The Tom Woods Show

Judge Andrew Napolitano recently featured Jeff Deist of the Mises Institute and me on his podcast Judging Freedom. We discuss the Supreme Court decisions regarding vaccine mandates, and where American society is likely to go from here.

Scott Atlas, special adviser to the president on the coronavirus and a member of the White House Coronavirus Task Force, discusses his work at the White House, the truth about Fauci and Birx, and the collapse of the public health establishment's credibility.

Jake Wiskerchen and Mike Sodini of Walk the Talk America are helping within the mental-health community to reduce stigmas and negative stereotypes about gun owners while reducing, among gun owners themselves, the stigma surrounding mental health counseling, in order to reduce suicides by firearm.

Lew Rockwell, publisher of and founder and chairman of the Mises Institute, joins me for a wide-ranging discussion of restrictions around the world, whether political action can do any good, what another Trump run would mean, and so on.

With all the domestic insanity we're understandably focused on, it's easy to neglect what's happening in foreign policy -- Ukraine and Kazakhstan seem so remote to us, after all. But the lizard people could be cooking up a real disaster here, and we need to know what's going on.

We've been spending so much time focused on the virus madness that we may have missed some of the less dramatic insanity of the Biden world. Case in point: mandates on cars that will have a dramatic and deleterious effect on the automobile market. Libertarian car expert Eric Peters joins us to discuss this and other issues, including how to buy a used car on a budget.

Eli Klein, a lifelong Democrat, opposed the COVID restrictions from the beginning, and says he will never demand proof of vaccination to enter his Manhattan art gallery. Sponsors:

Tom Mullen returns to discuss how the Federal Reserve, the institution that's been kept off everybody's radar and was scarcely discussed in politics until 2007 -- nearly a hundred years after its creation -- ought to unite even people with the most divergent ideologies.

After a brief overview of my recent trip to St. John (U.S. Virgin Islands) and COVID stuff I witnessed there, I turn to the Supreme Court: not the Sotomayor nonsense, which you already know about, but the excellent amicus brief co-authored by Tom Woods Show guest Jay Bhattacharya of Stanford.

We wrap up Michael Malice week with some common objections to anarchism and how best to think about those issues.

Michael Malice and Tom discuss their interesting experiences publishing books (via both traditional publishers and self-publishing) and what they've learned -- and what you should know -- about it.

Michael Malice and Tom discuss statelessness, an option some may have dismissed in the past, but which in light of the present dystopia becomes more attractive every day.

Michael Malice, whose Anarchist Handbook became a sensation in 2020, joins me to talk about the ideas it contains and how best to communicate them.

We kick off 2022 and a new Michael Malice week with a discussion of what scenarios, particularly involving the virus and the tyranny, could await us in the new year.

Allen Mendenhall of Troy University joins me for a potpourri episode in which we devote some time to whether the Constitution commits us to an ideological program of ongoing revolution or whether it is intended to be simply a framework within which people of differing ideologies can coexist peacefully.

CJ Killmer, host of the Dangerous History Podcast, has lived in Florida for nearly four decades and has taught Florida history at the college level for years. He joins us to discuss Florida in the age of COVID, the pros and cons of moving to Florida, the different areas of Florida and which ones you might prefer, and some Florida history.

Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., joins us to discuss his new book, , which paints rather an unflattering portrait of the face of the American COVID response.

In a recent episode of the Mises Institute's Human Action Podcast, hosted by Jeff Deist, we discussed the Old Right, the loose collection of writers and thinkers who opposed domestic and foreign interventionism. Their names have almost been forgotten, and Jeff and I want to make curious people aware of them.

Daniel McAdams, executive director of the Ron Paul Institute for Peace and Prosperity and co-host of the Ron Paul Liberty Report, joins us to talk about the challenge of spreading uncomfortable truths to the largest possible audience without getting deplatformed.

Mark Crispin Miller, who teaches (among other things) a course on propaganda for New York University, discusses his run-in with the administration, as well as how the present case of propaganda compares with previous examples.
