Built On Fraudulent Foundations

Trigger Warning - This week we discuss (among many other things) the sensitive topic of suicide. If this is something you're not comfortable with we'll see you next week. We also talk about the pro's and con's of our individual choices (and why we should make them for ourselves, not for others), give updates on Michael Saylor and Pork Barilaro as well as ponder how much of society is built on fraudulent foundations, as the latest study on SSRI antidepressants has shown that their purported benefit is not grounded in scientific fact.

Diversifying Portfolios

This week we celebrate 2 years of the podcast and talk about the Scott Morrisons secret portfolios, the death of Instagram, America indebting Ukraine and a new first of its kind prospective vaccine study out of Thailand – with a few interruptions from Jake along the way (sorry – but we don’t edit, warts and all).

Retiring Science and Retroactive Punishments

This week we discuss the QLD governments puzzling decision to fine teachers AFTER mandates were removed (and a potential financial reason why). We also discuss Science Himself Dr Anthony Fauci's decision to retire in December, some Victorian businesses suing the government over lockdowns (who appear to have a very strong case) and also some interestingly-timed leaks from Ukrainian President Zelensky's Washington Post interview from earlier this year - which parts did they leave out of the original report, and why are they out now?

The Don

This week we cover the importance of sleep, the huge news of former I Cook Foods founder (and slug gate victim) Ian Cook running against Daniel Andrews in his electorate of Mulgrave and some fascinating donation law changes Dan made to stack the deck in his favour, as well as the irony of the push for renewables to save the environment and we make a bet about hydrogen vehicles in 2035 - better subscribe now so you don't miss the conclusion!

Nuclear Republic

This week we discuss a huge story that no one else is talking about involving the James Webb telescope and the creation of our universe. We also talk about the death of Queen Elizabeth, her legacy, potential flow on effects and wonder if now is the time to have another referendum on becoming a republic. We also have some interesting updates on UK vax guidelines changing, their taxpayer funded energy "cap" (probably coming soon to Aus) and much more!

What’s Going On in the Background

This week we put a spotlight on the big news stories happening in the background while every corporate media service is saturated with stories about the Queen.

Banks A Lot

This week we talk about Alex's trip to the Australian Crypto Convention, banks being banks, Alex's "Credit Card Triangle", the latest Aus Bureau of Statistics excess death data and more!

Opt-Out

This week we talk about the big Optus hack and how this might affect public sentiment towards digital ID and central bank digital currencies. We also discuss Englands economic choices which seem to be differing from Australia and America, give Anthony Albanese props for bringing forth the National ICAC, some more bad news on the covid front and much much more! 

Onto Something?

This week we discuss our recent Youtube strike, other platforms like Twitch alienating their original creators, malinformation and gender dysphoria in children. Lets go!

Fakes on a Plane

This week we cover the explosive confirmation from Pfizer that the jab was never tested on transmission prior to the rollout, we identify the early markers of a potential next big scam, Queenslands renewable energy spending spree and much more!
