About this listen

 ULTRAFREE is a podcast hosted by Emmy-winning actress Drea de Matteo. Drawing on the same intensity that defined her work in The Sopranos and Sons of Anarchy, Drea invites listeners into searching, unscripted conversations with artists, dissidents, whistleblowers, and independent thinkers. Each episode examines power, culture, and the narratives we inherit, questioning who benefits, who is silenced, and what is deliberately left unseen. This is a space for curiosity over conformity, unity over division, and inquiry over performance. The conversations are intimate, deliberate, and unafraid to move where others hesitate. If you are weary of being instructed rather than invited to think, welcome.

    KEEP FIGHTING: IF ICAN, WE ALL CAN. Del Bigtree - A liberal heart opens up and lets down his HAIR.
    Apr 28 2026
    Have we given up on Eden? Have our ideas and fantasies of “Utopia” been littered with authoritarian laws about everything including litter? Is there such a thing as a benevolent dictator? In this powerfully honest, positive and community-minded conversation, Drea speaks with The Highwire’s, Del Bigtree about musical theater, medical freedom, environmentalism, politics, and more. At the core of everything we are living through right now is Civil Rights and Free Speech. In other words…FREEDOM. Exactly the reason why Drea started the ULTRAFREE PODCAST — and exactly what we are watching slip through our fingers. Meet Del Bigtree: Del Bigtree is one of the preeminent voices of the MAHA Movement. He was the Director of Communications for Robert Kennedy Jr’s 2024 presidential campaign, the founder and CEO of the non-profit, Informed Consent Action Network (ICAN), and host of the internet talk show TheHighWire.com, boasting over 400 million views world-wide. A former Emmy winning producer of the CBS talk show The Doctors, and most recently Executive Producer of the film, An Inconvenient Study. Del’s multi-pronged approach incorporates media, legislative, and legal actions to expose the fraud, lies, and conflicts of interest that have allowed US regulatory agencies to collude with industry power brokers to evade standardized safety testing on products including vaccines, drugs, food, drinking water, and 5G. On behalf of American citizens, Del’s non-profit, ICAN, has submitted over one thousand Freedom Of Information Requests (FOIA) and has won multiple lawsuits against government agencies including HHS, NIH, FDA and the CDC. Most notable are the FDA case that forced the release of Pfizer’s Covid Vaccine trial data which the FDA had attempted to hide for 75 years, the CDC case that forced the release of the CDC’s V-Safe Covid Vaccine Injury data, and the State of Mississippi Case which reinstated the Religious Exemption from Vaccination which had been denied for over 30 years. The message of this heart-to-heart? Find your center and remember where you came from. A “left-leaning-liberal” doesn’t suddenly become a “conservative white nationalist” for NOT wanting to take a Covid injection. This is a ridiculous conflation of medical freedom and politics. These two issues have no place in the same discussion. Please stop demonizing people who think and live differently than you might. Our humble suggestion? ”Humans Unite! There are a profusion of very sad, angry & controversial things going on in our world these days - but there’s also an abundance of sweet, sacred, righteous and right-on “happenings” cropping up like bitter-sweet dandelions on your cranky neighbor’s front lawn. There’s REAL healing in the weeds, my friends. How you do anything is how you do EVERYTHING. And Everything is NOW. Recognize and acknowledge the beauty. The warriors. The positive change agents — Embrace the good while asking important questions. Expose lies and DO NOT CONSENT OR COMPLY to the destruction of your bodily autonomy. America is on the brink of destroying it’s core tennent of our constitutional remedy for what ails us — The unfettered & inalienable pursuit of Life, Liberty & Happiness. Thanks Del, keep fighting the Good Fight! For those of us about to ROCK, we salute you!

