Growing up in the late ’70s and ’80s, Jaytriot found punk rock—and with it, the mindset of questioning authority and rejecting official narratives. While studying biology at UC Irvine, he pushed back against the “tolerant” left that had taken over the university system, proudly embracing his conservative views in a sea of liberals.
After chiropractic school, he became politically active during the Obamacare fight, joining his local Tea Party and lobbying his congressman—unfortunately, Adam Schiff—to vote against it.
In 2018, a lecture by Jordan Sather introduced him to the Q operation. He soon followed decoders like Sather and Brad Zerbo, and after the 2020 election, the Devolution series deepened his understanding. At Threadfest and later GART events, he connected with the movement, eventually joining Jon Herold as cohost of Liberty Den.
Jaytriot brings the perspective of living in a deep-blue community, serving as a bridge between the Badlands audience and its personalities—all while keeping humor in the mix. A lifelong music lover, he also cohosts The Audio Files with Brad Zerbo.
