FTL & LRN.FM Updates

New Affiliate in KY :: Discord Purge

November 30th, 2019 - 10:58pm by FTL_Admin in

Free Talk Live welcomes our new listeners in Prestonsburg, KY on WDOC-AM, weekdays 11a-Noon! We're the midday show! As always, you can see the full list of over 200 radio affiliates here . If you like seeing us add new radio stations, please get behind the show's AMP program at http://amp.freetalklive.com for just $5 (or BTC) per month! You'll get some cool perks and help us spread the ideas of freedom.

Also, every now and then I initiate a purge of accounts from the LRN.FM Discord server that have not logged in within 30 days. I like our server's user count to be accurate and that helps keep the numbers honest. However if you got caught in a purge, logging back in to the server is simple and you'll instantly be back without having to register a new account, since the account registration process is discord-wide. If you would like to join, or re-...

FTL Hosts Team Up With Vermin Supreme for "Guns N' Ponies" Event

November 24th, 2019 - 12:37pm by FTL_Admin in

Last Friday, multiple Free Talk Live hosts and a couple of visiting listeners attended the epic "Guns N' Ponies" Vermin Supreme campaign event. FTL's Jay Noone gets all the credit for the brilliant idea, which Vermin executed with aplomb. Jay's brother brought up a pony and small horse from his farm in Massachusetts for the event which kicked off from a Free Stater-owned bar, Area 23, in Concord, NH. A group of hardcore Vermin supporters came out to march with him, which combined open carry of guns with Pony Power. FTL hosts Chris W, Nobody, Ian, Jay, and even a couple of listeners who happened to be visiting the Shire that week were there along with other Vermin fans. We donned some V masks and pony gear and marched nearly two miles to the NH state house where Vermin spoke to various people who happened by. If you missed the event, don't miss the video I edited...

Direct download problems continue.

November 3rd, 2019 - 4:41pm by FTL_Admin in

Unfortunately for the last couple of weeks our Soundcloud account has been serving up incorrect filenames when trying to directly download from FreeTalkLive.com. Soundcloud has yet to fix this issue and I haven't decided how much longer I want to wait for it. If you are a direct downloader, you can temporarily fix the problem by renaming the generic filename of "Soundcloud Download" to have a .mp3 after it. Our file naming system is FTLYYYY-MM-DD.mp3, but you can name the files whatever you want, so long as it ends in .mp3, it should play back just fine on your preferred listening device.

I'm told that the filename issue is not affecting our podcast listeners. If you would like to move from direct downloads to automatic podcast downloads, please subscribe to our podcast. You can just enter this URL into your podcast client: http://feeds.feedburner.com/ftlradio or subscribe to one of our other feeds at...

October 12th, 2019 - 11:04am by FTL_Admin in

During last night's Freer Talk Live featuring me, Nobody, and Captain Kickass, raving lunatic James Wittekind called in and we gave him his own show.
