- 0:04Speaker 1: Welcome to More Than Medicine, where Jesus is more than enough for the ills that plague our culture and our country.
- 0:10Speaker 1: Hosted by author and physician, dr Robert Jackson, and his wife Carlotta and daughter Hannah Miller.
- 0:16Speaker 1: So listen up, because the doctor is in.
- 0:23Dr.Robert Jackson: Welcome to More Than Medicine.
- 0:24Dr.Robert Jackson: I'm your host, dr Robert Jackson, bringing to you biblical insights and stories from the country doctors, rusty, dusty, scrapbait.
- 0:33Dr.Robert Jackson: Well, I'm delighted today to have as my guest Joe Wolverton, who has been with us previously.
- 0:40Dr.Robert Jackson: He's online today, Joe, welcome to More Than Medicine.
- 0:45Joe Wolverton: Well, thank you, doctor.
- 0:46Joe Wolverton: I appreciate you having me on again.
- 0:47Joe Wolverton: It's been a while.
- 0:48Dr.Robert Jackson: It has been, and I'm going to ask you to reintroduce yourself to my listeners.
- 0:52Dr.Robert Jackson: Tell them a little bit about yourself and your family and what you do.
- 0:57Dr.Robert Jackson: Who's your mama, who's your daddy, and are they rich like me?
- 0:59Dr.Robert Jackson: You know how that song used to go.
- 1:04Joe Wolverton: Well, I'm from Memphis, tennessee, where I still live.
- 1:09Joe Wolverton: Well, I live out in the country near Memphis now, but family from here for a long way back.
- 1:13Joe Wolverton: I was a constitutional attorney focusing on Fourth Amendment issues, helping people sue the government when the government illegally and unconstitutionally searched and seized their property.
- 1:31Joe Wolverton: And then I now work for the John Birch Society.
- 1:35Joe Wolverton: I am their constitutional law scholar, which means anything that comes out from the John Birch Society regarding the Constitution it goes through me to make sure it's accurate, and so that's an important job to me.
- 1:49Joe Wolverton: I took it as a great honor that they hired me on to do that.
- 1:52Joe Wolverton: I was the first one they hired to do that in their long, rich history, so I was very humbled and grateful for that, and they've also.
- 2:00Joe Wolverton: We've had a change in leadership past six months or so and they asked me to take charge of the publishing arm of the John Birch Society, which is known as Western Islands, the John Birch Society helping people, helping educate people, because ultimately that's the goal of the John Birch Society is less government, more responsibility and, with God's help, a better world.
- 2:34Dr.Robert Jackson: Education is our greatest strategy and truth is our only weapon.
- 2:39Joe Wolverton: That's right, and so making sure that everything that we put out is true.
- 2:44Joe Wolverton: Everything that we put out, you know, obviously glorifies our father, and everything that we put out helps people come to value liberty the way our fathers valued it and to be able to give an answer to anyone who asks why we care so much about the Constitution and about liberty.
- 3:07Joe Wolverton: And that's what they've hired me to do and I'm grateful to be doing it and that's my full-time job, although, as an attorney, they occasionally, you know, want me to look over contracts and that sort of thing.
- 3:20Joe Wolverton: They've asked me to do that just to their previous guy is getting up and has an age and has retired, and so they've asked me to do that.
- 3:29Joe Wolverton: But typically, day in, day out, it's mostly making sure our books that we publish are squared away and say the right things and in the right way, and making sure that the things we talk about regarding the Constitution are accurate and are inspiring, and that sort of thing.
- 3:51Dr.Robert Jackson: Let me say that's an important job and it's been very valuable to me because probably 43 years now I've been reading the literature of the John Birch Society and reading their Every Other Week magazine.
- 4:05Dr.Robert Jackson: And people ask me all the time say, dr Jackson, how do you know all this stuff?
- 4:09Dr.Robert Jackson: And I immediately say to them that I read the New American, which used to be the Review of the News way back when I first started, and that's how I stay constitutionally grounded and that's how I know the truth about the issues that are going on in our world.
- 4:26Dr.Robert Jackson: And I tell them immediately you should be reading the New American and you should be reading the books produced by the John Birch Society.
- 4:34Dr.Robert Jackson: That's how you will know the truth of what's going on in our world today.
