The Moral Relativism of NIETZSCHE!

In this episode, I explore key questions from our community, starting with reflections on my book "UPB" and its evolution in "Essential Philosophy." I share my thoughts on amusement parks, advocating for meaningful connections over crowded experiences, and discuss the complexities of communication in parenting.

Delving into Nietzsche, I analyze his views on moral relativity and societal trends. We also examine modern media's distortion of relationship dynamics and the competitive nature of friendships. I conclude with insights on balancing individual freedom and collective responsibility, urging listeners to engage with these complex themes for a deeper understanding of relationships and society.

Don't Get Played by WOMEN!

Sunday Morning Live 4 May 2025

In today's livestream, I examine the theme of personal drama and the self-inflicted challenges we create. I define drama as self-generated, negatively impactful, and typically unsolvable, encouraging listeners to evaluate their own experiences. We discuss how the human brain craves challenge, often leading to unnecessary conflict when real issues are absent. I highlight the importance of distinguishing sympathy based on the nature of others' struggles and provide insights into managing conflicts and communicating difficult topics with children. The discussion emphasizes personal growth and the transformative power of confronting life's challenges directly.

I welcomed Bryan Adams back into my playlist this week thanks to the Friday episode. I’ve only recently made peace with my inner parents, and the podcast triggered a memory from my teens - me singing Everything I Do, I Do It for You while it played on TV. My mother, initially quiet and lost in thought, eventually sighed and said something like, “I used to enjoy this song, but it was your father and I’s wedding song and now, whenever I hear it, I just think...‘lies.’” She didn’t have to ask me to stop listening. Inner Mother knew best. Bryan Adams, whose music I genuinely enjoyed, just quietly disappeared from my playlists.

As an adult, if that song came on the car radio, I’d change the station even if she wasn't physically with me.

So of course, I went to Spotify and listened to it again after all these years and my inner mother was completely fine. It’s a small thing, but it brought a winning smile to my face and wanted to share that. Next step: karaoke!!

In the beginning was the Word

Just hearing Stef's voice is enough to realign
