The duo wonders how a culture of freedom can endure in the face of shifting circumstances and errant ideologies. Thoughtful, candid, and not afraid of hard truths, Max and James set the stage for a podcast that challenges assumptions and reimagines the future.Our apologies if you’re seeing the same post today.

It also lets you watch video in your email.To repeat:"We’re going to test each episode like SpaceX rockets, knowing that some will explode on the launchpad. Still, we’ll make marginal improvements as we go, learning from our mistakes while not letting the perfect be the enemy of the good.In any case, this podcast will offer you a new way to engage with Underthrow. The written word will still feature prominently; we’re simply expanding into video to provide you with even more value for your subscription.To the supporters who make this possible, thank you kindly. If you’ve been on the fence but want to provide some rocket fuel, help us make it into the stratosphere."Amen.My son, James S. Borders, executed the production, editing, and sound wizardry.
