Tommy invited Dr James Lyons-Weiler, the CEO and founder of IPAK, on the podcast to discuss Covid19 and how the CDC bungled its response. Dr Jack has been extremely critical of the CDC and FDA response to the novel Coronavirus, and he was more than happy to spend time discussing what this virus is, what he’s discovered in his research, and how the CDC has made this crisis worse.
Tommy invited Mike Korbel of The Invictus Mind podcast to come back on the show. They discuss how the hysteria around Covid19 has effected people, the potential for tyranny, and the future of liberty.
Tommy invited Sherry Voluntary to come back to the show. They discuss how she is discussing the current hysteria with her kids, and how she’s seeing their future as the economy nose-dives.
In this episode Tommy looks at the idea of collectivism from the perspective of the markets, and how libertarians may better discuss the ideas of free markets with both the left and right.

Donnie Gebert of the Direct Republic podcast and author of The Null Hypothesis of Politics joined Tommy for episode 101. Donnie’s idea of a Direct Republic, decentralization down to the individual, was thought up within a mind trained and educated by the DOD to topple governments through peaceful revolution. When Donnie realized the enemy was domestic and not abroad he put his education to work at home.
On episode 100 Pete Quinones of The Free Man Beyond the Wall podcast joined Tommy to discuss the state of policing, interacting with the police, and alternatives to the monopoly on policing the government holds.
In episode 98 Tommy takes on the idea that any one ism should be argued as superior over another. When people argue capitalism v socialism v communism v progressivism v fascism they are forgetting that they are arguing in favor of forced integration or forced segragation. In a society founded on liberty people would be able to choose the ism that best fits them and the coercion that enforces and props up their preferred ism would be null and void.
