The O'Leary Review Podcast Guest: Laura Davidson Show Notes available: https://briandoleary.substack.com/p/the-logic-of-freedom-understanding?sd=pf   Laura Davidson – Bio Laura Davidson is an accomplished author, researcher, and multi-disciplinary thinker who has established herself as an influential figure in the fields of economics, philosophy, and libertarian ethics. Her work, which is characterized by a rigorous approach to complex issues, has been published in numerous peer-reviewed journals. Davidson is a recipient of the prestigious Lawrence Fertig prize in economics from the Ludwig von Mises Institute, which recognizes her outstanding contribution to the field of economics in the Austrian tradition. In addition to her writing, she is a frequent speaker at libertarian and economic research conferences, as well as other venues, where her presentations have been praised for their clarity and originality.

Her work has received widespread recognition, and she continues to be a prominent voice in the ongoing conversation about the intersection of science, philosophy, and economics.   About The Logic of Freedom What does it mean to be truly free? In this bold and ground-breaking exploration of human freedom, libertarian philosopher Laura Davidson challenges us to contemplate the true nature of liberty. In doing so, she leads us to question many things we may think we know about the human condition and the world around us. Genuine freedom starts with an understanding we have freedom of the will. And yet many present-day scientists and philosophers argue that free will is merely an illusion. Their claim is that the activity of the brain is a purely physical process, analogous to the operation of a computer. But this implies we are mere automatons and cannot be held morally responsible for what we do. Moreover, if human thought and action is strictly deterministic, then this seriously challenges the notion of a genuinely free society by legitimizing the initiation of force and threat of force, particularly by those in positions of power. This book strongly disagrees with determinism and tackles it head-on. Drawing from studies in consciousness and the philosophy of mind, Davidson presents a logical argument to demonstrate why the human will is inherently free. While acknowledging that our choices are clearly influenced by certain biological instincts, many of which we have inherited from our evolutionary past, she employs fresh insights to show why we alone are the final arbiters of how we act. Unlike animals, which possess a lower form of consciousness, our decisions are not made for us. Her innovative and original ideas are a breakthrough in the discourse on free will, bringing a new perspective to the age-old question of whether or not human beings have real agency. However, while most people employ their will to cooperate with others, some individuals choose to dominate with force in order to attain power and, under certain conditions, are able to manipulate the masses in a way that leads to tyranny. A crucial aspect of Davidson's argument is that political control of any kind, including all forms of force and coercion, is inconsistent with our humanity as free and rational beings and with life itself. She demonstrates why a genuinely free society is mankind's natural destiny and argues that it can ultimately be achieved. Nevertheless, true political freedom of this kind will only occur when the libertarian principle of nonaggression is strictly observed in all areas of life. She reaches startling and thought-provoking conclusions on the relationship between law, personal morality, and society, challenging some of the most basic foundations of modern polity, and ends with addressing perhaps the most important issue of all: the nature of absolute truth, and how an understanding of such truth leads to genuine freedom and happiness.   Laura's Links The Logic of Freedom: Free Will, Human Nature, and the Rational Argument for a Genuinely Free World Laura at the Mises Institute   Podcasts mentioned The Tom Woods Show – Ep 2308 w/ Laura Davidson   Books and Authors Mentioned Go to BrianDOLeary.com/bookclub for more… H.L. Mencken Origins of Totalitarianism by Hanna Arendt The Psychology of Totalitarianism by Mattias Desmet Thomas Hobbes Jordan Peterson – 12 Rules for Life St. Thomas Aquinas   Principle of non-aggression Aggression – initiation of force against persons or property The principle asserts that aggression is inherently illegitimate. This non-aggression principle (The “NAP”) is the basis of most libertarian theory, stemming from John Locke's idea of self-ownership.   Mencken quote mentioned (June 1923) From A Mencken Chrestomathy (p. 354) “There was a time, and it was much less than a century ago, when any man of sound sense and fair education could understand all of the concepts commonly employed in the physical sciences, and even most of those used in the speculative sciences. In medicine, for example, there was nothing beyond the comprehension of the average intelligent layman. But of late that has ceased to be true, to the great damage of the popular respect for knowledge. Only too often, when a physician of today tries to explain to his patient what is the matter with him, he finds it impossible to get the explanation into terms within the patient's understanding. The latter, if he is intelligent enough, will face the fact of his lack of training without rancor, and content himself with whatever parts of the exposition he can grasp. But that sort of intelligence, unluckily, is rather rare in the world; it is confined, indeed, to men of the sort who are said to have the scientific mind, i.e., a very small minority of men. The average man, finding himself getting beyond his depth, instantly concludes that what lies beyond is simply nonsense.”   Benjamin Franklin Franklin famously said: “Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety.” Or did he? Or did he mean what we think he said? Benjamin Wittes, writing at Lawfare says: “Very few people who quote these words, however, have any idea where they come from or what Franklin was really saying when he wrote them. That's not altogether surprising, since they are far more often quoted than explained, and the context in which they arose was a political battle of limited resonance to modern readers. Many of Franklin's biographers don't quote them at all, and no text I have found attempts seriously to explain them in context. The result is to get to the bottom of what they meant to Franklin, one has to dig into sources from the 1750s, with the secondary biographical literature giving only a framework guide to the dispute.” More at Lawfare   What is Virtue? The concept as described by Aristotle (384 BC – 322 BC) in Rhetoric: “The forms of Virtue are justice, courage, temperance, magnificence, magnanimity, liberality, gentleness, prudence, wisdom.” — Rhetoric 1366b1 Philo of Alexandria (c. 50 BC – c. 50 AD), a Hellenistic Jewish philosopher, says: “In these words Moses intends to sketch out the particular virtues. And they also are four in number, prudence, temperance, courage, and justice.” — Philo's Works, Allegorical Interpretation XIX   The Roman philosophy as described by Cicero (106-43 BC): “Virtue may be defined as a habit of mind (animi) in harmony with reason and the order of nature. It has four parts: wisdom (prudentiam), justice, courage, temperance.” — De Inventione, II, LIII   Eudaimonia Also spelled eudaemonia or eudemonia. Laura defines it roughly as “human flourishing.” According to Aristotle, it was the term for the highest human good. “Verbally there is a very general agreement; for both the general run of men and people of superior refinement say that it is [eudaimonia], and identify living well and faring well with being happy; but with regard to what [eudaimonia] is they differ, and the many do not give the same account as the wise. For the former think it is some plain and obvious thing like pleasure, wealth or honour...” —   Nicomachean Ethics   Tom Woods 100 One of the goals of this program is to get at least 100 people within the Tom Woods orbit on the podcast. “Tom's orbit” is loosely defined, but we have somewhere around 80 more to go.

