Send us a textIn this conversation, Will Wright and Pastor Josh Burtram are joined by Amanda Carpenter, an author, writer, and editor at Protect Democracy. They discuss the potential rise of authoritarianism in America if Trump is reelected and how his administration has focused on consolidating executive power and dismantling checks and balances. They highlight the importance of institutions like Congress, the courts, and the civil service in containing authoritarianism, but express concerns about their vulnerability. They also discuss the role of elections as a constraint on authoritarianism and the need for a broad opposition network to counter its rise. The conversation explores the potential threats to democracy and the role of various institutions in safeguarding it. The principal themes include the importance of focusing on priorities that protect the right to disagree and resolve differences through elections, the role of the media in countering authoritarianism, the impact of Trump's manipulation of the church and religion, the potential challenges in confirming Trump's cabinet in a second term, the exploitation of unconventional legal arguments to solidify power, and the risks of future elections being undermined or delayed. The conversation emphasizes the need for voters to consider the consequences and make informed choices.Learn more about the work Protect Democracy is doing: https://protectdemocracy.org/Guest Bio:Amanda Carpenter is a writer and editor at Protect Democracy.

"It's strategically dumb," says Sen. Kevin Cramer, referring to those who heckled President Joe Biden during the State of the Union address, and otherwise made a spectacle of themselves. Cramer joined this episode of Plain Talk to discuss the president's speech, the Senate's GOP's progress toward picking a new leader, and the prospect for tackling border security during an election year. Cramer had tough words in his assessment of the speech -- “I thought it was the worst State of the Union address I have ever listened to or sat through," he said in his official statement -- but thought those who felt the need to shout at the president during the speech were "giving up the moral high ground." He said those who got up to antics -- such as Rep. Majorie Taylor Greene wearing a Trump campaign hat -- "have to trust the view public more." Cramer also acknowledged that Biden is conceding some points on border security to Republicans, and that he believes Republicans ought to press the issue. He said he'd be in favor of the Senate passing a border security bill through regular order and sending it to the House, even though former President Donald Trump opposes making progress on the issue before he's elected, and Speaker of the House Mike Johnson has said that any such bill is "dead on arrival" in the House. Why, then, did Cramer vote against the border deal negotiated with Democrats by Oklahoma Republican Sen. James Lankford? He says because it wasn't brought forward through regular order. As for the new leader for Senate Republicans, Cramer says that right now the race is between South Dakota Sen. John Thune and Texas Sen. John Cornyn, but that he expects a third name to emerge. He wasn't ready to say who he supports, and added that the election of a new leader will take place after the November election, the results of which will have a big impact on the choice.

Republicans were voting by secret ballot until they were able to get to a candidate who received a simple majority of the conference votes. After each round of votes, the member who received the lowest numbers was eliminated. Candidates running had the option to drop out before each round of votes if they felt that they did not have enough support. 109 votes were needed to win. Before the first round, there were seven GOP Republicans running for Speaker. Reps Tom Emmer, Mike Johnson, Byron Donald’s, Kevin Hern, Austin Scott, Jack Bergman and Pete Sessions. Sessions received the lowest amount of votes during the first round of votes and dropped out. Bergman dropped out after the second round of votes, as he received the least amount of votes. After the third round, Scott received the least amount of votes and dropped out of the race. After the fourth vote, Hern dropped out of the race after receiving the least amount of votes. Donalds then voluntarily dropped out of the race. Emmer secured the majority of votes during the fifth vote. House Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan was voted out of the race for speaker of the House on Friday after failing to receive the necessary votes on three separate ballots. Jordan lost in a secret ballot vote 86-112. https://justthenews.com/nation/states/center-square/nearly-1-million-residents-left-california-2022-fueled-cost-living Nearly 1 million residents left California in 2022 fueled by cost of living The exodus from California accelerated in 2022, with 817,000 residents leaving the state in 2022 for an annual net loss of over three hundred thousand residents to other states, according to new U.S. Census data. Should outmigration continue, California could lose more than the five, already projected, congressional seats it’s expected to shed after the 2030 census. During the COVID-19 pandemic and switch to remote work, California lost population for the first time in its existence as a state, leading to the loss of a single congressional seat in 2021 during the nation’s reapportionment of census-based distribution of the nation’s 435 congressional representatives. With a smaller congressional delegation, the state would have less power to shape federal spending. While California Governor Gavin Newsom has not addressed the new numbers directly, when challenged by Fox News host Sean Hannity on California’s population decline in a June 2023 interview, he said, “.3% [population loss] during COVID. My gosh.” Just before the interview, Newsom’s Department of Finance estimated the state’s population had declined by 138,443 during 2022, making for a .36% population loss in a single year. Also using Department of Finance Data, the Public Policy Institute of California estimated a decline of 211,000 residents in 2022. Meanwhile, the latest Census data cited above, once accounting for a sharp rebound in immigration and decrease in deaths that offset the increase in outward immigration, estimates a population decrease of 113,000 for 2022. While the reason for the differences is not clear — the finance department notes that the discrepancy between its numbers and the Census reporting is due to different time frames being measured — the general trend of data demonstrating the state’s general population decline is consistent. According to PPIC polling, 45% of Californians are considering leaving the state due to the high cost of housing. Will Swaim, founder of the California Policy Center, acknowledges that housing is a major factor but that other costs, the lack of opportunity, and even the poor state of public education are leaving many Californians, especially parents, looking to move elsewhere. “There’s no question that housing costs are huge, but that really ignores the myriad other ways that California has simply destroyed business opportunity, especially for the working class,” said Swaim to The Center Square. “It is a very expensive state to live in and the poorer you are the more that housing cost number hurts. But how about gasoline? Every week people are putting almost double what our fellow Americans in other states are putting in their cars.” Those leaving the state are disproportionately younger and lower income. For many families, buying property and raising children in the state is no longer a viable option. “We are losing younger folks, and I think we will see people continuing to migrate where housing costs are lower,” Manuel Pastor, a professor of sociology and American Studies & Ethnicity at the University of Southern California, said in an interview with the Associated Press. “There are good jobs in California, but housing is incredibly expensive. It hurts young families, and it hurts immigrant families.” Swaim, who raised his children in California, noted that his now-adult children are left looking elsewhere for alternatives. Sharing his children’s thoughts, he said, “We don’t want our children to be educated in California's public schools, but we want them to be educated in private schools that we can’t afford.” The majority of students in California public schools do not meet the state’s moderate standards for math, science, and English. When combining all sources of funding, California public schools spend approximately $27,000 per student. The Education Data Initiative estimates the average K-12 private school tuition in California is $16,337. https://townhall.com/tipsheet/spencerbrown/2023/10/23/us-border-agents-warned-to-look-out-for-hamas-fighters-n2630232 CBP Agents Receive New Warning in Light of Israel-Hamas Conflict Authorities along the U.S.-Mexico border are being warned by the San Diego Field Office of U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to keep an eye out for "foreign fighters" connected to the terrorist groups waging war against Israel for the last two-plus weeks, another sign that the border crisis has wide-ranging national security implications. First reported by the Daily Caller News Foundation's Jennie Taer, the "Situational Awareness" bulletin sent Friday is titled "Foreign Fighters of Israel-Hamas Conflict May Potentially be Encountered at Southwest Border" and is marked "unclassified/law enforcement sensitive." The bulletin explains: San Diego Field Office Intelligence Unit (SDFO-FITU) assesses that individuals inspired by, or reacting to, the current Israel-Hamas conflict may attempt to travel to or from the area of hostilities in the Middle East via transit across the Southwest border. Foreign fighters motivated by ideology or mercenary soldiers of fortune may attempt to travel to or from the US to or from countries in the Middle East through Mexico. Among the items border agents are advised to watch for are military patches for Hamas, Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ), and Hezbollah terrorist organizations — all funded by the regime in Iran. Other possible indicators are military age males, military gear including weapons, camouflage, and the previously mentioned terror group patches, single travelers, and those with undetermined return plans or associations to Israel, the Palestinian territories or regional affiliations. Agents are also given "questions of interest" to ask potential suspects with ties to the terrorist organizations to probe whether individuals have any "association with military or security services or government civilian agencies?" or "personal or familial association with Hamas, Hezbollah, Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ), Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PLFP) or any other similar groups?" It's unsurprising that there's growing fear that terror-linked individuals may be seeking to take advantage of the border crisis after a record-setting number of apprehensions and "gotaways" have been recorded on the Biden administration's watch, including an alarming number of individuals whose names matched with people listed in U.S. terror watch lists. https://www.foxnews.com/world/iceland-pm-goes-strike-womens-equal-pay-gender-based-violence Iceland PM goes on strike over women's equal pay, gender-based violence The prime minister of Iceland went on strike Tuesday in protest of gender discrimination. Prime Minister Katrin yaker-stoder joined women across the country in a national demonstration against pay discrimination and gendered violence. "We have not yet reached our goals of full gender equality and we are still tackling the gender-based wage gap, which is unacceptable in 2023," Jakobsdóttir told news outlet mbl.is. The nationwide protest, referred to as a "women's strike," is the first full day of widespread female absence from the workforce since 1975. "I will not work this day, as I expect all the women [in cabinet] will do as well," Jakobsdóttir said. The original protest aimed to emphasize the importance of women in the workforce and urge an end to disparate wages between female and male workers. Women in Iceland earn approximately 10% less on average compared to their male counterparts, according to the World Economic Forum. As Icelandic women's rights movements have made greater headway in their campaigns, the scope and meaning of the protests have expanded to include other issues. "We are still tackling gender-based violence, which has been a priority for my government to tackle," yakob-stoder said. Iceland consistently ranks among the most gender-equal countries in the world in terms of education, employment and health care. Jakobsdóttir's cabinet maintains an equal number of men and women and Iceland's national parliament hovers just under 50% female. Past Icelandic women's strikes have sparked similar protests in other European countries. https://thepostmillennial.com/coca-cola-quietly-deletes-mentions-of-hamas-supporting-blm-from-company-website?utm_campaign=64487 Coca-Cola quietly deletes mentions of BLM from company website Coca-Cola has been a financial sponsor of Black Lives Matter for years, however, references to its support of the organization appeared to have vanished from its website in light of recent posts shared by the group siding with Hamas. BLM Chicago and an organizer from Los Angeles are among those associated with the purported civil rights group to have publicly voiced support for the Iranian-backed Palestinian terrorist group following its latest wave of violence. On Friday, Texas Sen. Ted Cruz (R) revealed that he had caught the beverage giant "red-handed," posting two screenshots of its website, one of which included references to BLM, and an updated version that does not. Coca-Cola had originally stated on its website that Sprite, which it owns, had donated $500,000 to the Black Lives Matter Global Network to "support the group's voting education efforts and their February 2021 Black Future Month program." "We're in this for the long haul," brand lead Aaliyah Shafiq noted. "Lasting change will not happen overnight, so we're committed to continuing to amplofy the voices and efforts of our community, to listen and learn, and to actively help create a better shared future for America." In the updated version of their website, Shafiq's quote is still there, however, the entire sentence highlighting the $500,000 contribution has been deleted. "Editing your website is not enough," Cruz said. "Americans DEMAND an apology." The posts in question were shared in the days following Hamas' brutal massacre of civilians in Israel. BLM Chicago featured an image of a paraglider with a Palestinian flag attached to his parachute. "That is all that it is!" was the caption. Before long, users utilized X's Community Notes feature to point out important context. "The Palestinian terrorist group Hamas used armed gun men on Paragliders to enter a rave in Israel to kill over 260 innocent people partying," the note read, adding that, "previous to this incident, Palestinians were not know[n] for paragliding." It was later deleted, though the group did remain steadfast in its support for the Palestinians over Israel. "For every corporate donor who sent millions to BLM—including Amazon, Apple, BlackRock & Bank of America—do you regret supporting such an antisemitic organization?" Cruz asked on his podcast Wednesday, according to Fox News. The organizer from Los Angeles, Dr. Melina Abdullah, said in her post that "we must stand unwaveringly on the side of the oppressed," adding, "when a people have been subject to decades of unimaginable violence, their resistance must not be condemned, but understood as a desperate act of self-defense."

