In this week's flagship Lions of Liberty podcast, Marc is joined by two libertarian activists who have been closely connected to Latin American to bring their perspective on the liberty movement in that region: Maria Alejandra Londono - Director of Movimiento Libertario of Latin America - as well as returning guest Dr. Kyle Varner, who has helped to provide medical aid for refugees from Venezuela in Colombia. They give their perspective on the situation in Venezuela, the disputed legitimacy of Nicholas Maduro's rule, and what they have learned from interacting with Venezuelans.
