Welcome back! In this program we offer the latest news on a District Court Judge's ruling that the "indefinite detention" portion of the National Defense Authorization Act is unconstitutional, and explain how the roots of the act go back to the Bushites and have been expanded by Obama.

Welcome back! We're glad you're part of the conspiracy! In this program, we explore the right to self-ownership and its associated principle, the right to self-defense. We start with a contemporary story about a man who saved many lives by wielding a firearm against assailants, and then delve into the earliest philosophical acknowledgement of the right to self-ownership and self defense. From there, we look at the history of guns in the US, Australia and the UK, and then look at the practical outcomes of allowing more firearms in certain areas. We also look at the mythology that cops are your best protection, and debunk it with PLEASURE!
Enjoy the chat, and pass the word! Also, enjoy the music, featuring a great many cuts by WIRE, including, "On Returning", "Reuters", "The Agfers of Kodak", "I Am the Fly", "Raft Ants", "Want to Ex You" (a new version of "1,2 XU"), "All Fours", "Drill" (live, with Einsturzende Neubaten doing "Vox Populi" - Live in Berlin, 2011), The Prodigy "Piranha", and Inland Sea "Words are Circles"! Look 'em up! Big thanks to Conspirator Tim Humphries for turning us on to Inland Sea. We hope you'll buy some of their music! Look for their music! -- Be Seeing You!

Welcome back to the Conspiracy! In this program we're combine two large pieces from our radio program, both in honor of Adam Yauch, the creative man known as MCA in the Beastie Boys.

You'll get Duane's insightful take on the Beasties career, their influence and impact on music, and the state of so-called "alternative" radio today. We hope you like it! Oh, and there's plenty of Beasties music included in this show, all mixed in! Look for:
"Honky Rink", "Sabotage", "Cookie Puss", "Something's Gotta Give", "Intergalactic", "Sure Shot", "To All the Girls", "Shake Your Rump", "Johnny Ryall", "Dub the Mic", "Car Thief", "Fight for Your Right", and "Gratitude"!

Welcome back to the Conspiracy for freedom! In this program we offer some fun information about the recent pullout by Newty Newt Gingrich, and then join former police officer Bradley Jardis to talk about the immoral so-called "War" on drugs, and to discuss his work with others to try to get the state to recognize the rights of individuals to video record judges and the happenings in court rooms!
That, and an opening song by the Beastie Boys, of course... RIP, MCA.
With additional (and awesome!) music by: Broadcast "Come on, Let's Go", Midlake "Young Bride", The Prodigy "Invaders Must Die", Witch "Rip van Winkle", Kate Nash "Foundations", The Beasties "Looking Down the Barrel of a Gun", Dinosaur Jr. "Little Furry Things', Rufus Thomas "That Woman is Poison", and The Sons of Hercules "Snake People"!

Welcome back to the gang of plotters we call the Liberty Conspiracy! In this program, we offer a podcast version of our May 1, 2012 radio show, on which Gardner Goldsmith covered breaking stories such as the revelation (which we already knew) that Nancy Pelosi lied when she claimed she was not made aware of CIA torture (oh, sorry, "enhanced interrogation in the form of waterboarding, but remember, it's not 'torture' any more, not the way it was in WWII), and we look at the lies of the current President that GM has paid back all of its TARp bailout cash -- Not true by any stretch of the imagination!
Then, we take a good look at a mini debate between Ron Paul and Paul Krugman, going more in-depth and seeing who truly believes in freedom and prosperity. This is a valuable segment unto itself, and we hope you'll recommend it to others!
That and music from Paul Weller ("Green" and "Around the Lake"), Plan B "Welcome to Hell", Telly Saalas "Who Loves Ya Baby?" (REALLY!), Hall and oates "Rich Girl", Government Issue "Jaded Eyes", WIRE "Comet" and "Hard Currency", Silver SUn Pickups "Panic Switch", and Paul Weller again with "No Tears to Cry" (off "Wake Up the Nation")!!

Opening with Kasabian's "Days Are Forgotten", we delve into the forgotten principle of JURY NULLIFICATION, which stems from the ancient Common Law, and which is not mentioned by most judges in contemporary courts. It's an important power that the people have to negate bad laws! Check out the news story and our analysis. Then, listen as El G Grande explains why both Arizona and the gubment cats in DC are wrong in their immigration arguments in the Supreme Court! We go into some valuable information for liberty lovers, and stress the economic benefits of unlimited immigration!
With music by Kasabian, The Fatima Mansions, Girls Against Boys ("Rockets Are Red" and "In Like flynn"), The Sex Pistols ("Bodies" and "Holidays in the Sun" - LIVE!), Steely Dan ("Black Friday"), Morphine ("Super Sex"), Massive Attack ("Man Next Door"), Iggy and the Stooges ("I Wanna Be your Dog") blending into The Cult's homage, ("Phoenix")!

