Meet Robert Brooks: “The Farmer Servant” Running for Governor | The Controlled Burn

In this episode of Controlled Burn, Shane and Brandon sit down with Oklahoma gubernatorial candidate Robert Brooks, the self-described “Farmer Servant,” to unpack one of the boldest campaign ideas we’ve heard in a minute: The People’s App. Brooks says his job as governor would be simple: put major decisions on an app and let registered voters decide whether he signs, vetoes, pardons, or grants clemency. From cannabis policy to government transparency, yes, he wants cameras everywhere, we dig into what “for the people” actually looks like when someone tries to build it into the system itself. We talk about the origin of the Farmer Servant book series, why he believes cannabis is a settled issue because the people already voted, how the political machine protects itself, and why he chose to run as an independent. The conversation also dives into transparency, conspiracy culture, criminal justice reform, education, and whether technology could realistically close the gap between voters and elected officials. Would you trust an app to shape state policy, or does that sound like democracy with push notifications?