First reported by the Daily Caller News Foundation's Jennie Taer, the "Situational Awareness" bulletin sent Friday is titled "Foreign Fighters of Israel-Hamas Conflict May Potentially be Encountered at Southwest Border" and is marked "unclassified/law enforcement sensitive." The bulletin explains: San Diego Field Office Intelligence Unit (SDFO-FITU) assesses that individuals inspired by, or reacting to, the current Israel-Hamas conflict may attempt to travel to or from the area of hostilities in the Middle East via transit across the Southwest border. Foreign fighters motivated by ideology or mercenary soldiers of fortune may attempt to travel to or from the US to or from countries in the Middle East through Mexico. Among the items border agents are advised to watch for are military patches for Hamas, Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ), and Hezbollah terrorist organizations — all funded by the regime in Iran. Other possible indicators are military age males, military gear including weapons, camouflage, and the previously mentioned terror group patches, single travelers, and those with undetermined return plans or associations to Israel, the Palestinian territories or regional affiliations. Agents are also given "questions of interest" to ask potential suspects with ties to the terrorist organizations to probe whether individuals have any "association with military or security services or government civilian agencies?" or "personal or familial association with Hamas, Hezbollah, Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ), Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PLFP) or any other similar groups?" It's unsurprising that there's growing fear that terror-linked individuals may be seeking to take advantage of the border crisis after a record-setting number of apprehensions and "gotaways" have been recorded on the Biden administration's watch, including an alarming number of individuals whose names matched with people listed in U.S. terror watch lists. https://www.foxnews.com/world/iceland-pm-goes-strike-womens-equal-pay-gender-based-violence Iceland PM goes on strike over women's equal pay, gender-based violence The prime minister of Iceland went on strike Tuesday in protest of gender discrimination. Prime Minister Katrin yaker-stoder joined women across the country in a national demonstration against pay discrimination and gendered violence. "We have not yet reached our goals of full gender equality and we are still tackling the gender-based wage gap, which is unacceptable in 2023," Jakobsdóttir told news outlet mbl.is. The nationwide protest, referred to as a "women's strike," is the first full day of widespread female absence from the workforce since 1975. "I will not work this day, as I expect all the women [in cabinet] will do as well," Jakobsdóttir said. The original protest aimed to emphasize the importance of women in the workforce and urge an end to disparate wages between female and male workers. Women in Iceland earn approximately 10% less on average compared to their male counterparts, according to the World Economic Forum. As Icelandic women's rights movements have made greater headway in their campaigns, the scope and meaning of the protests have expanded to include other issues. "We are still tackling gender-based violence, which has been a priority for my government to tackle," yakob-stoder said. Iceland consistently ranks among the most gender-equal countries in the world in terms of education, employment and health care. Jakobsdóttir's cabinet maintains an equal number of men and women and Iceland's national parliament hovers just under 50% female. Past Icelandic women's strikes have sparked similar protests in other European countries. https://thepostmillennial.com/coca-cola-quietly-deletes-mentions-of-hamas-supporting-blm-from-company-website?utm_campaign=64487 Coca-Cola quietly deletes mentions of BLM from company website Coca-Cola has been a financial sponsor of Black Lives Matter for years, however, references to its support of the organization appeared to have vanished from its website in light of recent posts shared by the group siding with Hamas. BLM Chicago and an organizer from Los Angeles are among those associated with the purported civil rights group to have publicly voiced support for the Iranian-backed Palestinian terrorist group following its latest wave of violence. On Friday, Texas Sen. Ted Cruz (R) revealed that he had caught the beverage giant "red-handed," posting two screenshots of its website, one of which included references to BLM, and an updated version that does not. Coca-Cola had originally stated on its website that Sprite, which it owns, had donated $500,000 to the Black Lives Matter Global Network to "support the group's voting education efforts and their February 2021 Black Future Month program." "We're in this for the long haul," brand lead Aaliyah Shafiq noted. "Lasting change will not happen overnight, so we're committed to continuing to amplofy the voices and efforts of our community, to listen and learn, and to actively help create a better shared future for America." In the updated version of their website, Shafiq's quote is still there, however, the entire sentence highlighting the $500,000 contribution has been deleted. "Editing your website is not enough," Cruz said. "Americans DEMAND an apology." The posts in question were shared in the days following Hamas' brutal massacre of civilians in Israel. BLM Chicago featured an image of a paraglider with a Palestinian flag attached to his parachute. "That is all that it is!" was the caption. Before long, users utilized X's Community Notes feature to point out important context. "The Palestinian terrorist group Hamas used armed gun men on Paragliders to enter a rave in Israel to kill over 260 innocent people partying," the note read, adding that, "previous to this incident, Palestinians were not know[n] for paragliding." It was later deleted, though the group did remain steadfast in its support for the Palestinians over Israel. "For every corporate donor who sent millions to BLM—including Amazon, Apple, BlackRock & Bank of America—do you regret supporting such an antisemitic organization?" Cruz asked on his podcast Wednesday, according to Fox News. The organizer from Los Angeles, Dr. Melina Abdullah, said in her post that "we must stand unwaveringly on the side of the oppressed," adding, "when a people have been subject to decades of unimaginable violence, their resistance must not be condemned, but understood as a desperate act of self-defense."

Vermont Sen. Peter Welch spent last week touring his flooded state and assuring residents that help was on the way. Welch has a lot of practice with this. First elected to Congress in 2006, he experienced Vermont's first so-called 100-year flood following Tropical Storm Irene in 2011.In Irene's aftermath, Welch fought with the Federal Emergency Management Agency to enable Vermont to rebuild roads and bridges to withstand the new realities of climate change instead of being forced to replace the shattered infrastructure with the same inadequate design and materials.“This is all about climate change,” Welch said of the flood devastation that he observed last week. “It's astonishing to me, but there's a lot of people resisting acknowledging that we have to act and act quickly to address climate change. And I think that does not reflect denial. I think it reflects desperation to try to hang on to whatever fossil fuel interests that some of my colleagues represent. And (it) reflects a fear about making the transition from a carbon-based economy to a clean energy economy because it is disruptive.”Welch returned to Washington on Tuesday to give his debut speech on the Senate floor. In that speech, he outlined his two top priorities as senator: “Our challenge is strengthening our democracy and improving the living standards for everyday Americans. … If we don't do both, we won't do either.”In a wide-ranging Vermont Conversation interview with Welch, we discussed his visit to flood-stricken parts of Vermont, the fragile state of democracy and the surprising common ground that the progressive Vermont Democrat has found with far-right Texas Sen. Ted Cruz.Welch remains guarded in his assessment of the fate of American democracy. "It's a jump ball," he said. "Jan. 6 was of course the most vivid manifestation of the erosion of democratic norms. … But you're seeing many of the candidates running for Senate and for Congress — and of course (Donald) Trump running again for president — who were in denial about the outcome of the last election or peddling 'the election was stolen' lie."The reason I think is so important for our democracy to work is that's the tool that we use to address the challenges that Americans face."

Listen to one of the craziest interviews ever, BUT, as we saw over the weekend, it's just par for the course for the conservative renaissance going on in Africa! We're going to see the latest on the controversial LGBT law that was just passed in Uganda and why, in many ways, it really is the wave of the future! Highlights: ● “Ugandan lawmakers are going after identity, it's not merely the practice, it's the politics. Ugandan lawmakers effectively made identity politics illegal in Uganda! They went after not just the LGBT lifestyle, but more the ideology expressed in radical LGBT identity politics that have become so rampant in western liberal nations.” ● “Whether anyone likes it or not, LGBT identity politics doesn't particularly fit in a renewed traditionalist highly religious age like the one we're entering! So they can virtue signal, they can grandstand, they can make all the threats they want, all it's doing is driving the member nations of that traditionalist world closer together!” Timestamps: [00:49] The craziest African interviews ever [02:13] The latest anti-LGBT law that was just passed in Uganda [03:39] Some highlights from the proceedings of passing the bill [04:49] How even Texas Sen.

First, in a horrifying new normal, eight people were killed in a Texas shopping mall shooting rampage on Saturday. Jake interviews Texas State Sen. Roland Gutierrez, who represents Uvalde, for his reaction to the mass shooting, his efforts to change gun laws, and to answer what will it take to get American leaders to take action.

