He is a Wellington journalist and author whose work has been widely published in New Zealand and around the world. His writings have appeared in The New York Times, The Spectator, The Jerusalem Report and The Christian Science Monitor. He is the author of six books, the latest of which, Book of Cohen, had to do with the late Leonard Cohen. He describes his personal enthusiasms as poetry, philosophy and Middle Eastern cooking. The last he has parlayed into a popular newsletter called Middle Feast--which he says is currently finding an appreciative readership at a time such as this when governments have shut down the economy and told people to stay in their own kitchens.

Hosted by Amy Peikoff. In September 2013, after hearing Ted Cruz's "filibuster" on Obamacare, in which he exhorted everyone to read Ayn Rand's Atlas Shrugged, I did a show here at BlogTalk, asking "Is Ted Cruz 'The Guy'?" The answer: yes, based on everything we knew at the time, it seemed so. Now, with Cruz vowing to make same-sex marriage a central issue of his Presidential campaign, as well as proposing a Constitutional amendment that would make Supreme Court tenures subject to retention elections, is Cruz a candidate who still deserves our support?   01:30:00Amy PeikoffnoTed Cruz,Same-Sex Marriage,Supreme Court,Constitutional Amendment,Election 2016Given Cruz's reaction to the Supreme Court's same-sex marriage ruling, is he still a candidate worthy of support?https://www.blogtalkradio.com/amypeikoff/2015/07/04/dligu-the-right-to-marry-is-not-the-right-to-use-your-marriage-as-a-clubPoliticshttps://www.blogtalkradio.com/amypeikoff/2015/07/04/dligu-the-right-to-marry-is-not-the-right-to-use-your-marriage-as-a-club/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/amypeikoff/2015/07/04/dligu-the-right-to-marry-is-not-the-right-to-use-your-marriage-as-a-clubSat, 04 Jul 2015 03:00:00 GMTDLIGU: The Right to Marry is not the Right to Use Your Marriage as a ClubThe Supreme Court reached the right result on same-sex marriage, but for the wrong reasons. What's worse, some in the "LGBT" community are saying that marriage wasn't really the goal, that their goal was to *force* those who reject same-sex marriage to deal with them as they would any other couples.

Afterwards, I'll be joined again by cartoonist Bosch Fawstin and we'll discuss some of the events of the week and more. NOTE: A little over an hour into the show our audio link to the studio was irreparably cut off. We tried to reconnect a few different ways, multiple times, but to no avail. So, once you hear the Vivaldi music in the recorded podcast, you can stop listening, rest assured that there's nothing more of substance. We eventually gave up after about 10 minutes of trying to reconnect. Next show will be in two weeks due to The Undercurrent Conference next weekend. (I see, above, that BTR may have stopped recording after an hour and 4 minutes or so.)         01:05:00Amy Peikoffnopolitics,Ayn Rand,news,culture,philosophyWeekly live webcast/podcast devoted to discussion of news and politics from the perspective of Ayn Rand's philosophy, Objectivism.

Hosted by Amy Peikoff. Today's show title was inspired (pun intended) by the juxtaposition of two stories about the future of education in the United States. One story is about a new startup that aims to inspire grade school children to love and learn about science. The other is about a White House official who, after considering the system of educational indoctrination in China, concluded that, even in the United States, "high schools probably have a significant ability to move students toward what they consider 'a correct worldview, a correct view on life, and a correct value system.'" But, as we'll see, the theme can be carried beyond the realm of education, to Obama's use of his "pen and a phone," to his characterization of Obamacare, to Islam and other totalitarian religions, and more. This dichotomy might even help explain the success of non-liberal talk radio! Check out program notes for today's show at www.dontletitgo.com.

We'll look at our nation's actions, culture and sense of life, and ask: How are we doing in 2014 vs. in 1971, when Rand published the original essay? In the process we'll be discussing, as usual, some recent news stories.

Hosted by Amy Peikoff. Today we can't resist talking about the Obama Administration lackey who called Brett Baier "Dude" on Fox News yesterday. It's a perfect encapsulation of the Obama Administration: Its conviction that it has the media in its pocket, its contempt for the American people, its lack of decorum, its refusal to be held accountable---both for its failure to do its job, and for its insistence on doing a whole bunch of things that aren't its job. A number of the stories we will discuss today touch on this theme, but there's a lot more as you'll see in the program notes at www.dontletitgo.com. 02:01:00Amy Peikoffnopolitics,Ayn Rand,news,culture,philosophyWeekly live webcast/podcast devoted to discussion of news and politics from the perspective of Ayn Rand's philosophy, Objectivism.

An "Interfaith Panel" demands the removal of all mention of "Islamic terrorism" -- from the 9/11 Memorial!

Hosted by Amy Peikoff. The originator of the proverb, "When life gives you lemons, make lemonade," did not have in mind the sort of "lemons" we are being handed today: foreign and domestic policies that are, without exaggeration, anti-life. What are you doing--or what do you plan to start doing--to make lemonade out of this rotten fruit while working to save the country? We'll start in the first hour by discussing some of this week's lemons, while devoting the second hour to the making of lemonade.

