    Restoring Free Speech in Academia: Jay Bhattacharya

    I recently had the pleasure of attending a Pandemic Planning conference at Stanford University. It was really the first of its kind, in that it brought together a wide range of voices on the topic in an academic setting, and it was held under the auspices of the new Stanford President Jonathan Levin. “I think it’s expanded the range of things that are allowed to be said in polite society, if you will,” says Dr. Jay Bhattacharya, a professor of health policy and the lead organizer of the conference. “The purpose of the conference was to essentially open the floodgates of these kinds of events taking place everywhere around the world,” he says.

    An Economic Storm May Be Coming—Here’s What Trump Can Do About It: Jeffrey Tucker

    We’re launching a special “American Thought Leaders” series during this post-election transition period in which I will be interviewing topic matter experts and former and potential future Trump administration officials to understand what the incoming U.S. administration’s policies in 2025 may look like—for America, Canada, and the world. Today, I’m sitting down with Jeffrey Tucker, founder and president of the Brownstone Institute. He’s also a columnist at The Epoch Times, where he writes daily about economics, technology, and culture.

    Death on Demand? Wesley J. Smith Explains the Assisted Suicide Movement

    Sponsor special: Up to $2,500 of FREE silver AND a FREE safe on qualifying orders - Call 855-862-3377 or text “AMERICAN” to 6-5-5-3-2 “When a country or a state legalizes assisted suicide or euthanasia, it can no longer call itself anti-suicide, because it specifically approves some suicides. ... It’s a very dangerous movement that is normalizing this kind of approach to dying as opposed to natural death.” In this episode, I sit down with Wesley J. Smith, a lawyer, public speaker, award-winning author, and chair of the Discovery Institute Center on Human Exceptionalism. “We’re seeing in Canada also the beginning of a situation where patients who have a tough time getting an oncologist because of such a long waiting list, ask to be killed because they can’t get quality medical care,” Smith says. We dive into his work on bioethics and euthanasia, better known today as “medically-assisted suicide.” “Assisted suicide and euthanasia is a symptom, not a cause, and there’s a deep nihilism that seems to have infected society on many levels,” Smith says.

    Exposing an Illegal Chinese Immigration Hub Run by a CCP Police Officer: Philip Lenczycki

    Sponsor special: Up to $2,500 of FREE silver AND a FREE safe on qualifying orders - Call 855-862-3377 or text “AMERICAN” to 6-5-5-3-2 “In the last four years, there has been an unprecedented surge in Chinese illegal immigration, so an over 1100 percent increase. … There is a large underground economy tied to this network,” says Philip Lenczycki, a senior investigative reporter at the Daily Caller News Foundation. He has been investigating Chinese illegal immigration networks, in particular an online Telegram channel with thousands of users that has apparently served as a hub facilitating illegal crossings with travel guides, specific border crossing points, detailed routes, and scripts for interacting with Border Patrol agents and applying for asylum. Lenczycki discovered the channel was run by a self-identified Chinese cyber police agent. Lenczycki has also found key figures in the network promoting prostitution and sex trafficking in the United States. In this episode, he breaks down his key findings.

    What Is Psywar? Dr. Robert Malone Explains

    In this episode, I sit down with scientist and physician Dr. Robert Malone to discuss his latest book, “PsyWar,” co-authored with his wife, Dr. Jill Malone. “Someone is making a decision about how people should think, what they should think, how they should feel, how they should behave in the world without consulting them, and you’re using a technology that is so powerful and effective that you’re literally reprogramming their mind without their consent,” says Dr. Malone. “The battleground is your mind.” How are powerful forces using technology to propagandize and shape behavior? And what effect is it having on society? “We used to have salons, we used to read books, we used to discuss things with each other, and now we just kind of sit by the sidelines and shoot spitballs,” says Dr. Malone. “Everybody agrees that we’ve become more and more splintered and fragmented, and that’s not a good thing, and it mostly benefits our adversaries.” Views expressed in this video are opinions of the host and the guest, and do not necessarily reflect the views of The Epoch Times.

    China Uncensored: Exposing the CCP’s Narrative Warfare and Global Influence—Chris Chappell and Shelley Zhang

    Will the World Lock Down Again in the Next Pandemic? Dr. Kevin Bardosh

    “The COVID response caused much more harm than good. That’s my position on that, and I came to it by analyzing and reviewing huge amounts of academic research on all sorts of issues: excess mortality, effects on medical services, mental health, effects on the economy, poverty, food insecurity, education.” In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Kevin Bardosh. He is a medical anthropologist and the director of Collateral Global, a London-based think tank focused on improving pandemic response around the world. “Public health has always had this tension between the authoritarian position, and then the more classical liberal, civil society philosophy,” he says. Four years on, what have we learned about our collective response to the COVID crisis? If another pandemic happened tomorrow, how would our societies react? “There still is this very strong industry—a pandemic industry—that thinks that they did a great job, and that people that are criticizing them are spreading misinformation,” Bardosh says. “And I think that that really needs to change.” We discuss the global fallout from the COVID lockdowns, from rising obesity to rising poverty. “All educational gains since 2000 around the world were wiped out with the school closures,” Bardosh says.

    N.S. Lyons: The Growing Impulse Towards Societal Engineering

    In certain ways China and the United States—despite being vastly different—are slowly converging, with technocratic managerial regimes playing an increasingly important role in each society, argues N.S. Lyons in his essay “The China Convergence.” Lyons’ writings can be found on his Substack titled “The Upheaval.” Views expressed in this video are opinions of the host and the guest, and do not necessarily reflect the views of The Epoch Times.
