Dr. Nicole Gauthier is a Professor and Extension specialist at the University of Kentucky.  Her program focuses on disease management of specialty crops including fruits, vegetables, and hemp.  In her Extension role, she develops educational and outreach programs to help growers manage disease through identification, understanding of pathosystems, and integration of management strategies. Her research program focuses on a range of hemp diseases, including Fusarium head blight, as well as stand establishment and seedborne transmission.  Dr. Gauthier's resources can be found at plantpathology.ca.uky.edu/extension/publications, on Facebook and Twitter at @KYPlantDisease, and on YouTube at @NicoleGauthier.  Nicole's team at the University of Kentucky recently published a fact sheet about Fusarium head blight in hemp plants, which caught my eye considering many of the cultivators we work with at Medicinal Genomics struggle with that pathogen. During our conversation, we discuss: The financial impact of fusarium on Hemp and cannabis crops The public health concerns due to Fusarium's production of harmful mycotoxins How growers often misidentify Fusarium head blight as Botrytis due to similar symptoms, leading to ineffective management strategies. Environmental conditions that increase the likelihood of a Fusarium infection Challenges for prevention and management, including a lack of effective fungicides and resistant cultivars Future Research to understand Fusarium spread, genetic resistance, and management techniques Thanks to this episode's Sponsor: Rare Earth Genomics. Rare Earth Genomics is a dynamic partnership formed with Texas A&M AgriLife, one of the world's leading research institutions, to accelerate hemp research and create tools for farmers.

This week, Kevin McKernan, CSO and founder of Medicinal Genomics, joins the Cannabis Equipment News podcast to discuss unique ways to protect against strain theft, the state of cannabis science and how cultivators can grow their way out of yeast and mold failures.

What is "fiat science"? It's what you get when the state creates a lot of money out of thin air, then hands out bunches of it to scientific establishments, where decisions are made not on the basis of market forces, but on the basis of political ones.I speak with genetics expert and founder and CSO of Medicinal Genomics, Kevin McKernan, about why fiat science is a problem, the utter failure of the regulatory state, what needs to change – and what is starting to change.If you're still saying "peer-reviewed" like it's a good thing, you might want to take a listen.Our previous conversations about the problems with medical research and peer review in particular, are here and here.Kevin's Substack is here....and the post where he discusses Rebekah Barnett's FOIA reporting, and showcases Dr. Paul Offit's lies, is here.The UNITAID/Andrew Hill story can be found here and here.You can find Kevin on Twitter, here.Kevin's NCI (National Citizens Inquiry) Testimony is here.And you can learn about CannMed here.

On today's show, independent researchers and writers John Beaudoin Sr. and Kevin McKernan review Steve Kirsch's recent 'data bombshell' speech at MIT and take turns sharing their expert analysis of the pandemic and the subsequent jabs. John and Kevin each tell their remarkable stories of how they were able to recognize the scam of the pandemic early on, as a result of their respective fields of study. Also, John shares a profound and personal story, and Kevin explains some of his pioneering scientific work in the field of therapeutic cannabis. GUEST 1 OVERVIEW: John Paul Beaudoin, Sr. is an American author and father of three men for whom he spent all of his meaningful life caring. John has a Master's degree in Business Administration and a Bachelor's degree in Computer & Systems Engineering. After more than thirty (>30) years developing and executing campaigns for contracts in the electronics and semiconductors research and development industry, John lost his eldest son at twenty (20) years old in a motorcycle accident. Two (2) years afterward, the covid era began. John simply wanted truth and could not find it in government data, media announcements, press releases, or local conversations. He sought a signal amongst the noise. John knew that things were not as we were programmed to believe. Having been in sales and marketing, he recognized the tactics used against the populace. Three (3) and four (4) word catch phrases were repeated ad nauseam on television and social media. This is programming, marketing, advertising, manipulation, propaganda. “Two weeks to flatten the curve” “Safe and effective” “I wear my mask for you” “Six feet” “Antivaxers are selfish” “Don't kill grandma” “Correlation doesn't equal causation” John recognizes these mass manipulation tactics and strategies because he sees first-hand the outcome of such manipulation. He sees the world from a viewpoint of interrelated systems. When orders were given to lock down, social distance, mask, or vaccinate, John knew immediately the negative externalities that would ensue. Some people are frail in physical and mental health. Stark societal changes will maim or kill those at the margins of health. Given John's horizontal aptitude, he was a good fit for the problem. His insight is gleaned from his years of problem solving from an engineering point of view. This includes a unique and cursory knowledge across a wide range of disciplines including : psychology, sociology, economics, law, finance, accounting, physical sciences, electrical engineering. John is one of a handful of people with the record-level source data and the systems-level vision to pull it all together into a broad understanding of how this covid era came to be. https://substack.com/@coquindechien https://twitter.com/JohnBeaudoinSr GUEST 2 OVERVIEW: Kevin McKernan is the CSO and Founder of Medicinal Genomics and has pioneered the genomics of cannabis and hemp to build a stronger scientific environment (Kannapedia.net) for the study of cannabis based therapeutics and blockchain technologies for tracking and verifying cannabis genetics. Previously, Kevin was the CSO of Courtagen Life Sciences, Inc., and was Vice President and Director of R&D of Life Technologies where he managed the development of Life Technologies next generation SOLiD sequencing technology. Integral to the SOLiD R&D process, Kevin oversaw over 100 research collaborations exploring the new biological frontiers with next generation sequencing and saw particular excitement and traction in human tumor sequencing. Kevin initiated an R&D project to investigate chemFET semiconductor based DNA sequencing and spearheaded a process to acquire the DNA sequencing company Ion Torrent for $350M. These collaborations resulted in hundreds of publications and 7 Journal covers from Science Translational Medicine to Nature. Kevin was the President and CSO of Agencourt Personal Genomics, a startup company he co-founded in 2005 to invent revolutionary sequencing technologies that dropped the cost of sequencing a human genome from $300M to $3,000; a 100,000-fold improvement in sequencing speed and cost in a few years. In 2000, Kevin Co-Founded Agencourt Biosciences Corporation and acted as the CSO until it was acquired by Beckman Coulter. Kevin also managed the R&D for the Human Genome Project at Whitehead Institute/MIT resulting in several patents for nucleic acid purification. Kevin holds a B.S. in Biology from Emory University with a focus on cloning and expressing Norepinephrine Transporters. When not decoding DNA and unraveling the mysteries of cannabis medicine, Kevin enjoy boating, skiing, and gardening. https://substack.com/@kevinmckernan https://twitter.com/Kevin_McKernan

Show Notes and Transcript Naomi Wolf's latest book is something a little different.  Yes, it looks at the dark age which we all find ourselves living in, a world of wrong-think and de-platforming.  But it also tells a different story, one of an unexpected political, personal and spiritual transformation in Naomi's life that mirrors the change many of have seen in our own social circles.  Her high profile pilgrimage for truth saw Naomi cast out from her social and media circles for the crimes of challenging authority and questioning the narrative.  In this book she shares the personal story of re-finding herself in terms of politics and in terms of spirituality.  This is an honest story of the cost of defending truth and of the joy of rediscovering faith and a higher purpose. Naomi Wolf is a bestselling author, columnist, and professor; she is a graduate of Yale University and received a doctorate from Oxford. She is cofounder and CEO of DailyClout.io, a successful civic tech company. Since the publication of her landmark international bestseller, The Beauty Myth, which The New York Times called “one of the most important books of the 20th century," Naomi's other seven bestsellers have been translated worldwide. The End of America and Give Me Liberty: A Handbook For American Revolutionaries, predicted the current crisis in authoritarianism and presented effective tools for citizens to promote civic engagement. Naomi trains thought leaders of tomorrow, teaching public presentation to Rhodes Scholars and co-leading a Stony Brook University that gave professors skills to become public intellectuals. She was a Rhodes scholar herself, and was an advisor to the Clinton re-election campaign and to Vice President Al Gore. Dr Wolf has written for every major news outlet in the US and many globally; she had four opinion columns, including in The Guardian and the Sunday Times of London. She lives with her husband, veteran and private detective Brian, in the Hudson Valley.

