AI-Assisted Episode Disclaimer: Please note: This episode is AI-assisted. The conversation you are about to hear occurred LIVE and in real-time between Kurt and Dane. They used Gemini Notebook artificial intelligence as a powerful tool to strip away the noise, clarify their thoughts, and amplify their message. Their goal is to deliver a highly motivational and inspirational dialogue that drives home their ultimate, unwavering mission: searching for TRUTH in a world full of lies. Welcome to a groundbreaking journey designed to awaken your mind, stir your soul, and challenge everything you think you know about the world around you. In Episode 75 of Truth in the Digital Hall of Mirrors, Kurt and Dane invite you to step directly into the information war, break through the glass of deception, and claim sovereignty over your own perception. 1. Shattering the Consensus: The Nepal Flood & The Miniature Threat We begin this episode by shattering the glass of our digital consensus. When a catastrophic flood recently struck Nepal, the official mainstream narrative offered a tragic but straightforward natural disaster sequence—a glacier-melt landslide. But Dane exposes a jarring alternative: footage showing an F-16 fighter jet triggering an explosion at the base of a dam, complete with embedded AI watermarks and circulating online months before the physical disaster even took place. Even more profoundly, Kurt and Dane dive into the stunning threat of physical miniature city models. These are not computer graphics; they are hand-painted, physically constructed clay and foam cities flooded with actual water, shot from angles that bypass every digital defense mechanism our brains have built to spot AI. When pixels are simply recording a physical lie, traditional forensics become useless, and we realize our biological senses are actively being used against us to induce cognitive whiplash. 2. The Massive Supercomputers & The Silent Observers This episode uncovers how deeply information power is being consolidated into unaccountable corporate and surveillance black boxes. Kurt and Dane take us inside massive data centers housing up to 200,000 advanced GPUs designed to ingest, digitize, and potentially rewrite global history, while physical analog books and historical maps are systematically shredded and destroyed. Meanwhile, our present-day physical movements are quietly captured in real-time. From automated license plate readers tracking remote wilderness roads in the middle of nowhere, to silent interceptor units mimicking cellular signals from the back of unmarked utility vehicles to harvest private communications without a warrant, the dragnet of total ambient surveillance continues to expand. 3. Activating the Sherlock Holmes Mindset How do you survive a world where seeing is no longer proof of reality? Kurt and Dane's answer is a powerful call to action: you must cultivate a Sherlock Holmes attitude. This is not cynicism; it is a hyper-vigilant rewiring of how you interact with incoming data, stripping narratives to their base components and demanding truth. It means choosing to protect your "data diet" through tightly closed-loop knowledge bases rather than drinking from the poisoned well of the open internet. 4. Becoming the Vigilant Remnant: Gideon's 300 To stand tall in these chaotic times—spiritually described as the "days of Noah"—we must learn from the ancient wisdom of Gideon's army. Out of 22,000 soldiers, only 300 alert warriors were chosen. Why? Because while the masses fell to their knees to blindly lap up the water, these 300 crouched down, scooped the water to their lips, and kept their eyes firmly fixed on the horizon, scanning for danger. In a world filled with digital distractions, we are called to be those 300 - the Gideon 300 - to be the vigilant remnant. We must consume what we need to survive, but refuse to do so blindly. 5. Seeing is Not Believing—Believing is Seeing In the ultimate paradigm shift, Kurt reminds us of the profound biblical truth - John 11:40: "Did I not tell you that if you believed you would see?". In this digital hall of mirrors, demanding visual proof is a trap because pixels and models can lie. Our survival relies on an unwavering faith that operates independently of what our physical eyes are shown. Ultimately, Kurt and Dane remind us that the absolute best way to fight the information war is to remember where true reality lies: not in a 200,000-GPU supercomputer or on a glowing screen, but in the analog, undigitizable connections with the people standing right in front of us, the dirt beneath our feet, and the actual sky above our heads. It's time to go outside, breathe the real air, and stand guard like the remnant. Are you ready to break the mirrors and find the truth? Tune in to and download your own copy of our Episode 75 now.

