Which stations/shows do you guys listen to and which do you recommend?

When it comes to economics, I mainly listen to the Korelin Economics Report and the Financial News Hour. If you guys know of any other podcast dealing with free market and/or hard assets I'd be extremely glad to hear about them.

When it comes to foreign policy I mainly listen to more leftist progams like Democracy Now!, Free Speech TV and CounterSpin

Does anyone know of good podcasts that take a more libertarian or constitutional approach when it comes to government and domestic issues? I know nothing of that area.

I'm pretty bored right now as I don't have anything to listen to so checking free podcasts would be great, even if they're totally unrelated to politics and economics.

I recently got an MP3 player and the first thing I started loading it with was podcasts.

I've already listened to Tax Foundation's Podcast (http://www.taxfoundation.org/podcast/index.xml), Wallstreet Unspun with Peter Schiff (http://feeds.feedburner.com/WallStreetUnspunWithPeterSchiff), Lew Rockwell's Podcast (http://www.lewrockwell.com/podcast/feed.xml), and the Von Mises Institute Podcast (http://mises.org/media.xml). I have Bureaucrash (http://bureaucrash.com/?feed=podcast), Free Talk Live (http://freetalklive.com/netcast.xml) and Liberty Radio Underground (http://switchpod.com/users/citizenx/feed.xml) queued but I haven't listened to those yet.

Keep an eye on the Liberty RSS wiki (http://www.ronpaulforums.com/showthread.php?t=134210) and I'll try to add more podcasts as I find them. Most podcast directories suck.

Not liberty or politically related, but I also like to listen to The Tech Guy with Leo Laporte (http://www.leoville.tv/podcasts/kfi.xml).

I'd recommend Free Talk Live (http://freetalklive.com/). It's a fun radio show with an open format and liberty oriented hosts.

We the People Radio Network

They stopped broadcasting in Oct, but their archive of podcasts is still there. I tried them out for the first time a couple days ago - Michael Badnarik (2004 LP Presidential candidate) interviewed G. Edward Griffin

I don't think I'd care much about this, but I may give it a shot


Wallstreet Unspun with Peter Schiff (http://feeds.feedburner.com/WallStreetUnspunWithPeterSchiff), Lew Rockwell's Podcast (http://www.lewrockwell.com/podcast/feed.xml), and the Von Mises Institute Podcast (http://mises.org/media.xml).
I already listen to these and I like them.

Bureaucrash is so-so IMO, Free Talk Live is pretty good, but I haven't listend to liberty radio underground yet. Looks interesting. EDIT: unforuntately, doesn't like like it's been updated. Last episode is from May of 2008 :confused:

Personally I thought The Tech Guy was boring when I listened to it. I coudn't get through a whole episode because it was mostly questions, and whatever the host brought up was kind of boring as well. But since CES 2009 is going on right now, it might revisit it.


Anyway, I listen to quite a few podcasts now. Here the ones I like.

Antiwar Radio with Scott Horton (http://antiwar.com/radio/) - Scott Horton (and sometimes Charles Goyette, but he's never on anymore) discusses war and geopolitical issues with experts, he also occasionally does interviews on economics with Austrian economists.

Cate Daily Podcast (http://www.cato.org/dailypodcast/podcast-archive.php) - Cato Institute's podcast. It's pretty good sometimes. Also, the events podcasts (http://www.cato.org/podcasts/) are worth checking out

Complete Liberty Podcast (http://completeliberty.libsyn.com/) - A great market anarchist/agorist podcast. Takes influences from Stefan Molyneux, left-libertarianism and deals with other such topics.

Dan Carlin's CommonSense (http://www.dancarlin.com/disp.php/cs) - Just found about this podcast on this forum in fact. Commentary on news and politics.

FAIR's CounterSpin (http://www.fair.org/index.php?page=3668) - A progressive slant/critique on the week's headlines.

Commodity Watch Radio with Domonic Frisby (http://commoditywatch.podbean.com/) - Financial show. Has great interviews every once in a while.

EconTalk (http://www.econtalk.org/) - A weekly economics podcast dealing with a multitude of subjects.

Freedomain Radio (http://www.freedomainradio.com/podcasts.html) - Stefan Molyneux's program. Great stuff of philosophy, politics, economics the family and other interesting topics.

