Welcome to the Programming Lines podcast. Today we have Truth bomb mom. First, can you just tell us about yourself and what truth bomb mom means? Yeah, of course. I'm a mom before I'm a Christian conservative, and I'm also very into Maha Make America healthy again. And truth bomb Mom just means I'm gonna be dropping truth bombs. All the time, whether you like it or not, whether it hurts your feelings and you kind of just have to deal with it. Okay. I like that. That's fair. Yeah. And then just going straight into other topics, you mentioned Maha and I haven't heard a lot about that Okay. Lately. So I'm just wondering, like, have you heard anything we heard like Maha was. All over the place going into the last election and coming outta the last election, and then it seems to have quieted down. What are, is that, what's your perspective on that? Um, yeah, I think that RFK is fighting a lot of big battles. Yeah. Behind the scenes. I know he's doing, he's trying his best. Especially with like the childhood vaccine stuff, I know that Trump is really like listening to RFK Yeah. Mm-hmm. When it comes to the childhood vaccine schedule. So I think we're gonna be hearing more over time. Unfortunately American's health always goes on the back burner. Mm-hmm. It's just one of those things where there's so many other issues that health just seems to always go on the back burner. But yeah, I, I did hear Trump talk about spraying the skies. Did you guys see that clip? Where he talked about we're not gonna, we shouldn't be spraying the skies. Yeah. And I was like, what? This is amazing. I know. Who is the sky? Yeah. We don't wanna put chemicals into the air for everybody. Come on. Yeah. Yeah. Seems, but I mean, the conspiracy theories, they are actually true. Mm-hmm. And the fact that this administration is like realizing that and recognizing that is huge. Yeah. Right. Right. Yeah. So going a little bit on from that because there's a lot of bad stuff in our food. And speaking of that, our mom has been addicted to that a lot lately about trying to find the bad things and getting us the better stuff. So she did a parasite cleanse and she was very mad when nothing came out of her. So, and I've heard that actually, that you've done a parasite cleanse. I have. So can you may tell us a little bit about that? Maybe if you've seen anything Possibly. Yes. Okay. So we started on the health journey as far as parasites go years ago it, it's actually really more complex than people realize. First of all, there's a lot of microscopic parasites, so you're not always gonna see something. And people do get really like, hyped up, like, I'm gonna see these big worms come outta me, and they don't. Yeah. Um, but really it, when it comes to that side, at least if you're feeling better, are your. Random headaches, your tinnitus, your like eczema. Are these issues going away? Then maybe your parasite cleanse work. However, on the other side of that mm-hmm. What a lot of people don't know, and a lot of these parasite cleanses don't address, is that you have to have a binder with your parasite cleanse that binds to the toxins, the heavy metals the bacteria, the fungus, the mold. That's what parasites eat. That's their food source. Um, and they actually create these little biofilms so that's their, like, cozy home. And the biofilm of made is made of toxins. So you have to actually start breaking that down first. Mm-hmm. With your binder. Um, so some people use a seal light or activated charcoal or, um. Ivermectin. Mm-hmm. Oh my God. If you don't have the binder, you can't, ivermectin can't really do its job. Right?'cause the parasites, some of them will hide even deeper in the body. Some of them will realize they're being attacked pretty smart. Mm-hmm. And they'll make more parasites. So it's one of those things where, that's the education piece that I work on is make sure you have a binder to go with your cleanse. Is, do most of the cleanses provide that with them? No. Oh, really? Oh, wow. They're kind of being irresponsive. Do you have a suggestion because it's a lot of research to go into it, but like maybe you could just, if you had a suggestion then people could just do that, right? Totally. What, what would you recommend? Yeah, I would recommend Zeolite, clin, Opal Lights, zeolites. They have 300 PubMed studies on them. Okay. And actually, like that's a product I use and promote because I believe in it so much. Okay. And our family, we use that every day of the week, all year. Because of our water, our food, our air. Yeah. Everything has toxins, so you might as well, right. It's very safe and gentle for ages one and up and um, you know, you can go to the link in my bio if you're looking at me on Instagram and you can check it out there, but Okay. That is what I recommend everybody do for one to two months. It's gonna like break down the biofilms mm-hmm. And the toxins. And then when you go in with your parasite cleanse. It's gonna, they're gonna come out. Wow. Okay. So maybe that's, well, maybe we'll have to wrong. Yeah. Yeah. She, I think she was hoping to like look into the toilet and see like a bed of vipers in there. I don't know what she was hoping for. Yeah. But something more obvious than what happened. But to your point, like a lot of these things are micro levels that you might not even see. Yeah. So, Hmm. Yeah. Yeah, my first parasite cleanse, actually, well before it, I had my blood analyzed under a, a microscope and I saw microscopic parasites. Is that right? Swimming in my bloodstream. Oh, I know. And I, I knew it because I didn't feel good at all, and I was like. There they are. Like I knew it. Hmm. Now I kind of wish I didn't ask. Can now I'm grossed out. No. I don't think I'll be able to eat the rest of the day. You'll be fine. When you get hungry, it'll all change. Will. Yeah. Right. Maybe come hungry right now. Parasites aside. Let's just hope that I forget about this during that time when I'm eating. Right. Right. And then we can maybe go back into it. