Devon Eriksen, author of the Prometheus Award-nominated novel "Theft of Fire", joins Brian to discuss the power of storytelling in spreading libertarian ideas. Rather than telling people what to think, Devon argues that effective fiction gives readers new things to think about, allowing them to consider possibilities they may not have encountered before.

Throughout the conversation, Brian and Devon explore how empathy in storytelling helps people understand different perspectives, the importance of showing concrete visions of the future rather than abstract philosophies, and how technological advancements like the internet have democratized the publishing industry. 

Devon also shares insights into the three fundamental types of stories in American politics, and how the libertarian story is uniquely focused on empowering individuals to make better choices and improve the world.
