    #438 Dr. Thomas Lodi - “There Is No Such Thing As Disease”

    Zuby is joined by Dr. Thomas Lodi, a physician trained in internal medicine at Columbia who walked out of his oncology fellowship after six months, convinced the treatments were harming patients. He now runs An Oasis of Healing in Arizona and four centres in Thailand, practising what he calls integrative oncology. Lodi argues that Western society has medicalised life itself, that naming a condition turns a bodily process into an enemy to be fought, and that the disease model was shaped by Rockefeller’s Flexner Report to create a point of sale. He makes the case for understanding cancer as a metabolic condition rather than a genetic one, drawing on Otto Warburg’s Nobel-winning work and Thomas Seyfried’s cybrid experiments. Zuby pushes back on germ theory. They also cover the fear response to a cancer diagnosis and what Lodi calls amygdala hijacking, the thymus gland’s role in ageing immunity, EMF and calcium channels, why he believes the low-fat consensus is backwards, and therapeutic fasting. — Real Talk with Zuby is an independent podcast.

    Zuby is joined by Marcos Schotgues, Latin America correspondent for The Epoch Times and editor in chief of Epoch Times Brazil. Marcos spent seven days reporting from inside Venezuela after Nicolás Maduro was captured by the United States. The resulting documentary, Venezuela After Maduro, has just won Best Documentary at the New York Film Awards. The conversation covers how one of the richest countries in Latin America became the source of the largest refugee exodus in modern history, why Venezuela became a national security threat to the US through its links to Iran, Russia and China, and the cartel that ran the government itself.

    #436 Leon Wankum - Why Houses Keep Getting More Expensive

    Zuby is joined by investor, real estate developer, and author of the new book Digital Real Estate, Leon Wankum. Leon wrote his master's thesis on Bitcoin back in 2015, then spent the next six years developing property. Leon explains why Bitcoin is the digital counterpart to the largest store of value on earth. The conversation breaks down why money loses purchasing power by design, what actually happened in 1971, and why real estate, not gold, is the right benchmark for understanding Bitcoin's potential. Leon explains the four-year halving cycle against the 18-year property cycle, why crashes are healthy, and why he thinks the most financially successful people are the hardest to convince. They also dig into why inflation creates a convincing illusion of prosperity, how innovation financed by credit can never make things cheaper, what Leon believes is the real threat to Bitcoin, and why the solution to the housing crisis is not cheaper loans. — Real Talk with Zuby is an independent podcast.

    #435 Katharine Birbalsingh - Britain's Strictest Headmistress

    Zuby is joined by Katharine Birbalsingh, the headmistress of London's Michaela Community School who is often called 'Britain's strictest headmistress'. Katharine argues that the damage done to children during the 'peak woke' years of 2020-2022 is permanent, and that anyone who was in education during that period emerged with a worldview shaped by victimhood and identity politics. She explains why you have to raise your children as if you are going to war and how the enemy is everywhere. She also offers parenting advice on reading, screens, and choosing a school. — Real Talk with Zuby is an independent podcast.

    #434 Austin Petersen - Former Presidential Candidate Admits "I Was Wrong About Trump"

    Zuby is joined by former Libertarian presidential candidate and host of 'Wake Up America', Austin Petersen. Austin opens up about the things he got badly wrong, from Donald Trump to drug legalisation, and why he was booed on a Libertarian debate stage for saying it should be illegal to sell heroin to children. The conversation covers audience capture, why big podcasters rarely change their minds, and how fatherhood reshapes one's politics. Zuby and Austin also discuss the cultural aspects of liberty, why the Gulf states may be the most economically libertarian countries, and if the American Dream is still achievable for most.

    Zuby is joined by "the most positive man on the internet", Tyler Todt.

Eight and a half years later he's in the best shape of his life, financially free, and coaching thousands of men.

    #431 Franklin Camargo - How Socialism Destroyed Venezuela

    Zuby is joined by political and cultural commentator Franklin Camargo, who was born and raised in Venezuela and now lives in the United States.
