Hi folks, Jack Spirko here. Today you are listening to an episode of TSP Rewind.

Commercial free versions of past episodes podcast blast from the past.

I put these up when I can't do a show due to professional commitments or rare vacations.

These podcasts will appear in standard iTunes, Stitcher, and other feeds,

but will be titled TSP Rewind episodes and numbered accordingly.

And today folks, we are rewinding all the way back to April the 28th 2011.

This show was called 13 Interesting Facts About Liberty.

As we kick off two weeks of rewinds while I am enjoying the beautiful redwood forest near Mendocino, California with my wife for the next couple weeks.

I tried to come up with an interesting array of rewinds for you this time around.

And I tried to come from a broad spectrum of time across the show.

This one is the earliest one going back to 2011.

So we're going back what, 10, 12 years.

Yeah, 12 years total here. Right on almost exactly 12 years given this is April.

Anyway, there's a lot of stuff in this episode that I think challenged people initially.

That they really didn't like hearing these things about Liberty.

And this is far enough back that I actually still talked about voting at this time.

And I actually thought there was still some solution in that.

I had made my journey from small governments Republican, which is just nonsense, to full libertarian.

But I had not turned the corner to full on anarchist realizing that government solutions are government problems.

No matter how much you want them to be a solution.

And so you'll hear a little bit of that in this.

I don't have a lot of new material for this episode.
