I write about travel, economics, politics, religion, and other sensitive topics. I’m surprised I haven’t been canceled yet (not for lack of trying).
I’ve been to just over 50 countries (gotten detained in two of them) and have now settled down into a small town in the Ozarks, where I co-run a small advertising agency, and try to find spare time to drive the Gwagen in the woods and shoot suppressed assault rifles at dead tree trunks.
I’ve written a bestselling non-fiction marketing textbook, as well as a few other definitely-not-bestselling diatribes. I have a wife, a child, and a dog.
The Iconoclast
I run a newsletter called The Iconoclast. I try to send things every week. I think you’ll enjoy.
I’ve been called everything from a “beanpole dunce” to a “rich white agency owner” to simply a “clown”, which honestly are the best endorsements I could possibly ask for.
You can get more of that here!

I write The Iconoclast: cowboy economics, contrarian politics, maverick travel, and anything else that could get me canceled. I published a bestselling book, and have traveled to over 50 countries.
