In this final holiday edition of The Wright Report for the week, Bryan shares economic good news, responds to listener questions about immigration, judges, and American identity, and offers a deeper reflection on what it truly means to be an American in a time of division, foreign influence, and cultural strain. Economic Bright Spots After Christmas: New data from Visa, MasterCard, and American Express show holiday spending rose between four and six percent year over year. GDP growth for the third quarter came in at a strong 4.3%, beating expectations. Bryan notes that while wealthy Americans are still doing well, middle and lower-income families continue to struggle with affordability. He argues the data supports Trump's case that tariffs and deportations did not crash the economy, but instead helped stabilize growth and reduce crime. Crime Falls as Deportations Rise: More than seventeen thousand illegal immigrants have been arrested under the Laken Riley Act, with two and a half million deported or self-deported over the past year. Early crime data suggests declines in murder, robbery, and vehicle theft. Bryan cautions the data is still incomplete but says the trend aligns with common sense and historical experience. Military Recruiting Surges: The U.S. military reported its strongest recruiting numbers in fifteen years. Bryan credits leadership changes at the Pentagon and renewed focus on mission and standards, pushing back on critics who predicted chaos under Secretary Pete Hegseth. Judges, Bias, and the Rule of Law: Listener questions focus on Democrat Judge Hannah Dugan's conviction for helping an illegal immigrant escape her courtroom. Bryan explains why jury reluctance to convict shows the cultural divide remains deep. He also defends his practice of identifying which president appointed judges, arguing that judicial bias is real and supported by Supreme Court reversal data. What It Means to Be an American: Bryan expands on Monday's debate about American identity, pushing back on Vivek Ramaswamy's claim that no American is more American than another. Drawing on the Founders, George Washington's farewell address, and the presidency's constitutional requirements, Bryan argues that allegiance, time in the country, cultural assimilation, and freedom from foreign loyalties all matter. He warns that dismissing heritage and lineage risks turning the United States into a fragmented society similar to modern Europe. Listener Questions and Reflections: The episode closes with unscripted questions on Israel, artificial intelligence and future jobs, personal interests, and Bryan's path from the CIA into broadcasting. He encourages young listeners to pursue skills that require judgment and adaptability, citing careers like the Merchant Marines as one example in an AI-driven future.

Happy Holidays! It's the “lost week” (and the last week) of the year and besties Stacy and Daynah finally share their thoughts on The Pitt. Spoiler alert: They agree with most of the internet – it's good and feels so different from every other medical drama on TV. From grief, burnout, and moral injury to power, bias, and what good care actually looks like, they explore how the show captures the emotional and systemic realities of healthcare without turning them into spectacle. Along the way, they talk Noah Wyle's perfectly calibrated performance, the weight of COVID-era trauma, why certain storylines hit uncomfortably close to home, and how The Pitt manages to be both devastating and deeply human. 00:00 | Opening + why The Pitt works 08:00 | Casting, Noah Wyle, and credibility 16:30 | COVID trauma and moral injury 25:00 | Burnout, systems, and impossible choices 33:45 | Bias, belief, and who gets care 42:15 | Violence, vulnerability, and the ER 50:30 | What good care actually means 56:30 | Final thoughts + why it lingers Find Stacy: realeverything.com instagram.com/realstacytoth missionmakersart.com missionalchemists.com Learn more about your ad choices.