Ep. 241 | A deeply engaging conversation in which Alexander Love, adult development expert and coach, and author of the soon-to-be-published trilogy Evolutionary Gestures, introduces us to the post-tragic perspective, with all of its potential to nourish, ground, and open us to a world of possibilities. Alexander explains that post-tragic is not a developmental stage per se, but a dimension available to anyone willing to do the work. It's part of a triad—pre-tragic innocence, tragic disillusionment, and post-tragic possibilities—encountered in every wisdom tradition, the hero's journey, and every good story. Post-tragic is not about leaving the tragedy (trauma, pain, loss) behind, but about turning toward it and dropping into a dimension of being that can interface with it in a new way, from a place that isn't divided or broken. It's also about asking, what happens next, after the tragedy? How does the story proceed?Shattering our certainty, a tragic event in our lives makes our world more diaphanous, Alexander continues, opening the way for us to lean further into the mystery. Here we encounter the vastness of possibility, the mystery being the first imagined wholeness, the seed of all potentiality, and we begin to see the sacred and the beauty in everything. Though the healing notion of facing our trauma and working through it is not new, Alexander's pre-tragic, tragic, and post-tragic framework (deeply informed by his own experience) is compelling. With it, he has painted in the entire landscape around the core tragedy or trauma, giving us the full picture, the before and after, and connected us with a dimension of compassion and forgiveness that is liberating and full of promise. A wise, gentle, intense, warm, humble conversation. Recorded April 23, 2026.“It's not forgive and forget… It's remember deeply.

https://wels2.blob.core.windows.net/tmb-ehv/03-0824db.mp3 Listen to Bible reading Through My Bible Yr 03 – August 24 Psalm 28 – 29 Psalm 28 My Rock Heading By David. Protect Me From the Wicked 1 O Lord, I keep calling to you. My Rock, do not be deaf to me. If you remain silent to me, I will become like those who go down to the pit. 2 Hear the sound of my plea for mercy when I cry out to you, when I lift up my hands toward your most holy sanctuary. 3 Do not drag me away with the wicked, with those evildoers. They speak peace to their neighbors but hide evil in their hearts. Punish the Wicked 4 Give to them what they have done to others. According to their evil actions, according to the deeds of their hands, punish them. Repay to them what they deserve. 5 Because they do not recognize the works of the Lord or the deeds of his hands, he will tear them down and not build them up. Then I Will Praise You 6 Blessed be the Lord, because he has heard the sound of my plea for mercy. 7 The Lord is my strength and my shield. In him my heart trusts, and I am helped. My heart also celebrates. With my song I will give thanks to him. 8 The Lord is their strength. He is a stronghold of salvation for his anointed king. 9 Save your people, and bless the people that belong to you. Shepherd them, and carry them forever. Psalm 29 The God of Glory Thunders Heading A psalm by David. The God of Glory Thunders 1 Ascribe to the Lord, you sons of God, [1] Ascribe to the Lord glory and strength. 2 Ascribe to the Lord the glory of his name. Bow down to the Lord in the splendor of holiness. 3 The voice of the Lord is heard over the waters. The God of glory thunders. The Lord thunders above the mighty waters. 4 The voice of the Lord thunders in power. The voice of the Lord thunders in majesty. 5 The voice of the Lord breaks the cedars. The Lord shatters the cedars of Lebanon. 6 He makes Mount Lebanon skip like a calf. Sirion [2] skips like a young wild ox. 7 The voice of the Lord slashes with flashes of fire. 8 The voice of the Lord shakes the wilderness. The Lord shakes the Wilderness of Kadesh. 9 The voice of the Lord destroys the oaks [3] and strips the forests bare. So in his temple they all say, “Glory!” 10 The Lord is seated over the flood. The Lord is seated as King forever. 11 The Lord gives strength to his people. The Lord blesses his people with peace. Footnotes Psalm 29:1 In this verse the Hebrew word translated God is elim rather than the usual elohim. Elim could also be translated mighty ones or heavenly beings. It seems to refer to the angels. Psalm 29:6 Sirion and Mount Lebanon are names for Mount Hermon. Psalm 29:9 Or makes the deer give birth. The Hebrew text provides vowels for the word as if it were the word for deer, rather than the word for oaks. Shattering oaks seems to fit the context and the parallelism better than makes the deer give birth. The Holy Bible, Evangelical Heritage Version®, EHV®, © 2019 Wartburg Project, Inc.

