A Tribute to Samuel Blumenfeld, 1926-2015, The Final Radio Interview

6/3/2015
Sam Blumenfeld was the single most educated man on the subject of the takeover of a formerly excellent private US education system by a statist, Prussian-styled, progressive system. He championed phonetic reading, and uncovered the disastrous effects and pernicious motives behind the "look-say"/"sight-word" method of reading pushed by govt schools. Sam also researched and wrote a book about the evidence supporting the thesis that the plays attributed to William Shakespeare were actually written by Christopher Marlowe, who did NOT die outside a pub in England, but lived out his life on Corsica, as a paid employee of the Queen. Fascinating, evidence-backed publications, speeches, and conversations. Sam also understood free market economics, and wrote numerous articles on a wide range of topics. He was a man of peace and kindness, and he was a hero for thousands of kids whose reading skills improved thanks to his work in promotion of phonics! Rest in peace, good man! We hope you will look for Sam's books, such as "The Marlow Shakespeare Connection", "Is Public Education Necessary?", "NEA: Trojan Horse of American Education", "Alpha-Phonics" and more. Also, please look for his speeches on Youtube! His latest book was released in March, and is entitled, "Crimes of the Educators". In this production, we feature his last interview, in which he discusses the book. Thanks for listening! Please spread the word about individual liberty and its key component: free markets! Be Seeing You!

For Religious, Agnostic, Atheists: Was Christ Pro-State, or An Anarchist?

4/19/2015
The title says a lot. :) This program, recorded on Easter, 2015, is for those who might say they are believers in the Christian religion (whichever kind of Christian they might be), for those who are uncertain of Jesus's position as a messiah, and those who deny any supernatural aspect to the universe. In the production, we explore a debate in which many people (religious, Christian, non-religious, etc) have engaged: Whether Jesus, the historical figure, was pro-state, or, if it's possible...

Provocative and fascinating. We hope you like the program! In it, we feature great music by Big Dipper, "Easter Eve", and "Ron Klaus Wrecked His House"! Notes!

Liberty Conspiracy - 12-15-14 Debating the Morality of State-Funded Torture for Supposed 'Noble' Goals

12/15/2014
Thanks for finding the Conspiracy for Liberty! We are a growing group of people dedicated to spreading, propagating and deepening the understanding of freedom in all its facets! In this program, we give you a spontaneous debate brought to Gardner Goldsmith by listener Witt (James). Witt posed some provocative questions about what Gard would do if her were in charge of a "unit" that had captured a Nazi like Himmler. Witt poses a hypothetical to support state-sponsored torture, while Gard uses his position to reveal how such a position would allow the state to force people to pay for torture, and if they did not want to pay, to threaten them with the very violence the Nazis used against their enemies: the threat of, and carrying out of physical violence and possible death. Music in this production is: "Killing Allin", by The Hellacopters, "Little Victories" by The Horrors, and "Repo Man", by Iggy Pop. Follow Gard on Twitter @gardgoldsmith ! - Be Seeing You!

Liberty Conspiracy - 12-9-14 - Pop Media Tries to Frame Perception of "Torture Report" and Cover-Up Obama Admin Support of Torture

12/9/2014
The title says it all. There is a lot of worthwhile information here, including a reading of President Oabama's own words from Jan of 2009 as he obfuscated and lied by omission on the question of whether he would continue "rendition" treatment of "enemy combatants" as the feds unconstitutionally call those US forces and allies capture in the undeclared "war" that is really an illegal series of military operations. Gardner Goldsmith goes back to the early days of the O admin and shows how the pop media is covering for him. Music includes: "Should God Forget", and "Entertain Me" by the Psychedelic Furs, as well as the full cut of "Beat My Guest", by Adam and the Ants (an appropriate song when talking about torture)...

Liberty Conspiracy - 12-3-14 - What IS the PetroDollar? Why Is The US Overthrowing Nations That Stop Using It?

