Joining Vicki on the show today, are investigative reporters Jessica McBride and Jim Piwowarczyk, from Wisconsin Right Now, who have the scoop on an alleged massive marijuana growing operation in Franklin and on the equally massive backlog of cases in the Milwaukee County Criminal Court system. Then Marc Morano, founder of ClimateDepot.com, talks about the UN's "Our Common Agenda." Dr. Jay Richards, co-author of "The Price of Panic: How the Tyranny of Experts Turned a Pandemic Into a Catastrophe," joins to talk children, COVID, masks, media and panic. President of the MacIver Institute, Brett Healy, explains the difference between the number of ICU COVID-19 patients and the number of staffed ICU beds.

Today on “Catholic Drive Time,” Open Line, call in and tell your 9/11 stories PLUS Dr. Jay W. Richards on his book "The Price of Panic: How the Tyranny of Experts Turned a Pandemic into a Catastrophe" From the back of the book: The human cost of the emergency response to COVID-19 has far outweighed the benefits. That's the sobering verdict of a trio of scholars—a biologist, a statistician, and a philosopher— in this comprehensive assessment of the worst panic-induced disaster in history. As the media fanned the flames of panic, government officials and a new elite of scientific experts ignored the established protocols for mitigating a dangerous disease. Instead, they shut down the world economy, closed every school, confined citizens to their homes, and threatened to enforce a regime of extreme social distancing indefinitely. And the American public—amazingly enough—complied without protest. Modestly but relentlessly focused on what we know and don't know about the coronavirus, Douglas Axe, William M. Briggs, and Jay W. Richards demonstrate in this eye-opening study what real experts can contribute when a pandemic strikes. In the early spring of 2020, the panic of government officials, the hysteria of the media, and the hubris of suddenly powerful scientists produced a worldwide calamity. The Price of Panic is the essential book for understanding what happened and how to avoid repeating our deadly mistakes First hour: news, saint of the day, Gospel of the Day, Second Hour: breaking news, saint of the day, Gospel, Plus New Round of the Catholic trivia game show Fear and Trembling!!!

Catholic circles, especially online, have seen significant division and anger over the COVID-19 vaccines. The majority position is essentially “The Church says taking the vaccine is OK”—“Rome has spoken”—while a loud minority insists that no circumstances can ever justify using vaccines derived from aborted fetal cell lines. Neither side accurately represents the Church's guidance on the matter, especially her most authoritative statement, Dignitas Personae (2008), which says that only grave reasons may allow taking such vaccines, and that those who do so have a special obligation to protest the use of abortion and aborted fetal cells in its production. It also says that refusing out of conscience to take such a vaccine is not only allowed, but can be praiseworthy. This discussion with Michael Pakaluk and Jay Richards, two signers of the statement “To Awaken Conscience”, avoids undue rigorism about cooperation with evil, but also avoids a permissive legalism that says, inaccurately, that the Church says it's allowed under any circumstances and therefore there is no reason of conscience to refuse the vaccine. Instead of dictating to or dulling conscience, it assists conscience by clarifying a number of issues related to the production and use of vaccines derived from aborted fetal cell lines. We do so by consulting Dignitas Personae as well as examining the moral issues with the actual production of the vaccines. While the liceity of vaccine production and the liceity of using the end product are two distinct issues, the latter decision is clarified when we know precisely what we are remotely cooperating with (not so much the original abortion, but an ongoing series of outrages by research scientists continuing to use aborted fetal cells). We also distinguish between the moral principles provided by the Church and the prudential judgments about public and personal health which lie outside the Church's competence. We also address various other statements that have been made, such as the one by Archbishop Schneider, Bishop Strickland and other bishops; and the statement by the Ethics & Public Policy Center.

It is time for us to take better care of our health. We need to eat healthier and live better to prolong our lives and being locked up is not the answer. Suicides rates are at an all-time high because of the lockdowns. Peoples mental and physical health are suffering. With a virus that has a 0.06% fatality rate it is time to stop living in fear and start looking at real solutions to issues of health and wellness.

