In this episode, John and Lawrence respond to philosopher Peter Singer, for many the father of Effective Altruism, on the subject of antinatalism. In particular, they discuss if it is a harm to create sentient beings who will die prematurely (in this case, 'happy' chickens), and whether vegans and others looking to do good in the world should have children. Enjoy!
