It's been awhile, but we're back! In this episode, we'll talk about the boom-bust cycle. What causes the boom? What's actually happening during the bust? What do prices have to do with any of this?

Do Short-Sellers Have a Place in the Free Market?

February 12, 2021 08:01 - 44 minutes - 60.8 MB

A few weeks ago, the financial world was thrown into a bit of chaos as a group of trolls from Reddit pulled off one of the great short squeezes of our time. You've heard this explained dozens of times by now. But what was left out of the stories you've heard? And what does that have to do with the big picture? We'll look at the Gamestop situation from a free markets perspective and help you understand the economics of the stock market on a much deeper level than any of your Facebook frie...

You couldn't turn on the news or scroll through your timeline this week without seeing the corporate media fawning over the inauguration ceremony of new President Joe Biden. But what's so special about the Inauguration Ceremony anyway? We'll dive into the psychological factors of the ceremony that are designed to draw you in and make you more compliant, whether you voted for this regime or not. Next up: You've heard of The Great Reset. But is it reality? Conspiracy? Or just wishful thi...

Conspiracy Theories, The 25th Amendment, and The Great Tech Purge

January 13, 2021 08:01 - 53 minutes - 73.3 MB

It's been a busy week! Conservatives have been scouring the internet trying to determine if last week's capital protestors were just bad actors from Antifa. The Democrats are preparing articles of impeachment and calling for Mike Pence to invoke the 25th Amendment to remove Donald Trump from the Oval Office. And tech companies everywhere are dumping the president, leaving his supporters searching for a place to call their digital home. We'll explain the lure of conspiracy theories, the a...

Storming the Capital: Aggression or Activism?

January 08, 2021 08:01 - 25 minutes - 35 MB

The Democrats may have stolen the election, but the MAGA crowd stole the headlines this week when a group of protesters barged into the Capital Building in Washington and demanded that congressmen throw out the electoral votes for President-Elect Joe Biden. Your Democrat friends said it was domestic terrorism. Your Republican friends said it was patriotic. Your libertarian friends couldn't say anything because their mouths were too full of popcorn. But what should we really think of th...

Who ya gonna call? Trustbusters!

December 11, 2020 18:32 - 32 minutes - 44.5 MB

We got news this week that Facebook is getting hit with yet another anti-trust lawsuit. This time, it comes from 48 state attorneys saying that the company has a monopoly on social media. I recorded this episode back in October, shortly after a Democratic House committee filed similar action against Facebook, Amazon, Google, and Apple. The circumstances may have changed slightly, but the principles remain the same. What does this mean for those companies? What does this mean for the co...

November 20, 2020 08:01 - 47 minutes - 65.5 MB

It's 3 weeks past Election Day and we're still not sure who will be President in 2020. Joe Biden has declared victory. Donald Trump has declared fraud. What do we make of all this? Who can we really believe? We'll discuss the accusations of fraud and ask if Donald Trump still has a path to victory. And who takes the comfy chair in the Oval Office if Joe Biden wins?

Why I Kissed Voting Goodbye

November 01, 2020 08:01 - 40 minutes - 55.4 MB

Welcome to the OFFICIAL election episode of 2020. We'll kick off with a few listener questions: Why do Republicans try to keep so many people from voting?

And most importantly, we'll discuss the effects voting has on YOU. How does voting change the way you look at other people? How does it affect the way you look at that candidate who ...

Should You Be Worried About the Vaccine?

October 26, 2020 07:01 - 14 minutes - 20.4 MB

As the pandemic hysteria continues, President Trump has insisted that officials are quickly developing a vaccine to stop the virus. But these statements seem to be causing more concern than relief. Can a vaccine really be safe if it hasn't passed standard FDA trials? Would your doctor give you a vaccine that isn't safe? Could this vaccine be used for a more sinister purpose? This is a short episode, but we'll answer all these questions here! https://www.nbcnews.com/health/health-news/s...

Judging Amy Coney Barrett

October 02, 2020 07:01 - 36 minutes - 49.8 MB

The newest drama in Washington surrounds the vacant Supreme Court seat of Ruth Bader Ginsburg. After refusing to give President Obama's SC nominee a hearing in 2016, the Republican-led Senate is moving forward with President Trump's nominee. Is this hypocrisy, opportunity, or a little bit of both? And can the Democrats do anything to stop them? We'll talk about nominee Amy Coney Barrett and her views, and why she might not be the savior many pro-life voters are hoping for. And finally, ...

Context Matters in Kenosha

August 28, 2020 07:01 - 24 minutes - 33.5 MB

Another controversial police shooting in Wisconsin has led to more violent protests this week. This time, shots were fired and two people have died. We'll discuss both the police shooting of Jacob Blake, and the armed 17-year-old who shot 3 protestors in an altercation afterward. It's one thing to watch a short video clip and make a judgment call as to who was right and who was wrong. But we'll add greater context to both incidents and discuss what should really be helping us examine every...

The Persuasion of Antifa (and BLM, and "Defund the Police")

July 27, 2020 07:01 - 29 minutes - 40.7 MB

We asked you to send in questions for an AMA episode, and you did not disappoint. In fact, these two questions were so good, they got their own episode: #1.

We'll discuss the persuasion techniques behind each of these discussions, and you might just learn something about how to get powerful people to take up YOUR causes. If your question wasn't answere...

Racism, Police, and the Media's Helter Skelter

June 12, 2020 07:01 - 1 hour - 86.3 MB

After the video of George Floyd's death went viral, discussions of racism and police brutality have taken hold of our country over the past few weeks. Protests have turned violent. Property has been destroyed. And the police response has been as aggressive as ever. But what are we supposed to make of all this? Does systemic racism really exist? If the police do go too far, why don't they face consequences? Why are people rioting, and is this a reasonable response? And finally, what's t...
