I had the immense privilege recently of going on the Bob Murphy Show podcast and talking about the Top 10 Libertarian Rock Bands!
https://www.bobmurphyshow.com/ep-65-matt-bankert-makes-his-case-for-top-ten-libertarian-rock-bands/
Bob is a PhD economist and political philosophy super-hero. For some reason, he agreed to talk to me. I had a blast.
If you are just joining, PLEASE make sure you see my recent post about my new song, Enlighten Me:
I am pleased to announce that my brand new song, Enlighten Me, is now available universe-wide anywhere you listen to or purchase digital music (emphasis on the purchase)!
I’d love to hear what you think!
If one new song is not enough for you, give a listen to October’s Libertarian Rock playlist (which happens to include Enlighten Me)!

| Soundgarden | The Day I Tried to Live | “I stole a million beggars’ change and gave it to the rich” – sounds like a certain Central Bank we all know! Isn’t this generally the folly of government programs? If one miscalculation doesn’t work, the solution is to add more and more miscalculations on top of it. “One more time around might do it.” |
