Episode 239: Episode 239 - Sound of Metal (1:21:50)

Actual Anarchy Podcast - AnCap Movie Reviews from a Rothbardian Perspective

Tonight we will be doing “Sound of Metal” with musician, libertarian anarchist and friend, Rocky Ferrenburg.
Sound of Metal is a 2019 Belgian-American drama film directed and co-written by Darius Marder. It stars Riz Ahmed as a metal drummer who loses his hearing and struggles to adjust to his loss of a familiar sense and seeks to find a quick cure rather than embrace and adapt.
Rocky is a great guest to have on for this one and he also just released a book about songwriting that we will discuss.
Next week, by Twitter-poll decree, we will have James Jenneman of Blackbird on to talk about the Robin Williams / Nathan Lane comedy, “The Birdcage”.

Robert and I analyze popular movies from a Rothbardian/Anarcho-Capitalist perspective. We use movies as a starting point for people who may not be familiar with this way of thinking.
Discussion of the plot and decisions that characters make in relation to morality and violations of the non-aggression principle are our bread and butter.
We also will highlight and discuss any themes or lessons from Austrian Economics that we can glean from the film.
The point is to show what anarchy actually is with instances that are presented in film.
We publish at least once per week; and occasionally will do specials surrounding holidays or events (elections/olympics) and have guests.