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So going off that weird topic, um, let's go and what brought you to AM Fest here? Well I was invited, which is so cool. You know, I started on the, on Instagram four years ago. Literally just like ranting and raving and being really mad about, you know, trying to take our medical freedom away. Mm-hmm. Yeah. And, um, I never, I just used it as a therapeutic tool. Because my in-laws actually were very, like N-P-R-C-N-N, they wouldn't see us for 18 months. And my kids were crying, as you can imagine, not being able to see your grandparents for 18 months. Mm-hmm. Wow. Yeah. Um, and I just was like, I need to get all this stuff off my chest that I've been holding in for years. I had all these screenshots I collected and data, so I literally just started talking and it blew up. Mm-hmm. And then I got, I got invited here last year and being able to like. Be a part of the turning point and what they're doing and partner with them has been like such a huge blessing, a privilege. Like I kind of have imposter syndrome, like do I even belong here? Like yeah, it's a great, it's, it's a great organization and, and great people. So when you started speaking out around, it sounds like around COVID time. Mm-hmm. Did you get blacklisted or your account get flagged or anything like that when you were speaking up? Oh yes. I had. So my first account within six months, I was shadow banned. Oh. Um, and it was the worst shadow banned and it lasted for eight months. So I started a second account. Mm-hmm. I got that one to grow pretty fast. That one got shadow banned and I literally just kept posting. I was like, nothing is gonna stop me. I'm, nothing's gonna hold me back. Yeah. And somehow from like views and license shares, it broke the shadow mans. Yeah. But it was just like me being like, I don't care. I've gotta get this out. The system is like. So really how, how, how do you recognize a shadow pan? I'm curious. Um, all of a sudden, like you're getting follows, likes, views, and then you get nothing. Mm-hmm. It's like silence. Okay. Yeah. We've probably had, that happened in a few times. I think we've been subject to that a a few times. We go through cycles and then we'll have like a post that breaks the chain sort of. Yeah. And then, and then. The account grows really fast again, then suddenly it stop again. It just suddenly stops again. It's kind of a weird cycle. Yeah, it's super weird. I'm in that right now. Yeah. I'm in some kind of weird low vibrational Yeah. Thing. That's why, you know, I tell people like just, you know, continue to be consistent because you just never know. Like when one thing's gonna kind of break through and then you'll get all this exposure and people will wanna see the things that you put out. So, yeah. Um, yeah, we've been in that universe too. It's, it's kind of tricky and, uh, it is, yeah. Navigating social media. Yeah, and I mean, I heard Gary V say this one time, he was like, imagine you're talking to 50 people in a room, if that's all that hears you. That's 50 people Yeah. That you're making an impact on. Or a hundred or 300. Like don't be mad about the low views or you're still making an impact on real people. Right, right. Yeah. So I always think about who's the one or two or whatever, however many people that I'm speaking to that need to hear what I have to say. You, uh, you must get a lot of hate too, right? Not as much anymore, really. Yeah. Good for you. I mean, now that I, now that I'm saying things about, like take, I've kind of said a little bit about Candace Owens and, um. Okay, sure. Of course. The conservatives like, came out. I was like, you guys are really, like, you're not thinking clearly. But anyway. Yeah. Yeah. Back in the day I used to get tons of hate. Sure. Death threats. We had three people try to, you know, whatever you call it, like legal action against us. Take legal action against us. Okay. Yeah. My husband's business, we have a local. Business. Mm-hmm. And we had clients leaving and telling us we were hateful and I was a horrible person and they, I, my, their kids weren't safe around us because we have a client based business where we serve families. Okay. That's insane. Yeah. And it, it was ridiculous because we had known these people for like eight years. Yeah. And we had given them jobs and like done so much for them and for them to act like that just because of some stuff I said they didn't like was Yeah. Outrageous. It is inter, it's wild because a lot of people just associate, if you support anything related