Enjoy this episode? Please share it with at least ONE friend who you think needs to hear it! In this episode, we dive deep into the history and controversies surrounding HIV/AIDS with filmmaker and researcher Michael Wallach. Michael is the director of the documentary series The Viral Delusion, which critically examines the narratives surrounding viruses and challenges conventional virology. Episode Highlights: Re-examining the Foundation: Michael discusses the importance of questioning the foundational assumptions of virology rather than just critiquing the built-up narratives around viruses like HIV and COVID-19. Journey to Terrain Theory: He shares the path that led him to explore terrain theory, a concept that shifts the focus from viruses as the cause of illness to the overall environment and health of the body. Creating The Viral Delusion: Learn about Michael's process in assembling the documentary series, including the influences from the AIDS dissidence movement and his thoughts on the COVID-19 response and historical vaccine narratives. HIV/AIDS Narrative: Michael dives into the controversial claim that HIV does not cause AIDS, presenting arguments and insights from leading thinkers who have challenged the mainstream story. The Reality of AZT: The conversation explores the history of AZT, a drug once marketed as the primary treatment for HIV/AIDS, and how it was pushed despite its toxic effects. Michael highlights the existence of alternative treatments that were overshadowed by AZT. Unreleased Insights: Michael shares additional findings and insights that didn't make it into his documentary, providing a more complete picture of the perspectives on HIV/AIDS. The Expanding Symptom Lists: Discussion around how the symptoms associated with various so-called viruses continue to grow, raising questions about the criteria used for diagnosis and classifications in virology. About Michael Wallach: Michael Wallach is the director of the acclaimed five-part documentary series, The Viral Delusion, which can be watched at theviraldelusion.com. Described as “groundbreaking” and “immensely important” by leading medical voices like Tom Cowan, Dr. John Bevan-Smith, and Dr. Sam Bailey, the series challenges long-standing assumptions about viruses. Michael is a husband, father, screenwriter, and holds degrees in Philosophy from Cornell and an MA from Columbia University.

In 2002, accomplished SUPREME creative director Brendon Babenzien took his first swing at entrepreneurship and launched NOAH, a menswear brand born at the intersection of nautical living and skate culture. However, despite critical acclaim and downtown cool, the brand barely made it a few seasons before Brendon was forced to put NOAH on the backburner, and resume his role at Supreme. After a decade at the house James Jebbia built, in which he helped take SUPREME from a skate shop in soho to a global brand, Brendon decided it was time to revisit NOAH, and with the help of then new wife Estelle Bailey-Babenzien, he relaunched the brand in 2015 to industry fanfare.In the 8 years since, NOAH has grown slowly and steadily while maintaining the core philosophical commitments that animate Brendon and Estelle. NOAH is a beacon of hope in menswear and fashion, exalting virtuous values like sustainability, quality over quantity, and forward-leaning but timeless designs.On this week's episode of All Angles, we talk to founders Brendon and Estelle, as well as Brand Energy Director Johnny Knapp, to hear the full story of NOAH, and find out how the little shop on the corner of Mulberry street in lower Manhattan became an industry thought leader and global brand.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