Beto O'Rourke shot to national prominence in 2018 when he narrowly lost to Texas Sen. Ted Cruz in an unexpectedly close election. Two years later, he ran in the Democratic presidential primary, and, in 2022, he ran for governor of Texas. While the three back-to-back races were unsuccessful, they generated enthusiasm and energy and at times helped reinvigorate the Democratic Party in Texas. Beto joined David to talk about the political fight in Texas, raising three children while running three successive campaigns, why he decided to run for governor, gun violence and its impact on young voters, immigration, and what he sees for his political future.To learn more about how CNN protects listener privacy, visit cnn.com/privacy

On today's Breitbart News Daily podcast, we begin with Texas Sen. Ted Cruz's disappointing move to make a 180-degree flip and join the establishment media in his support of the Journalism Competition and Preservation Act (the media cartel bill). It is an appalling move that will only serve one of the worst industries in the world. We explain. Then, we take on the Fed's decision to raise interest rates another 75 basis points. This is exactly what everyone expected, and it probably won't reduce inflation. So why bother? We explore. We also touch on quite a bit more in the opening, including an update on the man who allegedly killed a "MAGAt" with his car - he is now out on bond. Our guest today is Larry Elder. His new movie is called "Uncle Tom II: An American Odyssey" - it is sensational and you should all watch it. We explore the true history of black America with one of the right's most agile minds.
Elmo got a COVID-19 vaccine according to Sesame Workshop, the nonprofit educational organization behind “Sesame Street." In a public service announcement posted to YouTube, the beloved 3-and-a-half-year-old “Sesame Street” star talked with his dad about what it was like to get the shot. “There was a little pinch, but it was OK,” Elmo said in the video. Elmo's dad said he had a lot of questions for the pediatrician, who assured him that vaccinations are safe and effective for children. “Was it safe? Was it the right decision? I talked to our pediatrician so I could make the right choice,” Louie said in the PSA. “I learned that Elmo getting vaccinated is the best way to keep himself, our friends, neighbors and everyone else healthy and enjoying the things they love.” COVID-19 vaccinations for the youngest Americans started last week. That means U.S. kids under 5 — roughly 18 million youngsters — are eligible for the shots. U.S. regulators authorized shots from Moderna and Pfizer. The Moderna vaccine is two doses and the Pfizer shot is three. Last November, Big Bird got vaccinated — sparking criticism from some conservative politicians. Texas Sen. Ted Cruz, a Republican, called it “government propaganda.” The CDC advises vaccination even for those who already had COVID-19 to protect against reinfection, and says it is OK to get other vaccines at the same time. This article was provided by The Associated Press.

Within hours of the school shooting in Uvalde that left 19 students and two teachers dead, Texas Sen. Ted Cruz said armed police need to be stationed in elementary schools. Former President Donald Trump advocated for armed teachers and metal detectors days later in a speech at the National Rifle Association's annual meeting. Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton dismissed the idea of stronger gun laws in lieu of arming and training citizens.
Officials say the 18-year-old gunman wasn't confronted by a school resource officer outside Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas, contradicting earlier information. It's believed the shooter entered through an unlocked door, killing 19 children and two teachers. One of those teachers who died was Eva Mireles, who leaves behind a husband, daughter and an entire community who adored her. Juan Maldonado is a close family friend and considered Eva a sister. He tells Anderson Cooper how loved she was by her family, friends and students. Plus, Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell says he's directed Texas Sen. John Cornyn to engage with Democrats on a “bipartisan solution” on gun violence. David Hogg survived the 2018 shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida where 14 of his classmates and three staff members were killed and he's the co-founder of March for Our Lives. He joins AC360 to explain why he thinks “this time is going to be different” when it comes to getting gun legislature passed.

CrossPolitic Daily News Brief for Wednesday May 11th, 2022. Intro this clip: https://twitter.com/johnwesleyreid/status/1524032799501697037 Justice Alito’s neighbor decided to blast “Tis So Sweet To Trust in Jesus” as pro-abortion protestors, outside of Alito’s home, shout something about wanting justice? Have you signed up for our show in Arizona…it is next week, what are you waiting for! Folks- we got some exciting news for the happenings going around here at CrossPolitic and the Fight Laugh Feast Network. First, starting May 30th, CrossPolitic will be moving to a daily show, airing every day at 6pm and of course dropping podcasts. Knox has been pushing us to do this for two years, and he has finally won that argument. So, get ready to tune into you number one nightly news and commentary source! Secondly, to make room for all this new production, the Daily News Brief will be going back to audio, which is where a bulk of our Daily News listeners were at anyways. Thirdly, we have a bunch of new club member benefits we are working on, including an updated website club portal and club only social media platform. So, those listeners who have been lingering in the background, join the club, the party is just getting started. And for our thousands of club members, thank you for staying with us, your continued support, and your prayers. We have a lot of work ahead of us, and this very much feels like a further up and further in moment. Now where was I. Oh that is right, the bloodlust for the abortion crowd is insanity, and you will be seeing unleashed insanity if Roe is overturned. After calling the LGBT to arm themselves, the Mayor of Chicago also promised that Chicago would become and abortion sanctuary. The call of violence is spreading and this pass Sunday a molotov cocktail was thrown into the Wisconsin Family Action offices. As the pro-abortion community found out about it, they decided to leave messages, and here is a compilation of some of those messages: https://notthebee.com/article/pro-life-wisconsin “(A) radical pro-abortion group named Jane’s Revenge is saying it was responsible and is threatening increasingly violent attacks that extend beyond Wisconsin if its demands are not met, writing, “Wisconsin is the first flashpoint, but we are all over the US, and we will issue no further warnings.” https://www.lifenews.com/2022/05/10/pro-abortion-group-says-it-firebombed-pro-life-office-promises-more-violence-nationwide-our-last-warning/ Plug Did you know that more than 75% of those raised in evangelical, Presbyterian, and Reformed churches don’t pursue any kind of Christian higher education? Surprising isn’t it. Cornerstone Work & Worldview Institute is seeking to provide a new, exciting, and affordable option for Christians. Their mission is to build Kingdom culture in the workplace by equipping their students in a Trinitarian worldview and vocational competencies. Their low-cost full-time program offers integrative course modules, internships, and mentoring so their students can finish debt-free with vocational preparation, a robust faith, and financial potential to build strong godly families and homes rooted in their communities and churches long-term. Visit their website at www.cornerstonework.org to find out more about enrolling. Elon Musk would let President Trump back on Twitter and cited the ban was "foolish to the extreme”. Roll clip: https://twitter.com/disclosetv/status/1524085282366177283 Friends, we have tons of military personnel that listen to our shows, and they keep us in the loop about what is going on, on the inside as they fight for their careers against the forced vaccination policies. Well right now there is an important court case in front of a federal district court judge in Omaha, that if the judge would rule in favor of religious exemptions, it would apply to the Air Force nationwide. According to the Omaha World Herald: https://omaha.com/news/state-and-regional/offutt-airmen-ask-judge-to-block-covid-vaccine-mandate-citing-religious-beliefs/article_8e96601c-cd89-11ec-b0a7-1f525a4310d5.html “Three current or former Offutt airmen who have refused the COVID-19 vaccine on religious grounds asked a federal district court judge in Omaha on Monday to stop the Air Force from discharging or otherwise punishing them. Capt. Ian McGee, an RC-135 instructor pilot with the Offutt-based 55th Wing, said he applied for a religious exemption eight months ago but hasn’t received a response from his chain of command. He expects it to be denied, as the Air Force has denied nearly all of the more than 7,800 airmen who have applied for them under the Religious Freedom Restoration Act, known as RFRA. McGee said he would give up his nine-year military career rather than be injected with a vaccine tested with cell lines taken many years ago from aborted fetuses. “It goes against my sincerely held religious beliefs as a born-again Christian,” McGee testified. “My resolve is to stay with my relationship with Jesus Christ.” The three airmen are part of a larger group of 36 — including active-duty, National Guard and reserves — who filed suit in U.S. District Court in Nebraska in March seeking to overturn the mandate issued by the Pentagon last August. They argue it is a violation of their First Amendment rights. They are represented by former Kansas Attorney General Kris Kobach and a team of lawyers from the America First Policy Institute, a conservative think tank organized last year by several top advisers in the administration of former President Donald Trump. Kris Kobach “blasted the elaborate multi-level review of the applications for religious exemptions, alleging that more than 7,500 have been denied and only 46 granted. And the ones granted were only for airmen who were within six months of retirement.” Be praying for our people in the military. This is stressful on their families, careers, and the mainstream media is giving them no voice. CrossPolitic is glad to do our part! Meanwhile, the Republican Senate is making some chess moves on behalf of our friends fighting in the military. According to the Military Times: https://www.militarytimes.com/news/coronavirus/2022/05/10/bill-would-mandate-honorable-discharge-for-all-troops-who-refuse-covid-vaccine-mandate/ A “proposal — led by Texas Sen. Ted Cruz and backed by 13 other GOP colleagues” Would require Defense officials “to grant honorable dismissals to nearly all troops who refuse the COVID-19 vaccine and grant waivers to troops with “natural immunity” to the virus under new legislation introduced by Republican senators on Tuesday.” It “would also mandate that military leaders “make every effort to retain members of the Armed Forces who are not vaccinated” and broaden religious exemptions for the vaccine mandate.” Cruz said: ““It is absolutely unacceptable that [President Joe Biden’s] administration is trying to coerce our men and women in uniform to violate their conscience and religious beliefs, let alone on an issue as polarizing as the COVID-19 vaccine.” Last month, defense officials told Congress that about 3,400 troops have been involuntarily separated from service for refusing to get the COVID-19 vaccine, mandated last fall for all military members. Of that group, about 70% have received general discharges, a designation that allows them to receive most veterans benefits and potentially rejoin the military at a later date. The other 30% have received honorable discharges. Congress last year forbade military leaders from issuing dishonorable discharges for vaccine refusal.” Lies, Propaganda, Story Telling, and the Serrated Edge: This year our national conference is in Knoxville, TN October 6th-8th. The theme of this year’s conference is Lies, Propaganda, Storytelling and the Serrated Edge. Satan is the father of lies, and the mother of those lies is a government who has rejected God. We have especially been lied to these last two years, and the COVIDpanic has been one of the central mechanisms that our government has used to lie to us and to grab more power. Because Christians have not been reading their bibles, we are susceptible to lies and weak in our ability to fight these lies. God has given us His word to fight Satan and his lies, and we need to recover all of God’s word, its serrated edge and all. Mark your calendars for October 6th-8th, as we fight, laugh and feast with fellowship, beer and Psalms, our amazing lineup of speakers, hanging with our awesome vendors, meeting new friends, and more. Early bird tickets sale now!. Lastly, and I actually like this play here. DeSantis Signs Bill Requiring High Schools to Observe ‘Victims of Communism Day’ https://www.ntd.com/desantis-signs-bill-requiring-high-schools-to-observe-victims-of-communism-day_776951.html According to the NTD: “Florida Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis signed a bill Monday that requires “Victims of Communism Day” to be observed annually in public high schools across the state. The bill, known as HB 395, requires public schools to tell students about genocides, famines, and persecutions under communist regimes, including the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and the Soviet Union. The bill passed the Florida House and Senate unanimously earlier this year. “We want to make sure that every year folks in Florida, but particularly our students, will learn about the evils of communism, the dictators that have led communist regimes, and the hundreds of millions of individuals who suffered and continue to suffer under the weight of this discredited ideology,” DeSantis said Monday morning. The Victims of Communism organization has estimated that communist regimes have caused the deaths of at least 100 million people via political purges, religious persecutions, mass starvation, and other crimes against humanity during the 20th century. Chief among those regimes is the CCP, which is believed to have left around 80 million Chinese people dead.” This is Gabriel Rench with Crosspolitic News.

