Download Episode. Scott interviews Mitchel Plitnick about Israeli politics and the Iran Nuclear Deal. Plitnick begins by filling us in on the political situation in Israel, where a new coalition government is working to agree upon a budget by the Fall of 2023. If they are unable to do so, the government will fall apart and new elections will take place. Next, they discuss the news about Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch labeling Israel an apartheid state due to their treatment of Palestinians. Plitnick and Scott give their theories for the abrupt change in tone. They then...

Tim Pool, Cold War Hawk Ep. 201
https://youtu.be/ZWQEtSGFLNM During the recent tensions involving Ukraine, Russia, and NATO, Tim Pool's commentary was indistinguishable from Antony Blinken's. What is behind the spate of "independent journalists" that are good on many issues, but sell the new cold war? And why are some libertarians buying it?

10/26/21 Cheryl Rofer on the Shoddy Science behind Havana Syndrome
Scott is joined by writer and chemist Cheryl Rofer. Rofer penned an article back in May that debunked the increasingly popular theory that numerous American intelligence and diplomatic personnel were in fact the victims of a targeted microwave weapon. Rofer points out that all of the supposed evidence can be explained away. On top of that, the theoretical weapon itself does not even make any sense and can certainly not explain the alleged cases. Discussed on the show: “Claims of Microwave Attacks Are Scientifically Implausible” (Foreign Policy) Cheryl Rofer is a writer of scientific and...
Essential Marxist Reading for Liberals and Conservatives
Fredrik deBoer is the author of The Cult of Smart, a book that unwittingly explains the sharp left turn of the Democrat Party and a growing number of young Americans. It also shows why the widening chasm between the far left and liberals and conservatives will never be bridged. For those reasons alone, it’s a very important book and should be read by traditional Democrats and Republicans, although a root canal would be less painful. If the book had been published when I was younger, I could’ve learned about Marxist thinking without having to labor through Das Kapital. At the leading edge...

The Cult of Keynes and Its Origins
The British Austrian economist W.H. Hutt was a great critic of Keynes’s economic theories. However, his speculations on why the New Economics revolution happened are even more fascinating. Hutt shows it to be a fundamentally dishonest undertaking. Keynes held a long-standing belief in inflation and public spending. His General Theory was the culmination of his search for an intellectual foundation on which to support his belief. Yet it was an unstable foundation. Had he stated his thesis in clear terms, it would have been seen as noncontroversial in some parts and in the rest untrue. The...
A Critique of Turkey’s Healthcare System
I am writing this article upon the death of Aslı Özkısırlar (38) on account of multi-organ failure. This painful incident happened because Ms. Özkısırlar couldn’t find a single available bed for 25 days at the nearest state-run hospital, making it impossible for her to get treatment. I have to remark that my purpose of writing...
The Enduring Genius of Murray Rothbard
This week we celebrate the life of Murray N. Rothbard, born on the second of March 1926, a Tuesday, in the Bronx. And what a Bronx it was, teeming with brilliant intellectuals, dedicated Communists, and rock-solid middle-class Americans like David and Rae Rothbard. The family would later become friendly with their apartment building neighbor in Manhattan, one Arthur F. Burns. Burns, an economist at Columbia, was destined for a political career at the Council of Economic Advisers under Eisenhower and as Federal Reserve chairman, appointed by Nixon. Tellingly, Burns was also the man who...
