Vaccines have become one of the most polarizing topics in public health, and frankly, for valid reasons. What we've witnessed over the past few years is an unprecedented breakdown in trust between medical institutions and the public - and that didn't happen in a vacuum.What is the truth about Vaccine Safety and Efficacy? Dr. Roger McFillin sits down with vaccine safety epidemiologist Allison Krug to expose the hidden forces shaping public health, from vaccine safety to the weaponization of fear. They dive deep into the failures of placebo-controlled trials, the truth about natural immunity vs. vaccine-induced immunity, and why good evidence is harder to find than you think. Allison shares what she learned working inside the pharmaceutical industry and reveals how mindset, belief systems, and disconnection from nature and spirituality are fueling today's chronic illness crisis. If you've ever questioned mainstream medicine or want to reclaim your health and autonomy, this conversation will change how you see the world.00:00 Introduction00:05:32 The Danger of Outsourcing Health to "Experts"00:20:45 Mindset, Pain, and the Illusion of Powerlessness00:42:49 Consciousness and the Healing Power Within01:05:32 Germ Theory, Genetics, and the Loss of Agency01:15:47 Awakening to Frequencies: A Spiritual Revolution01:22:23 Dark Spiritual Forces and the Battle for Consciousness01:31:27 How Public Schools Crush Creativity and Independence01:49:05 Medical Paradigm Flaws: What They're Not Telling You01:55:40 Spiritual Emptiness: The Hidden Cost of Modern Culture02:00:12 Radical Responsibility and the Return to Divine LoveAllision Krug WebsiteAllision Krug on XAllison Krug on Megyn Kelly COVID-19 vaccine boosters for young adults: a risk benefit assessment and ethical analysis of mandate policies at universities Dr. Roger McFillin / Radically Genuine WebsiteYouTube @RadicallyGenuineDr. Roger McFillin (@DrMcFillin) / XSubstack | Radically Genuine | Dr. Roger McFillinInstagram @radicallygenuineContact Radically GenuineConscious Clinician CollectivePLEASE SUPPORT OUR PARTNERS15% Off Pure Spectrum CBD (Code: RadicallyGenuine)10% off Lovetuner click here
Erica Campbell walked away from corporate life, took a hard left from the British Embassy, and found her calling writing checks for families nobody else sees. As Executive Director of Pinky Swear Foundation, she doesn't waste time on fluff. Her team pays rent, fills gas tanks, and gives sick kids' parents the one thing they don't have—time. Then, breast cancer hit her. She became the patient. Wrote a book about it. Didn't sugarcoat a damn thing. We talk about parking fees, grief, nonprofit burnout, and how the hell you decide which families get help and which don't. Also: AOL handles, John Hughes, and letters from strangers that make you cry. Erica is part Punky Brewster, part Rosie the Robot, and part Lisa Simpson—with just enough GenX Long Island sarcasm to make it all land. This one sticks.RELATED LINKSPinky Swear FoundationThe Mastectomy I Always Wanted (Book)Erica on LinkedInThink & Link: Erica Campbell“Like the Tale of a Starfish” - Blog Post“Cancer Diagnosis, Messy Life, Financial Support” - Blog PostFEEDBACKLike this episode?

Carol Harvey's powerful journey from experienced nurse to breast cancer survivor offers a unique dual perspective that changes everything.Carol shares her unexpected triple-negative breast cancer diagnosis in September 2020 during the height of COVID restrictions when family couldn't accompany her to treatments. With 35 years of nursing experience and a role teaching future nurses at Liberty University, Carol brought professional knowledge to her patient experience that provided both advantages and surprising challenges.Her decision to join a clinical trial stands as perhaps the most fascinating aspect of this conversation. Despite her medical background, Carol experienced the vulnerability all patients feel when considering experimental treatments. The outcome? Extraordinary monitoring that included multiple echocardiograms, rapid tumor response, and a comprehensive team approach that left her feeling exceptionally well-cared for. "If I were to go through the whole thing again, I would jump into a clinical trial again, 100%," she reflects.Through chemotherapy, surgery, radiation, and even cognitive therapy for "chemo brain," Carol's journey spans numerous departments within Centra Health. Now three years post-treatment with regular follow-ups, she finds herself transformed. "I am such a better person on this side of cancer than I was beforehand," she reveals, describing a deeper faith, greater empathy, and profound perspective shift that turns even "bad hair days" into moments of gratitude. Her powerful closing message resonates for anyone facing difficult circumstances: "I can do hard things." Listen now to experience this remarkable story of professional insight meeting personal transformation.For more content from Centra Health check us out on the following channels.YouTubeFacebookInstagramTwitter
Expanding access to clinical trials in community oncology settings is essential to improving diversity, equity, and inclusion in cancer research. In this episode, CANCER BUZZ speaks with clinical research coordinator, Oluwakemi “Kemi” Oladipupo, MSHS, MPH, BSN, RN, CCRP, whose cancer center recently participated in a foundational oncology clinical trials course, developed by ACCC and the Association of Clinical Research Professionals (ACRP) to help cancer programs expand availability of trials to traditionally underserved communities. Oladipupo shares how this training prepared their center for the challenges of a growing research program, the progress they've made, and the pivotal role of clinical research coordinators in expanding research programs and improving patient access to clinical trials. Oluwakemi “Kemi” Oladipupo, MSHS, MPH, BSN, RN, CCRP Clinical Research Coordinator Touro-Cancer Center New Orleans, LA “We know that diversity is a big point, not only as per new FDA guidance, but [to] ensure that every participant is given an equal opportunity to hear about the study. [Our] approach is not to target a certain group of individuals. Really the approach is to target any individual that looks potentially eligible.” - Oluwakemi “Kemi” Oladipupo Resources: Community Oncology Can Close the Gap in Cancer Research Increasing Clinical Trial Accrual Through the Implementation of a Clinical Trials Navigator The Role of the Clinical Trials Navigator — [MINI PODCAST] EP 129 Human-Centered Design: A Possible Solution to Rural Clinical Trial Enrollment

