We talk about the dead whore in the bathtub, how awful school really is, how parents don't spend time with their kids, how to talk home education, what types of people went to school, helicopter parenting, conditioning for misery, learning, grades, un-learning for learning, programming, college and matu...

Is libertarianism a political failure? Why enthusiastically yes! Here we talk about little corners of libertarianism, ask about Rawls' veil of ignorance, the joyful libertarian discovery process, Ron Paul, Gary Johnson and libertarian politicians, your relationship with commerce, becoming an anarchist, libertarian guilt and what you are supposed to do, romanticizing oppression, feeling the burn of news TV, how I'm free, how I'm n...

I explore the common attributes of American life that foreigners find weird, such as saying "how do you do", tipping, being fat or driving in cars. We spend a bit on whether Americans are unnatural or not, and discuss whether some crazy foreigners want to kill us.

Praxis CEO, public free thinker and BFF Isaac Morehouse joins me to expand on a Facebook post he wrote on "doublespeak" or "doublethink" where a policy idea is mistaken (or purposefully replaced) a more genuine objective or desire. Here we talk myths about school, the law, the military, welfare, and regulation. Enjoy!

I discuss the third component that would suggest a country is fascist which is militarism (combined with corporatist economics and nationalism). Do we need our leaders to dress up in general's uniforms to be militaristic, or is it our ethics and investments that indicate militarism? Discussed is the history of the military and US wars, a look at the numbers of people working in the military, the glorification of the soldier, budge...

In this episode, I discuss how being constantly 'busy' is probably a bad thing and that most people don't properly balance their time with their consumption and life changes. I try to make the case that being "acceptably busy" is a conformist notion that has spread to every aspect of people's lives. I steal a clip of Tim Ferriss. I also bizarrely get into the documentary "Lost Boys" about relocated Africans. As always, I take a ...