Thank you so much for your time today. (Naomi Wolf) Thank you so much, Peter. I'm really happy to be talking to you again. Great, and we are going to look at your latest book, which is out, I think it's out on 9th of November, is it?  Yes. So it's just coming out. Perfect Christmas present. And I have loved reading through it, especially the spiritual aspect that comes out. But let me bring it up. That is it. Facing the beast. Courage, faith and resistance in a new dark age. People can obviously find you on Twitter on GETTR or anywhere else. That's your handle. And dailyclout.io, you, of course, are the co-founder and CEO. And we've had we had Amy Kelly on probably six months ago. Great conversation with her on the Pfizer documents and delved into that. I actually thought, it's interesting that you've come from the left and I read the Tucker Carlson piece right at the beginning. Naomi Wolf is one of the bravest and clearest thinking people I know. The reason you hear the forces of repression so desperately trying to dismiss her is because she is right. I wondered how long ago would you have to go to think that a endorsement by Tucker would have been the kiss of death. Yeah. You know, I've never really been, I've been a fixture on the legacy media left for my whole career. But I never really understood like tribalism. I've always been really happy to talk to conservatives or, you know, anyone. I mean. That's how I learned things. So, I think I would have always been happy to talk to Tucker Carlson, but it is absolutely true that the minute I began talking to conservatives, also the minute I began reporting accurately on the dangers of the mRNA injection, which happened to coincide, I became a non-person on the left, and that is part of the story I tell in Facing the Beast. Absolutely. The beginning was intriguing, chapter one of Lost Small Town. And one of the lines in it is, I forgive my neighbour who froze when I hugged her. I forgive my other neighbours who told me she was making homemade soup and fresh bread and that I could join her for some if I was vaccinated. If I was unvaccinated, however, she explained, someday she might consent to walk outdoors with me. And I think when people experience the last three years, many people are stuck at that stage of anger, at what has happened. And it's wonderful to talk, to see you referring so many times to actually forgive those injustices. And maybe you want to just touch on how you've arrived at that, because forgiveness is not necessarily a natural emotion. Anger is the first one that comes up, but you've moved well past that. And I think that's enlightening. Well, I don't want to overstate my evolved nature as a human on the planet. Forgiveness doesn't mean I'm not furious. I think, you know, I keep using that quote from Fitzgerald, the genius is the ability to hold two opposing ideas in your mind at the same time and still function. I am furious. I'm furious at all of them. And I forgive them, right? If all I am is furious then I'm gonna shrivel up and die from rage, right? But a lot of the book is also about accountability and a lot of my life day by day is about accountability because maybe not the men and women in the street whom I described in that chapter who were forced by the local boards of health putting pressure on the local, I guess, business council, whatever or regulates businesses, I guess all the Board of Health. They were the ones who forced these small business people who had everything to lose by their businesses going under, forced them to become police of their neighbours' bodies, forced teenagers working at the local movie theatre to shun and enforce a two-tier society, forced the florist to leap at customers and say, are you vaccinated? No one sane would have wanted to do that. But a lot of what I explore, and I'm the granddaughter of Jews in Europe and of a woman particularly who lost nine brothers and sisters in the Holocaust, but a lot of what I'm exploring in Facing the Beast is that parallel with 1931 to 1933, when people were forced to do things they didn't want to do that ended up in genociding their neighbours. That's exactly where we were and are at. So yes, forgiveness is just like, how do I remain emotionally and spiritually alive and growing, but it doesn't mean we don't haul the leaders of this effort off to, you know, in handcuffs, to prison, you know, to face trial and criminal charges. We do. Chapter two, opening boxes from 2019, and in it you talked about 11th of March 2020, you and Brian looked at each other and said we're getting out of here and that was through the governor there, Andrew Cuomo, beginning to lock down, I think he talked about Broadway being closed. Now that was intriguing, because I think you talked to a lot of people, it took a while to realise actually what is happening is not going to blow over in a couple of weeks and people hoped and believed that actually within three months we might be past it and then the penny begun to drop. And I've talked to friends, friends in Canada actually, who fled Canada, who did the same thing, got in a car and just drove out of there. Tell us that, because you saw bad things were coming right at the beginning. Most people aren't willing to take that jump. They kind of sit and they hope it will go away and don't act as quickly as you did. Yeah, that was such an interesting moment. And I, you know, I'm often so grateful that that my husband, Brian O'Shea, has life experiences that are not the same as mine. He spent much of his career in military intelligence embedded with special forces and in conflict areas around the world, and the balance of his career in intelligence, intelligence. So it weirdly mirrors being a journalist in conflict areas And journalists and spies, both are researchers. So we really understand each other. But I think both of us, from different times in our lives when we've been in conflict areas and very unstable political situations, when the governor can say Broadway is closing and Broadway closes all at once, both of us immediately understood that it wasn't America anymore. In America, you can't just close someone's business by fear, right? And in America business owners who don't want to close, don't close, you know, it's their decision. So, once the state can do something as draconian as closing a gigantic cultural engine which employs thousands of people in the greatest city on earth, then they can build quarantine camps, they can put people in quarantine camps, they can force injections, they can force organ harvesting, they can really do whatever they want. And so I'd written a book in 2008 called The End of America that looked at closing societies, times and places where fragile democracies were undermined or overthrown by totalitarians on the left or on the right. And I saw that there's a map that they all take the same 10 steps. So by having done that research, I realized, well, emergency law, which this governor declared, is step 10. And he wasn't lifting it. it was two weeks to flatten this curve. He wasn't lifting it in April, in May, in June. It was still emergency law. And so by June, when we were already in the woods and it was unlawful according to him by no representative process for us to have more than six people in our home, I realized this is full-on totalitarianism. They're never gonna let us out without a fight. I put that on social media, this is it. They're not letting us out. And I invited 50 people into my home for a potluck and I put it on social media because I at that point realized the only way we're going to have a democracy back ever, and this is history informing me, is if we all resist immediately and refuse to comply and do it very flagrantly. Now, chapter 3, what is a miracle? You talk about feeling overwhelmed at what was happening, how can we overcome the adversaries that we face. And you mention a moment where the mountain range seems to light up. And you realize I started laughing, it was as if God was saying, don't be silly, just look at me. Was the depth of my despair answered by a massive blaze of gold just when I needed a miracle, or was a miracle simply happened to look up and notice something? That line, was a miracle, I think it was Eric Metaxas, I think, wrote a book about miracles. As a fascinating concept, being a Brit, not one, never discussing faith, and obviously in the US it's a different, bolder attitude, but still amongst many people this is not a conversation you have, and certainly miracles are definitely not on the conversation topic. I love just that title, What is a miracle is a fascinating title.  Yeah, thank you. Yeah, well, you know, Peter, as you have seen, I've kind of dropped a lot of my prohibitions and inhibitions. You know, really my de-personing by the left was a blessing in disguise because I have nothing left to lose by saying what I really think. And you're absolutely right, I lived in Britain for many years. I lived in Scotland too. You're Scottish, right? No? I'm Northern Irish, but we have an affinity with the Scots just across the water. Right. I think I've asked you that before. Forgive me. But yes, the Celts. Britain is super, it's not just secular, it's like it is considered very tacky to talk about faith. And it's considered very tacky to talk about faith in my sophisticated, you know, Ivy League. You know, West and East Coast elite world. You're allowed to go to synagogue, you know, and say, well, I'm, you know, I went up for Yom Kippur, I went for Rosh Hashanah. Or if you're Christian, you can have Christmas, I suppose. But really, it's weird if you go to church on Sunday. It's certainly weird if you, I mean, miracles and that whole discourse of God actually having a hand in your actual life is really interestingly considered to be so vulgar to discuss. It's like worse, it's more taboo than sex addiction or gambling addiction or alcoholism. It's like super unsayable. But I was having, the story of the last two and a half years is also a story of a journey of faith on my part. And I did have experiences that you really can't explain and that were positive. But also, as I pointed out, what's a miracle? There are miracles all around us that we just don't categorize as miracles. Like a baby being born, that's a miracle. So much has to go right for that to happen. And the fact that there can be life is a miracle. Actually, Orthodox Jews understand this. They're always thanking God for very mundane things that we overlook. But love is a miracle. Families are miracles. It's all a miracle, right? Healing is a miracle. I did have this super weird experience, which I've videotaped, of my little dog Mushroom was passing away at 18. And as he was dying, in the river near our house, there was a long, suddenly out of nowhere, it was midwinter, a long stemmed red rose, a real one, just not over the water, not under the water, like hovering under the water about 10 inches under this rushing icy stream. And it literally just stayed there for 10 days. It wasn't caught on anything. It was completely not understandable in any physical terms that I had. And I showed Brian. Literally, I posted this. He's a witness. A million people are witnesses that this happened. And then when Mushroom died, the petals released, and it flowed away. But roses have all kinds of symbolic meaning in a bunch of religions. Was it a miracle? I don't know, and that was Brian's line, what's a miracle? Maybe that's the wrong question. Like maybe it's all a miracle, and it just takes our noticing it. I mean, part of why I shared that is I also more quickly came to the conclusion that there was a force of evil that had been unleashed in 2020 that is still with us, that is more massive and gigantic and not explainable in normal human political rationalist terms than I had ever witnessed in my lifetime. And that it was like negative proof. If a force of evil can be this big, this sophisticated, get all the leaders of all the nations to do exactly the same things with the exact same language and exactly the same time sequence and cast a spirit of delusion on so many people I knew and loved that was impenetrable, but not open to any fact, and divide families, and allow a two-tier discriminatory society all over the West in nations predicated by law and human rights and equality under the law, overnight, that everyone embraced a discrimination society. Not to mention other horrible things like sacrificing children, feeding children up to an experimental injection, the idea of the loss of bodily autonomy, which is part of slavery, right? Like all of this was so big and happening in a way that human history doesn't unfold, right? Human history, even with the worst tyrants, there are factions, there's backbiting, there's assassination attempts. Not everyone goes along with it all over the world all at once, ever. So I had to conclude that that scale of evil was metaphysical. Because human practice, even the worst human politics can't accomplish that. And subsequently I concluded that if something that evil was metaphysical, it must be aimed at something metaphysical that was good. And so I became much more open to the idea that God or the creative force in the world that is good exists and exists in a really intimate way and cares about humanity and that this was a struggle between good and evil for the bodies and souls of humanity.  And that whole struggle against good and evil, I mean, that's personally one of the issues which has helped me through it, and that is not a stick to lean on, that's accepting truth. Because chapter 5, thinking like a tyrant, and if you look into what has happened, the evil, but then your chapter 4, principalities and powers, that you realize that there is something more behind it. Because if all you see is the evil in humanity, then it's hopelessness. But if you do believe and understand and realise there is that battle between good and evil which is bigger than that human aspect, then it means you can sit back, you can reassess it, and it's not hopelessness, it's actually looking past that. And to me that is the way we actually live through and see past the chaos that we've faced over the last three years.  Yeah, I mean I agree with you if I understand what you're saying but I'm not sure that I agree that humanity is essentially good. I think and this is a difference between, I think it's a, I've had really interesting conversations that reveal the real differences in heritage between Jews and Christians. Christians are pretty sanguine right now because they in their book it all ends happily. Revelation, Jesus returns, it's all fine. And as a Jew, I'm freaking out. And I'm freaking out because it doesn't really necessarily end happily in our story, right? There were times when, you know, Jerusalem was reduced to rubble and its inhabitants were, you know, killed or enslaved. There were times when we were exiled to Babylon and we wept beside the waters of Babylon and we missed Zion. There were times when we were fed into ovens, you know, in post kind of Christian history or murdered by the Inquisition, like. It doesn't end happily necessarily for us. That said, like without, without, how can I put it? I think we're in a time of moral testing, and I don't think it's just going to be okay if we don't step up. And that's really the message of the Hebrew Bible, which I'm reading the 1560 Bible, aloud, which is the Founders Bible, very important Bible in England and Scotland. It was a Bible created before the King James Bible by English dissidents, reformers, who would be put to death in England, some of them were put to death, but they fled to Geneva. And there they just translated the Bible into English from the Hebrew. So it's the most accurate direct translation I've read. I read Hebrew as well. And I'm not surprised that it's the Founders Bible and the Puritans Bible, because it has such a different, the translation is so different from the King James and other subsequent Bibles. My point is, it's definitely a Bible that conveys the message of the Hebrew Bible, which is don't wait for an intermediary. Someone else is not gonna make it okay. You have to, you know, walk with God, you know, along in the relationship that God set out and sought out, you know, with human beings if you want to be blessed, if you want life, like literally. And horrible things happen, not because of a punitive God, but because of universal laws, when people choose to worship themselves as, you know, as it's put, I think, several times in the Hebrew Bible. So, I guess I'm not saying you're not right. I personally don't think labels matter anymore. I'm not saying I'm right. I'm just saying there are different kind of calculus is in the different religions about what we do. And right now I'm very much in the Hebrew Bible calculus of, I don't think we're gonna survive this if we don't proactively, every single one of us, kind of align with the relationship that God set out for us with him. A hundred percent. Following God, I don't think, negates our responsibility, because back if Abraham had not followed the call of God, then the history would be different. So we have our role to play, but I think probably the promises are what God says for a thousand generations. So it lasts past good times and bad times, and then goes further. But none of that negates our position and responsibility to do what we can do, that we are called to do, and the skills and the abilities and the talents that we have to actually make a difference. I agree with you, absolutely.  Chapter 6, the subtlety of monsters. Again, it can be over, you talk about vaccines did not manage to wipe out humanity's ability to reproduce, though live births are down 13 to 20 percent, it was central bank digital currencies, 15-minute cities, internet of things, GMO mosquitoes, there are whole, Dutch farmers de-banking as a whole plethora. I've probably, when you see that, because it all comes, it is subtle. It is for our good, for our health, to help us, for our convenience. Convenience comes up often. How do you get past, or how do you kind of persuade people that these are evil? Because often you can point out these issues, 15 minutes cities, oh, well, being local is good. No, no, no, it's about restricting you, controlling you. And sometimes people cannot, despite what's happened the last three years, cannot see past that government propaganda, I guess. Right. Yeah. Wow. That's such an important question. And again, I think there are regional differences in how easy or hard it is to persuade the people around you that, you know, it may seem convenient or green, but it's really going to enslave you and your children forever. So I wrote in The Bodies of Others, my last book, about the really toxic threat that the EU represents, in my view. And I'm sure from what you just said, you might agree with this. Or you already agree, and I should learn from you. But the EU, again, having lived in Britain before Brexit for many years, I was very aware that Britain has a robust tradition of individualism and freedom of speech and the rule of law and people clamouring, Chartism, clamouring for representation in government. It's not a Marxist communitarian history at all, or even that's not even organic to Britain's, not Britain, not Wales, not Ireland, not Scotland, no one's ideology. It's not an organic part of the culture. And yet, I noticed over 10 or 15 years how really communist ideas were chipping away, chipping away, chipping away at that British tradition. And then I really noticed in about 2015 or 16 that no one knew how to lobby their MPs anymore. And when I would ask people later under, I'm not sure I have the timeline right, when Britain was part of Europe, I would say, do you know how to lobby your MEP? And of course, then I looked at the structure of the European Union, and sure enough, it was a giant mess that pretty much came down to, it's not a representative government at all, you know, not a meta government, it's not a government thing, it's a corporate thing that doesn't allow any real representation. And literally British journalists I knew didn't know that, right? They didn't know that, like the Sunday Times journalists did not know that the structure the EU did not allow for any actual representation. It's kind of, there's fog of war, you know, or glitter thrown in people's eyes about like red tape and bureaucrats. It's much more serious than that. There's like no representation, no transparency, no accountability. It's a coup, like Europe is a coup. So where I'm going with this is, and in retrospect that explained a lot of the opposition to Brexit, I think, and the efforts to kind of soften and soften and soften Brexit, as if you can soften one country not being part of, you know, another group of countries. That's the world we're in, where that ideology is you can have a kind of virtual separation of countries that isn't real. I'm going somewhere with that, which is, I think it's now a lot harder for you in Britain to persuade people that the state isn't the source of everything, then it would have been even 15 years ago. And the other problem is people get so many benefits from the state in Europe and in Britain, and that's messaged as well, as benefits, right? And it's very tempting. Well, I have this free this and free that. And I love it. Like, I used to be thoroughly on board with free health care and free universities and everything. Why not? I mean, fabulous. The people deserve it. But the dark side is that the discourse of individualism and individual rights becomes very theoretical. Once they give you all these good things, then when they say, but you can't drive your car from here to here, it's very hard to realise that that was a poisoned gift. In America, we're in a little bit of a different situation, thankfully, again, historically. And I don't mean to be like, nyah, nyah, nyah. I really don't. I think both countries have their challenges. But just like there's a downside of individualism, like kids don't always get fed, and elders don't always get looked after and so on. The upside is now in this crisis, we are like, hell no. And we also have a wonderful thing that the founders left for us, which is states. And so states at a state level can reject lockdowns or mandatory vaccination or masking or closures of businesses, even if a federal government is out of control. So what I've seen in America is people becoming very aware, based on an ideology of individual rights and individualism, that how central bank digital currency can switch you off, for instance. Or my video about in March of 2021, I think about how vaccine passports that are digital can become a social credit system very quickly to banning them in 33 states. But it's a constant fight to remind people, your liberty depends on protecting your liberty. Luckily, we have a discourse of that still. I feel like in Britain, that discourse got really, I mean, you're almost a racist in Britain or in Europe. If you talked about being proud of being British or being proud of being French, that necessarily have to be a racist posture at all, but I think there was a deliberate cultural attack on the language of individualism and rights in Britain and in Europe. Completely. I could delve much deeper in that, but I won't. Chapter 7, White Feathers, you say in the DMs, people whom I knew socially or professionally, people from journalism, politics, medicine, would say, Naomi, I really respect your actions right now, I totally agree with what you're saying, but of course I can't do anything, and often these people were in positions of power, they could do something. And you mentioned individuals who have stood up, Dr. Peter McCullough, Ed Dowd, Steve Bannon in journalism, many others. I kind of thought that the desire to do right would rise up and would win the day, but obviously not. How did you, were you as surprised at that? The people who, the penny kind of was dropping and yet they just refused to do the right thing because of fear of what would happen?  You know, Peter, I was completely surprised. I, to this day, I'm really in shock at what I witnessed because we all assumed, you know, we would know what to do if it was Germany in 1933 and that we would stand up against the Nazis and we would hide Anne Frank and we would, or, you know, if it was 1854, we would shelter that runaway slave. You know, we on the left, especially thought we were the good guys, you know, and that we stood up against tyrants. So I was, and remain, appalled at the quisling, colours revealed by my former peers and friends that the, and even more appalled that they, they're not ashamed. You know, like I've literally had people say, you know, loved ones say, well, I, you know, I'm going to get a booster, not because I believe in it or want to, but because I don't want to be kicked out of my bridge group or my, you know, play group, my mom's play group or, well, you know, as I wrote in facing the beast, the, the men, I mean, I'm sorry to gender this, but, you know, I've, I've kind of among the many things I've rethought on my journey is the point of men, and I mean, I've always been a fan of men as much as women, but like, men are kind of supposed to protect women and children, you know, in battle conditions or in dangerous conditions. I don't know why, I just think that's evolutionary necessity and also kind of the appropriate way to honour women and children. So I guess what I was astonished to find is that on the right, men still think they should be courageous and stand up for their ideals and take risks on behalf of the greater good or their loved ones who are dependent on them. And on the left, I was astonished to see grown men telling me why they were, you know, I'm not going to say the word because it's a naughty word, but, you know, very cowardly. You know? And have no shame or self-consciousness about it. And it's like, I'm out here at the front, man. You know, I'm taking the hits. I have to, I had to have two armed, like retired NYPD detectives flanking me at my last speech. I'm scared. Of course, I married my bodyguard, but out in the world, I'm still scared. These guys are like, well, obviously, I'm not going to say anything because my boss might get mad at me or I might lose some marginal professional advantage or major professional advantage. It's like people's lives are at stake. Children are at stake. They're injecting these tiny people who are not old enough to make decisions for themselves, who have no informed consent because they're minors. And you're not going to step out front with something you know to be wrong and say it's wrong. Or, I mean, don't get me started because obviously I have a lot of unprocessed grief and rage about this, but the two-tier society. All of these people are so right on. They would never discriminate against a gay couple or a lesbian couple or a person of colour ever, ever. They think that conservatives are the haters, right, and the people who discriminate. But these same people overnight in New York City and LA and other cities embraced a discrimination society and colluded with it a thousand percent and had no problem with the fact that I could not walk into, you know, most of the buildings in New York City. I could not sit indoors and eat with my family in a restaurant. I had to sit in the street like an animal. You know, they had no problem with that. They had no problem with turning away or firing, you know, workers and students, disproportionately people of colour and lower income people. No problem. They had no problem with laws that were basically Jim Crow laws that applied to vaccination status.  And a lot of them like gave rise to hateful rhetoric, you know, exactly like racism or anti-Semitism related to unvaccinated people. So I lost all respect, you know, I could go on to like subcategories like feminists, right? We know it's not, we're not babes in the woods. We know that big pharma has experimented on women's bodies and that corporations sometimes exploit women. We know that. I helped to break the story about silicone breast implants that were taken off the market. We know about thalidomide. We know about vaginal mesh. We know about estrogen being too high in birth control pills. This is so like feminism 101 that corporations and pharma and medicine can exploit women. It's not news. And I was a heroine when when I pointed this out with like industrialized birthing practices in my previous books among these same people. But the fact that these injections are 62% of the adverse events are women, they're creating massive disabilities based on like bleeding among women. They're sterilizing women. They're compromising placentas. Maternal deaths are up by 40%. Babies are being born, birthed two months premature because the placentas are impaired by these lipid nanoparticles. There's poison in breast milk. It's a war on women, especially women's bodies. And I'm the crazy person for reminding people that women are being harmed and babies are being harmed. Where are, and I talk about this in detail, I name names, like Justice Sotomayor, Justice Kagan. They went on and on and on about my body, my choice when it came to abortion rights. And they ruled against people having the right to decide what's injected into their own bodies, it's the same rhetoric. So yes, I lost a lot of respect for these people. But obviously it was you pointing that out as a tweet that first brought you into being a conspiracy theorist, brought you into being a Tad, and then the FIDR documents, when you brought that out there. So what you look at over the last, I think, three years and you see points where individuals or organizations have produced the evidence this is what is happening. With Ed Dowd with his book listing, showing all the sudden deaths. With this, the Pfizer documents, how you and Daily Clout and the thousands of volunteers pulled that together. I mean, Tell us about the response to that, because when you put the information, you say, there it is, it is happening, here is the data. It's not just a tweet, it's just the data with all the references to it. And yes, hmm, hmm, oh well, we just carry on. Tell us about that, kind of the response to that, because that document was key. Yeah, sure. I mean, God bless all these people now that their loved ones are or getting sick or dealing with turbo cancers or strokes, or they're reaching out for medical advice. It's so heart-breaking. So your audience may know that I oversee a project of 3,250 doctors and nurses and scientists and medical fraud investigators, biostatisticians, a range of high-level experts going through the Pfizer documents, which are these 450,000 pages released under court order that the FDA asked the court to keep hidden for 75 years. And we've issued 89 reports. They're all on that upper right-hand corner of Daily Clout. You can order them in book format. And they've documented the greatest crime against humanity in recorded history, again with a special focus on sterilization. I'm going to skip ahead. And as you say, it's not my opinion, I'm not a medical doctor or a scientist. All of these reports link to the primary source documents. So you can see for yourself, you know, we've got a report, someone just told me that her mom had a stroke. And we've got a report showing that 48% of the serious adverse events, including death, in the stroke category, which is a massive category for adverse events after injection, half of them took place within 48 hours of the injection. You know, I could go on and on with the various categories that, you know, emerged among the many other headlines this team broke. You know, blood clots, lung clots, leg clots, thrombotic thrombocytopenia, neurological damage at scale, haemorrhages, dementias, Alzheimer's, Bell's palsy, joint pain, interestingly, arthritis is number one side effect. Myalgia, which is muscle pain, is number two. Number three is COVID, because the injections by November of 2020 were proven internally not to stop COVID, to be completely ineffective. Vaccine failure was the internal language Pfizer used. You know, there's not enough time for me to like document the headlines that the team has surfaced about harms that these people knew they were doing, again, especially reproductive harms. But what is really important to bring people up to date on is the last four reports. The first two last week showed that through a FOIA by our lawyer, Ed Berkovich, the White House drove a concealment in May of 2021 of harms brought to their attention that were blood damage, blood clots, and myocarditis. And they looped in Dr. Walensky, Dr. Fauci, Dr. Collins, but it was 15 White House staffers convening a freak-out meeting to create a script, their language which is 17 pages long, all redacted to cover up this harm. And remember what happened in 2021 was mandates. Knowing this damage that it caused, they mandated it to kids, to soldiers, sailors, college students, and so on. But I'll skip ahead to the last really important story that your audience needs to know. Other, researchers, including Kevin McKernan at Medicinal Genomics, Dr. Philip Buchholz in South Carolina, they've independently found that the injections are contaminated. And that the contaminants are fragments of DNA, fragmented DNA, and plasmids grown in E. coli which can enter your nucleus and cause untold harm, but also very concerning SV40, simian virus 40, which is a carcinogen. NIH and OSHA categorize it as a carcinogen that causes cancer in laboratory animals. So we're seeing these turbo cancers, you know, three, four months, someone goes from perfectly healthy to very sick to dead, things oncologists have never seen before. And oncologists like Dr. Flowers on our team, Dr. Cole are really worried that this SV40 is a carcinogen that is related to these turbo cancers. And the last thing I'll say politically is that our team, Amy Kelly, my COO, found that Pfizer is concealing, redacting, while all these questions are coming up, how did this happen? How did it get contaminated and adulterated in this way? Pfizer created at the very end of the process, the process they, brought for emergency use authorizations called Process 1. And FDA signed off on it. It's fine. It's clean. Then Pfizer substituted an internal secret trial of process two. 200 people were injected with these contaminated formulations. They had a 2.4 times rate of adverse events as the other group. Then process two, a bait and switch, was rolled out into everyone's arms. And process two has the carcinogens and the DNA fragments in it. And Pfizer has now redacted the manufacturing process with the FDA's collusion in their papers. Well, I think you've laid out a perfect reason why people need to make sure and go on dailyclout.io and get themselves up to speed because it never ends. There's always something coming out. And I know our viewers and listeners will be eager to know what else is happening. Can we just finish, there are so many, the Chapter 8, Rethinking the Second Amendment, I would love to, but I'm not going to touch that. Chapter 12, Thanksgiving, gathering that, the kingdom of God, that connection of community. Chapter 16, How the Ancient Gods Returned, I love that just because the whole spiritual aspect, there's so much. But maybe just to finish off, I, never having written a book, but I assume you start out with a plan. This is what you want to do. And I assume through the process, you learn things along the way. And as you put it together, people can get it from the 9th of November. What do you want to leave with people? What do you want to portray as they get the book, as they read it, what do you want that lasting thought to be with them as they read through it? Great question Peter. May I note that you can pre-order it now even before the 9th of November and that's important because it sends a signal to the publishing industry when people pre-order, so please do, so I won't get cancelled yet again. Let's see. What do I want people to leave with? Well, I guess this is kind of a different book than my other books. It's not an argument, it's a reflection and I think a lot of us have maybe all of us have been traumatized by the last two and a half years and also traumatized by the fact that our suffering and the shock we endured is being papered over and kind of dropped through the memory hole So, I was really inspired by a book called I Will Bear Witness by Victor Klemperer, which is just literally almost a journal of, you know, his life, I think, in Munich, you know, as the before and as the Nazis were coming to power, and just bit by bit, he couldn't shop in his local store, and bit by bit, he lost his housing, bit by bit, he, you know, the neighbours turned away from him, and he just chronicled it. I think it's really important for there to just be a witness to this time, you know, in my humble way I tried to do that. And I think it's healing for people to have their experience kind of validated and reflected. It helps us actually move forward instead of being kind of pushed forward by the tyrants who want us to forget about it. That's number one. And I guess number two, what do I want? Well, I guess we're not allowed to proselytize in Judaism, and I don't like to ever. I think all these things are so personal. But I actually do think we're at an inflection point in history, Peter, where we may not survive if we don't look at ourselves in the mirror. And if that leads to us reconnecting to God, I think that will help us survive. So I probably hope that that might happen as well, that people might, I mean, such a surprise to me is to read the Geneva Bible and see that the persona of God is completely different from the way his persona has been translated in subsequent 500 years of translations. And it turns out, in the original Hebrew and the Geneva Bible, super nice guy, like very different from this distant, remote, judgmental, irrational, punitive, censorious persona, which is all about the intermediary. It turns out you don't need an intermediary. I mean, God isn't in heaven, it turns out. That's a mistranslation. God is in the sky. Like literally, God keeps being written out of translations. But Jacob didn't wrestle with the angel. It was God preparing him for this very difficult day. Like over and over again in the original, God just shows up for us in a non-scary, very human way, I guess I'd say. And that's a surprise to me. So I guess I would want people who are feeling lost to have a sense of that, because it's very hopeful news. Well, I certainly read not as an argument, you're right, but as you grasping, wrestling, understanding, for you personally, and also what it means to have a faith and to look up in these times. And people can, yeah, it's available as e-book, as audio book, and as a physical copy. So if nothing else, if you want to take away from this, then I encourage the viewers, listeners, to go click on the link, it'll be in the description, and you can pre-order that and get that from the 9th of November. Naomi, I appreciate you coming on, love the book. Thank you so much for sharing with me and our audience. Thank you so much, Peter. We always love talking to you. Thank you so much.

