Podcasts about Antinatalism

John and Jonathan unpack the narrow House passage of Trump's “One Big Beautiful Bill” and its sweeping pro-life provisions—especially the 10-year defunding of Planned Parenthood. They reflect on legislative history, the power of reconciliation, and ponder its chances in the Senate. Plus: a bizarre bombing at a California IVF clinic opens a deeper conversation on the ethics of IVF and what Trump's upcoming executive order could mean for the future of life policy.

For me, antinatalism means that I have no offspring, I don't plan on having any, and I wouldn't mind – might even be pleased – if everyone followed suit. The “wouldn't mind” and “might even be pleased” bits take me so deep into moral philosophy that it remains to be seen whether I can find my way back. They also define the limits of my extinctionism. My nihilism – if any – is still under construction. We'll see if I have anything sensible to say about it. If not, I'll have to ask the rest of the park philosophers present. I'm sure we'll figure something out, together. Park Philosophy 2025: https://puistofilosofia.fi/puistofilosofia-2025/

Her and her fiancee are proudly childfree by choice, a decision reinforced by what she witnesses in her career as a divorce and child custody attorney. We'll be talking to her about her day-to-day as well as her legal "thesis,” which argued why women shouldn't get married in the 21st century. Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/dinky--5953015/support.

Our guest today needs no introduction, as she's the guest of our most-beloved episode. That's right, we're talking to Marcia Drut-Davis to cap off our three-part series on childfree trailblazers. Now 82 years young, Marcia is a pioneer of the childfree lifestyle and author of two books: ‘Confessions Of A Childfree Woman' and ‘What? You Don't Want Children?' In 1974, Marcia revealed her childfree status on national television on a groundbreaking segment of ‘60 Minutes.' We'll be asking her all about the fabulous adventures she's had in the past few years, what advice she has on making intergenerational friendships and so much more.Dinky is now on Substack — free of charge!

Who should be included in our 'moral circle' when we make our moral decisions? Jeff discusses the ethical responsibilities we might have towards non-human beings, such as Neanderthals, AIs, or even figments of our imagination.

On this episode we learn what it is to be an antinatalist. This is a philosophy that calls for the extinction of the human race and possibly all other sentient life forms. Basically they think if something bad could happen then you should never risk it. Have these people ever seen a casino? It would blow their minds. Adam Busch joins the show and is blown away by how much fun the host of an antinatalism podcast is having. Rob Saul lashed out at me and it reveals a lot about what's going on in his head. Aaron Imholte told his audience that he's broken my brain; we prove that he's lying about me and has zero credibility. Opie continues to use a random tweet that wasn't about him to go hard at Jim Norton. Chad Zumock has been begging for our attention for years and now he's upset that we acknowledged him for some reason even he can't figure out. Fleece Johnson is now sorry about raping guys in prison. Stuttering John has a new Cameo about Woke Dad and his new one man show is terrible!

Should you have kids? It's a question most of us will ask ourselves at some point in our lives. Antinatalists have an easy and categories answer for you, regardless of your life circumstance: don't. In fact, it is immoral, they claim, to bring new life into this world. Lawrence Anton, editor of the Antinatalist Handbook, and Amanda Sukenick, host of The Exploring Antinatalism Podcast, join the program to make the case against having kids.

Check the website here: http://enlites.com/   Lawrence Anton has a YouTube channel on antinatalism - @LawrenceAnton.   In this episode, we discuss antinatalism. We start by talking about how Lawrence got into antinatalism. We then explore some of the most common arguments for antinatalism, like the asymmetry argument, whether we can say that life is objectively bad, whether death is a harm, and the argument based on consent. We also talk about the most compelling arguments against antinatalism. We discuss a thought experiment about being able to choose to never be born. We talk about the selfishness of arguments for having kids. Finally, we discuss extinctionism, whether human extinction would be good or bad, and arguments put forth by transhumanists and longtermists. -- A HUGE THANK YOU TO MY PATRONS/SUPPORTERS: PER HELGE LARSEN, JERRY MULLER, BERNARDO SEIXAS, ADAM KESSEL, MATTHEW WHITINGBIRD, ARNAUD WOLFF, TIM HOLLOSY, HENRIK AHLENIUS, FILIP FORS CONNOLLY, DAN DEMETRIOU, ROBERT WINDHAGER, RUI INACIO, ZOOP, MARCO NEVES, COLIN HOLBROOK, PHIL KAVANAGH, SAMUEL ANDREEFF, FRANCIS FORDE, TIAGO NUNES, FERGAL CUSSEN, HAL HERZOG, NUNO MACHADO, JONATHAN LEIBRANT, JOÃO LINHARES, STANTON T, SAMUEL CORREA, ERIK HAINES, MARK SMITH, JOÃO EIRA, TOM HUMMEL, SARDUS FRANCE, DAVID SLOAN WILSON, YACILA DEZA-ARAUJO, ROMAIN ROCH, DIEGO LONDOÑO CORREA, YANICK PUNTER, CHARLOTTE BLEASE, NICOLE BARBARO, ADAM HUNT, PAWEL OSTASZEWSKI, NELLEKE BAK, GUY MADISON, GARY G HELLMANN, SAIMA AFZAL, ADRIAN JAEGGI, PAULO TOLENTINO, JOÃO BARBOSA, JULIAN PRICE, EDWARD HALL, HEDIN BRØNNER, DOUGLAS FRY, FRANCA BORTOLOTTI, GABRIEL PONS CORTÈS, URSULA LITZCKE, SCOTT, ZACHARY FISH, TIM DUFFY, SUNNY SMITH, JON WISMAN, WILLIAM BUCKNER, PAUL-GEORGE ARNAUD, LUKE GLOWACKI, GEORGIOS THEOPHANOUS, CHRIS WILLIAMSON, PETER WOLOSZYN, DAVID WILLIAMS, DIOGO COSTA, ALEX CHAU, AMAURI MARTÍNEZ, CORALIE CHEVALLIER, BANGALORE ATHEISTS, LARRY D.