- 4:38Dr.Robert Jackson: And I appreciate what you do and what the John Burke Society does to keep folks like us accurately informed.
- 4:48Dr.Robert Jackson: So that's my little plug for what you guys do.
- 4:51Joe Wolverton: Well, we could use the plugs.
- 4:53Joe Wolverton: It's interesting that today, some, you know, more than 60 years after we were formed people, especially young people, we have found quite a growth among the uh younger, uh males.
- 5:07Joe Wolverton: They seem to be turning toward uh the constitution and toward uh conservatism more, and we found quite a quite an audience, quite a new audience there, and we're we're enthused by that, encouraged by that and uh.
- 5:22Joe Wolverton: So we've, you know, we've gotten in the habit of really taking advantage of social media, for example, trying to find them where they are and share these things with them, and we've, you know, planted a lot of or I guess you'd say poured a lot of old wine in new bottles, and we're very happy about that.
- 5:41Dr.Robert Jackson: Well, that's what you have to do, because, I'll tell you, most folks don't read a book anymore.
- 5:45Dr.Robert Jackson: They look at social media, and they get their information in small snippets, and so you have to give it to them in those new bottles nowadays.
- 5:53Dr.Robert Jackson: All right, well, let's turn to our subject for the day, which is the Founder's Recipe, and I was intrigued by that title, and I'd love for you to talk to us about that today.
- 6:07Dr.Robert Jackson: So I'm going to turn it over to you and I ask my listeners to give you their kind attention.
- 6:13Joe Wolverton: Thank you, doctor, I appreciate that.
- 6:15Joe Wolverton: Well, yeah, the Founder's Recipe, that's kind of.
- 6:17Joe Wolverton: You know, I've written I don't know five books or so, but the Founder's Recipe is the one that really is my favorite and really the one that I put my heart and soul into.
- 6:27Joe Wolverton: It's basically what it is.
- 6:29Joe Wolverton: I don't know if we've talked about it before, but I was the first person on either side of my family to go to college and you know so I didn't really have a.
- 6:38Joe Wolverton: I wasn't really prepared for what happens when you go to college and I was a good student in high school but I found it all very easy.
- 6:45Joe Wolverton: So, anyway, when I went to college and I found myself a short dog and tall cotton, I asked when I told one of my professors, I told him I said I really appreciate what you're teaching and everything I said, but I just I have to drop out because I'm just not up to the level of these.
- 7:04Joe Wolverton: You have my classmates.
- 7:06Joe Wolverton: They know more than I do and, for example, I told him I said, you know, I've never even heard of the Federalist Papers and my major was political science, with an emphasis on the founding of the republic, and so I was really, you know, at a disadvantage to not know at all even what the Federalist Papers were.
- 7:25Joe Wolverton: And so this professor, dr Dick Vetterly, who was also a member of the John Birch Society I didn't know that then but he told me well, you're not dumb, you're just ignorant.
- 7:38Joe Wolverton: And he's like, we can overcome ignorance if you want to put the work into it.
- 7:43Joe Wolverton: And I told him I did, and so he handed me a copy of the Federalist Papers and he said take the index, and you know this is the years way before the Internet.
- 7:51Joe Wolverton: And he said take the index here and go to the library and look up everything in the index that you don't know what they're talking about.
- 7:58Joe Wolverton: If it's an entry in the index that's unfamiliar to you, write it down and then go find out what that thing is.
- 8:04Joe Wolverton: Go look it up, find out what it is.
- 8:06Joe Wolverton: Long story short, I started to make this list of names that the Founding Fathers in their writings, because once the Federalist Papers, if it mentions somebody, then I go and read about it and then I go and try to find where the Founding Fathers mentioned them.
- 8:23Joe Wolverton: Like I say, back then it wasn't that easy because there was no Internet.
- 8:25Joe Wolverton: I had to go to the section of the library that had, you know, the multi-volume collection of James Madison's writings, or Benjamin Franklin, or Thomas Jefferson.
- 8:33Joe Wolverton: So eventually it was a remarkable thing, and I do believe it was, you know, obviously the Lord leading me to this, that's right.
- 8:41Dr.Robert Jackson: Providential, yes sir, yes sir, you know.