There's been speculation about the motivation behind the publication of a study threatening world destruction as the result of even a "small" nuclear war. Is Obama planning unilateral nuclear disarmament? I'll argue that we're already unilaterally disarmed, even with enough nukes to destroy the world several times over.

We'll start this week's show with some advice for preparing yourself, mentally and physically, for the work we have to do. Then, we'll discuss the deal, who's responsible for it, and what we can do to help Senators Ted Cruz, Mike Lee, among other decent politicians (there aren't many). We need to turn up the pressure on the GOP leadership and their cronies, and then make sure Cruz & Lee get some serious backup in 2014. I'll also explain why, even though I am not a member of the Tea Party, I see a war on Tea as a war on me.   Program notes will be available, as usual, shortly before showtime at www.dontletitgo.com.02:01:00Amy Peikoffnopolitics,Ayn Rand,news,culture,philosophyWeekly live webcast/podcast devoted to discussion of news and politics from the perspective of Ayn Rand's philosophy, Objectivism.

Weekly live webcast/podcast devoted to discussion of news and politics from the perspective of Ayn Rand's philosophy, Objectivism. Hosted by Amy Peikoff. A recent Fox News poll says that only 8% of Americans believe that "the people are in charge of the government." And, while the Constitution says the House has the power of the purse, Obama seems to think they should provide unlimited funding for him to create his egalitarian utopia. One NYT columnist is even urging Obama to ignore the rule of law and unilaterally raise the debt ceiling if the House Republicans demand concessions from him. I don't know about you, but I find this attitude unacceptable. Join in on the discussion today, either by phone or in the chat room. Or, if you're listening to a podcast recording, chime in on my blog at www.dontletitgo.com. Today we'll also discuss the Common Core, a program that entails the Federal Government taking more control over the education of our children. And more.

Hosted by Amy Peikoff.   Showcasing their tremendous powers of evasion, the Senate has voted 79-19 for cloture on the continuing resolution (CR). As I type this, the Senate is voting to remove the language in the House CR that defunded Obamacare. So today's show will unfortunately not be a victory celebration, although ultimate victory is still possible, depending on what the House does in the coming days (and, possibly, weeks).   What I would like to do today is celebrate the fact that we have a politician in the U.S. Senate who is willing to stand up against socialized medicine, in a principled way. And the bonus: he read several passages from Ayn Rand's work in the process of doing so.02:00:00Amy Peikoffnopolitics,Ayn Rand,news,culture,philosophyWeekly live webcast/podcast devoted to discussion of news and politics from the perspective of Ayn Rand's philosophy, Objectivism.

So much so, that he's planning to postpone part of it until after the 2014 election. But can he get away with it? Not only is Obama's move subjecting him to widespread criticism, including a counter-proposal by the GOP, but it may even be illegal.

In the meantime The Guardian UK is busy releasing more details about our government's massive surveillance programs, details we know thanks to Snowden.   The Supreme Court's rulings this Wednesday: exactly how are they favorable to gay marriage, and a discussion of the gay marriage issue in general.   Plus more if there's time, but the second hour is reserved for a massive, super-spoiler-filled discussion of MAN OF STEEL :)02:00:00Amy Peikoffnopolitics,Ayn Rand,news,culture,philosophyWeekly live webcast/podcast devoted to discussion of news and politics from the perspective of Ayn Rand's philosophy, Objectivism.

Hosted by Amy Peikoff. PLANNED TOPICS: Can you have integrity and cast a ballot for Romney/Ryan? Does the fact that Johnson might attract Obama voters, too, mean that we shouldn't care if he ciphons off Romney voters? Is Paul Ryan "evil," while Obama is merely a "Peter Keating"? We continue our "Intervention" series by addressing these questions, and others, as well as the issue of energy subsidies under Obama. Also Neil Armstrong and Apple. 01:00:00Amy Peikoffnopolitics,Ayn Rand,Objectivism,culture,philosophyWeekly live webcast/podcast devoted to discussion of news and politics from the perspective of Objectivism, the philosophy of Ayn Rand.

Hosted by Amy Peikoff. PLANNED TOPIC: Earlier this week the Libertarian party sent out an e-mail bragging, "Libertarian Presidential Candidate Gov. Gary Johnson Could Deprive Mitt Romney of 5 battleground states, 74 Electoral Votes, 27% of the Electoral Votes needed to win in 2012." Bosch and I think it's therefore the perfect time to start what we're calling our "Intervention for Gary Johnson Voters" series. We will, in the coming weeks, be bringing you stories that show what it will be like if Obama is elected for another term. Listeners can then decide whether helping to bring this about is something they want to do -- or brag about doing. 01:01:00Amy Peikoffnopolitics,Ayn Rand,Objectivism,culture,philosophyWeekly live webcast/podcast devoted to discussion of news and politics from the perspective of Objectivism, the philosophy of Ayn Rand.