This might be our most requested episode EVER. In August, the United States Surgeon General Dr. Vivek Murthy issued an advisory with the claim that parenting is a hazard to your health and mental well-being. The full document from the Surgeon General is roughly 30 pages and let me tell you, if you thought parenting sounded horrible before, let me tell you: it's worse than you think! We'll get into what the study found, and discuss what they're recommending as opportunities to lessen parental stress. Take the ANXIETY and DEPRESSION screenings. Join Dinky's Peloton group!Support this show.

Sunday Morning Live 29 September 2024In this episode, I tackle existential questions and personal responsibility within society, starting with Albert Camus' perspective on suicide and its implications on upbringing and choice. I share insights on parenting and antinatalism, critique societal ideals of equality, and discuss the significant roles women play in shaping future generations. Shifting to education, I examine the struggles teachers face and the effects of classroom disruptions on progress. I argue against the fear of declining birth rates, suggesting that managing population change can yield positive outcomes. Ultimately, I highlight the importance of embracing discomfort and self-reflection as keys to personal growth and societal improvement.The livestream continues for donors here: https://premium.freedomain.com/66faeb1b723768cda30fac75/how-not-to-get-targeted-donor-onlyGET MY NEW BOOK 'PEACEFUL PARENTING', THE INTERACTIVE PEACEFUL PARENTING AI, AND AUDIOBOOK!https://peacefulparenting.com/Join the PREMIUM philosophy community on the web for free!Also get the Truth About the French Revolution, the interactive multi-lingual philosophy AI trained on thousands of hours of my material, private livestreams, premium call in shows, the 22 Part History of Philosophers series and much more!See you soon!https://freedomain.locals.com/support/promo/UPB2022

Two years ago on Reddit, user dettispaghetti wrote on the truechildfree subreddit on a post titled “Euthanasia will be an option when we're old and decrepit.” Saying, “Seriously... the answer to the age old question of who will change your diapers when you're old is no one. People will not be dying agonizing cancer deaths in a few decades either. Whenever people have asked me this I have always told them I am never going to be an old hag suffering in pain regardless of whether I have children or not.Euthanasia is already becoming legalized in more and more places, by the time we're old it will be widely available and accessible to old people who can't fend for themselves. I would never waste my money or my children's money paying for assisted living or whatever, even if I had kids that money would go to them instead of prolonging my misery. Some people sell their houses so they can pay for assisted living which is a waste of your life's work and you are taking that money from whoever would inherit the house. This point of view will be the norm when we're old, quality of life is what is important, not quantity.”So, today we're talking about physician-assisted a death — the practice of receiving, essentially, legalized suicide support to end your life on your terms. We'll be looking at the pros and cons, where it's actually legal, how we feel about it, and more.Read more about death with dignity from our sources:EuroNews: Euthanasia in Europe: Where is assisted dying legal?Statista (InfoGraph): Where Most People Die by Assisted SuicideCNN: Physician-Assisted Suicide Fast FactsSupport this show.Our Switzerland trip + Portland meetups are officially *SOLD OUT.* Stay tuned for future trips! Wanna connect with us on social media?

Check the website here: http://enlites.com/   Dr. Matti Häyry is Professor of Philosophy at Aalto University School of Business, Finland. Dr. Häyry's main fields of interest have been moral and political philosophy and philosophical bioethics. His practical topics in bioethics have ranged from abortion, euthanasia, and resource allocation to genetics, systems biology, and synthetic biology. Theoretically, his work has centered on the main normative doctrines of European moral and political philosophy. He is the co-author of Antinatalism, Extinction, and the End of Procreative Self-Corruption.   In this episode, we focus on Antinatalism, Extinction, and the End of Procreative Self-Corruption. We start by talking about the history of antinatalism in the Western tradition, from ancient Greece to Christianity, and the past 300 years. We discuss other “isms” associated with antinatalism, and we focus on extinctionism. We talk about what constitutes a good life, and arguments against reproduction.
