Hey, this is Brett Myceles from the Midas Touch Podcast. Today, I want to share with you a fascinating

new podcast I just started listening to called The Last Resort. Here's the premise. What if

California seceded from the United States? If it did, what would happen? Would it usher in a

new era of peace and prosperity or plunge the U.S. into a new civil war? This is The Last Resort,

a new documentary podcast following the rise, Fall and Rebirth of Cal Exit, the campaign for

Californian Independence. It's a story about a dream for a new progressive utopia on the West Coast.

It's about the fight for America's future, and it's also a tale of two friends who started on

the political fringe and ended up in the middle of a still unfolding global criminal conspiracy

involving the FBI and Russian intelligence. Listen to new episodes of The Last Resort every Tuesday

on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Amazon Music or wherever you get your podcasts. And now take a

listen to this clip from The Last Resort. Last June, Megan the Stallion was performing at

Glastonbury Festival, which she stopped to let the crowd know how she was feeling.

That Friday, the U.S. Supreme Court had overturned Roe vs Wade, ending the constitutional rights

on abortion. Megan, like many others, wished for a process, the horror of it all.

Performer after performer took the staves that weekend to speak out. Phoebe Bridges, a

Livia Rodrigo, and that is stated and terrified. So many women and so many girls are going to die

because of this. Billy Joe Armstrong from Green Day,

F*** an America, and F*** an announcing my citizenship. F*** an Italian. Millions of other people

raised their voices and protests that weekend. Across America, people marched, they donated,

and they looked to their government for a response. In California, Governor Gavin Newsom

immediately announced an effort to enshrine abortion rights into the state constitution.

We are going to enshrine that, codify that as we should in the state constitution.
