The Tom Woods Show, episode 436.

Prepare to set fire to the index card of allowable opinion.

Your daily dose of liberty education starts here, the Tom Woods Show.

Hey everybody, Tom Woods here.

Very pleased to welcome back to the show.

James Beauvard. James Beauard is an investigative journalist,

a great libertarian, the author of 10 books, and in particular we want to talk today about his

wonderful book, Public Policy Hooligan, rollicking and wrangling from Helltown to Washington.

Here is not only the story of how James Bovard became James Bovart, but also all the stories of his fights against all these

government bureaucracies, they can't stand him. He's been singled out by name, by agency after agency,

which proves he's doing his job as an investigative journalist. What a rare thing. And so I'm really, really pleased to be able to talk

to him about that today. Before I get to James Vovart, I want to thank you guys, once again,

for helping the show by making your Amazon purchases through the Amazon widget that you'll find at Tom Woods.com.

And on all the show notes pages, like today is tomwoods.com slash 436, where, by the way, you can find public policy hooligan linked there.

But entering Amazon through one of those links or through the Amazon widget there, at no

cost to yourself, you are helping me keep the lights on here, basically. I mean, you all know I have

five kids. I can't be out of pocket with the show. And you're making it possible for me to have

an office to do this in, to have a producer who assists me doing indispensable work. This all makes the show possible.

So I give the show, and we all enjoy doing it. I produce one every weekday, and you guys have

helped keep it going so that my expenses are covered, and I'm able to keep on doing it, and I'm

deeply grateful to you for that, and for remembering me when you're about to make those Amazon purchases.

Okay.
