They deftly slay the myth that libertarians are anti-Israel by distinguishing biblical Israel from the modern nation-state, that libertarians aren't anti-zionist or anti-semitic because they have valid criticisms of Israel, and that libertarians are anti-aggression no matter which country is behind it. As a bonus, you also get to learn about theological terms like eschatology and dispensationalism. It's a good thing that the Sexton was flowing... ...2018-04-0408 min

Rob details the dualism of Anarcho-Communism, how the twain should never meet, how it appears to be agitating for a GBIG, and how it does not believe that there can be an objective measurement of labor productivity. If Anarcho-Communists get their way, productivity drops to nil, and you cannot be downsized for lack of work. It's a good thing that the Bulleit is flowing...2018-03-0707 min

Half-Hour Liberty HourEpisode 026 - Gun Hysteria and Our Response to Knee-Jerk ReactionsIn this episode, the Dynamically Drunken Duo lay aside the topic they were originally going to record (an Oxford-style debate on socialism in professional sports) in favor of addressing gun hysteria in the wake of the Florida high school shooting.

Half-Hour Liberty HourEpisode 025 - Liquor and Liberty - In Defense of the Whisky RebellionHoly Cow! The Dynamically Drunken Duo have stumbled into their 25th episode. Who knew that they had enough brain cells left to do so? They sure didn't think they did. In honor of their 25th episode, Brett and Rob celebrate by drinking a whole bunch of whisky and discuss an episode in American history that is wrongly taught today: The Whisky Rebellion of 1794.

Half-Hour Liberty HourEpisode 023 - Why Downsizing Can Be A Good ThingThe Dynamically Drunken Duo are back with the first episode of 2018, and it's the first time they've been together to record since late September. Why such a long time between new episodes? The guys explain it all for you.

Half-Hour Liberty HourEpisode 021 - Infighting Within The Liberty MovementHAPPY THANKSGIVING TO ALL! It's been a while since we have heard from the Dynamically Drunken duo (close to two months...c'mon guys!). It has been a very challenging two months in the personal lives of the guys. Brett has been dealing with stress-related health problems that have caused him to quit his part-time job and Rob has recently been informed that he will be downsized from his full-time job early in the new year. These two factors combined has drastically slowed the production of this show. This episode was originally recorded in mid-September 2017 for...2017-11-2328 min

Half-Hour Liberty HourEpisode 020 - The Fallacies of the Global Basic Income GuaranteeAfter a long protracted illness on Brett's part, the Dynamically Drunken Duo are back to tackle the Global Basic Income Guarantee (aka GBIG). Nothing says elitist socialist plot like "free money". Somebody's gotta pay for it, and it's gonna be you.

Half-Hour Liberty HourBonus Episodelet 010 - The Missing Objections From The RightHey Everyone! It's been a trying past couple of weeks as Rob was sick (run-down from all his jobs) and after he was better, Brett became sick (also run-down from all his jobs). To keep your liberty-mindedness sharp, here are the two additional objections from the Right that were cut for time from Episode 017 - Common Objections From The Right. Obviously, the two and the others from that episode are not the only objections from the Right, but they are ones that we commonly hear from folks when they learn that we are libertarians. 5. Libertarians would let...2017-09-1411 min
Half-Hour Liberty HourEpisode 019 - Can I Be A Libertarian And...? #3In this episode, Brett and Rob have a third discussion of questions they have been asked in the past by people who are curious about libertarianism.

Can I Be a libertarian and Be Conservative? Can I Be a libertarian and Support Gun Control?

Half-Hour Liberty HourBonus Episodelet 009 - What Happens In Europe Won't Stay In EuropeIn their first (real) purposeful bonus episodelet, Brett and Rob discuss and respond to the recent terror attacks in Europe. They explain how both the left and right want to violate the NAP and bring a whole host of the same type of economic migrants that are causing trouble in Europe to the United States. They have their own reasons for doing such, and the guys discuss these reasons. Nothing good can come out of it.2017-08-2410 min
Half-Hour Liberty HourEpisode 018 - Two Cows & Pure DemocracyIt's been a while since Brett and Rob dusted off the ol' Two Cows joke, so here's another discussion using the joke. In this alcohol-fueled episode, the Dynamically Drunken Duo revisit it, but they focus on the mythical wonderfulness of Pure Democracy. Listen as Brett and Rob smack around Pure Democracy and unmask it for what it truly is (hint: it is very close to another form of governance that rhymes with "Bocialism").

Half-Hour Liberty HourBonus Episodelet 008 - What Was Once New Is New AgainIn this Bonus Episodelet, trimmed for content from Episode 014 - Liberty Definitions, Brett and Rob got sidetracked when talking about negative vs. positive rights.

Half-Hour Liberty HourEpisode 016 - Why We're DifferentThis is a very different episode from what the listeners of Half-Hour Liberty Hour are accustomed to. This is partially why it is being released on Sunday instead of the usual Friday release schedule. In this episode, Brett and Rob lay aside most of the philosophical discussions of liberty and focus on what it is that makes Half-Hour Liberty Hour different. In a world full of liberty podcasts, you have many choices. So what is it that makes Half-Hour Liberty Hour different from those other podcasts? Have a listen and you will see.

Half-Hour Liberty HourEpisode 015 - Go Home, Oregon Legislature. You're Drunk.Rob is back from vacation, so the Dynamically Drunken Duo were able to record a new episode. Today, Brett and Rob discuss the $3.8 billion boondoggle of a tax plan the Oregon Legislature has passed in order to "fund" repairs to the Oregon highway system. They talk about the new taxes that are being levied (including a first-ever partial sales tax against the will of the people), tolling of the bridges and the Interstates in Portland, and how the Legislature will probably stay true to form and blow the money on other projects that the government wants to spend the...2017-07-2133 min
Half-Hour Liberty HourBonus Episodelet 007 - Executive Action = Less Liberty For YouThis bonus episodelet is a bit that was cut for time and subject matter from Episode 013 - Who Would Our Presidential Cabinet Be? In it, Brett and Rob talk about executive actions and other overreach by executive-branch created government agencies with the implication that their actions add up to less liberty for all. It did not fit with the flow of that episode, but it gives insight into why the Dynamically Drunken Duo chose to only have the original five Cabinet positions if they were president.
