Show Notes
Leighton is on summer break, so we are highlighting some of his favourite guests from 2025.
James Bovard is a Libertarian Journalist and Author. Thirteen books published. In his first ’The Farm Fiasco’ (1989) he referenced NZ as a world leader in farming.
In 1994 came ‘Lost Rights; The Destruction of American Liberty’ We interviewed in April 2021 re Covid.
Now thirty years after Lost Rights, comes ‘Last Rights; The Death of American Liberty”.
We arranged the interview moments before the 1st Presidential Debate.
Between the book and the political crisis in the U.S. there was never a dull moment.
And he’s quite amusing. Bovard is a “character”!
