  3. This is one of the very rare times that the show contains a single conversation – one of the most memorable and surprising conversations in the history of the show – featuring a Freedomain Radio first. This has never happened during a call in show before – and I doubt it will ever happen again. Question: “What you think about the possibility of the supernatural? If proof of other 'beings' is real, does that open up the possibility of God or Gods? My boyfriend has done a lot of research about aliens and other stuff like that, and has some personal life experience with the supernatural. My boyfriend believes that the Christian God could be real but has a more flexible view than the bible since there are a lot of things it leaves out. His knowledge has given me a different point of view than the Lutheran Church I grew up in and made me question what I know about the world, but still makes me wonder about the existence of higher intelligence.” Your support is essential to Freedomain Radio, which is 100% funded by viewers like you.

  11. Question 1: [0:00] – “It is often difficult to describe something one is lacking, even when it is glaringly obvious that there is something everyone else is experiencing. I am intellectually aware of something referred to as, ‘a sense of accomplishment,’ but have only the vaguest imaginings of what it probably feels like. The closest I ever manage is the absence of feeling the stress of needing to get something done. I generally managed to brute force myself through the necessities of the day but tend to feel like my gas tank is empty when it comes to doing productive things I’d like to do that are not necessary for day-to-day living. I have many rational arguments for why I should do things in my spare time that are more challenging than others, but I have yet to find an argument that is convincing. What have you found to be most useful when you are negotiating with yourself? Question 2: [1:55:28] – “I've heard Stefan talk about not shying down from showing/using your intellect, not making yourself look smaller as the metaphorical tall guy since it's lying to yourself and not using your gift to a full potential. But from my experience nothing good ever came from showing my intellect to my peers or teachers, it always came down to them belittling me or in some cases extreme bullying, which leads to me trying to ‘fit’ in with the other kids, i.e. not getting the grades I could, not talking to about the things I'd like to, etc. Which lead to me not willing or able to go to school anymore because of extreme depression at a very young age. My question would be if intelligence is something that pushed our society out of the muck, why does it feel like a curse more than a gift?” Question 3: [2:34:46] – “While I am generally in favor of capitalism and the free market I believe that there are some big limitations that prevent pure capitalism from working in today's global market. The capitalism of a global economy gives rise to large corporations that too big and limit opportunities for the majority of people. Specific examples would include Google and Facebook, which started off as great companies but now that they are market leaders and essentially can't be replaced have turned to enforcing the leftist narrative. I believe there is a role for some government regulation and some government programs such as military, infrastructure, policing, and eventually some sort of universal basic income. Anything extremist view can be harmful, and while freedom is important, unlimited and unchecked freedom with no restrictions is harmful. The non-aggression principle is an ideal and is not realistic enough to promote ultimate freedom.” Question 4: [2:59:04] – “I've heard a few young ladies on your call-in show talking about delaying motherhood in order to set a career in motion first. Despite your best efforts to convince them otherwise, some still seem to unconvinced by your suggestions to have children younger and pursue a career once the kids are older. I have made many mistakes in my life including convincing myself that I didn't want a family and instead achieving a high-earning STEM career, only to find myself wholly unfulfilled. I was able to realize my error before my fertility window closed and now have an amazing husband and son, and I'd like to share my story in the hopes that some of the ladies out there might hear it differently from the mouth of a fellow lady who almost missed out on the most important title I could imagine - mom. I'm also hoping that Stefan would briefly discuss with me the idea of how to balance taking responsibility for one's actions and forgiving oneself (i.e. avoiding self-blame) specifically as it relates to choices made in the teenage years. I think this might help me in relation to dealing with my own choices and mistakes.” Your support is essential to Freedomain Radio, which is 100% funded by viewers like you.

  21. Question 1: [2:22] – “In order to prove UPB you set up imaginary scenarios where certain behaviors are moral, such as rape, murder, theft and so on. For example, if two people are in a room and theft is moral then both people need to be continually trying to steal from each other in order to act morally. Therefore, it’s impossible to be moral and also constantly trying to steal because the situation becomes completely unworkable as everyone is always stealing from everyone else. What I want to know is how does UPB prove a situation is immoral where, for example, it is moral to attempt to rape/steal/commit fraud but only on occasions? Surely in this situation both parties can always be acting morally so long as they are only trying to commit the act every now and then.” Question 2: [16:40] – “My early 20's started with a rough turn of events based on my poor decisions. Overcoming addiction, arrests, poor relationship choices, which resulted in a baby who is now 7. The father is in and out of prison to whom she is unaware of. I cleaned up 8 years ago (drug court) and married a wonderful man who I have been with for 6 years. We started with virtually nothing and are now successful in our skilled trades. My question is I recently accepted a new role within my company that requires about 75% travel. I would like to give my husband his own child but am not sure I want more children. My success and financial health and security is very important to me. Being in my 30's I know I don't have forever to decide. Will I regret and have a husband who has contempt for not sharing a child with him even though he has adopted my daughter as his own. How do I weigh my values of family over my career? Also, at what time is the right time to explain to our daughter her true biological beginning without instilling insecurities or deception?" Question 3: [2:01:47] – “I've been investigating into the nature of the current political dynamic of universities and various social institutions in the contemporary west. When you mentioned it on your show with Tom Woods, I gained interest in the thesis you wrote in college about the relationship between metaphysics and politics. From the reading, and research I've conducted, I've come to the conclusion that Friedrich Nietzsche has more of an influence on the implementation of progressive policies (economic, and political) than Karl Marx. Could the arbitrary and deconstructionist nature of Nietzschean philosophy have more of an impact on the revolutionary and materialist tendencies that Marxism employs? Or rather do they complement each other on a purely ideological basis?” Question 4: [2:43:52] – “I have come across a particular topic about how fines are given to different economic classes. I have had peers explain how fair it would be if a millionaire was speeding and a low-income person was speeding and they each got a ticket the millionaire should be fined more due to his money. Finland is an example of a country that implements this fine policy. My peers explain to me that this policy is to make crimes such as speeding and other illegal acts more punishing for the wealthy. I feel as if this still does not justify this policy to be in place. I feel that all laws should be enforced equally among all people and that punishing the wealthy for being wealthy doesn't seem right to me.” Question 5: [2:57:55] – “During a recent show you asked a caller ‘was there no one else out there’ regarding his choice to marry someone who had a child via rape. Why do you feel this way? As a woman that had that situation, I felt it was an over generalized statement that was unwarranted. Women in my situation should know they have other options as well. Do you think women can restore their sexual market value after being raped?” Your support is essential to Freedomain Radio, which is 100% funded by viewers like you.
