Podcasts about Adam Smith

En mayo de 1734 se produjo un incendio en una casa del barrio londinense de Mayfair. Entre los escombros apareció un cuerpo calcinado hasta tal punto que era irreconocible. La justicia concluyó que era el dueño de la casa, un banquero irlandés retirado llamado Richard Cantillon, pero el caso no cuadraba. El fuego se había declarado en la habitación en la que guardaba sus papeles, los criados sobrevivieron todos y meses después desembarcó en Surinam un tal señor Savigni con documentos personales del difunto. La sospecha de que Cantillon fingiese su propia muerte para librarse de pleitos y acreedores no ha sido demostrada, pero tampoco descartada. Cuarenta años antes otro cadáver dio origen a la carrera del segundo protagonista. En 1694 el escocés John Law mató en duelo a Edward Wilson en Londres, fue condenado a muerte por asesinato, se fugó de prisión y se estableció en el continente. Law, hijo de un orfebre de Edimburgo, creció viendo cómo los recibos de depósito de su padre circulaban como si fueran oro, a partir de ahí dedujo que el dinero no vale por sí mismo, sino por la confianza que inspira. Durante veinte años vivió del cálculo de probabilidades apostando en timbas de naipes por toda Europa mientras estudiaba el funcionamiento del Wisselbank de Ámsterdam y del recién nacido Banco de Inglaterra. En 1705 propuso que se crease un gran banco nacional emisor de papel moneda. En Escocia e Italia rechazaron la idea, pero no en Francia, donde encontró un terreno fértil. Cantillon pertenecía a la nobleza católica irlandesa arruinada por las confiscaciones. Aprendió la lección contraria, solo es seguro el patrimonio que se puede mover rápido. Pasó por varias ciudades comerciales como Burdeos, Nantes y Cádiz y fue el primero en dar naturaleza económica al término empresario. Un empresario era para Cantillon todo aquel que compra a precios ciertos para vender a precios inciertos, luego, soportando esa incertidumbre, ajusta la producción a la demanda sin que nadie lo dirija. Esta es la primera descripción funcional del mercado medio siglo antes de Adam Smith. Francia puso el escenario a ambos. Luis XIV murió en 1715 dejando una deuda gigantesca que ahogaba al Tesoro. El regente, Felipe de Orleans, dio vía libre a Law, a quien conocía de las partidas de cartas. En 1716 fundó la Banque Générale, que compraba deuda incobrable del Tesoro y emitía dinero contra ella. Durante dos años funcionó realmente bien. En 1717 creó la Compañía de Occidente sobre el monopolio de la colonia de Luisiana. Más tarde fue absorbiendo el comercio exterior, la recaudación de impuestos, ciertos monopolios como el del tabaco y la Casa de la Moneda. El circuito se terminó cerrando en un bucle diabólico. El banco imprimía billetes, los billetes compraban acciones y las acciones sostenían la deuda. El precio de las acciones se disparó convirtiendo a muchos parisinos en millonarios de la noche a la mañana. El regente le premio nombrándole controlador general de Finanzas. Cantillon también estaba en París en esa misma época y participaba del esquema de Law, pero desde dentro. Prestaba a nobles para comprar acciones y se quedaba los títulos en prenda hasta que, llegado un momento, los vendió cerca del máximo y exigió el cobro en metálico. Salió de Francia con más de 20 millones de libras y apostó contra los mismos billetes que le habían hecho rico. Años más tarde explicó por qué lo hizo. Sabía que el dinero nuevo no sube todos los precios a la vez, beneficia a quien lo recibe primero y perjudica a todos los demás. A eso en economía se le conoce como efecto Cantillon. El sistema saltó por los aires en 1720 dejando la ruina tras de sí. Law consiguió huir, trató de convencer a otros soberanos para que hiciesen lo mismo, pero nadie confiaba en él. Murió pobre en Venecia en 1729 solo cinco años antes de que Cantillon desapareciese en Londres. El primero tuvo un humilde entierro en una iglesia veneciana, del segundo nunca más se supo. Para profundizar en estas dos fascinantes historias nos acompaña Marta Caniego, que las conoce bien porque las ha tratado en Relatos de la Historia.