Welcome back to the Conspiracy! In this program, El G Grande takes on the German Court and its recent decision to slam Youtube for 'copyright' infringemnet. We look at alternatives to the gubment "intellecutal property" paradigm, and we listen to awesome music! Oh, and we look at statist assumptions about the enironment, how markets work best to conserve resources, and what resources actually are, and we talk about US bonds and music some more. It's FANTA-SASTIC!!!! :)
In this show, we feature "Strato Streak" by Fu Manchu, "Klein Mandelbrot" by Blue Man Group, "Underbelly" by Pop Will Eat Itself, "On Returning" by WIRE, "Lightsabre Cocksucking Blues" by McLusky, "Personality Crisis" by the New York Dolls, "Collagen Rock" by McLusky, "Collapsing New People" by Fad Gadget, "Stars" by Hum, and "Big, Big City" by Schtum.

Welcome back to the Conspiracy! In this program, we discuss and explore in greater depth a number of issues that are important to liberty lovers. First, Gardner Goldsmith offers information about how police in California invaded a gubment school, took DNA samples of kids without their parents' consent of knowledge, and questioned the kids without informing the parents until after the fact. It brings to mind a nagging question when it comes to the state: do kids have rights?
Then, El G rips apart a bill that will be voted on shortly after this audio is posted. It is called CISPA, and will let the federal gubment circumvent the 4th Amendment when it comes to collecting your private online data. it's a shocking and angering move that will likely pass the House. Contact the federal politicians in your area and tell them to oppose it!
This production has no intro, because we want to get it to you as soon as we can, and El G is doing things that make it impossible for him to record at this time. (Yes, he is "indisposed"!)
Music? Opener is "Maps" by the Yeah, Yeah, Yeahs. Then: Sould Coughing "Super Bon-Bon", Fu Mancu "Cyclone Launch", The Swell Maps "Let's Build a Car", Buzzcocks "What Do I Get?", The Psychedelic furs "Into You Like a Train", The Sons of Hercules "Gimme Some", The Dirtbombs "Don't Break My Hear", and The Prodigy (live) "Their Law" Be Seeing You!

We return at Liberty Conspiracy Audios! In this program, we bring you the news of a Michigan State agency that invaded private property ostensibly to stop the continued ownership of certain outlawed pigs. these pigs, according to the gubment, pose threats to other wildlife if they come into contact, and they could damage the environment. But the kinds of pigs in question is uncertain, and the pigs were priately owned, on private land. Gardner Goldsmith explores the principles of private property and the idea that at this point there are no victims to make claims against these pig owners... How does it look to a person who believes in liberty? Find out! With music by Adam And the Ants, girls Against Boys, Daler Mehndi and the Wolfmen, The Hard-ons, King Crimson, Naked Raygun, and the Psychedelic Furs!

Welcome back to the Conspiracy! In this program, we study the death of the so-called Buffet Rule, and why it would have been a mistake and immoral to pass. Then, Gardner Goldsmith looks at a case that recently went before the US Supreme Court. It's about the Feds FORCING cigarette companies to place photos of autopsies on their products! The idea is not only shocking, it's an infringement on freedom of speech. We take a look at the situation, and hope to offer more in-depth analysis than what one might find on a typical talk radio show.
Thanks for listening! Music in this pod includes: Danko Jones "Time Heals Nothing", The Arctic Monkeys, "Don't Sit Down, Because I've Moved Your Chair", Edwyn Collins "Losing Sleep" and "Do It Again", Killing Joke "The Wait", The Things "Some Kind of Kick", Suicidal Tendencies "Institutionalized", The Circle Jerks "Coupt d'Etat" and The Damned "The Limit Club"!

Welcome back! The Conspiracy reconvenes in portable form! Glad you chose us to place on your music player or stream on your computer. In this awe-inspiring program, El G Grande, aka, Gardner Goldsmith, is joined by Eric Scheiner of CNS news dot com, to discuss Eric's recent humorous look at a sad problem: the federal gubment invading people's homes and telling them how they will live. It's about the lights changing, the water not working properly, and more! That plus an in-depth analysis of the current President's rhetoric and incredibly deceptive statements regarding the idea of making the so-called "wealthy" (um, try to define that, please) pay their so-called "Fair Share" (um please define that) of taxes. As Gard notes, the highest earners already pay nearly a QUARTER of their income in taxes... There's great stuff here, pluse music by SHREIKBACK! We begin with "Sale" by AWOLNATION, then hit Shriekback's "Hammerheads", "Nemesis", "Everything That Rises Must Converge", "Squanderer", "Bittersweet", "Amaryllis In The Sprawl", and "Mahalia"! And we finish with a good one from our friend, Danko Jones, "SLEEP IS THE ENEMY"! BUY HIS STUFF AND SEE HIM LIVE!!!

Welcome back! This is an audio we hope you'll spread to friends. It features our co-host, and fellow Conspirator, Stephen Smith (find his excellent work at http://abeginnersguidetofreedom.blogspot.com) investigating a story from Minnnesota about a $12,000 tip left for a waitress. The story is mysterious, and when the police step in to take the money, it gets political and takes on even greater import. Gard and Stephen open up the subject and begin to look at how it reflects on those who believe, as Ricky Santorum does, that people just can't "be left alone" to lead their lives in peace. This is a very good audio, and it can do a lot to help newcomers to the freedom philosophy to understand one of its key components: market transactions are made by people because they both feel they benefit from the transactions.
Our featured music? Ahh, yes! We open with The Horrors, "Do You Remember", then hit "Gloves" and "Sheena Is a Parasite" by them. Next is, "President Gas", by the Psychedelic Furs, then we offer "Cleopatra 94" by The Concusssion Ensemble, and "Little Fist" by Love Spit Love. Then we hear The Swell Maps, with "Let's Build a Car" and conclude with the epic "Forever Now" by the Furs. Hope you buy their stuff! Enjoy!