Some people in the cannabis industry are questioning whether it is appropriate or necessary to test inhaled cannabis products for pathogenic Aspergillus.  Full disclosure, we at Medicinal Genomics sell qPCR testing kits designed to detect pathogenic Aspergillus on cannabis products. We have also published several resources on our website that describe the potential harms that can be caused by inhaling pathogenic Aspergillus spores and cite with more than 2 dozen Aspergilosis cases in cannabis users.  We have also recommended that states that are considering cannabis testing regulations adopt pathogenic Aspergillus testing. Not because we sell Aspergillus tests, but because we want to protect patients.  By almost any measure, cannabis is one of the most safe and effective medicines available. And in many cases, the potential harms that can come from using cannabis are not caused by the plant, but rather contaminants. And although cases are rare, The documented cases describing Aspergillosis deaths from contaminated cannabis vastly outnumber the published clinical risks for every other contaminant for which the cannabis industry tests. There are no documented deaths for cannabis-derived heavy metals, mycotoxins, pesticides or incorrect cannabinoid labeling. The same cannot be said  So that is our position, but of course we acknowledge that we are biased, and we are not experts on pathogenic fungi; however, our guest today is.  David W. Denning is a Professor of Infectious Diseases in Global Health at the University of Manchester in the United Kingdom. He was the founding president, executive director, and CEO of Global Action For Fungal Infections, an organization dedicated to reducing the worldwide burden of fungal disease. In 2016, he became the director of the National Aspergillosis Centre in Manchester, which treats patients with chronic pulmonary aspergillosis (CPA), and led the committee that developed the first CPA guidelines. He chairs the editorial board of a website which focusses on aspergillus and he leads an organisation which provides education on fungal diseases.  In short, Dr. Denning is the leading authority on all things Aspergillus, and we asked him many of the questions that have been debated on social media recently, including:  Should cannabis be tested for pathogenic Aspergillus Should there be an allowable limit for pathogenic Aspergillus? Is Apergillosis only a concern for immunocompromised patients?  Are the number of Aspergillosis cases under reported?  How difficult is Aspergillosis to diagnose and treat?  How ubiquitous is Aspergillus in the air we breathe?  and so much more.  Thanks to This Episode's Sponsor: Modern Canna Modern Canna is regarded as Florida's first medical cannabis laboratory and one of the most trusted third party testing providers in the United States.