Texas Sen. Ted Cruz is coming under intense scrutiny for his role on Jan. 6 to overthrow the presidential election results in favor of Donald Trump. And Melissa Lucio is now less than a month away from being executed by Texas. There's growing pressure to recognize that no crime was committed.
The population in Texas grew by about four million people from 2010 to 2020. As more cars hit the roads in the Lone Star State, how are the streets and highways holding up and how is Texas paying for them? Texas Sen. Kelly Hancock (R-North Richland Hills), Dallas City Council member Omar Narvaez, Brandon Lewis of NuBrakes and Sean Merrell with the American Society of Civil Engineers discuss. The ASCE's infrastructure report card can be found here.
War Party Perversions. Distrust for Biden's Ukraine Propaganda. In a remarkable exchange, AP reporter Matt Lee slams State Department Spokesman Ned Price for lacking any proof of an alleged Russian False Flag. Even still, America Last RINOS such as Texas Sen. John Cornyn seem intent on war over the Ukraine Border. But what about Cornyn's own Wide Open Texas Border? Over one million illegals into Texas over the past year alone. Notes on the backwards priorities of our Ruling Class. Meanwhile, our conversation on the current lamentable state of the US Military. From Benghazi to Bagram to Ukraine. VP Kamala Harris loses yet another staffer, they're still jumping ship. Reviewing Biden's brutal jobs numbers. Misery Index rising. Plus, RIP Lata Mangeshkar the Indian music icon.

The House committee investigating the Jan. 6 insurrection poked another hole in the pro-Trump conspiracy theory that federal agents orchestrated the attack, confirming on Tuesday that a man at the center of the claims said he'd never been an FBI informant. Ray Epps, an Arizona man who was filmed encouraging others to enter the U.S. Capitol, testified that he wasn't “employed by, working with, or acting at the direction of any law enforcement agency on Jan. 5th or 6th or at any other time,” the committee tweeted on Tuesday. The committee issued its statement after numerous Republican lawmakers highlighted the fringe theory in recent weeks, including Texas Sen. Ted Cruz in a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing on Tuesday. Pressed by Cruz, a Justice Department official said she couldn't say whether FBI agents participated in the insurrection because she couldn't discuss “the specifics of sources and methods” of the FBI.

The Democrats are attempting to spend the country into bankruptcy and we'll discuss that with Texas Sen. John Cornyn and with economist Steve Moore. James Quintero of the Texas Public Policy Foundation talks about parents fighting back against left-wing school boards. Elon Musk moves his Tesla headquarters to Austin, and Governor Greg Abbott meets with Republican governors at the border.
Some high profile Republicans who may run for president are in Des Moines today (Friday) where they'll speak at a gathering of Christian conservatives. Two members of the Trump White House will address The Family Leader's annual Leadership Summit: former Vice President Mike Pence and former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo. South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem will also be there. Family Leader president Bob Vander Plaats told Iowa PBS that those three potential GOP candidates were invited because they've spent less time speaking to Iowa evangelical voters. The Family Leader plays a prominent role in GOP presidential politics. In 2016, Vander Plaats endorsed Texas Sen. Ted Cruz who won the Iowa caucuses but lost the Republican nomination to Donald Trump.Party officials have said they expect the Iowa GOP to hold the nation's first caucus again in 2024. Iowa's unemployment rate rose slightly to 4% in June as more resident began looking for work. Iowa Workforce Development reported Friday that
“Enough is enough,” Cruz said in the op-ed. “Corporations that flagrantly misrepresent efforts to protect our elections need to be called out, singled out and cut off.” Cruz has raised more than $2.4 million from corporate PACs since he was first elected to the Senate in 2011, according to data from Open Secrets. While it is popular for Democrats to disavow corporate PAC donations, only one other Republican in Congress, Florida Rep. Matt Gaetz, has made a similar pledge. Ticer offered answers but failed apologize and unable answer to a number of questions in the 15-minute conference, saying that the ongoing Critical Incident Response Team investigation will be followed by an internal investigation conducted by Loveland's human resources director in conjunction with a third-party investigator. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/nodekorum/support

Former President Donald Trump repeated his election lies on stage at the Conservative Political Action Conference in Orlando, Florida, Sunday, looking to reclaim his role as the Republican Party's kingmaker in the 2022 midterm elections and positioning himself for a 2024 presidential run."It is far from being over," Trump said. "We will be victorious and America will be stronger and greater than ever before."Repeating his false claims that he won the November election, which President Joe Biden won resoundingly with 306 to Trump's 232 electoral votes, Trump teased a White House run in four years: "I may even decide to beat them for a third time," the one-term former President said in his first public remarks since leaving the White House.During a lengthy speech in which he baselessly claimed that the US has a "very sick and corrupt electoral process" and accused the Supreme Court of failing to "have the courage" to overturn the election on his behalf, he called for a new round of voting restrictions, claiming, falsely, that mail-in ballots and early voting were responsible for Biden's win. After boasting that it has "been stated" that his endorsement "is the most powerful asset in politics," Trump closed out his speech by asking supporters to contribute to his political action committees as he hinted about his future plans."With your help, we will take back the House, we will win the Senate, and then a Republican president will make a triumphant return to the White House," Trump said. "And I wonder who that will be. I wonder who that will be. Who? Who? Who will that be? I wonder."Trump has remained unbowed and unapologetic since the January 6 insurrection, his political capital among Republicans scarcely diminished even after he was impeached for a second time by the US House, with 10 Republican votes, and then acquitted by the US Senate, with seven GOP senators joining Democrats in the vote to convict him.On stage Sunday, he named all the Republican lawmakers who voted against him -- calling them "grandstanders" -- and saving special ire for Wyoming Rep. Liz Cheney, the No. 3 Republican in the House, who he referred to as a "warmonger."He targeted Biden throughout much of his speech, attacking his immigration policies, accusing him of taking credit for the Trump administration's work on vaccines and demanding that he "get the schools open."Without any evidence, he claimed that Biden's policy changes are triggering a new crisis at the Southern border and creating a youth migrant crisis. He touted his own efforts as president to expand the border wall and said Biden was reversing his administration's accomplishments.To allay concerns among Republicans about the splintering within the GOP, Trump dismissed any discussion that he was contemplating starting a new political party: "We have the Republican Party," he said to applause. "It's going to unite and be stronger than ever before," Trump said at the gathering, which has served as an audition for other potential Republican presidential hopefuls.Trump won the unscientific straw poll of CPAC attendees when they were asked who they favored as 2024 GOP presidential candidates. But the results suggest that there is interest in other potential candidates. Two polls were conducted, one that included Trump's name and one that did not. In the straw poll that included Trump, 55% of attendees said they preferred the former President as their nominee for 2024, another 21% favored Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, while South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem was third with 4%.In a second poll that excluded Trump, DeSantis was far ahead of the other contenders at the event that took place in his home state. In that poll, 43% of CPAC attendees supported DeSantis, a close ally of Trump. Noem was second with 11%, followed by Donald Trump Jr. at 8%, then former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and Texas Sen. Ted Cruz with 7% each.The overwhelming majority of CPAC attendees who participated in...