Welcome back to the Conspiracy!
In this program, Gardner Goldsmith returns from Salt Lake City and describes his experience being pulled aside by the TSA. HOORAY! Bang the drums of freedom! Blast the trumpets for rights! Then, Gard is joined by Teresa Furbish, as they delve into a story about a PA couple who had their baby taken from them by the gubment for a night. It's a good story to explore as a way to investigate how free market child protection would work. As we conclude that chat, Furb, the man behind the Freedom Book Club, joins us to add his thoughts and to chat with Gard about the new money being issued by Richard Branson for all the visitors at his resorts! Interesting stuff that lets us understand how free-market money would help bring prices for everything DOWN!
Hope you like it! We offer music, too, soooo, here's a listola!
We start with Goldfrapp, "Eat Yourself", then, "Clowns", then, "Pilots", then we offer the duo called Bitter-Sweet, and their songs, "Dirty Laundry" and "The Bomb". These are followed by a tasty helping of Johnny Cash with "Ain't No Grave, and Tom Jones with his great version of the same classic gospel song. We conclude out repaste with Tom's rendition of "If I Give My Soul" and "What Good Am I?" :) Be Seeing You!

Big thanks to Stephan, whos research into the history of copyright and gubment, and whose moral approach to the subject of what is property and how do free people handle the exchange of ideas in a marketplace have fascinated many people. In this program, Gardner Goldsmith and Stephan get together via Skype to talk about the history of copyright in the hands of gubment, the moral and economic troubles it creates, and how the world can do without gubment-enforced "IP" rights.
Good stuff!

In this program,we welcome co-pilot Brianna, who offers a great overview of the history and key components of anarchism. She's a young person, and has already done great research into anarcho-capitalism. In this show, Bri offers a lot of that information and her opinions on gubment getting involved with schooling and with marriage! Great stuff!

Thanks for being a conspirator for freedom. We will plot and plan for a world which acknowledges the primacy of the individual and the moral core of free market interaction. In this program, Gardner Goldsmith becomes one of the FEW media folks who talks about the Executive Order issued by Prez Obama on 3-16 that claims the power to nationalize any product, foodstuff, machine, building, form of energy and person. We're serious, and so is the federal gubment. That, and music from The Cynics and The Sons of Hercules!!!

Greetings! Thanks for choosing to be part of the Conspiracy! In this production of Liberty Conspiracy audios, Gardner Goldsmith explores a story from Lynn, MA, that highlights the conflict between government supposedly protecting one's rights, and government providing "services" to people. That's tied into another current issue, one which is a biggie called HR 347. Just signed into law, it will allow police to arrest anyone protesting or asking difficult questions of a politician who has asked for Secret Service protection. Patently contrary to the first amendment of the US Constitution, this law will now be used to crush dissent by everyone from Tea Partiers to Occupiers, moving the US one step closer to a police state where some very, very bad things can be done to the citizens.
We hope you find the program worthwhile! Included in this show is music by Iggy Pop, Black Flag, Queens of the Stone Age, Maps, Shriekback, The Dirtbombs, Puffy Ami Umi, WIRE, and Guitar Wolf!!!

Welcome back! Thanks for reconvening with the other members of the Conspiracy! In this production, we discuss the news that never seemed to make the news: the fact that the Greek gubment has defaulted. It's one of the most important stories of the year, but is being depicted by the pop media as a "financial solution". It is not, and it has profound implications for the EU, European banks, and, eventually, US banks and the corrupt Federal Reserve. Gardner Goldsmith explains how things might soon shake down, and why so-called "Credit Default Swaps" are so important to understand.
Then, we look into a seemingly small story that has larger implications. It's about a soldier who is in trouble for criticizing the medical fascism law that President Obama helped pass through Congress. Upon hearing the comments from other soldiers that it is their duty to "follow orders", Gard realizes the US military hosts a sizable population of very dangerous people, and they must be fought.
That and music from Blue Man Group, The Psychedelic Furs, The Dukes of Stratosphear, Radio Birdman, Danko Jones, and "Demons" covering Birdman! Enjoy!

Welcome back! We continue pressing the case for liberty, here at the Liberty Conspiracy! In this program we look at the new mandate by the gubment in LA to force porn film makers to have their male actors wear condoms, and we study the argument provided by the Secretary of Health and Human Services that forcing people to provide so-called "contraceptives" is a good way for the gubment to operate.
Lots to hear, and we also talk about some hidden aspects of the new "Rise of the Planet of the Apes" film! With music provided by such cool cats at The Mummies, Plan B, Paul Weller, Raphael Saadiq, and Black Joe Lewis!
