Most people think the greatest danger on Mount Everest is the mountain itself. But beginning in 2018, investigators uncovered an alleged $20 million Everest helicopter rescue fraud that exploited trekkers through unnecessary evacuations, forged medical records, and fraudulent insurance claims. By 2026, Nepal's Central Investigation Bureau had filed sweeping criminal charges, exposing one of the biggest scandals in Everest's history. In this episode of Disaster Strikes, Kaycee McIntosh and Julie Henningsen examine how the scheme allegedly operated, why altitude makes trekkers especially vulnerable to manipulation, and how guides, helicopter companies, hospitals, and doctors became caught up in an investigation that shook Nepal's mountaineering industry. The hosts also separate verified facts from sensational headlines, including what investigators actually concluded about the widely reported poisoning allegations. Whether you're planning an Everest Base Camp trek, dreaming of climbing Mount Everest, or simply fascinated by survival stories, this episode explains how the fraud unfolded, why it damaged trust throughout the Himalayas, and what every trekker should know before accepting a helicopter evacuation.

While isolated references to baking soda appear in the charge sheet, investigators did not conclude that poisoning was used as a widespread tactic. Media reports describing rat droppings or uncooked chicken were not included as confirmed findings in the formal 748-page charge sheet reviewed by Climbing Magazine. This episode distinguishes verified investigative findings from unconfirmed claims. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

The Inheritance: Poisoned Fruit of JFK's AssassinationChristopher Fulton's journey began with the death of Evelyn Lincoln, late secretary to President John F. Kennedy. Through Lincoln, crucial evidence ended up in Christopher's hands—evidence that was going to be used to facilitate a new future for America. But the U.S. government's position was clear: that evidence had to be confiscated and classified, and the truth hidden away from the public. Christopher was sent to federal prison for years under a sealed warrant and indictment. The Inheritance, Christopher's personal narrative, shares insider information from his encounters with the Russian Government, President Ronald Reagan, Donald Trump, the Clinton White House, the U.S. Justice Department, the Secret Service, and the Kennedy family themselves. It reveals the true intentions of Evelyn Lincoln and her secret promise to Robert Kennedy—and Christopher's secret promise to John F. Kennedy Jr. The Inheritance explodes with history-changing information and answers the questions Americans are still asking, while pulling them through a gauntlet of some of the worst prisons this country has to offer. This book thrillingly exposes the reality of American power, and sheds light on the dark corners of current corruption within the executive branch and the justice and prison systems.https://amzn.to/44xqWOjBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-opperman-report--1198501/support.

Flexner's Poisoned Empire and the Rockefeller Medical Cartel! Today we are going nuclear on the biggest heist in American history — bigger than Standard Oil, bigger than the Federal Reserve, bigger than any election scandal you've ever heard. We're talking the Rockefeller medical cartel, the Flexner Report takeover, how they turned your body into a lifelong subscription service for poison pills, why natural remedies got demonized like they were the enemy of the state, and why this whole rigged game smells like inter-party shenanigans from top to bottom.

Greg Kelly explores a series of political conspiracies and personal risks surrounding Donald Trump and his allies, suggesting that the former president's legal challenges are the result of coercive prosecutorial tactics and systemic corruption. The narrative transitions into a speculative discussion on Russian state-sponsored poisoning, where Kelly links the historical physical symptoms of foreign leaders to the mysterious health issues recently faced by Senator Lindsey Graham.

Opie, Ron the Waiter & Tony P go full chaos mode! First, a raging Yellowstone bull bison in rut mode turns a 65-year-old grandpa (and his grandson) into a viral disaster — dude gets launched EIGHT FEET in the air while filming TikTok instead of running. Opie's brutal take: ‘People think nature is a damn petting zoo and phones killed our survival instincts.' 2,000-pound tank vs. human ego = ouch. Then Lindsey Graham passes at 71 after sudden illness — from calling Trump a ‘race-baiting xenophobe' to his #1 Senate defender and golf buddy overnight. Political genius or the ultimate chameleon? What happens to his seat now? AND… the guys dive into Flat Earth blowing up again — is phone addiction + conspiracy brain turning everyone into tinfoil warriors, or is something actually up? Wild debates, zero filter, and nonstop laughs. This episode is pure Opie Radio rocket fuel. Don't miss it!

