Buckle up for the fastest, funniest legal hour on radio as Attorney Patrick Smith takes on the wild world of Sovereign Citizens and Squatters — two groups united by their firm belief that rules are optional.
From a Clearwater traffic stop where Sergeant Curtis shows saint-level patience asking for a license seven times while the driver insists he’s “traveling” (not driving), to a courtroom meltdown with Magistrate Ward Harshbarger counting to three like an exhausted parent before contempt cuffs come out — these interactions are pure radio gold. Patrick breaks down why these pseudo-legal tactics never work, from fake tags and “American National” claims to unauthorized practice of law (a third-degree felony, folks — Google Law degrees come with risks).
Then we pivot to squatters: the A&E series Squatters featuring Flash Shelton (great name) and his creative eviction methods, including reptile therapy to encourage an uncooperative occupant to leave. Florida law strongly favors owners — seven years of continuous occupation + paying taxes for adverse possession? Good luck with that.
Plus: Maddie the Surfer Girl’s killer after-show, Patrick’s Walmart flash drive rescue mission (thanks Bob & EZE!), 23 years of marriage wisdom, progress on the Florida Homestead Law Review article, and Gators baseball predictions (10-7 over Georgia, naturally).
Real law. Real chaos. Real laughs. If you’ve ever wanted to know how not to handle a traffic stop or protect your property from unwanted guests, this episode delivers.
Call 800-771-1025 with your sovereign stories or squatter nightmares. Heart and soul on the airwaves — stay safe, God bless, and Go Gators!
