    What is the future of Libertarianism in a Populist World?

    We start out the show with a couple of personal announcements about my family and career, and then Harry Price, Rhinehold and I deal with the fact that it's hard to be a principled libertarian. First, there are some good things the government does at a local level. Secondly, the libertarian ideology is barely popular with libertarians. So I ask them, "what's the point?" Harry gives me a good answer.  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

    Trump Storms Back To Power With Big Majorities

    It is finally over! Donald Trump won the presidency in one of the greatest political comebacks in American history. Why did Trump win, and why did Kamala Harris lose? We look at 2024's fear-based political messaging from both sides and the mental health crisis it caused, the economic frustrations across America, and the disillusionment of younger generations. We also look at the Libertarian Party's fifth-place finish and why, and we touch on the role of local community engagement in political change.  This episode is brought to you by Trijent's new Universal Mech-loader - https://trijent.com/spangle Trijent, a pioneering small business, proudly introduces the Universal Mech-loader.

    The Fundamental Choice of the 2024 Election

    Every election is billed as the most important election of our lifetime. Choosing Kamala Harris or Donald Trump will not end America, but it does present two fundamentally different paths of political ideology for voters.