12/3/2014
The title speaks for itself! In this production, we offer background information on the history of he so-called "PetroDollar", when the US Dollar was supposedly linked to the OPEC nations like Saudi Arabia, and why, and why nation states that have governments moving away from the US Dollar are being overthrown (that's nations like Iraq, Libya, and Ukraine). Hope you like the information offered and that it will serve as intellectual ammunition for spreading the word about freedom and free markets being one and the same! Music in this production includes "Invaders Must Die!" and "Spitfire", by The Prodigy, as well as "Dizzy" by Stockholm's Demons! Follow Gardner Goldsmith on twitter @gardgoldsmith :) Be Seeing You!

Liberty Conspiracy - 11-5-14 - The Conspiracy on Why Licensing Laws to Do Business Are Immoral and Hurt the Poor

11/5/2014
The city of Los Angeles is being asked by entrenched cab businesses to foist expensive licensing laws on people who use Uber and Lyft to offer rides to paying customers. Using this story, Gardner Goldsmith, MikeArchy and Gerald discuss how pernicious licensing laws are, what they do to potential competition, and how that hurts consumers and other potential businesses that could have received business if those consumers had been able to save money and spent what they wanted where they wanted! Hope you like the program, and if you do, that you'll slap it down on a friend's Facebook page or Twitter or whatever new-fangled interwebby invention comes along in the next few seconds! Music in this show is "Inertia Creeps" by Massive Attack, and "The Witch" by The Cult. This version of "The Witch" is the hard-to-find FULL version, with the great guitar solo, funky "D-wup" sound and great drum beat, "Ba, ba, ba, ba, ba-ba-ba, ba-ba-bam." See? ;) This version is also unavailable on Youtube now. It keeps getting yanked because it was on the soundtrack for the movie "Cool World" (and was the best thing in the flick)! Be Seeing You!

Liberty Conspiracy - 6-12-14 - Immigration: The Constitution Doesn't Let the Feds Handle It, Immigrants Help An Economy

6/12/2014
This special production is offered for you to listen and share. In it we explain what the US Constitution actually says (or, more precisely, DOESN'T say) about immigration control (hint, it's not a federal power). We also talk about the economic benefits of increased immigration, and get into the anarchist arguments that explain why national boundaries are to be avoided! Must listen material for folks who call themselves Constitutionalists in the "Tea Party". We also offer a new cut by The Horrors, and "Worm Tamer" by Grinderman, "Running Battle" by Kasabian, and "Grandpa Atomic" by The New Bomb Turks!

6/6/2014
Welcome back to the portable productions for liberty! In this program we give you news about Glenn Greenwald's courageous move to release the list of people on whom the NSA has been spying, news about how the NSA appears to have destroyed years of evidence showing its malfeasance, news about how many Pakistanis have been killed by Prez Obama and his acolytes, and we talk about the meaning of the word "rights", explaining why the idea embraces NEGATIVE, not POSITIVE claims. Music? Well sure! We open with "Millenium" by Killing Joke, and feature "Godzilla" by Blue Oyster Cult, "Raft Ants" by WIRE, "Collapsing New People" by Fad Gadget, "Parade" by the P Furs, and the great instrumental "Ovary Stripe" by Kasabian!

Liberty Conspiracy - 5-28-14 On Reauthorization of NDAA and Indefinite Detention, and How Reporters Get The Term Inflation Wrong

