Podcast Reviews

Good Mix
August 20, 2018 by BigSkyCo from United States
Great mix politcs and humor. I love the cast of characters, even Vibbs.
Best Libertarian Podcast.
July 20, 2018 by Alistair K. Nye from United States
Without a doubt the best libertarian podcast out there. Deeply insightful, smart, funny as hell, and easy to understand even when they dive deep. They are neither left or right, libertarianism at it's best. It's 'üge.
Best intro to Libertarianism
April 7, 2018 by TILAME from United States
Highly recommend for independents and libertarian-curious. Casual dialouge, informed hosts, and great recent changes that focus more on current events than personal relationships. The host remains largley non-partisan, and critical of every party, including the Libertarian Party. The host has an engaging voice, and the episodes are long, so it is perfect for work or long drives.
Great Show
March 28, 2018 by Davistribe50 from United States
Easy to follow. They talk about things that matter to most people. A fresh look you won't get elsewhere.
If you feel orphaned by the two parties, welcome home.
November 27, 2017 by Rainbow Chardy from United States
I’ve never fit into the left or right, soon realized I was a Libertarian but still didn’t feel like I had resources or a community to tune into where ideas where treated in a way that RESONATED. Enter WAL. Such a great feeling to find others like myself. Only suggestion? I wish there was a woman—shoot I wish I *was* the woman! Let me know if I can contribute!—and sometimes it’s total boy nerddom...which is fine but I would totally dig a woman(s) interaction in the mix. You guys are great and don’t stop!
Best libertarian podcast
October 7, 2017 by BoomJake from United States
My favorite political podcast. Chris Spangle and his team have great chemistry and are well researched. I laugh and learn every episode.
Long time listener
July 9, 2017 by Chris JV Chris JV from United States
Rewriting this review because this show has been excellent lately. Been listening for a while and you guys are doing a great job improving the quality of this show. What differentiates it is that Chris is a left leaning libertarian, Greg is a right leaning libertarian and Harry is an anarchist. It's interesting having those three strands of the modern libertarian movement interact on current events. Cat is actually a decent addition.
Equally Political and Entertaining
July 1, 2017 by Really nice music from United States
One of my favorite political podcast. This show will go as deep as any other show you may listen to, but it's also one of the funnest shows out there. Greg is incredibly thorough in his research and him and Chris are a true dynamic duo.
Deplorable Cucks
June 28, 2017 by RazmanianDevil from United States
Okay the title seems negative, but these guys get that humor. This podcast has been a diamond in the rough for me. They're more professional and intelligent than you would think and just childish enough in their dialogue to hold my attention. My new favorite and they have 100% my support.
Love it.
June 24, 2017 by @troybotkins from United States
Love the show!
A breath of fresh air
June 7, 2017 by Kristi Liberty from United States
I've recently gone back and listened to the episodes from the beginning. A great show from Episode 1 to Episode 211. The hosts may change around a bit, but the show brings great Liberty oriented content on a consistant basis. I even <3 the opening banter!!!!
normie poison
June 6, 2017 by Millennail Liberty from United States
The only people who don't like WAL are statists, normies, and boomers.
Intellegent, Funny, and Wild
June 6, 2017 by Kyllat from United States
Love it. Yuge podcast network. They have the best words.
Listen to every episode
June 6, 2017 by cmurray1105 from United States
This is such a great podcast. Chris Spangle is the bees knees. I love the show!
Great show
May 11, 2017 by Bald Jordan from United States
Other phone crashed again. Idk what's going on with it. Where are you at?
Entertaining and informative
May 4, 2017 by Kent1423 from United States
We Are Libertarians provides an honest and unique perspective on modern political goings on. They present the side of the news that mainstream media ignores because they aren't beholden to any corporate overlords. It's informational, but also FUN! Too many libertarian podcasts forget the importance of having fun while presenting ideas.
Tad Western approves ??
April 21, 2017 by Tad Western from United States
WAL is the pinnacle of political podcasts!
Great show!
April 16, 2017 by jennbgray from United States
Libertarians can get pretty wonky sometimes, so it's great to have a more relatable alternative.
Thank you Dear Leader
March 30, 2017 by zwansong76 from United States
Entertaining and informative. Who but Spangle & Lenz could use the word praxeology in a conversation, and make it FUNNY? Good stuff.
