Who is To Blame for High Gas Prices?
Joe Biden takes a lot of flack for high gas prices. Blame him on social media for them, and inevitably someone in the comments says the President has nothing to do with gas prices. Is this true? What causes gas prices to rise to historic rates? And what effect do diesel prices have on inflation? Roy Mathews is a public policy associate at the Alliance for Innovation and Infrastructure (Aii) in Arlington, Va. He has previously been published in RealClearEnergy, National Review, and the National Interest. He is a Young Voices contributor.

Explaining the Dark Corners of the Internet
Social media and talk hosts have recently shared the blame for mass shootings, but these outlets are not the progenitor of ideas like the Great Replacement Theory. They're exploiting the numbers built in darker corners of the internet. While this aired on March 20th, 2019, the information is still sadly as relevant today as it was after the New Zealand shooting. Harry Price and James Nease join me. Nease was one of the first people on 4Chan, and has been a moderator since its beginning. He explains the culture of what the media is mislabeling the "far right." We also discuss the alienation of young men in today's society and what steps we can take to bring people out of isolation and into healthy communities.  Join WAL Plus now for commercial-free shows and our complete archives - JoinWALPlus.com ---- Looking to start a podcast?

What exactly is "disinformation?" Plus, Elon Musk Buys Twitter
We've long talked about social media companies being the lesser censor and turning to the greater censor, the government, to fix the issues with these platforms would be a disaster for free speech. Unfortunately, the Biden Administration is setting up a “Disinformation Governance Board." What could possibly go wrong? We also touch on Elon Musk buying Twitter. We also witness the debut of "Hot Take Harry."

How To Keep Your Sanity in a Sea of Information Using Intellectual Self-Defense with "The Trivium"
Dr. Travis Corcoran wrote a new book called Restoring Reason, and I love the concept. He talks about the Trivium, which is a system of thinking through concepts. The first three pillars of a liberal arts education are grammar, logic, and rhetoric. In other words, capturing knowledge, thinking it through, and then communicating those ideas. How can a systematic approach to information help us combat the discombobulating cascade of information we deal with on a daily basis? Listen as we outline it. In his book Restoring Reason, philosopher Dr. Travis Corcoran demonstrates how the liberal arts provide us with a skillset to evaluate knowledge and draw our own conclusions for clarity, confidence, and freedom. Dr. Corcoran explains the trivium—knowledge, understanding, and wisdom—and the foundation it lays for making high-quality decisions for a high-quality life. Restoring Reason is an intellectual self-defense manual to make sense of the world we live in. Including an analysis of the five biggest social engineers today, including corporate interests and legacy media, this reproducible, systematic framework will help you see truth, deny falsehoods, and lead a fulfilled, independent life.

How to Stop Insider Trading in Congress with Addison Hosner
My jaw dropped when I read the following: "When the nation was facing the COVID-19 pandemic without knowledge of when a vaccine would arise, at least 75 federal lawmakers held shares of Moderna, Johnson & Johnson, and Pfizer — all of which eventually benefited from nearly $6 trillion in relief bills to produce, manufacture, and distribute vaccines to the American public. Congress was directly involved in the creation and passing of these relief bills." Addison Hosner had a great article on the plague of insider trading in Congress, and the Young Voices contributor joins me to detail how we can stop it.

The View From Eastern Europe
Listener Ana and I have been talking a lot about the Eastern European view of the current Russo-Ukrainian War. She's from North Macedonia, which is north of Greece, south of Kosovo, and next to Albania. Her country was founded in 1991 after the dissolution of Yugoslavia, and has been in the constant push and pull of the West and Russia's sphere of influence. She gives us some perspective on life in this position as well as the growing concern in her nation about Putin's militarism.  Video - https://youtu.be/C3HfyL1cVvY Ana - https://www.facebook.com/ocean.charting Chechnya: War Without a Trace - https://tubitv.com/movies/415299/chechnya-war-without-a-trace The Man Without a Face: The Unlikely Rise of Vladmir Putin - https://amzn.to/3ii2Dfa Learn more about your ad choices.
