Lord Daniel Hannan is one of the most eloquent defenders of classical liberalism in the modern era. A former member of the European Parliament and a key voice behind Brexit, Hannan has spent decades championing individual rights, free markets, and limited government on the global stage. In our conversation, he reflects on the enduring brilliance of the American Founding, the dangers of centralized power, and how capitalism—when properly understood—is not just efficient but ethical. He and Mike discuss the current ominous trends of protectionism and nationalism and why they need to be fought. Hannan’s historical insight and philosophical clarity make this episode especially relevant in a time when freedom faces growing threats from both Left and Right.