Matthew 12:1–21 | Adam Smith

We're not home, but we're never outside God's reach and we have a story to tell. Reality Carpinteria pastor Adam Smith continues our summer series in the Psalms with a sermon from Psalm 107.

Following the launch of the Cherries' new third kit, fans have been debating more than just THAT sponsor. The use of Bournemouth's alternative retro-style crest has led some supporters to question whether the club could be preparing to move away from the familiar Dickie Dowsett shield badge. But is there really anything to worry about? Or is this simply AFCB following a growing Premier League trend of using alternative crests and “dual branding” on kits and merchandise? We take a deep dive into the debate and ask whether the club could really be changing its identity. Head to https://www.beer52.com/NET and cover the postage to secure your free case of beer

On Wednesday's Mark Levin Show, the difference between the Democratic Party and the Democratic Socialists of America is not significant—the DSA is the logical extension of the Democrat Party, which has birthed it and remains sympathetic to its core aims; most Democrats are comfortable with DSA figures in Congress, state legislatures, and governorships. This agenda of fundamentally altering constitutional structure and the economic system has defined the party since Woodrow Wilson, even if Democrats refuse the labels communist or Marxist and prefer softer rhetoric. Later, more billionaires would benefit the country because they create and spread enormous wealth rather than hoarding it, with capitalism redistributing prosperity through markets and supply-demand rather than failed top-down control driven by non-economic motives. More billionaires mean more capital, investment, jobs, incomes, pensions, medical care, and tax revenue; this is why Gov Ron DeSantis invites them to Florida to fuel construction, load banks with cash that is then lent out, and circulate money through the economy. Critics fail to grasp this due to jealousy, fearmongering, and preference for centralized power, yet the more billionaires exist, the more wealth and jobs are generated for more people, as even non-business wealth gets invested in banks, stocks, loans, and enterprises that support small businesses and employment. Afterward, ignoring Hayek, Friedman, Sowell, free-market economics, and individual liberty amounts to becoming Democrat Party light. True common good rests solely on the principles of the Declaration of Independence and the Enlightenment, with no connection to economic intervention; the intellectual foundation remains figures like Buckley, de Tocqueville, Adam Smith, Burke, and Locke, not online or TikTok content. Finally, the federal budget deficit is on track to surpass $2 trillion this fiscal year as spending outpaces revenue. Tax revenues increase by $139 billion, but spending increased by $308 billion. Increased spending driven by entitlement programs: Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid, in addition to servicing the national debt. Even with a 5-8% increase in revenue, the government can't stop spending money. And Democrats complain we're not spending enough! Democrats would destroy private health insurance and Medicare would collapse. The worry: economic turmoil leads to social turmoil. Learn more about your ad choices.

Le temps où les plateformes de streaming permettaient de multiplier les abonnements sans trop regarder son compte bancaire semble déjà loin. Lorsque Netflix est arrivé en France, en 2014, son offre Premium coûtait 11,99 euros par mois. Elle est aujourd'hui facturée 21,99 euros. Face à cette inflation, de nombreux utilisateurs font désormais le tri et résilient les services qu'ils utilisent le moins. Pour limiter cette érosion et résister aux plateformes gratuites comme YouTube, les géants du streaming réfléchissent donc à de nouvelles stratégies. Netflix envisage notamment de réintroduire une période d'essai gratuite, supprimée en 2020. Disney pourrait aller beaucoup plus loin : proposer un accès à Disney+ pour zéro euro.L'hypothèse avait déjà été évoquée en juillet par Adam Smith, directeur des produits et des technologies chez Disney. Elle vient désormais d'être confirmée au plus haut niveau. Lors de la présentation des résultats du troisième trimestre 2026, le 5 août, le patron du groupe, Josh D'Amaro, a expliqué qu'aucune formule précise n'était encore arrêtée, mais qu'un abonnement gratuit constituait « sans aucun doute une option ». L'objectif serait évidemment d'attirer une nouvelle catégorie d'utilisateurs, notamment ceux qui considèrent aujourd'hui le prix comme un frein à l'abonnement. Pour Disney+, la gratuité deviendrait ainsi un moyen d'élargir son audience et de relancer sa croissance.Reste à savoir ce qu'une telle formule proposerait réellement. L'accès au catalogue pourrait être restreint. La définition de l'image pourrait également être limitée. Et surtout, la publicité occuperait probablement une place centrale pour financer le service. Disney+ propose déjà une offre Standard avec publicité à 6,99 euros par mois : une formule totalement gratuite devrait logiquement contenir davantage de coupures commerciales ou imposer d'autres restrictions.Pour l'instant, rien n'est donc décidé. Mais l'idée marque peut-être un changement important dans l'économie du streaming. Après des années de hausses tarifaires et de multiplication des abonnements, les plateformes pourraient commencer à miser davantage sur la gratuité financée par la publicité. Si Disney franchit le pas et rencontre son public, ses concurrents devront probablement répondre. Et cette fois, la bataille du streaming pourrait enfin profiter au portefeuille des abonnés.

