They begin by talking about the importance of alternative media platforms as well as the shortcomings of mainstream media.

They then discuss Dumo's organisation - ManPatria, and Dumo's journey thereto.

Further, they speak about the views Dumo holds as an Austro-Libertarian and what it means to be one.

Finally, the conversation returns to alternative media as they briefly discuss the challenge of getting liberal message out there when mainstream media - and the consumers thereof - are all for and about the leftist agenda. ]]> Politics Sun, 30 Apr 2023 06:00:00 +0200 0 0 Dumo Denga on Alternative Media 0 0 Philasande Shongwe full 51:54 Freedom Fanatics https://iono.fm/e/1286880 https://iono.fm/e/1286880
We first discuss the context in which the book was written, after which - in our style of a book review, we discuss the key insights found in the book. We discuss rational egoism (as seen in Nikolay Chernyshevsky's "What is to be done?"), the pursuit of a utopia, collectivism vs individualism, the rationality vs the irrationality of human beings in the context of freedom, and the warnings and lessons we can draw from the "Underground Man".

The conversation then veers toward what the South African reader (and voter) can learn from the insights and events of the Underground man.

"Notes from Underground" is a short, impactful, and extremely well-written piece of existentialist writing, by a fantastic author. We recommend that you pick up a copy! ]]> Politics Sun, 05 Mar 2023 13:44:00 +0200 0 0 Discussing Dostoevsky's "Notes from Underground" with Simesihle Zulu 0 0 Philasande Shongwe full 39:48 Freedom Fanatics https://iono.fm/e/1274966 https://iono.fm/e/1274966
The Free Market Foundation is an independent Public Benefit Organisation founded in 1975 to promote and foster an Open Society, the rule of law, and economic and press freedom as fundamental components of its advocacy of human rights and democracy based on classical liberal principles.

David begins by clarifying what he means by "Free Market" and quickly dispels some lingering myths about it. In addition to this, David elaborates on the values that the Free Market Foundation stands for.

Further, David talks about what he would like to achieve and why he thinks that South Africa is desperate for Free Market ideas.

Finally, David and Phila talk about the current economic climate in South Africa, drawing on some tangible issues that urgently need addressing.

They begin by talking about the importance of Johan Fourie's book, stressing the importance of an economic history book written from an African perspective. Professor Fourie proceeds to talk about how his lectures motivated him to write the book.

Further, Professor Fourie talks about the driving forces behind the prosperity that the planet has witnessed over the past 200 years, arguing that it is not due to exploitation and autarky, but rather innovation, interdependence and trust.

Professor Fourie and Phila proceed to talk about slavery and other forms of tyranny, briefly highlighting their inception, and how they have shaped the world we live in today.

Finally, they talk about the economic history discipline more generally and its projections for the future.
