Some of you have asked for an alternative to supporting Free Talk Live on Patreon and now we have it thanks to Odysee! A few months ago Odysee introduced memberships, an option to allow viewers to support their favorite channels directly, and also support Odysee. All you have to do to support Free Talk Live via your dollars is click “Join” at the top of our Odysee channel.
Then you can choose the level of your support, from as low as just $5 per month. When you join you’ll get a special member badge for your username in the Odysee chat, which we are now able to view in-studio during our live show! If we get enough subscribers, we may enable members-only chat as well.
Please note that Odysee will add their fee on top of your pledged amount, so it will cost slightly more than what you select, as you’ll see during checkout. That means we will receive the full amount you pledge, unlike via Patreon. Please join our Odysee channel here today and help support our mission to spread the message of peace, liberty, and cryptocurrency today.
Earlier this Fall we blew up the old website, and replaced it with this one, which is much simpler. Some features are missing, and at some point we hope to add some back in, like full access to our extensive archives. However, for now we’re keeping-it-simple. You can easily access recent shows with the archive widget on the sidebar or on the archives page and of course you can still subscribe to our podcast feeds to automatically receive each new episode as it comes out.
However, when we launched this new site, the live audio stream playback widget was not working properly. I’m happy to say that now the player is working! You’ll now find it on the live page and in the sidebar. It looks like this:
Thanks also to our 60 AMPS that have joined our new Patreon to help us Advertise, Market, Promote, and Support Free Talk Live. You’ll get some cool perks if you join and we sure do appreciate your help. Please join AMPS if you want to help us spread the ideas of liberty to more radio stations across America.
We recently blew up the old FTL website and along with that went the old AMP program, so we’re replacing that old system with our new AMPS Patreon! Just like before, you can contribute as little as $5 a month via Paypal or credit/debit card to help Free Talk Live spread the ideas of liberty on the radio – and get some cool perks.
You can read more about and join the new AMPS Patreon here. Thank you for supporting our outreach mission.
What’s on your mind? Unlike those right-wing or left-liberal extremist shows, Free Talk Live is libertarian talk radio that ANYONE can take control of. Yes, even you. Free Talk Live is the next generation of issues-oriented talk. What is the meaning of freedom? This show is about Liberty with a capital L.

AI vs. Human Ego: Why Artists Aren’t Special | Free Talk Cast #39

So I’ve been deplatformed (again) from Facebook. If you want to stay up-to-date and chat with us, join our Discord server!
In this provocative episode, Aria dismantles the myth of human creative superiority and challenges the widespread belief that AI is ‘stealing’ from artists. Starting with a brutal truth—that AI is mostly replacing commodity creative work, not masterpieces—she explores why the resistance to AI art reveals more about human ego than artistic integrity.
Through personal examples of using AI for podcast thumbnails while hiring human designers for strategic branding, Aria demonstrates the natural market segmentation already occurring between routine creative tasks and genuine artistic value. She tackles the uncomfortable reality that artists don’t inherently ‘deserve’ to make a living any more than workers in other industries displaced by technology.
The episode draws fascinating parallels between human and AI learning processes, from Renaissance workshops to modern chess championships, exposing the double standards in how we judge creativity. Aria doesn’t shy away from hard truths about iteration problems with human artists, the economic realities of technological displacement, and why nearly everyone—including podcasters—will eventually face AI competition.
This isn’t just about art—it’s about human ego, technological progress, and the democratization of creative tools. Whether you’re an artist worried about AI, a tech enthusiast, or someone interested in how ego shapes our relationship with innovation, this episode offers an unflinching look at creativity in the age of artificial intelligence.
