On this latest episode of the Positive Enterprise Value Podcast, I am thrilled to welcome my good friend Jay Lapeyre. Jay is the second-generation Entrepreneur Owner-Manager (“EOM”) of Laitram LLC. Laitram is based in the New Orleans area but operates worldwide with over 4,000 employees. Jay's dad was a consummate entrepreneur who, with more than 200 patents to his name, invented a number of innovations involved in the material handling business, mostly having to do with food, which was the basis for starting Laitram. Following in his Dad's footsteps, under Jay's leadership, Laitram grew worldwide, and is now one of the most successful and widely known innovators in the material movement business, responsible for inventing the plastic interlocking conveyor belt. Jay is a Renaissance man, where in addition to being a husband and a father of three, he holds a BA from the University of Texas as well as an MBA and a JD degree from Tulane University. I'm not sure Jay ever practiced as an attorney, but he certainly has the very ordered thinking and discipline that perhaps some people gain from studying law. My interview with Jay covers a bit of the background of Laitram, some of Jay's interest in developing the whole business, including in particular the human capital aspect: the employees, the management team, the customers, the other constituents around the world, as well as his interest in the community where he is the Chairman of the Board of the Cato Institute, along with The Atlas Society. I loved being with Jay on this interview, as well as spending a half a day on board my boat on the Atlantic Ocean together when it was blowing up pretty hard and we got to see who had a sense of humor after they got a little wet, a little cold, and a little tired. So, without further ado, join me in listening to this fascinating discussion with Jay Lapeyre of Laitram LLC.

In this enlightening episode of "The Rational Egoist," host Michael Liebowitz welcomes esteemed guest Professor Stephen Hicks, a distinguished figure in the realm of philosophy and a vanguard in the critique of postmodernism. Professor Hicks, who serves as a beacon of knowledge at Rockford University and holds prestigious positions as the Executive Director of The Center for Ethics and Entrepreneurship and a Senior Scholar at The Atlas Society, brings a wealth of insight into the ideological underpinnings that shape our society. As the author of the groundbreaking work, "Explaining Postmodernism: Skepticism and Socialism from Rousseau to Foucault," Professor Hicks embarks on a deep dive with Michael into the labyrinth of postmodern thought, dissecting its origins, principles, and the significant impact it has had on political, cultural, and educational landscapes. The conversation navigates the challenging terrain of skepticism and socialism, tracing their evolution from the ideas of Rousseau to the complex theories of Foucault, and examining the profound implications these philosophies have for individual rights, freedom, and the pursuit of truth in our contemporary world. Listeners will be treated to a masterclass on the contrast between postmodernism's relativistic approach to knowledge and morality, and the principled stance of rational egoism that champions reason, individualism, and objective reality. Through a series of engaging discussions, Michael and Professor Hicks illuminate the path towards understanding the stakes of accepting or rejecting postmodernist claims, offering a clarion call for intellectual integrity and the valorization of the individual's capacity to understand the world through reason. This episode is a must-listen for anyone invested in the battle of ideas shaping our era, providing not only a critique of postmodernism but also a celebration of the human spirit's unyielding quest for knowledge and truth. Michael Leibowitz is a renowned philosopher, political activist, and the esteemed host of the Rational Egoist podcast. Inspired by the philosophical teachings of Ayn Rand, Leibowitz passionately champions the principles of reason, rational self-interest, and individualism, seeking to empower others through his compelling work.

Having faced challenging circumstances that led to a 25-year prison sentence, Leibowitz emerged from adversity by embracing the tenets of rational self-interest and moral philosophy put forth by Ayn Rand. This profound transformation propelled him to become an influential figure in the libertarian and Objectivist communities, motivating others to adopt reason, individualism, and self-interest in their own lives. Leibowitz is a versatile author, co-authoring the thought-provoking book titled “Down the Rabbit Hole: How the Culture of Correction Encourages Crime.” This groundbreaking work delves into societal attitudes surrounding punishment and rehabilitation, shedding light on how misguided approaches have contributed to the rise of crime and recidivism.

