Summary

Debate month begins on the flagship Lions of Liberty podcast, as Marc Clair battles Eric Brakey over the question "Was Edward Snowden's NSA Leak a Net Positive for Liberty?", with Brakey taking the positive and Marc doing his best to play devil's advocate and take on the challenge of taking the negative proposition? Have we seen greater freedom when it comes to government spying due to the Snowden leak? Or has it helped further entrench spying within the legal government apparatus? Listen to two liberty heavyweights debate this topic, and for a great cause!