Financial Sense Newshour (http://www.financialsense.com/fsn/main.html) - Financial show. I mentioned this in my OP. It's usually a 5 hour show including a techinical/weekly look at the markets, guest interviews, and a 3-hour big picture overview/commentary.

Free Talk Live (http://www.freetalklive.com/) - We basically all know what this is about.

Glenn Greenwald Radio (http://dir.salon.com/topics/glenn_greenwald_radio/) - Glenn Greenwald's program dealing with issues in politics and civil liberties. Unfortunately, I don't think you can download this show, you have to listen online.

GoldRadio.fm (http://www.howestreet.com/audiovideo/) - Finance. Great daily interviews with experts and traders. I always look foward toward Bob Hoye's, Tim Wood's, and Mike Shedlock's interviews.

GoldSeek Radio (http://radio.goldseek.com/) Finance. Weekly show recapping the week's activity, stock recommendations, commentary and interviews.

Dan Carlin's Hardcore History (http://www.dancarlin.com/disp.php/hh) - Dan Carlin's other project. Infrequent podcast, but does interesting topics on history.

The Korelin Economics Report (http://www.korelinreport.com/) - Finance. I mentioned this in my OP as well. Still a favorite. Mostly a weekly show, but has some daily stuff as well usually.

Pacifica's KPFA (http://www.kpfa.org/) - A leftist/progressive radio station that includes Democracy Now! (as well as CounterSpin which I mentioned above) and other great programs.

Quality Of Life (http://www.kvpr.org/shows/quality_of_life.php) - A local NPR radio program. It's usually about topics concerning the Central Valley in California, but those outside this area may still find some of the other topics ("quality of life" issues) worthwile.

The Lew Rockwell Show (http://www.lewrockwell.com/podcast/) - We all basically know what this is about, too.

Max Keiser Radio (http://karmabanqueradio.com/) - Finance. You can find Max Keiser's radio here. Great commentary on politics and the economy.

McAlvany Weekly Commentary (http://www.mcalvany.com/podcast/) - Finance. A good weekly show, with interviews, commentary and all that.

Podcrash (http://bureaucrash.com/category/podcrash/) - Already mentioned above.

Patriot Radio News Hour (http://patriotarchives.blogspot.com/) - Finance. A daily show dealing with economic topics of the day. This show is often pretty funny.

Steel On Steel (http://www.steelonsteel.com/) - A weekly commentary on politics, religion and economics. You have to pay to download the full episodes however. It's cheap though. I got a 1 year subscription for a mere 60 dollars. The show ventures on the nutty side IMO with some of the religious talk--of course, I think anything religious is somewhat nutty given I'm an atheist. But John Loeffler is a Christian and I respect that. Even the religious talk can been good at times.

The Libertarian Solution (http://www.libertariansolution.com/audio/) - A weekly show dealing with libertarian political topics and libertarian solutions!

Wall Street Unspun (http://www.europac.net/radioshow.asp) - Finance. We all basically know about this great show.


Yes, I'm probably addicted to this stuff :o. I want to get into more psychology/therapy stuff like what Stefan Molyneux does. I kind of like hearing other people's problems. It helps me out sometimes as well.

I really love National Intel Report (by the way, John Stadtmiller is a Ron Paul guy!). Gerald Celente was the guest yesterday! Broadcast Monday through Friday from 4 - 6 p.m. CST:

"John Stadtmiller, one of America's true radio trailblazers with his early creation of "Republic International" (later renamed "Genesis Communications Network"), and now the "Republic Broadcasting Network", the fastest growing truth radio station in the country. John's "National Intel Report" is hard hitting and to the point with information you won't find in the mainstream media. If you believe the Constitution is the law of the land, but sense that something is seriously wrong in our country, then listen to the "National Intel Report" for the best guests, news and information! "

You can listen live, on-line:

I love EconTalk with Russ Roberts

I did love Bloomberg on the Economy as well but now it's subscription only.

Russ Roberts is defnetly an Austrian, but he interviews are fairly objective same thing with bloomberg so it's good to listen to all sides of the dime.

I also listen to the Demand Side Economics podcast which drives me nuts, but it gives me insights into the Keynesian mind which so quick to generalize... oi...

I subscribe to Reason.tv, The Libertarian Solution, Mises Daily, Cato Institute Podcast, FEE.org podcast, Freedomain Radio, etc.

Listened to this guy a few times in the past, he was a quasi supporter of Ron Paul during the republican primaries.

He is deemed "father of the podcast".
