024 - Matt & Terry Kibbe: Liberty & The New Media Landscape

Timothy Allen talks with Matt & Terry Kibbe. Matt and Terry Kibbe are the founders of ‘Free the People' which is an educational foundation charged with the mission of tuning in the next generation to the core values of personal liberty and peaceful cooperation. I met them both in Lisbon where they were speaking at LibertyCon and were it not for both of our incredibly strict schedules over that weekend I would have happily spoken to them for much longer since they have such a wealth of experience in the worlds of both legacy and new media. In our conversation we mainly discuss the current media landscape and what might be the best tools and strategies for communicating our message to the hearts and minds of people in today’s highly volatile world.   The marketplace of ideas has never been more universally accessible than it is at this time in history and Terry and Matt are most certainly amongst those at the sharp end of the wedge when it comes to communicating ideas of Liberty and freedom. Enjoy the conversation.