Wenn zwei Sprachbots einen Podcast machen würden, wäre das Resultat vermutlich fehlerfrei, formvollendet – und vollkommen uninteressant. Denn echte Kommunikation lebt von etwas, das jenseits der Rechenleistung liegt: dem Überraschenden, dem Unplanbaren, dem menschlichen Impuls, der nicht nur wiederholt, was schon gesagt wurde. Wolfgang Lüdenbürger-Reidenbach bringt diesen Gedanken mit einer entwaffnenden Klarheit auf den Punkt: Künstliche Intelligenz kann helfen, sortieren, neu kombinieren – aber nicht das echte Neue hervorbringen.Gerade deshalb ist der kreative Spielraum heute größer denn je. Weil generative Modelle Routinearbeit übernehmen, bleibt mehr Raum für Strategien, Ideen, für präzise Visualisierungen und für inklusives Arbeiten – etwa, wenn Menschen mit ADHS durch KI erstmals zusammenhängend schreiben können. 2026, sagt Wolfgang, werde das Jahr der Ideen sein. Ein Jahr, in dem Kommunikation nicht verschwindet, sondern sich neu erfindet.Aber all das ist nicht technikgetrieben, sondern haltungsgeladen. Denn wer Inhalte personalisiert, gestaltet auch Wahrnehmung – und muss sich fragen, wessen Realität er eigentlich reproduziert. Dass KI männliche Gesichter besser generiert als weibliche, ist kein Zufall, sondern ein Bias. Und der ruft nach Aufklärung, nach Transparenz, nach Verantwortung.Was also tun? Sich frisch an die Arbeit machen. Nicht als naiver Optimist, sondern mit einem klaren Blick auf die Unvollkommenheit – und der Überzeugung, dass das Bessere möglich ist.Zu Gast: Wolfgang Lünenburger-Reidenbach, Kommunikations- und Digitalexperte, Managing Director Germany bei DEPTCreate your podcast today! #madeonzencastr
We pivot from PSA market power into something more personal: how public identity labels change behavior. If Spectrum results are visible, do people “answer toward who they want to be” instead of who they are? Does the hobby stigmatize flippers and dealers in a way that creates bias and self-reporting issues? Leighton joins briefly to share holiday wishes, show a few personal pickups, and then drops a surprise giveaway for the Sports Cards Live community. From there, the show bounces into a fun but legit vintage debate: 1948 Leaf Jackie vs 1949 Bowman Jackie, why the price gap exists, and why true oddball scarcity like Bond Bread still gets ignored by many collectors. We finish with some classic end-of-year stream energy, including a Bears comeback story and a quick WAR trivia segment. In this segment: Spectrum Directory updates: add your links, build discoverability, help people find you across social and hobby platforms The “assessment vs quiz vs test” framing, and why self-reporting can get messy when results are public Stigma in the hobby: flippers, dealers, and why some sellers feel better when they learn a card is going to a PC Transparency talk: leading by example as a creator, and why “hiding” can create its own assumptions Leighton joins, shares PC pickups (including a T206 and a modern 1/1 story), then gives away a 1958 Topps Ted Williams Live giveaway draw and winner announcement 1948 Leaf vs 1949 Bowman Jackie: aesthetics, demand, set prestige, and the “PSA decides reality” joke The curveball: Bond Bread Jackie scarcity and why mainstream collectors still treat it like an oddball footnote Bears vs Packers: the onside kick swing and overtime finish WAR trivia: which player led MLB in WAR the most seasons (answer revealed in the segment) Reminder: The Spectrum Directory is currently visible only to members inside the system, and retakes will be limited to once every 30 days so the profile stays meaningful over time.

