What the Advent of Radio Can Teach Us About Tech Regulation | Paul Matzko
Last week, the Supreme Court heard arguments challenging Section 230, which gives tech companies immunity from content posted on their platforms. At the core of the debate is whether the government should take a more active role in policing how tech platforms moderate content. In the 1920s, America was in the midst of a similar debate as the radio gained rapid adoption and gave Americans access to an unprecedented variety of information over the airwaves. In this episode, Paul Matzko, historian and research fellow at the Cato Institute discusses the parallels between the current debate over...

Debt, Austerity, and the Decline of a Global Superpower | Ben Studebaker
In the 19th century, Great Britain found itself saddled with debt after funding the Napoleonic Wars in continental Europe. In this episode, Ben Studebaker and Dan revisit how austerity measures taken by the British government ultimately led to its decline as a world power, how falling into the trap of "sensible spending" often forgoes investments for the future, and how the United States could fall into the same trap.

The Economic Fallout of the Debt Ceiling Debate | Marc Goldwein
Last week, Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen announced the federal government would hit the debt ceiling limit sooner than expected, and "extraordinary measures" would need to be taken to keep the government functioning.

Nationalism, Race, and American Party Politics | Leonie Huddy
Since the election of Donald Trump in 2016, a party once based on free markets and multilateralism pivoted to a more nationalistic approach to immigration, trade, and military alliances. In this episode, Leonie Huddy discusses how - despite the fact nationalist sentiment has declined in the US over the last 20 years - a mix of political opportunism and economic conditions have led to the adoption of nationalist policies by the GOP.

Nuclear Power: The Accidental Death of a Zero Carbon Energy Source | Mark Nelson
Almost 80 years ago, the world discovered a carbon-free way to generate vast amounts of energy via nuclear power. While it remains the most reliable source of zero-carbon electricity, it's barely mentioned in conversations around combatting climate change. In this episode, Mark Nelson of Radiant Energy Group discusses how a mix of market forces, government interventions, and resistance from the environmental movement stopped nuclear's rise, and how current government interventions in the energy market continue to work against nuclear energy while simultaneously reinforcing our dependence on fossil fuels.

REBROADCAST: Removing Donald Trump from Twitter and The Red Scare | Ben Studebaker
The removal of Donald Trump and other prominent conservatives from social media platforms prompted cries of censorship from the right. Elon Musk's decision to reinstate these figures on Twitter has prompted similar pushback from the left. In this episode (originally published in August of 2021) Ben Studebaker discusses the parallels between the current debate over speech on tech platforms and what America saw during the Red Scare, and how our reaction to Americans embracing controversial ideology is to suppress the ideas, rather than address the issues that led people to embrace them in the first place. ...