DR JAY RICHARDS & COVID, LOCKDOWNS & CHINA. PETER KURTI & CANCEL CULTURE. International experts investigating the origins of Covid-19 have all but dismissed a theory that the virus came from a laboratory in China. It would seem that the virus did not come from a lab in wuhan, that the military were not involved, that WHO is hugely influenced by China and that pigs can fly. Government leaders and public health officials have not provided credible justification for their draconian restrictions on businesses and individuals during the Covid-19 pandemic. In fact, looking at what's been happening in places such as California, New York and Washington, and throughout Australia, it appears Government actions have more to do with politics than science. The lack of transparency and the narrow focus of media on Covid-19 infections has increased public fear and allowed governments the greatest latitude in destroying thousands of small businesses and lives, and taking away individual freedoms. The headline statistics in the US and in other countries have been alarming but do we expect to see a downturn in infections soon – and not just because of the vaccine. We're joined by Dr Jay Richards, a Research Assistant Professor in the Busch School of Business at The Catholic University of America, author of many books including New York Times bestsellers. His most recent book written with Professors William Briggs, and Douglas Axe, The Price of Panic: How the Tyranny of Experts Turned a Pandemic Into a Catastrophe – is a worthwhile read. Cancel Culture is a growing, malignant disease that will remove our valued traditions and sow growing dissent. In Australia, views that are at odds with progressive or woke causes are silenced. Demands for censorship of the Politically Incorrect are coming from senior politicians and representatives of the left, academe, mainstream media and a host of organisations, many of whom are active in promoting disinformation and division. Deconstruction of history, re-education of children and the masses to accept radical theories of race and gender equality, Big Tech and State censorship and divided, unhappy communities should be rejected. In the United States, radical race-based and social justice and criminal “reforms” are being imposed, along with threats from the new administration to hunt down supporters of the previous Administration and censor “disinformation” via a new Federal Agency. Collusive and extensive censorship by Big Tech and mainstream media, and social media manipulation go unhindered. Violence and Crime are spiraling out of control in US cities that have long been governed by Democrats. Is this “only in America” and why aren't Australian politicians and community leaders engaging more actively in the Cultural “Wars” and protecting Australian traditions, free speech and individual liberties? We catch up with Peter Kurti, Director of Culture, Prosperity & Civil Society program at The Centre for Independent Studies. ASIA PACIFIC TODAY, February 10, 2021
Today Dr Jay Richards joins us to discuss PCR testing and One Nation's Senator Malcolm Roberts says Australia Day is a celebration of our freedom. Dr Jay Richards, a Research Assistant Professor in the Busch School of Business at The Catholic University of America, and author of The Price of Panic? How The Tyranny of Experts Turned a Pandemic into a Catastrophe. The World Health Organization issued a notice cautioning testing facilities about interpretation of the Polymerase chain reaction tests or PCR tests and the risk of false positives. Do you see any significance in the notice or it's timing? The Pandemic has seen a total corruption of Government and bureaucracy globally. The media has become derelict in reporting the truth and are complicit with many Governments and the World Health Organization in the chaos that now prevails. Covid-19 has become Politics 101. Scare the hell out of the population, tell them that you will save them and then get elected. And as for the media, be incompetent and continue the narrative of the Government and keep the panic and fear as a headline and many many headlines daily. The UK Government is wanting to do the second jab, not at the 3 week interval, but extend it, untested to 12 weeks. Government leaders and public health officials have not provided credible justification for their draconian restrictions on businesses and individuals during the Covid-19 pandemic. In fact, looking at what's been happening in places such as California, New York and Washington, Government actions have more to do with politics than science. The lack of transparency and the narrow focus of media on Covid-19 infections has increased public fear and allowed governments the greatest latitude in destroying thousands of small businesses and lives, and taking away individual freedoms. The headline statistics on new infections in the US and in other countries have been alarming but do we expect to see a downturn in infections soon – and not just because of the vaccine. Tomorrow is Australia Day. Senator Malcolm Roberts discusses why we should be proud to be a part of this great country. The conversation around changing the date of Australia Day is part of the mainly leftist cancel culture movement, and they want it moved or totally abolished. Really for most Australians, Australia Day is our day to celebrate this great country. And most Australians celebrate it with a bbq and a beer or Aussie wine. It's a cross between America's July 4 Celebrations and thanksgiving. Check us out on twitter: @narrative2day Visit The Narrative at thenarrative.today

The author of The Price of Panic: How the Tyranny of Experts Turned a Pandemic into a Catastrophe. How a fact-free media, along with wildly inaccurate forcasting models, "expert" who serially contradicted themselves (Fauci: we are looking at you!), and the lowest form of human expression (social media) ruined 2020 (and beyond?). A riveting conversation. To live my best version, I have tapped into blinkist.com. I'm getting a burst of micro learning from over 3000 books in their non fiction library.

