The Brian D. O’Leary Show October 12, 2023   Try as I may, I still can’t shake not being a sports narrowcaster. The topic still comes up. At some point, I have to accept that it is part of who I am. An interesting thing came up today when I was listening to a podcast that my friend and Natural Order Podcast co-host Adam Haman was on. They mentioned a “Deep Thought” from Jack Handey. That got my wheels spinning, and thus this podcast. Links on topics mentioned are below… Brian O’Leary home page The O’Leary Letter Natural Order Podcast Brian O’Leary on  𝕏-Twitter ...

In this episode, we talk about the 1999 blockbuster The Matrix, but more than that, we dive into the themes of the movie.

I came down pretty hard on the franchise earlier in the week and Nicky P called me on it.

The O'Leary Review
A painful, every day reminder that lunatics remain in charge
I am not sure if it is the age we live in or the circles I travel in—books, podcasts, and articles, etc.—but the proliferation of conversations about what of these different colored “pills” one must take to get through one’s life’s journey…well, it is way too much…

So I said to Nicky, hey, let’s get on the podcast and discuss…

It turned out to be a great discussion and we got into many topics, using The Matrix as the North Star in all of it.

A speech by Tom Woods defining the “red pill.” This is a helpful talk, yet as I explained in my previous email, every “pill” discussion comes with trying to re-learn the nomenclature. I appreciate the concepts of the subject matter, not the content of it.


The Most Important Line in The Matrix ™

Cypher:

“You know, I know this steak doesn’t exist. I know that when I put it in my mouth, the Matrix is telling my brain that it is juicy and delicious. After nine years, you know what I realize? Ignorance is bliss.”


Michael Malice

“A World of Malice” book review by Jeff Deist.

Malice is a fellow who I enjoy very much. I don’t always agree with him and some of his antics are either way above my understanding or way below my tolerance level, but he is in all actuality a serious man with serious ideas.

His podcast “Your Welcome” is a weekly show that usually deals with important and timely ideas existing in the culture-at-large.

Malice describes himself as “anarchist without adjectives.”


Hans-Hermann Hoppe

Hoppe is perhaps the most serious academic alive today. He is a Professor Emeritus of Economics at UNLV and a Distinguished Senior Fellow with the Mises Institute and currently resides in Constantinople, Turkey.

Hoppe is originally from West Germany and moved to the U. S. to study with Murray Rothbard, “Mr. Libertarian.”

Hoppe is also the leading “anarcho-capitalist” philosopher of our time, and while his work is in the “libertarian” sphere, many of his adherents have taken to the “post-libertarian” moniker.


Post-libertarian

Pete Quiñones

Quiñones, over the last two years or so, has transitioned from a “libertarian” to what he calls “post-libertarian.” Pete is one of the thought leaders in this realm, using common sense and practicality as the force for his philosophy or outlook on the world.

The Substack newsletter by Quiñones is a great place to start. He is a serious man and becomes more serious by the day. I’ve been reading and listening to Pete for several years now, and the degree of seriousness has ramped up severely since “covid” took over.

Also, his podcast, The Pete Quiñones Show: Getting Liberty Right is a good meeting place for ideas. Ideas are presented, some are outright rejected, some are embraced, but they are all discussed. In these days, I find The Pete Quiñones Show an indispensable part of my week.


The Progressive Movement

The progressive movement was and is a horrible pox upon humanity.


Alex Epstein

Epstein is a clear and systematic thinker who has a lot of prescient things to say about today’s “climate emergency” so-called. Well worth reading all his material.

I wrote about Epstein in this newsletter

The O'Leary Review
Clowns to the left, jokers to the right
Our precious “democracy” denies a man (or woman) the choice to cast his or her ballot with a vote of “no confidence.” If democracy were in fact the fairest system in all the land, one would think such a reasonable option should be on the table.The O'Leary Review is a reader-supported publication.
