Wrapping up Anarchapulco 2019!

February 17th, 2019 - 8:54pm by FTL_Admin in

Once again, Mark and I were honored to be invited to broadcast from the must-attend liberty event of the year, Anarchapulco 2019. It was my third year attending and it's been great to help and watch the event grow. Big thanks to the bunch of Free Talk Live listeners that we met who traveled here from all over!

In case you missed it, I wrote a detailed blog about Anarchapulco and Ron Paul's inspiring appearance here this weekend . Please do share!

This year's Anarchapulco was a blast and even bigger than last year. The vibe and people were great. The Anarchapulco team have put together the event that pulls in attendees ranging from suits to hippies. It's now multiple stages and has taken over the...

We're live from Acapulco for a week!

February 9th, 2019 - 7:00pm by FTL_Admin in

Mark and his family are renting a nice place in Acapulco for the month and encouraged me to come out for longer than just the Anarchapulco conference coming up next week. They are renting a six bedroom, five bath place with this view for $1,100 a month (plus the power bill and any services like cleaning lady). Pretty sweet deal. Tune in live via our audio streams only as we don't have video streaming here. We are still able to take Discord calls along with regular calls.

NH State House Examines New Voting System Proposals

February 4th, 2019 - 5:15pm by FTL_Ian in

Are New Hampshire’s representatives finally taking a closer look at alternative voting systems? For years, the state elections committee in the state house has rejected any proposed changes to NH’s voting system, regardless of how much sense they have made. However, now that Maine has adopted “ranked choice” voting , perhaps NH’s reps are taking the issue more seriously.

I was surprised recently to receive a call from Keene Sentinel reporter Jake Lahut asking me for my opinion on ranked choice voting for an article that appeared last week . As someone who has been a longtime libertarian, I’ve seen how the “vote for one” system we have in place hurts third parties, so I definitely support ranked choice and its competitor...

HB 567 Would Move New Hampshire into Atlantic Standard Time, Year-Round

January 27th, 2019 - 1:43pm by FTL_Ian in

Last week, liberty activists testified in Concord in favor of HB 567 which would move us to Atlantic Standard Time year-round, so long as MA and ME also do. This would end the stupid, dangerous, and annoying clock shifting we currently have to do twice a year. I’m happy to announce that all signatures on the blue sheet in the committee room were in favor of this bill!

Here’s full video of all the house testimony on the bill:

"Punk Rock Libertarians", "Alex Merced Cast", and "Part of the Problem" Join LRN.FM

January 26th, 2019 - 12:17pm by FTL_Admin in

This week, LRN.FM welcomed multiple shows to the podcast lineup - Punk Rock Libertarians , The Alex Merced Cast , and Part of the Problem . You can get full show details on our program guide here .

Sadly, due to major life changes since he recently fell in love , Darryl W Perry of FPP Radio News has decided to put his newscast on hiatus. As soon as he's back at it, his content will return to the air at LRN.FM (and the FTL streams). I wish Darryl the best and thank him for his dedicated service to liberty, having produced a newscast seven-days-a-week for several years virtually without interruption. It was a monumental task.
