A New Reason Podcast Is Just Asking Questions
Dave Smith joins Zach Weissmueller and Liz Wolfe for the first episode of Just Asking Questions.

Just Asking Questions is a new Reason podcast hosted by Zach Weissmueller and Liz Wolfe. Each week they bring you long-form conversations diving deep into a single topic for an hour or more, with data, media clips, and guests who can teach, challenge, and have fun. To hear future episodes, subscribe to Just Asking Questions and watch video premieres on Reason's YouTube channel every Thursday.
In this inaugural episode of Just Asking Questions, podcaster Dave Smith joins the show to tackle a fundamental question: "What is a libertarian?"
Smith discusses what has recently transpired in the Libertarian Party; his past and present disagreements with Reason-style libertarians; whether politicians are incompetent, evil, or both; and his greatest libertarian "white pill" for the future.

Just got done reading Samuel Burgess on Edmund Burke.You better rush to take his exhibit out of the Libertarian Wax Museum.He hated almost all the core priniciples of Libertarianism
But what interested me ( a Peter Stanlis and Francis Canavan fan) is that Burke made RELIGION absolutely central and therefore Freedom of Religion. Maybe this is why everybody for 20 years bowed to Aayan Hirsi Ali in politics and atheism but now that she is a Christian they think maybe it was 20 years of drugs in the public water that distorted their opinion 🙂
