God, Philosophy and Morality!
Stefan Molyneux looks at the difficulties in getting kids to understand morality, pointing out how dense philosophical ideas and religious lessons often fall short. He takes aim at old-school punishments that don't really build a true sense of right and wrong, and instead pushes for a straightforward approach that children can pick up on naturally. He stresses the need to focus on empathy, wrapping up with a call to create straightforward ways to teach morals that let kids tap into their own sense of agency.

Maduro Has Been Captured!
In this Sunday Morning Live on 4 January 2026, Stefan Molyneux examines the capture of Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro by U.S. Special Forces, an operation that prompts questions about sovereignty and international law. He discusses the divided reactions to the military action and draws parallels with earlier U.S. interventions.
With Venezuela as an example, he critiques the shortcomings of socialism against the outcomes of free-market systems and considers the effects on U.S. domestic politics, especially around the 2020 elections. He also touches on how culture shapes children's food preferences and looks at the difficulties for people who challenge common opinions. Along the way, he stresses the value of thoughtful discussion and backing those who speak out in public debates.

NO VIOLENCE AT HOME! Twitter/X Space
Stefan Molyneux kicked off the new year on his Freedomain Podcast by thinking back on life and what Scott Adams has left behind, especially now that Adams is dealing with a terminal illness. He recounted some stories from his own experiences with Adams, touching on the man's sharp mind and the costs he paid for standing by his views. Molyneux urged people to take a hard look at their own connections and to tackle whatever comes their way. Callers chimed in with their own memories of Adams, and throughout, he stressed the value of being straightforward, showing guts, and making sure to voice appreciation and care while you can.
