Adam Smith, Economic Freedom, and Why History Keeps Repeating Itself Perspectives Matter 2026-07-22 | What can a 250-year-old book still teach us about today's economy? Host Dennis McCuistion talks with economist, investment advisor, and FreedomFest founder Mark Skousen about his book The Making of Modern Economics, which traces the rise of Adam Smith's "system of natural liberty" through its critics, from Marxists to central planners, to its eventual vindication after the fall of the Berlin Wall. They discuss the warning signs of history repeating itself, from the Smoot-Hawley tariffs and the Great Depression to today's rising tariffs, executive overreach, and ballooning national debt. The conversation also covers Skousen's predictions on gold, infrastructure vulnerabilities, and which career paths still offer real opportunity in a heavily regulated economy. Along the way, Skousen makes the case for why studying economic history, and its long list of failed doomsday predictions, matters now more than ever.If you want to catch up on any past McCuistion programs, you can watch them at your convenience by visiting perspectivesmatter.com/.
The Forgotten Inventors Who Shaped Modern Life Perspectives Matter 2026-07-22 | What do whole wheat bread, the folding beach chair, and Bank of America have in common? Host Dennis McCuistion welcomes Steve Forbes, chairman and editor-in-chief of Forbes Media, to discuss his video series Steve Forbes On Achievement and the everyday innovators behind some of America's most overlooked breakthroughs. Forbes shares the stories of figures like Margaret Rudkin, who turned a homemade loaf into Pepperidge Farm, Annie Malone, daughter of former slaves who built an international hair-care empire, and A.P. Giannini, who rescued a young Walt Disney and rebuilt San Francisco's economy after the 1906 earthquake. The conversation explores why entrepreneurship tends to flourish in freer, less regulated environments, and how America's culture of risk-taking and self-improvement has historically set it apart from Europe. Forbes makes the case that these stories, more than any economic lecture, are what inspire the next generation to build and create.If you want to catch up on any past McCuistion programs, you can watch them at your convenience by visiting perspectivesmatter.com/.
Stoicism versus Objectivism: Finding Your Anchor in an Uncertain World Perspectives Matter 2026-07-22 | What can ancient Stoicism and Ayn Rand's philosophy of Objectivism teach us about living a meaningful life? Host Dennis McCuistion is joined by Daniel T. Richards, executive director of the Prometheus Foundation, and Stephen Kent, creator of the Geeky Stoics YouTube channel, for a conversation that spans from Marcus Aurelius to Star Wars to Ayn Rand's escape from Soviet Russia. They explore where these philosophies align and where they sharply clash—on reason versus emotion, what we can actually control, and whether the individual or the collective comes first. Examples like Bernie Madoff and the debate over charity as virtue versus charity as choice show how these ideas play out in everyday life. This episode offers perspectives on resilience, purpose, and happiness for anyone looking to live more intentionally.If you want to catch up on any past McCuistion programs, you can watch them at your convenience by visiting perspectivesmatter.com/.
Why Every Generation Has to Relearn Economic Freedom Perspectives Matter 2026-07-22 | What does growing up under 1,000% inflation teach a nine-year-old about economics? Host Dennis McCuistion talks with Diogo Costa, president of the Foundation for Economic Education (FEE), who shares how childhood in Brazil's hyperinflation era and a chance encounter with the writings of Ludwig von Mises set him on a path through the Cato Institute, Columbia University, and, ultimately, FEE's leadership. They discuss why Milton Friedman believed no economic battle is ever permanently won, and why each new generation must relearn lessons about inflation, price controls, and government overspending from scratch. Costa walks through FEE's efforts to reach young people today, from AI-powered learning tools to student hackathons building apps grounded in sound economic principles. The conversation closes with a candid look at how Brazil and Argentina are each grappling, in very different ways, with the consequences of fiscal excess.If you want to catch up on any past McCuistion programs, you can watch them at your convenience by visiting perspectivesmatter.com/.
The Forgotten Father of Abolitionism: John Rankins Underground Railroad Perspectives Matter 2026-07-22 | Who was the man Harriet Beecher Stowe and William Lloyd Garrison both credited as a driving force behind the abolitionist movement? Host Dennis McCuistion is joined by author and researcher Caleb Franz to discuss Franz’s book The Conductor, a biography of John Rankin, a Presbyterian minister whose hilltop home in Ripley, Ohio became one of the most active stations on the Underground Railroad. Franz traces Rankin's journey from a slaveholding Tennessee community to a life of constant threats, mob violence, and bounty hunters across the Ohio River, where he helped guide more than 2,000 enslaved people toward freedom. The conversation covers Rankin's influence on figures like Harriet Beecher Stowe, his unwavering push for full emancipation during the Civil War, and why his story has remained largely unknown despite its impact. Franz's account offers a window into a chapter of American history that rarely makes it into the textbooks.If you want to catch up on any past McCuistion programs, you can watch them at your convenience by visiting perspectivesmatter.com/.
Free Minds, Free Markets: A Libertarian Take on Media, Guns, and Censorship Perspectives Matter 2026-07-22 | Can a journalist truly be unbiased, or is every perspective shaped by ideology? Brian Doherty, senior editor at Reason Magazine and author of Gun Control on Trial and Radicals for Capitalism, sits down with host Dennis McCuistion for a candid conversation about libertarianism and its place in today's polarized media landscape. They explore the Second Amendment's long road to the Supreme Court, the government's quiet pressure on tech platforms during the Twitter Files era, and why trust in mainstream media has collapsed in favor of influencers and social media. Doherty also reflects on Burning Man as an unlikely libertarian experiment, and weighs in on free speech battles playing out across universities and law firms today.

