Sunday Morning Live 15 June 2025
Happy Fathers' Day!
In this episode, we tackle the complexities of generosity and entitlement, sparked by insights from a father discussing insomnia on a call-in show about fatherhood. I share personal anecdotes highlighting how kindness can be undervalued and explore societal expectations of gratitude. We discuss the implications of entitlement versus appreciation in relationships while urging listeners to take personal accountability for their choices. Through humor and reflection, we advocate for a culture of reciprocity, emphasizing the importance of mutual respect in fostering healthy connections.

Philosophy vs Sex Workers Part 2! Listener Debate
In this episode, I follow up on "Philosophy vs OnlyFans! Listener Debate" (https://fdrpodcasts.com/5984/philosophy-vs-sex-workers-listener-debate) with some more thoughts. I examine pride and genetic predisposition, addressing whether one should take pride in achievements influenced by genetics. While recognizing the genetic basis of traits like IQ, I stress the significance of personal agency and moral choices, illustrated through a scenario of decision-making in danger. I discuss the variability of human traits and the ethical implications of our choices, arguing against genetic determinism.
I also confront the philosophical issues around death and the modern healthcare system's impact on quality of life. Advocating for thoughtful discourse, I highlight the importance of recognizing the societal consequences of life extension. Ultimately, I call for moral accountability and personal agency in navigating life's challenges.

NEW PREVIEW FOR SUPPORTERS - In Which I Am SHOCKED! CALL IN SHOW
Subscribers get early previews for shows!
Topic: Insomnia and parental neglect
"I have two problems to talk about, although maybe they're one.
"I've suffered from insomnia for a long time now and medical interventions are not helping. I heard Stefan talk about his own a few times, and thought he might be able to help.
"Also, although I'm in my mid-40s, I only recently came to understand how badly, in some respects, my parents neglected me as a child, and I'm trying to figure out how to come to terms with that, and especially how to do better with my own children, whom I fear, lacking a better example, I'm doing the same with.
"To be more specific, growing up, my parents didn't really give me any advice or instruction about things like making friends, girls, building a career, almost anything. And I now I DON'T KNOW WHAT THAT ADVICE IS SUPPOSED TO BE for my own sons.
"Thanks for your work, Mr. Molyneux, whether or not I get to talk with you again."

My dad was A Male Candian Survivor of Child Abuse. He funded a help line for men in my youth that his best friend managed. The out cry and pain from the men that had the courage to call was so great that the my dad's best friend who answered the line committed suicide. This song is not for the faint of heart..
