Kibbe believes that honest conversations, driven by intellectual curiosity and mutual respect, can ignite a new revolution of free thinking and a willingness to question the official narrative. That means talking, and listening, to a wide variety of people outside the echo chamber of officially sanctioned experts. Kibbe on Liberty's guests include politicians, economists, musicians, comedians, writers, radio personalities, activists, journalists, and even magicians—with topics of conversation ranging from current affairs to obscure philosophy, from craft beer to the Grateful Dead. Cold one in hand, settle in for the next brain-stimulating hour of Kibbe on Liberty. As the president of Free the People, Kibbe has decades of experience in the libertarian political sphere. He is the author of three books, including Don’t Hurt People and Don’t Take Their Stuff, a #2 NY Times Best Seller. Kibbe is a fanatical DeadHead, drinker of great whisky, and collector of obscure books on Austrian economics.","last_synced_at":"2026-06-11T06:20:07.000361+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/kibbe-on-liberty-687266"},"episode":{"title":"Ep 373 | Government Corruption Runs Even Deeper Than We Thought | Guest: Mike Benz","slug":"ep-373-government-corruption-runs-even-deeper-than-we-thought-guest-mike-benz","published_at":"2026-02-18T11:00:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/kibbe-on-liberty-687266/ep-373-government-corruption-runs-even-deeper-than-we-thought-guest-mike-benz","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/kibbe-on-liberty-687266","url":"https://www.podtrac.com/pts/redirect.mp3/pdst.fm/e/pfx.vpixl.com/4V6da/arttrk.com/p/BLZM1/verifi.podscribe.com/rss/p/mgln.ai/e/285/pscrb.fm/rss/p/chrt.fm/track/1655CF/cohst.app/pdcst/5I2S5F/traffic.megaphone.fm/BMDC8980551793.mp3","audio_url":"https://www.podtrac.com/pts/redirect.mp3/pdst.fm/e/pfx.vpixl.com/4V6da/arttrk.com/p/BLZM1/verifi.podscribe.com/rss/p/mgln.ai/e/285/pscrb.fm/rss/p/chrt.fm/track/1655CF/cohst.app/pdcst/5I2S5F/traffic.megaphone.fm/BMDC8980551793.mp3","summary":"The release of millions of formerly classified pages related to Jeffrey Epstein is giving Americans an inside look into a web of collusion and deception that spans multiple countries, agencies, and administrations. Matt Kibbe is joined by Mike Benz, executive director of the Foundation for Freedom Online, to take a deep dive into the links between the military, wealthy individuals like Bill Gates, and the public health apparatus that gave us the COVID-19 pandemic. The deeper you dig, the worse it gets. But there’s a bright spot in all this: The transparency we’re now getting, thanks to the efforts of Rep. Thomas Massie (R-Ky.), is allowing the American people to finally see what’s been going on behind the curtain, and that knowledge is the first step toward reform.","meta_description":"The release of millions of formerly classified pages related to Jeffrey Epstein is giving Americans an inside look into a web of collusion and deception t…","key_points":[],"chapters":[],"topics":[],"duration_seconds":4383,"processing_state":"not_requested","actions":[{"name":"request_transcript","method":"POST","url":"https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/kibbe-on-liberty-687266/episodes/ep-373-government-corruption-runs-even-deeper-than-we-thought-guest-mike-benz/transcription-requests","description":"Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode."},{"name":"read_markdown","method":"GET","url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/kibbe-on-liberty-687266/ep-373-government-corruption-runs-even-deeper-than-we-thought-guest-mike-benz.md","description":"Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource."}]}}
