Summary
In this episode, I explore themes of parenting, politics, relationships, morality, and personal integrity. I respond to a listener's question about children's literature, particularly Grimm's Fairy Tales, discussing their depth in familial dynamics. I share my reluctance to engage in contemporary political discourse, critiquing the trend of viewing integrity through a cult-like lens.
We delve into modern relationship dynamics, noting how societal pressures can lead men to feel "on strike" regarding commitment. I argue for the importance of philosophy in understanding morality, challenging the idea that science alone can define ethical standards.
Listeners can expect insights into the roots of dysfunctional relationship patterns linked to childhood experiences, highlighting the significance of self-worth and authenticity in connections. This episode encourages a re-evaluation of personal beliefs and moral integrity in today's complex world.

| 0:19.5 | It's the best way to do it. And... |
| 0:23.6 | All right. So, hey, Steph, I was wondering if you had any suggestions for books slash stories for my six-year-old daughter. She loves the emperor has no clothes that you suggested in a preview show. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Well, I would just take some |
| 0:43.2 | fairy tales, a grim's fairy tales, read through them. Don't sanitize them too much. She's six, not four. |
| 0:49.3 | And just say, well, what could this mean, right? What could this mean? Why would all of the mothers be |
| 0:56.6 | stepmothers in Grimm's fairy tales? Why would they be stepmothers? And what does that mean? Right? So, |
| 1:03.9 | there's two answers really to that. Number one is that a lot of kids can't process that their |
| 1:09.3 | moms are really mean. so they imagine that the |
| 1:11.0 | good loving mom was taken out, yonked out, and replaced with the evil stepmother. |
| 1:15.8 | That's number one. |
| 1:16.5 | And number two is that stepmother is kind of dangerous, right? |
| 1:23.6 | So non-biologically related adults in a household with children are generally assholes. |
| 1:31.8 | They're generally predatory for reasons of obvious evolutionary and familial fitness reasons. |
| 1:38.0 | So it's not good. It's not good. All right. |
| 1:42.1 | Hey, Steph, Elon Musk, and Donald Trump need you to make one more political analysis podcast |
| 1:46.8 | to help wrestle government spending. |
