... Welcome again to the Lions of Liberty Podcast.

That's right.

We made it to a second episode.

And they said it wouldn't last.

I don't know who they are, but they said it.

As always, I am your host, your guide, your shining Beacon of Liberty, Mark Clare.

Now, if you're familiar with our website, which I hope you are by now.

If not, go check it out.

You will know that we place a strong emphasis on ideas. Our mission statement is to advance the ideas of liberty.

And, you know, we always talk about ideas, philosophy, because it's important to have a strong philosophical basis for the positions we take.

And that is exactly what we're going to talk about on this edition of the Lions of Liberty Podcast.

My guest here today is most recently the author of Reason and Liberty.

He is also the author of a book called Four Individual Rights, and he has a blog of the same name,

which you can find at For Individual Rights.com.

Shane Whistler, welcome to the Lions of Liberty podcast.

Thanks for having me on.

Thanks for being here.
