What happens when free speech disappears? 🇺🇸🇬🇧 In this clip, we break down the growing contrast between freedoms in the United States and countries like the UK and Canada—where people are now facing jail time for online opinions. While many criticize America, this conversation dives into what those freedoms actually cost when they’re gone, from speech restrictions to government overreach. This is a raw, unfiltered discussion about rights, accountability, and why so many people wouldn’t actually leave the U.S. if given the chance. 👉 Watch the full episode on our YouTube channel or listen on any major podcast platform by searching North Idaho Experience. 🛠 For Real Estate Services or Questions: Contact us at seth@nidexperience.com Phone: 208-618-4421 For the most up-to-date real estate listings check out my North Idaho Experience mobile app - click above to start searching today! https://bk.homestack.com/northidahoexperience/?aik=khorst Grab our Relocation Guide: https://sholink.to/Relocation Your Ultimate Selling Game Plan guide: https://sholink.to/Sellerguide 📍 Visit our website for more resources, real estate listings, and local content: https://northidahoexperience.com 👤 Connect with Ivan Pinchuk ( Loan Depot & Jersery Mikes) Jersey Mikes Hayden : https://www.jerseymikes.com/43020/hayden-id?utm_source=google&utm_medium=organic&utm_campaign=listings Loan Depot: https://www.loandepot.com/rpinchuk 💼 Interested in sponsoring a future episode or collaborating with us?
