    “Your TV Is Watching You” — Ken Paxton on Big Tech Tracking | DSH #1824

    Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton joins us at AmFest for a rapid-fire conversation on the biggest power fights happening right now: big tech, big pharma, censorship, data privacy, and the limits of federal authority. Paxton explains why he believes tech platforms shape elections through algorithms, how Section 230 protects platforms while they still “curate,” and why he says states have to step in when Washington won’t. He also talks about lawsuits involving Meta and biometric data, his broader legal battles with past administrations, and why he thinks the next wave of conflict is over control of information. We also touch on the cultural tension on campuses, the role of faith and purpose for young people, and why Paxton believes political movements often grow after major national tragedies. 🎯 What You’ll Learn 📺 How smart TVs allegedly monetize viewing behavior (and why lawsuits follow) 🧠 How algorithms can shape what people see—and what they don’t see ⚖️ Why Section 230 keeps coming up in big tech legal battles 🧬 What “biometric data” means (and why states sue over it) 🏛️ Why states vs. federal power is the core fight in many lawsuits 🎓 Why campus culture is becoming a political battleground 🗳️ How Paxton frames Texas politics heading into elections ⏱️ Chapters (timestamps) 0:00 — “You’re being watched through TV screens” 0:22 — Ken Paxton joins us at AmFest 0:52 — The message he plans to speak about 1:15 — Why young people became the mission 1:52 — “Education is misguided” (his view) 2:30 — Threats, safety, and continuing to show up 3:10 — “My job is to protect Texans” 3:38 — Lawsuits vs. Obama & Biden administrations 5:29 — “Most corrupt industry?” Big tech + big pharma 8:43 — Meta, biometrics, and the data privacy fight 🎙️ APPLY OR CONNECT 👉 Interested in being a guest?

    Naveen Jain: Your DNA Isn’t the Problem… Your Lifestyle Is | DSH #1823

    In this wide-ranging conversation, entrepreneur and Viome founder Naveen Jain breaks down why most chronic disease isn’t caused by your DNA — but by your daily choices. After losing his father to stage 4 pancreatic cancer, Naveen shifted his focus from space and fusion energy to transforming healthcare through AI and gene expression testing. He explains why “healthy food” isn’t universal, why blindly taking supplements can backfire, and how your microbiome may be controlling inflammation, brain health, and immune function. The discussion expands beyond health into purpose, longevity, consciousness, brain-to-brain communication, and whether technology will eventually allow humans to upload skills — or even merge minds through AI. This is a big-picture conversation about health, personal responsibility, and the future of humanity. 🎯 What You’ll Learn • 🧬 Why 95% of chronic disease is driven by lifestyle — not genetics • 🦠 How your microbiome influences inflammation and overall health • 🥑 Why “healthy foods” can be harmful depending on your biology • 💊 The risks of taking supplements without personalized testing • 😰 How stress shuts down digestion and weakens immunity • 😴 Why sleep quality matters more than sleep quantity • 🎯 How purpose and community impact longevity • 🤖 How AI is transforming personalized healthcare • 🧠 The ethics of brain-to-brain communication • 🚀 Why healthspan matters more than lifespan ⏱️ Chapters 0:00 — Brain waves, remote action & ethical questions 0:36 — Finding purpose and redefining success 1:29 — Why success isn’t about money 2:23 — Raising curious, driven children 3:14 — Social media and the illusion of overnight success 6:41 — Health vs wealth: the tradeoff people regret 8:02 — Diet myths: keto, fasting & “healthy” foods 11:02 — Losing his father & starting Viome 12:27 — DNA vs RNA: gene expression explained 15:54 — Microbiome testing, AI & early cancer detection 🎙️ APPLY OR CONNECT 👉 Interested in being a guest?

