In the year 2019, we're seeing more and more discussions about sex robots, the possibilities and implications regarding Artificial Intelligence designed for the bedroom (or dungeon, etc), and the cultural attitudes about these synthetic sexual companions. Seth Andrews takes listener calls, shares an email from an actual sex doll owner, and caps the broadcast by speaking with Dr. Marty Klein, a world-renowned expert on sexuality.

In this crazy world, how often has a passionate desire for justice caused us to oversimplify complex problems, ignore details that don't validate us, and vilify all who dare to disagree?

And is it even possible to have a reasonable conversation about this in the Era Of Online Outrage? Psychologist Dr. Valerie Tarico joins Seth Andrews for just such a conversation. Dr. Tarico's article "The Righteous & The Woke:" https://valerietarico.com/2019/01/24/the-righteousness-and-the-woke-why-evangelicals-and-social-justice-warriors-trigger-me-in-the-same-way Support our sponsor: http://www.blinkist.com/seth
