Mark Edge speaks with Eric Brakey, Executive Director of the Free State Project, at the Libertarian National Convention about why concentrating libertarians in one state is producing real, measurable wins — while national third-party politics keeps spinning its wheels.

They cover the culture of accomplishment over endless philosophical debates, New Hampshire's unique citizen legislature, the New Hampshire Liberty Alliance's scorecard system, and why the Free State may be libertarianism's best shot at lasting change.

Mark Edge and Robbie Miles discuss something Robbie is passionate about at the Libertarian National Convention. He shares his journey from mainstream environmentalist to liberty advocate. Robbie breaks down why he believes the government is the wrong tool to solve climate change, how tort law and free markets could tackle pollution more effectively than regulation, and why the Live and Let Live Foundation is building a global mutual aid network around two simple principles — don't aggress, and be excellent.

A wide ranging conversation touching on regenerative agriculture, seasteading, free cities, AI, property rights, and what world peace might actually look like.

Sal and Mark are back for episode six, fresh off a month of travels — Bitcoin Vegas, Consensus Miami, and BCH Bliss in Slovenia. Before diving in, Sal recounts his wild Homeland Security detainment at Tampa Airport — arrested for weed on the jetway.

The guys break down the chaos at the Libertarian National Convention in Grand Rapids — rubber chickens, stolen pamphlets, a gnarly slap, and the disaffiliation of the Libertarian Party of New Hampshire — and contrast it with what the Agorists are actually building.

Then, Sal's full speech from BCH Bliss on how to truly privatize your Bitcoin Cash using Cash Fusion, BCHX, Edge Wallet, and Nym. Followed by a deep dive interview with Alan from Quai Network — a scalable proof of work blockchain with smart contracts, a dual token system, merge mining, and a flat coin tied to the price of energy. Plus the weekly Firo Frontier segment covering the latest in privacy coin development.

In this episode of the Mark Edge Show, Mark sits down with comedian and author Andrew Heaton to discuss his new book, Tribalism is Dumb: Where It Came From, How It Got So Bad, and What to Do About It — a book Mark calls the best he's read in a decade. Blending Douglas Adams-style wit with serious anthropological and evolutionary research, Heaton explains why humans are innately tribal, why political parties have become the "last tribe standing" as other community and identity groups have eroded, and why technology — especially social media — is likely the real culprit behind the last two decades of escalating partisanship. The conversation also digs into the difference between authoritarian and pluralist impulses, why the left-right axis fails to capture what's actually going on in politics, and why politics brings out the worst in people when it becomes a replacement religion. Grab Tribalism is Dumb on Amazon or Audible (the audiobook is performed by Heaton himself and highly recommended).

Through overcharging, excessive sentencing, and inconsistent enforcement, IAN FREEMAN is being unjustly prosecuted for standing up for financial privacy.

The government has targeted Ian for his role in promoting financial privacy through cryptocurrency, with made-up charges built on false narratives.

His case represents a dangerous precedent: if we allow this to happen, anyone who advocates for privacy and decentralized financial systems could be next.

Dan McMillan joins Mark Edge at the Libertarian National Convention to discuss Make Voters the Donors — a proposal to give every registered voter "voter dollars" to fund the candidates of their choice, shifting political power away from lobbyists and billionaires and back to everyday Americans.

McMillan breaks down how the voluntary public financing system would work, why it doesn't require a constitutional amendment, and how grassroots organizing in key swing states could make it a reality by 2030. MakeVotersTheDonors.org