Welcome back to another raw, unfiltered Antipasti double-header of The Straight Dope Show (Episodes 376 & 377)! In this heavy-hitting serving, hosts El Uno and TraB the Wonder take a microscope to the modern American mindset, starting with a passionate breakdown of work ethic and why society has normalized giving 60% instead of striving for greatness.

Later in the episode, El Uno and TraB dismantle the "Needs vs. Wants" matrix driven by modern capitalism, explaining why you can't trust algorithms or fake online reviews to tell you what's actually good (highlighted by a hilarious debate on finding the best cheese pizza). Finally, they wrap up the show by giving massive respect to Method Man for defending his daughter from online disrespect, before exposing the music industry's multi-million dollar marketing illusion that force-feeds artists to the masses.

Are you worried that your best performances are behind you? Do you ever step up to the blocks—or walk into a room—and feel entirely underestimated because of your age or size? Or worry that your time out of the water will prevent you from success?This week on Champion's Mojo, we are sitting down with a true generational talent who is completely rewriting the rules of super agers and performance in athletics. Jeannette Brits, a 65-year-old Australian powerhouse, recently did the unthinkable: she shattered the women's 65-69 age division world record in the 800-meter freestyle by almost 30 seconds, clocking a breathtaking sub-10-minute time and also broke the 200 and 400 world records as well.But Jeannette didn't achieve this by being the tallest, the strongest, or the most naturally gifted swimmer in the water. Standing at 5'3" (160cm) and having taken a massive 30-year hiatus from the sport to raise a family and build a career, Jeannette relies on a ferocious work ethic, a "dog-with-a-bone" racing mentality, and the courage to train daily with a squad of men 15 to 20 years her junior.If you've ever felt like the deck is stacked against you, or if you are looking for the motivation to finally make your own comeback, Jeannette's story is the ultimate blueprint for relentless endurance.In this episode, we dive into:The Comeback Blueprint: How to successfully and safely return to high-level training after decades away from your sport.Using Doubt as Fuel: The exact mental framework Jeannette uses when competitors judge a book by its cover and expect her to go to the back of the lane.Outworking the Advantage: How to overcome a lack of natural height or physical leverage through sheer grit, technical focus, and brutal consistency.The HRT Conversation: Jeannette's candid reality on achieving world-dominating endurance without Hormone Replacement Therapy.Balancing the Grind: How mixing grueling 27km pool weeks with joyful, soul-filling ocean swims keeps injuries and burnout at bay.Tune in to discover why it's never too late to get back in the water, toughen up, and completely surprise yourself.If you loved this episode, please consider leaving us a five-star review on Apple Podcasts— more masters swimmers can find the show.Email us at HELLO@ChampionsMojo.com.

Becoming Happy High Performers with Jay AbbasiEpisode 270: Show NotesWhat if burnout isn't a sign that you need less ambition but rather that you need a different way to pursue it?

We delve into the importance of dedicating time to allowing your mind to be free before discussing Jay's Resistance Formula (energy, space, and choice) and how to take the first step toward solving burnout. Jay even touches on the illusion of control, why our power lies in our choices, and why delayed gratification is far more fulfilling than instant gratification.

