00:00 Intro02:05 Freezing Weather03:56 Language & Stanford20:42 Fun & Stanford26:00 Microsoft & AntitrustLive Questions:33:35 I love your line from your last rules for life show about "waiting for happiness to show up". So many people are waiting for a break instead of taking a chance. I would turn that segment into a short clip! Likely to go viral34:16 It would be supercool if you debated Destiny(Steven Bonnell). He generally holds progressive, pro-establishment views and is intellectually honest imo. Ayn Rand used to be a big influence on him and still is to some extent.36:59 Could I pay to get an objective review of a short fictional paper of mine? Would that be possible through direct message on Twitter or something similar?38:18 "Waiting for the rainbow's end to send itself your way." Neil Peart38:46 What differentiates being "certain" from being "absolute'? Or "Absolutely sure"? Why not say "possible" or "probable" instead of "certain"?39:53 Why do intellectuals not take the law of identity seriously? Since causality is just the law of identity applied to action.40:58 Do you generally prefer to go to museums alone or with others?41:57 What do you think of Pierre Polievre? He's a big Milton Friedman fan, I just saw him on Jordan Peterson, and it looks like he has a real shot at beating Justin Trudeau.43:47 I made it a point to make a positive comment yesterday whenever i heard relatives make a negative or complaining topic during Christmas get togethers. Never realized how much people bond over negativity until I started paging closer attention45:29 Thank you for your consistency. I've been able to get much further in my endeavours and have gained much needed confidence because of your objective judgment of things. Thank you!45:47 Attempting to explain basics of Objectivism to individuals, everyone cannot over come subjectivism and grasp the primacy of existence. I think there needs to be an easier way to get people to understand the philosophy.46:48 OutroShow is Sponsored by: https://www.expressvpn.com/yaron and https://www.fountainheadcasts.comJoin this channel to get access to perks:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCabMx-URCjr2toe9wOE3Y-Q/joinLike what you hear?