fiber is a prebiotic okay so the skins of vegetables and fruits are prebiotic's probiotics are the good bacteria that people want to take into replenish your micro bio the reality is when you're taking out trying to you you don't need to take a prebiotic or a probiotic in fact the molecules known as polyphenols are actually a form of a prebiotic they go to your: the bacteria will break it down into beneficial things so essentially and not to be too confusing but you're basically taking a form of a prebiotic by definition by taking out front feels no it's not necessary to take a pre-or

the feedback if you don't like the language of going to change the wording is a couple pictures of myself that I would change but you know we have to do what we can do and get things up because that website is there to give information about things that we know that at least my patients are swimming towards us and asking questions about what you have all kinds of information on CBD on got health on sleep on brain protection on everything it just a platform so we want to get up there and also to get access to people to get high quality CBD to get access to upfront you and so on so yes there we encourage feedback hit me up tell me you're not a English major are you Meno English majors yeah me bad at language also so basically Eric and I made this website and there's probably some grammatical errors we would love we learned about it sooner than later I know what you're talking about but I do check out KB MD health.com because there is a lot there's got to be resourceful there's lots of research there is a store where you will find the brand-new KB MD CBD as well as trying to heal and will have other things added to the store as we put research behind yes recent research is one of the things I'm most excited about where you have a guest on today and were to be talking CBD in the cannabis industry and all of that supersmart guy Sean Brian's was just talking from outside not just I love historian you guys gotta stick with this show today because it can be super exciting but one of the things I want to do is I really want to do clinical research on my patients less early research I just want to track the results and were to be putting those kind of things first on the website as we await publication and then once we get published then will go and replace that but anybody go to that website is going to see the white papers first before while they're being submitted for publication way it works you submit it takes a few months this is just a way to get access to things much sooner much sooner last mention here a quick for a sponsor that we had for the show which is down weed is happening now with the medical director of Bridgestone and happens to be Dr. J Perry also a gastroenterologist at the top of the hour you probably heard if you're listening already mentioned ridges own and it was being rented by the late great Doc Thompson so I shout out to Doc Thompson again thanks so much for having us here the team chef Patrick Ron everyone couldn't be happier to now start our second episode of the gut check project on spoony radio so we we did not get pulled off the air last week which outcries and actually said you can come back and do another show I got another shirt is amazing so it's been a week before we jump into all the cool stuff to talk about today what you been up to man for a week it has been a week so last week my oldest son the whole family my youngest son the wife and I took tons of family down San Antonio we live in North Texas if you are familiar that's 5 Hours Dr. S. went and I saw my oldest son compete in the state basketball tournament they did well and dad and after that we it inquired when the whole thing so we decided to take off and enjoy some family time out in San Diego we do know I logged around couple hundred bucks I guess online scooters if you are looking for a way to enjoy an urban environment written lime scooter similar while you heard did you get a chance to jump into one of the Navy seal bug training techniques of water cold immersion we did decide not to do that after we put on a wetsuit and tried to serve tennis: water is not warm at all wetsuit is correct your wet your wet and cold and then you're still wet but we did serve it just got out of there soon become fully we went to do good for you let yourself or even wow I had an equally exotic experience I had to go to which I didn't have to I went to Wichita Falls Texas because my son had a tennis tournament there and my wife and daughter went down to Waco because she had a tennis tournament there which coincidentally shot out to her Carlos she double gold singles and I won the whole tournament love that my son Lucas and I in Wichita if you've ever been there Wendy very very windy candy yet and it was raining so we had tons of rain delays all the stuff I did bring my X.3 bar which you will be writing about this also but the X.3 bar is a portable exercise system developed by a PhD named John Jake wish and I had a long conversation with him not to long ago and he's done some great research showing how variable resistance and volatile bottom line is I sat in a hotel room worked out watch rainfall pendulum was probably as wet and cold as you yeah I without question down if you notice now the Wichita Falls in Texas actually is the region that varies the most from year to year in temperature fluctuation it has the biggest swing I believe throughout the entire state shock about the back me up on this by the time he gets in here but it literally has the biggest average temperature swing throughout the entire state that little region at their out of the Red River and – describe a little bit about what the X.3 bar looks like because if you had never seen this thing is really cool it's very portable it's equipped with bands but has has a resistance motion that you know if you're just looking anything that looks weird when he tried it will wear your ass down since in this actually Dr. Jake which gave me a code so that our listeners can execute a discount on ice just when you go you get it go to X.3 bar.com and then put in code KB MD and you get a nice discount there the other science is pretty interesting I'm mobile hacking this is like one of those mobile acts that you can do show is portable you know there's no excuses for not working out take about 10 minutes and you're done so you break a sweat you will think that you won't but you will break a sweat in fact if you go to the our Instagram at KPMG health is no need to do the resident we need to do this because you can see the big man Eric over here is not doing some curls with the X.3 bar actually got several videos of the X.3 bars so about someone else's biceps to do that she actually had to stop mid workout because he was getting too big yeah knows what about changes wardrobe so that would build fitness shared real quick any other news or notes of any to talk about for the gut check project coming up I can't think anything big of them have our first guest this week but I know that you went to where he works while Europe and Wichita Falls yeah that's right so coincidentally and we Artie had him booked for this I went up Wichita Falls right next to the border of Oklahoma Oklahoma just recently became a I'm to say the word wrong but medical cannabis legal state yes is that term that made Sean to clarify we John. His unit tells all about about what goes on yes I went up there and took a look in our CBD product is in that is in that store it was really cool to see all the hard work that we've done to educate and get things moving and so if you get a chance Oklahoma is one of the new states to start the medical marijuana interestingly enough that I do find it kind perplexing that taxes being such a large state watches the bordering states open up a casino or open up the opportunity for medical delivery cannabis or CBD and essentially date it's it's Texas citizens that more or less come support that industry and I'm sure this will be the same until Texas decides to participate I am very familiar with that because I'm from Nebraska originally were that's exactly what's going on in Colorado once I won the other right I would as the casinos Colorado courses the cannabis industry in Nebraska has chosen to be very strict on that so not surprising to me that a state can have neighboring states with little bit more liberal or differing views sure now I understand well I believe listeners will be going to try to start doing is giving over the format in our first hour so it this point time were going to talk about health news as a relates to the gut check project in KPMG health and you can learn firsthand why I always like talking to Dr. Brown in terms of how he keeps up with what's the latest trends and the latest relevant news in health so this last week and we got a little bit of experience with what were going to talk about but it just so happens there's a lot of research into the fasting mimicking diet and what it can do for you and I'm stopping that you can take over so super interesting a study was published just last week about the fasting mimicking.now with the fasting mimicking diet is is this is developed by a fantastic researcher named vulture long ago and what you do is he figured on animals that if you give a caloric restriction meaning your to take 1000 cal a first end and work your way down to about 10 to about 10% of your normal calories in a very specific ratio of fats proteins and carbs that you can trick your body into believing that it's in a fast and what that does in humans he showed that after five days you turn on your stem cells it actually gets your old selves sick and old cells to just go away called autophagy and so if you can think of it this way your body says okay these cells that are starting to show signs of possible early cancer things like that the body recognizes that goes you go away in working to start new cells so that's the basis of the fasting mimicking diet this was developed and a company called L Neutra has developed a product called prologue to sort of make it really simple for you to have the exact ratio that's have prolonged PR OL ON PROLON so vulture has been doing tons of research and you he's I follow his words Rhonda Patrick follows work through a lot of other conferences he's always going to longevity conferences and giving lectures this time something very near and dear to my heart he just published so out of the University of Southern California USC this article out of cell reports the fasting mimicking diet modulates microbiota and promotes intestinal regeneration to reduce inflammatory bowel disease pathology very long big Boring to title but here's what supercool is basically he took mice he put them on the fasting mimicking diet end date induced Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis so inflammatory bowel disease and then he showed that these mice had decreased intestinal inflammation increased intestinal stem cells they actually reverse the disease and something else is really cool is that they improved the micro biome composition and then he actually showed that it improved leaky gut or intestinal permeability something about this moment we have a disease or chronic disease inflammatory bowel disease if you don't know anybody who has as its brutal this is what I do with my practice all the time but by putting somebody on a fasting mimicking diet you can actually reverse this then he compared that group to a water only fast this is amazing the water only fast did not do nearly as well this is rising I would not have thought that I was completely blown away because I've always I've done I did three fast this year I did 35 day fast the first one was the prolonged one I did a prolonged fast and I could totally tell when those stencils kicked in I just had a boost of energy like you would not believe next when I did I tried to can't hack the prolonged pasture and try to do it using the foods I bought and try to mimic it I did not quite get that boost of energy and then my third fast was a water only fast for five days and once again I did not get that I just woke up at like 1 AM to take on the world and so I've actually contacted the CEO of L Nutro that were extra friends with Joe on Tuesday and him I talked to said yeah because that's the amazing thing we don't people don't realize it the faster mimicking diet is actually based off of true science and animals vaulter did this all he worked out the exact ratio how many days and then after you do this you have to repeat so in this particular group we had two groups of mice one did water only and that group did not do as well the fasting mimicking group had increased the fiddle bacteria and lactobacilli which have been shown to improve so you asked me the beginning of the show what about prebiotic and probiotic I well guess what if you do a fasting. Then your body will figure out what bacteria should proliferate more when we eat it's actually an inflammatory process so every time you eat electrically little bit of inflammation in the gut by giving it a break and by doing the fasting mimicking diet your not only given your get a break but your body goes okay we can get rid of old dying cells get rid of precancerous cells and working to start brand-new ones and is proven it with these mice what is so fascinating to me is that the faster mimicking diet is so much easier than the water only diet I can vouch for that then we had which at our whole company do it and at all trying to I think we have that on our on a page would a blogger yeah I think it's right at a year ago is that's correct and I can I can say the water fast it's not the worst thing ever but it's more difficult the whenever your body decides you need to eat and he had the influx I believe it's called a Rex and it makes you think okay your ravenous and you need to eat and you have a burst of energy simply to go out and find food and I was actually somewhat envious of those who had done the pole on is the control because the and including you that point time did not have the same drive to go out and just eat yeah you are fasting but at the same time your body seem to be tolerating all the better yeah what about fasting I actually after this article got published I realize another article just really got published with a look at the different fasting types in religion and we have Ramadan we've got Jan to pour a lot of similarities to similar with the Daniel fast we have lent which I'm Catholic but not delivered probably should be fasting in a more serious way here that but it's just interesting that the fasting is could be one of the easiest life hacks ever it's amazing that so many religions had that been are are based in insomuch a agent tradition that there are lots of things between religions that actually are incredibly similar and it also comes down to asking so the reason why this such a big deal is because I have my Crohn's and colitis patients and if you do have girls or colitis or annoying but it does please share this so that we can don't help everybody with this because I think a lot of doctors are talking of fasting and so I think my little hatch here who's going to be the fasting mimicking diet plus trying to heal for the polyphenol effect and we also know that he gets rid of the bad bacteria that's growing rich and big plus CBD which attenuates your immune system right could be the magic thing so I called Joe the CEO of Elder Troy and we got talking about this and he goes I want to come down to do the show let's talk and I'm like yes let's do this this is going be fantastic so we can have a whole episode dedicated to the faster mimicking diet and the science of it and you know how people can realize that it really kind of resets and it's an antiaging thing also so you can do from home this is it something it's going to require someone to go out and get a prescription only to prescription to do a fasting and a condign somebody's have to schedule a time to do it and then commit to it and then I would imagine you being a guest urologist to be C70 make those kinds of improvements that's really all you want is the best for your patient and if they can handle that on their own and escape disease it's a win for everyone as natural natural to do it so being vultures studies it's really exciting because what he showed is it is antiaging it is anti-inflammatory and was really fun is that he also so that you have to re-feed so once you do that and you you have the discipline to do those five days of decreased cowgirl of calories and using the fast mimicking diet when you start re-feeding it is awesome because and he also show that if you do it three times in a year that is equivalent to doing ketogenic diet year-round so now that he showed that in different animal models also so for those who at their key billing manager if you struggling as many who don't struggle but if you are struggling maybe this is not turned the computer I have done it and I have fallen off of it and got back on and fallen off it's and get it's not the hot again not the hardest thing ever but the discipline to stay there if you have a family I'm anything you cook for kids then that's not what they want to do is difficult Joe Rogan had Dr. Addie on how dark a joke and I prepare the both of them to deliver talk about the how they just can't rule their diets by making humor and jelly sandwiches for the kids to cut off the crust and Joe just would just eat the crust off the course so I did that also so every time I done Quito I would I would lapse without trying to lapse I would end up doing dirty Quito church where I would build despite outspent direct all is much as I want and then later be like well sure I can have this bowl of rice yeah what you know it with but with Quito if I member correctly you are talking about lab results even on yourself that where Ed there is advantages to doing keto but if you end up doing like he called a dirty keto you might actually failure your desired results off because your body has been moved to doing fats and you've basically thrown in this carbohydrate in talk about that quick so I didn't I like to do so one of my problems in working probably get into that little bit with Sean when he comes on when I do something I go all way way so I'll try it's all just go Quito and then over period of time I didn't realize I was that I drew I'd listen to a bent wrinkle podcast like oh I need to have lentils now is or whatever you know you name it and I totally forget that that's going on so my functional medicine doctor his name is Kevin Wilson here in town and you know he practices antiaging functional medicine she took my blood and called me up his like what have you been doing and course what we were doing is messing with my diet that I'm experimenting with different supplements because were trying to develop more products right and I'm not really paying attention that I'm doing everything at once at the same time sure and all of a sudden he just like your heard labs are messed up buddy commitments and talking alike is what you been doing I was like you have enough time I been doing it all. I'm just everything that it makes it difficult to find out but that's for sure but I will say it every single thing that you have recommended to patient for long as I've known you you've tried it on yourself first I have 100% done that so I have always done it that this is this is not new I remember being a medical student and I was in Lexington Nebraska running the ER at night so I was like the only person awake in Lexington Nebraska at the time and I decided to teach myself how to do an IV on myself which is hard especially first time so let's see I've tried to stick an NG tube down myself that didn't work so well I live but I've done an art I did an arterial line on myself one time that's ridiculous yeah that's not don't don't do that don't do any of this is a matter if I don't do any but I'm just saying that I will do it so that you don't have to share pain of an arterial line is about tenfold of any intravenous line I had left there was a comment on my YouTube channel yesterday where you I posted my colonoscopy online yeah over on YouTube don't do that either and I was awake but it's hilarious actually texted the text this morning with this Abby somebody in the UK said and you'll notice that nobody cares about your but were all looking to screen his writings always get nervous that I don't you see my butt and she pointed out the second he said that Abby looked at my butt and I I've never noticed that so colonoscopy everything so if I'm not you… Come down with everything I really would never I want to try things on myself then I do a case series with patients and then I have data to tell people I was a look this will happen to me this is this group of 20 people over here that were working with athletic Crohn's and colitis communities so near and dear to my heart because I'm using a lot of different things I've seen success with them sure and don't forget the reason why we are doing a check project is to talk about caving the health which was born out of the idea of taking what you find out in the clinic are you going from anecdotal to applied science and to find out how we can actually help people absolutely and so this is cool were coming down to the I guess the bottom of the hours and the rate of the Patrick is that what you say bottom of the hour the bottom of the hour I'm trying to give 30 seconds but apparently I don't how to make a three and is okay since I can call the fountain outside 20 feet away hate that Sean Brian first at whatever you guys 11 I wish you could go some facial is take the pain out of ordering your diabetic testing