    Oliver Niehaus: “If Due Process Goes Away, Anyone Can Be Deported” | DSH #1822

    In this conversation from AmFest, political debater Oliver Niehaus breaks down why feminism still matters today, how online media ecosystems shape political beliefs, and why discussions around violence, gun control, and free speech have become so polarized. Oliver explains how social media algorithms reward extremes, why feminism is often misunderstood, and why he believes defending equal rights is compatible with masculinity. The conversation also explores political violence, gun policy, poverty, and the deeper root causes behind crime — moving beyond surface-level talking points. We close with a sharp analysis of Donald Trump’s second term, including tariffs, immigration, free speech concerns, and why anti-establishment messaging continues to resonate with voters. This is a calm, long-form discussion focused on ideas — not outrage — designed to challenge assumptions and encourage deeper thinking across political lines. 🎯 What You’ll Learn • 🧠 Why feminism is often misrepresented in online debates • ⚖️ How social media algorithms amplify extreme political narratives • 🗣️ The difference between advocacy and political violence • 🔍 Why gun violence discussions often ignore root causes like poverty • 🏛️ A nuanced critique of Trump’s second term and anti-establishment politics ⏱️ Chapters 0:00 — Do men and women really have equal rights today? 1:00 — How Oliver became known through online debates 2:10 — Why feminism is often framed as “anti-male” 3:25 — Masculinity, advocacy, and defending women’s rights 4:00 — Political violence and media narratives 5:10 — What crime statistics actually show 6:50 — Gun control vs. root causes of violence 8:00 — Poverty, policy, and systemic contributors to crime 9:40 — Free speech, immigration, and due process 11:40 — Trump’s appeal and why anti-establishment messages work 🎙️ APPLY OR CONNECT 👉 Interested in being a guest?

    In this episode, we sit down with Phil Vella in Las Vegas to have an honest, no-BS conversation about testosterone, peptides, GLP-1 weight-loss drugs, and the line between real health optimization and dangerous social-media experimentation. Phil breaks down why testosterone levels are crashing in young men, why fertility should never be ignored, and how drugs like Ozempic can be life-saving when used correctly — and harmful when misused. We also get into the business side of modern hormone care, why most influencers shouldn’t be giving medical advice, and how real optimization starts with blood work, guidance, and accountability.

    Jake Rattlesnake;. Why Free Speech Feels Impossible Outside the U.S. | DSH #1818

    Jake from Rattlesnake TV joins the show for a wide-ranging, uncensored conversation on immigration, culture, free speech, religion, and the future of the West. Coming from Australia, Jake explains why he believes the United States still offers something rare: open debate, strong faith communities, and the ability to speak freely without immediate government or social retaliation. The discussion spans Europe’s immigration challenges, differences between American and Australian culture, Christianity vs secular worldviews, and why debates — not censorship — matter more than ever. The conversation then shifts into deeper philosophical territory, exploring free will, morality, faith, consciousness, and whether modern society has lost its spiritual foundation. Regardless of where you stand, this episode challenges listeners to think critically, question assumptions, and engage with opposing ideas rather than shutting them down. This is a long-form, high-signal discussion meant for people who want context, nuance, and real conversation — not soundbites. What You’ll Learn 👇 🌍 How immigration debates differ between the U.S., Europe, and Australia 🗣️ Why free speech laws vary so dramatically across Western countries 🇦🇺 Why Australia feels less tolerant of dissenting opinions ✝️ How Jake moved from atheism to Christianity through logic 🧠 The limits of materialism in explaining consciousness and morality ⚖️ Free will vs destiny — philosophical and theological views 📚 Why debates matter more than censorship 🏛️ Cultural differences between Europe, America, and Australia 🤝 How shared values shape stable societies 🔍 Why questioning your own beliefs is a critical life skill Chapters (Timestamps) 0:00 — Immigration, Media, and Cultural Narratives 0:49 — Jake from Rattlesnake TV Joins the Show 1:42 — Why He Wants to Move to the U.S. 4:16 — Dating, Culture, and Feminism in Australia 6:17 — Free Speech Limits Outside the U.S. 7:20 — Immigration Issues Across Europe 12:51 — Christianity vs Secular Worldviews 19:24 — From Atheism to Faith Through Logic 25:09 — Karma, Morality, and Human Behavior 41:18 — Free Will vs Destiny Explained 🎙️ APPLY OR CONNECT 👉 Interested in being a guest?
