Munger waxes poetic about the dangers of the Trade Wars.

Take the highway to the end of the night with ex-punk rocker Chris Barry. His abject failure and humiliation in having to front a Doors cover band and; then lifting himself out of the abyss to COCKting porn scripts in L.A. A life lived that shows us the way through the "garbage and the flowers."

Back for a second time!

Did the Catholic Church repress French Canada for a century or did it assist in the dispersion of services to the population? Vincent and Jason dig into it. Did Uber destroy the livlihoods of thousands of Montreal taxi drivers or crush a system of privileges that needed ending? Find out how Vincent and Jason originally met and Vincent's testimony to the Quebec government regarding rideshares and taxis. Should Quebec be an independant nation? Vincent points out the only way that can happen is if a very conservative route is taken. Are French-Canadians the most British people in the world?

Economist, Philosopher, and Joker Mike Munger and I dig into the depths of his discipline. What makes people flourish? Mike and Jason talk about what helps the people of the world: a chance to build their own lives. Why are so many people trying to get into the US, Canada, and Europe? What do poverty and wealth mean to regular people? What exactly is the Sharing Economy? Mike explains. Where is this new form of economic activity going? Mike sees nothing but great opportunities, though no one individual of us is smart enough to know what is going to happen. People are smart, and figure out their own futures best if left alone.

Tom and I go toe to toe on how the mainstream media is circling the drain, and how the Wire Season 5 was prophetic in predicting this collapse. Siebert deconstructs the Big Lie in Wire S05, his own underestimation of The Wire, and what the Wire did so well and not so well. If the truth is a moving target, is current journalism up to the task of setting its sights on it? Is Craigslist guilty of collapsing conventional newspaper revenue?

Mark Gabriel - painter, musician, bass player, and one of my oldest friends. We go deep into where inspiration comes from as well as the music that defines us. From our childhood experience seeing the Clash at Maple Leaf Gardens in Toronto through his many indy groups, and now his solo career as a musician in Mexico, we drill down. I loved this one and it promises to be the first of many!

Me and John Hamer mixing it up about the Great Thomas Sowell, originally published on the Likeville Podcast.
