why jurisdictions with territorial tax systems and diversified revenue models are becoming magnets for mobile families. Along the way, Mikkel explains why Panama functions as a de facto city-state, how offshore structures really work in practice, and why physical communities matter more than online movements alone. The second half of the conversation moves into harder territory: public education, UBI, loss of purpose, and why meaning, struggle, and family remain central even in a world of optionality. Rather than offering slogans or hacks, the episode stays grounded in lived experience, trade-offs, and personal responsibility.

Tax-Free Living, Global Mobility, Second Passport, Residency Planning, Asset Protection, Staatenlos, Perpetual Travel, Plan B Strategy, Exit Taxes, Free Cities, Digital Nomads, Homeschooling Abroad, Offshore Banking, Citizenship By Investment, Geographic Arbitrage. - Timothy Allen speaks with Christoph Heuermann. Christoph is a perpetual traveler whose company Staatenlos sits at the intersection of global mobility, asset protection, and quiet preparation for uncertainty. What begins with stories of constant movement and remote places quickly turns into a deeper exploration of why some people choose not to anchor themselves to a single country, system, or plan. Without turning it into a how-to guide, the conversation moves through unclaimed territories, unusual experiments in sovereignty, and the lived reality behind concepts like exit, optionality, and Plan B thinking. Heuermann shares observations from years of travel and advising clients, offering glimpses into how families, entrepreneurs, and retirees are responding to tightening rules and rising friction worldwide. The discussion also challenges common assumptions about digital nomads, free cities, and what actually creates resilience, hinting at tensions between online freedom and physical reality. Throughout, the focus stays practical and grounded, more about mindset and trade-offs than hype.

In this NEWS episode of the Free Cities Podcast, Timothy Allen summarizes a recent Free Cities Foundation Ambassador call focused on the reported capture of Venezuela’s president Nicolás Maduro and the rapid signals of reopening that followed. - Drawing on firsthand accounts from Tim Stern, founder of CryptoCity, a residential special economic zone being built on Venezuela's Margarita Island, the discussion traced the immediate shock of the news, followed by a sudden surge in activity. Stern described how real estate inventory on Margarita tightened dramatically within days, with entry-level beachfront apartments disappearing and inbound interest spiking. - He also reported hundreds of new CryptoCity sign-ups in a single day and the return of international flights, including direct routes to Caracas for the first time in roughly 15–20 years, with expectations that flights to Margarita itself would soon follow. - José Cordero, a Venezuelan economist and futurist, framed the moment in national terms, emphasizing that roughly a third of Venezuela’s population, an estimated 8–9 million people, now lives abroad. He argued that despite sensitivities around sovereignty and colonialism, most Venezuelans viewed the intervention positively, seeing it as a break from an armed regime they could not remove themselves. The call explored how legitimacy, relief, and uncertainty coexist during abrupt political transitions. - The conversation examined risks to special economic zones established under the previous regime. Stern explained that CryptoCity had been developed deliberately “by the book,” with extensive legal, environmental, and infrastructure studies, reducing exposure even if formal SEZ designations were revisited. Energy security was also discussed, including Venezuela’s dependence on the Guri hydroelectric system, recent outages, and Margarita’s partial local generation, reinforcing CryptoCity’s decision to pursue independent energy production. - Participants also addressed foreign capital dynamics, particularly Chinese investment in Venezuelan infrastructure and oil, which was characterized as significant but cautious amid shifting U.S. influence. Dollarization was raised as a potential stabilizing outcome following years of hyperinflation. - The call concluded with an update on Honduras from Alex Ugorji, where a delayed and contested election appeared to be resolving in favor of a transition away from socialist governance. While uncertainty remained, the consensus was that negotiated settlements around special economic zones such as Prospera and Ciudad Morazán were increasingly plausible. - Overall, the episode captures a moment of cautious optimism marked by reopening signals, unresolved legitimacy questions, fragile infrastructure, and renewed global attention on special economic zones as tools for navigating political transitions. - DONATE Bitcoin to the Free Cities Podcast: bc1q5jun0nzxzqepch84rqk0jnv0rd8uvns28df7mg - DONATE fiat currency to the Free Cities Podcast: https://buy.stripe.com/5kQ9AT90zeeY5JX7Jv4ow00 - All the Podcast Links: https://linktr.ee/FreeCitiesPodcast Free Cities Telegram Community: https://t.me/+im6c6r4jQkUzMjU0 Free Cities Conference: https://freecitiesconference.com/ Free Cities Foundation Newsletter: https://free-cities.org/subscribe - Podcasting apps that support Value 4 Value Bitcoin payments: https://podcastindex.org/apps?appTypes=app