Picher, Oklahoma, was once one of the richest mining towns in America. It supplied the lead and zinc that helped win two world wars and made fortunes almost overnight. But beneath the prosperity, the town was slowly poisoning itself. Toxic chat piles, rivers that ran orange with acid, collapsing mine shafts, and children suffering from lead poisoning eventually turned Picher into the most contaminated ghost town in the United States. Along the way came stories of Tommyknockers, phantom mine cages, the Hornet Spooklight, and a pair of missing girls whose remains may still lie hidden beneath the flooded mines. Tonight, we explore the rise, fall, and haunting legacy of the town that ate itself.

From the explosion of AI data centers to the increasing number of toxic spills, explosions, and industrial disasters happening across the country, corporations and the government are turning the USA into one giant "sacrifice zone." In "red" states and "blue" states, in rural areas and urban areas, poor and working people are suffering the toxic effects of a crisis that has resulted from decades of deregulation, corporate-capture of government, and the protection of private profits over the lives and health of the public. No one is coming to save us, and nothing is going to change unless residents of different sacrifice zones and poisoned communities, workers and unions on the frontlines of the industries poisoning us, environmental justice groups, community and faith organizations, scientists, journalists, and all others who have a stake in this fight start coming together, working together, and fighting back together. In this special panel discussion, recorded at the 2026 Railroad Workers United convention in Chicago, Illinois, we speak with a panel of guests who are part of a new coalition that is doing just that. Panelists include: Jeff Kurtz, a retired locomotive engineer, union officer, and Railroad Workers United member who also served as a state representative in the Iowa House of Representatives; Jami Wallace, a displaced resident of East Palestine, Ohio, and founder of the Chemically Impacted Communities Coalition (CICC); Dr. Nicole Fabricant, a professor of anthropology at Towson University and scholar-activist who has been working with chemically impacted communities in South Baltimore, Maryland, for 15 years; Scott Smith, independent testing expert and founder of the Blue Shirt Justice League; and Lesley Pacey, Senior Environmental Officer at the Government Accountability Project.

Since the Hamas attacks on Israel in October 2023, the Everything Leftist Omnicause has turned its Eye of Sauron toward aggressive support for Palestinian nationalism—support for Palestinian nationalism that all too frequently crosses the line from a political position to antipathy towards American Jews. Nowhere has the latter been more visible than on the most […]

281: Laura Orlando explains what happens when industrial waste and human waste are routed into the same sewage system and repackaged to be sold as something safe - valuable even, for improving farmland. She explains how sludge spreading has poisoned farms, why Maine became a national beacon by banning its application, and what it will take to stop sewage sludge from becoming an even bigger crisis for farmers, soil, water, and public health. https://realorganicproject.org/laura-orlando-pfas-sewage-sludge-poisoned-farms The Real Organic Podcast is hosted by Dave Chapman and Linley Dixon, engineered by Brandon StCyr, and edited and produced by Jenny Prince. The Real Organic Project is a farmer-led movement working towards certifying 1,000 farms across the United States. Our add-on food label distinguishes soil-grown fruits and vegetables from hydroponically-raised produce, and pasture-raised meat, milk, and eggs from products harvested from animals in horrific confinement (CAFOs - confined animal feeding operations). To find a Real Organic farm near you, please visit: https://www.realorganicproject.org/directory We believe that the organic standards, with their focus on soil health, biodiversity, and animal welfare were written as they should be, but that the current lack of enforcement of those standards is jeopardizing the ability for small farms who adhere to the law to stay in business. The lack of enforcement is also jeopardizing the overall health of the customers who support the organic movement; customers who are not getting what they pay for at market but still paying a premium price. And the lack of enforcement is jeopardizing the very cycles (water, air, nutrients) that Earth relies upon to provide us all with a place to live, by pushing extractive, chemical agriculture to the forefront.

Since the Hamas attacks on Israel in October 2023, the Everything Leftist Omnicause has turned its Eye of Sauron toward aggressive support for Palestinian nationalism—support for Palestinian nationalism that all too frequently crosses the line from a political position to antipathy towards American Jews. Nowhere has the latter been more visible than on the most elite college campuses, where administrations that have been perfectly happy to suppress speech they didn't like about mainstream political issues have allowed Palestinian nationalist demonstrators to impose their wills on campus. Today's guest used her position to ask the presidents of three of America's most prestigious universities how that came to be; the resulting incoherent responses started a firestorm that culminated in her new book, Poisoned Ivies: The Inside Account of the Academic and Moral Rot at America's Elite Universities. Joining us today to discuss higher education and the rot within it is U.S. Representative Elise Stefanik of New York.Poisoned Ivies: The Inside Account of the Academic and Moral Rot at America's Elite UniversitiesRep.

