The Tom Woods Show

Listeners of the Tom Woods Show will recognize the name Gret Glyer, the young man who spent three years living in Malawi, the world's poorest country at the time, in order to help the most vulnerable and who, at age 26, launched the outstanding DonorSee app, which allows givers to see video footage of the actual effects of their donations. Gret was shot to death in his Fairfax, Virginia, home on June 24, 2022. This episode is in remembrance of him.

What does it mean when coders tell you something is "open source"? My guess is that most people have no idea. But we should, because we could use a little positive news right about now, and the open source phenomenon is a powerful illustration of our ideas in action.

This is one of my favorite interviews of all time: I had a chance to appear on the Viva & Barnes podcast, hosted by attorneys Viva Frei and Robert Barnes, and I introduced their audience to the Mises Institute's brand of plumb-line libertarianism. The response was fantastic.
