How to Control Your Happiness! CALL IN LIVESTREAM
In this episode, I explore the complexities of human behavior related to health, focusing on obesity and personal choices. Drawing from a recent conversation, I contrast the commitment of fitness enthusiasts with societal challenges posed by unhealthy lifestyles. I discuss the emotional toll of witnessing poor choices, the need for setting boundaries to protect our well-being, and the importance of guiding children toward healthier decisions. Ultimately, I reflect on maintaining joy amid external chaos and emphasize the collective impact of individual choices on society's health.

TWO AND TWO MAKE FOUR - THE DEBATE!
A debate following up from podcast 6046, "DOES TWO AND TWO MAKE FOUR? Twitter/X Space": https://fdrpodcasts.com/6046/does-two-and-two-make-four-twitterx-space
In this episode, I explore the philosophical complexities of truth and context in mathematics, sparked by the statement "two and two make four." We discuss how context influences interpretations across numerical systems and the importance of clarity in communication. The conversation delves into the psychological aspects of certainty and the societal implications of uncertainty in moral judgments. I argue that doubts about logical truths can weaken moral reasoning. Ultimately, we emphasize the necessity of a rational foundation of knowledge to tackle philosophical inquiries and promote moral integrity.

Healing the Is/Ought Dichotomy
22 July 2025
This lecture explores the is-ought dichotomy, analyzing David Hume's assertion that moral imperatives cannot be directly derived from factual statements. The speaker critiques the selective use of this principle in secular morality and legal contexts, arguing that moral judgments often reflect subjective views rather than objective truths. The discussion emphasizes that engagements in debate carry intrinsic ethical standards, suggesting that while strict derivation may be problematic, a shared understanding of moral imperatives can emerge within secular discourse, enriching the conversation around ethics.

TWITTER/X SPACE WITH STEFAN MOLYNEUX @ 11:00AM EDT TODAY - STARTING IN 30 MINUTES!
The Midwits of X! Come talk philosophy my friends!
@freedomain On the topic of 2+2=4, in math there are such things as complex numbers. To put it simply, it extends the number line from a 1 dimensional line to a 2 dimensional plane. The "i" component is the Y axis, while the "real" component is the X axis. The number 4 is written as "4+i×0", or just "4". If you move up 2 steps on the Y axis you get the complex number "4+i×2".
While this is a purely mathematical concept and may appear to have nothing to do with philosophy or real life, complex numbers have practical utility in various situations such as in fluid dynamics, AC circuit analysis, signal processing etc. So they do seem to point to real world phenomena and behavior of matter and energy.
Now imagine a 1 dimensional being who only deals with "real" numbers and is blissfully unaware of "i" AKA the Y axis. "2+2=(4+i×2)", which is false, would appear to him as "2+2=4". However to his knowledge and point of view these equations are equal and interchangeable. It's like an ant who can move ...
