Weekly live webcast/podcast devoted to discussion of news and politics from the perspective of Objectivism, the philosophy of Ayn Rand. Hosted by Amy Peikoff.

 

Topics:

"Occupy Black Friday" -- Why was it a failure? And were Tea Party groups right to promote "Small Business Saturday" as a response? (Hint: I argue they weren't, even though they had the right to do so.)

Bosch spoke on a panel at David Horowitz's Restoration Weekend, in which the topic of discussion was what terms we should use when referring to the enemy's ideology -- "Islam" or "Islamism." (The panel, along with numerous discussions on this topic, inspired me to write this blog post earlier this week.) We discuss the issue, and get your input.

The GOP Foreign Policy Debate: What we learned about the candidates, and why Newt Gingrich's supposed gaffe on immigration just wasn't that bad.

A brief discussion of the NBA Lockout and the power of the player's union.

Thanks to all who attended live and participated in the chat room. And to the caller who had sound problems: please try again next week!
