Episode 211 - Breakdown: The Police Shoot and Kill Ryan Whitaker

Subscribe to the podcast Unfortunately, yet another shooting by police has occurred that we must talk about.  Ryan Whitaker was killed when police opened fire when he answered the door in the middle of the night while holding a gun.  He was an innocent man and didn't deserve his fate. We decided to do a breakdown of this tragic event and approach it from the perspective of a reliability engineer performing a root cause failure analysis and using other relevant tools to identify the true root causes of this shooting and suggest some corrective actions.  Be prepared: we discuss this awful event rather dispassionately, so please make the effort to understand our approach when we explain it. We hope that one day the proper steps will be undertaken to make sure these events never happen again.

Episode 202 - Stupid Racism Hysteria

Subscribe to the podcast Last week, we spoke about bad libertarian takes on the protests, riots, and looting following the killing of George Floyd.  We have something else that's stuck in our craw that we want to talk about: the insanity of the hysterics of accusing everyone of being a racist.  Plenty of this is obviously stupid, but it can be more subtle and permeate our lives.  Do most people overreact to the possibility of racism?

Episode 201 - I Thought Libertarians Were Supposed to be Consistent: A Review of Reactions to the George Floyd Events

Subscribe to the podcast As we approached the end of the year, no one could have predicted what was in store for us in 2020.  The murder of George Floyd by Minneapolis police has sparked nationwide protests decrying the abuse of black Americans at the hands of the police.  And with these protests have also come riots, looting, and even more abuses committed by the police.  There's a lot to take in and try to unwrap and it's confusing and frustrating.  If any group should be prepared to deal with wading through this mess, it should be libertarians, but unfortunately, many have dropped the ball and have missed very badly with their takes.

Episode 200 - Acquire Capital, Defeat the State

Subscribe to the podcast I have been pretty ornery on Twitter commenting on the effectiveness of throwing cucumbers at the state, so we decided to take this opportunity to take some time and systematically go through why we think strategies like growing your own food (while fun) isn't a very effective way to defeat the state.  Instead, we should look to develop technology to create innovations that give us better leverage to use our time and resources more effectively. But before we get into the meat of the episode, Slappy and I talk about Chillderburg Dos that I just returned from today.

Episode 178 - Discuss with Buck: Will Touching the Libertarian Party Turn Me to Stone?

Subscribe to the podcast Our friend Buck joins us this week to talk about his plans to try to become a delegate for the Libertarian Party so he can vote to make Jacob Hornberger the presidential nominee.  He only wants to nominate Hornberger so he can spread the message of liberty and convert people to the movement and wants no other involvement in politics (including voting in the election).  He wants us to join the Libertarian Party simply to support him.  Are we being unreasonable by saying no when the effort on our part would be very low? After all, Bitcoin fixes all of this.

Subscribe to the podcast We all want to grow the libertarian movement, but not everyone always fully buys in.  We don't want to do purity testing, but we need some some ways to qualify and define libertarians.  We use a few examples to work out how to deal with this issue and try to appreciate some of the nuance to come up with something suitable.

Episode 174 - Government Picks the Low-Hanging Fruit to Take Guns from and Throw in Cages

Subscribe to the podcast With red flag laws looming around us, the government has been more active in confiscating guns from the people it deems shouldn't have them.  While they are something to worry about, does it distract us from paying attention to the things it already does at achieve the same ends?  We look at two things going on this episode: an article detailing a new Pennsylvania law that requires people convicted a domestic abuse crime to turn in their guns and the case of Derek Heuring, an Indiana man who police busted for meth after obtaining a warrant to search his house with probable cause that he stole the GPS tracker they planted on his car because it went silent.  They're not very likely to take our guns en masse but will instead go after some easy targets first that will be hard for most people to defend.

Episode 171 - Frigid Bitcoin Cold Storage Using Yeti Cold with JW and Will Weatherman

Subscribe to the podcast Bitcoin can only be useful if users are able to properly and adequately secure their keys.  If someone can easily find a way to gain access to your keys, then your Bitcoin is as good as gone.  As the value of Bitcoin continues to climb, hodlers will find it all the more imperative to have cold storage options that eliminate as many attack surfaces as possible.  A number of products and services available for purchase like hardware wallets and custodial multisignature arrangements, but they have their own drawbacks, so there is still a need for solutions that are simple to use and don't make the same security compromises.  Enter Yeti Cold, an open source project by JW Weatherman and his son, Will, aimed at providing a solution for maximizing the safety of your Bitcoin.

Episode 170 - Libertarian Charm School with Carey Wedler

Subscribe to the podcast Libertarians do a lot of things well, but I think that we can all admit that socially we can often use a little bit of help. We have a great message of peace and love, but the reactions we get from people can be so redundant and frustrating that we have the tendency to get a little bit nasty. We also tend to take very aggressive stances on positions that our non-libertarian friends might not be ready for. We invited Carey Wedler on the show to discuss how we can do a better job with interacting with others and spreading our message.
