    The Brownstone Show - Episode 16 - Aaron Kheriaty

    In this episode of The Brownstone Show, Jeffrey Tucker sits down with Dr. Aaron Kheriaty — psychiatrist, bioethicist, senior fellow at Brownstone Institute, and one of the most important dissident voices during the COVID era. Aaron Kheriaty was a lead plaintiff in the landmark Missouri v. Biden case (now settled), which exposed government-coordinated censorship on social media. He is also the author of The New Abnormal: The Rise of the Biosecurity State (2022) and the memoir Making the Cut. In this wide-ranging conversation, they discuss: • How COVID was never just about public health — it was a test run for a new system of surveillance, data extraction, and social control • The machinery of censorship that remains in place even after the “emergency” ended • Why AI represents the next evolution of control — and the profound ethical problems of holding algorithms accountable • Shadow banning, algorithmic manipulation, and the illusion of free speech on digital platforms • The Missouri v. Biden litigation, its settlement, and what it means for the future of the First Amendment • Section 230, common carriers, and how to restore genuine free speech online • The resurfacing of “climate lockdowns” and other forms of biosecurity-style control A deep, unflinching discussion about power, propaganda, technology, and resistance in the post-COVID world.

    The Brownstone Show - Episode 15 - Bobbie Anne Flower Cox

    The Brownstone Show: When Judges Go Rogue New York attorney Bobbie Anne Flower Cox joins Jeffrey Tucker to break down two shocking federal court rulings that struck down key early achievements of RFK Jr. at HHS. In one case, a Massachusetts judge dismantled changes to the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) and rolled back reforms to the childhood vaccine schedule. In another, an Oregon judge blocked HHS efforts to stop federal funding for gender transition procedures on minors. Cox, famous for successfully challenging New York’s quarantine camp law, explains how these decisions represent serious judicial overreach, violations of separation of powers, and activist judging that ignores the executive branch’s authority and the will of voters. Topics covered: * Conflicted vaccine committees and the explosion of the childhood schedule * Procedural excuses used to override agency reforms * The fight over “gender-affirming care” for children * Nationwide injunctions and district judges acting like super-legislators * What this means for the Trump administration’s health agenda A must-watch discussion on the Constitution, checks and balances, and the battle to restore sound science and parental rights.

    The Brownstone Show - Episode 13 - Jan Jekielek

    In this powerful edition of The Brownstone Show, Jeffrey A. Tucker sits down with Jan Jekielek, Senior Editor at The Epoch Times and host of the acclaimed American Thought Leaders series, to discuss Jan’s explosive new book Killed to Order: China’s Organ Harvesting Industry and the True Nature of America’s Biggest Adversary (released March 2026). What begins as an investigation into one of the most horrifying and under-reported crimes of our time—forced organ harvesting in China—quickly expands into a profound exploration of the battle between individual human dignity and utilitarian ideology (the “greatest good for the greatest number,” no matter the human cost). Jeffrey and Jan trace how the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) has industrialized organ procurement, often targeting prisoners of conscience (including Falun Gong practitioners, Uyghurs, Christians, and others), creating a chilling “kill-to-order” system sustained by coercion, secrecy, and global complicity. They connect these atrocities to broader philosophical and historical patterns: from Stalin’s infamous “you have to break a few eggs to make an omelet” mindset, to the rise of utilitarian bioethics that treats human beings as collections of parts rather than bearers of inherent rights. Key topics covered include: * The erosion of Hippocratic medicine (”do no harm”) in favor of collectivist “greater good” rationales seen during COVID and beyond * How communist regimes consistently justify mass atrocities in the name of party supremacy or societal progress * Parallels between China’s system and dangerous trends in Western societies: instrumentalization of the human person, shifting definitions of death, and technocratic control impulses * The role of propaganda in sustaining myths about communism and masking its murderous core * A survivor’s testimony and whistleblower evidence that make denial increasingly difficult * Practical action steps: new bipartisan U.S. legislation (e.g., the Falun Gong and Victims of Forced Organ Harvesting Protection Act reintroduced by Sen. Ted Cruz and others), grassroots efforts, and ending Western complicity through training programs, transplants, and silence This conversation is both a devastating exposé and a stirring defense of the foundational American idea that rights are endowed by the Creator—not granted (or revoked) by the state or the collective. Jeffrey and Jan reflect on the Declaration of Independence’s 250th anniversary, the dangers of forgetting its principles, and why confronting this evil is essential to preserving freedom everywhere. If you’ve ever wondered why abstract debates about human dignity, utilitarianism, and totalitarianism matter today, this episode makes the stakes painfully clear. 📖 Get the book: Killed to Order → https://killedtoorder.com Watch the full episode now and share widely. #ForcedOrganHarvesting #China #CCP #HumanRights #Utilitarianism #Communism #Bioethics #Freedom #DignityOfThePerson #BrownstoneInstitute #AmericanThoughtLeaders #KilledToOrder Subscribe to The Brownstone Show for more unfiltered conversations on liberty, public health, philosophy, and resisting authoritarian drift.

