Gamifying Civics to Promote Liberty | Guest: Daniel ‘Free’ O’Connell | Ep 404

How do we teach people about the importance of personal freedom? Politicians give stump speeches; think tanks write white papers, but do any of these methods really reach people?

Matt Kibbe sits down with Daniel O’Connell, who goes by the stage name Free, to discuss using storytelling, pop culture, and even game shows to promote libertarian ideas. Free is the host of “Are You Smarter Than a Politician?” This game pushes guests to think about civics, ethics, and political science in a way that is all too uncommon among the political class or in schools and universities.
