The Path of Socrates

Category: Clear Thinking. How to detect when something is “fishy”. Unfortunately, many people are so “trusting” that they don’t seem to be able to see when others are trying to deceive them. This can have consequences that are not only quite unpleasant, but even ultimately fatal, as is explained in this episode.

Last month, Tucker Carlson of Fox News actually came out and said that it could well be that the CIA was behind the assassination of President John F. Kennedy. Of course, many of us have known for decades that the killing was not merely the work of a “lone assassin” by the name of Lee Harvey Oswald. Could Carlson’s report on this topic be only the beginning of a series of “revelations” that will b...

Category: World Events WATCH THIS SHORT VIDEO!! Perhaps the most important you have ever seen, although it’s less than two minutes long...   www.dboltoncreations.com/Dr_Shoemaker_DARPA.MP4 One of my most important episodes: Now, evidence has surfaced that virtually proves that much of the "Covid narrative" has been a nefarious lie (to say the least). "The Path of Socrates", with David Earl Bo...

Category: Social Media Remember back when leftists were justifying the banning of Trump, anti-vax doctors, and many others by saying that “Twitter is a private company, so they don’t have to allow freedom of speech!”? Yet now, many of those same leftists are viciously attacking Elon Musk and criticizing his policies at Twitter, even though Musk is NOT banning them, but simply reinstating freedom o...

In this special Christmas episode, MichelAngelo talks to the Grinch himself (oh well, let’s just say it’s me, channeling as much of the Grinch’s world view as possible). An exceptional, light-hearted talk - though darker points do crop up: all the better to stimulate real thinking!

Category: Digital Music-making Warning! If you are not interested in making music digitally using a keyboard and your computer, this episode is NOT for you, for you will get bored very quickly! (Better to listen to one of my other episodes instead.) But for those of you who are interested in this topic, this special episode will give you some important info you will need to get started down a path...

Category: Our Justice System The fact is that some of the laws we have make little, if any, sense. A fine example of this can be found in the areas of illegal drugs, and prostitution. In this episode, I point out some of the inconsistencies in the law, and in people’s views in general.

Category: Personal Improvement We often let our personal feelings about others influence our acceptance or rejection of what they are actually saying. This is usually a mistake – one that can keep us from seeing the truth, as is explained in this episode, which belongs to the “personal improvement” category.

Though most everyone knows that China and Japan are not the same, many people in the West don’t know all that much about either country. In this episode, I speak with Brandon Ricks, a young American who lived for six years in China, and who has been residing in Japan for over a year now. Brandon tells of his experiences in China, and – a surprise, even for me – his Chinese wife then joins into thi...

Is Alex Jones correct in his opinions of what is really going on in America now? In this episode, MichelAngelo and I discuss Jones and his views, and analyze whether those views actually correspond to reality.

It was 59 years ago today (November 22, 2022) that the killing of an American president shocked the world. Somewhat incredibly, there are still some people around who believe in the “lone gunman” theory as regards the assassination of President John F. Kennedy. For those of us who don’t have the time to be professional researchers into this topic: is there enough evidence to suggest that the killi...

In the ten-year period before the “Covid” outbreak, approximately 30 million Americans came down with the “seasonal flu” every year. Yet in the one-year period after the Covid outbreak, there were in the U.S. a mere 1,800 cases of seasonal flu: well over 15.000 times FEWER cases of the flu! Has some miracle occurred, or does this incredible phenomenon have an explanation that is not only much more...

Though many people don’t yet realize it, we are, and have been, in a war for several years: but in this new type of warfare, the “battles” take place in cyberspace, in mass propaganda, and in the economic and “health” sectors. Nonetheless, the stakes are higher than ever – and neither side can afford to lose: a most dangerous situation! "The Path of Socrates", with David Earl Bolton David Bolton:...

As of now (November 12, 2022), many Republicans are frustrated because the anticipated “Red Tsunami” did not occur: Sure, the party of Lincoln did make some significant gains, but considering the state of the nation, any reasonable observer would have expected total landslide victories for the great majority of Republican candidates. Yet from a “30,000 feet” perspective, what is really happening?...

In the last couple of years, millions of people have been “banned” from Twitter, Facebook and Youtube; certain malicious Google algorithms see to it that certain “undesirable” information is suppressed. Many feel that we are on the threshold of – and have perhaps already entered into – a new age of totalitarianism. But is this really so? This episode sheds a closer light on the entirety of the pre...

Did you ever have the experience of thinking about someone you haven’t seen in a long time, only to have that person surprisingly give you a call soon thereafter? Or perhaps you have an inexplicable bout of depression, during which you for some reason think of a certain person you know who isn’t there, only to learn later that something very sad happened in the life of that person. Such are exampl...

We’ve often heard that “God loves you”. That is – hopefully! - true. But from a philosophical perspective, even such a simple idea raises questions: What is God? What is love? And just as significant: who am I?

We’ve all heard the expression “the buck stops here”. We use it to criticize, for example, presidents who make bad decisions. But is it the president who is always to blame? Could it be that many times, the blame should be placed on other people, even more than on the president, despite the fact that he has the final word?

In this episode, I talk about one of the weaknesses of capitalism: insider trading. Yet though it is illegal, should we assume that laws against it can ever be effective?

The other day, Democratic Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio Cortez received a most assuredly unwelcome “birthday present” when two quite vocal leftist progressives interrupted her speech to bombard her with biting, and aggressive  criticism of her pro-war voting. But was this really simply a spontaneous reaction by two democratic progressive voters? Listen to this episode, and ponder... "The Pa...

On October 11, 2022, former U.S: Congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard made a declaration that I feel is historic.

Having a clear mind is a goal we should all strive for, yet we should not fool ourselves into thinking that anyone could ever have a “totally clear mind”. In this episode, I discuss two types of people: those who reach their conclusions using sound reasoning and logic, and those do so by employing intuition, and even psychic ability. "The Path of Socrates", with David Earl Bolton David Bolton: My...

Let’s play a little game – a “thought experiment”. Suppose we put 10,000 people, all at the same age of 25, on a big island, giving them a house, furniture, medical care, and $100,000 to buy the necessities of daily life. After one, five, or ten, years, would they all be financially equal, as they were when the experiment started? If not: why not? And if financial equality does indeed disappear, i...

Somewhat surprisingly, many people have simply gotten used to the fact that to an ever greater extent, we are being monitored: by street cameras, organizations, the government… Should we accept this modern-day phenomenon as just “normal”, or should it give us serious cause for concern? This episode delves into this question... "The Path of Socrates", with David Earl Bolton (Click, or copy/paste th...

How often have we heard leftists hurling vile insults such as “homophobe! Xenophobe! Racist!” at those who disagree with them on certain points – even though the dissenters are not at all guilty of being bigots? This episode shows how extremists always try to silence their opposition by shouting unjustified insults instead of engaging in civil conversation and debate – no doubt because reason is h...
