On this episode of the Lions ofLiberty podcast, host Marc Clair welcomes in a crew of liquored-up libertarians to break down the very first Presidential Debate of 2016 featuring Donald Trump vs. Hillary Clinton, with Gary Johnson nowhere in sight.

After revealing their beverages of choice and going on a tangent about creepy clowns, the "Libertarians in Living Rooms Drinking Liquor" dive into the debate. In the show, you'll hear them discuss:
- Whether Gary Johnson was missed, and whether or not they believe him not being in the debate was a net positive or negative.
- Donald Trump's generally toned down demeanor, and his swift move to the center for the general election.
- Hillary Clinton's "Joker" face - Is she the Jack Nicholson or Heath Ledger Joker? And is she scarier than a creepy clown?
- Predictions for future debates and the general election.
- Oh, so so soooo much more!