    The Brownstone Show - Episode 12 - Ed Dowd

    In this episode of The Brownstone Show, Jeffrey Tucker sits down with financial analyst and Brownstone Institute friend Ed Dowd to dissect the eerie parallels between the early days of the COVID-19 response in March 2020 and the escalating U.S.-Iran conflict in early 2026. Just as Trump pivoted from downplaying the virus (”it will pass”) to full-scale “eradication” mode—flattening the curve through sweeping federal power—this new war risks undermining the very economic gains Trump championed: low energy costs, affordability, and growth. Oil prices have surged dramatically (with Brent crude hovering around $100–$103 per barrel amid Strait of Hormuz disruptions and supply fears), gasoline is climbing nationwide, and markets are reeling from the shock. Dowd cuts through the noise: * The economy was already rolling over pre-conflict (revised Q4 GDP slashed to ~1.4–1.5%, AI/data center CapEx showing cracks due to power constraints and questionable ROI). * Private credit markets are cracking (JPMorgan marking down loans, retail investors fleeing illiquid assets). * Labor markets are weakening (broad job shedding across sectors in recent reports). * Housing is frozen (buyer strike, 30% overvaluation, massive gap between homes for sale vs. sold). * Global headwinds compound it all: China’s acute economic crisis (deflationary spiral, negative private investment growth, export dumping), demographics, and more. The discussion warns of demand destruction from high energy prices (deflationary in today’s context, unlike the 1970s), a potential AI/stock bubble burst, and the risks of prolonged conflict eroding Trump’s political capital ahead of midterms—echoing how COVID policies eroded trust and economic momentum. Tucker and Dowd emphasize skepticism toward “just trust the plan” narratives, highlighting how political overreach and miscalculations can cascade into profound economic pain. Whether you’re tracking markets, geopolitics, or lessons from recent history, this conversation offers sharp, data-driven insights into why this moment feels like déjà vu—and what it could mean for the U.S. and global economy.

    The Brownstone Show - Episode 11 - Jeffrey Tucker

    Exactly six years ago—March 12, 2020—the world changed forever. On this somber anniversary Jeffrey Tucker delivers a powerful, unfiltered retrospective on the day that launched global catastrophe: Trump's sudden Europe travel ban, the panicked rush of Americans flooding airports (shoulder-to-shoulder during "social distancing"), the CDC's unilateral pivot to mail-in ballots that forever altered elections, the activation of pandemic plans, school/business closures, and the beginning of lockdowns that wrecked economies, education, mental health, and civil liberties. Jeffrey traces how both parties share blame. Trump's shift in early March. Intensified measures under Biden. This reveals the deeper agenda: preparing populations for universal vaccination by suppressing natural immunity, banning early treatments, and enforcing compliance through fear and isolation. He connects the dots to lasting harms: illiteracy spikes, digital addiction, economic ruin, eroded trust in institutions, and the betrayal of core American freedoms. This isn't just history—it's a warning. We’re still recovering, and the lessons remain urgent. Watch to understand how we got here—and why we must never let it happen again. Don't give up hope.

    The Brownstone Show - Episode 10 - Leslie Manookian

    In this episode of the Brownstone Institute show, Jeffrey Tucker sits down with Leslie Manookian, Founder and President of the Health Freedom Defense Fund (HFDF), to discuss explosive new polling results that challenge mainstream narratives on vaccines, medical freedom, and public health policy. They reveal how previous polls (like those from Fabrizio) used loaded, biased questions to portray vaccine skepticism and medical choice as “political losers,” while their unbiased Zogby Strategies poll (conducted February 26-27, 2026) shows supermajorities of Americans supporting: * The right of adults to refuse vaccines * Doctors’ freedom to discuss vaccine concerns openly without backlash * No employment discrimination based on medical choices * Greater transparency, reduced food additives/dyes, phasing out pesticides, and prohibiting federal scientists from profiting off taxpayer-funded research The conversation exposes how polls are often manipulated by corporate interests, the erosion of trust in public health agencies, the explosion of the childhood vaccine schedule, conflicts of interest (e.g., Bayh-Dole Act patents), and the gaslighting of the public on these issues. They also highlight the MAHA (Make America Healthy Again) agenda’s broad popularity across parties and touch on related efforts like the COVID Justice Resolution petition. Key takeaway: You’re not fringe for believing in informed consent, personal medical autonomy, and transparency — the American people overwhelmingly agree when asked fair questions.

    The Brownstone Show - Episode 9 - Deborah Lurie

    In this heartfelt episode of The Brownstone Show, Jeffrey Tucker sits down with renowned film composer Deborah Lurie, the musical force behind major films including Safe Haven, Dear John, An Unfinished Life, Poms, Sydney White, Mozart and the Whale, and contributions to Annie, Spider-Man 3, Charlotte’s Web, and more. Deborah opens up about her extraordinary journey: discovering perfect pitch and synesthesia (she literally sees music in vivid colors), her unconventional path into film scoring without a traditional classical background, collaborating with legends like Danny Elfman, and the deeply collaborative (and sometimes ego-challenging) nature of writing for cinema versus concert halls. The conversation takes a sobering turn as Deborah shares how the COVID-19 lockdowns and vaccine mandates devastated the artistic community, shutting down orchestras, theaters, Broadway, outdoor festivals like Tanglewood, and live performances for nearly two years. She discusses the career impact she personally experienced, the loss of income for musicians paid per gig/rehearsal, the arbitrary “non-essential” classification of art and music, and the divisive proof-of-vaccination requirements that followed. This is a candid reflection on freedom, creativity, resilience, and what was lost when governments and institutions silenced live culture.