Why does American patriotism sometimes feel almost religious?Church historian Wes Crawford joins Faithful Politics to discuss his forthcoming book, One Nation over God, and the complicated relationship between Christian faith, patriotism, and American civil religion.Crawford explains how the United States developed a kind of civil religion built around sacred texts, symbols, rituals, holidays, and national stories. We talk about why the Constitution can be treated almost like scripture, why the national anthem can carry such emotional weight, and what happens when love of country begins competing with allegiance to God.The conversation also gets practical. We discuss patriotic church services, Veterans Day, the flag, Christian nationalism, political polarization, cognitive dissonance, and the difficulty Christians face when their political identity becomes intertwined with their faith. Crawford argues that patriotism itself can have a legitimate place, but Christians need to recognize when national devotion takes on the characteristics of worship or begins overriding their religious convictions.One Nation over God: https://bookshop.org/a/112456/9780802885470Guest BioWes Crawford is vice provost and associate professor of church history at Abilene Christian University. His research focuses on American religion, race, and the history of Churches of Christ. He previously served for twenty years as a senior pastor and continues to preach and teach in churches. He is the author of Shattering the Illusion and Courage in the Sheer Silence. His newest book, One Nation over God, examines the relationship between Christian faith, American patriotism, and civil religion.

Someone has to take the plunge and shoulder the burden. A pioneer forging the path for the future generations of women in the Australian Defence Force, no matter the consequences. Royal Australian Navy Captain (Ret'd) Mona Shindy shares her unique journey serving in the Royal Australian Navy as a warship weapons engineer, becoming one of the first three women to serve on an Australian warship, being selected as the first female captain to wear a hijab and, finally, leaving a legacy as the inaugural and only chief of navy strategic advisor on Islamic cultural affairs.

Is plastic really the environmental villain it's often portrayed to be, or have politics and misinformation overtaken the science? Dr. Chris DeArmitt, founder of the Plastics Research Council, spent thousands of unpaid hours reviewing more than 5,000 peer-reviewed studies to find out. Host Gregg sits down with Dr. DeArmitt to unpack why plastic makes up just half of one percent of the materials we use, why the "floating island" of ocean plastic doesn't exist, what's actually driving anti-plastic campaigns, and why microplastics may not be the health threat headlines suggest. It's a candid, evidence-first conversation that challenges nearly everything the public has been told about plastic.

Ronald White, guest author, recounts how, in June 1864, Chamberlain led a perilous frontal assault at Petersburg, where he was struck by a minié ball that traveled through his hips, shattering internal blood vessels and his bladder. Surgeons gave him only a 10% chance of survival, and he wrote a heart-wrenching final farewell to Fanny from his hospital bed. Defying medical expectations, he survived the infection-riddled environment and returned to the field to command a brigade during the final pursuit of Lee's army. At Appomattox, General Grant chose him to preside over the formal surrender ceremony of the Confederate infantry. During this event, Chamberlain sparked decades of controversy by ordering a "marching salute" to the defeated Southern soldiers to honor their courage. This act of reconciliation underscored his belief that the war's end required bringing both sides back together as one nation despite the deep scars of conflict.

What if much of what you've been told about plastics, microplastics, and recycling isn't the complete story? In this thought-provoking episode, I sit down with Dr. Chris DeArmitt, internationally recognized scientist, author, materials expert, and founder of the Plastics Research Council, to explore one of the most controversial environmental topics of our time. Current research suggests that Americans may ingest and inhale between 74,000 and 121,000 microplastic particles annually, with exposure coming from the food we eat, the water we drink, and the air we breathe. Researchers note that these estimates are likely conservative because many common food sources have yet to be fully studied. Harvard Medical School's Harvard Medicine Magazine has also highlighted growing concern about microplastics in the human body and the need for further research into their potential health impacts. According to  Harvard Medicine Magazine (2023; Environmental Science & Technology, 2019.) At the same time, the United States generates approximately 35.7 million tons of plastic waste annually, while studies have estimated that only about 5% of plastic waste is effectively recycled, raising important questions about waste management, public policy, and environmental stewardship. (as noted by the: U.S. Environmental Protection Agency; Beyond Plastics/The Last Beach Cleanup, 2022.) Drawing upon decades of research and his review of more than 5,000 scientific studies, Dr. DeArmitt challenges conventional narratives surrounding plastics and the environment. As the author of The Plastics Paradox and Shattering the Plastics Illusion, he has built a reputation for separating evidence-based science from popular misconceptions, helping policymakers, businesses, and consumers better understand the realities of plastics, recycling, sustainability, and environmental impact. During our conversation, we discuss: • The science behind microplastics and what researchers actually know today • Common myths surrounding plastics and recycling • Why public perception often differs from scientific evidence • The environmental trade-offs associated with alternative materials • How misinformation can shape policy decisions • What an evidence-based approach to sustainability should look like Whether you're an environmental advocate, policymaker, business leader, or simply someone seeking a deeper understanding of the plastics debate, this episode offers a fascinating look at the data, the science, and the stories driving one of today's most important global conversations.   For more information: https://plasticsresearchcouncil.com/ LinkedIn: @ChrisDeArmitt Learn more about your ad choices.

