Welcome to the inaugural episode of Freedom, a show about ideas that matter. For our first conversation, we wanted a big idea. One that has the potential to reconfigure how we think about politics and political institutions. And that meant bringing back one of our favorite guests, our good friend Jason Kuznicki. Jason is the author of the fascinating book, Technology and the End of Authority: What Is Government For?, and was a frequent guest on Free Thoughts. Today he introduces us to the domus mindset, a way of understanding the power structures of politics and culture as downstream consequences of the lords, wives, servants, and slaves structure of historical households.

Listen to a bonus conversation between Trevor and Aaron about their evolving political views.
