    It started with a question from my son: “What do you think about book bans?” The answer isn't really about books. It's about liberty. If we genuinely believe in self-determination, we have to accept that other people may read things we despise, hear arguments we believe are wrong, and even reach conclusions we wish they wouldn't. The answer to bad speech is better speech. The answer to bad ideas is better ideas. And when government makes an idea forbidden, it may accomplish the exact opposite of what it intended: turning bad ideas into forbidden knowledge and fools into martyrs. Plus, what happens when 23 people can bring much of an essential transportation system to its knees? Washington State Ferries provides a rather expensive lesson in what happens when efficiency replaces redundancy and planning. It's a conversation about liberty, responsibility, government, and why learning to think may matter more than being told what to think.

  • Franklin in Paris: The Diplomat Who Made the Revolution a World War
    2026/10/06
    In 1776, Benjamin Franklin was seventy years old, suffering from gout, and boarding a Continental warship for a dangerous winter crossing of the Atlantic. His mission? Convince France that the American Revolution was worth betting on. This week on Dave Does History, follow Franklin from the deck of the Reprisal to the salons of Paris, where celebrity, secret diplomacy, British spies, American privateers, and a certain blue velvet suit all become part of the fight for independence. Then Saratoga changes everything. What began as a rebellion against Britain becomes a global war, and the diplomatic road Franklin helped build ultimately leads all the way to Yorktown.

  • Givernment can Move Mountains... For a Price
    2026/10/05
    Government promises to save you money. Somehow, it usually finds another way to collect it. On this episode of Plausibly Live, Dave looks at the curious art of government cost engineering: California politicians and their cars, property-tax “relief,” and why the enormous cost of the death penalty may tell us as much about government as it does about capital punishment. Then we head to North Korea, where Kim Jong Un managed something even government accountants haven't pulled off yet: he made the mountain move. Taxes, nukes, unintended consequences, and why Dave still refuses to read your email.
