Mike and Mitch start by discussing why some people let trivial things ruin their otherwise good day, Mike particularly providing some examples that he's observed. This transitions to the guys discussing the concept of bar regulars becoming territorial and/or continuing to patronize an establishment knowing they won't have a good time. This turns into a conversation about men being very irrational about their masculinity. The two go on to discuss the morality of purposely going out of your way to insult people for their personal interests and hobbies (Mike apparently has strong opinions about Iggy Azalea). They also discuss people who make critiques without having expertise in the field and/or not having a clue about what they are talking about. Somehow they end up transitioning to conversing about the "different" kids at the school and the results of trying to be friends with them, which naturally evolved into the two philosophers discussing when bullying is justified. After a brief discussion about conspiracy theories, they also discuss the burden of proof and the tendency of people to make irrational or false criticisms.
