Excellent
Great overview of liberalism! You were able to avoid using too much jargon and made this very clear for ordinary mortals. I really found this optimistic - I know that sounds strange - but it made me very happy. The descriptions of the American Revolution were great too. I assume the podcaster is European from his accent (maybe wrong there) - someone from outside a country has a perspective that someone from inside it doesn’t have… for ex., an American like me. Thank you!
Love this
Thank you for the History of Liberalism. Love your comfortable vocal style. I hope for 1 more podcast where you comment on Stephen R.C. Hicks new book, “Liberalism Pro & Con”.
Great Overview, Pleasing Voice!
Just as my title says, the podcaster’s voice is pleasing to the ear... it’s something about the delivery...
Also, the overview of liberalism is very thoughtful, often funny, and always interesting.
