Episode 259 - 2025-04-27 - You Get What You Give

In which Robert and Amy get metaphysical.  Do things, and things will happen.  True since the beginning of everything (on April 27, 4977 BC).  Still true today.  Karma?  Justice?  Yep.  What you put in, you get out of it.  If you push something hard enough, it will fall over.  Also, what to do about injustice.  Pepper seeds grow pepper plants.  How to leverage causality for fame & wealth.

Episode 258 - 2025-04-20 - The OTHER Seven Virtues!

In which Robert & Amy celebrate Easter by considering Ayn Rand's OTHER Seven Virtues ... and discuss the virtue and value of Honor.  It's Easter Day, and the Last Day Of Passover ... which means Spring is in Full Swing!  Also, it's Look-Alike Day (do you have a personal doppelganger?) ... and Happy Birthday, George Takei.

Episode 257 - 2025-04-13 - Serenity Now!

In which Robert & Amy find peace with the metaphysical ... and the man-made.  Wisdom from Ayn Rand's essay on the primacy of existence.  Current events, past events, and keeping your cool, even when one of your oxygen tanks explodes.  The great men & women who remind us that great men & women exist, then and now.  Also, the irreplaceable role, value, and power of great art.  Metaphysics & mindfulness, and peach cobbler ... Let's Stay Together!

Episode 256 - 2025-04-06 - The Fine Art Of Not Thinking About Things
