I talk a bit about pushes for free speech regulations on the internet, and although I might not articulate some of the best arguments for why this might be a bad thing, typically I think that regulations have a lot of unintended consequences that not only either make the problem worse, or create totally new unrelated problems, but that they also usually create barriers to entry within a market that might help to better establish currently existing monopolies.

In this episode I talk a bit about the market for private security as an alternative to police. I'm by no means an expert on the subject, and I do a terrible job explaining it in comparison to Bob Murphy, who I'd recommend you give a listen to. Here's an episode from his podcast about the market for private security and how it could replace police:

The bit that I did hope to contribute to the conversation are my arguments against the claim that the poor would have little to no access to private security. 

In this episode, I talk a bit about some of the anime I watched during the spring 2020 season, now that it's concluded. These aren't "reviews" as I don't feel qualified to offer in depth anime reviews, but I do talk about what anime I enjoyed, or felt were a bit lacking, as well as interesting aspects of the anime Ascendance of a Bookworm, and the 8th Son, from a libertarian perspective.

In this episode, I wanted to discuss the strange position Tim Pool seems to take on Google's monopoly, and competition within the search engine market, as well as discuss the strange irony in tearing down statues, and their history.

I'd recently shared a video by Tim Pool on FaceBook about how people are refusing to work in order to continue receiving unemployment benefits, and my aunt asked "How the hell are we going to pay for this?" In this episode I explain Quantitative Easing, the effects of inflation, and end on how I think we got to this point: by the harmful economic parallel between Keynesianism and Socialism/Communism, a denial of Say's Law, frequent use of the Broken Window Fallacy, and a demand-side view of economics.

This is also my first "scripted" episode. Some of it was scripted and some not, because I'm thinking I might be better able to concisely articulate my ideas by scripting my episodes. 

I might go between scripting episodes and winging it depending upon how much time I have to write a script and the necessity of having one.