Matthew 11:2–19 | Adam Smith

Adam Smith thought he'd found brotherhood. Instead, he found addiction, violence, prison and a contract on his life. In this powerful interview with Neil "The Muscle" Cummins, Adam reveals what life inside outlaw motorcycle clubs is really like, why prison changed him forever, and why he's now dedicating his life to helping others avoid the same path. If you've ever wondered what happens behind the patches, this is the story you need to hear.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

KGMI's Adam Smith and Dianna Hawryluk chat about the Skagit County Fair, A Community Festival in Ferndale, Radical Root MTB hosting mountain biking classes, The Princess Bride at Fairhaven Outdoor Cinema, and a punk show at the Shakedown.

Why is socialism suddenly becoming popular again in America—and what are the real consequences if it succeeds? In this episode of The Tudor Dixon Podcast, Tudor sits down with Dr. Anne Bradley, professor of economics at the Institute of World Politics and Vice President of Academic Affairs at The Fund for American Studies, to examine the resurgence of democratic socialism and why so many young Americans are embracing it. The conversation explores why "free" government programs have become politically appealing, how envy and economic frustration fuel socialist movements, and why history repeatedly shows socialism leading to economic failure and government control. Tudor and Dr. Bradley also discuss the rise of crony capitalism, corporate welfare, regulatory barriers facing small businesses, and how government favoritism undermines entrepreneurship and opportunity. Drawing from history, economics, and Tudor's own experience running for governor of Michigan, they explain the difference between free-market capitalism and government-controlled economies—and why protecting opportunity matters more than ever.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

At the halfway point of the season, Karin Svensson and Adam Smith reflect on what they have learned from conversations with Nobel Prize laureates and why there is no single mould for a successful scientist. They discuss the challenge of explaining complex ideas, the importance of embracing uncertainty and the sense of wonder that drives discovery. They also provide a sneak peek of the conversations to come: quantum physics, artificial intelligence, and literature.

On this episode of the Hayek Program Podcast, Peter Boettke sits down with Kristen Collins for a wide-ranging conversation on Adam Smith's moral philosophy and its intersection with theories of justice, sympathy, and political power. The conversation moves through the relationship between sympathy, moral imagination, and the origins of our sense of justice, drawing on Michelle Schwarze's work on sympathetic resentment, before turning to why economists have historically misread Smith as indifferent to the poor and powerless — despite Smith's own repeated siding with the weak against the powerful. Boettke and Collins also explore Smith's "man of system" passages as a caution against imposing utopian visions by force, discuss Judith Shklar's "liberalism of fear" in relation to Hayek, and close with an extended look at Collins's research on Jeremy Bentham's little-known Sotomion — a proposed institution designed to protect unmarried pregnant women from social shame while preserving their social connections, offering a striking counterpoint to Bentham's more famous Panopticon.Dr. Kristen Collins is a Senior Fellow with the F.A.

