About This Project
To the politically homeless, the Chris Spangle Show provides entertaining and thoughtful conversations from a libertarian perspective on current events to help the audience feel more informed when discussing issues with their friends. We center our solutions through civil society (think nonprofits, religious groups, churches, or strong families) instead of government or business as a compassionate alternative. We cover news, culture, charity, history, libertarianism, Christianity and faith, public policy, communication, and more. Our host is Chris Spangle, a 20-year veteran of politics and media.
Written by Chris Spangle, host of the Chris Spangle Show, History of Modern Politics, and Liberty Explained, podcasts on the We Are Libertarians Podcast Network. He is also the co-host of the Patdown podcast, a comedy podcast with comedians Ms. Pat and Deon Curry. Chris Spangle has been podcasting since 2007, and now teaches podcasting at PodcastingAndPlatforms.com. He also hosts the public affairs radio show “We Thought You Might Like To Know...” on Indiana radio stations which focuses on nonprofits.

My Longer Bio
Chris Spangle was raised in Plainfield, Indiana. He attended IUPUI where he was the College Republicans President during the 2004 elections. While working on Andy Horning’s Congressional campaign in 2004, Horning inspired Spangle to research the libertarian philosophy. Spangle went on to work at Newstalk 1430 AM, WXNT for five years as a producer and reporter. During his last year there, he produced “Abdul in the Morning,” the premier political talk show in Indianapolis. It was during this time that he witnessed first-hand how broken the two-party system is, although he had been a life-long Republican, he decided to work to grow the Libertarian Party of Indiana and to affect social and political change in a libertarian direction.