- 8:41Dr.Robert Jackson: Obviously the Lord leading me to this, that's right providential, yes, sir.
- 8:44Joe Wolverton: And so I started to find these names that kept being repeated over and over and over, and I went and took them to my professor.
- 8:51Joe Wolverton: Lo and behold, there were several of these names that he had never even heard of, which was surprising.
- 8:58Joe Wolverton: He called another professor in and I shared with him, and anyway, this became this list of, of these men that were often regularly, repeatedly quoted by the founding fathers, who most people, including professors of American history and and political science, had never heard of these names before.
- 9:21Joe Wolverton: But they were men that were, you know, immeasurably influential on our founding fathers.
- 9:28Joe Wolverton: And so I the reason it's called Founders Recipe, by the way, is when I was little, my nanny would make my mom's mom, my grandma on my mom's side, would make this banana pudding, and my dad could eat a whole you know nine by 12 pan full of it, and we'd go see her.
- 9:48Joe Wolverton: And so one day I asked my dad.
- 9:49Joe Wolverton: I said how come you don't ever eat banana pudding, except when we go to nanny's house?
- 9:54Joe Wolverton: And he's like, cause she makes it better than anybody ever did, and I said, well.
- 10:00Joe Wolverton: I said, well, mom can make it, he's like, your mom's a great cook, he's like, but she can't make it the pudding like your nanny does.
- 10:06Joe Wolverton: And so it came to my mind.
- 10:08Joe Wolverton: I thought well, even when I was little I don't know, I was about eight years old, I guess when this happened I said, well, if mom had the recipe, she could do it.
- 10:16Joe Wolverton: And so when I was putting this together, it came into my head that these men that the Founding Fathers were quoting, they were like the ingredients that went into creating a James Madison or a Thomas Jefferson or a George Washington.
- 10:29Joe Wolverton: And so it's like the problem that we have in America and we've had this problem for over 100 years now is we have been substituting salt for sugar in our cookie recipe and wondering why the cookies taste so bad yes, that's right we don't, we don't have, we wonder why there hasn't been a generation like the founding generation, but we don't do the things they did to educate themselves.
- 10:55Joe Wolverton: and so my whole point was I want to bring these 37 men, I want to bring them to the people again and I want I believe I really do believe, and the proof's been in the pudding is that if we read what they read, then we're liable to do what they did, which is throw off the chains of tyranny and protect our liberty for posterity, as they expected us to do.
- 11:20Joe Wolverton: And so in this book, the Founder's Recipe, you find, so to speak, the 37 ingredients that went into making the education of our founding fathers.
- 11:31Joe Wolverton: Most of these names are completely unknown to even, like I say, to even professors of American history today.
- 11:38Joe Wolverton: And I just go through one, through 37, and I share in the book.
- 11:44Joe Wolverton: I tried to make it.
- 11:46Joe Wolverton: You know, people want something attractive.
- 11:48Joe Wolverton: They're more likely, you know, they say you can't judge a book by its cover.
- 11:52Joe Wolverton: But I found that to be untrue.
- 11:53Joe Wolverton: People like books that look nice.
- 11:56Joe Wolverton: And so I tried to make the book look attractive and it's in, you know, full color and everything, kind of a coffee table book.
- 12:04Joe Wolverton: Look to it and anyway, and share a little biography of each one of the men that were so influential, a list of the books.
- 12:13Joe Wolverton: They wrote, a quotation that the founding fathers repeated from that person, and then I share selection from the writings of that person.
- 12:24Joe Wolverton: And, you know, you come to find out that there were, you know, certain groups that they, you know the Greeks, the ancient Greeks, the ancient Romans, the Bible and the Europeans.
- 12:39Joe Wolverton: Those were the groups that went into making our founding fathers who they are.
- 12:44Joe Wolverton: That's the recipe, and so I just share selections from their writings and I share a little section about where you can find them referred to in the writings of our fathers, our founding fathers.
- 12:55Joe Wolverton: And, yeah, so we go through that.
- 12:58Joe Wolverton: And I'm telling you, Doctor, it's been a miracle in my life, this Founders Recipe.
- 13:03Joe Wolverton: It's one of those things when God deals in a certain way with me.