Podcast? More like hot bodcast!!
March 25, 2017 by Cale Tompkins from Canada
Amirite?!? Not only are these men smart but they're in peak physical condition. I can hear their virility over the airwaves.
Good usually
March 20, 2017 by MrKrabbs1 from United States
If you can get beyond the self congratulatory circle jerk that occurs basically every episode, it can be pretty enjoyable. However, like all other libertarian podcasts, the hosts like to pay themselves on the back excessively and bask in their accomplishments--real or imagined.
Favorite libertarian podcast
March 10, 2017 by Extreme iOS user from United States
Lots of great guests. Worth a listen. A little light on philosophy, but it makes for that by being very entertaining.
Informing and Entertaining!
March 3, 2017 by 1233554367585$29 from United States
I love this podcast so much! The cast is pretty diverse (maybe get some more women), and they have a variety of different types of shows. Some are more informational about news from a libertarian perspective, and others are more emotional and talk about libertarian solutions to current government created problems. The cast is also pretty hilarious, which makes the longer podcasts very easy to listen to.
The most fun you will have listening to political banter!
January 30, 2017 by Ben DeJong from United States
If you are a libertarian minded or even lib curious, this is the podcast for you! I have listened to a dozen different libertarian podcasts and no one blends humor with topical political insight from a true libertarian point of view as perfectly as Greg and Chris. Keep up the great work guys!!!
This is by far my favorite podcast.
January 26, 2017 by Americamericafreedom1234usa from United States
So inviting. So intelligent. So funny. So crude. So philosophical. Wow.
Wish it was more than once a week
January 19, 2017 by Elvis236 from United States
I love this podcast. Superb libertarian talk and political/media criticism and commentary. I could listen to Chris and Greg for hours. Keep up the great work guys.
Amazing
January 2, 2017 by Davgr007 from United States
A great libertarian podcast!
Love y'all!
December 9, 2016 by Cynd1966 from United States
I recently discovered your podcast. I have known for years that I lean towards the Libertarian party. I first learned of the Libertarian movement from listening to Neal Boortz. And even today I still listen to him after his retirement. It is great to hear others who share some of the same opinions.
Worth Your Time
November 23, 2016 by Reasonable01 from United States
This is a really great way to ease into politics if you haven't really paid attention before. The hosts are funny and very well informed. Also, their unabashed criticism of both democrats and republicans makes the entire podcast seem a lot more honest.
Great Show
November 22, 2016 by DaneKirk from United States
One of my favorite podcasts. The analysis is right on and much better than the garbage you get from the MSM.
Very informative and eye opening.
September 9, 2016 by AndrewBowman91 from United States
As Chris says in the intro, they make sense of the world around us by thinking differently. I highly encourage everyone to listen to their entire postcast family. You will not be dissapointed. By presenting topics in a way that brings several views to the table, Chris, Greg, and No Show Anagnos, and #NeverBitner + guests, provide real commentary. I always enjoy listening and appreciate the work the entire team puts forward to providing the content. Everyone who contributes has something meaningful to say and I have learned something new every episode.
Becca
August 2, 2016 by Beccakephart from United States
I think I finally realized why as a generally liberal democrat that I love this podcast so much. Chris and Greg (and others) have a special gift in that they are able to challenge my political conclusions without elliciting a defensive response. That's rare and appreciated. Keep up the good work.
Amazing
June 12, 2016 by MrNye from United States
A great look at both politics and principles. You'll laugh and learn, and what's better than walking away knowing more and having had a great time learning?
These guys are #SoBrave
April 24, 2016 by Clitcommader from United States
This podcast touches me where my feels are. It's like hanging out with some friends and discussing what's going on in the world, yet I'm just listening. I'm addicted, the first thing I do when I wake up is to see if there is a new episode to listen to. I can't believe how brave Belinda is....
Great!
April 6, 2016 by CD Kauai from United States
Love that they sometimes drink beer and eat pizza while discussing libertarian subjects and deal with the cats in the room!

One of the most funny and fun podcast to listen to, and they bring on interesting people from multiple viewpoints.
Best Libertarian Comedy Podcast!
February 3, 2016 by Ecc3_15 from United States
Very enjoyable and funny. This is probably my favorite podcast.
