Ep 72 - Raging about Ukraine?
Welcome to the show. Today’s episode will mostly deal with geopolitics and Ukraine. If you’re waiting for the culmination of ‘The Post Libertarian Moment defined” I will cover the last 3 sections of the essay in a separate episode. Before we get too far into things, if you’re reading this, make sure you’ve checked out Substack’s new app for iPhone.
After much consideration I’ve decided to keep Substack my online “home” for another year. While I appreciate my readers and listeners, when you become a Patron, you make it easier for me to dedicate my time doing the thing I love, making sense of the world just for you.

ep 71 from quarks to Consciousness w/ Josiah
Hey, welcome to the show
*programming note*
You’ll notice there isn’t a snappy intro to this video like prior interviews. I really enjoy making them, but I can’t fit it into my production time anymore. There are too many things I want to cover! So from now on I’ll open interviews solo and bring the guest in (like every other podcast you listen to).
I haven’t released a solo episode, but I’ve recently sat down with a few other podcasters you should definitely check them out.
Currently available are my recent appearances on Blackbird with James Jenneman, On The Run with Remso Martinez, and Counterflow with Buck Johnson. Soon to be released is an interview with Carlos Abelar’s show Los Libertinos back to today’s conversation.
I recently sat down with Josiah who goes by @sodokupolitburo on Twitter. One of the reasons I started a podcast was to explore ideas, how people think fascinates me, especially when someone comes at it from an unorthodox place.
I don’t think I do a disservice Josiah when I say he has incredible instincts for how systems come together, but how he gets there won’t be familiar to most people.
This is an interview you’ll want to listen to closely.
The beginning of the conversation is a download of Josiah’s perspective, you’ll hear me try to put the pieces together, acting as a “midwife of ideas” as Socrates was fond of saying. And we end as always somewhere interesting.
This is the philosophy part of the news, mindset, and philosophy I cover at BeenAwake.com

Ep 70 - Moral narratives and political theater
Today’s episode will be a twitter sandwich, we’ll start with some rapid fire tweets I sent out since the last episode and end with some more. In the middle will be a discussion from my essay “The Post-Libertarian Moment Defined” where I’ll discuss what it is and why it happened. Most importantly though, we’re going to be examining the recent exchange between Dr. Anthony Fauci and Senator Dr. Rand Paul during a Senate committee hearing. There’s an important unexplored angle to the exchange other podcasters aren’t covering.
Honestly the show could end up being completely different than that. I’ve started writing my descriptions before I do the episode. Just another reason to listen and see what we talk about!