- 13:08Joe Wolverton: I recognize his hand very quickly because it's as if I can't remember how it all started, you know, like when it became a book, how I you know all of these things just so quickly came together, came a book, how I, you know all of these things just so quickly came together.
- 13:25Joe Wolverton: And instantly when I started to teach this subject.
- 13:27Joe Wolverton: I was asked to teach it in a at a university there in Arizona, and then at a high school as well, and I began teaching the subject and these kids just get fired up.
- 13:38Joe Wolverton: I mean because this because this is stuff that no one, no one today, has read.
- 13:45Joe Wolverton: We're talking and I do the challenge I do it in my classes that I teach on this, and then I give webinars.
- 13:51Joe Wolverton: I'm giving one at the end of, or, I guess, the middle of next month.
- 13:54Joe Wolverton: I'm giving a webinar.
- 13:55Joe Wolverton: I'll share with you the link.
- 13:58Joe Wolverton: I'll send you the link and you can share it with people if you want to it's free a free webinar and uh, anyway, I make the challenge when I teach the founders.
- 14:06Joe Wolverton: I make the challenge and I say take, take these names and see if your local american history professor, if any of them, recognize more than more than you know eight names off that list, I'd be shocked.
- 14:22Joe Wolverton: And if they do recognize it, can they tell you anything?
- 14:26Joe Wolverton: This person said anything, this person wrote?
- 14:29Joe Wolverton: And the answer is going to be no.
- 14:31Joe Wolverton: And you know there's so many examples, doctor.
- 14:34Joe Wolverton: I mean, it just shocks me because when you read these things that these people wrote and that the founding fathers quoted so often and that are so completely unknown to us today, it really does fire you up.
- 14:49Joe Wolverton: It's one of these things that people are like.
- 14:50Joe Wolverton: Why?
- 14:51Joe Wolverton: Because we just passed the anniversary of the Battle of Lexington and Concord, that's right.
- 14:56Joe Wolverton: And people always ask, well, what made them start shooting?
- 15:00Joe Wolverton: People always ask, well, what made them start shooting?
- 15:03Joe Wolverton: Well, when you read the things that they read and realize how important these things were, these things all teach I mean, we're talking ancient Greeks, all the way through the 1750s that these men read they all teach the same thing that your liberty is a gift from God, that you have an obligation to protect that liberty, that, since it is a gift from God, only God can take that from you and he doesn't take that from you.
- 15:32Joe Wolverton: Therefore, any man who tries to take that from you is putting himself above God, and you are under a sacred obligation to have no gods before the real God.
- 15:45Joe Wolverton: Therefore, if a man exalts himself to a position of taking from you what God himself would not take from you, then you must resist that and if necessary, you must resist it with force of arms.
- 16:02Joe Wolverton: The preferred way is to try and convince this person that it shouldn't be done.
- 16:05Joe Wolverton: But when you've tried and tried, as our fathers did for over a decade, tried to convince the government of England that they were doing wrong, well, eventually, when that other side decides that they're going to enforce their will upon you tyrannically, at the point of a gun.
- 16:22Joe Wolverton: Well then, you are as our fathers believed.
- 16:25Joe Wolverton: You have an obligation, a duty as a Christian to manfully resist such efforts to deprive you of your life, your liberty and your property.
- 16:35Joe Wolverton: And so they went forth, that's what you know, those 50, well, it was 49 dairy farmers and one good preacher that stood out there at the pre-dawn hours on April 19, 1775 and faced off against one of the world's mightiest and most professional and well-trained armies.
- 16:55Dr.Robert Jackson: That's right, but they did it, that's exactly right.
- 16:57Joe Wolverton: And this is the thing.
- 16:58Joe Wolverton: When you read this Founder's Recipe and you read these things that the Founding Fathers read, you come to understand that the big problem why we don't have that generation today is because we don't understand liberty the way they understood it to not having a fullness of liberty.
- 17:19Joe Wolverton: And we've not been taught the truth for over 100 years in school that the Constitution is misinterpreted, misrepresented and none of it Since the federal government took control of the management of curriculum of public school.
- 17:38Dr.Robert Jackson: None of us have been taught the truth.
- 17:39Dr.Robert Jackson: There's been a terrible rewriting of history.