Wonderful podcast
January 22, 2016 by p_aaron_oid from United States
These guys are informative all while not taking themselves to seriously. Sometimes you start to believe you are in the apartment having a conversation with them.
Trust me. I´m listening for more than 2 years
January 19, 2016 by The Iluminado from United States
I´ve been following these guys since about the 20th episode. That was the golden time when their main mission was to teach us about some basics of the libertarian stuff and discuss some of the current political status. I´ve learned a lot. For the episodes 20-60 that format got its momentum with some hard and thrilling discussions, especially when Geena was on. Then we got a series of confusing programs when our Great Leader went missing, due some kind of menace from the Great White North. That where some hard times. Then Our Dear Leader came back with some new guidelines, bought some cats, lost weight, started working on the hours of a 18th century farmer.... The enlightenment came under new fatwas and here I am... I dear listener for more that 2 years and a true fan.
Great Pod
January 5, 2016 by VinnyAnders from United States
Chris and co are always informative and present their opinions from differing perspectives. Entertaining and fun!

The Only Politics Podcast
November 6, 2015 by The Only Politics Podcast from United States
My husband started listening to podcasts earlier this year, and of all the politics podcasts he listens to, this is the only one I will listen to with him. At first I thought it was weird, but now I get upset with him when he listens to them without me. I subscribed to the podcast just so I can listen to the ones he doesn't save for us to listen to together.
Excellent
October 19, 2015 by Simba. L13 from United States
Great discussion with a great group of differing opinions and personalities. They have given me a lot to think of and are a very fun listen.
Fresh and Hilarious Take on Politics & Current Events
June 4, 2015 by FlyinRyan7 from United States
If you’re looking for a podcast that mixes current events, politics, libertarianism, and humor, look no further. This podcast is dynamite and includes a crazy cast of hilarious participants that will leaving you intrigued, perplexed (...Miah...), fired-up, touched, laughing or some combination all led by Chris “Dear Leader/The House I Live In” Spangle. Hands down this is my go-to pod cast and I’m pumped to see what these guys/gals do in the future.
Good Stuff
May 23, 2015 by DaveJones*** from United States
WAL is fun and informative. Highly recommended!
A great podcast!
May 18, 2015 by cxykttn6969 from United States
Dear Leader and his subordinates bring a delightful insight into the current happenings of our country! This podcast has a wide array of characters ranging from the slightly dopey (Greg Lenz) to the very exotic (Joe Ruiz ) and The powerful (Chris Spangle!)
Truly a great Political/Current Events Podcast
May 9, 2015 by Touch001 from United States
I can’t recommend this podcast enough, I’ve been listening for a couple years and its only gotten better, it is both entertaining, humorous, informing, and educational. It’s easy to listen to and you laugh and enjoy the time spent listening to it. Keep up the good work guys!
A Circle of Friends
April 30, 2015 by graphicahead from United States
For someone who is exposed to very few people who think deeply about the impact of philosophy and politics on their daily lives, WAL provides water in the oasis. I discovered the show very early in my exploration of the libertarian worldview. Without this resource, I may not have felt as connected to the sometimes complex concepts one encounters in academic writings and the daily unfolding of current events. A listener who wishes to hear a range of ideas for applying the philosophy of liberty, rather than being bombarded with singular and absolutist positions, WAL is the podcast for you. The down to earth and unscripted discussion is authentic and genuine and makes you feel as though you are a participant amongst a circle of friends.
Open your Mind
April 29, 2015 by Sawzall582 from United States
Consider liberty and freedom with a cast of independant thinkers. Current event analysis and Libertarian philosphy are both explored. Give these freethinkers a chance. One feels like a part of the discussion as topics are explored.
Where Are You?
April 25, 2015 by hollenjj from United States
Guys, on episode 104 you did not close with the tag line. I know Greg was not on the show, but come on...ya gotta do it. Great shows every episode and I love that you're back more frequently. You guys rock, but on the tag line...next time... "Try to do better next time". ?
great
April 18, 2015 by you can call me papi from United States
at first i thought, great... another minarchist podcast but these guys really are great political new and commentary. good job, my only advice is easy on the rand paul jerk
So Good
April 14, 2015 by RedSoxFan207 from United States
I love listening to this podcast! Informative, many points of views, and funny
Doesn't take itself too seriously
April 12, 2015 by Cdanl2 from United States
This is an entertaining discussion-format podcast discussing a variety of political issues - but unlike a bunch of other libertarian podcasts, it doesn't take itself too seriously, and entertains as much as it informs.