Conspiracy: Why Smart People Believe Irrational Things Perspectives Matter 2026-07-22 | Why do rational people end up convinced of conspiracy theories, and how can you tell the real ones from the paranoid ones? Host Dennis McCuistion sits down with Michael Shermer, founding publisher of Skeptic magazine and author of Conspiracy: Why the Rational Believe the Irrational, to unpack what separates legitimate conspiracies, like Watergate and the CIA's MK-Ultra program, from baseless ones built on proxy beliefs and proportionality bias. Shermer breaks down the chaotic, accident-prone reality behind real conspiracies, from the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand to 9/11 truther claims, and explains why grand coordinated cover-ups rarely hold up under scrutiny. The conversation turns to QAnon, the changing incentives in modern journalism, and why even experts benefit from admitting when they get something wrong. Shermer offers practical tools for separating evidence from instinct in an era when outrageous claims spread faster than ever.If you want to catch up on any past McCuistion programs, you can watch them at your convenience by visiting perspectivesmatter.com/.

Host Dennis McCuistion speaks with Dr. Robert Malone, a biochemist involved in early mRNA research and newly appointed member of the CDC's Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices, for a wide-ranging conversation on vaccine safety, informed consent, and the science behind mRNA technology. Malone walks through his views on vaccine effectiveness versus disease severity, the phenomenon of negative efficacy after multiple doses, and his skepticism toward the official explanation of how COVID-19 originated.

Perspectives Matter | Nonprofits at Risk Perspectives Matter 2025-08-03 | Host: Jim FalkGuests: Clarissa Clark, Government Relations Officer North Texas Texas FoodBank, andShirley Robinson, the Executive Director of the Texas Library AssociationAs federal budgets are being sharply reduced and agencies dismantled, the effects are rippling across the country—often in unexpected ways. In this program, we’re not here to debate whether the actions of the Department of Government Efficiency, or DOGE, are justified.Rather, our goal is to explore how organizations are being forced to rapidly adapt in a newlandscape—one where federal funding is quickly becoming a thing of the past.Joining us today are representatives from two very different sectors:libraries and food banks. Let’s turn to them now to learn how they’re navigating what many are calling the “new normal.”To hear how the North Texas Food Bank is responding we turn to Clarissa Clark, the Government Relations Officer at the North Texas Texas Food Bank, where she has been since2023. Shirley Robinson is the Executive Director of the Texas Library Association, the nation’s largest state library association where she leads statewide efforts to support and advocate forlibraries of all types. Severe cuts to government programs and federal grants are creating a ripple effect—impactingorganizations and the people they serve. Whether it’s someone facing food insecurity for the first time, or a neighbor seeking tax help at their local library, the consequences are real and widespread.#ClarissaClark#ShirleyRobinson#JimFalk#Nonprofits #FederalCuts #FoodBank #LibraryAdvocacy #perspectivesmatter #mccuistiontv 5014If you want to catch up on any past McCuistion programs, you can watch them at your convenience by visiting perspectivesmatter.com/.Please remember that Perspectives Matter... a McCuistion Program is a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organization that receives no KERA pledge dollars, PBS funds, or government grants.

Perspectives Matter | The Challenges Facing Nonprofits Today Perspectives Matter 2025-07-27 | Joining Host Jim Falk to discuss the challenges nonprofits are presently faced with, and possible solutions, is Calvert Collins-Bratton, the Chief Relationships Officer at Communities Foundation of Texas.While most would agree that the U.S. government has grown to be too big and too expensive, the impact of the recent cuts, led largely by the DOGE, Department of Government Efficiency, is creating adverse consequences for nonprofits that are being felt both globally and nationally.Yet, one can’t help but ask, could the NGO’s, social services, museums, and universities affected not been more proactive in anticipating the cuts and been better prepared to live without such dependence on the federal government?Here in Dallas, the Communities Foundation of Texas has a unique vantage point as the nexus, the link between our region's charitable institutions.While the results of a recent Harvard/Harris poll showed that three-quarters of Americans support the DOGE-led actions to reduce fraud and waste a growing number of people are expressing concern if not outright opposition to the impact these cuts are having on their libraries, parks, food banks, health care, and school programs.Foundations and especially individuals who have traditionally been the backbone of American philanthropy are being more cautious in their giving, which may lead to changes in how and who provides services that we have perhaps taken for granted.Join us Sunday to see how these cuts may affect you and your favorite nonprofits.#Nonprofits #CommunityImpact #SocialGood#PerspectivesMatter #CalvertCollinsBratton#jimfalk 5013If you want to catch up on any past McCuistion programs, you can watch them at your convenience by visiting perspectivesmatter.com/.Please remember that Perspectives Matter... a McCuistion Program is a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organization that receives no KERA pledge dollars, PBS funds, or government grants.