Shattering the Myth of Hessian Invincibility at the Battle of Trenton. Guest: Professor Richard Bell. King George III rented 30,000 German soldiers, known as Hessians, to crush the American insurgency, leading to widespread patriot terror. Washington's victory at Trenton was a crucial symbolic blow that proved these "savage cutthroats" were human and defeatable. Following their capture, Hessian prisoners were sent to Lancaster, Pennsylvania, where they were encouraged to desert or defect to the American cause. This strategy resulted in 5,000 desertions, with many Hessians eventually becoming naturalized citizens and even contributing to early American culture, such as writing the unofficial national anthem. 518181

Welcome to Day 2887 of Wisdom-Trek. Thank you for joining me. This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom. Day 2887 – Wisdom Nuggets – Psalm 136:10-16 Daily Wisdom Wisdom-Trek Podcast Script - Day 2887 Welcome to Wisdom-Trek with Gramps! I am Guthrie Chamberlain, and we are on Day 2887 of our Trek. The Purpose of Wisdom-Trek is to create a legacy of wisdom, to seek out discernment and insights, and to boldly grow where few have chosen to grow before. The Title for Today's Wisdom-Trek is: Shattering the Shackles of the Rebel Gods In our previous episode on this grand, historical journey, we scaled the opening heights of the Great Hallel: Psalm One Hundred Thirty-Six, verses one through nine. We immersed our minds in the grand, cosmic architecture of creation. We stood in the celestial courtroom, and we shouted our praise to the God of gods, and the Lord of lords—the absolute, supreme Sovereign who rules over the entire heavenly host. We saw how His Hesed—His fierce, unyielding, and covenant-keeping faithful love—was the precise engine that skillfully forged the heavens, pinned down the chaotic primordial waters beneath the dry land, and masterfully organized the sun, moon, and stars to govern our days and nights. We learned that the very fabric of physical reality is held together, every single microsecond, by this enduring, loyal affection. Today, the grand temple liturgy takes a dramatic, breathtaking turn. The congregation is still standing in the sunlit courts of Jerusalem, and the antiphonal chant continues to echo off the stone walls. But the focus of the song shifts away from the creation of the cosmos, and steps directly onto the blood-soaked soil of human history. We are exploring Psalm One Hundred Thirty-Six, verses ten through sixteen, in the New Living Translation. The psalmist demonstrates that Yahweh's faithful love is not just an abstract, distant force that manages the stars; it is an active, aggressive, and liberating power that breaks into our physical reality to rescue His people, crush abusive empires, and violently dismantle the rebel spiritual principalities who hold humanity in bondage. Let let us step onto this historic section of the trail, listen to the thunderous roar of the refrain, and watch the Divine Warrior march to war. The first segment is: The Decapitation of the Egyptian Pantheon Psalm One Hundred Thirty-Six: verses ten, eleven, and twelve. Give thanks to him who killed the firstborn of Egypt. His faithful love endures forever. He brought Israel out from among them. His faithful love endures forever. He acted with a strong hand and powerful arm. His faithful love endures forever. The historical narrative explodes into the liturgy with a shocking, deeply unsettling declaration of judgment: “Give thanks to him who killed the firstborn of Egypt. His faithful love endures forever.” To the modern, Western mind, linking the death of the Egyptian firstborn with the phrase “His faithful love endures forever” sounds like a massive, moral contradiction. How can an act of mass fatality be described as an expression of love? To resolve this tension, we must view the Exodus through the profound lens of the Ancient Israelite divine council worldview, as masterfully taught by Doctor Michael S. Heiser. We must look back to the cosmic geography of Deuteronomy, chapter thirty-two, where the nations were disinherited by Yahweh, and handed over to the jurisdiction of lesser spiritual beings—the sons of God. Egypt was the premier, terrifying superpower of the ancient world, operating under the direct, dark inspiration of these corrupt, territorial elohim. Pharaoh was not viewed merely as a human politician; he was worshiped as an incarnate god—the living proxy, and the physical avatar, of the rebel principalities. For four hundred years, under the direction of these dark forces, Egypt systematically crushed, enslaved, and attempted to completely erase Yahweh's personal allotment—the family