The Liberty Mic

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!

113: Nu-Coup

We start with more fantasy sports than you probably want, but we transition to two more big, quiet trials that are finishing. We discuss US rivals and the current saber-rattling; and we finish with Assange, Manning, Kiriakou, Hale and all the other whistleblowers for government crime and corruption prosecuted by the US government, while the criminals go free.

112: Boycott Popplers

Olympics, Ukraine and the Omicronians...

111: Dime in the Rough

Whiskey to start, and that evolves into a discussion of citizen law enforcement and personal risk assessment.  Then, can you impose your risk limitations on others?  We close on some economic discussion minted from the CPC's imposition on Tencent.

110: Speed Trials

We discuss the two well-publicized trials which recently concluded and their relations to race in the US. We, also, throw in a little political news and some health stuff to close.

Episode 109: Theater

All the world's a stage, and we continue to play our parts.  Perhaps it's time to start questioning the Director, doubting the playwright or challenging the audience before we exit the stage.  Meanwhile, the next stage of authoritarianism has been reached in Europe.
