Billy Binion?! No. Just no. It was shocking to hear Nick interview him. I thought it was a joke at first. And Billy works for reason?! He may be bright, but he is unsuitable for broadcast. Terrible voice, poor presentation and a limited ability to articulate his thoughts. I expect more than a ditzy gay stereotype from Reason. Otherwise a great podcast.

Really great episode! Great questions, really insightful answers to legal cases and history, plus spooner and rothbard get substantial shout outs. Will buy his book!

He is extremely biased. Shocked that he can be so blind to the media’s bias