Mental health is an important part of our overall health, but many people confront barriers that keep them from accessing the mental health care they need. A program in Boston aims to address mental health disparities by disrupting traditional health care models. The Boston Emergency Services Team, or BEST, is led by Dr. David Henderson, chief of psychiatry at Boston Medical Center. BEST brings together mental health providers, community resources, law enforcement, and the judicial system to deliver care to people in need of mental health services. Henderson says bringing mental health providers alongside police responding to calls for service for mental health needs has helped reduce the number of people with mental illness ending up in jails and prisons. “The criminal justice system has, by default, become one of the largest mental health systems … around the country as well,” Henderson says. “People with mental illness are in jails and prisons, at a percentage that they really should not be.” In a conversation that first published in 2024, Henderson speaks with Movement Is Life's Hadiya Green about what it takes to ensure people in need of mental health services get the help they need, why it's important to train providers to recognize unconscious biases, and what it means to provide trauma-informed and culturally sensitive care.
In this episode of Dr. Marianne-Land, I speak with fat activist, TEDx speaker, author, DEI expert, and podcast host Vinny Welsby (they/them) about anti-fat bias in healthcare, weight stigma in medicine, and the real-world harm fat patients experience when seeking medical care. Vinny, who shares extensively about fat liberation, weight-inclusive care, and dismantling diet culture on Instagram at @fierce.fatty, brings both lived experience and data into this conversation. This episode centers on Vinny's survey of 270 fat people, in which 99.25% reported experiencing weight-based discrimination in healthcare. These findings expose how common medical weight stigma, anti-fatness, and provider bias truly are, and why so many fat people delay or avoid healthcare altogether. Weight Stigma in Healthcare: Survey Data and Lived Experience We break down what those survey results actually mean for patients. Vinny shares stories of medical dismissal, misdiagnosis, delayed treatment, and humiliation in healthcare settings, including being told to lose weight instead of receiving appropriate medical evaluation. We discuss how weight stigma shows up through provider assumptions, lack of size-inclusive equipment, routine weighing without consent, and dismissive or dehumanizing language. This section highlights how anti-fat bias in healthcare leads to worse physical health outcomes, increased medical trauma, and deep mistrust of medical systems. Medical Trauma, Nervous System Effects, and Avoiding Care We explore how repeated experiences of weight stigma activate the nervous system and create medical trauma. Even scheduling an appointment can trigger fear, shame, and exhaustion. Vinny and I talk about how this chronic stress contributes to people avoiding preventive care, delaying diagnosis, and experiencing worsening health conditions as a result. This conversation connects anti-fat bias, mental health, eating disorders, and healthcare avoidance, naming how the system often blames fat bodies for the very harm it causes. Intersectionality: Fatness, Gender, Queerness, and Neurodivergence A major focus of this episode is intersectionality. Vinny shares how anti-fatness intersected with being trans, nonbinary, queer, neurodivergent, and disabled, and how shame around body size limited access to identity exploration and self-expression. We talk about how weight stigma compounds oppression, especially for people with multiple marginalized identities. We also discuss how white privilege can reduce some harms while never eliminating weight-based discrimination, and why weight-inclusive healthcare must address racism, transphobia, ableism, and fatphobia together. What Weight-Inclusive Healthcare Actually Requires We challenge the idea that good intentions equal good care. This section explores what weight-inclusive healthcare truly requires, including provider education, consent-based weighing, size-inclusive furniture and equipment, respectful language, and accountability when harm occurs. We discuss why many providers believe they are weight-inclusive while continuing to practice weight-centered and stigmatizing care. Unlearning Anti-Fatness, Shame, and Diet Culture We close with guidance for beginning the process of unlearning anti-fatness. Vinny shares how shame thrives in isolation and how bringing it into the light reduces its power. We discuss diet culture, binary thinking, and how critical thinking helps people question harmful beliefs about weight, health, morality, and worth. This episode invites listeners to ask who benefits when people are taught to hate their bodies, and how compassion, curiosity, and community support healing. Who This Episode Is For This episode is for fat people, eating disorder survivors, clinicians, healthcare providers, and anyone who wants to understand how weight stigma in healthcare causes harm and what needs to change. About My Guest: Vinny Welsby (They/Them) Vinny Welsby is a fat activist, DEI leader, TEDx speaker, bestselling author of Fierce Fatty, and host of the Fierce Fatty Podcast. They work with individuals through Fierce Fatty and with organizations through Weight Inclusive Consulting, providing education and training on dismantling anti-fat bias in healthcare and beyond.