of Israel. The book of Exodus explicitly states that the plagues were not just a leverage play against human economics; they were an open, aggressive execution of judgment against all the gods of Egypt. When the Lord struck down the firstborn, He was striking the ultimate, legal root of the empire's legacy, and divine claims. The firstborn son represented the strength, the inheritance, and the future succession of the household, and the throne. By taking the firstborn, Yahweh broke the spiritual backbone of the rebel principalities. He proved that the Egyptian gods were entirely impotent, completely unable to protect their own biological, and spiritual, lineages from the superior authority of the Creator. For the oppressed slaves, this act of terrifying justice was the ultimate manifestation of Hesed. Love for the victim requires the decisive execution of justice against the abusive tyrant. The text records the immediate, glorious consequence in verses eleven and twelve: “He brought Israel out from among them... He acted with a strong hand and powerful arm.” The language of the “strong hand and powerful arm” is a direct, deliberate polemic against the royal propaganda of Egypt. Pharaoh's monuments always depicted him with an outstretched arm, crushing his enemies. But the psalmist clears the field, declaring that Pharaoh's arm was easily snapped by the true Divine Warrior. Yahweh reached into the dark, heavily fortified territory of the rebel council, grabbed His treasured possession, and physically wrenched them free from the grip of the superpower. He broke the chains of the empire, proving that no spiritual principality can legally hold a prisoner when the Supreme Commander issues a warrant for their release. The second segment is: Slicing the Abyss and Shaking Off the Tyrant Psalm One Hundred Thirty-Six: verses thirteen, fourteen, and fifteen. Give thanks to him who parted the Red Sea. His faithful love endures forever. He led Israel safely through. His faithful love endures forever. But he hurled Pharaoh and his army into the Red Sea. His faithful love endures forever. The historical procession moves from the borders of Egypt, directly to the edge of the impossible. “Give thanks to him who parted the Red Sea... He led Israel safely through... But he hurled Pharaoh and his army into the Red Sea.” Once again, the congregation responds to each movement of the narrative with the unyielding, rhythmic drumbeat of faith: “His faithful love endures forever.” To fully appreciate the cosmic drama of this moment, we must understand how the ancient world viewed the geography of the sea. In the biblical and ancient Near Eastern mindset, the deep, wild, and untamed waters of the ocean—known as Yamm—represented the terrifying forces of primordial chaos. The sea was considered a chaotic deity, a dark, churning abyss that swallowed human lives, and actively fought against the ordered creation of the Almighty. When Israel stood trapped between the advancing chariots of Pharaoh, and the roaring waves of the Red Sea, they were caught between the twin jaws of death: the physical might of the empire, and the spiritual chaos of the abyss. But Yahweh executed a masterclass of cosmic subversion. He didn't just build a bridge over the sea; He violently parted the waters. The literal Hebrew text says He sliced the sea into distinct pieces. He drove back the chaotic deep, carved a highway right through the middle of the abyss, and transformed the very realm of death into a dry, safe corridor of life for His covenant family. He led them safely through, insulating them from the walls of water on either side. Then, in verse fifteen, the trap slams shut: “But he hurled Pharaoh and his army into the Red Sea.” The Hebrew word for “hurled” is na'ar, which carries the visceral graphic meaning of shaking off a bug, or flipping dirt off your clothes. This is a brilliant, mocking piece of historical sarcasm. Pharaoh had mobilized the entire military industrial complex of the ancient world—hundreds of iron chariots, elite horsemen, and weapons of terror. It was an intimidating display of imperial pride. But to the Creator of the cosmos, this terrifying army was nothing more than an annoying insect crawling on His sleeve. With one effortless flick of His wrist, Yahweh simply shook Pharaoh off into the water. The tyrant who had arrogantly commanded that every Hebrew baby boy be drowned in the Nile river, was himself drowned, along with his entire army, in the very chaos waters that his rebel gods claimed to control. The empire was swallowed by the abyss, completely neutralized, and buried beneath the waves, providing an eternal, undeniable proof that the loyal Hesed