In February, Kevin McKernan, CSO of Medicinal Genomics, was deep sequencing Pfizer mRNA vaccines when he discovered that every sample he tested was contaminated with large quantities of plasmid DNA. A plasmid is a circular piece of DNA integral in the manufacturing process of mRNA vaccines, but it doesn't belong in the final shot going into arms, nor is it a listed component of either the Moderna or Pfizer mRNA vaccines. McKernan re-tested multiple different vaccine samples from multiple different lots using multiple different methods, but consistently got the same result: substantial plasmid DNA contamination in every Pfizer vaccine sample tested. McKernan published his findings but received no coverage by the MSM, nor was he contacted by Pfizer, the CDC, or the FDA. When I interviewed Kevin in April, no other lab in the US had confirmed McKernan's results. Now they have. McKernan's findings have been repeated and confirmed by Dr. Phillip Buckhaults, a cancer genomics expert from the University of South Carolina. On September 18th, Buckhaults testified before the South Carolina Senate Medical Affairs Ad-Hoc Committee on DHEC and presented his findings. There's no longer any doubt that substantial quantities of plasmid DNA contaminated the Pfizer mRNA vaccines injected into humans. The issue that needs to be addressed is: What are the human health effects of being injected with 200-billion plasmid DNA fragments per jab? The MSM, the FDA, the CDC, and Pfizer have been dismissive of the potential public health consequences of injecting hundreds of billions of DNA fragments contained in each jab into the arms of hundreds of millions of humans. Two potential problems identified by both McKernan and Buckhaults is the risk of cancer transformation and immune targeting of cells taking up the vaccine. Today, I cover highlights of that September 18th South Carolina Senate hearing featuring Dr. Phillip Buckhaults discussing the plasmid DNA contamination of the Pfizer vaccines, what it could mean, and what should be done about it.