As more growers turn to digital tools for decisions on the farm, one of the emerging challenges is making sure those technologies stay unbiased.
Kvinfos direktør Henriette Laursen havnede i en regulær shitstorm, efter hun i et Facebook-opslag kommenterede, at det var 5 mænd - inden for en vis aldersgruppe og med nogenlunde samme baggrund - der afsagde dom i sagen om Jes Dorphs' advokatundersøgelse. Kritikken lød, at det var farligt at så tvivl om Højesteret ved at insinuere, at dommen kunne have været anderledes, hvis der havde været kvinder til stede i dommer-kappen. Men nu pibler det pludselig frem med opbakning til Laursen fra både advokater, forskere og ligestillingsforkæmpere. P1 Debat spørger: Er dommere biased? Skal Højesteret være mere divers? Er det farligt at problematisere kønsfordelingen i Højesteret? Eller er det helt nødvendigt, for at vi fortsat kan have tillid til Retsstaten?

Unconscious bias is part of being human, and pretending it doesn't exist is a waste of time. You can't train it out of people, and you can't erase it from yourself—it's how we recognize patterns and survive. The real mistake is trying to eliminate bias instead of understanding it. In this episode, I explain why bias is hardwired and how you can flip it to work for you instead of letting it work against you. Show Notes: [05:25]#1 Bias is not evil, it's efficiency. [10:47]#2 All human beings make instant judgments. [18:39]#3 Your own biases may expose your weaknesses.

What if the algorithms guiding our decisions aren't just tools but mirrors reflecting our own unacknowledged biases? In this episode, we unravel the intricate dance between technology and human consciousness, probing the unsettling reality that our digital companions may inadvertently perpetuate societal prejudices. Through vivid case studies and thought-provoking insights, we confront the paradox: are we crafting the future, or are we merely reshaping our past? Buckle up as we challenge what it means to be human in an era where data meets decision-making.
Is a car that wins a Formula 1 race the best choice for your morning commute? Probably not. In this sponsored deep dive with Prolific, we explore why the same logic applies to Artificial Intelligence. While models are currently shattering records on technical exams, they often fail the most important test of all: **the human experience.**Why High Benchmark Scores Don't Mean Better AIJoining us are **Andrew Gordon** (Staff Researcher in Behavioral Science) and **Nora Petrova** (AI Researcher) from **Prolific**. They reveal the hidden flaws in how we currently rank AI and introduce a more rigorous, "humane" way to measure whether these models are actually helpful, safe, and relatable for real people.---Key Insights in This Episode:* *The F1 Car Analogy:* Andrew explains why a model that excels at the "Humanities Last Exam" might be a nightmare for daily use. Technical benchmarks often ignore the nuances of human communication and adaptability.* *The "Wild West" of AI Safety:* As users turn to AI for sensitive topics like mental health, Nora highlights the alarming lack of oversight and the "thin veneer" of safety training—citing recent controversial incidents like Grok-3's "Mecha Hitler."* *Fixing the "Leaderboard Illusion":* The team critiques current popular rankings like Chatbot Arena, discussing how anonymous, unstratified voting can lead to biased results and how companies can "game" the system.* *The Xbox Secret to AI Ranking:* Discover how Prolific uses *TrueSkill*—the same algorithm Microsoft developed for Xbox Live matchmaking—to create a fairer, more statistically sound leaderboard for LLMs.* *The Personality Gap:* Early data from the **Humane Leaderboard** suggests that while AI is getting smarter, it is actually performing *worse* on metrics like personality, culture, and "sycophancy" (the tendency for models to become annoying "people-pleasers").---About the HUMAINE LeaderboardMoving beyond simple "A vs. B" testing, the researchers discuss their new framework that samples participants based on *census data* (Age, Ethnicity, Political Alignment). By using a representative sample of the general public rather than just tech enthusiasts, they are building a standard that reflects the values of the real world.*Are we building models for benchmarks, or are we building them for humans?

Echoes of Discrimination traces how past injustices reverberate into the present, shaping policies, perceptions, and everyday experiences. It uncovers the subtle and overt ways bias repeats itself across generations — in schools, workplaces, neighborhoods, and institutions — revealing how old narratives quietly inform new forms of inequality.

