A “glitch.”
That’s what TikTok called it.
What it actually was: fraud, identity theft, destroyed credit, and felony-level consequences.
In this episode of Are You Smarter Than A Libertarian, Jeff dismantles the viral Klarna myth and explains why Buy Now, Pay Later doesn’t mean Buy Now, Disappear. From dark web identity schemes to quiet financial retaliation, this episode is a masterclass in why personal responsibility still exists.
Free money isn’t real.
Consequences are.

Do hunger strikes actually change policy or are they just moral theater.
In this episode of Are You Smarter Than A Libertarian, Jeff explains why hunger strikes for Palestine almost never achieve meaningful political change. We examine state power, repression, activist psychology, and why symbolic suffering feels powerful while remaining strategically useless.

The Federal Reserve cut interest rates again.
They say it is about jobs. They say inflation is under control. They say trust the data.
But inflation is still high, hiring is slowing, and the Fed cannot even agree with itself.
In this episode of Are You Smarter Than A Libertarian, we break down the Fed’s latest rate cut, the so-called dot plot, internal dissent at the central bank, and why Wall Street cheers while Main Street keeps paying more. We also dive into what this shift means for markets, Bitcoin, bonds, and the growing political pressure on the Fed as the next chair selection looms.
This is not a partisan rant. It is a clear-eyed look at how centralized control of money distorts incentives, misprices risk, and quietly drains your purchasing power.

If the Fed keeps getting it wrong, the real question is why they still control the most important price in the economy.

People say eating animals is wrong because they feel pain, but is that really a moral argument or just emotional activism? In this episode of Are You Smarter Than a Libertarian, Jeff breaks down the real difference between sentience and sapience, and explains why morality only applies to beings capable of moral reasoning.

Manning Johnson, once a top member of the Communist Party USA, saw firsthand how Marxists weaponized racial tensions, not to fight injustice, but to spark division and revolution. In his 1958 book Color, Communism, and Common Sense, he exposed the strategies of infiltration, manipulation, and hate that still echo today. Jeff dives deep into Johnson’s story and its shocking relevance to modern politics.

Is democracy really the pinnacle of freedom, or is it the beginning of decline? In this episode of Are You Smarter Than a Libertarian, Jeff dives into Hans-Hermann Hoppe’s explosive book Democracy: The God That Failed. We break down Hoppe’s life, his Austrian School roots, and his controversial arguments that democracy leads to short-term thinking, corruption, and societal decay.
From his comparisons between monarchy and democracy to his call for a natural order rooted in private property and voluntary cooperation, Hoppe forces us to rethink what freedom really means. Love him or hate him, his ideas cannot be ignored.

Jimmy Kimmel Live! is officially suspended, but the story isn’t just about offensive jokes. Behind the drama is a decade-long collapse in ratings, ad revenue, and the late-night comedy model itself. In this episode, we expose why Disney made the move and what it means for the future of free speech and television.

In today’s episode of Are You Smarter Than a Libertarian, I break down the real difference between sympathy and empathy. Sympathy allows us to offer support, problem-solve, and show compassion without getting consumed by another person’s emotions. Empathy, on the other hand, can lead to being pulled into someone else’s storm, sometimes at the cost of your own stability.
I share why I choose sympathy over empathy, the dangers of emotional manipulation, and how compassion truly exists when we stay grounded.

Worker cooperatives sound great on paper: democracy, equality, shared ownership. But when you drop them into a free-market economy, they run into massive roadblocks. From capital shortages to decision-making paralysis, from risk aversion to competitive disadvantages, history and economics both show why co-ops rarely scale up to rival capitalist corporations. In this episode, Jeff breaks down the theory, the evidence, and the case studies from U.S. plywood mills to Mondragon in Spain to explain why free markets favor capitalist firms.