"There was a case where Dr. He in China did some genome edits on two children—on two babies. He made two CRISPR babies. That guy went to jail, all right? Suddenly, fast forward to today: we're willing to take that risk on billions of people."Kevin McKernan worked at the Human Genome Project at MIT as manager of research and development. Today, he is the chief scientific officer and founder of Medicinal Genomics, and is researching DNA contamination in the COVID-19 genetic vaccines."There are limits on how much DNA can be in a vaccine precisely because of the concern over DNA integration," says Mr. McKernan. "What we do know is in both shots, there is residual DNA, and this DNA is either right above the regulatory limit or tenfold higher."How do the different mRNA vaccine components impact the body? What's really going on with the SB 40 monkey virus promoter that's in them? Why should we be concerned about lipid nanoparticles and DNA open reading frames? And how is synthetic mRNA fundamentally different from naturally-occurring mRNA?"Australia has different guidelines on what constitutes gene therapy, and it looks like these vaccines may, in fact, fall under that category, given the fact that there's DNA in them and they're using LNPs. And we now know that some of the DNA in there has been used and documented as a gene therapy tool," says Mr. McKernan.

It's Good Friday, April 7th, A.D. 2023. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. By Adam McManus (Adam@TheWorldview.com) Indonesia closes church before Resurrection Sunday Indonesian officials have closed the Purwakarta Simalungun Protestant Christian Church building in Cigelam Village because it did not have a building permit, reports International Christian Concern. The Regent, Anne Mustika, decided to close the church to avoid conflict in the Muslim-majority country. A pastor asked if the church could still hold their Resurrection Sunday service at their original church building. So far, no response. Will Biden cede American sovereignty to the W.H.O.? Appearing on Daystar TV with Table Talk Host Joni Lamb, former Republican Congresswoman Michelle Bachmann warned Christian viewers about the possible loss of American sovereignty. BACHMANN: “The Biden administration wanted to yield and give over full United States authority over health care decisions over issuing a pandemic to the World Health Organization. “So, if we thought it was bad enough that Dr. [Anthony] Fauci was telling us what we had to do, or the Centers for Disease Control, mandating vaccines, mandating lockdowns, mandating mask wearing, restricting the right to travel, closing businesses, closing churches -- all of that came from emergency powers. “Today, we are still under emergency powers. President Biden said he would give up his emergency power in May. Well, that's interesting. Why May? “It's because this coming May, in Geneva, Switzerland, the Biden administration seeks to change the rules of the International Health Regulations at the World Health Organization so that we can give full sovereignty over health care to the World Health Organization.” In response, Republican Senators Kevin Cramer of North Dakota and Jim Risch of Idaho introduced a resolution on March 6th to ensure that President Joe Biden does not cede U.S. sovereignty to entities like the World Health Organization by ratifying global pandemic agreements without Senate approval. Senator Cramer said, “Any binding agreement with the World Health Organization should require Senate ratification as a treaty. The World Health Organization has proven itself incapable of holding the Chinese Communist Party accountable for its role in the COVID-19 pandemic. Relinquishing U.S. sovereignty to an international entity like this would dilute American excellence.” (Read the resolution wording.) Joining Senators Cramer and Risch are Republican Senators John Barrasso of Wyoming, Bill Hagerty of Tennessee, Ted Cruz of Texas, Marsha Blackburn of Tennessee, Cynthia Lummis of Wyoming, Mike Braun of Indiana, Steve Daines of Montana, Roger Marshall of Kansas, Bill Cassidy of Louisiana, Susan Collins of Maine, John Thune of South Dakota, Markwayne Mullin of Oklahoma, and Joni Ernst of Iowa.   To encourage your Senator to support this resolution that urges President Biden not to cede American sovereignty to the World Health Organization, call 202-224-3121.