Once again, it’s been a big week for the industry. Since our last broadcast, Edinburgh Festival, Wimbledon and The Open Championship have all been cancelled. But, is there already light at the end of the tunnel? On 3 April, China hosted what organisers claim is the first major trade fair to take place in the country following the Covid-19 pandemic. China’s first reported death was 11 January and reports today (7 April) show zero new deaths due to the outbreak. If the UK were to follow the same timeline, then major events could start as early as the end of May. If events do get the go ahead as soon as May then marketeers may need to act quick. This week, my podcast guest is Tag Digital’s Laura Davidson, a specialist in digital event marketing who highlights best event marketing practice. Serving 2,000 events annually, Laura also shares key-analysis from when events began to cancel in Asia through to the more recent cancellations in Europe and the UK.

Have you ever started a fitness routine, only to fall off a few weeks - or heck- a few days later? And don't you just want to find others who can help you stay motivated and accountable to your personal fitness goals? Well, now there's an App that can help make all your wishes come true. Laura Davidson is the founder of the social fitness app known as Whistle. She created it out of her own personal struggle to stay motivated with her fitness goals. She always found herself getting obsessed with routines, only to fall off a few months later. And she didn't want to have to pay the expensive gym memberships to get in shape; but she wanted the community. Her solution - create a tinder-like app, where people can find like-minded fitness enthusiasts to work out with in their own cities. She's just in the beginning stages of the business; but so far the response has been incredible. She's hoping to roll it out over Canadian cities first, with the plans to expand on a global level. We talk about what it takes to create and launch an app; how she's dealt with her own body and weight issues; what tips have helped her stay balanced with a full time job, while creating her own business and what you must have for your business to thrive. Funny thing, she never thought she'd be an entrepreneur. But her unique work environment forced her to interact with entrepreneurs on the daily, and thus, making her want to create something of her own.
