Kinsella on Liberty Podcast: Episode 464. I appeared on the new show Tyrant's Den a few days ago. It was released today (May 2, 2025) along with the other initial episodes. Chat GPT shownotes: In this engaging episode of The Tyrants' Den, host and guest delve into a wide-ranging discussion with Stephan Kinsella, a leading libertarian legal theorist and retired patent attorney. The conversation begins [0:01–7:20] with Kinsella's background in patent law, where he candidly reflects on his anti-IP stance even while working within the IP system. He outlines how his libertarian beliefs shaped his legal career, how he avoided ethically troubling work like aggressive patent litigation, and how he transitioned to full-time libertarian scholarship, including his influential work on intellectual property and legal theory. As the episode unfolds [7:20–59:45], Kinsella explores the philosophical foundations of law from Roman and common law to natural law, and discusses international law, war crimes, and higher-law principles that transcend statutory frameworks. He articulates his estoppel theory of rights, critiques legal positivism, and examines proportionality in justice. Later segments address libertarian perspectives on immigration policy, property rights, and the influence of Kant on modern libertarian thinkers like Hans-Hermann Hoppe. Kinsella closes by recommending his book Legal Foundations of a Free Society [59:00–59:45], which compiles decades of his work on law, rights, and liberty. Grow shownotes: [00:00–15:00] In this episode of the Tyrants Den podcast, recorded on February 24, 2025, host Tyrell (The Liberty Tyrant) interviews Stephan Kinsella, a prominent libertarian thinker and retired patent attorney, to discuss law, rights, and Hans-Hermann Hoppe's contributions to libertarian theory. Kinsella shares his unique perspective as an anti-intellectual property (IP) patent attorney, explaining how he practiced patent law for 30 years while advocating for the abolition of IP, viewing his role as akin to providing defensive tools for clients. He introduces Hoppe's argumentation ethics, which defends libertarian norms like self-ownership and the non-aggression principle by arguing that denying them creates a performative contradiction in discourse. [15:01–59:45] The conversation explores Hoppe's critique of the state as an aggressor and his vision for private, decentralized legal systems grounded in property rights. Kinsella discusses natural law, common law, and civil law, drawing on his experience in Louisiana's civil law system and his international law studies. He explains his estoppel theory of rights, inspired by Hoppe and common law, which posits that aggressors cannot object to defensive force due to their prior actions, provided responses are proportional. The episode concludes with a discussion on immigration, where Kinsella proposes an invitation-based system to balance liberty and cultural concerns, and a plug for his book, Legal Foundations of a Free Society. Transcript and detailed shownotes below. https://youtu.be/B00FziQs3BU?si=-VENJyK6ylvdB_XH   ChatGPT Detailed Shownotes Detailed Summary with Time-Stamped Segments (Shownotes Body) [0:01–7:20] | Kinsella's Legal Career and Anti-IP Perspective Kinsella introduces his background as a patent attorney and libertarian. He explains how, despite opposing intellectual property, he practiced IP law ethically by avoiding aggressive enforcement work. Notes how libertarian theory shaped both his legal and writing careers. [7:20–11:20] | Foundations of Legal Systems: Roman vs. Common Law Discusses the difference between civil (Roman-based) and common law traditions. Explains Louisiana's unique civil law system and its impact on his legal education. Outlines historical influences on modern legal systems, including international and merchant law.

While I wasn't initially excited about Kendrick Lamar as the headliner (simply because I didn't know his music), I found myself getting unexpectedly defensive when I saw how quickly people dismissed the performance as terrible. It made me reflect on why we react the way we do, and more importantly, how curiosity and compassion can help us navigate the world with more kindness. Join me as I explore: How our opinions are shaped by personal preferences, past experiences, and even legacy burdens. Why cultivating curiosity and compassion can help us become more open-minded and less reactive. Practical ways to embrace curiosity and compassion in our daily lives.

This episode is a must-listen for anyone ready to embrace authenticity and take the first step toward true emotional healing.

