Finding Freedom
Finding Freedom is a long-form podcast focused on entrepreneurship, health, and politics, featuring in-depth conversations with independent thinkers, business owners, researchers, and cultural critics. Hosted by John Odermatt, the show explores how centralized institutions, corporate power, and political narratives impact personal freedom, health, and economic opportunity. Episodes cover entrepreneurship and financial independence, health and wellness, medical freedom, government overreach, media bias, culture, and faith. Guests range from entrepreneurs and medical professionals to academics and journalists. Finding Freedom is designed for listeners who value long-form discussion, intellectual honesty, and practical insights into building a healthier, freer, and more resilient life.
