Ep. 90: Against Intellectual Property, with Stephan Kinsella Feb 03, 2020

Show notes

Today we will discuss all things Intellectual Property. Of course, to do that, I have Stephan Kinsella on the show, who is the foremost expert on this topic. What is "property"? Are all rights essentially "property rights"? Can you own an idea if ideas aren't finite? What is covered under the umbrella of intellectual property? How should a libertarian view intellectual property? All of this and more on episode 90! Enjoy!

Ep. 89: Michael Boldin on Nullification, Gun Rights, & Sanctuary Cities Jan 27, 2020

Show notes

My guest today is the founder and executive director of the Tenth Amendment Center, Michael Boldin. Michael and I discuss the gun rights movement, not only in Virginia, but throughout the country. We get into the "sanctuary cities" for gun rights advocates and what exactly that helps accomplish. The Tenth Amendment Center is a terrific resource to learn about nullification movements throughout the country. Michael is very knowledgeable on so many issues and such a great radical. I love his passion and all his great work. You'll enjoy our conversation.

Ep. 87: Is it Time for America to Break Up? with F.H. Buckley Jan 13, 2020

Show notes

My guest this week is F.H. Buckley, author of the new book "American Secession: The Looming Threat of a National Breakup". We discuss his book and get into many of the angles of the idea of secession here in the United States. With one person ruling over an extremely divided 350 million people, secession may be the most logical and peaceful way forward. Why not let California be California and go their own way? Same with Texas. Same with many other states. We chat about nullification, local control, and other options other than secession as well. Hope y'all enjoy this one!

Ep. 85: John Baeza on Being a Libertarian Cop and Ron Paul's Bodyguard Dec 30, 2019

Show notes

My guest this week is John Baeza, and we discuss the three years he attempted to be a "libertarian cop". John is a retired member of the NYPD, where he was a detective who was assigned to the Manhattan Special Victims Squad. There he investigated and reviewed approximately 1,000 cases of rape, serial rape, sexual homicide, felony sexual assault, and child abuse cases. During his tenure there, he started realizing the pain and suffering caused by the war on drugs. He was reading libertarian books, and after that, there was no turning back for him. John became a libertarian. After his career with NYPD was over with, he became a Deputy down in Florida where he made a promise to himself: from that point on, he would be a libertarian cop. In this episode we talk about how that went for him and how it ended. John was also the head of security for the Ron Paul campaign! I, of course, had to ask him all about that as well.

You can the article we discuss here.

Ep. 82: Philip Giraldi on the Deep State and Trump Dec 09, 2019

Show notes

My guest today is Philip Girladi, and we discuss all things "Deep State". We now know that former CIA Director, John Brennan, formed a "CIA Trump Task Force" with several other nefarious deep state figures in order to tie Donald Trump to Vladimir Putin. This turned out to be fruitless, yet a lot of damage was still done. Why did these deep state figures want to derail Trump's presidential aspirations? Why are they always on the side of more war and more foreign intervention? My guest today knows those answers and more, as he is an ex-CIA officer and comes at this with a wealth of information.
