Last week, Reason.tv released videos and interviews about Ayn Rand's continued influence and impact on American culture. Among the subjects covered: Rand's continued cultural cachet in TV shows ranging from Mad Men to The Simpsons; interviews with Reason Foundation Co-Founders Bob Poole, Manny Klausner, and Tibor Machan; and a Q&A with Goddess of the Market author Jennifer Burns about Rand's ambivalent but hugely influential role in the post-war American right.
Those videos are all available at Reason.tv and Reason.tv YouTube channel (subscribe now!).
This week, we've got more video related to the author of The Fountainhead and Atlas Shrugged. Click below to watch an interview with Joshua Zader, the founder of Atlasphere, a dating service for Objectivists and other Rand enthusiasts (no looters or moochers, please!).
And coming later this week: A profile of award-winning winemaker Bryan Babcock, exclusive new interviews with Barbara Branden and Nathaniel Branden, and a video of Reason's November 2 event in DC "Radicals for Capitalism: Celebrating the Enduring Ideas of Ayn Rand."
