We promote open Objectivism: the philosophy of reason, achievement, individualism, and freedom. Ayn Rand's philosophy of Objectivism was set forth in such works as her epic novel Atlas Shrugged, and in her brilliant non-fiction essays. Objectivism is designed as a guide to life, and celebrates the remarkable potential and power of the individual. Objectivism also challenges the doctrines of irrati... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

When Courts Abandon The Rule of Law, with Lauren Sheets Jarrell
Q: Candace Moreno asks, is going to court more expensive in the United States compared to elsewhere in the world?
The United States has the most expensive civil justice system, with costs driven by litigation abuse that raises prices and stifles innovation, though some reforms are being enacted to curb scams.
When Courts Abandon The Rule of Law, with Lauren Sheets Jarrell
Q: Lock, Stock and Barrel asks, What do you think is the biggest impediment to tort reform, lawyers or politicians?
The plaintiff's bar wields significant influence and campaign contributions, which makes reform challenging; educating voters and policymakers about the stakes and protecting constituents from profit-driven lawyers is essential.
When Courts Abandon The Rule of Law, with Lauren Sheets Jarrell
Q: Alan Turner asks, how do we deal with judicial accountability? How can we trust the system if judges express a bias or even disregard the law, like the judge who helped an illegal immigrant escape the police?
Judicial responsibility depends on how states handle elections or appointments for judges and the ongoing public spotlight to explain why decisions are outliers, with voters and officials educated about the role of judges to promote accountability.
Is The "New Right" Just Postmodernism in Disguise? with Hicks and Salsman
Q: Curious, did Nietzsche agree with the Great Man Theory of History, and how should we distinguish a healthy admiration for excellence from a dangerous worship of power?
Nietzsche is characterized as an advocate of the Great Man Theory, emphasizing a single extraordinary individual as driving historical change, while modern liberals typically argue that nearly anyone can develop the capacity for excellence with the right conditions; the concern is to balance honoring excellence with avoiding power worship.
300th Episode: How To Fight Censorship with Nadine Strossen
Q: The book takes on 10 pro-censorship arguments that are very much alive in today's culture. Is there one which you think is the most intellectually seductive, the one that even people who care about free speech sometimes fall for?
Strossen explains that while there are many seductive arguments, the one about words being equivalent to violence has grown particularly persuasive, especially on campuses; she argues that this framing can be used to justify suppressing speech, which in turn undermines truth-seeking and democratic dialogue.
