Voluntucky is about Voluntaryism in Kentucky (obviously). But it digs much deeper than the philosophies heard on other podcasts. We seek to put boots on the ground – literally. YOUR boots – on Pulaski County, KY dirt to create the real world Voluntaryist society we all know is possible.

Creating a Voluntaryist world requires us to create friendships and bonds with other Voluntaryists. Yet it's easy to be so fed up with "people" that we can have little or no desire to put in the effort.

What factors determine whether your actions are offensive or defensive? Aggression is always seen as self-defense when your team does it. But is it really?
