When You Can Spot Bullshit,
You Change Everything.

Radically honest. Brutally transparent. Infused with humor, metaphor, and satire — books that question conventional wisdom and arm you against fear, anger, hate, and division.

Why We Exist

"BullShit propagators lose their grip on people when individuals are educated, well-studied, surrounded by diversity, and experience different cultures."

Let's work together to stop the proliferation of fear, anger, hate, and division — through story telling that questions everything.

Bring Your Own is BullShit

IBS Publications isn't a vanity press for one voice — it's an open imprint. We sign outside authors ready to write their own volume under the is BullShit trademark, or existing publications with a bullshit motif: practitioners with raw, lived experience in healthcare, technology, corporate leadership, personal finance, or wherever conventional wisdom has quietly rotted.

Every signed author moves through our onboarding pipeline — source material audit, core narrative definition, structural refinement, and a radical candor review before release. We edit hard, we ship fast, and we expect you to risk your own comfort in service of the truth: real names, real metrics, real consequences, not safe composites.