The Supreme Court's Republican-appointed justices seem to be in a big rush to dismantle voting rights for non-white people. On Tuesday night, the right-wing supermajority handed down an unsigned shadow docket order that greenlights racial gerrymandering in Alabama and dramatically undermines voting rights protections nationwide. In this Opinionpalooza bonus episode exclusively for Slate Plus members, Dahlia Lithwick and Mark Joseph Stern examine the details of the case. They also explore how we got here, and what this court's jurisprudential arrogance and voracious appetite for power means for democracy itself. By approving racially discriminatory maps, the high court's MAGA wing has exposed its willingness to rewrite long established legal rules in darkness—without transparency or accountability. This order also reveals a disturbing disregard for extensive factual findings from lower courts—and flips the legal terrain for voting rights from protection to peril.This is part of Opinionpalooza, Slate's coverage of the major decisions from the Supreme Court.

In this webinar, we did a Q&A with questions previously submitted to us from our listeners.Topics included:1. Is it intelligent to put the request upon the Congress to make the production of Genetically Modified Foods punishable under the Law?2. Why is vitamin A called a vitamin when it becomes retinol and retinoic acid in your body as it gets detoxed?3. Is it possible to live without artificial testosterone, for people that are ex-transgender?4. Please speak about the bluetongue disease in sheep and cattle ? There was a major outbreak in Europe last summer. It started in the preceding year in Holland and spread progressively southwards to France. The damage was considerable in some farms.5. Are there any good scientific reasons to doubt the theory of evolution? Does it belong to that group of atomic bomb, virus/germ theories, or is this the ‘real one'?6. Possible Mechanisms involved developing dysuria and purulent discharge symptoms 24-48 hrs after sexual intercourse Relieved with IM penicillin.7. Do you or other researchers in your circle intend to work on a detailed critical examination of Genetics, Adn, double helix, since this discipline also seems to rest on flimsy foundations?8. Do you think that genetic information is stored in electromagnetic vortici, as Konstantin Meyl thinks, or that we live in a panpsychism world, were we are antennas, or that there are morphic fields, a Rupert Sheldrake thinks?9. If cancer tumors are “bags of garbage”, then why do they sometimes shrink when additional toxins (chemo and radiation) are added to the body?10. If heart is not pumping, what are the other functions of heart?11. Thoughts on the Buteyko Breathing method in which the emphasis is on shallow breath and holding CO2. Buteyko says that CO2 deficiency is fundamental in chronic disease as CO2 delivers oxygen charge to the tissues.12. What is your view on consuming raw milk with Mycobacterium in it?13. What exactly are heart murmurs from a new biology perspective?Other notes:Join Tom & our wellness specialists at the New Biology Clinic for a public webinar Saturday, February 15th at 12 PM ET. This webinar will focus on heart month.