to Trump, doesn't even mean you have to say out like pounding the table about Trump. Trump, Trump every day. But if you support Maha, for example, like make America healthy it, we had people just not like us because we support this thing that got kind of affiliated with Trump and yeah, so there's like this Trump, Trump derangement syndrome. Trump is real, I guess it is what I'm saying. And people will associate anything to it. Like if you support one policy of his that you are now like, you know, devil demon, Trump supporter. And so I think that is also what happened with Maha. But ultimately, like, I think it was great because Maha kind of connecting, you know, with the Trump movement got it into fruition, got a a, a bigger voice and, and RFK can get things done now, like we liked RFK. Before he, you know, aligned with Trump. Yeah. And his message and the things that he was doing. And so seeing them come together, I think just allowed us to capitalize on the moment and get, get more, get more things done. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Well, and I think too, like Maha is where a lot of like liberals and conservatives align Yes. On the food and the dyes and Yeah. All these things, I mean, we used to, but now they're popping Tylenol, uh, being pregnant. Oh. Like, just, just to spite'em. I know. Ridiculous. You're insane. But actually last year when I left Ambe, I had my Make America healthy hat on, on the plane, and the flight attendants were very liberal. Mm-hmm. And I went to use the bathroom and the flight attendant, who I could tell was L-G-B-T-Q. Mm-hmm. Yeah. Immediately he's like, what does your hat mean? And I could tell he was kinda like on edge, feeling like really kind of like. His walls were up towards me. Yeah. Yeah. And I just started explaining, well, we're trying to get Gly phosphate, you know, trying to get them to stop doing that, on spraying it on crops and trying to get chemtrails banned and the red dyes. And he was like, actually, I really agree with you there. Mm-hmm. And he thanked me. He said, thank you for telling me that. I had no idea. Yeah. So I just think that there's not enough information about Maha and how, what it means Yeah. And how it connects to the Trump administration. Right, right. I actually like being slightly critical of Maha. I think they could do a better job on getting their message out there. Yeah. The marketing of the things that they are prioritizing and pushing because they, they almost get taken too far down the, the Trump rabbit hole and TDS alignment. Uh, because they are doing incredible things to keep the population safe. Like you said, pesticides red forties been banned. I think that's gonna be effective in a few years. But like, those are good steps towards healthier population. And so, uh, that's so important for our country. And, and I wish people would just split the Trump derangement syndrome from making America healthy so that we can focus on Yeah. What's good for Americans. Totally. Yeah. Also, it's weird'cause like they haven't really been posting that much lately. I remember in the very beginning of Trump's they were basically banning a bunch of things like red 40. Mm-hmm. And like last night we were coming up with the questions. I was like, oh yeah, Mohawks exists because I totally forgot that they were around.'cause they haven't really been doing anything lately. Yeah, yeah. They have been, I think it's just, uh, I haven't seen anything to, because. Well, I haven't looked. Yeah, to ADE's point, I think it's just been more like administrative behind the scenes, and it's difficult. Once you get into the slog of that, it's like heavy. Yeah. Yeah. But anyway, what else we got? I have been very interested in homeschooling lately. Oh, okay. As dad and mom might know, he's put forward, he's put forward a compelling case. But go ahead. Yeah. So I am curious. What would you say to like somebody who is on the edge of like, homeschooling or just me staying in like a charter, public or private school? What are some main reasons why somebody should homeschool? That's a great question. So for us I think there was like a pull towards it. So just an internal pull, like, I'm very curious about this. So when you have that, you know, it's important to really go down that rabbit hole, but. For us, we really wanted more flexibility. Um, we felt my daughter does dance four days a week. My kids do this ninja thing. I feel like we're always running around. There's soccer, there's church, there's this and that. And I just, we were like, oh my gosh, we're in some kind of grind. We'd never have time to just like hang out and just be together. So we just, and my kids' school had really let us down in a many, many ways that were kind of came outta nowhere. Mm-hmm. So we were like, you know what, let's just pull'em out and let's just like see what happens and let God. Take the wheel here. Mm-hmm. And the first six months we really didn't do any school.'cause people said you need to like detox from school, which I thought was interesting, but I really did start to see it.'cause I was like, okay, we're gonna sit down and do our bugs. And our kids were like, no, we're not. And I was like, okay, maybe we need to rethink how we do this. So I literally just was