While other countries have changed course in their approach to "gender medicine" for minors, Canada forges on. Countless reports have shown that the “science” behind “gender medicine” for youth is bunk, and that these treatments are destructive, experimental, and cause permanent harm—leading to sterilization and numerous other health impacts. This all continues to be ignored by the media and the government. Why?In this episode, Meghan Murphy speaks with Mia Hughes, the author of The WPATH Files, a senior fellow at the Macdonald-Laurier Institute, director of Genspect Canada, and co-host of the Beyond Gender podcast. Read Mia's piece, “How gender activists stole the media, distorted medicine, and hurt Canadian kids,” at The Macdonald-Laurier Institute.The Same Drugs is on X @thesamedrugs_.

NEW FORMAT TEST!YO! AJ HERE! It's been a while! I've been thinking about ways to utilize the Directly to You channels in a way that will help grow Re:Direct as a whole and one of the ways I landed on was to start to upload them on the podcast feed & see if it resonates with people while HOPEFULLY not cannibalizing the main bread & butter.HERE'S WHAT I'M THINKING! Every week I (mostly) I upload scripted videos to YouTube in a video essay format - these videos are definitely enhanced with the visual context but they don't necessarily NEED to be consumed in this way so they would be a good fit here.In addition to that, I stream (at least) 3 times a week on Twitch. These streams vary in format and in topic & to be fully transparent in use case. Namely, I started a retrospective series where I am playing through the main series Pokemon games on stream to see if they aged well enough to validate the notion of "Game Freak getting lazy) with the end goal of consolidating that experience and my thoughts on each game into a hybrid format of a stream cutdown, a video review, & a standard Re:Direct video essay. THESE STREAMS do not make sense to upload here because it's a mix of me talking about the game(s) and a bunch of other stuff you need the video and the chat to have context to AND EVEN MORE IMPORTANTLY paid members get access to that sort of ancillary content for main channel videos. These streams don't fit here. HOWEVER there are streams that I do and that I plan to do that are MUCH more podcast-like. Tier Lists, Reactions, Discussions, & things of that ilk will happen on stream as we enter the Switch 2 era & those will show up here.LET ME KNOW THOUGHTS Either in comments of platforms that have them, or on socials, or in the RD Discord. All of which will be link in the shownotes for THIS video/audio log thing below. As far as that is concerned, I'm just gonna copy and paste the description lol.Support Re:Direct through our Memberships &/or Merch!

In this episode, I'm joined once again by the ever-brilliant Joshua Cutchin to discuss his latest book Fourth Wall Phantoms. This conversation is a deep dive into the fertile terrain between fiction and reality, where paranormal phenomena blur into imagination, archetype, and culture. He asks; What if stories were more than just stories? What if fictions came to life? What would that say about our greatest mysteries? What would that say about you?Joshua shares how this book was a cleansing act for him—an unapologetic exploration of how stories, symbols, and media shape and even generate anomalous experiences. We talk about everything from the dream-logic of high strangeness to the surrealist lens through which we might better understand UFOs, spirits, and cryptids.In the Plus show, Joshua notes a striking decline in classic alien abduction reports and explores how new kinds of contact experiences are emerging—ones that seem increasingly visionary, entangled with altered states of consciousness, and reflective of deeper shifts in cultural and psychic landscapes. We also touch on ideas that sit close to my own work: the transformative power of archetypes, the intoxicating grip of creative inspiration, and how folklore is not just a remnant of the past but an active force shaping our present. Joshua's notion of spirits as stories—brought to life through belief, performance, and imagination—feels especially resonant here.The conversation ends with some potent reflections on the current state of storytelling in Western culture. Are we running out of myths? Is the imagination drying up—or are we standing at the threshold of something new?Show notes:Website & book https://www.joshuacutchin.com/fourth-wall-phantomsKeep in touch?https://linktr.ee/darraghmasonMusic by Obliqka https://soundcloud.com/obliqka

Mike Brown is the winner of the FOX Nation game show "What Did I Miss?" hosted by Greg Gutfeld. For 90 days, starting on President Trump's inauguration day, he was isolated with other contestants in upstate New York. During this time, they were allowed no TV, internet, or newspapers. After their release, the game was to guess which news stories actually happened while they were gone and which were made up. Michael Brown recently spoke with host Chris Foster on the FOX News Rundown about his isolation and competing on this unique show. Michael's wife, Ashley, also joined the conversation and shared her perspective on living without Michael and watching the news cycle unfold while he was gone.

In May 2021, the CBC reported that the remains of 215 children had been discovered at the former site of the Kamloops Indian Residential School in British Columbia. More such ‘discoveries' at other former residential schools followed.While it is true that terrible things happened at residential schools, the headlines about these supposed “mass graves” were not. No remains had been discovered. There was no excavation. When MLA Dallas Brodie pointed out that the story was unfounded, BC Conservative Party leader, John Rustad, kicked her out of caucus. In this episode, Meghan Murphy speaks with Brodie this week about what happened.The Same Drugs is on X@thesamedrugs_. Meghan Murphy is on X @meghanemurphy and on Instagram @meghanemilymurphy.
