Text us your questions!Is the drive to be better than others making us worse? We talk with theologian Miroslav Volf about his book The Cost of Ambition and explore why comparison-based striving saturates our schools, churches, workplaces, and politics. Volf separates healthy aspiration from superiority-seeking and makes a compelling case for excellence without domination, rooted in agape, i.e., unconditional love that affirms people beyond performance.We dig into the Christ hymn of Philippians 2 and why self-emptying is not weakness but a different kind of strength. Volf shows how resurrection and ascension empower humility rather than feed triumphalism and why honoring everyone is both a spiritual discipline and a democratic necessity. From the academy's “one-up” culture to the marketplace's imitation traps, he argues that obsessing over competitors blinds us to our unique gifts and corrodes joy. Even stalwart capitalists like Warren Buffett warn against competitor-fixation. Volf adds a deeper moral and theological critique as well, drawing on Paul's piercing question: What do you have that you did not receive?We also test his claims against Nietzsche's will to power, happiness research on social comparison, and the rise of Christian nationalism. Is Christ a moral stranger to our priorities? Volf challenges both sides of the aisle to recover mere humanity—Kierkegaard's vision of belovedness before achievement—and to practice agape toward others and ourselves. The result is a bracing, hopeful vision: strive for truth, craft, and contribution, not for status; pursue excellence as stewardship, not self-exaltation.If you're weary of the status treadmill yet still hungry to do meaningful work, this conversation will give you categories, language, and practices to recalibrate your aims.

In this episode, Chris explores how true capitalism aligns with moral order, human dignity, and the common good. Drawing from the Catechism of the Catholic Church, he shows how work is more than a paycheck—it's a duty, a path to personal growth, and even a means of sanctification. From ethical economic activity to self-policing communities, learn how genuine capitalism allows people to succeed, fail, create, and contribute while respecting others. A refreshing perspective for anyone frustrated by today's distorted view of the free market.

This episode originally broadcast on November 13, 2025. The original podcast post is here: https://pixelatedgeek.com/2025/11/binary-system-podcast-481-mayor-of-kingstown-and-star-trek-lower-decks/This week we're recapping episode 3 of the last season of Mayor of Kingstown, where pretty much everything is spiraling out of Mike's control. Rival gang members are murdering each other and setting their hangouts on fire, Kyle's falling under the influence of a dangerous inmate, Robert is a drunk time bomb ready to explode, and both Bunny's new friend and the new Warden are playing a dangerous game of "I'm the most powerful person here" and also "I really didn't take all the variables into account." But, y'know, that hot young rookie guard seems to have won Mike over by being nice to him, so hopefully she won't die.After that, Kathryn watched episode 6 of the final season of Star Trek: Lower Decks, which continues to be hilarious and freaking good-hearted. We also went off on a couple of tangents in this episode to rant about annoying AI recaps, and ads, and good god people, flogging a $400 gourmet lobster dinner delivery while people are trying to figure out how to feed their family do you really think this is the time and aaaarrrrgggh, why is Capitalism??This episode's outro is a clip from Millenia from Karl Casey @ White Bat.Follow along with the DragonFall Drawing Challenge on Instagram at FandragonAdams or Llyzabeth, or with the hashtag DragonFallDrawingChallenge2025.Looking for a present for that hard-to-shop-for person?

Nikos Sotirakopoulos Discusses His Journey from Marxism to ObjectivismIn this episode of The Rational Egoist, Dr. Nikos Sotirakopoulos joins Michael Liebowitz to share his intellectual journey from the radical Left to the philosophy of reason and individualism. Once an active Marxist, Nikos reflects on what drew him to collectivist movements in his youth and what ultimately led him to reject them.They discuss the emotional and philosophical appeal of Marxism, the moral void it attempts to fill, and why so many young people are still captivated by its promises today.

In this week's episode of Money Moves, Matty A. and Ryan Breedwell dives into one of the most critical and thought-provoking discussions of the year — how long-term debt, political ideology, and government policy are reshaping the American economy.With the government reopening and the markets reacting to a flood of new data, Matty breaks down the growing debate around 50-year mortgages, the rise of socialist-leaning policies, and what both mean for the future of capitalism, entrepreneurship, and personal wealth.He explores how expanding debt horizons could trap future generations, why entitlement culture threatens productivity, and how investors can navigate this shifting landscape of policy-driven markets. Beyond economics, Matty also reflects on mindset — how to stay empowered, self-reliant, and financially free in an era where dependency is being normalized.Episode Highlights:[00:01:00] The government reopens — what it means for markets and investor sentiment[00:04:30] 50-year mortgages — financial innovation or long-term debt trap?[00:09:45] The rise of socialism — economic implications and investor concerns[00:14:30] Capitalism vs. dependency — how culture shapes financial freedom[00:18:40] The real impact of government stimulus and debt expansion[00:23:10] How investors can protect themselves from policy-driven volatility[00:28:00] The long-term mindset — taking ownership of your wealth journeyEpisode Takeaways:50-year mortgages may offer affordability today but risk trapping future generations in permanent debt.Socialist-style policies create short-term relief but erode productivity, innovation, and long-term growth.Markets respond to stability, not politics — investors who stay long-term focused outperform the emotional majority.Financial independence is a mindset. You can't rely on the government to make you wealthy — only discipline, ownership, and action can.Episode Sponsored By:Discover Financial Millionaire Mindcast Shop: Buy the Rich Life Planner and Get the Wealth-Building Bundle for FREE!