The Rational Egoist: Navigating Schisms in the Liberty Movement with Scott Schiff from The Atlas Society Description: In this episode of The Rational Egoist, host Michael Liebowitz sits down with Scott Schiff from The Atlas Society to discuss the schisms within the liberty movement. The liberty movement has experienced several schisms, including anarcho-capitalism, open and closed Objectivist systems, and libertarianism. These schisms have led to heated debates and disagreements among those seeking freedom, resulting in the banning of people from different groups due to intellectual differences. However, what is often missed in these debates is the fundamental belief shared by all freedom seekers - the belief that there should be no initiation of force against others, and that people have a right to their own life. Michael and Scott highlight the importance of focusing on the bigger picture and recognizing that there are only a few people in the world who follow morality based on Ayn Rands ideas. The liberty movement aims to change the philosophy of society to change the government, and the philosophical route that somebody takes to arrive at a conclusion that is in line with this morality should not be relevant. Instead of invalidating the entire person, individuals should be able to disagree with a point that someone has made without resorting to conflict. The hosts question why rational people go to war with each other against intellectual disagreements and ignore the looters who are the real problem. The schisms within the liberty movement have created a Civil War-like situation, where individuals are excluded from different groups due to simple intellectual disagreements. The fundamental philosophical ideas that people have, such as life being a standard of value and the purpose of the government being to protect individual rights, should be enough for people to remain civil and fight the real problem - those who use government to destroy freedom. In conclusion, this episode of The Rational Egoist highlights the importance of focusing on the bigger picture, recognizing the fundamental beliefs that shared by all who believe in liberty, and remaining civil in the face of intellectual disagreements. Schisms within liberty ideas should not lead to conflict, and individuals should recognize that they are all on the same side in fighting leftist ideology. Michael Liebowitz is a philosopher, political activist, and host of the Rational Egoist podcast. He is a passionate advocate of reason and his views have been heavily influenced by the philosopher Ayn Rand. Liebowitz has dedicated his life to promoting its principles of rational self-interest, individualism, and reason. In addition to his work as a podcast host, Liebowitz is also a prominent spokesperson for the Libertarian Party for Connecticut - USA and has been involved in a number of political debates advocating for individual rights and freedoms through his YouTube videos and interviews. Liebowitz's life story is a testament to the transformative power of the writings of Ayn Rand. After spending 25 years in prison, he was able to turn his life around by embracing the principles of rational self-interest and morality espoused by Ayn Rand. He has since become an influential voice in the libertarian and Objectivist communities, using his own experience to inspire others to live their lives in accordance with reason, individualism, and self-interest. Liebowitz is also the co-author of "Down the Rabbit Hole: How the Culture of Correction Encourages Crime," a book that explores the ways in which misguided societal attitudes towards punishment and rehabilitation have led to a rise in crime and recidivism. In addition to his work in politics and philosophy, Liebowitz is a regular guest on the Todd Feinburg show at WTIC, where he provides expert commentary on a range of political and social issues.

What is the role of philosophy in history? Do philosophers come up with ideas that spread and influence the world? Or are their works the cumulation of the advances of society? How do good ideas spread? And is this a time for optimism? Today's episode of Classical Wisdom Speaks is with Robert Tracinski, editor of Symposium, a journal of liberalism, author of the The Tracinski Letter (https://tracinskiletter.substack.com/) and a Senior fellow at the Atlas Society. We'll be looking at the relationship between philosophy and history, the "Thales Objection" and Robert's idea on the virtuous circle.Please check out https://Classicalwisdom.substack.com to sign up for our free newsletter - We are a reader supported publication and its our wonderful community that makes our site and this podcast possible.