- 17:41Joe Wolverton: Oh, absolutely.
- 17:42Joe Wolverton: And none of us have been taught the truth.
- 17:43Joe Wolverton: And when you, I'm telling you it changed my life the moment I first saw a teenager get choked up, reading these things that our fathers read and then getting fired up and saying why aren't we doing anything?
- 17:59Joe Wolverton: I mean, you had these kids, honestly doctor, the first time they.
- 18:02Joe Wolverton: They came to me at the end of the school year and asked if we could continue class through the summer.
- 18:09Joe Wolverton: Oh, my goodness, and I mean I'd never done that in school, I boy.
- 18:13Joe Wolverton: I couldn't wait for summer to start, and so these kids would come by, come to my house every week and we'd still have the class.
- 18:21Dr.Robert Jackson: Oh, my goodness, and we would keep reading these things.
- 18:23Dr.Robert Jackson: You've got to be kidding me.
- 18:25Joe Wolverton: I'm not kidding you at all.
- 18:27Joe Wolverton: They came dutifully every week During the summer we continued having class.
- 18:32Joe Wolverton: And to the point where Liberty Fund is a publisher, a book publisher that publishes the books of a lot of these guys and just a small operation in indiana, and to the point where these kids were buying these books so much.
- 18:48Joe Wolverton: These guys were like we want a liberty phone, like you know, we want to show gratitude to you.
- 18:53Joe Wolverton: They sent me a copy of all the books they published for free how about that?
- 19:16Joe Wolverton: And help move the needle back toward individual liberty and away from authoritarianism.
- 19:25Joe Wolverton: It's reading the words that our founders read, because you just don't understand it, because we've never been taught it and doctored.
- 19:33Joe Wolverton: There's not been ever a single person, I've never encountered a single person that reads these things and doesn't have their mind just blown by the fact that you instantly understand why the government and the deep state, so to speak, why they have kept us from reading these things for so many years now.
- 19:55Joe Wolverton: Because, if you can, you imagine if you've got a seven-year-old like we've got you know now.
- 20:00Joe Wolverton: All our founding fathers were homeschooled until they got you know up age close enough to go to, if they were going to go to college, which most of them didn't.
- 20:08Joe Wolverton: But if you went to college, you know if you're going to be a lawyer, a doctor or a preacher.
- 20:13Joe Wolverton: You went to college.
- 20:15Joe Wolverton: And so at that age 16, you know around there, 15, if their parents had means they would provide a tutor to prepare them to go to college.
- 20:25Joe Wolverton: But for the most part they were homeschooled.
- 20:27Joe Wolverton: And you've got Thomas Jefferson and we're fortunate to have the journals and they called them commonplace books of most of our founding fathers, most of our founding fathers.
- 20:43Joe Wolverton: And you notice that at eight, nine years old, they're reading the history of Rome, the history of Greece, the Bible.
- 20:48Joe Wolverton: Every one of them testify about how, every night, their father would bring all the kids together and every night, religiously, literally religiously, would read an hour from the Bible to his family.
- 21:04Joe Wolverton: And that makes a difference when you're, from cradle to grave, being taught these things.
- 21:11Joe Wolverton: They stick with you.
- 21:12Dr.Robert Jackson: That's right.
- 21:12Dr.Robert Jackson: Let me tell you a story.
- 21:13Dr.Robert Jackson: I teach third graders in Sunday school, okay, and my third graders most of them cannot read yet right and I and I have them read from the bible on sunday mornings, and a good two-thirds of my class cannot read the bible.
- 21:33Dr.Robert Jackson: They just can't.
- 21:35Dr.Robert Jackson: They're not capable yet, and well you see, and it's it's the vast difference now from then.
- 21:42Joe Wolverton: Oh yeah, but I'll tell you what they do.
- 21:46Dr.Robert Jackson: When I ask them what they do with their time, they play video games.
- 21:49Dr.Robert Jackson: They all play video games endlessly.
- 21:52Dr.Robert Jackson: Oh, that's so neat and I challenge them to read the Bible and they look at me like I can't do that.
- 21:58Dr.Robert Jackson: That it's like physically I'm not capable to do that.
- 22:03Joe Wolverton: Once.
