Description

My guest this week is Dr. Patrick Newman, and he is here to discuss the infamous Progressive Era with me. Many people still view the era from 1890-1920 as an era of giant leaps forward for the US: for business, for workers, and for government. As with many aspects of establishment orthodoxy, that couldn't be more wrong. Regulation and crony capitalism have led to many horrific outcomes that we still deal with today. Find out the real history of what should actually be called the Regressive Era, here on Episode 94.

The Counterflow Podcast is a weekly show featuring discussions and interviews with people who are outside of and critical toward mainstream liberal and conservative politics. Counterflow challenges the conventional right/left binary and is concerned with the more important distinction of free vs unfree. The show features thinkers from all backgrounds, who do not fit into the narrow framework of fashionable opinion. The show addresses cultural and lifestyle issues as well as philosophy and politics. Host Buck Johnson (formerly of the Death To Tyrants Podcast) is a musician and firefighter and has always had an interest and drive to go one way while everyone else runs the other direction.
