Lee Edwards interviews Leonard Liggio about the ISI. First they talk about its founder, Frank Chodorov as well as the conservative movement in the 1950s. People they talk about in the process are William F. Buckley, Jr., Robert Taft, and General MacArthur. Following Chodorov, the men then discuss Leonard Read, and E. Victor Milione.
In the second half, the men discuss the ISI and its successes. Liggio believes there are three good things the ISI has been responsible for: champing the Austrian school of economics, defending Western civilization against its internal enemies, and emphasis on the classics and Christian foundation. Edwards then asks what stimulates students' minds. This is followed by both lamenting the state of education, that students do not know how undereducated they are.
Third, they discuss Liggio's career in academia and miscellaneous aspects about the ISI.
