Live Questions: 

• 1:03:02 Do you think people should try to be careful when dealing with other people's personal tastes? I guess the nature of the relationship between the people involved matters here; teasing between close friends might be fine?
• 1:04:41 Not the western gaming industry, unfortunately, apearet from some small indei developers. However, gamers by and large to their credit are anti woke thougths on why?
• 1:06:17 Until it stops being woke, the US is the evil Empier, gets back to the Ragen Era and get rid of the radical egalitarian progressivismfirst, then it won't be an evil.
• 1:08:46 Do you think the protagonist in the movie Whiplash was largely second handed and altruistic? Placing the approval of the abusive teacher above himself and his own happiness?
• 1:14:08 Hello Yaron, What are your thoughts on living in Portugal?
• 1:15:45 Or one can think that he does so for selfish purposes. He wants to be great, and he knows the abusive teacher will help him get there?
• 1:16:06 We all should have been protesting, carrying pictures of Mohammed, but there wouldn't have been any police protection.
• 1:17:58 I never liked San Francisco. Very cold, unfriendly lefties, filth everywhere.

• 1:21:02 Ayn Rand was pro train, so am I thougth for mass market transport I prefer planes and private transport. Rail should be for freight and senice tourism's until we get planes large enough for freight.
• 1:23:45 Do you know anything about the privatization of public transportation in the UK back in the 1980s and why it failed?
• 1:24:42 The podcast guy from Porto made a short Insta video about you and has 300k+ views. You said Portugal is poor compared to the US and people went nuts 😂 1:25:43 What is the likelihood that we will see flying cars anytime soon? Will regulations make them impossible? I assume we have the technology? I'd love to have one!
• 1:26:34 Greetings from Tara Smith’s symposium in NYC. She says hi.
• 1:26:49 I remember you were disappointed when Bernstein interviewed with Grossman. Does the same hold for Amesh interviewing Tracinski?
• 1:27:28 Sorry about the typos. Did you enjoy Brisbane I love the old neoclassical sandstone buildings. Thougths on slow luxry trains for senice tourism.