Bitcoin, Citadel Theory, Geoarbitrage, Capital Mobility, Privacy, Austrian Economics, citadel.garden, Family, Plan B, Private Communities, Optionality, Sovereignty, Free Cities - Timothy Allen speaks with Rahim Taghizadegan. Rahim is an Austrian economist and philosopher, founder of the Scholarium in Vienna, working in the Austrian School tradition on capital theory, entrepreneurship, and why political solutions consistently disappoint. In this episode, he challenges deeply held assumptions about democracy, property, mobility, and what people mistake for security. He argues that freedom is not won through reform or participation, but through exit, optionality, and quiet preparation. The conversation gradually reveals citadel.garden, a deliberately understated network of semi-private, family-oriented refuges, presented less as a utopia and more as insurance for those who see institutional decline coming but prefer not to advertise their response.

Seasteading, Floating Cities, Ocean Living, Private Governance, Catamaran Design, Flag Theory, Libertarian Communities, Sovereign Living, LiberArx, Atlas Island, Ocean Builders, Free Cities. - Timothy Allen speaks with Mason. Mason situates seasteading within the Free Cities movement, contrasting projects like the SeaPod from Ocean Builders and the ArkPad by Mitchell Suchner, before introducing LiberArx as a mass-producible, apartment-first floating home designed for comfort, mobility, energy independence, and cost competitiveness with global real estate, rather than traditional sailing performance. He frames LiberArx as a practical bridge toward projects like Atlas Island, arguing that scalable, livable platforms for families, combined with larger floating commercial structures, are a necessary intermediate step toward viable, sovereign seasteading communities.

Collectivism, Individualism, Objectivism, Statism, Freedom, Ayn Rand, Free Speech, Entrepreneurship, Reason, Transhumanism, Free Cities, Self-Interest, Liberty, Technology, Philosophy - Timothy Allen speaks with Yaron Brook. Yaron is an Israeli American author and commentator best known as the longtime chairman of the Ayn Rand Institute and a prominent advocate of Objectivism. In this conversation we talk about why the core political divide is, in Yaron's view, collectivism versus individualism rather than left versus right, and how growing statism erodes freedom, reason, and human flourishing. Brook argues that modern politics, technology, and even cultural movements increasingly resemble secular religions demanding sacrifice, while genuine liberty, entrepreneurship, and happiness rest on a clear philosophical defense of individual rights, free will, and rational self-interest, which he sees as essential foundations for projects like Free Cities and for resisting the long-term pull of control, conformity, and decline.

Longevity, Gene Therapy, Unlimited Bio, Próspera, Regulation, AI, Biohacking, Philosophy, Morality, Spirituality. - Timothy Allen speaks with biomedical engineer Vladimir Leshko about gene therapy, longevity, and why Próspera’s regulatory environment makes human trials possible that are effectively blocked elsewhere. Leshko explains how gene therapy works, why aging is a biological process rather than an inevitability, and explores the ethical, spiritual, and existential implications of choosing radically extended life in an age of AI and abundance.

