Philosophical Pondering with Freedomain Radio
By Laurette Lynn on Feb 26, 2012 with Comments 2
I am especially excited to bring you this 2 part, all-in-one episode of UMRadio because in it, I had the most wonderful time talking with author, philosopher and fellow podcast host, Stefan Molyneux, of Freedomain Radio.
Recording for both Freedomain and UMRadio, Stefan and I discussed school, education, parenting, society and… yes… for those of you waiting with baited breath, wondering whether I would bring up the A word with Mr. Libertarian Anarchy himself – yes, we talked about politics and the anarchist movement. It may not be what you think though so give it a listen! And if you are not one of the cross-over listeners and you haven’t a clue what I’m talking about – give it a listen anyway! I guarantee you will find nourishing food for thought, and interesting points on which to ponder while you listen in on our discussion.
In part one, I ask Stefan a few questions about his quest, his work and his thoughts on education, parenting and politics.
In part two, we pick up where we left off and then the tables turn. I have to say, that of all the interviews I have done in the last couple of years (and technically this was not really an interview as much as a discussion) I have never been asked the kind of introspective questions that Mr. Molyneux asked and while I was surprised by the nature of the questioning, when it was said and done I was both honored and delighted!
I won’t give too much away, you’ll have to listen… but suffice it to say that you will learn more about Laurette Lynn than you may have wanted to know ;P I think I may have learned a bit more about myself! Do I really need to mention that this officially bumps itself into the top 3 of my favorite conversations? (well there I mentioned it anyway). I look forward to speaking with Stefan again soon to learn, ponder, philosophize and getting into more nitty-gritty on other relevant topics.
If you prefer the video version, they are available below. I do not typically do video (dislike looking at my self I guess, I don’t know) but because Stefan usually publishes his show with video, I cooperated.
It’s exactly the same as the audio, only you get some visual too, if you like that sorta thing.

*It’s worth noting that while this is published as a single episode, parts one and two were recorded separately, about a week apart. I’m not entirely sure why that is important, but it seems like it’s something I should mention – so there it is!

In watching all the discussion about voting etc. I was hoping that you and Stefan would do a show together. This one was great.
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it. I cannot say I’m completely convinced… but I definitely have a more clear understanding of the anarchist philosophy and thoroughly enjoyed the discussion!
I am looking forward to recording again with him soon!
