He even spoke the heresy that corporations are not part of Free Market Capitalism. :o
I remember enjoying that podcast in back when it was recorded. Molyneux has some decent interviews and videos where he gives a unique angle on a subject, but the more you see/hear/read from him, the more creepy shit you find out. Basically running a private subscription based radio show and forum, where he and his wife have ended up counselling some of members to cut off contact with their family, and join the Molyneux internet family, over really silly things.

This is my favorite at the moment. I don't really like opinion driven podcasts.

The recent one about the Gin Craze is a good place to start.

Titus Oates and the Popish Plot (kind of a red scare, but for Catholics)

Foxe's Book of Martyrs (more stuff with people killing each other over religion)

http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b00vy2dd


I don't like the science ones much, and dislike the ones where they discuss some broad concept like "love" even more.
Make sure to check if you can access the category specific feeds on your podcast app.

In Our Time: Culture/History/Philosophy/Religion/Science

The episodes go all the way back to 1998 on those ones.

Which ones am I missing? And when is Decline coming back?

No clue about Decline. Darryl finished a new Martyr Made recently, and I'd bet lining up the schedules between him and John isn't very easy...

Hopefully they continue though, it was certainly a unique discussion, although quite a lot of jargon at times (references to authors, theories, books as shorthand).

Arguably my favorite feature. It's nice having some of my more fringe ideals backed up in literature.

Every month or so I give Molyneux a chance but his videos are too damn long & he's not as cute as he thinks he is. He embodies all that is creepy about Libertarianism but his perspectives often enforce my own, so until he goes completely off the reservation, I'll occasionally give him my ear.

I have been considering converting his videos to audio because his video format is just horrible. I agree with your critiques of his presentation. Sliced bread he is not.

He used to be an actor so bear that in mind. I don't care for what little I've seen of him; too changeable, but occasionally he speaks on a point I agree with right before he smashes it with the narrative I'm sick and tired of.

Yeah, I can't do a half hour video.

At that length it needs to be audio so I can ingest while driving or in text form so I can read it.

Reading is the still the most effective way of learning IMO
