Robert and David discuss Dave Chapelle's special "The Closer". They have many deep questions related to empathy and the crisis of "not listening" today. Read Dahlia Belle's response to the special.

We then reflect on these questions and more, designed to try to grow our self knowledge and ability to empathize with others. Starting at 35:15.

Is it possible to empathize with someone who is criticizing you?

How do you build curiosity about people who are different from you?

Do you have negative associations from earlier in your life, are those fears reasonable?

Who helped you with your successes in life?

Who do you surround yourself with, do you always agree?

Do you actively look for information to challenge your worldviewer?

Do you understand your own values?

Are you trying to be mature, or are you trying to win?

Do you try to cultivate love for the human race? Why or why not?