Fresh and informative
April 7, 2015 by badfishgood from United States
Rand boners. Mazel tov cocktails. Al Spanghdadi. Hilary's womb. It doesn't get more entertaining than this... 5/5 will listen to again.
Foreign policy - Lenz is spotless.
April 6, 2015 by Kirk French Jr. from United States
I started listening to WAL in Spring of '14. Since the political dicussion covers a variety of topics, it's important to find authors, audiobooks, and podcasts, that keeps you interested in the ideas surrounding the topics. The hosts do a great job of uniting politics and humor. They keep you laughing while maintaining a solemn temperament. They do a solid job in covering as many topics in each episode, so don't worry if you missed it; eventually, it will be discussed. A must have subscription for any person who wants to be involved in the discussion or just wants to know what's going on. Personally, I enjoy the foreign policy discussions the most.
Great Podcast from a liberty perspective
April 4, 2015 by Goulio05 from United States
These Guys are very informative and have good entertaining banter. They will also force you to examine your own perspective.
Converted!
April 4, 2015 by Kiltedman5332 from United States
After years of feeling disappointed with both democrats and republicans I have finally discovered why. I am a Libertarian! These podcasts are totally on point. Love listening. So proud to have gone to high school with these guys.
Great
April 4, 2015 by Eye_see from United Kingdom
Like a bunch of great friends selling you all things libertarian.
Wildly Sub-Par
April 3, 2015 by Mike Pence from United States
When I think of what I want to listen to while I choke the chicken, I come straight to this. The sound of their political ramblings really get me off.
Very honest varied perspectives
April 3, 2015 by Torchstone from United States
Not your normal crap. A very good mix of opinion that shows that not only is everyone their own man (or woman, or man turned woman ;-) but libertarians themselves are a mixed bag as well.
Great Podcast
April 2, 2015 by PurplelyPurp from United States
Good podcast for new libertarians.
Political commentary that doesn't take itself seriously
April 2, 2015 by Jonnyprince from United States
This is very easy to digest commentary from a libertarians perspective. Excellent for those new to the Liberty movement or just curious to see what it's all about. It helps that it's pretty funny, too.
Great Show
April 2, 2015 by Akpalmer1979 from United States
Great show with insight you don't get from mainstream media.
I like it
February 26, 2015 by SkiBum 1978 from United States
This is a pretty good podcast for newbie Libertarians.

Best Libertarian Podcast
November 25, 2013 by PNWdankery from United States
This is easily one of my favorite podcasts week after week. I like how each person on the show brings their unique views to the show and they always cover excellent talking points. Very informative, and always get a few laughs.
Awesome
November 14, 2013 by Pug IBMC from United States
Great show. Knowledgeable fellas. Good time listening to the show.
Very Solid
November 3, 2013 by rcon14 from United States
Informative and exposed me to some topics I was initially unfamiliar or uninformed on. Love the interviews as well. Helps add current resolutions to the issues. Like the range of libertarian views, gives a wide perspective.
Mr.
September 10, 2013 by SandersTactical from United States
Awesome pod cast! Very intelligent, informed, and entertaining hosts! They offer opinions across the Libertarian spectrum providing a well rounded response to each issue presented. These guys and gals are a great resource for all Liberty loving individuals.
Great show!
September 10, 2013 by Brent J. from United States
I stumbled across this show a few weeks ago and find it very interesting. Despite the Indiana-centric elements not being relevant to me as a Minnesotan, the show is great! Episode 58, was very interesting and thought provoking!
A new addiction
August 15, 2013 by PaulVCope from United States
I look forward to this podcast more than anything else each week. If you want commentary on the latest happenings in the world, this podcast delivers without question. Even though they are all libertarians there is plenty of back and forth with very different views.
These guys get it.
August 3, 2013 by Brad@MyHeroesThink from United States
Its funny. Co-workers just think I'm listening to music all day. But instead, I'm immersed in a conversation between a gang of Libertarians. It's great, and it makes my day fly by. Smart people. Great flow. Its just what I was looking for...
