    159. Why They Want You Numb-Exposing The Mental Health Industrial Complex

    As America responded with a mandate for Donald Trump, Dr. McFillin issues a powerful call to action: Making America Healthy Again demands more than policy change—it requires reclaiming our fundamental emotional sovereignty. In this compelling episode, he exposes how the modern mental health system has conditioned us to fear natural emotional responses, creating cycles of dependency and spiritual disconnection. Dr. McFillin argues that depression and anxiety aren't disorders but transformative spiritual forces that have been pathologized through decades of pharmaceutical marketing. Drawing from ancient wisdom, he reveals how suppressing these emotional states serves a broader system of control, disconnecting people from their inner guidance and spiritual power. The COVID crisis, he suggests, demonstrated how medical authorities can shape public behavior through fear. The path forward requires revolutionizing our approach to emotional wellness. Instead of medicating away our pain, we must recognize these experiences as catalysts for personal and societal transformation. Dr. McFillin outlines how emotional resilience—not emotional suppression—builds the strong, discerning citizens needed to preserve American values and freedoms. This episode provides a roadmap for breaking free from the "mental health matrix" and restoring our natural capacity for growth through emotional awareness.

    158. The Disturbing Truth Behind The COVID-19 Vaccine Clinical Trials w/ Amy Kelly

    "Safe and effective." With these three words, President Biden and public health officials launched an unprecedented campaign to vaccinate the American public with a novel mRNA technology. Today, we know those words were demonstrably false. In a groundbreaking interview on the Radically Genuine Podcast, Amy Kelly, Chief Operations Officer of Daily Clout and director of the Pfizer Documents Analysis Project, reveals the chilling truth behind the clinical trials. Working with thousands of medical and scientific experts, Kelly's team analyzed over 450,000 pages of Pfizer's own data – documents the FDA initially tried to hide from the public for 75 years. What they uncovered is nothing short of shocking.

    154. Breaking Free From Psychiatric Drug Dependency w/ Pharmacist Dr. Shawn Gill

    An alarming number of individuals find themselves dependent on antidepressants and psychiatric medications, desperately seeking guidance on how to safely discontinue their use. The general medical community has failed to assist people in safely getting off these drugs. The dependency can create severe withdrawal symptoms. Most doctors have no clue how to get their patients off safely keeping them in a cycle of drug dependency. The worst of prescribers will frame the withdrawal symptoms as worsening "depression" and justification for staying on drugs. On Episode 154 of the Radically Genuine Podcast Dr. Roger McFillin dives into the topic of deprescribing and tapering off psychiatric drugs with a pharmacist. Dr. Shawn Gill, PharmD, is a pharmacist, writer, podcaster, and entrepreneur dedicated to sparking change in healthcare through deprescribing.
