I’ve been having a conversation with a smart person pretending to be an idiot over on the Free State Project forum. Generally, the only point of an argument with someone who ignores logical and rational thought is for the benefit of the audience. Presumably at least some of those seeing the discussion will be rational and will gain something from the exchange, even if it’s just the realization that one of the people is full of shit. However, there was an added benefit to this otherwise seemingly hopeless attempt to have a rational discussion. I realized that a misinterpretation of a key term in the discussion has corrupted the entire debate.
You may recall a post where I talked (in jest, mostly) about how we named the show. Tomorrow is our 2nd live episode of Prometheus Unchained, a radio show where Neal Conner and I talk about LGBT issues (lesbian, gay, bisexual, & transgender) from a liberty perspective. I’m guilty of a mild breach of protocol by posting the cover art of the show as a comic, but otherwise it will get pushed down the page and possibly missed by new visitors.
You can listen live on the Liberty Radio Network between Noon and 2pm every Sunday or download any past episode for free for your computer or portable listening device from our website. RSS Feed is also now available. The website was just updated from what was essentially just a placeholder and the archive is now hosted on the new server which will be much more convenient. Download the first episode if you missed it.
I hope you’ll join us!
A note to those subscribed to the email list– the list is currently not functional which is why you didn’t get an email update about this post. I apologize and I’ll be addressing this and other reliability issues of this site in the immediate future.
I apologize for not posting much. I’ve been busy with a lot of creative projects. One of them is plans for a podcast with discussion of gay and lesbian issues from a liberty perspective, which has evolved into a radio show, with hosts Neal Conner and yours truly, and with a different guest host each week. And… our first show is tomorrow! Stephanie Murphy of the Porc Therapy Podcast will be our guest host. The show will be broadcast live on the Liberty Radio Network Sundays from noon to 2pm and you’ll be able to call in and join the discussion. The archive will be re-broadcast at various points each following week, as well as being download-able for free from the website. Read More
Here are highlights from a recent Talkback on WKBK. Fred Parsells sits in for Cynthia Georgina and has in Mark Edge from Free Talk Live as a co-host. They discuss the school teacher busted for cannabis, the drinking age, bike registration, and the homeless shelter. Fred and Mark also admit to performing civil disobedience!
Please join us for our weekly chat and calling sessions on Saturday mornings from 9a-12p. If you’re in the Keene area you can tune in to WKBK 1290 AM or 104.1 FM. The Talkback discussion thread is here on the Free Keene Forum.
Here’s WMUR TV’s story on today’s outreach at Manchester Airport, which happened all day long. I attended, with my not-so-great sign (I should have taken the time to fill-in the letters – it reads ‘US OUT OF NH – SECEDE NOW’) from 10a-2p and while I was there I saw a minimum of thirty activists, most of which were still there around 2pm.
There may still be an airport outreach event going on near you. Visit WeWontFly.com for details.