WAL is the best
July 18, 2013 by sbarber12542 from United States
One of my favorite podcasts. the thing I like about it is that the host and co-hosts can have seriuos conversations about politics and then go off on a tangent that is absolutly hilariuos. The best episodes are the ones were you guys are unprepared and off the cuff. Chris Spangle is the best host and makes the podcast awesome. Any podcast with himk on it is awesome keep up the good work guys. Also if you could talk about some good books for the newly converted libertarian that would be great!
My favorite podcast and best source for libertarian talk
July 13, 2013 by Jluginbyhl from United States
I have listened to every show. They are all great. Sometimes they are very informative and other times very entertaining. It's a great cast. I look forward to every new show.
Awesome!
July 7, 2013 by AngrySoft from United States
Instead of wasting all their time talking about issues, they just come across as some average nerds talking to each other!
Great stuff!
May 15, 2013 by Rat Poux from United States
Love the discussions on current events and politics and happy to see a lively Libertarian podcast out there! Keep the great work coming guys. =D
I find myself joining the debate alone in my car...
May 14, 2013 by dasher528 from United States
This podcast is the best libertarian podcast I have heard so far on iTunes! I have about an hour and a half commute to work everyday and this podcast makes the time fly by. It is so refreshing to hear other people openly discuss the Libertarian philosophy without being cut off by a talkshow host with an agenda to push. I cannot tell you how awesome it is to know that there are smart educated people in the world who share the same viewpoints as I do. The ONLY reason I did not give 5 stars is because new shows are not frequent enough :( Now I realize we all have day jobs but honestly, with Libertarianism becoming more mainstream and people looking for a voice like their own, I think it would be wise to prioritize this show to ensure there is at least one new show a week... and if you would like a female libertarian from Chicago to offer a different viewpoint, give me a call!!!
Intelligent Political Conversation
April 24, 2013 by Ryan Ripley from United States
This podcast produces excellent political content that makes you think. The co-hosts are all well spoken and very knowledgable about the Libertarian movement. The emotions run high at times, but that is a big part of the fun. Highly recommended!
Extremely Well Done
April 24, 2013 by Yellowperchman from United States
This is by far the best political podcast I have ever listened to. I sincerely hope this group of guys catch on like wildfire and eventually get their own nationally syndicated radio/tv show. They are that good. We need less progressive and neocon talking heads and more sensible/pragmatic people like them. I do must say, I miss Gault!!!! :-D
Amazing!
April 23, 2013 by Rdnk1 from United States
Intelligent, funny, factual, entertaining, and informative! I love it!
Awesome!
March 19, 2013 by Smilingsamantha from United States
I love this podcast! It's funny yet informative. It has definitely been instrumental in my conversion away from rightwing conservatism. You will laugh at loud with the hosts as they mock and make fun of each other. Bring back Gault.
Great Podcast
March 12, 2013 by dbcva from United States
Like Lifesavers have peppermint, wintergreen, and traditional five flavors, this podcast represents all of the varied and tasty flavors of libertarianism.
Great Podcast
March 8, 2013 by mawest84 from United States
I've been searching for a Libertarian themed podcast for a while, and was mostly unsatisfied with what I'd listened to. That was until I found this one. The topics are always interesting and the conversations are smart. I've recommended the 'cast to most of my friends since I've started listening. Really appreciate what these guys are doing.
Scourge of the Earth

One of my go-to podcasts
March 8, 2013 by annilita1 from United States
I always look forward to getting a new episode. Nice range of libertarian beliefs, well argued and researched.
Great podcast, 1 minuscule problem.
February 20, 2013 by DataMatr1x from United States
This is a great podcast for libertarian ideas. My ONLY complaint is the annoying new intro. I appreciate the attempt but... Not everyone is Weird Al.
Better than anything ever, ever
February 9, 2013 by MyOpinionIsUndeniable from United States
Best political podcast on the internet. Best political commentary there is...makes mainstream media look like children. 1,000,000,000 stars!! Listen to thsi podcast!!!! Ahhhh!!!!

The guys are informative for people who may not be very familiar with politics and government. They're also funny, which makes it easy to listen to. If you're young you should try it out.