pounds so far is immune amazing ballet school company said we can take this to market to make this great product will help you it's called grid you zone our IDU zone.com our IDU zone.com Brad's work that were comrades work for me countless other people go to read you zone.com and try today you're gonna love it read you zone.com remember that our IDU zone.com okay we're back back to the second half hour of get check project episode number two and now we are joined with our first ever guessed this is Sean Bryant Sean Salo yeah you guys doing today doing well so when Eric and I would talk about our first guest I just sent out I don't care what we talk about but I want somebody with a beard yeah I started this in eighth grade just just just fill in the patch exactly yeah when I turned 30 I look just like there some very proud of my beard for this is Sean Bryant is VP of operations at Greentree medical and you are headed the cultivation division also known as Ogier and Greentree medical and no gear was located in Oklahoma just north of Bert Burnett across the Red River Craig yes sir and you also have a on-site medical dispensary called alternative medicine great yes we do alright well tell us a little bit about what goes on yeah I think it's as one of the coolest things is your background I personally am so intrigued by that so I would like you to stop in the beginning okay well I grew up in agricultural family my parents had big textbased company in Paris Texas and so not really didn't know what I wanted to do when I graduated high school but I had a passion for pharmacy in biology so I got a Texas Tech University and I majored in pharmacy there which was the biology program then I change my major switched over to agriculture fell in love with the horticulture and and I did a lot of research at East Texas State University and Texas A&M commerce on the cotton plant graduated then I became a bag teacher built greenhouses taught kids how to grow went straight into administration became a principal did that for 20 years and love working with people so when my son graduated high school and my daughter she's a but to be a junior it Texas state and that's when I was like you know what I'll I am ready to chase my passion so Oklahoma June 26 they passed their full medical cannabis program and my wife and I were celebrating our 25th anniversary in Arkansas and we talked about 10 miles that day and I was tired she was in bed in the cabin no TV in I just typed up a quick Craigslist ad and I found three guys that were had little to no knowledge of cannabis and how we can use that in the medical field and we made a great connection and I started working with them and that's where I am right now that's awesome so I've known you for quite some time for disclosure my wife hot for you you are the first one the harder when she was a math teacher so I seen Sean is a principal I've seen him as an assistant superintendent of the school district that was down in Texas and I've seen you much like you can whenever Sean decides to do something a Zollo a.m. date from welding to out sing the guards that you value had outback from your house all the vegetables you raise chickens how did you decide that there was a need to go you told me the cell years ago there is a need for people to be able to explore the real practical application yet far beyond the psychoactive aspects of cannabis there are people out there that have a need how you decide that this is a way did you make it happen you know it really I'm researching cannabis and I'm learning about it and I'm sharing this with other people and getting into dialogue with them and these people people that I worked with people that I Matt in a prohibition state of Texas they or one of their family members had a dire need and we started discussing know-how cannabis could help them with a medical issue and so I kind of took on the position of a caregiver by being able to share information that that I gained from from research and keep in mind you know now Dr. Brown can do research and in the public but before it was something that we would just do you know talking to our friends will how did this work with you what were the facts doing a how did you feel that this you know work with this particular ailment but now were able to discuss more freely so you know that that's kind of how I Mr. quick question so you and your scientist by nature I mean with a background in pharmacology and then horticulture and then you are an educator so that your primary start of your foundation is in science then education then you get into this industry with her so much misinformation Howdy how did you approach that were you realize it's up to him you know it's almost like your moral obligation to try and get through all the clutter because that is your back on the minutes if somebody looked at you and said all I could totally see him in the cannabis industry but they didn't realize that you were a principal or rot yet just researching and educating people you know in our dispensary right now when you have a patient come in they don't know what to ask for date they they may think I need this strong marijuana that's got 30% THC but but what we do is we work with them and and let them know that that is not always the answer but you say what you say why are there instead starting check that by now some had a question about medicine and if the physician recommended to them and they don't have time to get those answers that they may have the questions outside face and said they'll go to a pharmacist and then asked the question they cannot take this with this this is just given to me is that this style of y'all that you basically interacting with people and they come in your trying to help steer them toward something that would work yeah so like the way our medical program works in Oklahoma basically you communicate with your physician hey I would like to try medical cannabis as an alternative or with your method of treatment that were currently doing and the doctor would write you basically it's not a prescription for cannabis but it's it's an okay that you can get your medical card and then you come to the dispensary and that is where we want to work with you know the patient's to find out what part of their system is is out of balance and what we need to do to help them get out get back into balance is there a term for that person Soto would like you said pharmacist sure if I go to Colorado was that since little bit more bold is the return when I walked in I need to speak with the well a lot of people call them bartenders that term came about you know right when medical and recreation and they tended the buds that were in the jars and and no new a little bit about each particular product that was in the jar sure now caregivers are though we don't act as the caregiver for that individual patient we are caregivers and so we are providing you know data and information to the patient and let them make their decision and I all white because a lot of times a patient will come in and you know asked that will what will this do if I'm taking Flexeril or if I'm taking hydrocodone or if I'm taking antibiotic you know I always suggest tell your doctor and and let me take you guys this is a trick here it's it's really neat so you go to the doctor with the stomachache normally you go and you visit with the nurse for 10 minutes takes your pulse your blood pressure then the doctor comes in and you know you spend 10 minutes maybe 15 depending on your situation or if you need a rectal in my case abstractly and that's when I stay 30s but know if you if you bring up the topic of CBD bring up the topic of the cannabinoids and tell that to your doctor say hey I'm I've been doing some research here let me take that Dr. is going to sit there for I may not had an hour conversation and the doctor has 10 patients lining up outside waiting to see him or her and he spending his time with me because he is craving this information sure he were sent from a not want to know what he knows I want to bounce ideas you know off of him and and see how I can battle better either handle my own situations or with other patients that I'm dealing with what I would say though even here in Texas where it's not legal yet because you know that but I see almost daily it seems like the openness is is there people willing to discuss something that maybe even just three years ago what going into depth on do you do you find that depositions in Oklahoma are starting to become more embracing now that it's it's legal for them to have this as an avenue yeah most definitely there was a little bit of fear in the very beginning with with doctors they thought that they would be labeled as the cannabis doctor or the lack some of them are the opioid doctor you know which doctor you could go to to get you know drugs like that can and so they there there were some that were reluctant to to even embrace that idea you know it if you if if you're discussing your health with your doctor and you know they do not embrace cannabis in my opinion I would I would want to second I would want to second opinion I'd want to talk to to another doctor what he authors like to chemically so your gastro neurologist here in Texas licensed here and I saw you specifically decide there has to be there has to be something behind the science of the CBD so comparing what Sean's talking about what a physician would have to do to to move into this movement where it's not legal what allowed you to be able to open up and say I want to find out more for the benefit of my patients so we touch on this last week Sean I just I had no knowledge the Endo cannabinoid system I don't alter CBD marijuana I was so whenever somebody is ignorant to it I don't judge at all because I just recently started learning all of this and what change my mind was I went to a conference and I bought a case very expensive CBD at retail price now I'm angry at the company but whatever should be a discount but I gave away my patients and I just waited and when almost all of them came back that I need more that's when I knew that okay there's something to this then since that over the last three years all I've been doing is looking at the science of this and of course there's not enough of research in the United States because of these different regulations and stuff but I'm seeing clinical evidence was why get so excited when we sit here talking I'm I'm thinking when you said much like the pharmacist right dear old Seinfeld episode where it I can't member who was but basically the doctor prescribed something to go to the pharmacy the pharmacist goes I wouldn't do that you do change the spelling of who had more power the doctor the pharmacist I say us three do a little YouTube skipper I'm the Endo Kanab and all adjust I hear the bartender to be the patient, recommend a certain strain and guilt for what I would do that would be a playoff of that but that really is kind words that's where the science is going with this that's what's so exciting when if a patient comes in so I went and visited your store this weekend to right next to Wichita Falls where was and Steve there was told he goes you know what's amazing is the people walking 20-year-old saying only get sweet you know old people with chains and their struggling and there like I'm the real goes here's what peers or to do for you this is awesome and video so when I realize I'm making this what Steve told me girls I realize I'm now making a difference and people's health goes I feel what you probably would and the medicine for which is to change