You’ll shoot your eye out, kid!  We welcome Greg, known as @NotGregoryM on Twitter, on the podcast to talk guns.  I don’t think we’ve ever had a guest come on the show to talk about guns, so we’ll call him our resident gun expert.  He’s a wealth of knowledge and an all-around good guy.  Maybe […]

What’s it like serving in the military in Afghanistan as you begin to question the war?  We’ve all heard the dramatic stories about soldiers turned antiwar activities, but what was it like for the average Marine?  Jared, known as @JTTRisky0861 on Twitter, is a former Marine who became antiwar and found his way to libertarianism […]

Peter Schiff is well known in libertarian and Austrian economics circles for his outspoken support of free markets and critiques of government interference.  He’s also known in Bitcoin circles, but that’s because he’s a vocal critic of Bitcoin and its competition with gold.  After a couple of tweets going after Bitcoin and its comparisons to […]

There’s an awful lot of noise in the Bitcoin space due to people trying to promote their altcoins.  The most contentious debates and arguments happen in the Bitcoin vs Bitcoin Cash communities and the latest installment has featured people calling on Twitter to do something about the @Bitcoin handle.  People supportive of Bitcoin Cash control […]

We took an opportunity this episode to talk about some current events happening now.  First up is the fire at the Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris and how many libertarians reacted with conspiracy theories and a total lack of empathy.  Unfortunately, this is nothing new. Then changing gears, we discussed the delisting of an obvious […]

We’ve finally made it happen!  We welcome our friends, Will and Jared, from the Peaceful Treason podcast to talk some shop this week.  There was a tweetstorm by a U.C. Berkeley author and lawyer that she titled “Libertarians: Destroyers of Democracy” that was just too ridiculous that there was no way we weren’t going to […]

Vallejo police have released the video of the slaying of rapper Willie McCoy at a Taco Bell.  A Taco Bell employee called 911 to report an unresponsive person sitting in a car.  When Vallejo police arrived, they found McCoy as described, but they noticed a gun in his lap.  They drew their guns and discussed […]

Conspiracies exist and there’s plenty of odd accounts of events, but that doesn’t give someone license immediately go off the rails and make wild accusations of conspiracies while having almost no facts.  It’s not a good look for us as libertarians.  Bad people exist and they do some pretty awful things sometimes even without the […]

We’ve talked about how to deal with crime on past podcast episodes, but how should a libertarian society deal with an active aggressor?  The recent “egging” of Australian senator Fraser Anning by a 15-year-old provides us with an opportunity to dig into this with a recent event. We’ve also discussed how a libertarian society would […]

Democrat Presidential Candidate Andrew Yang is taking some flak for his thoughts on gun control.  And he should because his thoughts are pretty bad, but that means he’s pretty popular among the typical bad idea machines.  Slappy and I take this opportunity to talk through how we think a libertarian society would handle risky people […]

Slappy and I came across an opinion piece where a local nanny was complaining about working conditions for domestic workers like cleaners and nannies.  She was suggesting that a “bill of rights” is required to be placed into law by the city of Philadelphia to alleviate these issues.  We read through the article and discuss […]

Slappy and I welcome Prof. CJ of the Dangerous History Podcast to talk about his show and the recent epic 28-hour long series he did on his podcast, “The Not-So-Civil War.”  We start with some general conversation about Prof. CJ and education, but then we dig into some questions we had about the Civil War. […]

There were some audio issues during post-production.  We got them to reasonable levels but Rollo’s voice is a little louder than Slappy’s and a bit less crisp. Well, not all of you are socialists.  But it’s interesting to notice how many on the right decry the left’s socialism only to succumb to its temptations as […]

We welcome Guy Swann from The Cryptoconomy podcast to talk about Bitcoin’s Lightning Network, Guy carrying the Lightning Torch, and bringing Bitcoin to the world.

Slappy and I have CarCampIt of the Friends Against Government podcast on the show to talk about some of the current goings on in the world.  We talk a bit about Super Bowl commercials, abortion, and PETA’s Twitter account. Follow CarCampIt Twitter: @CarCampIt Friends Against Government Podcast Sponsor Liberty Mugs Keep in touch with us […]

We take libertarianism all the way to its logical conclusion.  That means we don’t want the state to exist for anything.  This includes ways to handle criminals.  Libertarianism answers the question of what constitutes a crime very well, but it’s not quite obvious what to do once we think we know who the criminal is. […]

I’m sure you’ve heard about it already, but there was an incident in Washington, D.C. at the March for Life.  It sets up like a joke, but what do you get when you take groups of Native Americans, Black Hebrew Israelites, and students from an all-boys Catholic High School?  Utter social media mayhem.  We discuss […]

This episode contains some language, so listener discretion is advised. We had the privilege of bringing everyone’s favorite truck driver, Quincy Johnson, on the show to talk about how to deal with racists and then chat a bit about politics. Follow Quincy Twitter: @QuincyLovesBBWS Sponsor Liberty Mugs Keep in touch with us everywhere you are […]

Bitcoin just turned 10 years old, so what’s better to talk about than Bitcoin to start the new year?  We brought on Colin, known as Heavily Armed Clown on Twitter, to discuss how he got into Bitcoin, the economics behind it, adoption, the bear market, and more! Items discussed Mathbot.com JW Weatherman’s Course Buy a […]

Stefan Molyneux is known for bringing a lot of people into libertarianism and anarcho-capitalism.  But over the last few years, he’s been saying some pretty odd to flat our ridiculous things that should make someone start to question him.  What went wrong?  Slappy and I discuss. Items discussed Stefan Molyneux Thinks Voting Is the Solution […]

Bitcoin’s all time high was a year ago today.  We’re in a bear market, so there’s been plenty of FUD being spread around by the no-coiners.  We discuss some the recent Bitcoin bomb threat, criticisms, and some critiques on altcoins. Items discussedDon’t Buy Bitcoin.  It’s Going to Crash!!!Episode 106 – CNBC’s take on Bitcoin and […]

The extreme leftists and social justice warriors keep getting crazier and crazier with no real end in sight.  The latest victim of their silly whininess is Heisman Trophy winner Kyler Murray, who was “discovered”to have tweeted out an “anti-gay slur” when he was 15 years old.  Fortunately, the vast majority of people seem to think […]
