Michael is joined by Edward Stringham, President of the American Institute for Economic Research and the Davis Professor of Economic Innovation at Trinity College, for a relevant revelation on how the current state of social distancing was birthed through a school science fair project. Edward effectively breaks down the faulty logic of popular social simulations, by humanizing the hypothetical "agents" used in models with both problems and choices we currently face in the real world, demonstrating just how economically irresponsible the collective response to a pandemic has been.

Michael is joined once again by Dave Smith as they discuss Elon Musk's recent brave yet basic breakdown of economics during the pandemic, how to effectively communicate libertarian ideas using emotional language, an update on the happenings of the Libertarian party, and so much more!

Michael is joined once again by Dave Smith for a slightly different discussion on this week's episode. Veering away from the world of politics, they delve into the five love languages, the societal evolution of self expression, generational differences in terms of freedom and acceptance, a breakdown of what it takes to achieve both personal goals and happiness, and so much more!

Dave Smith returns to continue the quarantine conversation, during the reign of Daves! They discuss the state of the Biden campaign (and the recent interview regarding the Tara Reade allegations), how this will impact the DNC going forward, what happened to Bernie, and the ethics of warfare.