Are you caught in the "all or nothing" loop? Do you find yourself either giving 110% to your goals or doing absolutely nothing when life gets in the way? In this episode, we're diving into how the "all or nothing" mindset is keeping you stuck and why the middle ground—the power of "and"—is where true transformation happens. We'll explore how this shift can impact key areas of your life, including nutrition, exercise, career, social life, and personal goals. Plus, we'll talk about why it's not your fault, how societal pressures have shaped this mindset, and how to embrace a more sustainable and fulfilling approach to growth. What You'll Learn in This Episode: Why "all or nothing" thinking keeps you stuck in cycles of burnout and inaction. How the power of "and" can create balance and sustainable progress. The role of force energy and perfectionism in triggering fear and procrastination. Why it's not your fault: understanding the cultural roots of the "work harder" mindset. The importance of slowing down, resting, and recognizing what's already in front of you. Practical examples of applying the "and" mindset to nutrition, exercise, career, social life, and goal setting. How to shift from force to flow and embrace compassionate accountability. Key Takeaways: Progress over perfection: If you can't give it all, then some will do. Small, consistent actions add up to big changes over time. Balance beats burnout: Rest and self-compassion are just as important as effort in achieving your goals. Change your lens: Stop seeing setbacks as failures and start viewing them as opportunities to adjust and grow. Break free from extremes: Learn to thrive in the middle ground, where flexibility and resilience create lasting success. Here is the link to the Healthy Habit Journal I mention in the episode.

Assad covers some ethics related matters in the latter part of the course and asked me to talk generally about ethics and related matters. I discussed ethics, morality, politics, and science. I discussed ethics and its relationship to science and politics, and discussed about what science is, the types of sciences, ethics and ethical theories and the relationship to specialized ethics and morality in general, and its relationship to political ethics and political philosophy. I then discussed libertarianism in general, the nature and function of property rights, and then explained how the intellectual property issue can be addressed based on the libertarian and private law perspective.

This thought-provoking conversation invites listeners to question and refine their understanding of one of the most fundamental concepts in political philosophy. Michael Leibowitz, host of The Rational Egoist podcast, is a philosopher and political activist who draws inspiration from Ayn Rand's philosophy, advocating for reason, rational self-interest, and individualism. His journey from a 25-year prison sentence to a prominent voice in the libertarian and Objectivist communities highlights the transformative impact of embracing these principles. Leibowitz actively participates in political debates and produces content aimed at promoting individual rights and freedoms. He is the co-author of “Down the Rabbit Hole: How the Culture of Correction Encourages Crime” and “View from a Cage: From Convict to Crusader for Liberty,” which explore societal issues and his personal evolution through Rand's teachings.Explore his work and journey further through his books: “Down the Rabbit Hole”: https://www.amazon.com.au/Down-Rabbit-Hole-Corrections-Encourages/dp/197448064X “View from a Cage”: https://books2read.com/u/4jN6xj   join our Ayn Rand Adelaide Meetups here for some seriously social discussions on Freedom https://www.meetup.com/adelaide-ayn-rand-meetup/

Will Javier Milei Succeed in Argentina? Mark Klugmann is a policy reforms strategist with four decades of experience advising political leaders in the United States and Latin America. Klugmann has advised seven presidents in Latin America and has helped their governments to design and win approval of multiple financial, regulatory, and infrastructure reforms. In the White House, he was a speech writer to presidents Ronald Reagan and George H.W. Bush, and he also served as assistant director of the White House Outreach Working Group on Central America. Klugmann is the originator of the reform praxis methodology that accomplishes difficult reforms. The methodology integrates economics, politics, communications, strategy, and management. He has successfully applied the reform praxis to help governments achieve dollarization, privatization, telecommunications, ports, property titles, and security policy, notably without political cost. He advised the country of Georgia on the creation of special jurisdictions to operate under Anglo-Saxon law. In Honduras, he was co-author of the law creating a special jurisdiction, incorporating the model of institutional leapfrogging, and was appointed by the president and confirmed by the Congress as a commissioner. Mark has lectured on public policy in 36 countries to audiences from such institutions as Harvard University's Kennedy School, the World Bank, the Mont Pelerin Society, the Global Financial Summit in Nassau, the Latin American Business Council, the Free University of Tbilisi, the Catholic University of Chile, and the Federation of Private Entities of Central America, Panama, and the Dominican Republic. Dr. Nicolás Cachanosky is the associate professor of economics and director of the Center for Free Enterprise at the University of Texas at El Paso. He is a senior fellow at the American Institute of Economic Research (AIER) and a fellow at the Friedman-Hayek Center for the Study of a Free Society. Dr. Cachanosky also serves as associate editor of the Southern Economic Journal. He is the past president of the Association of Private Enterprise Education and former director of the Mont Pelerin Society. He is the co-author of the recent book Dollarization: A Solution for Argentina, which is timely to the topic he will be addressing today, Austrian Capital Theory: a Modern Survey of the Essentials, and he is an author of Capital and Finance: Theory and History. Dr Cachanosky has more than 100 publications. Recent commentary includes subjects such as Dollarization in Argentina: A Missed Opportunity and A Credibility Dilemma in Milei's Economic Plan.

