After my mom sent the following message: "We are all the product by which we are raised or the environment that we grew up in. No excuse, just fact. So tell me why r u so upset & how did I hurt u? I would like to know." I sent this e-mail to my mom: I don’t know what occurred in your...

Hey, everyone. :] I've been a listener of FDR for about a year now, and recently I've decided to move from New York to Oregon in the hopes of transforming my lifestyle from city living into a calmer, cleaner atmosphere. If anyone lives on the West Coast, I would love to meetup once I move out...

Hi everyone, My name is Oli and I have been listening to FDR for a couple of years, I hardly ever write anything on the forum so I guess I'm more of a lurker in that regard. However since there are so many cool people here, many of which run their own business as far as I understand, I thought somebody...

Howdy everyone. I am Alex Ryan, a voluntaryist and a big fan of Stef and Freedomain Radio. I am of the rather unorthodox opinion that the root cause of tyranny is the choice to respond to the impulse of fear with coercion and that the way to overcome this root cause is to consciously seek to change this...