people's lives exactly and and were surrounded by some huge military bases in Wichita Falls and in Lawton and a lot of our customers they they do not by the cannabis that contains THC they preferred the cannabis that contains CBD the high percentage of CBD and little to 0% THC you know with CBD it is it is new to me also as far is it the benefits it is huge very huge you mentioned the Endo cannabinoids system and you know I've kind of in my mind broke the broke medical patients down into into three different categories ABC a being where I want to feed my Indo cannabinoids system I'm healthy I feel good I work out I walk so, preventative it's it's kind of a preventative and then be moving into a patient that that has an element of whether it's a backache or or a inflammatory science laboratory exactly and then all the way up to our need of severe cancer and the end things where you're you're really going to have to to wage a major war with with CBD but yet that our patients that come into our facility even though you could command if you got your medical card I can sell you 3 ounces of gorilla glue which is a cannabis strain I haven't done that I have not I have an 82-year-old man that pulls up and he will buy CBD flower which is it CBD but cannabis contain CBD and THC this strain of cannabis contains 16% CBD and like .3% THC and that's what this guy buys an and loves it he he could buy no THC but the CBD is making different table does make a huge difference Steve our manager and Bud tender you know I asked him I should tell me what you think because he said cannabis user and he he picked up this bottle and he said I take it what it does for me he said in the evening I'll take a eyedropper input under my tongue and hold it my mouth for for five minutes and then I'll swallow it swallows it he digested he goes to bed he said that when he wakes up in the morning that his whole body just feels rejuvenated pop truck got up out of bed he's he's ready to go take on the day that's what CBD does in your neuromuscular system it it if you're already in that number one zone where you're just maintaining it it helps keep a you say homeostasishomeostasis it just keeps a nice even level balance at our level in your in your body and that way you you feel great when you wake up and and then other systems will start to fall into place like I want to get into it also is a move to the show is really heavy for another hour but there there are differences in CBD and when you get it and was labeled a CPD exactly and before forget X1 ass one thing you said that you are surrounded by military bases yes are these are the servicemen coming in getting good grief yes most definitely an and you know when youth historically you know a lot of our servicemen you know they coming with PTSD and and you think of PTSD as we know from guys that the comeback promote a war-torn country and Anna and they've seen some crazy stuff and and they're trying to deal with that and that is that is very true but how huge our military is there there are things that have happened in the military it could be just having a car wreck you know that is traumatizing to you while your own active duty and and so these guys you know they're there looking for ways to to deal with you know PTSD and emotional issues so one of the things we talked about that out my goal would be this you guys beating the people that are selling CBD and selling other marijuana products you can't make any disease claims what I want to do is get research so you can have published articles 1 of the things Dr. Col. Philip Blair is also a doctor of is the medical director at Alexa and also our CBD is powered by licks and always the medical director there he actually published a case series with CBD and its effect on PTSD is a full bird colonel that realize the benefits of CBD and is now working for CBD company and still seeing patients and collecting data and so were to bring him down and he's he's in a come on in the next month yeah what I really want to do it so he so knowledgeable about that and is also knowledge about the other thing that unfortunate happens in war which is traumatic brain injury and he's actually published something on TV guys and we were talking about possibly setting up a CME meeting so doctors need certain minor credits at my hospital door trauma surgeons because I really believe that a protocol of doing high dose DHA plus CBD at the first impact of any type of dramatic brain injury recent article just got published route showed that unfortunately they did autopsies on the boys that were 16 to 19 that had played football but it had shown in these they were there were unfortunately killed from other circumstances but they they are now looking at the brains looking for CTE and are already showing signs of CTE from just high school right so we know that this TBI thing is huge and I just love it that we have like a full bird colonel who is a doctor willing to embrace it you're talking about it surrounded by military bases it's a perfect marriage is a like-minded think is this essentially what you talk about Sean whenever your wanting to help he would've come to you for that help you want to give guidance that you have it's not just anecdotal I think this'll work this is it's it's this works for this ailment we want to help you just like you said you're not selling the gorilla glue to somebody just because it's profitable to you you want to got into something's gonna make him feel better that's the whole purpose right exactly and you know back on the Indo cannabinoids system the way this the CBD works it just kind of columns some of these receptors I guess it it it if if there's something that for instance on PTSD my wife was attacked by a dog about two years ago we were done in San Marcus best in our daughter and a big bull mastiff Jehovah God are yet Torah but Karen carries on a baking sheet for so it's not her fault I was a bacon on me know if done nervously if you're baking carrier don't want grandson Mark yeah well now you know she has a phobia of just dogs but there are times that I look at her whenever somebody if were in Denton walking around where it's a dog friendly town in here comes this guy with his tiger stripe pit bull that's a sweet dog she kinda moves next to me in and she is having some anxiety and CBD is a product that really does help with that and if if if we know that were going to go to Denton she'll consume some CBD and that will you know help help your wife as long as I know you and Karen is never been a skittish or anxious person and I remember that incident quite vividly and you and you're right I arrived I've heard her comment that it's unfortunate for her that that now is something that's a blemish on an experience but I've also heard her comment that Seabees actually helped her not have is anxious. Whenever we meet chal for dinner out then there are yeah and I and you know the Indo cannabinoids system goes all the way down to think 600 million years ago you know it was in little squids and and sea creatures and and still is in most of the animals today and dogs you know there are a lot of people that will buy this product CBD do not give your animals THC please don't but CBD does help with skin conditions with animals with anxiety with animals one of the number one top sellers in Colorado right now are these pet products dog biscuits yeah I see this all the time of my patients they will deftly spend the money to treat her pants and not uncommonly will not have the money for their own medicines right but they will make sure that the pets are the words on my PTSD I'm looking at all the articles were going to be publishing here soon we've got autism and CBD we got CBD and IBD we got a full review of the end of cannabinoid system working to do PTSD and CBD in these blogs are all about science with references so that you can just hand them to people go oh here's this you look at were not making a claim but you can do your own homework just like you did were you felt that moral obligation to get out there and be a caregiver now you are actually going to have to educate in a way without making claims in my opinion is as a doctor the best way to do it and as an educator is to give references exact this is not my opinion this is just based on these this whole process to bring up Dr. Blair's name again that's actually one of his biggest calls is how do I end up taking my research and make it more applicable to the VA and to the basis because these are the gentlemen who are fighting for our country abutting a lot of the line and often times and they go to that system that machine the options are limited theirs is not it is obviously not of counseling the talk button and in the news today but oftentimes it's just to the prescriptive therapies and not to CBD that actually could be making a difference one yeah absolutely I was just talking to him we were I have a friend in Rich Hagedorn back in Omaha he's a retired 30 years in the military and him and a group of guys have started a alcohol company called soldier volley liquor and we would talk about that how they give back to the servicemen and I'm like when we got have done show we'll talk about this I think the veterans are one of our biggest populations that we can really help and I didn't even realize that you're surrounded by military bases where they are they are seeking you out exactly right yeah and and and were therefore we we want to help on the the side effects are just zero that I've seen with using CBD and compared to what they have received from the VA hospitals that cause horrible horrible side effects in these guys they they realize that they're there saying that their spouses are saying that and so they're looking for you know some some treatment that will help them mean everything were talking about comes down to inflammation PTSD information is hyper firing of nerves inflammatory bowel disease the fast mimicking diet that help these mice that is an autoimmune issue what I really would like to do this next part of the shows let's geek out I mean you got a background we can get into the end of cannabinoid system let's clear up some of the confusion let's talk about the other things full-spectrum terpenes blob about the sound sciences but let's let's bring back to level so that when someone walks in your store they listen to this or you can recommend them to listen to it there you know what they're getting just a resale because we are reaching the top of our or just a moment but this is Sean Brian's he is the vice president of operations for alternative medicine newly opened here in Oklahoma and as any other job websites yet we do have on our Instagram is Okie okay I_earth and we also have alternative medicine okay to grant alternative medicine okay on Instagram will see here in just a moment for the next hour also it's funny shows on-demand at spoony.this is the only 24 hour take anywhere platforms dedicated to food and fun career spoony this hour from Townhall.com, editors hope you have at least some information from the black boxes of the doomed Ethiopian jetliner by days end those devices now being analyzed by experts in France here the US FAA acting administrator Daniel Elwell says his agency had to investigate for ordering all 737 Max jetliners grounded it is in our minds now link that is close enough to ground airplanes he was on NBC's today show a former Texas congressman joins a growing field of Democrats vying for the parties 2020 presidential nomination Democrat Betty O'Rourke became a political sensation during his 2018 bid to unseat Texas Sen.

