Patriot Power Podcast: The American Revolution, Independence, and Our Founding Fathers

In Episode 61, the last of 2025, I sit down with Tanner Haas, founder and CEO of FreedomChat, a secure messaging app built around privacy, personal liberty, and the spirit of 1776. We talk about why private communication still matters, how our Founding Fathers would look at the digital world today, and what it means to protect your family, your ideas, and your freedom in an always online world.We cover how FreedomChat works, why big tech and data collection have changed the way we think about speech, and how regular people can take simple steps to regain control of their digital lives. If you care about faith, freedom, and the future your kids will inherit, this conversation is for you.In this 45 minute interview, we discuss:• Why Tanner created FreedomChat• The quote behind the app: "It's not that I have anything to hide, I have something to protect."• Parallels between secure messaging and secret committees and letters in the American Revolution• Modern threats to privacy and free speech• How FreedomChat keeps conversations secure• What digital freedom could look like for the next generationLinks:FreedomChat: www.FreedomChat.comSearch for "PatriotPower" and follow our FreedomChat channel.Podcast:PatriotPowerPodcast.comListen, share, and join the conversation about modern liberty and digital privacy.

Episode 46 • Thomas Paine’s Common Sense: A Revolutionary Life and Legacy Welcome Back Patriots! Okay, today, we are going to talk about a man that many have heard of, as well as the remarkable impact his words on parchment had on the entire cause, the civilians and more importantly, the Continental Army itself. I am talking about Thomas Paine.  I will discuss his auspicious beginning, we will dive into two of his most famous writings, “The American Crisis” and “Common Sense,” and how well they sold and the impact they had will likely amaze you.  I will also talk about what he did after the war, which did NOT help his popularity any.  Then, I will talk about what happened happened after his death, well, what happened to his body, which is hard to fathom.  It’s odd, funny and sad at the same time.

Episode 45 • Freedom Files #10 • 10 minutes with Thomas Paine Welcome Back Patriots! In previous episodes I have discussed the video series called “The Patriot Power Freedom Files” which is available on TikTok, YouTube, X, Instagram and more. All links are listed below.   These videos are short but packed full of historical information on a person, place, battle or other American Revolutionary War related subject.  The video series also includes photos within the video making it come alive a little more. The audio of each Freedom Files Video Series will be posted within the Patriot Power Podcast, as is this one. You can view all video files on TikTok, YouTube or the shows website. In this short episode, I talk about the crazy life and impact of Thomas Paine.
