Mike shows how capitalism is for grown-ups AND for playful kids of all ages, but no one in between. This means individuals, to truly achieve happiness, must learn to produce, to value trade, working hard, and making choices for their own life. It’s also about creativity and simple joys. The true meaning of capitalism and the human experience of thriving is rejecting the unearned and celebrating your growth and the collaboration with others growing with you.

While Defenders of Capitalism are generally skeptical about President-elect Trump’s 2nd term cabinet nominations so far, we are excited about his choice for Energy Secretary: Chris Wright, CEO of Liberty Energy. Wright has a broad understanding of the need for cheap, safe, reliable energy and innovation, as well as the function that free markets play. Mike sat down with Chris in a wide ranging conversation in July of 2023 and we’re re-releasing that episode for our listeners after Chris' recent nomination for Energy Secretary. Original Episode: Energy, Liberty, & the Outdoor Industry with Chris Wright…

The film was made in Italy during World War II and the 80th Anniversary Restoration this year is the first-ever full restoration of this film classic.…
In this episode, we wanted to bring in a unique lens on pro-liberty and capitalism in the media with journalist and economic analyst Brad Polumbo . Mike & Brad cover a lot of ground and explore how young people often identify with their understanding of a freedom ideology, but are frustrated and not wanting to associate with political parties. They discuss the evolving media and mostly biased coverage, policy makers not being held accountable for horrific COVID policies, public schools and colleges nurturing an anti-individual, anti-capitalist approach. While understanding the alienation young citizens are experiencing, Brad provides a positive, often humorous and entertaining message. Brad Polumbo Media: Instagram X (Twitter) YouTube…
Now that the Democratic National Convention is over, we thought it would only be appropriate to talk about Kamala Harris’ VP pick – Tim Walz, current Governor of Minnesota. After our episode about JD Vance , we thought there’s no way Harris was going to choose someone worse than Vance, for anyone who understands and supports capitalism, but she may very well have...…
In this episode, we dive into the Paris Olympic Games with a thought-provoking discussion, acknowledging all the wokeness, Nationalism and culture war BS, but focusing on the pursuit of excellence. We explore how the spirit of competition, innovation, and determination showcased in the Olympics parallels the principles of capitalism. Join us as we celebrate the athletes' achievements, examine the economic impact of the Games, and discuss how the best of human endeavor and entrepreneurial spirit.…
Mike and Mitch discuss Trump's recent VP pick and his anti-capitalist, anti-American Founders views, as well as what it means to be a classical liberal. Voters must again decide between power hungry collectivists and the lessor of evils. Meanwhile, here's what pro-freedom supporters must do....
Drew Esquivel is the 2022 Defenders of Capitalism Runner Up and Vice President of First Bank in Greeley, CO.

We see celebrities, athletes, and very successful entertainers in pop culture who seemingly benefit from capitalism and free markets but are advocates for socialism and other anti-capitalism ideas. Mike and Mitch dive into this paradox and how it impacts society.
After the recent Iran attack on Israel, Mitch and Mike cover the deep connection between the current wars in Ukraine and Israel and the role of defending capitalism.
Bernie Sanders recently proposed a new bill, the "32-Hour Workweek Act". In this proposal, the act would include a reduction to a 32-hour workweek without a decrease in pay or benefits. Although this sounds appealing, Mike and Mitch discuss the possible implications and potential repercussions with a mandated 32-hour workweek. Instead, defenders of capitalism should advocate for freedom in the workplace when it comes to how people want to spend their time, rather than more government force.…
Who Is Poisoning the Blood? Trump's rhetoric. You heard that right -- it's time to call out Trump's rhetoric on immigration in December 2023 (and prior). Capitalism and immigration go hand in hand, and Trump's inability to acknowledge the connection is poisoning politics more than ever before and furthermore letting down the people who follow him. Mitch and Mike shed light on the disturbing quotes from Trump and how they are exactly the opposite of the ideals of capitalism.…
Capitalism is the system of the entrepreneur, and it is that growth mindset that fuels innovation, freedom, and true progress. In this episode, Mike covers the book 10x Is Easier Than 2x by Dan Sullivan (Founder of Strategic Coach) with organizational psychologist Dr. Benjamin Hardy.

Whether or not you are an entrepreneur, the principles of 10x Is Easier Than 2x foster the celebration of success and growth and can be applied in all walks of life.…
