About The Guest: Lewis Liberman and wife Julie Wilder are professional graphic artists, writers, and award winning illustrators. Their libertarian and ancap writings, cartoons and graphics have been featured just about everywhere - from Lew Rockwell, Actual Anarchy and Adam Kokesh to the Tenth Amendment Center, Historian Brion McClanahan and Austin Petersen. When they're not working as educators, or poking a little fun at the lunacy of leftists, statists and neo-cons, they enjoy reading, watching movies, playing games and spending time with family.

Johnny spent his early days earning his stripes as a helicopter pilot in the U.S. Army. Back stateside, Johnny immersed himself in the classic works of Murray Rothbard, Henry Hazlitt, and Ludwig von Mises. From there the AnCap known as “Johnny Rocket” was born. Speaking truth to power from your cell phone tower, Johnny digests the philosophy of liberty and brings them to the man on the street on a weekly basis. Johnny Rocket was also the front-man of the rockabilly group “Hot Roddin’ Romeos” and puts pencil to paper with the critically acclaimed comic series “The Liberty Force.” New York Times best-selling author and podcast host Tom Woods calls Johnny Rocket “one of the most entertaining figures in the liberty movement.”
