Episode 166: The Right Side of the Desk: David is joined for this third installment of Mentor Month by Lowell Miller, the founder and former head of Miller/Howard Investments, who taught David the philosophy of dividend-growth investing he has held dear for a couple of decades now.

David went through 20+ sermons and lectures from his dad from the 1970s and '80s to assemble a wonderful back and forth on work, and the power of Greg Bahnsen’s mentorship couldn’t be more clear! by Capital Record

Episode 171: Climate and Energy: David is joined by Dr. David Legates and Dr. Cal Beisner for a discussion of their new book, "Climate and Energy," and a discussion of the very subjects of climate and energy. What will the impact be on the poor if environmental extremists get their way? Why has the scientific community become such a strong advocate of censorship versus open debate on this issue? What do we think about coal, natural gas, and nuclear when thinking about energy policy? This is a comprehensive, balanced, well-reasoned discussion on one of the most important topics in contemporary society. by Capital Record

Episode 172: Fifty Years of Capital Markets: David holds the microphone himself today, taking advantage of his 50th birthday to look at what 50 years of progress in capital markets in our country has meant to the cause of human flourishing. In a time where many use class warfare or dumbed-down sentimentality to demonize financial markets, David lets history render its empirical verdict as to how capital markets have enhanced human flourishing, and does so with a nod to trade-offs and a full cost-benefits analysis. The results speak for themselves: Fifty more years of growing, robust, free, innovative capital markets, please. by Capital Record

Episode 174: The Kind of People We Are: David is joined by Dr. Hunter Baker for a real walk through the kind of society we want to be and the things that are most likely to facilitate such a society. Their discussion delves deeply into what the state can and cannot do in the formation of character, and how markets reflect the character of the people. Their prescriptions for a free and virtuous people call for more freedom and more virtue, and the way we get there is the subject of this talk. A not-to-be-missed conversation. by Capital Record
