	Education for the Whole Child Segment 1 \| Mainstream, public education in America today is failing in at least two regards: children aren't learning the fundamentals well enough, and "extracurricular" activities such as art are being excised due to budgetary problems or ideological ignorance. Children who go to public schools are in trouble, but for those parents who are involved enough and wise enough, alternatives exist. However, private schools can range in quality from parochial to pathetic. [^]

	Ending Life: What is Right and Wrong? Segment 1 \| We have all thought about by the Terry Schiavo case, the woman whose feeding tube was removed in late March. With an issue as monumental as taking one's life or ending the life of a medically-sustained person, how do you mix strong feelings with reasoned thought to come to know what you think is morally sound? How do you know you are right? Jason welcomes a distinguished scholar in bioethics and a philosopher who has published in this area to the show to shed some light on this hot topic. [^]

	Entrepreneurs: Past and Present Segment 1 \| Entrepreneurship is a combination of values such as creativity, dominance, passion, success, wealth, development, power, leadership, prestige, overcoming, etc. History is rife with examples and quotations of entrepreneurs and upstarts who fixed their eye upon a goal and didn't give up until they succeeded.

	Ethical Decision-Making Segment 1 \| Is ethical decision-making hard? How often do people do the right thing? How do we know what the right thing to do is? What kinds of things prevent us from always doing the right thing? How can philosophy help rather than hinder my understanding of what the right action in a situation is? What is an "ethical dilemma?" What do I do in an ethical dilemma? [^]

	Ethical Issues Surrounding Economic Policy Segment 1 \| Poverty, homelessness, lack of medical insurance coverage, and wage disparity are major problems for America. What ought each of us to do about them? What can we realistically do about them? What role should government be playing? Are there institutional and economic-policy reasons that so many of us are left out in the cold? Is this the kind of society we really want? Does our rising income disparity spell the end of the American dream for 95% of the people? Jason asks such questions of Rebecca Vilkomerson, Director for The California Partnership, a coalition of 60 organizations advocating for low-income families. [^]
