Ep 383 | Prediction Markets Are Democratizing Information | Guest: Stu Burguiere
29/04/2026 | 1 h 10 min
Prediction markets like Kalshi and Polymarket have attracted controversy, as some interests view them as a form of legalized gambling that ought to be outlawed. A better way of looking at them, however, is as a means to harness the wisdom of crowds to improve our understanding of the world around us. Matt Kibbe sits down with BlazeTV host Stu Burguiere, host of the new show “Predictable,” to talk about how prediction markets not only offer a way for knowledgeable people to make money off their insight, but also are replacing traditional opinion polling, which has been notoriously inaccurate at making predictions, with information that is more specific and granular. It turns out that people tend to be more careful in their analyses of current events when there is actual money on the line.
Ep 382 | FISA 702 is Unconstitutional | Guest: Rep. Thomas Massie
22/04/2026 | 1 h 10 min
President Trump has been vocal about the deep state using FISA Section 702 to violate his rights and spy on his campaign activities. Now that he is in office, however, he is calling for a reauthorization of this same program, claiming that he is willing to give up his Fourth Amendment protections to support the military, despite not being able to point to a single instance when Section 702 was used to apprehend a terrorist. Matt Kibbe sits down with Rep. Thomas Massie (R-Ky.) to talk about the importance of protecting American citizens from government surveillance and how the complete secrecy with which intelligence agencies operate undermines our democracy.
Ep 381 | Our Institutions Are Killing Conversations | Guest: Peter Boghossian
15/04/2026 | 56 min
The inability and unwillingness of young Americans to have conversations across the political aisle has become a major problem, preventing us from having a cohesive and civil society. And it has become clear that a large share of the blame for this can be laid at the feet of institutions like universities. Matt Kibbe sits down with philosopher Peter Boghossian, whose "Street Epistemology" series encourages better discourse between people of different political persuasions. They discuss whether the institutions can be salvaged or whether they need to be completely replaced, whether mass migration is compatible with classical liberalism, and how best to get people to actually listen to each other again.
Ep 380 | How Do We Get Out of Iran? | Guest: Dave DeCamp
09/04/2026 | 1 h 7 min
The U.S. has a history of starting messy wars in the Middle East without a clear exit strategy. By the time the Iraq and Afghanistan wars finally came to an end, there was no easy way for American troops to withdraw without making the situation on the ground worse than it already was. Matt Kibbe and Dave DeCamp, news editor at Antiwar.com, discuss the recent developments in the Iran war — including Trump’s threat to permanently end an entire civilization, the ensuing ceasefire agreement, and the almost immediate collapse of that deal — and question whether there is still a way for Donald Trump to swiftly end the conflict while saving face with voters.
Ep 379 | Afroman Is Vindicated on Free Speech | Guest: Afroman
08/04/2026 | 21 min
After cops raided his house based on false accusations, rapper Afroman wrote an album about the incident, to which police responded with a defamation lawsuit. Last month, he finally won his case, securing an important victory for freedom of speech. Matt Kibbe caught up with Afroman on tour to discuss his interactions with the police, the value of artistic freedom, and the need to hold the government accountable to its citizens.
