Historical Controversies by Mises Institute

In "Historical Controversies", Mises Institute scholar Chris Calton debunks the history you may have learned in government schools. Armed with facts, theory, and a Rothbardian appreciation for historical narrative, Calton enlightens and entertains in a podcast that has something to offer all audiences.

In the first season, Calton focuses on the history of the war on drugs, busting the myths of state propaganda and exposing the role the US government has played in manufacturing the greatest evils from American's desire to get high.
