We all know how bad the media is, but just how bad is it?  We recently came across a concept called the Gell-Mann Amnesia effect (thanks, Vake), which just about perfectly sums up how poorly a lot of us take in information given to us by the media.  How do we deal with this?

Lee Enfield of En Bloc Press listened to a recent episode where we mentioned how Bitcoin is a perfect fit for the 3D printed gun community and penned a blog post laying out a number of use cases for 3D gun printers.  It was a long time coming, so we decided to invite Lee to the show to discuss the best match since peanut butter and chocolate.

It would be appropriate that our first guest to come on the show to talk Bitcoin would be the one who gives his two sats about the issue of popular libertarians not talking about Bitcoin very much.  Bitcoin is the best tools that libertarians have ever had to fight the state, so what's the deal with the biggest podcasters and promoters often seeming gun shy if not disinterested about it?

So how did all of that libertarian promotion from the LP work out this election cycle?  Did the LP learn their lesson?  Should libertarians focus on trying to convert more people from the right or the left?  What do we think is the best strategy for attracting people to liberty?

It's time to take your medicine!  Or that's what you'd be led to believe with the announcement that Pfizer has a COVID vaccine.  We discuss why vaccines aren't necessarily safe or effective, riff on a funny Pfizer-led conspiracy theory, and then provide the real reasons for all of this nonsense.

Jon Miltimore of the Foundation for Economic Education penned a piece that made the case for some legislation aimed at reducing the number of suicide deaths that wouldn't violate libertarian principles.  Did he make a good case and is it a workable idea?  We read and critique the piece.