Sark, Free Cities, Flag Theory, Capital Flight, Geo Arbitrage, Investment, Independence, Relocation, Political Risk, Wealth Mobility, Government Failure. - Timothy Allen speaks with Swen Lorenz. Swen is a Sark resident who was at the centre of the recent bid to rejuvenate the island by buying up the flailing Sark property portfolio of the Barclay family. This episode is an update on the current situation in Sark and the wider issue of confidence in government. In this conversation, Swen reflects on Sark as a microcosm of the wider structural pressures facing small jurisdictions and, increasingly, Europe itself. He offers a sober assessment of an island grappling with stagnation, demographic imbalance, and missed opportunities for renewal, including a high-profile investment effort that ultimately failed to materialise. From Sark, the discussion broadens to questions of capital, mobility, and confidence in the future: why people are beginning to move their money, and themselves, how governments respond when that happens, and what it means to think seriously about where, and how, to build a life and a business in an era of growing constraint.

This NEWS episode of the Free Cities Podcast reviews Honduras’s unresolved presidential election, with Nasri Tito Asfura (National Party) seen as the likely winner over Salvador Nasralla (Liberal Party), and the socialist Libre party effectively sidelined. Jorge Colindres and Alex Ugorji agreed that either leading candidate would be favorable to special zones (ZEDEs), with Asfura having stronger institutional support and Nasralla increasingly pro–private sector. Despite legal uncertainty following a Supreme Court ruling, Jorge argued that acquired rights and international treaties—especially the Honduras–Kuwait treaty—protect the ZEDEs, while Alex noted ongoing practical enforcement risks. Both expect a negotiated settlement with the government in 2026, potentially unlocking major investment, and highlighted growing optimism ahead of the Free Cities conference in Prospera next September. - All the Podcast Links: https://linktr.ee/FreeCitiesPodcast Free Cities Telegram Community: https://t.me/+im6c6r4jQkUzMjU0 Free Cities Conference: https://freecitiesconference.com/ Free Cities Foundation Newsletter: https://free-cities.org/subscribe Conference Guide to Prague: https://tinyurl.com/FreeCitiesPragueGuide - DONATE Bitcoin to the Free Cities Podcast: bc1q5jun0nzxzqepch84rqk0jnv0rd8uvns28df7mg - Podcasting apps that support Value 4 Value Bitcoin payments: https://podcastindex.org/apps?appTypes=app - NOSTR: Timothy Allen: npub1gcf9ltaeu42f4tr20z3avkas04dezlx3jaudqsuu87gvmh686xasrvqjg0 Free Cities Foundation: npub1lsj8pmgedqqamt89c27tzjjnlf0wn7q7udjm7j2cl9xxz97eacns2mwpee - LEGACY SOCIAL MEDIA: Timothy Allen: https://twitter.com/MrTimothyAllen Free Cities Foundation: https://twitter.com/freecitiesfound - OTHER LINKS: Veritas Villages: https://www.veritasvillages.com/freecities Free Cities Foundation: https://free-cities.org/ Become a resident or business owner in Próspera: https://prospera.co/r/freecities

Free State Project, Libertarianism, Seasteading, City-States, Proprietarianism, Democracy, Privatized Governance, Immigration, Sovereignty, Liberty Movement, Economic Freedom, Silicon Valley Oligarchs. - Timothy Allen speaks with Mark Edge. Mark is an award-winning radio show host, most famously, one half of 'Free Talk Live' the libertarian radio show he hosted out of New Hampshire with Ian Freeman. In this episode we discuss libertarian projects like New Hampshire’s Free State Project, Liberland, and seasteading as ways to build freer societies, with Mark noting the benefits and limits of concentrating like-minded individuals. We explore privatized city-states, billionaire influence, and the flaws of democracy, advocating proprietarianism where owners prioritize citizens’ well-being. Examples like Bill Gates’ farmland illustrate state and elite impact, while libertarian strategy emphasizes autonomy, freedom, and creating spaces where adults can act freely without harming others.

