Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Full Show Podcast: 05 June 2026
Q: Ryan, how do you see Stoicism applying to leadership and handling pressure in the modern world?
Holiday discusses focusing on what you can control, cultivating self-discipline, and using philosophy as a practical guide to respond rather than react to external chaos.
Ryan Holiday: Best-selling author and voice of modern stoicism on the resurgence of the philosophy, live New Zealand event
Q: What do you think stoicism as a philosophy for life works as well in the modern world as it did in the ancient world?
Holiday explains that while the world has changed in surface ways, the core human concerns—uncertainty, the need to control what we can, and how we respond to events—are timeless, making Stoicism still highly relevant today.
Eric Crampton: NZ Initiative expert on whether we should pay blood donors
Q: How would compensation be structured and what changes to law might be required?
The potential model involves private centers setting up paid donation programs, with regulatory changes possibly in the Human Tissues Act to allow compensation for time rather than broad commercial payment, and leveraging observed efficiencies in other countries like the US and Canada.
Eric Crampton: NZ Initiative expert on whether we should pay blood donors
Q: So is it time to rethink the ethics and the economics of paying people for plasma?
The discussion frames the question around whether compensation could stabilize or reduce shortages by increasing supply and consistency, while considering ethical concerns about commodifying the body and the need for appropriate regulatory safeguards.
Anne Batley: New Zealand Cat Foundation on what could eradicate Auckland's growing rat problem
Q: What about the birds? Won't more cats threaten native birds in urban areas?
The guest notes that conservationists prefer cats to be kept inside at night to protect birds, but argues that in urban settings birds are often higher up and less at risk during nocturnal cat patrols.
