That's what I figured, and I am likewise skeptical.

Friedman was pretty close to being a 100% free-market economist; he just went off the rails when it came to money and money markets. And then, his son is one of the foregoing writers on anarcho-capitalism, and his son devotes many of his books to his father.
Sowell, for the most part, is a free-market economist. Applied Economics has essentially the same thesis as Economics in One Lesson (a book that Ferg would never dare allow himself to read). Thomas Sowell is well-received by the Austrians.
I highly doubt Ferg has read either Friedman or Sowell, except for maybe an excerpt or article here and there.