The Paradox of Selflessness: How Wokeism and Trumpism Betray Rational Self-Interest In this episode of Rational Egoist, host Michael Liebowitz and guest Robert Tracinski, Senior fellow at the Atlas Society and author of "Who is John Galt, Anyway? A Pocket Guide to Ayn Rand's Atlas Shrugged," explore the challenges of civil discourse in the age of wokeism and Trumpism. Drawing on their expertise in rational egoism, Liebowitz and Tracinski discuss the paradox of selflessness as it manifests in these two irrational beliefs. Wokeism promotes a collectivist mindset that seeks to suppress individual thinking and expression, while Trumpism emphasizes a cult of personality that values loyalty to the leader over rational self-interest. Liebowitz and Tracinski argue that both of these ideologies betray the true spirit of rational self-interest, which requires individuals to pursue their own goals and values in cooperation with others, without sacrificing their own well-being to the demands of the collective or the authority of the leader. The conversation also touches on the challenges of engaging in civil discourse in the era of social media and the importance of protecting individual rights and freedoms in order to build a more prosperous and just society for all. Ultimately, Liebowitz and Tracinski make the case that a rational egoist approach, based on the pursuit of rational self-interest, is the key to achieving true progress and prosperity in society, and that the irrational beliefs of wokeism and Trumpism are holding us back from achieving our full potential as individuals and as a society. Michael Liebowitz is a philosopher, political activist, and host of the Rational Egoist podcast. He is a passionate advocate for the philosophy of Objectivism, as developed by Ayn Rand, and has dedicated his life to promoting its principles of rational self-interest, individualism, and reason. In addition to his work as a podcast host, Liebowitz is also a prominent spokesperson for the Libertarian Party in the United States, and has been involved in a number of political campaigns advocating for individual rights and freedoms. Liebowitz's life story is a testament to the transformative power of Objectivism. After spending 25 years in prison, he was able to turn his life around by embracing the principles of rational self-interest and morality espoused by Ayn Rand. He has since become an influential voice in the libertarian and Objectivist communities, using his own experience to inspire others to live their lives in accordance with reason, individualism, and self-interest. Liebowitz is also the co-author of "Down the Rabbit Hole: How the Culture of Correction Encourages Crime," a book that explores the ways in which misguided societal attitudes towards punishment and rehabilitation have led to a rise in crime and recidivism. In addition to his work in politics and philosophy, Liebowitz is a regular guest on the Todd Feinburg show at WTIC, where he provides expert commentary on a range of political and social issues.

Hi everyone, last week I had the fun of being a guest on the 137th episode of The Atlas Society Asks (TASA) podcast [maybe give a link to the podcast page here]. The Atlas Society Asks is hosted by Jennifer A Grossman, the President & CEO of The Atlas Society. The Atlas Society celebrates the remarkable potential and power of the individual and promotes learning about the capitalist system juxtaposed against the other kinds of systems in the world, so that young people in particular can make informed choices about which is the kind of system they want to live in and whether they're willing to make the decisions that allow them to be successful in a capitalist society. We cover a board range of topics from my upbringing / formative years and the influence that growing up in the 1960s and 1970s had on my entrepreneurial spirit, to my life's work of helping Entrepreneur Owner Managers to unlock their individual potential by building and capture Enterprise Value through a capital gain transaction, and so much more in between. I hope you enjoy.

On today's episode of the Positive Enterprise Value podcast I am interviewing, Jennifer A. Grossman who goes by the nickname JAG. JAG is the President and CEO of The Atlas Society. JAG lives in Malibu and travels so extensively, I'm not sure that she would say they have a headquarters every- anywhere. As you might have guessed from the name, The Atlas Society, which is, drawn from the book Atlas Shrugged, the fantastic novel by Ayn Rand. The Atlas Society celebrates the remarkable potential and power of the individual and promotes learning about the capitalist system juxtaposed against the other kinds of systems in the world, so that young people in particular can make informed choices about which is the kind of system they want to live in and whether they're willing to make the decisions that allow them to be successful in a capitalist society. JAG is a fabulously interesting person who, after an Ivy League education at Harvard, spent time at the White House as a speech writer. She also spent time in the private sector. She has also advised other for profit and non-for-profit entities. I think she's been with Atlas about six or seven years. She's made enormous transformable- transformative changes there moving their curriculum to focus a lot of resources on young people and is very open and candid about her challenges in doing so over the last few years. And I think you'll really enjoy hearing her so without further delay, here's my interview with Jennifer A. Grossman, JAG.

How have the fictional writings of Ayn Rand become so relevant in the world today?