Contaminated Pfizer COVID jabs killed 2 children, injured 1,200 A new study reveals that a large “mega-batch” of Pfizer gene-based COVID injectable product “targeted at children” has killed two ten-year-old boys and injured at least 1,264 youngsters, reports LifeSiteNews.com. A March 31st report by Sasha Latypova — a former pharmaceutical executive turned researcher — highlighted a study performed by Medicinal Genomics that discovered and documented DNA contamination in Pfizer “mega-batch” number FL8095, which was marketed to children between the ages of 5 and 11. Right Side Broadcasting Network suspended Another day and another attack on conservative voices in America. It is the Google-YouTube conglomerate that again is being accused of using its online power to "eradicate the web of conservative voices" after its decision to suspend Right Side Broadcasting Network. The conservative network was accused of "pushing content on the stolen elections, fraud in the 2020 elections, and [an absence] of opposing voices," reports WorldNetDaily.com. It's a frequent claim from leftists who want to suppress concerns about America's elections. But the facts remain that a Media Research Center poll after the 2020 presidential election revealed that Joe Biden almost undoubtedly would have lost key swing states – and the election, had social and legacy media not interfered in the election by suppressing damaging, but accurate, reporting about the Biden family's international business schemes. Proverbs 29:27 says, “An unjust man is an abomination to the righteous.” Further, there was the undue influence on election results from the $413 million that Mark Zuckerberg handed out through foundations to local election officials, who often used the windfall to recruit voters from Democrat districts. Almost certainly without those factors, which came from outside America's election process, the U.S. would be in the middle of President Trump's second term now. Amateur gold digger finds huge nugget worth $160,000 in Australia And finally, an Australian gold digger turned up a stone weighing 10 pounds, more than half of which is gold, and one of the largest finds in recent times, reports the Good News Network.

In early February, Kevin McKernan, Chief Science Officer of Medicinal Genomics, was deep sequencing Moderna and Pfizer bivalent booster vaccines to help solve a technical problem with his sequencing process when he made an entirely unexpected discovery: the Pfizer and Moderna bivalent booster samples were contaminated with DNA that contained the Spike protein gene within it. Self-replicating DNA plasmids containing the spike protein gene are an integral part of the manufacturing process to make the Pfizer and Moderna COVID vaccines; they are not supposed to be in the final product injected into humans. Kevin repeated the analysis on Pfizer's monovalent vaccine [the original COVID-19 vaccine requiring 3 jabs] using multiple different measuring tools and arrived at the same result: Plasmid DNA with the Spike gene contaminating the vaccine. When he measured the quantity of DNA it was an order of magnitude higher than the acceptable limit specified by the European Medicines Agency [EMA] in some lots. Today, I have Kevin McKernan in the virtual studio to explain his research, what he found, and what it means. #Plasmidgate.

Paying tribute to the "Godfather" of CBD.Our mission is to spread the word about Raw CBD (CBDA) and how it works to heal the body in a much more profound way than it's decarboxylated version, CBD. At the latest CannMed Convention in Pasadena, CA, presented by Medicinal Genomics in partnership with EPM, Dr. Rafael Mechoulam, the Godfather of CBD, announced to the world his latest research. Being that Dr. Mechoulam is credited for discovering the CBD and THC molecules back in the 60's, we in the cannabis industry listen intently when he has something to say. Essentially the big reveal is that instead of diving deeper into the world of CBD and THC, Dr. Mechoulam focuses research on CBDA (cannabidiolic acid, AKA Raw CBD).https://101cbd.org/2019/10/23/dr-rafael-mechoulam-focuses-research-on-cbda/In his latest efforts, he has been working to find a way to stabilize CBDA so that he and his scientist colleagues are better able to study it's promising effects on the body. They have found some extremely exciting results using their stabilized version of CBDA (cannabidiolic acid methyl ester, HU-580). Dr. Mechoulam also reconfirms our belief in the Entourage Effect, reminding us that when all of the cannabinoids work together, that's where the magic happens.No, we did not pay Dr. Mechoulam to basically spread the word about exactly what we are doing here at 101 CBD, but we sure are excited that his research supports our focus on Raw CBDA and the whole plant Entourage Effect on our bodies. https://101cbd.org/2019/10/23/dr-rafael-mechoulam-focuses-research-on-cbda/Justin Benton - https://podconx.com/guests/justin-bentonJanet Benton-Gailard - askjanet.orghttps://101hempinnercircle.com/www.themiracleplant.orginfo@101CBD.org Join Our #HealTheWorlders Messenger Tribe at https://bit.ly/TheMiraclePlant_Messenger

Growing up, Len May struggled with focus and ultimately got diagnosed with ADD. To treat this, he was put on prescription medications that greatly dulled his emotions and feelings. One day before school, Len tried cannabis for the first time. He was amazed at the focus it gave him without all the negative side effects. Going forward, Len refused to take his prescription medication and chose to smoke cannabis instead.  This resulted in his parents kicking him out of the house, as they simply saw him as a “druggie”.    Through his journey, he found himself serving as the President of the Cannabis Action Network, where he met the first patient to ever be prescribed medical marijuana. Seeing it help her with her Glaucoma, and knowing it helped him with his ADD, Len became committed to educating others about the healing powers of cannabis.    One thing Len noticed was that different people, taking the same product, could have vastly different results. This led him to research how DNA and our genetics play a role in our cannabis experience. Now, as a Certified Medical Cannabis Specialist in Medicinal Genomics, Len has founded EndoCanna Health, a bio-science technology company.    What You'll Learn: Why genetics make a difference in the compounds you take. How different cannabinoids interact with the endocannabinoid system. Why low and slow dosing doesn't work.

In this episode, Robert Fojo welcomes guest Kevin McKernan, the Chief Science Officer and Founder of Medicinal Genomics, a life sciences and biotechnology company that distributes genetics-based platforms for quality and safety testing of legal cannabis. Mr. McKernan has over 25 years of experience with PCR and genomics technology. Among the topics discussed: the PCR test, how it is used, how and why it's unreliable for diagnosing COVID cases, why governments relied on it to diagnose COVID and drive public health responses during the pandemic, and whether a different testing approach could have been used and whether it would have made any difference.

Today I have a special treat. We are joined by KyAnn Anderson, the leader of the WH Wolfpack, named after Wim Hof, the cold plunge guru.  KyAnn started this group in November 2020 with her husband and another couple. By November, it had grown to 30 people.  Now, even in February, 20+ people show up to dip in the Atlantic Ocean north of Boston 2x a week.  What I appreciate about KyAnn is that she embodies one of the marketing archetypes I study: the Celebrator.  She loves to bring the good life, and she's a walking party wherever she goes. Just ask the Wolfpack members. She's a natural marketer, on Instagram with lots of jolly posts about in the ocean.  I've personally been inspired by KyAnn's fortitude and have been cold-dipping since June 2021.  2 days after I recorded this, I did one of the hardest things I've ever done: dipped in 40 degree water during an ice storm and low tide.  KyAnn's BackgroundKyAnn has been a registered Architect and LEED Accredited Professional since 2007. While remaining active in design, KyAnn's career focus shifted in 2016, when s he started utilizing her talents to increase health and wellness through helping others, following her battle with cancer.

Making Cannabis Personal, A Walk Through of the Endocanna Genetic Report. With Len May CEO of Endocanna Health. Part 2. Back on the show to run me through the wonderful Endocanna report is the cannabis expert himself Len May! Ever wondered why you have certain feelings/ reactions to cannabis? Well I now know.. why I chase cacao everyday.. and why THC is not something I should have pure...tune in to find out why. Catch this episode on YouTube to see Len take us through my Endocanna report and learn how it's interpreted. We cover:

By now you've probably seen the video where Reiner Fuellmich speaks with Dr. David Martin about his examination of patent records, which he says show that there is nothing "novel" about SARS-Cov-2, and that the genetic components that purportedly make it "novel" were in fact patented many years ago.Kevin McKernan, CSO of Medicinal Genomics, knows quite a lot about genetic science and  he also knows a thing or two about patent law -  in particular the patent law around genetic research. So today, I asked him for his take on what Dr. Martin said in that video, and in his accompanying dossier.In this episode, we hit some of the major points from Dr. Martin's presentation, and Kevin points out a few places where he thinks Dr. Martin gets it wrong. There's a lot more to dig into here though, and Kevin suggests a future conversation with himself and Dr. Martin - I'll keep everyone posted about that.We also talk about the legitimacy of patent law, and intellectual property itself, and about whether patent protection helps medical research to flourish, or serves to stifle it. The transcript of the video with Dr. Martin can be found here.Kevin's Twitter thread on some of the issues we discussed can be found here. And you can follow Kevin on Twitter here.

This episode's guest needs no introduction. Kevin McKernan of Medicinal Genomics is back to talk about Psilocybin and the mushrooms that create it. Kevin and the team at MGC have published a highly contiguous reference genome for Psilocybe cubensis, which some listeners may know is the species of mushroom often referred to as the magic mushroom. Kevin and the team have also sequenced several different mushroom strains to try and better understand genes of interest and pathways responsible for Psilocybin.  If you are new to Psilocybin and mushrooms, don't worry we cover the basics as well as new findings in our conversation, including:  Potential therapeutic applications for PsilocybinWhat is fueling the rapidly growing interest Psilocybin Psilocybin's path towards legalization  Other psychoactive compounds found in mushrooms How mushrooms are cultivated and bred and what that means for applying genomics The discovery that there is more than one way mushrooms synthesize Psilocybinand more Thanks to this Episode's Sponsor The Future of Psychedelic Medicine The Future of Psychedelic Medicine campaign highlights the R&D and innovations currently taking place within the psychedelic space to raise awareness of how psychedelic medicine could transform mental health treatment. The campaign also aims to highlight the potential psychedelic medicine has to help with a range of mental health conditions including depression, addiction, anxiety, PTSD, abuse disorders, OCD and address the stigma surrounding this type of treatment. Read it on July 22nd in New Scientist magazine and on healthawareness.co.uk.

