Ep. 185 The Jedi Returns: Represenative Jeff Shipley
In this episode, we return our State Represenative Jeff Shipley of Iowa's political district 87 (Van Buren, Jefferson, and Henry county)
This interview felt all over the place, but both needed to get ideas and thoughts out. Rep. Shipley and I dive into about this simulation we create in our lives. An illusion we cast on ourselves that creates our own matrix or prison. We are fearfully and wonderfully made by our Creator and has enownded us with more than we grant ourselves. Rep. Shipley works hard for the people of Van Buren, Jefferson, and Henry county by listening to the needs of his constiuents. Rep. Shipley has fought hard against a certain well known virus jabb requirement, glyphosate concerns, introducing whole and organic foods for our public schools, and pesticides in our water.
I'm proud to call Rep. Shipley my friend and represnative.The only politican I trust. I hope you enjoy this long over due interview.
