LOLA Argentina Podcast
LOLA Buenos Aires, Argentina launched a Podcast this month called LOLA tente.
In Argentina, it is common for people to have an incorrect or rather prejudiced concept about libertarianism. LOLA Argentina designed this podcast in part to tackle this automatic rejection of libertarian ideas as a way to make it more interesting and easier to hear a talk about various liberty ideas.
The purpose of the podcast is not only to communicate values of libertarian ideology but show them in practice. For each episode, the podcast invites professionals in their field to chat about popular topics of interest such as individual rights, freedom of speech, and women’s rights
The first episode talks about lawtech and the importance of free speech with Gabriela Commatteo.
Look out for the podcast launching on Spotify this weekend!
