The Liberty Mic

123: I Do What I Want

There's a little bit of Libertarian Party state convention coverage to start.  That rolls into the advice Michael gave a candidate, and the balance is spent on understanding.

122: Self-Fulfilling Prophecy

The Ukraine crisis, more history, insight and commentary.  We discuss who stands to benefit, principles of self-government and why the US is supporting the wrong side in both Ukraine and Canada.

121: The Right Side Up

If you subscribe to the multiverse theory, you know there are an infinite number of universes out there where the pandemic was managed very differently.  We describe one such world.

120: It’s the Content

We have a new assessment on the possibility of Russia invading Ukraine... sort of.  We discuss how much the US government cares about you -- and people, in general.  Most of the episode, though, is devoted to an examination of an exchange between AP Journalist, Matt Lee and Ned Price, spokesliar for the State Department.

119: Keep on Truckin’

Does the government use its coercive power purely to protect revenue for US corporations? Are they willing to risk your health for the same reason? Is it ironic for the Executive to make appointments based on gender and ethnic background to the body that overturned the Civil Rights Act? Finally, are Canadian truckers the heroes we want or need?

118: No One Wins

It turns out that Michael's dentist doesn't watch the news, so for him and all those like him, we give a primer on Kazakhstan, Ukraine and Russia, US and NATO involvement.  There's a lot, so this may be Part 1.  We shall see.

117: Declared End

We know it's been awhile, but this isn't the declared end of the podcast, rather the pandemic.  Michael tells you you're free to return to normal life on this solo episode.

116: Biggest Probe

We have an old narrative, an untold narrative and a shifting narrative to discuss this evening.  There's also some history and a little bit of I-told-you-so.

115: Always Safe and Effective

We cover a potential deterrent to corruption, a report of corruption, a report of not-officially-corruption and then, in a sense, some more corruption.

114: Bad Boys

We assess Kirby's statements about disciplining the people responsible for the Afghan family drone bombing. We, also, talk about patriotism and its relation to the news item of the year. We close with a discussion of holiday traffic stops and an impromptu debate between the hosts. Merry Christmas, everyone!