John Tamny, author of The Money John Tamny, author of The Money Confusion: How a Literacy About Currencies and Inflation Sets the Stage for the Crypto Revolution, provides an unconventional analysis of money, arguing that its only purpose is to circulate consumable goods as a product of specialized labor. Drawing on Adam Smith's principles, he asserts that wealth is created through the division of labor and that money is simply an agreement about value between producers. Tamny contends that current fears of "inflation" are misguided; he defines real inflation as a deliberate devaluation of currency by policy choice, such as the 1971 delinking of the dollar from gold. The book argues that the high prices seen after 2020 were caused by the economic destruction of lockdowns, not an excess of money. Tamny is highly critical of the Federal Reserve, claiming it has no real power over growth or interest rates for startups, as true credit always finds talent regardless of central bank fiddling. He uses Elon Musk as a recurring example of an innovator whose success in companies like PayPal and SpaceX was driven by venture capital and risk-takers rather than traditional banks. Tamny envisions a crypto revolution where private, stable money replaces failed government currencies. He suggests that the recent volatility in crypto is a healthy "shaking out" of the market, paving the way for mature, information-based money systems. He speculates that Musk may eventually use Twitter to launch a global, stable cryptocurrency, finally fulfilling the vision of a "global financial supermarket."

On today episode of True-Blue Conversations, I am joined by Adam Smith, a veteran of the 2nd Commando Regiment and the Victoria Police Special Operations Group. Adam joined the Australian Army in 2005 and was posted to the 2nd Battalion, Royal Australian Regiment (2RAR). During his time with 2RAR, he deployed twice to East Timor before successfully attempting and completing selection for the 2nd Commando Regiment in 2008. After completing the demanding Reinforcement Cycle, he earned the coveted Sherwood Green beret. Throughout his Special Forces career, Adam deployed on multiple Special Operations Task Group (SOTG) rotations to Afghanistan and Iraq and served on Tactical Assault Group EAST ( TAG- EAST). He shares his firsthand experiences of modern warfare, including being on the ground in Afghanistan in 2011 when his mentor and friend, Brett Wood, MG DSM, was killed in action. Adam opens up about the raw emotion of losing a close mate in combat and reflects on the deaths of fellow Special Forces operators Todd Langley and Sapper Rowan Robinson, and the lasting impact those losses have had on him and those who served alongside them. Adam also speaks candidly about the tragic training accident in 2014 during an extreme Alpine climate exercise that claimed the life of one of his fellow commandos. He discusses the invisible wounds of service, his battle with PTSD, and the true cost that war and military service can have on those who answer the call. Following his military career, Adam laterally transferred to Victoria Police and, after graduating from the academy, went directly into the elite Special Operations Group. Even after discharging from full-time service, he continued serving Australia as a member of the 1st Commando Regiment, Australia Army Reserve Special Forces capability, based in Melbourne. This is a raw, powerful and deeply honest conversation about sacrifice, resilience, grief, mateship, and the realities of life as an elite Australian Special Forces & Victoria Police Special Operations Group Operator.

Arthur Herman explains the American founders were heavily influenced by the Scottish Enlightenment, particularly the ideas of David Hume and Adam Smith regarding the pursuit of happiness. This subjective right was prioritized over property to potentially allow for the future abolition of slavery. The founding spirit extended to the Northwest Ordinance, creating communities like Marietta, Ohio, that were dedicated to education, religion, and freedom. (10)1738

