About this episode

Mark Edge interviews Jim Babka about the Parody Project and the future of the Libertarian Party at the 2026 Libertarian National Convention.

Mark Edge was on the ground at the 2026 Libertarian National Convention and sat down with some familiar faces. Jim Babka, the most frequent guest in Free Talk Live history, stops by to talk about the Parody Project, a new initiative bringing back Perry Willis, the man behind the legendary Project Archimedes growth strategy from the Harry Brown era. Jim and Perry Willis co-authored a plan they believe could lead to a libertarian America within ten years, and the numbers may surprise you. Mark also weighs in on why libertarians are a bigger force than winner-take-all elections let on, and why membership in the Libertarian Party costs you nothing but could mean everything.