like, okay, you have your chores, we have this to go to or that to go to. I just let them get really, really bored and they, they did like their own spelling bee. They did like a lemonade stand. They started just doing all these really cool, creative things. Dad, what you thinking more about this? Maybe, maybe, maybe. I love that you want to do it. I really wanted That's so cool. You guys are like. Not even like a voice in his head. He just kind of wants to do it. I Why you wanna do it? Well, at school I feel like we waste a lot of our time. Like we're at school for like seven hours a day and half of those I feel like are pretty unnecessary. And half of those I feel like maybe could do more of. Like, I love math. Oh my gosh. So, and we only have one hour of math per day. It's so hard to squeeze the entire lesson in. And like now that we're doing algebra, it's harder to like remember it all. Right. Meanwhile with like, for example, literature and composition, we have an entire hour of that and often we have too much time. Like this year, basically for the last 30 minutes we've been reading our homework in class because. There's not really anything else to do. Mm-hmm. Um, it's also the same with like, for example, music arts. Right. Those things, if you really, if you really like those, you can do those maybe. Yeah. Meanwhile, like, you don't need to do, do those if you don't want to, or you also have to study the language that they have available and push in the school. So, yeah, like we're studying Latin for some reason. Yeah. La Latin is. Like a base, like Latin is a base language, but, but before that it was French. You're not gonna like read anything. It's like unless you go to France or parts of Canada. So for us living in Phoenix, obviously Spanish, Spanish should be very helpful, be like a very helpful language. Could choose the language that I wanna learn instead of one that I have to learn, and then more interested in it. Yeah. And then you're, you're more apt to actually learn it. Yeah. And use it. So anyway, but we're learning Russian now of all things. Ooh. Yeah. Well. Crazy story. Basically during ba, kinda like fall break. We went to Russia for two weeks and spent some days at St. Petersburg, Moscow and Sochi. And. Now Dad loves that place and Mom also does like that a little bit. Incredible. Yeah. And have you been I have. Oh really? Where Russia, where did she go? It's so fun. I went to St. Petersburg in Moscow. Okay. Yeah. Yeah. Beautiful, beautiful place. So amazing. I mean, they get a lot of bad stigma because of politics and leadership, but you put that aside and like the history there is beautiful. It's incredible. I know the, the Onion Dome churches. When I first saw those, I was like, they look like they're out of a dream. Yeah. Yeah. They were just incredible. You should have gone to St. Petersburg that Oh, she did? Yeah, I did. Oh, I thought you said Sochi in Moscow. Wait, did you see St. Isaac's Cathedral? Probably. This was a long time ago when I was in college, so I couldn't tell you all the places I went, but I just remember being like, this is one of the most amazing places I've ever been. And we got to hang out with the locals and they were really awesome. Yeah, people there were really nice. Yeah, very kind. And helpful. And so well anyway, and thin, very thin. Did you notice when you were there? Yes, they were. We only saw one homeless person also. Wow. Yeah. Like I didn't see a gum wrapper on the ground. That's how clean it was. But yes, people were generally, maybe the men were a little bit bigger on average than, like, the women were all very like thin, healthy, but they, as far as I could see, they don't eat a lot of heavily processed foods like we do here. They have. Built in now some fast food chains and things into their, into the cities especially. But outside of that it's a lot of just local farmers and grown foods. Yeah, they do vape a lot. They vape a lot. Everybody's vaping. Yeah. I don't know. It is funny'cause they're like, their restaurants there, like the fast food restaurants are basically rip offs of this place. Oh really? Like they have stars coffee. Rock ruckus chicken or whatever. It's like a ripoff. KFC. Oh, they basically use the exact same logo. Yeah. Yeah. Well, names, I think they were, it's so fun. It's funny. I think they, I think they were offshoots of American brands, but they had to rebrand them during the sanctions and push ownership around. But, well, anyway, just we digress on Russia. Let's get back to health, huh? Or. Homeschooling. Yes. Homeschooling. