"Hi Stef, my mother-in-law seems to perfectly fit the description of "borderline personality disorder". My wife used to get upset at me for not playing along to appease her dysfunctional mother but after a few years of therapy came to realize that behavior is not normal. She drew boundaries and cut regular contact with her mother and our lives became much more peaceful. We now have an 11 week old baby, and her mom is trying to come back into our lives as if everything is normal. I would love to cut contact with her, but my wife wants to do her "due diligence" before she cuts her out. She let her mother meet our baby boy, but I've refused to let her hold him. We both know we need to have a direct, difficult discussion with her mother but my wife fills with anxiety at the thought of the confrontation. There is no point of contention in our marriage, we are in agreement and everything is great, except having her mom continually trying to meet up with us. Is this worth a call in? There is something holding my wife up from this, perhaps hearing it from someone other than me can help?"
"I have a two and a half year old toddler. He screams a lot, especially when big feelings are involved. Can we do something about it?"
"How do you recommend moving to the private sector. I am 26 with all professional experience being government IT contracts. Thanks!"
"Do you recommend writing cover letters when applying to jobs? I think that is supposed to add the personal touch but I never made them"

In this Wednesday Night Live on 3 December 2025, philosopher Stefan Molyneux delves into the Mouse Utopia Experiment, or Universe 25, conducted by John B. Calhoun, exploring its implications on societal behaviors and psychological breakdowns. We examine the setup and outcomes of this study, where unlimited resources led to self-destructive behaviors among a mouse population. The discussion highlights the relationship between environment and mental health, urging caution in making direct comparisons to human society. We address the criticisms of Calhoun's methodology, the ethical concerns of using animals in experiments, and the relevance of these findings to contemporary issues like urban overcrowding and social isolation. The conversation encourages listeners to reflect on the necessity of promoting human excellence and combating isolation within our communities to avoid the pitfalls illustrated by the experiment.