medicine vis-à-vis the operations of that and that will clear and just a quick reminder start of second hour if you are interested in picking up your own are trying to heal just go to love my tummy.com/spoony use discount code spooning for some savings for yourself and then of course if you want to check out KB MD health CVD you can also go to KB MD okay BMD health.com or maybe somewhere else you go extra you could come over to Oklahoma and pick up some KB CBD oil when we saw this product in our store when when Eric and I met I immediately fell in love and and the first thing that that jumped out at me was you know having Dr. Brown's name on the bottle so many of our patients that command our dispensary that's the first thing that they asked is not what a doctor what a doctor recommend this what is what would end in a lifetime just kind of funny they say what would my doctor say about me using this and that's when I'm likable don't talk to your doctor tell your doctor what you want to do ask your doctor but this particular product that's backed up with with research and an extensive studies we we wanted to be a part of this we wanted this on our shelves the the other thing that that really jumped out at me is how this product was made how it was manufactured how they did the extraction process y'all use a process called supercritical CO2 extraction so cannabinoids and that are on the Kent cannabis plant they are oil soluble and they are alcohol soluble and so historically they would use some nasty chemicals like butane and propane and they would blast that gas which in a liquid form through through the cannabis extract the the all of the cannabinoids and then try to remove some of the petroleum products from that crude oil and in California they do a hunt of testing on that and California is not happy with the trace petroleum products that are still in the considered a contaminant behind it is a contaminant and some of the extraction method they actually feel that that is the containment sure can be yes alcohol so another way to extract from a cannabis plant you can take and back in the day they use things like acetone in isopropyl alcohol's and and some alcohols that that work food grade like Everclear for instance hundred 90 proof Everclear that can be used to extract cannabinoids from my cannabis plant and and do a full CBD extraction now they tried to evaporate that alcohol that that's also an end they can't sure he can't get all it all out yeah I have taken not this product but I've taken other CBD tinctures that staying real bad under my tongue some people like that staying Carlock taking of shot of vodka over you know some type of alcohol drink for me I do not consume alcohol I find it not not always II use to like alcohol but I I don't like it anymore and when I'm treating a patient I don't want to recommend a CBD tincture that has alcohol in it or other nasties in it I want to recommend a clean extracted product that use supercritical CO2 let me answer the question have you seen certain products that said possibly CO2 extraction put on your tongue burns basically mislabeling gallery itself is a little bit wild West right now most definitely met and you know I've had patients come to us and say yeah we bought this said at the jiffy mark down the road in and it doesn't work it doesn't do anything in and I look at it and you know a lot of these products were were made in India or in China and hey guys I it may be the real thing but these guys and and we have other CBD lines in our store also that are that we know the growers trip and just like your guys we we know where this plant came from we know that it was tested we know that it was tested for pesticides we know that that you know it was tested for levels of THC or CBD or other cannabinoids that are in it when I talked to Steve last week whenever we were entertaining the idea of moving KB MD CVD to I alternative medicine Oklahoma the very first question he said is we can't shelve this without a authenticated COA certificate of analysis and can you may want to talk about this why did you partner with Alexa and all-knowing it that there were certain parameters that you knew you had to meet so knowing that the industry itself so let's back up and just look at the supplement industry so my my initial background was in clinical research during pharmacologic studies and then I Neil found a few holes there we figured out we could do something natural to fix people and that's how we develop doctrine until once I get in touch until I realized holy cow the this industries people mislabeling their making claims or doing things so knowing that if I was really get into the CBD aspect of medicine I just wanted to make sure that I went with a company that was completely on the up and up very open and make sure that they had complete sourcing it was an organic farm they could naturally extract which of the supercritical CO2 extraction and religious source to one company so they have complete control of everything and that was a little and the been very happy that I've partnered with them in when you talk to the CEO when we have lunch with Gabe the people that are doing the right thing they want help each other out so they're there all about if you want to do CW Charlotte's Web do that CBD line is lying as he lines another one wherever it was like yeah let's just all were not in competition the good the people that are doing the right stuff or not competition with each other there there to educate and that's why want to part with little there were very open about church said yeah we just want to do this and that's why they want to part with me because they know that I want to be publishing lots of clinical data on this yes so at another big thing that Stephen also let me know is that we have to have CBD's that is full spectrum that we had on this a little bit last week and we can get into a little bit about what full spectrum of what the entourage effect is what you learn some words like terpene's final cannabinoids. Full spectrum and then talk a little bit about somebody who may appear reputable doing things like isolates but what limitations are on that so Sean start you what is it mean for something to be a full-spectrum product within your your dispensary yeah and people that have researched using cannabinoids to treat their ailments that that's the first thing that they asked for they want a full spectrum CBD and it it it it is very beneficial because all of these can I have annoyed CBN CBD and CBG and even THC they all work with each other and and that's why having a full spectrum product here extract it is very very beneficial I just I feel like that it's the way that these cannabinoids work with each other to to address your problem so it we had last week we talked about drugs that have been formed down to isolate said actually underperformed compared to what it was they were they were designed to build a home Otilio told me GW pharmaceuticals's, who are hidden@gwpharmaceuticalsaddress.fda approval for PDO lacks direct appeal something like that something like that that I got approved for seizures it is a CDD isolate what is interesting without republishing more there is a great example because I'm not a neurologist but as gas are all just they did try to look at that particular isolate in ulcerative colitis and ended up having a big dropout rate due to side effects I don't see side effects when I use the full spectrum right not all and will and in talking about full-spectrum hit on a little bit also but to you today different cannabinoids as well as another word terpenes so tripping profile can actually mean something and this is this is great for you because we had talked about where is the science going so CVD is new everyone the ECS is not being taught in medical school and that's a brand-new frontier for a lot of people to talk about but how do you know what CBD combinations going to work for you could actually be decent some differentiation in doing that so much going to walk all through this to you Sean so one of the things that I been either the tunnel reading and when you start looking at some of these people who are PhD's in the writing about this it gets pretty high level it's like any other specialty I'm a casserole dish I spent three extra years learning the got just got the version of the Endo Canavan all adjust procedure and looking at all just because the science is getting so dialed in and one of the things it's really interesting is that different combinations may do different things for different people so we talk about the disease state when someone comes in and says shot I got my back I got sciatica can you help me with that that kind of thing so I think that the terpenes are terpenes are in every plant and it it's what you smell not tomato plan has terpenes is an oil it I don't know if it's in oil but it is a component you know in their structure but it does have a smell to it most terpenes do the thing that just blows my mind these guys that manufacture lactate the vape cartridges and this is the easiest way to try to understand terpenes and how they can affect the way or change the way I can have annoyed's informed you that they you can do a full extraction of THC and CBD and you can take a terpene like why mean for instance and add to that extraction you can consume that and have a completely different effect then if you added a blueberry terpene to that extraction was the island versing yes obeyed immersing is one of them that they look that word they have shown that if you have a higher concentration of beta mercy that crosses the blood brain barrier and it brings CBD with it so if you've got a brain issue maybe we need to start using higher immersing levels Piper Ian I think is the other one that's more for joint inflammation like relearning about this is a brand-new science and Sarandon is so exciting and it's gonna take people with the pharmacy background people mean that's why love what you're doing and when you have this educator background is a science and you're bringing all that into this new space that needs to be cleared up that's what we have in the show to talk about the stuff yeah and seizure patients for instance they may take a they may get a perfect dial in profile of medicine that they're taking and it works so let's say I'm having 10 seizures a day and this is working great after about a month or two they may start having one or two seizures a day and then three months later they may have three or four in anger stuff doesn't work or I'm have built up a tolerance to it that's where I call it resetting the cannabinoids clock making little subtle changes with terpenes to the same profile that that works for you the same ratio of CBD and CBN and CBG that works for you in treating your seizures but I need to reset the way that is working with my Indo can have annoyed system if that makes sense so by making a small change with a terpene they have found that it resets that clock and that seizure patient now is medicated and able to go through the day without having one seizure and then after a period of time they reset that clock in and and start over so it that's why it in our medical profession I cannot wait till all of our doctors will sit down with the patient instead of just signing the piece of paper and synonym to the dispensary because the other thing you know were lucky to have Stephen in our dispensary I mean we really are truly blessed I had a patient come in the other day that had gone to a another dispensary that had two ladies that were retired kindergarten teachers that were working at the dispensary in you know they had no idea what was in this model innovate they just knew that it was this process and you know for the same reason the matters we get to CVD are probably matters on his help guide you to listen work for so when I run into whenever I see anybody there's quite a few multilevel marketing companies which are try to get into the CBD industry and what I have seen is that if I go to like a tradeshow or something the have a booth I'll just walk up to me like what's this and listen to what they say and everyone that I've encountered doesn't really understand it and are just throwing the words out and try to do the skills you need this this is the is isolate this is this it's got a full terpene spectrums or will we limit so isolate nursing turbine spectrum dual turbine is no and let my kids laugh because of the accident happened about five times Robbie will tell me more know you wrong that is it just education thing but if you're just trying to move some stuff there ever is using these words like did you heard the term broad-spectrum so broad-spectrum is a marketing term is no such thing as each of the broad-spectrum and I cannot find it fascinating that that's catching on, the Joe dirt style of selling the difference tween blue sky pasta Dragon just does well Doug number one thing that we look for is you now want to know how the medicine was made I want to know where the cannabis came from and I want to know that it was tested and that's why I can't always recommend going and buying this on eBay this on that you stay online for $5.99 in and think it is really going to it it may hurt you your point is now I want to hear your horticultural background how you guys grown up their local well it's funny because you know going into this you know I'm res
