Description

On this week's Ep, I've got a very special Guest.


Scott Horton, one of the world's most vocal and hard working Libertarians and anti-war authors.




He joined me to speak about why and how foreign policy is the most important aspect of a presidency or nation state’s impact. 


How a monopoly on violence gives the state the power of an empire.



  • Why wars so enticing for a state.

  • Is modern warfare different to medieval & ancient warfare? Why?

  • How did we get here? What went wrong along the way?

  • The constant state of emergency

  • Does he think what’s happened in the last 14mths (globalist agenda) is in some ways retribution for America’s meddling in everyone’s shit?

  • If we were more localised, would these kinds of wars or conflicts be as much of a reality?

  • When is War necessary?


One of the resources that Scott Mentioned was a series of works by Garet Garrett:


- The revolution that was


- Ex America


- Rise of Empire
