Treating human beings like cars is kinda strange when you stop to think about it. Just like when you buy a new car and have to register it with the government, you're supposed to register your new child with the government. And that... is crazy and a little sick. This week, Aria and Nikki talk about this, and the myth that it's something that is actually critical to do shortly after the birth.

Following the catastrophe that was losing an entire episode recorded with Richie Rich, Aria sits down and goes back over the information that was discussed in the Lost Episode--the greatest episode in the history of podcasts. Aria talks about the Crypto 6 case, the plea agreements, the motions to dismiss, her reluctant plea deal, and finally Ian's upcoming appeal. If you're curious about federal court and that process, this episode probably has information you're interested in.

Why does your employer provide your health insurance? And why does it cost you money instead of actually being a perk of employment? How do tax brackets factor into this? And why do we support the insurance industry when it is a game of calculated fraud where the only way for the company to be profitable is to violate its agreement with you? This and more as Aria sits down with Rich E. Rich for another fantastic episode of Free Talk Cast.

Some people are toxic. Even if the people themselves aren't toxic, your relationship with them can be. Some people just bring out the worst in each other. Some people aren't meant to be in each other's lives. Friends, family, lovers... If a relationship is toxic or abusive, it has to be put to an end. In this episode of Free Talk Cast, Aria and Nikki talk about toxic relationships, toxic family members, drawing boundaries, and ending relationships.

Why is cryptocurrency exploding right now? The answer may surprise you.
This episode is late because I thought my mixer died. When I finally got the chance today to dig out my replacement, I learned that the power supply actually died. That's great, because that's a much cheaper fix. Anyway, we apologize for the delay; there was a hardware failure.
We love you all!

In this followup to last week's episode, Nikki and Aria talk about the nuances of definition, and the importance of understanding things. We dive into the idea of the Mathematician's Answer, an answer or definition that is technically correct but completely useless under the circumstances. Finally, we talk about the importance of recognizing boundaries and not violating people's sacred spaces.

Join Aria and Nikki this week as we sit down to ask what could be a very important--or very pointless--question that a lot of people have discussed over the last few years: What is a woman?
The answers given may surprise you.
Isn't it also curious that no one is asking: What is a man?

What do you do when the world is coming to an end? Well, there's only one thing to do:
Panic.
And keep panicking. Don't stop until everything is better.

Controlling your emotions. Owning the self. Managing one's reactions, and therefore one's destiny. These things aren't easy. Sometimes we want to be angry, we want to be scared, we want to be upset. How can we combat these paradoxical desires and live rationally and responsibly, choosing forgiveness and love while owning our actions and behavior? This week, Aria and Nikki sit down to discuss these complex issues.
-
Aria & Nikki talk about the newly launched freeiannow.org, Ian's status in federal prison, and Ian's upcoming lengthy appeal process. Ian's facility is currently under lockdown, and inmates have no access to phones, email, or even visits.

A Federal Court has ordered the EPA to do something about the dangerous levels of fluoride that Americans are being exposed to. Aria and Nikki dig into the topic, the benefits of fluoridated water, and the hoped-for end to an experiment on the population.

Sorry for the huge delay! I've been getting murdered at work, but weekly episodes return this week, and we've already got another one recorded and ready to go! I lost the audio for this episode for a while, which turned out to be because I recorded it on the studio PC at Ian's studio, hence there being no trace of it on my own studio pc. Oh well. I wasn't too upset, because the quality is... not great. They were using webcams. I tried.

Aria & Nikki discuss widespread addiction to smartphones, the anxiety they are causing, and the possibility of just leaving one's phone at home.
-
Aria and Nikki talk about the difficulties and futility of trying to protect your data online.

Aria DiMezzo and Mark Edge talk about the state of politics in New Hampshire, running for office, the various ways that one can have liberty, and the many projects going on around the world right now to help people achieve the liberty they seek.
-
Aria and Nikki sit down to talk about the death of Jaime Diaz at Aria's former prison (and Ian's current prison), the importance of ending the drug war, and the importance of providing people with a safe means to do things that you may not necessarily want them to do. Teaching people "stop, drop, and roll" doesn't encourage them to catch on fire, teaching people to use condoms doesn't encourage them to have sex, and providing people with fentanyl test strips isn't going to turn them into heroin users.
-
Aria sits down to reflect on her time in federal prison, now that she's looking at all the letters she wrote her best friend while there, and then gets into turning negative experiences into positive ones. You aren't a victim until you choose to be; being a victim is a choice. You have the power to be the beneficiary, if you so choose.

Bonnie and Aria sit down to discuss cognitive dissonance in libertarianism, the prison industrial complex, and the failures of group punishment to be moral and to achieve the presumed goals

In this week's episode of Free Talk Cast, Nikki and Aria sit down to talk about Biden stepping down, and then immediately choose to talk about something much more interesting: scientists want to dump a bunch of lye into Cape Cod to help the ocean turn carbon dioxide into oxygen. Seems like an awful lot of work to avoid planting some fucking trees.
-
This week, Aria and Bonnie sit down to discuss some of the latest developments in the way that the state is clearly fucking with Aria, making it exceedingly difficult for her to change her name on her ID and get a New Hampshire license. This time, someone decided to inexplicably alter her name change certificate to say that Aria was born in Michigan instead of Mississippi, and there seems to be no plausible explanation for this change except that someone is trying to fuck with her. Plus, the Donald Trump assassination attempt, a little about Kamala Harris, and the importance of choosing love and forgiveness over hatred.
