Ep. 2190 How to Reach the Normies, with Doc Dixon
Over the past few years I've been thrilled to see Doc Dixon's star begin to rise within the libertarian world. He's a solid libertarian in our tradition, and an extremely talented magician, who fooled Penn and Teller on their "Fool Us" television program. Today we talk a bit about magic and a bit about libertarianism, and how we might do a better job reaching the normies.