Cannabis products are not “one size fits all.”  If you are interested in using cannabis or hemp related products or started using them but are not satisfied with the results, you came to the right podcast episode.  By now, you probably know that the hemp industry exploded across North America. Today, there is a good chance you live near a marijuana dispensary. You might already be using CBD products or THC products, or both.  But the question is - are you getting the right cannabis in the proper form that works well with your DNA?  As medical science learns more about cannabis and continues to make discoveries on the endocannabinoid system in the human body - the industry is adjusting, growing, and getting better at addressing specific needs. Consumers are starting to find cannabis product options that are more personalized and micro-focused on particular needs for individuals.  How this works is all tied to your DNA. The Awesome Health Podcast has the perfect guest to break this topic down: Len May - gifted at explaining the complexities of cannabis in concise, understandable ways.  Len is a pioneer of the medical cannabis industry, bringing more than 25 years of experience in the hemp industry. He is also an expert in genomics.  As the CEO and Co-Founder of EndoCanna Health, Len is a mover and shaker in the industry. He has held past positions as President of the Cannabis Action Network and Board Member and Lifetime Member of the California Cannabis Association. May is the current chair of the CBDIA science board and is a stakeholder in some of the industry's most iconic brands.  In this episode, he shares his expertise on the Endocannabinoid System and how genetic expression plays a role in human experiences. As a Certified Medical Cannabis Specialist in Medicinal Genomics, May has an in-depth knowledge of genomics, cannabinoids and terpenes, and their interaction with the endocannabinoid system. As well, he holds a Masters of Medical Cannabis and a certificate in Endocannabinoid Formulation from the Institute for the Advancement of Integrative Medicine. Len is also a published author (Making Cannabis Personal) and the host of the popular podcast “Everything is Personal.”    In this podcast, we cover:  Len's impressively compressed story of his rise to the top of the cannabis industry Len May's past run-ins with law enforcement as the industry changed A simple explanation of the endocannabinoid system in your body How to determine which cannabinoids are the right fit for your system The differences between CBD and THC How cannabinoids help the top bodybuilders in recovery How you can use your DNA profile (like 23&Me) to fit you with the perfect cannabis formula How other medications can affect your cannabis experience What are terpenes?  Why THC makes Wade ravenous  How the hemp industry “clones” plants for better quality What the future of the cannabis industry could look like   How Len discovered cannabis helps his ADD (Attention Deficit Disorder) When Len looks back on his childhood, he describes himself as a kid who would quickly drift off into daydreams while in class, occurring often enough that Len took many different types of prescription medications.  Len wasn't happy with any of them - they either didn't work or if they did help, the side effects made him feel like crap.  Until one day - Len was hanging out with some older kids, and one said, “Do you want to smoke a cigarette?” Len was excited as he felt like one of the cool kids. He took a drag from the cigarette, coughed, and he instantly knew that this was not the taste of a regular cigarette. He found out it was a rolled joint full of marijuana.  What changed Len's life was when he went back to class after smoking the marijuana, he noticed how he was able to focus much better on the schoolwork in front of him.  That is how cannabis became Len May's passion and go-to medicine. He got off all other meds and went to using cannabis only. Eventually, through struggles with his parents and later, his entrepreneurial efforts led Len to becoming a cannabis activist and business owner.  Hemp is a beautifully complex plant that still has a lot of uses to be discovered. Len says the hemp plant is “very complex” and has “somewhere around 500 different components identified. But we don't know what a lot of them are. We have identified somewhere around 114 different components with actual names, and we understand the effects.” In the hemp plant are the cannabinoids themselves: CBD, THC, THCV, CBDV, CBG, CBN, and other components like terpenes.  The plant itself has its genetics, which are cannabinoids expressed in the flowers' trichomes. The flower grows to a particular maturity and then begins expressing these cannabinoids. In the plant, they work synergistically together to create an effect. All of these start at the primary cannabinoid, the grandfather cannabinoid or mother cannabinoid, a CBG. Every single cannabinoid has an acid molecule.  Len and Wade get into the science behind cannabis and how it works in the human body. Science geeks will love this episode.  Tune in and hear how a simple DNA test could be the breakthrough you need to find the right match between your body and cannabis products. Len May's company - EndoCanna Health - can do the DNA test. Or, you can take your 23&Me DNA profile (or whatever company profile you used) and submit it for instant feedback.

Cannabis and Genetics, How to Individualise your Medicinal Cannabis with Len May CEO of Endocanna Health This podcast is a not miss episode!!! If you have ever had doubts or have been unsure about what cannabis has to offer then you need to listen to this! I chat with Len May expert in Medicinal Cannabis. We dive into the history, science and genetics surrounding this powerful plant cannabis. We cover:

  One thing you can be certain of with COVID-19 is that there is no shortage of controversy. Whether it is lockdowns, treatment, vaccines, or testing there have been volumes written about what should or should not happen. So today, we're going to learn about the most common test in the middle of the controversy - the PCR. What is PCR? "PCR (polymerase chain reaction) is a very sensitive test that can detect down to one molecule of DNA or RNA," said founder and CSO of Medicinal Genomics, Kevin McKernan. I contacted Kevin to help us get to the bottom of what PCR is, its limitations, how to interpret results, and what is the best path forward to use the test in the midst of a pandemic. PCR is an inexpensive, quick, and very sensitive test that amplifies the target proteins in the sample. By running multiple cycles, the target is doubled each time until it is detectable. Once a sample turns "positive," the test runs a few more cycles to verify the positive result. Usually, the PCR for SARS-CoV-2 (the virus responsible for COVID-19) returns to patients as either positive or negative. Why Does Cycle Time Matter? The number of times a sample has to be cycled through the doubling process is a way of determining not only the presence of a particular protein, but also its prevalence. Low cycle times suggest that there is a lot of the target while high cycle times suggest that there is not nearly as much. Since we are doing doubling you can imagine that for every 3.16 cycle times you have 10 times as much target substance. For today's SARS-CoV-2 PCR tests patients and clinicians are only given a qualitative answer of positive or negative. But, it is almost certainly true that the cycle time is important for understanding how infectious an individual is. The human body will shed inactive virus particles for sometimes months after an infection which can be detected by the PCR. This means that one could have a positive result even though it has been months since you could transmit the virus to others. As you can imagine, cycle times offer a window into how likely you are infectious (have enough targets suggesting an active infection) and perhaps we should insist the lab provide a qualitative and quantitative result for us. What are Other Concerns  About the PCR test? One of Kevin's concerns is that we are centralizing the testing of PCR by only having it occur in a few locations. This groups both symptomatic and asymptomatic people together causing a potential hot spot for transmitting the virus. Additionally, by centralizing and not allowing home testing, the costs for the PCR test are driven up. Finally, part of the quality control for PCR tests is to determine if the host DNA is acquired in the sample (this shows that the test was done properly) and there is not usually any way of knowing whether the DNA is being stored (something I talked to Twila Brase about before with regards to HIPAA). Kevin McKernan is the Chief Scientific Officer and Founder of Medicinal Genomics. He has years of expertise in PCR testing and provides insight into the PCR testing issues surrounding SARS-CoV-2. show notes Episode 116: Today's show Medicinal Genomics:  This is Kevin's company that he founded and serves as the CSO.

“The FDA and CBD have a tripolar relationship. Hemp CBD is not scheduled. CBD from cannabis is Schedule 1--dangerous. Epidolex is Schedule 5--safe.” In 10 years CBD (cannabidiol) has gone from being a relatively unknown substance to a ubiquitous health and wellness balm sold in gas stations, corner grocers' and thousands of websites. Because it is still unregulated in the US, manufacturers make all sorts of breathless claims about what it can do. It stops epileptic seizures! Eases your dog’s arthritis! Erases your frown lines! And while some of these claims may be true it’s no surprise that a CBD backlash has started. Perhaps you’ve read reports about the “toxicity” of CBD or its potential to “damage our livers in the same ways as alcohol and other drugs” or that it is dangerous to take with Tylenol. Or maybe you've read FDA iwarnings that it can cause suicidal thoughts or increase tendency toward depression, aggression or panic attacks. To set the record straight, I called Adrian Devitt Lee, Project CBD’s chief science writer and a PhD candidate in applied math at the University College in London. Adrian is the co-author of several articles in peer-reviewed journals (check out Is CBD Toxic to the Liver and CBD and Drug Interactions) and has been involved in cannabinoid research since 2011 at California Pacific Medical Center, Medicinal Genomics, and CannaCraft. What you’ll hear in this interview might shock you but likely won’t surprise you. PS. As listeners to this podcast know, old myths about cannabis (and new myths about CBD) take on a life of their own. For context on how some myths die hard I’m including this article by the always brilliant Dr. Peter Attia on monosodium glutamate (MSG). Even though MSG has been proven safe for 60 years, it’s still falsely accused of causing “Chinese Restaurant Syndrome.” Attia traces the origin of the myth and how it continues to trump scientific evidence. Cannabis has been used for over 5,000 years with no serious harms ever reported yet the myths keep coming.

I speak with Kevin McKernan about the report he co-authored calling for the retraction of the paper upon which much of the world's Covid-19 PCR testing is based. Kevin also thanks you guys–my listeners–for possibly helping to get the attention of some of those who are starting to reverse course on the lockdowns (and the badly flawed testing they are based on). So keep it up!The Corman-Drosten Review Report (with comments) is here. "Detection of 2019 novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV) by real-time RT-PCR", by Corman, Drosten, et al, is here.The five other papers that Kevin mentions are:Jung, et al.Gand, et al.