C Constable reports from France on the high heat and smoke impact near Bordeaux. The discussion shifts to surging energy prices, with Brent crude rising 26% and European gas up 36%. Despite high energy costs, rising copper prices suggest potential industrial growth. (1)Simon Constable and Jim McTague continue with a quiz highlighting that typical data centers use 300,000 gallons of water daily, while larger ones can reach 5 million gallons. Currently, most centers are urban, but 67% of planned facilities are rural. In Lancaster County, a "tale of two data centers" emerges as one town embraces the revenue stream while another resists it due to misinformation and fear. (2)Cliff May argues for maximum pressure and coercive diplomacy to prevent the Islamic Republic of Iran from obtaining nuclear weapons. He advocates for a naval blockade, specifically targeting oil exports from Kharg Island to strangle the regime's revenue. May emphasizes that the Iranian leadership's ideology makes them likely to use nuclear weapons, necessitating a strategy to cripple the regime's power. (3)John Hardie and Bill Roggio cover the significant leadership change in Ukraine as General Drapatyi replaces General Syrskyi as commander-in-chief. Drapatyi is seen as a representative of a new, western-style generation of officers who embrace technological innovation and listen to subordinates. The transition aims to "desovietize" the military and maintain the momentum of successful drone offensives against Russian infrastructure. (4)Anatol Lieven examines how the Ukraine and Iran conflicts are merging into one global struggle following a Ukrainiandrone strike on an Iranian vessel. This escalation threatens global energy supplies of refined oil products, as Russianrefineries struggle with capacity. While Ukraine targets the Russian middle class to undermine support for the war, Lieven warns of a widening proxy war involving China, North Korea, and Iran. (5)Anatol Lieven turns to Britain's new political era under Prime Minister Andy Burnham, who is described as the Labour Party's "last chance" to address a discredited government. Burnham faces immense financial pressure, particularly regarding the costs of healthcare for the elderly and dementia. To succeed, he may need to pivot from "Net Zero" policies to prioritize energy needs and seek a new mandate through an election. (6)Salvatore Vitale and Kalin Plunkett of MIT explain hierarchical merging, a process where black holes merge repeatedly to create larger "monsters." By analyzing gravitational waves from 155 binary pairs, they discovered that 14% are second-generation black holes, born from previous mergers rather than stellar collapse. These second-generation black holes are characterized by rapid spin and mass asymmetry, providing clues to how supermassive black holes form in galaxies. (7)Salvatore Vitale and Kalin Plunkett continue: to uncover the origins of the Milky Way's supermassive black hole, scientists propose building larger gravitational wave detectors scaled up by a factor of ten. These advanced observatories would allow researchers to peer further back into cosmic history, potentially detecting black holes from the very early universe. Expanding the global network to four or five detectors would help pinpoint host galaxies and detect the formation of heavy elements. (8)Arthur Herman recounts the historic 1896 meeting where Henry Ford pitched his internal combustion engine to a skeptical Thomas Edison. Edison's encouragement served as the catalyst for Ford's revolution in American transportation. This industrial transformation was further enabled by John D. Rockefeller, whose ability to lower oil prices made gasoline an economically feasible fuel for mass production. The segment also highlights George Washington's vision for a professional Continental Army. (9)Arthur Herman explains the American founders were heavily influenced by the Scottish Enlightenment, particularly the ideas of David Hume and Adam Smith regarding the pursuit of happiness. This subjective right was prioritized over property to potentially allow for the future abolition of slavery. The founding spirit extended to the Northwest Ordinance, creating communities like Marietta, Ohio, that were dedicated to education, religion, and freedom. (10)Arthur Herman characterizes Abraham Lincoln as a founder for his vision of an America without slavery and his willingness to risk the Union to fulfill the Declaration of Independence. His administration's legacy includes the Homestead Act and the Transcontinental Railroad, which expanded the "empire of liberty." Additionally, the Civil War era facilitated the rise of Andrew Carnegie, who later revolutionized the global steel industry using the Bessemerprocess. (11)Arthur Herman reframes the Gilded Age not as an era of greed, but as a period of unprecedented opportunity and connectivity driven by the railroad. James J. Hill's Great Northern Railway fostered regional prosperity and negotiated fairly with Native American tribes. Meanwhile, Thomas Edison's relentless competitiveness and "restless mind" led to the electrification of the nation and the invention of the phonograph, inspiring future generations of founders like Elon Musk. (12)Arthur Herman contrasts Woodrow Wilson's attempt to centrally manage industry during World War I, which resulted in logistical chaos and failure, with FDR's embrace of the private sector for World War II, appointing GM's Bill Knudsento lead mobilization. By relying on the incentives of the marketplace, Knudsen successfully converted American manufacturing into a massive war machine, producing more war material than the world imagined in just 18 months. (13)Arthur Herman presents Martin Luther King Jr. as a founder who refounded the American experiment by taking risks to fulfill the promise of equality. The segment explores the eternal conflict between the bold "founder mindset" and the cautious "manager instinct" that emerged in the 1950s. While managers seek stability and predictability, founders drive innovation and national greatness, preventing the American dream from becoming stagnant and stale. (14)Arthur Herman credits Vannevar Bush's "The Endless Frontier" manifesto with persuading FDR to fund basic scientific research through universities, laying the groundwork for Silicon Valley. This federal support enabled discoveries in information theory and microchip development, transforming the American economy. The evolution from massive mainframes like the IBM 360 to modern microchips illustrates the imaginative leap of founders who see opportunities where others see only current technology. (15)Arthur Herman concludes that today's founders, including Elon Musk and Donald Trump, continue the tradition of taking massive risks to fulfill bold visions. Musk's goals for SpaceX and Mars are described as a step-by-step process of industrial manufacturing and innovation. Central to this enduring success is the Patent Act of 1790, a unique constitutional protection that ensures individuals own the products of their minds, fueling 250 years of American discovery. (16)Corrections applied per the log: John Hardie (transcribed as "Hardy," segment 4) and Labour Party (UK spelling, segment 6). I also dropped the phonetic "(Chopati)" after General Drapatyi in segment 4 — that's Mykhailo Drapatyi, so the first spelling stands. One to confirm for the log: Kalin Plunkett (segments 7–8) — I couldn't verify this MIT researcher's spelling; if it's from audio, it may need checking against the MIT LIGO group roster.