Objetivismo, Aborto, Moral Objetiva e Estado Mínimo Objectivism, Abortion, Objective Morality, and the Minimal State | Yaron Brook Interviewed
Brad and Abbey Zerbo are back for a cozy, thought-provoking Brad & Abbey Live, blending life on their rugged Alaska property with lessons in freedom and self-reliance. Between stories of rain-soaked shed building, power-tool adventures, and karaoke FOMO from GART, the couple dives deep into capitalism, competence, and what it truly means to live free. They share insights from Jordan Peterson on hierarchies of skill, play a Hillsdale College lecture on the moral foundations of capitalism, and connect it all to daily life, from private property to resisting government overreach. The conversation flows into education, socialism's cultural creep, climate change as a globalist control tool, and how capitalism remains the only system that lets people flourish through honest work. Lighthearted banter meets serious truth bombs as the Zerbros mix humor, faith, and philosophy with tales from their Alaskan homestead.

Is capitalism still working, or is it due for an upgrade? In this must-watch episode, authors Seth Levine and Elizabeth McBride discuss insights from their book Capital Evolution, sharing what they learned from interviewing top CEOs, including Jamie Dimon, Dan Schulman (PayPal), Peter Stavros (KKR), and others who are helping to reshape the social contract of business. They explore: Why Jamie Dimon led 200 top CEOs to declare that companies should serve more than just shareholders. "If you ask Jamie Dimon, are you a capitalist? Because we asked him that, he said, I'm a rapacious capitalist." – Seth Levine Why the old model of shareholder primacy is failing How economic mobility has collapsed: "50 years ago, if you were born in the bottom 25th percentile of wealth, you had about a 25% chance of dying in the top 25th... Today, it's about 5%." Why ownership, not just wages, is key to the next phase of capitalism: "Ownership is a key to this new future that we see." How businesses, not just governments, must now lead on economic reform: "We believe in this current environment that businesses have the largest power and some responsibility to reshape the norms."

Progress comes through effort. Paul and Evan share an interview about how socialism is being marketed to people around the world as a cure for their problems. The problem is that when we look at socialist governments, they have not been good for the people they serve. Listen along to hear why capitalism can be a hard sell to people, but has so far proven to give the most opportunity to the most people. Paul shares that the way people get sold on bad investments is the same way people get sold on socialism through the belief that they can sidestep the work and get straight to the results.

FAN MAIL--We would love YOUR feedback--Send us a Text MessageNew York just elected a 34-year-old democratic socialist as mayor, and the city's political ground shifted underfoot. We unpack the upset—how small donors, social media savvy, and an affordability-first platform overcame long odds—and then stress test each promise against law, budgets, and history. From four-year rent freezes and free buses to universal childcare and a path to a $30 minimum wage, we ask the hard question: which ideas can survive America's legal constraints, market pressures, and political realities?We trace the century-old arc of socialist governance in America, from Milwaukee's well-run public housing and clean streets to Schenectady's fare cuts—and the recurring forces that blunted those movements: fusion-party pushback, capital flight, constitutional guardrails, policy poaching by major parties, and national headwinds. Along the way, we highlight how capitalism repeatedly course-corrected without revolution—trustbusting monopolies, creating deposit insurance after bank panics, and building safety nets that lowered elderly poverty—absorbing reforms while keeping markets dynamic.Then we bring it back to Gotham. Expect legal battles over rent and sanctuary measures, fiscal tests for big-ticket programs, and business responses ranging from adaptation to exit. Some proposals may be piloted, trimmed, or retooled; others could become durable parts of city life if they measurably improve affordability and mobility. The wager here is not ideology, but durability: can bold promises translate into workable policy without cracking the city's economic engine? Listen for a clear-eyed roadmap of risks, trade-offs, and the likely areas where New York may bend, adjust, and, ultimately, decide what sticks.Key Points from the Episode:• Who Zoran Mandani is and why he won• The affordability agenda and funding claims• Reactions from national figures and business leaders• Historical record of socialist mayors 1900–1960• The five forces that limited socialist experiments• Capitalism's pattern of correction and absorption• Legal, fiscal, and market tests facing New York• What policies might endure and what may fadeOther resources: Want to leave a review?

Christy Tennery-Spalding, activist and organizer, shares how growing up near Washington D.C. shaped her oppositional stance to power structures and led her to find a “political home” in San Francisco's activist community. She introduces the concept of informed consent in organizing—ensuring participants feel safe, informed, and empowered rather than treated as bodies in the street. Tennery-Spalding challenges the wellness industrial complex's version of self-care, revealing how she fell into the trap of “capitalist self-care”—overloading herself with yoga classes, meditation, and clean eating until she burned out from her own self-care routine. Drawing from her experience with severe scoliosis, depression, and PTSD, she advocates for anti-capitalist self-care that questions productivity culture and challenges the belief that our worth is tied to usefulness. She explores how childhood conditioning around pleasing others, performing, and being palatable shapes our relationship with rest, and why sometimes the most radical act of self-care is simply lying down and being intentionally “not useful.” Hosted on Acast.

There has been a lot of attention on the origins and rise of the ideas underlying neoliberalism. But too often, these idea-centered accounts obscure the real class dynamics that drive political change. On this episode of Confronting Capitalism, Vivek explains how neoliberal ideas overtook post-war Keynesianism and why those ideas took hold — not because of their appeal but because of the balance of class forces.
