The Last Nighters - Free-market Film Analysis

Merry Christmas!  Our pal Mike C. joins us to get in on a little Jimmy Stewart flick called, “It’s A Wonderful Life.”  We'll get into over this one as we have a sneaking suspicion that Robert doesn't like this one.  We'll make sure to ring that bell so some wings get redistributed properly.  

We get into all sorts of discussions about the market and how it serves people better and at varying levels of quality and price.  We talk about bank runs and how they are a check on poor policy and we also discuss how kindness begets kindness and how treating your fellow man as you would like to be treated makes the world a better place.  Not to mention my side-quest into Ancient Aliens and the Pyramid Code.  This is a fun one.

Join us next week as Raylene Lightheart returns for a New Year's movie, "When Harry Met Sally".

A movie that will kick off that Christmas spirit, "Gremlins". Our guest is Rocky Ferrenburg and we'll be sure to keep him dry so he stays fuzzy and cute.  Is it more Christmas than Die Hard?  We hash it out.  

A gadget salesman is looking for a special gift for his son and finds one at a store in Chinatown. The shopkeeper is reluctant to sell him the `mogwai' but sells it to him with the warning to never expose him to bright light, water, or to feed him after midnight. All of this happens and the result is a gang of gremlins that decide to tear up the town on Christmas Eve.

This week as we bring back our Batman guy, Shaheen from Australia, to talk about "The Killing Joke" which was part of the source material for the hit-movie "Joker" that we covered a few weeks ago with another guest as Shaheen had fallen ill. We'll get his take on that movie during this one, so it'll be a bit of a twofer.

Last week was our Thanksgiving episode where we celebrated the spirit of giving.  This week, we're going to celebrate the spirit of entrepreneurship by discussing "The Social Network" with an entrepreneur.  This is a fun discussion talking about something that has since become ubiquitous to so many in their daily lives, Facebook.  

Our guest is Miguel Duque, a business coach with MAPS Business Coaching (mymapscoach.com), offering weekly 1-on-1 coaching for business owners and entrepreneurs across all industries, and he created a free online community called Amagi Entrepreneurs.  We have a great discussion centering on IP, tact in business, and the role of the entrepreneur.

We tackle "Cast Away" for our Thanksgiving episode this year as Tom Hanks' final words in the film are "Thank you".  We want to express our gratitude for our listeners and the abundance afforded us by the vestiges of capitalism that raise the standard of living so that luxuries of the past are taken for granted in the present.

Our guest is Keith Knight of “Don’t Tread on Anyone” and “Liberty Weekly”.  This guy can talk a mile a minute, so we’ll try to keep up.

We’re about to apex our way through "El Camino" the continuation of the excellent series by Vince Gilligan, "Breaking Bad" with a feature-length film depicting the immediate aftermath of the events in the final episode. Jesse has emerged from the chaos in a daring escape but faces an uncertain future where he is willing to pay any price to find freedom.

Our guest is Jared Wall of Anarcho Land where one of his projects, called "Breaking Liberty", is an analysis of the series "Breaking Bad". He has two books out now and will be releasing a third.

Next week we're going to be like nature and oppress the shit out of Tom Hanks in "Cast Away" with Keith Knight of “Don’t Tread on Anyone” and “Liberty Weekly”.

We commemorate the 101st anniversary of the armistice marking cease-fire and the end to hostilities in the Great War, now known as World War I, as it, unfortunately, set the table for a 2nd conflict that was even larger and now featured nazis and communists.

Peter Jackson's documentary-take on the conflict in "They Shall Not Grow Old" which is a bringing-to-life account of the footage that is over 100 years old, with interviews from about 50 years ago mated with modern technology to bring vibrancy and color to the footage to bring a never-before-experienced look at the horrors of the Great War.

Our pal, Mike C. joins us for the discussion as our stars went out alignment with Jeff Deist of the Mises Institute who is running an event with Ron Paul this weekend.  You can view that event here (the Scott Horton talk ties right into our discussion, but they are all excellent):  https://youtu.be/IgoEFSrRnds

We will be back next week to discuss the Breaking Bad movie, "El Camino" with Jared Wall of Breaking Liberty.

Dry land is not a myth.  We haven't seen Waterworld six times like the Cable Guy, but we have seen it enough times and recently enough to do an episode on it with our pal, Peter R. Quinones (otherwise known as Mance Rayder) of the Free Man Beyond the Wall Podcast.  Get ready for a deep-dive into the NAP on this one.

Peter R. Quinones is managing editor of the Libertarian Institute and hosts the Free Man Beyond the Wall podcast. He released his first book, Freedom Through Memedom – The 31-day Guide to Waking Up to Liberty in November 2017. It reached #4 in the Libertarian Section on Amazon. He has spoken at Liberty Forum in Manchester, New Hampshire and is currently co-producing a documentary entitled, “The Monopoly on Violence,” which is scheduled for a 2020 release. It will feature the most prominent figures in libertarianism explaining how nation-states came into existence, the atrocities they commit and what a truly open libertarian society would look like.

Join us next week as we discuss "They Shall Not Grow Old" for Armistice Day, hopefully with Jeff Deist of the Ludwig von Mises Institute.

Pain does not exist in this dojo.  We hijack Halloween with a tangentially related movie, the Karate Kid.  We wax on and wax philosophical on this coming of age flick with the wondrous Raylene Lightheart of Blastoff! With Johnny Rocket.

Strike first.  Strike hard.  No mercy.

We’ll be back next week to talk “Waterworld” with our pal, Pete Quinones AKA “Mance Rayder” of the Free Man Beyond the Wall Podcast.

Striking while the iron is hot, so to speak, we talk "Joker" which is taking October by storm becoming a box office sensation breaking all sorts of records.  This of course, after critics panned it and mainstream media classified it as "dangerous".  This isn't just a comic book movie, this is a fully articulated film that could shed its comic skin and still have significant impact.

We had planned on having our Batman-man from Australia, but he has come down with an illness, so Captain A who was our guest for "Crazy Heart" who had also approached us to talk about the movie will be our guest this week.

Next week, we'll be bringing you an obliquely Halloween-themed flick, "The Karate Kid" with the uniquely awesome Raylene Lightheart of Blastoff! with Johnny Rocket.