It concerns who receives permission to define reality inside intimacy—and who quietly loses that permission without a vote. Most people believe they value truth. They say they want honesty. They claim openness. Yet inside their closest relationships, something strange happens. The closer the messenger stands, the less credible the message feels. The more a partner knows you, the less you trust what they see. Truth does not lose accuracy. Truth loses clearance. This phenomenon does not announce itself as cruelty. It disguises itself as discernment. The mind whispers, You feel too much. You take things personally. You bring history into everything. The words sound reasonable. The effect devastates intimacy.

Chewing and spitting is an eating disorder behavior that often remains hidden due to intense shame and misunderstanding. Many people do not know how to talk about it, and many providers never ask. In this solo episode, Dr. Marianne Miller offers a clear, compassionate explanation of chewing and spitting in eating disorders, naming why this behavior develops and why it deserves nuanced care rather than judgment. This episode centers eating disorder recovery, ARFID, neurodivergent sensory experiences with food, and the nervous system roots of eating behaviors that are often moralized or overlooked. Why Chewing and Spitting Is So Often Misunderstood Chewing and spitting is frequently framed as a single behavior with a single cause. This narrow understanding creates harm. When providers assume chewing and spitting always reflects restriction or compensatory behavior, people with ARFID and sensory-based eating challenges are misdiagnosed or pressured into unsafe treatment. When providers minimize chewing and spitting in restrictive eating disorders, people lose access to support at moments of increasing distress. This episode explains why chewing and spitting must be understood through multiple pathways to ensure accurate diagnosis and ethical care. Pathway One: Chewing and Spitting in Restrictive and Compensatory Eating Disorders In restrictive or compensatory eating disorders, chewing and spitting often functions as a way to avoid swallowing food while still experiencing taste. It may emerge during periods of significant restriction, intense hunger, or fear of weight gain. Some people use chewing and spitting to interrupt binge urges or as a purge-adjacent behavior. In this pathway, the behavior reflects deprivation, internal conflict, and rising eating disorder severity. Shame, secrecy, and fear of judgment frequently follow, making it harder for individuals to seek support or speak openly about what they are experiencing. Pathway Two: Chewing and Spitting in ARFID and Neurodivergent Sensory-Based Eating Chewing and spitting can also emerge in ARFID and neurodivergent sensory-based eating for reasons entirely unrelated to weight or dieting. In this pathway, the behavior reflects sensory overwhelm, swallowing discomfort, texture sensitivity, interoceptive differences, or nervous system safety needs. Autistic and ADHD individuals may chew food to explore taste while spitting to avoid gagging, panic, or sensory overload. When this pathway is misunderstood as compensatory eating disorder behavior, people often feel pathologized rather than supported. This episode explains how sensory wiring, disability, and safety needs shape this experience. Why Differentiating These Two Pathways Matters in Recovery Accurately identifying the function of chewing and spitting is essential for healing. Restrictive and compensatory pathways require approaches that address deprivation, shame, trauma, and rigid food rules. Sensory-based pathways require approaches that build safety, honor autonomy, and work with the nervous system rather than against it. Dr. Marianne explains why a one-size-fits-all model fails and how differentiation creates clarity, trust, and more sustainable eating disorder recovery. Intersectionality, Bias, and Systemic Harm This episode also explores how anti-fat bias, racism, ableism, and medical bias shape who receives care and who gets believed. People in larger bodies often experience intense pressure to restrict, which can intensify chewing and spitting behaviors. People of color frequently face delayed or missed eating disorder diagnoses. Neurodivergent individuals are often misunderstood or dismissed when their eating challenges are sensory-based. Understanding chewing and spitting requires naming these systemic harms rather than blaming individuals. A Compassionate Path Forward Chewing and spitting is not a moral failure or a sign of weakness. It is a behavior rooted in nervous system responses, lived experience, and survival. This episode offers language, validation, and clarity for anyone who has struggled with chewing and spitting, supported someone who has, or wants a more nuanced understanding of eating disorders and ARFID. Healing begins with understanding, safety, and compassion. About Dr. Marianne Miller Dr. Marianne Miller is a licensed marriage and family therapist specializing in eating disorder recovery, ARFID, binge eating, and neurodivergent-affirming therapy. She offers therapy for individuals in California, Texas, and Washington D.C., and teaches the self-paced, virtual ARFID and Selective Eating Course.