For the first time in history, the world shut itself down — by choice — fearful of a virus that wasn't well understood. The government ordered the closure of countless businesses — many never to return. Schools sent students home to be taught in front of a computer. Churches canceled worship services. “Social distancing” went from a non-word to a moral obligation overnight. We need to know what happened—to keep it from ever happening again. Jay Richards joins Hank Hanegraaff, the host of the Bible Answer Man broadcast, to discuss his new book The Price of Panic, examining one of the most unprecedented global events in a generation — the COVID-19 pandemic. https://www.equip.org/product/cri-resource-cri2012hup/Topics discussed include: Are there similarities between the way that Y2K was covered and the coverage of Covid-19? (8:45); contrasting the Covid-19 pandemic with other historical pandemics (11:45); why have different populations fared better than others with handling the pandemic? (14:45); The Great Barrington Declaration (17:20); did the lockdowns make a difference? (20:50); the media and political investment in the Covid-19 pandemic panic (27:00); public health bureaucracy and the tyranny of experts (31:00); how Jay Richards and his colleagues dealt with accusations of being conspiracy theorists and/or hoaxers (33:20); is there any evidence to suggest that Covid-19 was manmade? (35:35); the science of social distancing (37:05); vaccines and herd immunity (39:55); why would the government shut down churches, but keep strip clubs open? (42:10); how to interpret mixed messages about the pandemic (43:45); is there any place for civil disobedience during the pandemic? (49:40); the impact of the Covid-19 vaccine (52:25); is the cure worse than the disease? (55:40); hospital capacity to handle Covid-19 cases (57:35); the relationship between testing and spikes (1:00:25); nursing home deaths and failed government policies (1:02:30); the impact of isolation during the pandemic (1:05:30); the use and misuse of predictive models (1:08:00); what is the tyranny of experts? (1:10:50); the role of big tech companies like Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, etc. played during the pandemic (1:16:45); political theater of public officials (1:19:50); learning to ask the right questions in the right order (1:24:30); how should we think about the Covid-19 vaccine? (1:26:00); criticism of The Price of Panic (1:28:20).

On today's Bible Answer Man broadcast (12/09/20), Hank talks about one of the resources we are featuring this month, the book The Price of Panic: How the Tyranny of Experts Turned a Pandemic into a Catastrophe by Professors Jay Richards, William Briggs, and Douglas Axe. https://www.equip.org/product/cri-resource-cri2012wa/Hank likens the panic surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic to the Millennium Bug where formidable intellects along the Christian landscape busily propagated reckless rumors regarding the upcoming new year of 2000. People like Dr. Jerry Falwell who posited that the Millennium Bug was God's instrument to shake the nation and start a revival in America that would spread across the face of the earth before the rapture of the Church. For his part, Dr. R.C. Sproul was envisioning a meltdown of civilization with one billion fatalities—the end of the world as we know it. Not knowing how to discern between truth and error, there were tens of thousands of Christians who were resigned to stocking up freeze-dried food and generators. What was really in short supply was discernment and truth. Well, today the media is doing the very thing they rightly accused Christian leaders of doing. They are using COVID-19 as the pretext for selling fear, for engaging in sloppy journalism, for employing subtly deceptive reasoning, and for trafficking in self-styled science.
Jay W. Richards is an Assistant Research Professor in the Busch School of Business and Fellow of the Institute for Human Ecology at The Catholic University of America. Jay W.

Weeks after our interview with Dr. Jay Richards, co-author of “The Price of Panic: How the Tyranny of Experts Turned a Pandemic into a Catastrophe”, he contracted COVID-19. Now recovered, Jay tells me about his personal experience with the virus, discussions he had with front line healthcare workers and why they don't wear the masks that the rest of us wear. We also look at how vaccines will start a whole new debate in this country.