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So homeschooling, you can just specialize it and you can go really, like if you really wanted to learn Spanish all the way, you would have the time to do that. Yeah. Or music or any kind of specialized thing. Yeah. Mm-hmm. So that's kind of cool about it as well. How do you deal with the social? A lot of people, their objection is, well, they won't get all the social interaction, so how do you adjust for that? I mean. School is not very social. Mm-hmm. Right? You're sitting in a classroom, you have to be quiet. You're not, it's more of an obedience test, right? You're not allowed to talk to the people sitting next to you. You're only allowed to talk to them at recess or in the hall. So I don't necessarily agree with that. Homeschooling, you can go a million different activities. You can get your kids involved as many things as you want to with tons of different kids, tons of different ages. So there's tons of opportunity to be social and what I've noticed is that the homeschool kids are really kind. Just really nice kind kids. We actually, the neighborhood we live in. Is all public school kids.'cause it's a a k through eight public school. We live in a pretty nice, safe area. Yeah. They all walk there and our kids are pretty much the only ones that don't go there. And the kids are, that they interact with are mean, they're very cliquey. They're kind of. Dirty. Yeah. Things they say. And maybe that's just our, where what we're, we're exposed to. You seem like a great kid. Thank you. Um, but I'm like, is this, why is there such a big difference? We get a lot of engagement from young people on social media. You can tell just by the, the things that they say and sometimes their account profiles that they're young and the level of like vile, disgusting things that they say. I don't know if they get some kind of weird satisfaction out of that it's, but it's disturbing to say the least, so, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Mom, I hope, I hope you heard that over there because this is. Very important to listen to. We'll, uh, okay. Yes. We'll, we'll do you go to private? Uh, we go to a charter school, so like, kind of right in the middle. But yeah, it's a, it's actually a very good school, but because they are a charter school, it's classical education. They have, yeah, the teachers are great. Uh, the curriculum is great. It's classical education, but they do have to abide by certain state standards and everything. And so yeah, we do feel like there's. Time optimization issues and so, yeah. But any rate, uh, it's good to hear that you're having luck with it, so Yeah. Yeah. Hopefully that maybe changed your guys' mind a little bit. We will, because I really once, uh, okay. Okay. I'll say that the only, you know, it's a lot on the parents uhhuh when you homeschool, so it's just things to weigh and consider. But if you're self-motivated, if you are driven and you can get your work done, and they can just kindly say like. Do your work and you do it, then it's not as hard on the parents. It's the one, the kids who you're like, okay, do this page. Do that page. Okay. Maybe you guys could be each other's, like teacher, you could come up with the curriculum. I would make sure. I would make sure Max actually gets his work done. Yeah. Yeah. Max, I'll make you do three hours of math per day. I know you love math, don't you? No. Yes you do. He'll be giving you your grades. No. Yes, I like this idea. This will keep you guys accountable. So what do you like in school? What subjects are you enjoying? Dismissal. Dismissal. Okay. That's not a subject Max. And, yeah. Okay. All right. All right. Yeah. Or I guess the one, I mean, I have a lot of freedom in history, and then also that's, you know, history. That's my favorite subject. But we can also talk in that subject until I see him. Uh, bless you man. Really? Yeah. You're weird. Well, let's do this. Let's wrap it up. Final question, Adele, is what would you do or say to parents out there that are trying to motivate their kids into being good, strong, young leaders? That's what we are all about, but I would love to have your advice as we kind of wrap things up. Yeah, yeah. That's a good question. I'm also trying to do that very much. Mm-hmm. I think raising them right is, is really key. Like what you expose them to is very vital to who they become. Sure. And also what you say to them. I mean, we're constantly saying you're a leader. We're not gonna do things like everybody else does things. Mm-hmm. We do things our way. We follow God. We do what God tells us to do. Mm-hmm. This is the direction we're going. Mm-hmm. And we're just always saying it. Always. And we find that our kids will come to us and say, these kids are doing that. And I'm like, well, we don't do it that way. Right. You know? So I think it's just one of those things you say all the time, you really. Help them to understand like the vision of the family. The vision of how they ought to be as a human. Right. Okay. Yeah. So values and faith. Yeah. And kinda reiterating that. Alright. And speaking that life into them. Yeah. That's good. That sounds similar to our attempts. It's not always easy, is it boys? Yeah. No. Parenting is very difficult. It is. I tell them, like, you don't realize it, but one day when you're a parent, you'll realize it's, uh, it's the most rewarding, but also the most challenging task you'll probably ever have. Totally. Yeah. Yeah. All right. Where can people find you on any social media? So, I'm primarily on Instagram at Truth Bomb Mom, and I've tried TikTok. TikTok doesn't like me, so I just stick with what works. And I'm also on Facebook under Adele Freedom. Okay. Okay, well we'll link those in so people can check you out. Thank you. We love your work and the voice that you have out there. So keep up the great work and thanks so much for taking time with us here at America Fest. Thank you for having me. Yeah, thank you. You guys are awesome.