Episode Description What if the peak of your career isn't when you're most celebrated—but when you no longer need to be? In this powerful and deeply reflective episode of the BOSS Business of Surgery Series, Dr. Amy Vertrees sits down with surgical oncologist and former military surgeon Dr. Matthew Hueman to explore belonging, burnout, identity, and the quiet work of finding peace in a demanding profession. Dr. Hueman shares his journey from growing up in a military family and training at West Point, to six military deployments where he discovered the true cost—and power—of belonging. He reflects on the flattening of hierarchy during his final deployment in Somalia and how that experience reshaped his understanding of purpose, leadership, and authenticity. After transitioning to civilian healthcare, Dr. Hueman found himself burned out—not from working hard, but from doing work that felt increasingly disconnected from meaning. That realization ultimately led him to leave a large healthcare system and focus his practice on breast cancer care, where he now prioritizes presence, relationships, and helping patients find peace amid uncertainty. Together, Drs. Vertrees and Hueman challenge long-held surgical norms around endurance, ownership, prestige, and external validation. They discuss why breast surgery is often undervalued, how surgeons delay happiness waiting for the “next milestone,” and what it really means to build a career that feels aligned—without waiting for permission. This episode is an invitation to stop postponing peace—and to begin finding it now. What You'll Learn in This Episode Why burnout is often about meaningless work, not workload The hidden cost of belonging—and why it matters in medicine How military experiences can reshape leadership and purpose Why breast surgery offers profound professional fulfillment How surgeons tie self-worth to endurance and external validation What it means to reach the “peak” of your career How to help patients—and ourselves—find peace in uncertainty Memorable Quotes “The peak of your career isn't when you're most celebrated. It's when you don't need to be celebrated at all.” “The hardest work feels weightless when it's aligned with purpose.” “Burnout isn't about working too hard—it's about meaningless hard work.” “You shouldn't postpone peace. You should do it today.” Chapters / Timestamps 00:00 – Dr. Hueman's background and early life 02:31 – West Point and the meaning of belonging 03:31 – Military deployments and evolving purpose 05:35 – Transition to civilian healthcare and burnout 08:16 – Comparing military and civilian medical missions 10:36 – Rethinking burnout in medicine 14:42 – Choosing breast cancer care 26:26 – Bias against breast surgery 37:10 – Redefining success and fulfillment 39:56 – Building a values-driven private practice 42:51 – Helping patients live with uncertainty 47:36 – Gratitude and emotional capacity About the Guest Dr. Matthew Hueman is a surgical oncologist with a focus on breast cancer care and a former U.S. Army surgeon with six deployments. After leaving a large healthcare organization, he built a private practice centered on presence, autonomy, and helping patients find peace in uncertainty. His work explores purpose, belonging, and meaning in medicine. About the Host Dr. Amy Vertrees is a general and breast surgeon, host of the BOSS Business of Surgery Series, and founder of Become the BOSS MD, a coaching program for surgeons focused on mindset, communication, and professional fulfillment.
What if your glasses could spot a deepfake before your gut does? We sit down with Jean Marc Seigneur, a veteran researcher of decentralized trust, to map where security failed, where it's catching up, and how proof—not vibes—will anchor the next decade of digital life. From central bank digital currencies to NFTs that carry qualified electronic signatures, we unpack how legal recognition and cryptography can finally meet in the middle, turning tokens into enforceable rights and payments into reliable public infrastructure.We also go beyond buzzwords to the missing pieces: education and design. Friendly apps hide sharp edges, so we talk about why countries need their own experts, not just imported tech, and how wallets must evolve with safer recovery, better defaults, and interfaces that explain risk without slowing you down. AI raises the stakes, so we explore signed videos, verifiable identities, and provenance trails that help you tell a real voice from a cloned one at a glance. Reputation won't live on a web page for long; it's moving into the physical world as augmented overlays that can help or harm depending on what they reveal and to whom.Bias won't vanish either, because human trust is social and local. We discuss how to balance peer signals with regulators' oversight, why transparency about AI use will give way to tracking human effort, and what a time-based “work token” could add to creative markets. The red thread across it all—payments, NFTs, augmented humans, and AI media—is simple and demanding: protect freedom while proving claims. If we want technology that empowers rather than deceives, we have to design, debate, and defend the trust layer itself.Enjoy the conversation?

