The Tom Wood Show, Episode 2109, prepared a set fire to the index card of allowable opinion.

0:07.6

Your daily dose of liberty education starts here. The Tom Wood Show.

0:14.2

Hey everybody, I'm giving away three free courses from my Liberty classroom. One of them is

0:19.6

X-Marxist Michael Rectonwald, teaching about critical theory, so you can understand leftism and

0:25.4

fight it better, as well as our course on how Alexander Hamilton screwed up America and the history

0:31.5

of the conservative and libertarian movements. Check it out at threefreecourses.com.

Hey everybody, Tom Woods here. I'm thinking in the next few weeks sometime, I want to do an

0:43.0

Eric July week. Now if you've been listening to me for a long time, you probably know who Eric July

0:48.0

is. He's got his foot in all different genres. He's doing all different things at once,

1:27.2

to do a week of episodes with Anthony Esselen. And as I said, I've had him on before, but he's just

1:34.0

a brilliant guy. He's a professor who's, for one thing, done a really, really good translation of

1:42.0

Dante's Divine Comedy. But he's also written a whole bunch of books, and he's got a new one coming

1:47.6

out soon enough that I think will devote a week where we'll take a couple days to that book and then

1:53.5

go through some of his other work. But he is such an impressive person on every level. He is exactly

2:00.1

the kind of person the conservative movement these days wants to have nothing to do with. He's
