The Tom Woods Show

The dissident wing of the American Right continues to show promise from a libertarian point of view, especially but not limited to foreign policy. Nothing is less fashionable than to support Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, but her recent statement about the situation and Ukraine is better than almost anything I've heard from that branch of libertarianism that's desperate to be reasonable, and nice, and palatable to the establishment, and be as compliant as possible with whatever the current obsession is, under the weird delusion that this will make them acceptable.

Scott Horton joins me for a sober look at the present situation, answers common critics ("duh, you're repeating Putin talking points!"), and gives us a solid backgrounder.

The brilliant Jeff Herbener, economics department chairman at Grove City College, joins us to answer my followers' questions on economics: everything from the current state of the world to the Fed to boom-bust cycles and more.

Rainer Zitelmann, author of the new book Hitler's National Socialism, discusses Hitler's views of society, economics, and politics.

Search engine Duck Duck Go just announced that it would be downgrading results it considered "Russian propaganda." Blue-pilled libertarians will consider this a "market response" to the Russian invasion of Ukraine. We red-pilled libertarians are a teensy bit less naive than that. Plus a lot more in this episode.

And how to escape it, with Exit Group founder Kevin Dolan.

The great Dave Smith and I discuss the state of the liberty movement and the world. (Can't put this episode on YouTube, because we note that natural immunity is superior to vaccine-induced immunity, and you're not allowed to state that truth there.)

Yesterday I had a chance to attend a COVID-related roundtable hosted by Florida governor Ron DeSantis and plenty of voices of reason were to be heard.

If we're going to be faithful to the tradition of thought we have inherited, we must sometimes defend unpopular truths. If instead we'd rather jump on whatever the latest left-wing bandwagon is, then there's no point to our existence.

This is the backgrounder you need on the history leading up to the present moment. The great Scott Horton includes copious quotations from members of the foreign-policy establishment predicting exactly what is happening now, so if anyone is inclined to pretend that libertarians are "blaming America," they're going to have to argue like adults, if they can, after hearing this.

Germinal G. Van joins me to discuss his 22nd book, in which he evaluates the good and the bad in Jeffersonian economic policy.

After the Canadian government's crackdown on the truckers, people are looking for answers and alternatives when it comes to money, and we're all interested in fortifying our privacy. Naomi Brockwell, an expert in both of these areas, joins us to discuss.

Russian expert Gilbert Doctorow joins us for a rational discussion of the conflict between Russia and ukraine, and to caution against the wild demands of armchair warriors on the Internet who seem oblivious to the dangers involved in escalation.

A bill that became law in Missouri in June 2021 prevents state and local law enforcement from cooperating in the execution of federal gun regulations in the state. The Justice Department considers this a violation of the Supremacy Clause (of course). Missouri is standing its ground. Dave Roland, the chief drafter of the law, joins us for this episode.

James Lindsay returns to discuss his new book on the origins and consequences of Critical Race Theory. Can it really derive from Marxism if it lacks the traditional economic analysis? We have plenty to discuss in this episode.

Saifedean Ammous, who's written a brutal smash of the fiat money system, traces other problems to the perverse incentives introduced by the government's money. In this episode we discuss two primary ones: the substitution of industrial sludge for real food, and the introduction of inefficient and inadequate energy sources in place of ones that work.