Aly Nickling Riddle joins me today to break down why so many people fall in love with the idea of homesteading and then walk away from it a few years later. A lot of people get hooked by what they see on a screen, fresh eggs, clean gardens, slow mornings, and a sense of freedom. What they don't see is the grind behind it. In this episode we get into the gap between the fantasy and the reality. We talk about why so many people quit, the bad decisions made before land is even bought, and the hard truth about … Continue reading →

What if the "eco-friendly" choice you're making is actually 200x worse for the environment? Dr. Chris De Armitt—materials scientist, Fellow of the Royal Society of Chemistry, and author of The Plastics Paradox—joins us after reviewing over 6,000 peer-reviewed studies. His mission? Replace environmental mythology with actual science. In this no-holds-barred conversation, Chris reveals why plastic bags are the greenest option, why your reusable cotton tote is an environmental disaster, and why billionaires like Michael Bloomberg and Bill Gates are funding studies that say the exact opposite of the scientific consensus. Whether you're a speaker who needs to fact-check your material or someone tired of being guilt-tripped at the grocery store, this episode will change how you think about "sustainability."   Guest: Dr. Chris De Armitt All Episodes: https://www.awakeningpodcast.org Roy / Brain Gym & Virtual Assistants: https://roycoughlan.com/ Bio of Dr. Chris De Armitt Dr. Chris De Armitt (PhD, FRSC, FIMMM, CChem) is one of the world's leading independent experts on plastics, microplastics, and the environment. A Fellow of the Royal Society of Chemistry and the Institute of Materials, Minerals and Mining, he has worked at the forefront of polymer science with companies including BASF, HP, Apple, and Disney. He is the founder of Phantom Plastics and the Plastics Research Council, a network of professors and toxicologists dedicated to sharing scientific truth. After reviewing over 6,000 peer-reviewed studies, he authored The Plastics Paradox and Shattering the Plastics Illusion, both available for free. His work has been featured on CBS 60 Minutes, BBC, Sky News, and The Washington Post. He has advised governments and policymakers worldwide and has never been funded by the plastics industry.   What we discussed: 00:00 Introduction 01:10 How his daughter's homework sparked a global mission 02:10 Expert witness AGAINST plastic — vaginal mesh case & 9,000 settlements 03:35 Peer Reviewed Vs Paid Reviewed 05:30 The Plastic Protestors 06:20 What would make a difference to the Environment 06:50 The Plastic Straw Myth 07:50 The lie of the Plastic in our Bodies 08:20 Why it Does Not take 1,000 yrs to break down 09:45 How long to Degrade a Plastic bag 11:19 Everylife bags 12:35 Tyre materials have toxic Rubber 14:20 How your body reacts to plastics 16:40 Does Plastics leak into your body from Water bottles 18:00 How Poor Countries sterilize their water 19:05 Testing the Plastic on rats should put you at ease 19:40 People get ill from the Worry of Plastics in your body 20:30 Fed 25% of Teflon to Rats 22:30 Do any Governments pay attention to his studies 24:30 Why taxing plastic bags did not help 25:50 What happens to our Plastic to be Recycled 27:50 Poland new bottle tax 30:35 No Correlation between Recycling and Litter 31:45 The Ocean Plastic Lie 36:20 Is the 8 Billion Population another Lie 37:20 The attacks on Social Media 41:25 His 2 Books on Plastic 42:50 Why are Billionaires lying about the Plastics 46:24 Be Skeptical of Headlines 47:30 Where to find Dr. Chris De Armitt

The awakening often starts with a single moment of betrayal. For Dr. Chris De Armitt, it was his daughters coming home from school parroting a lie: "All plastic is bad and doesn't degrade." As a materials scientist, he knew this was scientifically false—and he was paying premium taxes for this "education." That anger launched a crusade that would lead him to review over 6,000 studies, write The Plastics Paradox, and found the Plastics Research Council. In this awakening conversation, we explore how we've been systematically misled about everything from microplastics to "biodegradable" bags, why your anxiety about plastic water bottles is literally more dangerous than the bottles themselves, and how to spot the difference between genuine science and billionaire-funded propaganda. If you're ready to question what you've been told about "saving the planet," this is your moment of clarity.   Guest: Dr. Chris De Armitt All Episodes: https://www.awakeningpodcast.org Roy / Brain Gym & Virtual Assistants: https://roycoughlan.com/ Bio of Dr. Chris De Armitt Dr. Chris De Armitt (PhD, FRSC, FIMMM, CChem) is one of the world's leading independent experts on plastics, microplastics, and the environment.