Welcome to this BONUS episode of the Free Cities Podcast. These episodes are exclusively available to our subscribers on Fountain.fm, and I will be releasing them periodically throughout the year. - If you're not on Fountain, you can access the episode here: https://fountain.fm/episode/727p2ykSx85aTmeNbC8N - EPISODE SUMMARY: In this episode Timothy Allen is interviewed by Patrick Hiebert, CEO of Veritas Villages. They discuss their parallel journeys from media and entrepreneurship into Bitcoin, free cities, and building freedom-oriented communities. Timothy explains why many Brits are considering relocation: rising taxes, government overreach, hidden financial burdens, declining freedoms, and a growing push toward digital control systems. He expresses concern about the UK's political trajectory, inflation, and public complacency, prompting him to seek better opportunities abroad for his family. The discussion brings up the increasing appeal of geographic arbitrage and communities that reject restrictive or "woke" policies, contrasting the optimism seen in El Salvador with the UK’s stagnation and the shared belief that pursuing freedom remains essential.

Liberland, Diplomacy, Recognition, Croatia Dispute, Global Community, Libertarian Ideals, Free Republic, The Ark Project, Self-Sovereignty. - Timothy Allen speaks with Thomas D. Walls . Thomas is the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Free Republic of Liberland. In this episode, Thomas discusses Liberland’s evolving diplomacy and the nation’s efforts to foster peace and cooperation with its neighbours. The conversation explores ongoing dialogues with Croatia and Serbia, the delicate balance of seeking international recognition, and the challenges posed by territorial disputes and differing political realities. Thomas shares insights into “diplomacy by example,” explaining how Liberland aims to demonstrate its legitimacy through tangible regional benefits, including investment, innovation, and community development. He also discusses Croatia’s paradoxical stance, legal hurdles, and the gradual softening of attitudes from local authorities. Beyond borders, Thomas highlights Liberland’s ambition to build a global libertarian community, attract supporters worldwide, and create real-world alternatives such as The Ark, a pioneering community project on the Serbian side of the Danube. The episode also touches on broader themes of economic resilience, self-governance, and the role of free societies in an era of global uncertainty.

Welcome to bonus episode number 4 of the Free Cities Podcast. These bonus episodes are available exclusively to our subscribers on Fountain.fm, and I’ll be dropping them periodically throughout the year, especially during the weeks when subscribers already have early access to the current main episode. . If you're not on Fountain, you can access the episode here: https://fountain.fm/episode/CznBcyiApWPOqLrYaiZS . Today’s bonus episode is a Plan B Hangout, in which Giacomo Zucco interviews me. According to their website, Plan B Network “Aims to provide the best tools and educational content worldwide, empowering people to regain their sovereignty, from individuals to communities. We are here to help you along your Bitcoin journey.” It’s an educational platform, and Giacomo himself is a bit of a Bitcoin OG, most people in the space know him. I’m currently in the process of writing an educational syllabus for Plan B Network about Free Cities - If you’re listening to this sometime in the future, check out their website at planb.network for the course. Here’s a quick summary of today’s episode so you can decide whether or not to dive in: "In this episode of the Plan B Hangout, Timothy Allen from the Free Cities Foundation discusses the concept of Free Cities, their evolution, and their intersection with Bitcoin and individual freedom. Key topics include the Free Cities Foundation, Prospera in Honduras, competition between governance models, sovereign individuals versus Free Cities, securing a Free City, the relationship between the Free Cities movement and Bitcoin, filtering out scammers and unrealistic projects. And finally, we talk about seasteading." I didn’t know this beforehand, but Giacomo was actually a seasteader back in the day. I might have even rekindled his interest in it. All in all, this should serve as a pretty solid overview of the current Free Cities space and its integration with Bitcoin. Apologies in advance for my croaky voice and occasional shouting; I really need to work on my online interview game… and I will! Enjoy the conversation.
