I was a part of the Objectivist Academic Center (OAC) while in college a while ago. Since then I had felt somewhat cut off from ARI, but then I found these new and improved podcasts. It’s like being right back in the classroom hearing the familiar and current intellectual voices of Onkar, Elan, Aaron, Ben, Keith, Yaron, Tara, Greg, and so many more. Even if you are like me and have read everything you could get your hands on that was written by Ayn Rand, continuously hearing about how current events are interpreted and understanding what these intellectuals are focusing on now is extremely important to better yourself as an Objectivist thinker. I found myself already knowing the basic “answer” to a question in a podcast, but then I learned some more subtle ways of approaching the problem or a different way of executing the solution through an Objectivist lens. I can tell that a lot of effort goes into each podcast and I just want to express my gratitude. I always come away from each episode inspired. When I first heard Tal discuss the plan of creating Ayn Rand University, I got so excited that I stayed uncomfortably jittery for the rest of the day. I truly hope that someday students can learn what to do and believe in as opposed to what not to do and believe in as myself and so many others have gone through in our schooling. I want a moral education for myself and anyone else that desires a path forward to truly live a happier life on earth. Please keep these podcasts up ARI and I look forward to enjoying 2022 with you as one of your dedicated listeners. -Kaitlyn

Greg Salmieri and Aaron Smith are decent. Some of the others are not.

This show brings up lots of topics… Some topical to do the moment some universal and forever Evergreen I really enjoy it. The Ayn Rand Institute is a place to get the authentic applications of AR’s ideas to today!

Always interesting new talks on different spheres and applications of Objectivism!

Topical and high quality.

After attending AynRandCon--I heard about this great Podcast and I'm certainly excited for the updates!

No matter what your particular familiarity with the philosophy of Objectivism and the works of Ayn Rand—provided you are passionate about ideas—this podcast is of extreme value. Both intellectually stimulating and emotionally inspiring, ARI Live provides listeners of all ages with the fuel necessary to continue the battle for reason, individualism, and capitalism.

Love this podcast! Really engages you. If you're a thinker and someone who likes being challenged, then this is a podcast for you.

This is the podcast I've been waiting for. The newest content from the leading Objectivist thinkers as well as old classics--all of it is otherwise hard to find in audio. This is the podcast to use to keep up with the great work that the Ayn Rand Institute does. Thanks ARI for launching this!

ARI’s speakers are excellent and never boring, and I always learn something new from these podcasts that clarifies my thinking on an important topic.

Love the live events of ARI!

Fantastic podcast, a must for those who care about ideas. Great work ARI!

Ayn Rand Institute Live is my ride or die, my co-pilot, my favorite podcast for my morning and evening commute home. Insightful, entertaining and objectively amazing. Check it out! You won't want to pull into work or home until you are finished with the episode(s).

Really great podcast. Each one I listened to got me thinking, keep them coming!