I speak with founder and CSO of Medicinal Genomics, Kevin McKernan, about some of the problems with PCR testing, as well as some of the incentives to produce high positive test numbers, both of which are making it difficult to get a meaningful picture of SARS-Cov2 infections and cases.You can find Kevin on Twitter, and he recently Tweeted about some of these issues here.The paper on molecular mimicry that he mentions is here.The CMS document that spells out penalties for failure to report positive test results is here (p.5)And the FDA's Emergency Use Authorization summary for the Roche qPCR test is here.My previous episodes with Kevin are here and here.

CSO of Medicinal Genomics, Kevin McKernan, explains why Covid-19 may have been with us for much longer than we've thought; how the desire for information is pushing people to bypass peer review - maybe for something better, and why looking to a vaccine as a solution is a terrible idea.Links from the discussion:Preprint site, BioRxivPreprint site, MedRxivNextstrainThe Braun, et al paper he mentionsAnd you can find Kevin at:Medicinal GenomicsKevin McKernan on TwitterKevin McKernan on FacebookPrevious podcast episode with Kevin discussing the problems with peer review and a revolutionary solution, is here.

In this episode of CannMed Coffee Talk we talk with Martin A. Lee, the co-founder and director of Project CBD. In addition to creating content for the Project CBD website and speaking at conferences around the globe, Martin has authored several books, including Smoke Signals: A Social History of Marijuana–Medical, Recreational and Scientific. In fact, we have a copy in our Medicinal Genomics office.    Martin and I discussed the topic everyone is talking about, COVID-19. Martin has reviewed the scientific literature to find out whether CBD can calm the cytokine storm that the COVID virus can set off, whether CBD has anti-viral properties, and if cannabis is an immune system booster, suppressant, or both. As you can imagine, with a virus as new and novel as COVID-19 and a federal ban on cannabis, the research is far from conclusive. But I think you will see there is some potential and some areas that merit future research. Who knows, maybe we will see some compelling data at a future CannMed event.   Click the player below to listen, and thanks to our sponsor, Project CBD!

On this episode of The Tatiana Show,  Tatiana and Josh speak with our returning guest, Kevin McKernan, about how he combatted hacked servers and secured his Medicinal Cannabis Genomics data using encrypted blockchain technology. These so-called “Honey Pot” data servers were trusted until they implemented their premeditated plan to steal their customers data in order to use it for competitive advantage. We also hear more about the newest science behind Cannabis Genetics - such as a brewing technique that integrates cannabis within a yeast strain. Stay tuned to learn the surprising bit about how psychoactive compounds are made - not grown organically. McKernan is an expert in the field of Cannabis Genomics and we are excited to share his amazing journey through one of the fastest-growing industries with our listeners. As always, thank you to our sponsors Vaultoro and SALT Lending.  Cheers!

Highlights include: • Sequencing the cannabis genome • The process of submitting a project for funding from the Dash DAO • The banking crisis in the cannabis industry • Medical marijuana and CBD oil • Obstacles posed to the cannabis industry by the US government • Will the Trump administration legalize cannabis? • How blockchain can become part of popular culture • Reclaiming the mainstream narrative of bitcoin and blockchain technology • The recent Facebook purge and alternative social media platforms We’re moving to a new audio format! While I enjoy seeing the lovely faces of all my guests, we are trying some new things for The Tatiana Show. Audio-only enables me to work with less bandwidth while I’m recording shows on the road, and makes for easier editing. This means listeners will get more regular, top quality episodes! Thank you always to The Tatiana Show sponsors: Stamps.com, The Bitcoin CPA, CryptoCompare, and my marketing company, Crypto Media Hub. Kevin Mckernan kicks off this episode and treats us to his extraordinary range of knowledge and experiences from the cannabis and cryptocurrency spaces. Kevin has spent his career researching and developing various DNA sequencing technologies in both the research and clinical industries. He is the CSO and Founder of Medicinal Genomics. Kevin explains how he obtained funding for his cannabis genome sequencing project from the Dash DAO. For people who don’t know, Dash is a cryptocurrency that not only uses its fees to pay miners, like Bitcoin does, but also puts tokens from its fees into a treasury. People can then propose projects to Dash stakeholders and receive money from that fund. The Patent and Trade Office (PTO) has posed various obstacles to the cannabis industry, particularly through a controversial and overly broad patent issued in 2015, which Kevin helped to oppose. We also discuss the banking crisis in cannabis and in general how governments have stifled cannabis research and innovation for generations. Mckernan explains that “through prohibition, everyone started breeding for high THC, and that has come at the cost of all the other cannabinoids not being made” (20:23). There are rarer cannabinoids, with more therapeutic effects. Kevin and his team targeted one of those rarer strains to sequence for their Dash project. We also delve into some examples of diseases and ailments that can be aided by cannabis and CBD oils. At 24:00, Kevin treats us to a brief world history of cannabis, discussing how different strains originated in different parts of the world. The earliest cannabis was present 20 million years ago in the Hindu Kush mountain range. Ancient people grew hemp for its fibers, which were useful for making sails for their ships. Do you think the Trump administration will legalize marijuana? We discuss how new cannabis industries have affected the American economy and how Canada’s recent legalization of cannabis could force the Trump administration’s hand in U.S. policy-making (34:00). Kevin’s event is Cannmed, currently taking place at UCLA this week. Next we’re joined by Naomi Brockwell (37:30). Naomi is a film and television producer for John Stossel; she also hosts her own Youtube show on blockchain, bitcoin, and technology. Her newest project is a crypto thriller noir series called Hard Fork. She discovered the project through Steemit, where she connected with Doug Karr, an alumni of the Sundance festival, and Christopher James Baker (of the television series, Ozarks) as they were putting together this blockchain sci fi thriller. Like Kevin McKernan, they also received funding from the Dash DAO, and they’ve raised their first million dollars. The show is still in development. They will go into production and are hoping for a release at the end of 2019. Follow Naomi on social media (@NaomiBrockwell) or check out hardforkentertainment.io to stay updated. Naomi says of the Hard Fork series: “I wanted to get involved because all you hear about with crypto is the negative. ‘Oh it’s a bubble. Everyone in crypto is a loser.’ The mainstream media just talks about the drug dealers and money launderers and how they’re awful. But blockchain is the most empowering technology we’ve seen in the last hundred years. This is a way to decentralize trust. This is a way to completely revolutionize the traditional financial sector. Please do not discount this. Let’s talk about all the ways that this can change lives, how this can give people back more freedom, more financial autonomy. So I think getting in control of that narrative and creating a mainstream-audience-accessible series that actually looks at the way this can be a really empowering tech is what drew me to the project.” Cheers to that! Naomi came to cryptocurrency from a background in Austrian economics, in which economists like F.A. Hayek were eerily prescient about cryptocurrency. Speaking of economics, I’ll be seeing Naomi next on the Contra Cruise! Comment below if you’ll be there. Josh is missing out, but he’s helping with the Bitcoin Lightning Network Hack Day in New York. (56:00) Finally, we discuss Steemit, alternative social media, the recent Facebook purge of many libertarian pages and outlets, and how other activists have struggled with banning on various platforms. Naomi is a big fan of BitChute, an alternative to Youtube. If you’re interested in more on these topics, check out another recent episode of The Tatiana Show, in which I interviewed Bill Ottman of Minds.com and Matt Asher of BeforeTheBan.com.

Todays show is another episode for The Bloomber Business Radio Network recorded at BlockShow 2018 in Las Vegas. In the first segment we're joined by crypto naysayer Jason Bloomberg (no relation to the network) who routinely writes critical articles on crypto currency for Forbes Magazine. An interesting but somewhat odd perspective. Transferred intent comes to mind on his perspective. Then Paul Rogers a Hemp entrepreneur of PrimeMyBody.com and Kevin Mckernan of Medicinal Genomics share their thoughts on the subject as well as where they see the intersection of crypto and cannabis/hemp. In the final segment we're honored to have Bitcoin Pioneer Bobby Lee of BTCC to get his take on the current state of crypto currency.

“Everyone probably hears online that no one ever dies from cannabis, but there have been cases of people dying from what grows on cannabis,” says Kevin McKernan, who founded Medicinal Genomics in 2011 with the goal of sequencing the cannabis genome. In doing so, he quickly recognized that there were microbes on the plant that needed to be screened for. Since then, Medicinal Genomics has been developing quantitative PCR tools that use DNA to measure microbial risks in a way that traditional methods have been unable. So, what's wrong with the traditional Petri dish method, which is the primary method used in the food industry today? For one, we don't know how to culture about 99 percent of the microbes that exist; this is problematic for the Petri dish method as it relies fundamentally on culturing microbes. In addition, many of the microbes that are most harmful do not grow in large quantities, making it nearly impossible to identify or quantify colonies of microbes via culture techniques. To address these issues, McKernan believes that species-specific testing is needed, which can only be done using DNA-based quantitative PCR. Medicinal Genomics also sequences cannabis genomes outside of the microbiome, which is helping breeders to not only identify plants that are optimal for breeding, but to also prove that a plant existed at a particular time, thereby protecting themselves against cannabis patents that might emerge in the future. Medicinal Genomics is protecting breeders in this way by hashing and stashing cannabis genomes on the Dash blockchain. To learn more, visit medicinalgenomics.com.