In this episode of What We Can't Not Talk About, Dr. Kristin Collier of the University of Michigan joins us to discuss a side of medicine often forgotten—considering the doctors and patients as both body and soul—and the implications this has on the field of medicine. Dr. Collier also discusses the rise of physician-assisted suicide in the West, and how this changes the relationship between doctor and patient.

In this episode of Foreign Podicy, host Cliff May sits down with Congresswoman Elise Stefanik — once the youngest woman ever elected to the House and its highest-ranking female member — to discuss her new book, Poisoned Ivies: The Inside Account of the Academic and Moral Rot at America's Elite Universities. Stefanik gained national attention after her landmark December 2023 congressional hearing, where she pressed the presidents of Harvard, Penn, and MIT on whether calls for the genocide of Jews violated their campus policies —and none would give a clear answer.Joining the conversation is Brandy Shufutinsky, director of FDD's Program on Education and National Security, who brings her expertise in international and multicultural education to examine the deeper implications of ideological bias and double standards at America's most prestigious institutions. Tune in for a frank discussion on antisemitism, academic freedom, and the urgent need to reform elite higher education.

Congresswoman Elise Stefanik joins Karol Markowicz to discuss her bestselling new book, Poisoned Ivy, and the growing controversy surrounding America's elite universities. Stefanik reflects on the congressional hearing that sparked national debate over campus anti-Semitism, the fallout from her viral exchange with former Harvard president Claudine Gay, and why she believes higher education has strayed from its founding mission. The conversation explores the rise of ideological activism on college campuses, the challenges facing students and parents navigating the admissions process, and the institutions Stefanik believes are getting it right. She also shares her concerns about the growing influence of socialism, her optimism for American innovation, and why reading remains one of the most important habits for personal growth and leadership.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode of xMonks Drive, host Gaurav Arora sits down with Kaamya Karthikeyan — India's youngest female Everester, world record holder, and one of the most extraordinary young athletes in the world — for a rare long-form conversation about what it really takes to push past the limits of human endurance, again and again, from the time she was seven years old.Kaamya Karthikeyan became the youngest female in the world to complete the Seven Summits — climbing the highest mountain on every continent — at the age of 17. She has summited Mount Everest, Mount Vinson in Antarctica, Mount Denali in North America, Mount Aconcagua in South America, Mount Kilimanjaro in Africa, Mount Elbrus in Europe, and Mount Kosciuszko in Australia. She has also skied 111 kilometres to the Geographic South Pole as part of the Last Degree expedition, becoming the youngest Indian and one of the youngest women in the world to do so. She is currently 18 years old and studying engineering at Shiv Nadar University. She is also a competitive ski mountaineer who has represented India at the Asian Championships and the Youth World Cup, and won medals at the Khelo India Winter Games and the National Championships. Ski mountaineering recently became an Olympic sport at the Milano Cortina Winter Olympics.In this episode Kaamya talks about her Everest summit push — starting from Camp 4 in the middle of the night after 250 climbers had turned back, navigating whiteout conditions on the Lhotse Face, losing her expedition mitten at 8000 metres above sea level, and what her Sherpa did in that moment that she will never forget. She talks about skiing alone to the South Pole for 10 days with no landmarks, getting frostbite, being told by doctors to go home, and walking 8 hours with no guarantee she would be allowed to continue. She talks about the avalanche on Mount Trishul in Uttarakhand in 2021 that took the lives of six people she was close to, and how she processed that loss and went back to the mountains seven months later for the Denali expedition. She talks about the controversy around evacuation practices currently affecting the Himalayan climbing community and what it is doing to the relationship between climbers and the Sherpa community.This episode is essential viewing for anyone interested in mountaineering, Everest, high altitude climbing, the Seven Summits, the Explorers Grand Slam, polar expeditions, the South Pole, ski mountaineering, adventure sports in India, mental strength, resilience, overcoming fear, dealing with loss, and the human capacity to keep going when everything says stop.Kaamya Karthikeyan's story is one of the most remarkable sporting and human stories to come out of India in recent years. She started trekking at age 7 in Uttarakhand, summited her first 6000 metre peak at age 9 on Stok Kangri in Ladakh, trekked to Everest Base Camp at age 9, summited Kilimanjaro at age 10, Elbrus at age 11, Aconcagua at age 12 becoming the youngest girl in the world at the time, Denali at age 14, Everest at age 16 becoming the youngest Indian and one of the youngest women in the world to summit from the Nepal side, Vinson Massif in Antarctica at age 17 completing the Seven Summits, and skied to the South Pole at age 17. Prime Minister Narendra Modi spoke about her on Mann Ki Baat when she was 12 years old. She has won the Pradhan Mantri Rashtriya Bal Puraskar. She has been supported by the Tata Steel Adventure Foundation and the Reliance Foundation. Only the North Pole expedition remains before she completes the full Explorers Grand Slam.

