Episode 242: Episode 242 - Raiders of the Lost Ark (1:34:25)

Actual Anarchy Podcast - AnCap Movie Reviews from a Rothbardian Perspective

We did “Jaws” last week and we stick with the Spielberg theme with a review of “Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark” and we will be joined by a professor of history, the great, Prof CJ of the Dangerous History Podcast.

In 1936, archaeologist and adventurer Indiana Jones is hired by the U.S. government to find the Ark of the Covenant before the Germans do so that they may use it as a weapon of war.

The legacy of Indiana Jones began 40 years ago with the release of this film and so it is a great time to discuss it.

We will return next week with our friend, Jared Wall of Breaking Liberty to talk about the Dave Chappelle film, “Half Baked”.

Robert and I analyze popular movies from a Rothbardian/Anarcho-Capitalist perspective. We use movies as a starting point for people who may not be familiar with this way of thinking.

Discussion of the plot and decisions that characters make in relation to morality and violations of the non-aggression principle are our bread and butter.

We also will highlight and discuss any themes or lessons from Austrian Economics that we can glean from the film.

The point is to show what anarchy actually is with instances that are presented in film.

We publish at least once per week; and occasionally will do specials surrounding holidays or events (elections/olympics) and have guests.
