Now let's dive in! On This Week's Feedback Friday, We Discuss: Your friend is legally chained to a life of debt for killing one person and disabling another when he fell asleep behind the wheel in his youth. While everyone agrees he should be held accountable, it seems cruel and unusual that his only hope for relief is death. Is there an ethical way to ease his burden? [Thanks to bankruptcy attorney Erin Hoskins for helping us with this one!] On your big wedding day, how should you navigate the friction that's liable to happen between your trans brother, the other two members of his throuple, and your conservative family who doesn't get (or wants to get) how any of this works? How do you tell your MS-diagnosed and newly unemployed roommate and his ever-present (but non-rent-paying) girlfriend to either find a new place, move back home, or start contributing more to household cleaning and maintenance? Should you share unsupervised custody with your toxic, out-of-control, cheating ex who has exhibited countless episodes of poor judgment and domestic violence with the woman he left you for? Or should you trust your instincts and keep things the way they are?

A friend you've known for years killed her baby under the influence of a disorder called postpartum psychosis. The media is having a field day reporting her as a murderous monster, but why isn't it taking the opportunity to raise awareness of this condition so others can avoid repeating the nightmare she and her family are experiencing? You're torn between the desire to maintain the happiness you have with your current partner and the longing for love with someone else who seems unattainable. How can you reconcile these conflicting emotions without hurting anyone? Is there truth to the idea that your teen niece's father is "the kind of person" who might sexually assault her, or is your conspiracy-minded sister just paranoid about her ex having visitation rights?

How can you best make the case for a medical exception to maintain a win/win status quo? [Thanks to HR professional Joanna Tate for helping us with this one!] Your borderline personality disorder-suffering stepdaughter's enabling father — your partner — has made it clear he'll always prioritize her needs over yours. Unfortunately, he doesn't want to put in the work to get her the treatment she needs to become someone you feel safe around — or have around your baby. What's your best move?  A colleague you once considered creatively combustive has become, at the helm, a toxic and tiresome lodestone to your organization.

Why is relying on Emergency Medical Services (EMS) liable to send your bank balance to the morgue? Michael Regilio joins us on Skeptical Sunday to find out!  On This Week's Skeptical Sunday, We Discuss: Unlike police and fire departments, emergency medical services (EMS) are not deemed essential across most of the US — which means they're often underfunded and struggling to provide adequate care. Insurance policies commonly omit coverage for EMS-provided ambulance rides, making them cost-prohibitive for the people who often need them the most. Even the EMTs who staff EMS outfits are underpaid and can't usually afford to make use of them without going into the red. Who profits from the status quo of the broken EMS system, and why is it so hard to enact the reforms necessary to have providers declared essential? What can we do to educate and advocate for the overhauls necessary to make EMS viable for everyone? Connect with Jordan on Twitter, Instagram, and YouTube.

Is polite persuasion impossible among the presently polarized populace? Mindstuck: Mastering the Art of Changing Minds author Michael McQueen has answers! What We Discuss with Michael McQueen: Despite technological advances that have changed how we communicate, the psychology that dictates our persuasion, decision-making, and thinking remains the same. The effects of rationalizing our existing beliefs and the power of our expectations and perceptions. The importance of not defining ourselves by our opinions. Practical persuasion techniques such as priming and the power of sequence, as well as the effectiveness — and associated dangers — of using fear as a persuasive tool.

Terrible analysis. You guys laugh at the idea that there's any problems or dangers associated with Marijuana use, cite a bunch of old studies, which are now obsolete and disproven. And then you downplay the dangers and cost. If anyone wants a real analysis, read "Parents tell your children" by Alex Berenson.

Question I was asking myself. How does the 71 Mio $ punishment work? Do you get to buy food and pay rent from your salary and the rest goes to the victims? Or is all of it going directly to the victims and you basically have to be homeless and die from starvation as you are not allowed to keep money you earn ? If it was version 1 it would feel like it's fair enough. The victims have to suffer for the rest of their life's and the guy who fell asleep alsobut at least he can walk and is healthy.

I'm a long time listener of Jordan and the team. They've truly helped me become a better, more critical thinker. Most of the books I read are off the back of interviews on this show. Recently, I've been listening to Feedback Friday with my teenaged kids and I've taken to pausing the show after hearing the letter to ask them what they think the advice will be, getting them to reflect on what they would do or advise friends to do in their situation. Huge thanks to the team for all you do!!

can we treat it like pilots? when there's a crash there's going to be questions but more importantly when there's a near crash there are questions and the pilot is able to make extra training and adjustments in her practice without repercussion

during COVID at a nursing home we were working in a basically experimental lab We did not have enough negative pressure rooms and we were wearing worn out scrubs and over and over and overused n95s than k and 95.. I have a lot of sympathy for individuals who put themselves at risk with production requirements at risk of dismissal or competition with others who are faster. I was one of the only ones who would volunteer The order of putting on PPE is crucial saves lived.

Really enjoyed the Coltitz episode Jordan thankyou. So interesting, I love history but more than that, I love learning about people and how we behave in these situations. I'm reading Edith Eger at the moment learning about concentration camp survival so this POW episode was timely for me.

Jordan will you do a show on the insane anti Semitism that has broken out all over the world and particularly in the college campuses? Would you consider interviewing Douglas Murray or Alan Dershowitz?

the October attack was an act of terrorism and an act of war meant to provoke a war. I don't see how a two-state "solution " would work out any better.

Everyone understands that the worst part of WAR is the unavoidable collateral suffering if men, women and their children. But their was nothing "collateral " or unavoidable about the slaughter of Israelis on October 7.

I love the fact that Jordan is willing to go back over something he may have been misinformed on. This makes him all the more credible.

Funny enough I told my daughter (9years) and my wife about this and about plastic bags being better for the environment. daughter: ...Dad you got it all backwards. wife: stop telling her those things . shows how unpopular a different stance is in this topic