Allyson with a Y. Ocean with two Ls. And zero chill when it comes to changing the face of cancer care. Dr. Allyson Ocean has been quietly—loudly—at the center of every major cancer breakthrough, nonprofit board, and science-backed gut punch you didn't know you needed to hear. In this episode, she joins me in-studio for a conversation two decades in the making. We talk twin life, genetics, mitochondrial disease, and why she skipped the Doublemint Twins commercial but still ended up as one of the most recognizable forces in oncology. We cover her nonprofit hits, from Michael's Mission to Let's Win Pancreatic Cancer to launching the American Jewish Medical Association—yes, that's a thing now. We get personal about compassion in medicine, burnout, bad food science, and microplastics in your blood. She also drops the kind of wisdom only someone with her résumé and sarcasm can. It's raw. It's real. It's the kind of conversation we should've had 20 years ago—but better late than never.RELATED LINKS:– Dr. Allyson Ocean on LinkedIn– Let's Win Pancreatic Cancer– NovoCure Leadership Page– Michael's Mission– American Jewish Medical Association– The POLG Foundation– Cancer Buddy App (Bone Marrow and Cancer Foundation)– Dr. Ocean at OncLiveFEEDBACK:Like this episode?

Sponsored by Invivyd, Inc.Nobody wants to hear about COVID-19 anymore. Especially not cancer patients. But if you've got a suppressed immune system thanks to chemo, radiation, stem cell transplants—or any of the other alphabet soup in your chart—then no, it's not over. It never was. While everyone else is getting sweaty at music festivals, you're still dodging a virus that could knock you flat.In this episode, Matthew Zachary and Matt Toresco say the quiet part out loud: many immunocompromised people may not even know they have options beyond vaccines. Why? Because the system doesn't bother to tell them. So we're doing it instead. We teamed up with Invivyd to help get the word out about tools other than vaccines that can help prevent COVID-19. We break down the why, the what, and the WTF of COVID-19 risk for cancer patients and why every oncologist should be talking about this.No fear-mongering. No sugarcoating. Just two guys with mics who've been through it and want to make sure you don't get blindsided. It's fast, funny, and furious—with actual facts. You've got more power than you think. Time to use it.RELATED LINKSExpand Their OptionsInvivydMatt Toresco on LinkedInOut of Patients podcastFEEDBACKLike this episode? Rate and review Out of Patients on your favorite podcast platform.

EPISODE DESCRIPTIONLisa Shufro is the storyteller's storyteller. A musician turned innovation strategist, TEDMed curator, and unapologetic truth-teller, Lisa doesn't just craft narratives—she engineers constellations out of chaos. We go way back to the early TEDMed days, where she taught doctors, scientists, and technocrats how not to bore an audience to death. In this episode, we talk about how storytelling in healthcare has been weaponized, misunderstood, misused, and still holds the power to change lives—if done right. Lisa challenges the idea that storytelling should be persuasive and instead argues it should be connective. We get into AI, the myth of objectivity, musical scars, Richard Simmons, the Vegas healthcare experiment, and the real reason your startup pitch is still trash. If you've ever been told to “just tell your story,” this episode is the permission slip to do it your way. With a bow, not a violin.RELATED LINKSLisa Shufro's WebsiteLinkedInSuper Curious ArchiveEight Principles for Storytelling in InnovationStoryCorps InterviewCoursera Instructor ProfileWhatMatters ProjectFEEDBACKLike this episode?

On October 29-30, 2024, the ACCC Community Oncology Research Institute (ACORI) hosted the Community Oncology Inclusive Clinical Trial Design Summit in Arlington, VA. The event brought together stakeholders including academic and community cancer center practitioners and researchers, advocacy organizations, government agencies, and industry partners to discuss strategies to increase patient access to clinical trials in the community setting. Five priority areas were identified that characterize actionable strategies to promote fair and accessible clinical trial design that is representative of all patients with cancer: strengthening the clinical trial workforce, optimizing trial design, engaging communities outside of clinical trial interactions, decentralizing clinical trials, and leveraging artificial intelligence/digital health tools for increased access and efficiency. ACCC is committed to providing support in these priority areas to increase representative participation and opportunities in clinical trials for oncology patients across the US. In this episode of CANCER BUZZ, Kimberly Demirhan, MBA, BSN, RN, assistant director of education programs at ACCC, discusses the 5 priority areas identified at the ACORI Summit and ways to transform how we think about access to trials, especially leveraging AI and digital tools to do so. “We looked at optimizing trial design to reflect real world patient populations ... assessing eligibility criteria to make it more reflective of the patient populations that we see out in the community.” “[We suggest] simplifying protocols so we're not accidentally eliminating patients [due to] benign factors, and then really engaging our community providers early on in the design process.” “It's a really important time to be addressing [AI] and looking at the opportunities we have to transform the way we think about clinical trials, how we think about the delivery and access to them.” – Kimberly Demirhan Kimberly Demirhan, MBA, BSN, RN Assistant Director, Education Programs Association of Cancer Care Centers Resources: 2024 ACORI Summit Just ASK: Increasing Diversity in Cancer Clinical Research Bringing Cancer Research to the Community: Strategic Approaches to Representative Oncology Clinical Trial Design