  • GET SMARTER: CHAOS & CONTROL WITH COLONEL TOWNER

    GET SMARTER: CHAOS & CONTROL WITH COLONEL TOWNER
    Apr 21 2026
    Governments all over the world have never allowed a good crisis to go to waste. Think “Shock Doctrine,” that best selling book by Naomi Klein. Intentional chaos created in order to implement control mechanisms on an unsuspecting population. Coercion through FEAR (Forgetting Everything’s All Right), violence and mass manipulation is the tactical “strategy of tension” that allows the few to govern the many. I give you Operation Gladio. Staged chaotic events (chaos agents embedded to incite & foment panic, stress and strain) designed to unstabilize populations and governments. Imagine cells of 12-20 people with dedicated cachés of weapons, money & communication equipment scattered all over the world. Upon activation, these stay behind units would jump to attention, create chaos, overthrow regimes and basically “f*ck shit up,” blaming it on another faction in order to start a war, affect regime change and other assorted nefarious, covert, para-military activities from the depths of hell. Started by the Nazis, when they realized that they were going to “lose the war,” with the cooperation of all our allies - Operation Sunrise - were the seeds that got all this underway. We were told that these stay behinds were left there to engage with the Soviet Union to combat Communism — however - they were 100% used to commit acts of domestic terrorism. Did I happen to mention that this secret “army” was managed by NATO? Now that I have your attention, please welcome Retired Colonel Roxanne Towner Watkins to the ULTRAFREE PODCAST. Retired USAF Colonel Exposing OPERATION GLADIO & the INTERNATIONAL SYNDICATE to the WORLD. Described online by Key Wiki as "an anti-West, pro-Russia propagandist,” you know this is our kind of guest! LOL!! So, Get ready to “relearn” history and have your mind blown. A 30-year Air Force veteran, devout student of history and generous font of knowledge, Colonel Towner will school you on events and topics you didn’t even know that you needed & wanted to know. Her ability to convey historical facts via timelines, as well as her experience and insight into military operations is worth the price of admission times 10,000. If you are struggling with certain decisions that are being made by the current President and his administration, you have come to the right podcast to weigh up facts vs. fiction. Colonel towner takes on and explains USAID, Narco-Trafficking with Venezuela, Voter Fraud and more. At the heart of it all? The CIA. Are we at war with the intelligence apparatus? YES! Enjoy this illuminating and free-thinking exploration with Retired Colonel Towner-Watkins & Drea. It’s an amazing conversation that wanders in and out of dense political & military history and strategy, along with a shared love of Italian culture, and peppered with intuitive and authentic female friendship, forged before our very eyes. A three hour tour of duty that is a Thing of Beauty! Dig. I’ve watched it 4 times and I’m going back for FIVE!

  • QAnon Q&A: ‘Mike King’s Secret Plan to Save Humanity

    QAnon Q&A: ‘Mike King’s Secret Plan to Save Humanity
    Apr 14 2026
    When Drea started the Ultrafree Podcast, a YUGE part of the Ultrafree mission was to help end the division and “othering” of those who were questioning mainstream media narratives, “unpopular” & controversial political figures, and openly discussing what were derogatorily being called “conspiracy theories.” Her desire to open up a forum of TRUE FREE SPEECH during an incredibly confusing time of covid lock-downs, fear, anger and the mandating of experimental medical interventions (gene therapies masquerading as “v@xxines” for the “greater good”) has led us HERE. The Ultrafree Podcast. We sincerely hope that you are enjoying all of the episodes presented so far and invite you to lean into this next thought provoking interview with Real News & History’s Mike King. Now that ALL of the conspiracy theories have turned out to be conspiracy facts, we can step inside the cone of silence and dare peek behind the curtain. According to Mike S. King, Drea’s esteemed guest (recorded on 2/5/26), everything we are seeing right now is a movie. Scripted. Theater. Take for instance, Epstein. The point of exposing Epstein (all the while making people think that Trump is covering it up to save his “friends”), lies in the demand for full disclosure - which will illuminate a two-hundreds-year-old nefarious plan, show the world the ugly truth and “crash the sick, diseased, rotten temple down.” The strategy calls on the “white hats” in the military to create tension & suspicion in order to reverse brainwashing, reprogramming the mind-controlled masses to open their eyes and see beyond their human field of perception. Welcome to the Q-Tard Ball! “The Secret Plan to Save Humanity” by Mike S. King revolves around a provocative theory of a covert strategy managed by a dominant group referred to as "The Global Power Hierarchy." King details what he claims is a clandestine, long-standing plan by this group to undermine Western civilization and establish global dominance through tactics like inciting societal divisions and exploiting crises. The author also delves into the purported "Q Operation," a counterplot led by Donald Trump and supposed allies within the military intelligence sector. King contends this covert effort aims to expose and dismantle the secretive global elite through tactics like cryptic messaging and strategic appointments. The book unveils alleged schemes on both sides of this clandestine struggle. - short form.com (http://form.com/) Buckle up, y’all. Drea dives into one of the most controversial narrative busting “narratives” of all time….Q. That’s right. Q. No Shaman, sorry. It’s a full-on Military Operation filled with benevolent armies of wrong-doing “righters” who are looking to UNITE & MAKE RIGHT THE ILLS OF THE WORLD! Sounds great, huh? I sure hope this movie ends well. We really do need some GOOD NEWS these days - as well as some hope & humanity to hold onto. “Real News & History” coming atcha Right Now. Mike King Bio: Mike King is a private investigative journalist and researcher based in the New York City metro area of New Jersey. A 1987 graduate of Rutgers University, King's subsequent career in Marketing & Advertising equipped him with a unique perspective when it comes to understanding how "public opinion" is indeed scientifically manufactured. Marketing acumen combines with 'City Boy' instincts to make King one of the most tenacious detectors of "things that don’t add up" in the world today. Says King of his admitted quirks, irreverent disdain for "conventional wisdom", and uncanny ability to ferret out and weave together important data points that others miss: "Had Sherlock Holmes been an actual historical personage, I would have been his reincarnation."
