| 0:00.0 | This is Monica Perez here today with Marcel Gertrho of a research fellow from the Mises Institute, PhD in economics from George Mason University. |
| 0:19.8 | I'm already like, |
| 0:21.8 | want to read your thesis and pick your brain on every single thing. |
| 0:27.1 | But we have lighter topics today. |
| 0:29.5 | In any case, thank you for coming. |
| 0:30.9 | Hello, Marcel. How are you? |
| 0:32.4 | I'm doing great. Thanks for having me on. |
| 0:33.6 | I feel like there's a little bit of a Mesa's double header |
| 0:36.3 | because I was looking for somebody |
| 0:39.5 | to talk about Bosteat's The Law. So I came upon you and Jonathan Newman. So I talked to Jonathan |
| 0:49.0 | Newman yesterday about the law, but I want to talk to you about all the other things I read about in just exploring |
| 0:57.5 | your work. I first heard you talk to, was it Scott and Patrick or Scott and William on the |
| 1:02.3 | podcast that must not be named? It was a British guy or an American guy? The British guy is |
| 1:09.0 | William and the American guy is Pat. I think it was Patrick. Yeah, that was a great episode. Very humorous as always with those guys. I get totally cringe out on all the hot topics that those guys hit on. You won't get that for me probably, but I do have a passion and anti-neoconservative |
| 1:30.9 | passion and history, and that is also one of your hot buttons. So we've got lots we could talk |
| 1:37.6 | about, but I'd love to start with that. And we can just, you know, start from the beginning |
| 1:43.3 | of what, you know, I just, for me, it just pissed me off. |
| 1:47.8 | Like, I read this book, Irving Crystal's neoconservatism, the autobiography of an idea. |
| 1:53.9 | I wrote a review on it 12 years ago. |
| 1:56.2 | And it starts with like, the guy calls himself a neo-trotskyist or trae, Neotrotsky, I, he, every passage in here is a repudiation of traditional conservatism. |
| 2:06.1 | Everyone should hate all of it, and it's here in black and white, like, we are being duped, and, uh, you know, nobody listens, and now, I mean, we've gotten beyond, we should be so lucky that we can go back to when he wrote this stuff. So what, you know, was it just a visceral reaction to the truth of it all or what made you into that? |
| 2:26.6 | So for me, you know, the 9-11 happened when I was six. And so from there, I had heard about the Patriot Act and I was very young. |
