Summary

Del Bigtree returns to the desk after two weeks in Europe with An Inconvenient Study, bringing shocking reports from doctors and scientists around the world — and a firsthand account of breaking four ribs in a Canadian ER that exposed the reality of mainstream emergency medicine.
Jefferey Jaxen reports on a Super Bowl ad that backfired in spectacular fashion, raising serious questions about AI surveillance and corporate overreach.

Then, an unfiltered roundtable with Alec Zeck, Dr. Ben Tapper, and Katie Collins, PA-C, tackling holistic health, informed consent, censorship, and the terrain theory vs. germ theory debate many have demanded, and few are willing to host.

Guests: Katie Collins, PA-C, Dr. Ben Tapper, Alec Zeck

That's because I don't want any corporate sponsors telling me what I can investigate or what I can say. Instead, you are our

Wherever you are out there in the world, it's time to step out onto the high wire. Well, I wasn't sure if I was

1:13.2

going to do that walkout today because I'm in a little bit of pain. For those of you that may

But while I was skiing, and I just, you know, we hear these stories of people, you know, hitting trees,

1:45.7

which is what I did. But I just thought I would clarify, you know, the way that I ski and what that

1:52.0

actually means. I think a lot of times we picture someone racing like a downhill racer on an open run,
