🎙️ Tonight on The Above The Bar Podcast 🕗 Live Tonight at 8 PM EST

Tonight’s guest is Paul Musson, veteran investment professional, financial reform advocate, and author of the book Capital Offence: Why Some Benefit At Your Expense.

With more than 30 years in the investment industry, Paul has seen firsthand how global financial systems operate. He previously served as the lead portfolio manager for the Ivy Funds at Mackenzie Investments, managing billions in assets and gaining deep insight into the forces shaping modern economic policy.

Paul is also the founder of Paddington Capital Management, where he provides independent investment consulting and analysis. Through his work and his Paulitical Economy™ blog, he focuses on helping people understand complex financial systems in plain language.

Tonight we’ll explore big questions like: • Why do economic systems often benefit a small group at the expense of many? • How do debt-driven policies affect everyday people? • What role do central banks play in shaping wealth distribution? • What reforms could create a more balanced financial future?

Paul’s work challenges people to think differently about money, policy, and the long-term consequences of economic decisions.

🎙️ TONIGHT on The Above The Bar Podcast 🕗 Live at 8 PM EST

Tonight we sit down with Mike Campbell — Marine veteran, father of two, small business owner, and a man who has walked through PTSD and come out on the other side with purpose.

For years, Mike believed strength meant handling everything alone. As a Marine, he was trained to push through pain. What he experienced during service followed him home, and instead of facing it, he tried to outwork it and outrun it.

Diagnosed with PTSD in 2015, it still took time before he fully confronted what was happening inside. The C and P exam was a breaking point. Entering a long-term VA program became the turning point.

It was there, surrounded by fellow veterans who understood the struggle, that he learned a powerful truth:

Seeking help is not weakness. “The only way thru, is thru.”

Tonight we’ll talk about: • What PTSD really looks like after the uniform comes off • Why pride and silence keep so many veterans stuck • How faith changed his path and deepened his relationship with Jesus • The mission behind Mission Guided Light • The vision for Rockland Revival Festival and building a community rooted in renewal

Mike’s story is about more than survival. It’s about transformation. It’s about taking pain and turning it into a platform to help others heal.

Join us live tonight at 8 PM EST.

🎙️ This week on The Above The Bar Podcast we’re joined by Travis Misurell LIVE on Wednesday, Feb 25th at 8 PM EST.

Travis is building FiNC with one clear mission. Upgrade how America chooses its leaders so citizens can finally find and support candidates they actually believe in.

Here’s the core idea we’ll unpack together: Right now big money and party gatekeepers decide who is “electable” before most people ever see real options. FiNC is working on a citizen owned approach that gives every candidate a fair shot and gives voters a clearer way to compare leaders using real information, not spin.

We’ll also talk about Travis’s lens that cuts through the noise fast: Stop asking Left vs Right. Start asking Up or Down. Up means power first. Down means people first. That one question changes how you see everything.

What we’ll cover in the episode: How the Digital Politics Hub helps citizens plug in and take action now How FiNC plans to move toward a true digital democracy Why momentum matters if we want real features live by the 2026 midterms

Come hang out live, jump in the comments, and bring your questions.
