The Shift with Doug McKenty

In this episode, host Doug McKenty takes a deep dive into the controversial Terrain Theory of disease with Dr. Andrew Kaufman. Though much of modern medicine is based on the notion that invading microorganisms are the root cause of disease, Dr. Kaufman questions the prevailing theory and posits environmental causes are the reason people get sick. If true, detoxification, and immune-boosting supplementation, should replace many prevalent treatment protocols which may reduce symptoms, but never achieves the homeostasis required to live a truly healthy life. He has recently produced two documentaries elucidating his position. In "Terrain: The Film" he painstakingly addresses the scientific foundations of germ theory, while "Hypocratic Hypocrisy" details a corrupt history of modern medicine allowing the propagation of treatments that may be profitable, but show little efficacy in actually curing disease.

Their reach extended into the royal families of Europe, and some speculate their power and wealth continue to manipulate world events in the modern age.

This episode features a conversation with openly genderqueer activist and blogger Nicky Reid. Her particular blend of left-populism provides a unique perspective that crosses the left/right divide and seeks to unify all political groups under the rubric of decentralization of power. The discussion includes a nuanced critique of identity politics that respects its goal of creating a more tolerant society, while criticizing its use of moral authority and its lack of real authenticity. Nicky's work exposes the mechanization of a political empire that oppresses equally, no matter one's sexual identity or skin color, while at the same time advocating for a free and tolerant society that respects all lifestyle choices.

In this episode, host Doug McKenty discusses the controversial substance, graphene oxide, with returning guest Captain Wardrobe. This conversation utilizes Wardrobe's July 2021 article, “Graphene… and the Coming Robotnik Brain", to take a deep dive into a decades-long endeavor by military technologists to develop an electronic system on a nanoscale that can be used to both collect and transmit information to organisms jacked into the network.

In this episode of The Shift, host Doug McKenty discusses the long history of cultural and social manipulations in favor of upper-class interests with author and activist Joe Atwill. Joe's first book, "Caesar's Messiah”, details the possibility that much of modern Christianity actually began as a form of Roman propaganda designed to neutralize Jewish messianic revolutionary movements. His later work describes how this penchant for social control has evolved into the modern-day through psychological operations influencing such major cultural events as the "archaic revival" of the 1960's. This conversation includes an overview of this long lineage of social control, applies it to current events, then posits critical thinking and Socratic dialogue as the path toward liberation.

This episode features a conversation with Jack Lloyd, the author of "A Definitive Guide to Libertarian Voluntaryism". Though the concept of a world without governments seems unattainable to most, and impractical to many, Jack describes a theory of society based on non-aggression that is not only possible, but may provide a vision of the future where humankind learns to live in accordance with the concept of empathic reciprocity. This system follows a two fold path based on consent ethics combined with a property rights theory that allows individuals to protect the fruits of their labor. Not only does this discussion outline the fundamental principles of the concept, but it also addresses many common criticisms.

In this episode, host Doug McKenty discusses the overwhelming evidence that Americans are inundated with powerful corporate propaganda with New York University professor Dr. Mark Crispin Miller. Dr. Miller began a decades-long journey after writing Fooled Again in 2004.

These experiences led him down the rabbit hole of uncovering mass disinformation campaigns on a variety of issues designed to mold the American mind in ways favorable to wealthy corporate owners, not the general body politic.

In this episode of The Shift, host Doug McKenty discusses how the military-industrial complex has been working for decades on dual-use technologies of population control with author Elana Freeland. Her latest book, Engineered Transhumanism, connects the dots between weather modification technologies and nanotech that together provide full-spectrum dominance of natural electromagnetic frequencies that affect natural phenomena on a planetary, as well as an individual level. Combined, these technologies provide mechanisms for control over both the macro and microenvironments and could result in an end to individual free will as we know it.
