Connor Boyack: Tuttle Twins, Healthy Brainwashing & True Conspiracies | The Show

Connor Boyack, best known as the creator of the "Tuttle Twins" books and streaming series, has mastered the art of blending libertarian principles with engaging storytelling to reach children effectively, while also teaching their parents a lesson or two. His most recent addition to the series, "The Tuttle Twins Guide To True Conspiracies," delves into 20 historical events initially considered to be unhinged conspiracy theories but later proven factual. Connor is also the President of the Libertas Institute, where he actively pursues real-world policy reform across party lines to promote limited government and individual rights. His multifaceted approach demonstrates a deep-seated belief in the transformative power of accessible education and purposeful action in shaping a freer, more informed society.
