LibertyForAll Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 "Freedom Radio" rolls off the tongue easier, so I figure there is some greater meaning in Freedomain Radio. Free Domain. Does anyone know how Stefan came up with the name? Also, where did the idea ofr the logo come about? I know these aren't philosophical questions really, but I've always been curious.

MysterionMuffles Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 not really, the space between Freedom Radio has a weird pause to it that Freedomain Radio doesn't have. I think because a word ending with M closes your mouth, and to transition to an R isn't as smooth as coming off an N where your mouth is open. BUT you do raise a good question why is it called Freedomain Radio, I'd like to know as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Libertus Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 I always thought it was freedom-main radio, although I wonder what happened to that extra 'm'. Because it's about freedom, not free stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
st434u Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 I always thought it had something to do with the original internet domain for it being free to register. That, or a play on freedom ain't radio. Also, there was probably another show already called freedom radio. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Serene Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 I think it has to do with personal freedom, the anarchy of self. Domain is defined by google as "a specified sphere of activity or knowledge," which in terms of achieving personal freedom basically means "know thy self". 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tservitive Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 I think it has to do with the fact that one of Stef's goals has been to prove that patents are unnecessary for a free society, considering how all of the podcasts and books are free to consume and have no advertisers supporting them. I also agree with Mark's idea as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wuzzums Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 As I remember Stefan picked name from a generator or the like that he liked the sound of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EuanM Posted December 20, 2015 Share Posted December 20, 2015 Well FDR is a free domain, there is freedom here and the show is about freedom. The words Freedom and domain end and begin in dom respectively, so that syllable links the two words. It's less of a mouthful that 'Freedom Domain Radio'. I always thought it was quite clever.

BD91 Posted December 21, 2015 Share Posted December 21, 2015 It's "radio" in the "domain" of "free/freedom". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