5/28/2014
Welcome back to the Conspiracy for Liberty! Thanks for finding us! In this program, we feature an analysis of the National Defense Authorization Act, which was recently RE-authorized the evening that folks were starting their Memorial Day sojourns. Nothing like keeping the story out of peoples' eyes. It's a dangerous law that continues to breach the 1st, 4th, 5th, 6th and 7th Amendments, and allows the President to hold people without trial -- as long as he desires. It also gives him the ability to curtail speech and imprison reporters if he's inclined. Not a good idea, and contrary to the US Constitution. Then we talk about the paucity of good reporting when it comes to economics. Case in point, how a pop media reporter doesn't take the time to check the claims of the USDA when it comes to higher meat prices. We hope you like the show, and will spread the word! Send a link to a friend! Post on Twitter an FB! Music? A little sample from the new John Ashton project Satellite Paradiso called "Touch the Sky" -- please look for the disc at www.satelliteparadiso.com -- then we hear The New Bomb Turks' "Grandpa Atomic", Killing Joke's "The Wait", and "In Excelsis"! Look for their stuff! :) Be Seeing You!

Liberty Conspiracy - 5-19-14 - Fake Congressional Concern over NSA Spying, S. Court vs Right to Self Defense, Liberty and Prostitution

5/19/2014
The title says it pretty well! This updates us on how members of Congress are attempting to look concerned over NSA spying, even as they work on making corporations do it. We also look at a recent move by the Supreme Court that again shows that the majority of the justices are not interested in defending your right to keep and bear arms. And we look at the libertarian approach to selling sex. Music includes Supertramp "Bloody Well Right", The New Bomb Turks "Gotta, Gotta Sinking Feeling" and "Girl Can Help It", Pixies "Debaser" and the song that beat them to it when it came to slicing up eyeballs, "Flowers" by the Psychedelic Furs. We finish with the great "Crime of the Century" by Supertramp! Join us at www.libertyconspiracy.com! Follow Gard on Twitter @gardgoldsmith ! Be Seeing You!

The title says it all! Lots of good information in here about their double standards (with audio evidence of said hypocrisy), and background on the FISA Courts vs the 4th Amendment! Music: minimal in this one. We open with Cheap Trick, of course, and their great song "Dream Police", and use some music from the Demons (Stockholm) and Girls Against Boys between segments, and close with The Fatima Mansions "Loyalizer"!

Liberty Conspiracy - 3-4-14 On Mt. Gox Bankruptcy, Bad WSJ Reporting, Claims by Eliz Warren & Others That Regulation Stops Bank Failures

3/4/2014
Lots-a information in this here production, amigos y amigas. We think you'll like it. We begin by reading a report on the Mt. Gox Bitcoin theft and subsequent bankruptcy, and while reading it, we observe an opinion inserted by the reporters that indicates their belief that central banking and "regulation" are things to be lauded, that with them come stability and "bailouts". Interesting combination there. From that point, we discuss the claims made by a politician named Elizabeth Warren (Senate from Mass) that things like the so-called "Glass-Steagall" kept the banking industry stable for decades, and that the lifting of this unconstitutional and immoral law somehow brought about the 2008 bank failures in the US. We also discuss many of the bad policies of the 1920'3, '30's and '40's that led to and prolonged the Great Depression. We have a lot of intellectual information here for you! Hope you like it and spread the word to those who try to debate you about economics and freedom! Music in this show includes Danko Jones: "Samuel Sin" and "The Finger", a little Killing Joke "War Dance" (just a bit), and Time Zone's "World Destruction"! Visit us at www.libertyconspiracy.com!

Liberty Conspiracy - 2-22-14 - Guest Stephen M. Smith on The Jones Act, Rock Salt Shipments, and the Folly of Economic Protectionism

2/22/2014
Welcome back! Great thoughts from Stephen Smith are featured in this podcast, and we would like to thank Stephen for his work and his time chatting with us on the show! In this program, Stephen discusses (as the title indicates) the story BEHIND a holdup of rock salt at a Maine port. He explains that the problem goes back to a 1920 federal law, and what was behind that law. Given the forces that pushed for the law to pass, what economic lessons can we uncover? GREAT work by Stephen! Visit his site (and see the article on this subject) here! Pass it on to those learning about economics! http://libertyconspiracy.podomatic.com/entry/2014-02-21T11_44_21-08_00 Thanks for listening!
