Have you ever made an explicit list of conversations to have with a future spouse?
Hi Stef. I have a question. Philosophy has been a huge part of my life for a good few years now and has helped me.figure.out so much. However I find myself trying to push it onto my wife which is terrible of me. I don't want to be like that but find that my childhood traumas get triggered and suddenly I'm being pushy. I have asked her to read RTR and other books you have but she does struggle to engage probably because I am too pushy. How do I stop this pattern of behaviour?
Hey Stef, I don't want my future family to suffer under a totalitarian regime. I'm from central Europe and my current plan is to move out of the west, particularly into a south-american country with a right leaning government (like Uruguay), and to start my family there. I will either have to meet my future wife in Europe, and convince her to move to south america with me (which will probably be difficult), or just marry a woman from Latin america. Do you think this is a good idea?
Speaking of personalities, what do you think of MBTI - Myers Briggs personality type index? The gist of it is that everyone has a combination of cognitive functions that guide them toward making certain decisions in life. Any truth to this?
I grew up obese… and was nicknamed accordingly by my peers.
In the last few years, I have got in shape and lost about 80lbs of fat. From 255 to 180lbs at 6’ tall.
NONE of my peers recognize me now.
I have also created a six figure self employed business. (Blue Collar)
Now that I’m actually attractive to women,
I want to be wanted for me!
~Not a house,money, or muscles.
It’s kind of depressing that I became attractive , only after going through hell….
Hi Stef! My dad did very well in business and convinced me to sell most of my crypto when it had eclipsed 1k/btc. He made a joke years later that he had sold all his real estate to purchase Bitcoin when the price of btc was nearly 50k, implying it would be a speculative investment. He hasn’t acknowledged that he gave me the poor investment advice, even after it had 50x its price, but I haven’t called him out about it. Is that why I have regret to this day about selling or is it simply the price?
What's a good to differentiate between the value for value model and transactional relationships ?

The Truth About Sports!
In this Wednesday Night Live on 14 January 2026, Stefan Molyneux examines the way watching sports has become a widespread distraction in society, pulling people away from more meaningful pursuits. He points out the health problems that can come from too much time spent on sports viewing, along with the intense demands placed on kids in competitive athletics. Molyneux pushes back against common assumptions by stressing the value of looking at personal stories, and he urges people to focus on their own development rather than just sitting back and watching others. The discussion covers how sports influence culture in various ways.

Religion Solves Morality?
Stefan Molyneux takes on the notion that true ethics must come straight from God's orders, pointing out how morals drawn from holy books end up being pretty subjective, with people interpreting them in all sorts of ways. He responds to someone's worry about what happens without divine rules by noting that, unlike hard science, religious morals don't hold up the same across the board. Drawing from Christianity, Islam, and Judaism, he shows how followers disagree on basics like forgiveness or following divine laws. Molyneux digs into the past tensions between these religions and the mixed messages in their ethical advice, which makes him doubt whether divine say-so really settles right and wrong. He pushes people to think about their own biases in judging morals and cautions against leaning on religious teachings to back up decisions, suggesting instead a closer look at one's own sense of ethics.
