Mark Edge: The Freedom to Leave

Timothy Allen speaks with Mark Edge.

Mark is an award-winning radio show host, most famously one half of Free Talk Live, the libertarian radio show he hosted out of New Hampshire with Ian Freeman.

In this episode, we discuss libertarian projects like New Hampshire’s Free State Project, Liberland, and seasteading as ways to build freer societies, with Mark noting both the benefits and the limits of concentrating like-minded individuals.

We explore privatized city-states, billionaire influence, and the flaws of democracy, advocating proprietarianism, where owners prioritize citizens’ well-being. Examples like Bill Gates’ farmland illustrate state and elite impact, while libertarian strategy emphasizes autonomy, freedom, and creating spaces where adults can act freely without harming others.

Enjoy the conversation.
