Episode 109: Capitalism; an interview with Walter Block and Brad Spangler
In this episode of Voice of Radical Dissent, Corey interviewed Dr. Walter Block, a free market economist and professor of economics from Loyola University in New Orleans, who is also a senior fellow of the Ludwig von Mises Institute and has written many books on Austrian Economics including Defending the Undefendable and
The Privatization of Roads and Highways: Human and Economic Factors. Also on the show is Brad Spangler, the president of the Center for a Stateless society and an outspokent anarchist who writes a popular blog of left-libertarian thought at bradspangler.com. This episode we discussed the role of the word “capitalism” in the libertarian movement. Unfortunately the interview got cut short due to issues with my Skype account and the sound quality wasn’t too great due to other technical issues.

This was fabulous, and thanks for making it happen. I’d be delighted to see you bring Brad and Walter together again for a rematch.
I’d suggest in doing so that none of your guests be able to speak continuously for more than five minutes. Yes, some ideas are big, but you can create a better communications vehicle by controlling the medium a bit more strictly.
Peace, a3