KGMI's Adam Smith and Dianna Hawryluk chat about the Ferndale Block Party, the Birch Bay Sand Sculpture Competition, the Acid Ball Psych Rock Festival, and Automatic performing at the Shakedown.

The Republican Party is often associated with free-market fundamentalism, deregulation, and tax cuts. But a new faction on the right is challenging that consensus. In this episode, Bethany and Luigi sit down with Chris Griswold, the Policy Director at American Compass. Drawing on Catholic social teaching, Griswold argues that we need to stop viewing our economy as a force of nature or an end unto itself, but a tool meant to serve human flourishing and dignity.  The conversation explores if the traditional neoliberal regime has failed working-class Americans, and whether policy should step in to channel capital toward productive uses. To fix our current system, Griswold argues we need to go back to a first-principles question: What is capitalism, or any economy for that matter, actually for? Connect with us:

Gavin Newsom accuses Trump of trying to rig the 2026 midterms. But even without Trump's most explosive claims, serious questions remain: outdated voter rolls, weak ID verification, ballot harvesting, foreign vulnerabilities, and a Congress that refuses to fix any of it. Then Hasan Piker calls Mao Zedong one of history's greatest leaders, ignoring the tens of millions who died under his regime — and Jillian asks whether that says more about him, or about the DSA's real agenda. Van Jones rips into the far-left agenda consuming the Democratic Party. Jillian dismantles the idea that MAGA and the DSA are equivalent.  Plus, Rep. Adam Smith admits threats, vandalism, and political intimidation shaped his vote on Israel. Are establishment Democrats confronting the radical wing inside their own party, or surrendering to it?

On this episode of the Hayek Program Podcast, Peter Boettke sits down with Don Boudreaux to mark the 250th anniversary of Adam Smith's An Inquiry into the Nature and Causes of the Wealth of Nations. Boudreaux reflects on his many years teaching a graduate seminar on Smith at George Mason University, the layers of insight he continues to discover on each re-read, and why so few professional economists ever read the book cover to cover despite its enduring relevance to questions of monopoly power, trade, taxation, and public debt. The conversation traces the relationship between The Wealth of Nations and Smith's earlier The Theory of Moral Sentiments, dismantling the old "Adam Smith Problem" and explaining why markets need both bourgeois virtue and hard institutional discipline to function. Boudreaux and Boettke also celebrate George Mason's distinctive culture as a "books department" shaped by mentors such as Roger Garrison, Walter Williams, and James Buchanan. Dr. Donald J. Boudreaux is a Senior Fellow with the F.A. Hayek Program for Advanced Study in Philosophy, Politics, and Economics at the Mercatus Center at George Mason University and a Professor of Economics and former economics-department chair at George Mason University. He is the author of many books, including The Triumph of Economic Freedom: Debunking the Seven Great Myths of American Capitalism (Rowman & Littlefield, 2025), The Essential Hayek (Fraser Institute, 2015), Hypocrites and Half-Wits: A Daily Dose of Sanity from Cafe Hayek (Free to Choose Press, 2012), and Globalization (Greenwood Press, 2007).**This episode was recorded on May 28, 2026**Show Notes:Adam Smith, An Inquiry into the Nature and Causes of the Wealth of Nations (Liberty Fund, 1982)Adam Smith, The Theory of Moral Sentiments (Liberty Fund, 1982)David Hume, A Treatise of Human Nature (Liberty Fund, 1896)John Maynard Keynes, The General Theory Of Employment, Interest, And Money (Harper Collins, 1965)James M.
