  • The libertarians of life extension

    Libertarians believe that they are defenders of liberty, simply by virtue of asserting their support for capitalism on a narrowly political level—even as they repudiate the entire philosophical foundation on which true freedom depends. Similarly, the Objectivist movement has spent 4 decades systematically evading the application of survival as the standard in ethics to aging and life extension. Now ARI intellectuals, with Yaron’s endorsement, have formally rejected egoism applied to aging—all wh... more

  • Excellent podcast

    The Yaron Brook show is an excellent substitute to your general sources of knowledge. All in one you can find interest in Economics, principles in philosophy and a lot of common sense. If you don’t enjoy thinking to the extent that your life is important to you... then this show is not for you.

  • Fraud

    Yaron is not an egoist, and his movement is a cargo cult.

  • I Quit.

    I can’t believe I used to give Yaron Brook my money.

    Over the past several years, Brook and this show have gone off the rails. Brook admits that he was once a Leftist before discovering Objectivism in the late 1970s and early 1980s, and those Leftist tendencies are once again permeating through to many aspects of his belief system.

    What was once an educational and enlightening show that I never wanted to miss has become wrought with negativity, and Brook is quick to dismiss dissenting views, e... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Iran War -- One Week Evaluation | Yaron Brook Show
Q: What is your assessment of the Strait of Hormuz risk and US strategy to keep it open?
The risk is significant if plans are vague; a concrete, coalition-based escort and enforcement strategy, funded and authorized by Congress, is essential to keep oil flows moving and to pressure Iran without overstretching the military.
AMA & Hangout with Contributors (Feb 2026) | Yaron Brook Show
Q: Do you think people on the left are more open to objectivism than those on the right?
No, objectivism appeals to thinkers regardless of left or right; both sides can be equally principled yet misguided.
AMA & Hangout with Contributors (Feb 2026) | Yaron Brook Show
Q: What's the significance of the Korean K2 tank compared to the U.S. Abrams?
The Abrams is not hermetically sealed, which may not significantly matter based on historical use of chemical weapons, but other features like firepower and technology should be prioritized.
AMA & Hangout with Contributors (Feb 2026) | Yaron Brook Show
Q: Is double jeopardy a good rule?
It seems reasonable but should be very strictly regulated to avoid prosecuting the same person repeatedly with minimal new evidence.
Trade & Tariffs: Everything You Need To Know; Song Reviews | Yaron Brook Show
Q: Why do tariffs exist if they are harmful to the economy?
Tariffs exist because they are used as a tool by governments to control and protect local industries, but they ultimately lead to economic distortion and inefficiencies.