Today we're going to talk about a cognitive bias that causes people to believe, often mistakenly, that they are less likely to experience negative events and more likely to experience positive events than others. Estimates suggest that 80% of us display what's known as the optimism bias. For example, we might think that we are less likely to get sick, lose our job, or have a car accident than the average person. We might also think that we are more likely to live longer, be successful, or win the lottery than others. Why do we have such a bias? And how does it affect our decisions and actions?

Madras High Court judge Justice G.R. Swaminathan has found himself embroiled in controversy more than once. The first-generation lawyer has often been in the eye of a storm in recent months, both for his orders in court and statements outside the courtroom—from praising the Vedas to saying the Constitution hinges on the country's “demographic profile”. Now, over 100 INDIA bloc MPs, led by the Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam's (DMK) Kanimozhi Karunanidhi, have moved a motion before Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla. https://youtu.be/inN1eyYC1HI

Join us for an informative discussion with John De Goey, a professional portfolio manager, published author, and dedicated advocate for financial consumers. John shares his journey into finance, which was fueled by a desire to challenge the "amoral" practices of the financial services industry and protect consumers from misleading information. This advocacy is the foundation of his work and his books, including his latest, Bullshift: How Optimism Bias Threatens Your Finances. We discuss the core problem: both advisors and investors often fall victim to cognitive biases, believing things "for sure that just ain't so". John explains that the industry benefits from keeping clients "bullish," leading people to ignore high debt, expensive markets, and other warning signs. To combat this, he champions Decision Hygiene—the active process of challenging your own assumptions and priors, rather than seeking out information that confirms what you already believe (confirmation bias). He shares why he transitioned to discretionary portfolio management to prevent clients' emotions from derailing sound investment plans, demonstrating that sometimes, letting a fiduciary make unemotional decisions is the best way to secure a client's wealth. An empowered human, John concludes, is simply one who is self-aware and makes choices based on truth, not just self-interest.

Philosopher Stefan Molyneux tackles whether humans can think without anthropomorphic biases, drawing insights from discussions with AI. We explore the impact of biases on our reasoning and the importance of critiquing authority figures like parents. The conversation questions the reliability of knowledge, highlighting how narratives are influenced by power dynamics.I discuss the challenges posed by economic dependencies and social pressures on objectivity, as well as psychological barriers that hinder admitting errors. The episode invites listeners to reflect on their relationship with truth and engage with the complexities of bias and rational discourse.The listener's question:"Do humans, even, have the ability to think and philosophize with absolutely zero anthropomorphic bias? The more I discuss philosophy with AI the more of my own anthropomorphic bias I find in my own arguments. This can serve to invalidate or at the very least undermine much of our philosophical ideas."SUBSCRIBE TO ME ON X! https://x.com/StefanMolyneuxFollow me on Youtube! https://www.youtube.com/@freedomain1GET MY NEW BOOK 'PEACEFUL PARENTING', THE INTERACTIVE PEACEFUL PARENTING AI, AND THE FULL AUDIOBOOK!https://peacefulparenting.com/Join the PREMIUM philosophy community on the web for free!Subscribers get 12 HOURS on the "Truth About the French Revolution," multiple interactive multi-lingual philosophy AIs trained on thousands of hours of my material - as well as AIs for Real-Time Relationships, Bitcoin, Peaceful Parenting, and Call-In Shows!You also receive private livestreams, HUNDREDS of exclusive premium shows, early release podcasts, the 22 Part History of Philosophers series and much more!See you soon!https://freedomain.locals.com/support/promo/UPB2025
