Ever wonder why a candy bar costs a $1? Or why a pizza costs nearly $20? On today's episode Brittany and Connor dive into prices and where they come from. Spoiler alert, we might have more power over this as consumers than you might think!

For as long as there have been governments, those in power have been using media and art to manipulate the public into thinking or doing what they want. We often call this "propaganda." On today's episode, Brittany and Connor talk about what propaganda means and how individuals can learn to identify it in their everyday lives.

Former congressman Dr. Ron Paul joins Connor and Brittany today to talk about liberty for the next generation, his time in Congress, and what we can all do to spread the freedom philosophy.

Halloween is just around the corner. Traditionally, this has been a holiday where kids can dress up as people they love and admire as they go trick-or-treating. But over the last few years, some people have decided that it is inappropriate for kids to dress up in costumes that portray another person's culture. They call this "cultural appropriation." But is this really a problem, or merely a way of showing appreciation and respect for other cultures?

On past episodes, we've used the word "libertarian" before, but we've never really dug deeper into what this world means. Today, Connor and Brittany discuss what a libertarian is and how, just like in other ideologies, this name has taken on different meanings for different people.

A lot of people blame capitalism for climate problems and think we need the government to protect our environment. In reality, the best defender the environment is the free market. And many young individuals are already using the market to protect the environment.

At some point in each of our lives, we will fail at something. Often, we see "failure" as a negative, but failure is an important part of success. Even the most successful people have had to fail before experiencing their greatest victory.

Our country is founded on the belief that every single person has a right to life, liberty, and property. Today, Brittany and Connor discuss how property became a defining characteristic of free and independent people and why this is still so important today.

Every time an individual takes an action, there are consequences. Sometimes we can see the consequences of our actions immediately, like if we don’t tie our shoe and then trip and fall down. Other times, it’s more difficult to see the consequences of the things we do. Today we discuss what Frédéric Bastiat had to say about this phenomenon and how it leads many people astray.