In early June in Tudor England, one woman was already up before sunrise. She had roughly four months to produce everything her household needed to survive the next twelve months. Medicine. Preserves. Cosmetics. Cleaning products. The entire household pharmacy. All of it, from scratch, while the plants were available. She had no name in the history books. But without her, the household didn't make it through winter. We follow a Tudor stillroom mistress through a day at the start of summer, from the early morning herb harvest before the dew burns off, through the hours of distilling rose water and filling the medicine chest, all the way to the evening ledger by candlelight. Along the way we get into the dissolution of the monasteries and why it made her job dramatically higher stakes, the cosmetics she was producing that were slowly poisoning the people she was trying to care for.

Tim "Doc" Anderson was the quintessential "good guy" in a bad business. A Golden Gloves champion with a degree in kinesiology, Tim was a disciplined athlete who never touched drugs or alcohol. But when he crossed paths with Rick "Elvis" Parker - a flamboyant, cocaine-fueled promoter - Tim was pulled into a world of fixed fights, shadow contracts, and a literal "toxic" betrayal. If anyone wants to help Tim with his case, they can reach out to Florida's governor Ron DeSantis and request that Anderson's case be heard before the Clemency Board at GovernorRon.Desantis@eog.myflorida.com. --For early, ad free episodes and monthly exclusive bonus content, join our Patreon!

As Secretary of HHS, RFK Jr. has called out perilous warnings: from chem trails and deadly vaccines to poisoned tap water, toxic foods, harmful additives, and ultimately a toxic burden touching nearly every aspect of life, impacting hundreds of millions in America and billions worldwide, forcing a long-overdue conversation about health, accountability, and what comes next.

Newt talks with Congresswoman Elise Stefanik (NY-21st), Chairwoman of the House Republican Leadership, about her new book, “Poisoned Ivies: The Inside Account of the Academic and Moral Rot at America’s Elite Universities.” They discuss how America’s elite universities, once proud symbols of academic excellence, have become centers of far-left indoctrination and division. Stefanik traces her own political and professional trajectory, from volunteering for the New York Republican State Committee at age 14 and ultimately running as a 28-year-old underdog who has become a long-serving New York Republican in Congress. Drawing on her experience as a Harvard alumna, Stefanik argues that many elite universities have shifted from liberal leaning but pluralistic to ideologically lopsided, with a dramatic imbalance between Democratic and Republican faculty and a growing culture of political indoctrination over academic rigor. Stefanik’s participation in the hearing with university presidents was a historic turning point in the national debate over higher education. She concludes by expressing her hope, both as a policymaker and as a parent, that this earthquake in public awareness will help restore American universities to global excellence.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In Part Two of Episode 145, investigative journalists Mandy Matney and ⁠Liz Farrell⁠ dig into two stories about power, accountability, and the systems that protect the wrong people.  First, they take you inside the April 21 Horry County Council meeting, where former officer Kevin Suggs and Jennifer Spivey Foley asked council members to return law enforcement authority to a sheriff who answers to voters — and where Chairman Johnny Gardner compared a historically corrupt police department to… litter on Highway 501…? Then (21:00), they unpack the bombshell Harris County prosecutors dropped in the Christa Bauer Gilley case: alleged affairs, an alleged Reddit post seeking a college-age M4F, DDF, FWB hookup, alleged plans to flee to Mexico, alleged homophobic slurs hurled at his own child, and a chilling theory from prosecutors that Lee Gilley may have tried to poison Christa months before her death. Christa's medical and autopsy records may be the key to everything at the June trial and we plan to be there exposing all we can to sunlight.  Let's Dive in…
