Do you hate politics?
Good! Your hate has made you powerful.
Now, fulfill your destiny and watch this show!
Lucy brings in Jeffrey Tucker and Sheldon Richman to talk about chivalry — whether it is (or should be) dead. And then they take on Yale students’ anti-liberal rabble-rousing.
- Free Association #13 — America’s Non-representative War Government
If we really live under a representative government, how can a president take the country to war without even a show vote in Congress, much less a referendum?
Libertarian legends Sheldon Richman and Lucy Steigerwald show you who the US government really represents.
For a primer on this topic, check out Sheldon's most recent article.
- The Future of Freedom #10

Scott Horton hosts Jacob Hornberger to catch up on the week’s wild events.
- Politics for People Who Hate Politics #1 — Season 2 Premiere
Welcome to Politics for People Who Hate Politics — Season 2 Premiere, in which Lucy Steigerwald, Todd Seavey, Franklin Harris, her brother Joe, and Jeff (you know, the Tucker variety.) discuss the 2016 election so far, the third Republican debate, and how horrible it all is; and then maybe a few token things that are much better than politics.
- Free Association #11 — Guns in Utopia
Sheldon Richman and Lucy Steigerwald understand liberty like Steve Irwin understood crocodiles. They're masters, plain and simple.

- Free Association #8 — ISIS
Sheldon Richman and Lucy Steigerwald make the perfect pair for any liberty webcast. Tune in for another edition of Free Association chalk-full of powerful insights!
This time, Sheldon and Lucy talk about ISIS. Is its horrific rise in the Middle East a good reason for more American invasions or drone strikes? Is there a libertarian answer to a threat like ISIS? And where did ISIS come from anyway?

- Jeffrey Tucker – Liberty Classics: As We Go Marching
Everyone's favorite Chief Liberty Officer, Jeffrey Tucker, is back for another dose of Liberty Classics. This week, he's chatting about John T. Flynn's As We Go Marching.
The work of John T. Flynn (1882–1964) is proof that the job of journalist once meant something very serious. As We Go Marching is a work of scholarship by any standard. It is well written, to be sure, but it covers the history and meaning of fascism with fantastic erudition, tracing its permutations from Italy to Germany to the United States.
Flynn was a man of remarkable courage and brilliance. He could not but write and speak the truth. He knew that it would come at a price and it was one he was willing to pay. And look at his legacy! This book is truth spoken to power, and it speaks still and will continue to do so for generations.

- Sheldon Richman — The Republican Push for War with Iran
Ted Cruz and the gang are on the war path again!
Hardliners in the U.S. Senate have taken another step toward thwarting detente by writing to Iranian Supreme Leader Khamenei that if he and President Obama negotiate a “mere executive agreement” on Iran’s (civilian) nuclear program that is not approved by Congress, it will bind neither Obama’s successor nor a future Congress.
The condescending letter, signed by 47 of 54 Republican senators, must have Iran’s Revolutionary Guard celebrating. With enemies like these who needs friends?
Join Sheldon Richman as he delves into the motives for this move, and the history behind the US-Iranian conflict.

- FFF Presents: Libertarianism, Social Cooperation, and the Tackling of Strawmen
Not a member? No problem! You can attend too through this link -- click "Enter as a Guest."
Are libertarians self-centered and anti-society? Mainstream critiques of liberty and individualism often portray libertarians as rugged hermits who care nothing for others and idolize self-sufficiency, but Sheldon Richman argues that this is hardly the case. Why did this misconception propagate, and how can we combat it? Join us as the Future of Freedom Foundation presents this frank discussion with Richman Tuesday, December 16th at 8pm EST!
- Jon Stewart and America's Civic Religion with Sheldon Richman
Click here to attend if you're not a member.
The Future of Freedom Foundation presents this sobering look at the sterility of America's current crop of political satirists, with Jon Stewart as the most prominent example. In recent days, Stewart has apologized both for joking about not voting, and for calling Harry Truman a war criminal. Why the apologies? What happened to the bold statements made by George Carlin and so many others, skewering the system with truth? Join Sheldon Richman Tuesday, November 18th at 8pm EST to discuss the state of American political satire and to ask your questions!
- FFF Presents: The Antimilitarist Libertarian Tradition with Sheldon Richman
The Future of Freedom Foundation presents:
It is not possible to favor both freedom and war. War goes with tyranny, despotism, and socialism, which is why the liberal tradition has been unflinching in its support of peace. Strangely, there are periods in which this truth has been forgotten or suppressed: 19th century British colonialism and 20th century American imperialism. But if you look closely at both cases, we find excellent illustrations of how you can’t be both pro-freedom and pro-war. Join Sheldon Richman for this important look at the liberty's peace-loving side Tuesday, October 21st at 8pm ET!
- FFF Webinar: The 100th Anniversary of the Great State Crime with Sheldon Richman
100 years ago, World War I began, claiming the lives of 16 million people, including 7 million noncombatants. With so much having been written in the last century, what's left to be said about the "Great War" at this late date? Could the men responsible for the war have wrought anything like the horrors they inflicted had they not controlled a state apparatus — an army, a navy, a compulsory revenue-collection agency, and a bureaucracy to conscript (enslave) the nation's young males? War was never inevitable. It was a product of human agency. Join Sheldon Richman for this important session, brought to you by the Future of Freedom Foundation, September 16th at 8pm EDT!
- Liberty Classics: As We Go Marching by John T. Flynn
This 1944 classic by John T. Flynn describes the effect that war has on the rest of society. Historically, wartime planning is often accompanied by fascism at home, with restrictions on economic and civil liberties. Join Jeffrey Tucker for a journey through this essential book Sunday, August 31st at 8pm EDT!
