Brief Summary for The Limits of Free Will:
In this episode, we discuss the concept of free will and its connection to moral responsibility. We explore how philosophy and technological advancements shape our choices and opportunities. The impact of philosophy on parenting and the evolution of moral standards are also explored. We reflect on the responsibility associated with spreading ideas and the ability to do good. The episode concludes with a message of taking full responsibility for our actions.
Brief Summary for Finding Meaning in Business - Call in:
In this episode, we discuss the challenges of communication within a fintech startup. We address power dynamics, lack of collaboration between teams, and the need for clearer motives. We emphasize the importance of fair compensation and finding individuals who align with the company's mission for long-term success.
Brief Summary for The Philosophy of AI:
In this episode, we challenge the belief that the essence of humanity lies solely in the abstract brain. We discuss the overlooked importance of the body in human intelligence and critique AI's limitations in replicating creativity and reasoning. We explore the programming and prioritization challenges of AI, and highlight the significance of dreams, independent thinking, and connecting with oneself in embracing our humanity.
Brief Summary for No One Owes You Mental Health - Livestream:
In this part of the conversation, I'm trapped in a toxic relationship, dealing with manipulation and lies from someone I can only describe as a pathological liar. It's taken a toll on me and I feel powerless to escape. Grounding desires and opinions in reality is crucial to avoid manipulation. I'm grateful for callers who bravely share personal stories, bringing healing and awareness. Thank you for your support. Stay tuned for thought-provoking discussions and exciting interviews. Take care and keep seeking the truth.
Brief Summary for Understanding Your Emotions:
In this part of the conversation, we explore the concept of framing and its ability to turn negatives into positives. Using personal examples, we discuss the importance of focusing on maintaining a healthy lifestyle rather than dwelling on the negative. We emphasize that free will is based on thoughts and emotions, not just sensations, and how reframing can lead to genuine happiness and fulfillment. We invite listeners to share their thoughts and support the show by donating, encouraging them to embrace the power of framing for a happier life.

I Had Kids with the Wrong Woman! Listener Questions
In this episode, I tackle audience questions, starting with George St. Peterson's role in the Russia-Ukraine war and the importance of diverse opinions. I discuss the potential resurgence of Christianity in the West, emphasizing the need to apply rationality to moral discussions.
I explore the influence of childhood experiences on ethics and offer insights on co-parenting with an irresponsible partner, stressing the social context of relationship choices.

NEW PREVIEW FOR SUPPORTERS - HELP STEF I HAVE NO FRIENDS! FREEDOMAIN CALL IN SHOW
Subscribers get early previews for shows!
"Hi Stef! My name is [x] and I've been listening to your show for a couple years now, my husband introduced it to me shortly after we got married. I've really enjoyed learning about philosophy and self-knowledge and have been applying it to my marriage and other relationship queries. I was hoping to talk to you about some struggles I've had maintaining relationships (friendships) throughout my life. I've never had a local friendship last more than a few years. I'm about to continue my self-knowledge work by going to a Christian group therapy (Freedom session) and I was told I would need a sponsor (a friend or relation) to closely connect with for these group sessions. It occurred to me that I don't have any close friends and no one I could ask (besides my husband). To me that is alarming. I feel as though I should have at least one long term close friendship.