- 22:03Joe Wolverton: It's that Isaiah that says I cannot read a sealed book, you know, and the book is sealed because of ignorance and that's just a shame and it's really my testimony that that's going to come down on the head of parents who have failed to educate and prepare their children the way they ought to.
- 22:20Joe Wolverton: But the thing is, when you read these things and you've got a, you know the journals of a, a nine-year-old, james madison, who's making notes in latin, you know.
- 22:32Joe Wolverton: And so we've got nine-year-olds, like you say, who can't read.
- 22:35Joe Wolverton: And our founding fathers were reading the history of rome in latin at nine years old.
- 22:39Joe Wolverton: Yes, and you've got, uh, thomas jefferson.
- 22:42Joe Wolverton: I love one of his diaries that we have.
- 22:45Joe Wolverton: He was 14 years old and he writes that it's time for him to quit being a boy and become a man and to put away childish things and to quit playing cards and quit going to games with his friends and to settle down and do what God has for him to do.
- 23:02Joe Wolverton: He said I feel like God has an important work for me to do and it's time to grow up.
- 23:06Joe Wolverton: He was 14.
- 23:07Joe Wolverton: Yes, you know, today we have 40-year-olds who buy video games and sit around all night playing video games.
- 23:13Dr.Robert Jackson: I got patients.
- 23:14Dr.Robert Jackson: That's all they do with their life and they're adults.
- 23:16Dr.Robert Jackson: They're adult men, right.
- 23:17Joe Wolverton: And they play video games.
- 23:18Joe Wolverton: Their wives come in disgusted with their husbands, do nothing but play video games all the time.
- 23:27Joe Wolverton: Yep, it's a shame, but I'm telling you this, people, and you know I I'm fixing to come out.
- 23:31Joe Wolverton: You know I say fixing to.
- 23:32Joe Wolverton: It's going to be a little while, it'll be several months you know that's a true southernism when you say fixing to oh well, that's who I am.
- 23:41Joe Wolverton: I can.
- 23:41Joe Wolverton: I can't get away from that.
- 23:45Joe Wolverton: I don't want to get away from it.
- 23:46Joe Wolverton: Yeah, I guess in about six months we're going to come out with the second edition of the Founder's Recipe, which is's in full color and it's it's, you know.
- 23:56Joe Wolverton: Uh, I don't know how I pay.
- 24:06Joe Wolverton: I think it's something like you know, 200 pages, 300 pages, and so we're gonna make it a little smaller.
- 24:11Joe Wolverton: Just do like the top 10 influences.
- 24:13Joe Wolverton: Make it in, uh, you know, smaller, make it more affordable, because I want to get it into the hands of everybody and right now it's printed through amazon, so you, they take their cut and and, uh, you know.
- 24:27Joe Wolverton: so this webinar that's coming up and I'll send you the information.
- 24:30Joe Wolverton: That's really important because at the webinar they will.
- 24:33Joe Wolverton: If you attend the webinar, you get a huge discount on getting the book, and so that's a big deal and and uh, and this webinar is free.
- 24:44Dr.Robert Jackson: All right?
- 24:44Dr.Robert Jackson: Well, let's listen, we run out time tell tell my patients, tell my, my patients, I'm sorry.
- 24:48Dr.Robert Jackson: Tell my listeners first of all, how they can get a hold of the book and then, second, how they can attend the webinar okay.
- 24:55Joe Wolverton: So, uh, if you go to, um, if you want to get the book, you can go to amazon and just put in my name, joe wolverton.
- 25:03Joe Wolverton: Uh, and one of the books there is the founder's recipe.
- 25:07Joe Wolverton: I will warn you, don't get the kindle version.
- 25:10Joe Wolverton: They've messed up somehow in the kindle version, so, uh, get the paperback version.
- 25:15Joe Wolverton: Um, so, and it, it goes on sale pretty regularly through amazon because as long as it breaks through the top 200 or whatever they'll, they'll put a discount on it.
- 25:25Joe Wolverton: So it stays pretty regularly up there and pretty good discount through Amazon, because as long as it breaks through the top 200 or whatever, they'll put a discount on it.
- 25:32Joe Wolverton: So it stays pretty regularly up there and pretty good discount.