Kinsella on Liberty Podcast, Episode 442. This is a debate between me and Walter Block about voluntary slavery contracts, hosted by Matthew Sands of the Nations of Sanity project as part of his "Together Strong" debate series. (See previous episode KOL426) Unedited transcript (from Youtube) below. https://youtu.be/x6ecMmBpGs8?si=veUW9EnXhwujEAo1 Notes: For further discussion of this topic, see: chapters 9–11, from Legal Foundations of a Free Society (2024; LFFS), namely "A Libertarian Theory of Contract: Title Transfer, Binding Promises, and Inalienability," "Inalienability and Punishment: A Reply to George Smith," and "Selling Does Not Imply Ownership, and Vice-Versa: A Dissection" Re the "Zombicide" comments, see ch. 10, text at n.37 My paper, The Title-Transfer Theory of Contract (Papian Press Working Paper #1) KOL004 | Interview with Walter Block on Voluntary Slavery and Inalienability Other than Block and Nozick, Gerard Casey also seems to favor voluntary slavery: “Can You Own Yourself?“, Research Depository UCD Dublin (Dec. 2011) A few comments. African Slavery Walter favors voluntary slavery but not involuntary slavery;  this was one reason he sued the New York Times for defamation, since they claimed he supported slavery (if I recall correctly; 1, 2, 3). But how do we know that all the African slaves in antebellum America were involuntary slaves? Is it established that every African shipped to the US from Africa went against their will? What if they heard life was better in America, and they volunteered to go even knowing they would be enslaved. Wouldn't such a slavery contract be enforceable in Walter's view of slavery? Or take another example. Suppose Jones, owner of a plantation in Louisiana, owns a slave Toby, but he starts to feel bad about slavery and he manumits Toby, and tells him to leave. Toby says he has no money, no food, and he doesn't want to wander around in Louisiana where he might be attacked or enslaved again, and says he would prefer to just stay on Jones's plantation and work for him. Jones says well okay but only if you sell yourself to me and be my slave. So Toby sells himself to Jones. Wouldn't this be legitimate and enforceable, according to Walter's theory? Forced Sex with a Prostitute Walter says that if you sell yourself into slavery, then if you try to run away you are stealing the property of your owner. He is entitled to use force against you since you are disobeying him. Now around 52:13, Mathew asks Walter about my hypothetical about kissing a girl. I had explained that it's not assault/battery or aggression if you kiss a girl if she consents. If during dinner she promises to let you kiss her when you drop her off, and you do, it's also not consent, since her last communication set up a sort of standing presumption. As I write in ch. 9 of LFFS, Part III.C.1: If a girl promises a kiss at the end of the date and the boyfriend an hour later kisses her, she cannot claim it was nonconsensual. In effect, she communicated her consent, she set up a standing presumption that is reasonable to rely on—until and unless she changes her mind. If at the end of the date she announces she no longer wants a kiss, it is that consent that matters. It is always the most recent consent that matters since this is the best evidence for what was consented to. There is nothing in libertarianism that says people cannot change their minds. Walter then responds by saying that if you pay a prostitute $100 for sex and she backs out, you can't force her to have sex, as it would be rape, you can only get your money back. But suppose you pay her an extra $900 to induce her to agree that she cannot change her mind, then if you force her it's not rape (to which I respond, "Jesus!"). Of course it's easy to see this logic could also apply to a girl you are dating. If she agrees to have sex with her date and the end of the date and agrees that she "cannot change her...

Was Abraham Lincoln a racist?  Were his efforts at emancipation the mere cold calculations of a politician whose sole aim was to win the Civil War, or do they point to some deeper ideals of America's first principles?  Joining Saving Elephants host Josh Lewis is Lincoln historian Dr. Allen C.

Many of these issues are touched on in my book Legal Foundations of a Free Society (Houston, Texas: Papinian Press, 2023). From his shownotes: Patent attorney Stephan Kinsella joins the show to discuss the problems intellectual "property" laws create in society, how these laws came into being in the first place, and why intellectual property is a flawed concept to begin with. In making his case, he explains his argument's roots in argumentation ethics as well as how a proper libertarian legal system should function.
