    Paul Burgess: “Explaining Every Temperature Change from 1983 to 2025” | Tom Nelson Pod #365

    Paul Burgess discusses his research on how oceanic pulses (like the ENSO and Indian Dipole) and solar variability contribute to global temperatures. His study, spanning from 1900 to the present, indicates a close match between his model and satellite temperature data, refuting high climate sensitivity assumptions and suggesting natural variability as a major factor. Burgess invites critiques of his 138-page paper, emphasizing the need for accurate, observational science over consensus-based modeling. 00:00 Introduction and Background 02:10 Model Validation and Results 21:26 Independent Verification and Model Testing 24:49 Challenges to Climate Sensitivity Assumptions 25:43 Critique of Climate Alarmism 41:16 Understanding Deep Ocean Heat Dynamics 41:56 Heat Transfer and Ocean Layers 42:34 Data and Models on Ocean Warming 43:20 Heat Storage in Ocean Layers 44:23 Challenges in Deep Ocean Data 45:05 Mathematical Models and Energy Balance 46:38 Regional Ocean Temperature Trends 48:21 Implications of Deep Ocean Heat Uptake 49:01 Concluding Remarks and Future Work 49:18 Audience Interaction and Feedback 50:14 Predicting Future Climate Trends 56:10 Personal Insights and Broader Implications 01:02:21 Electric Vehicles and Energy Policies 01:07:43 Challenges in Scientific Debate Email: svsuliere@gmail.com Explaining Every Temperature Change from 1983 to 2025 - My Most Important Work Ever: https://substack.com/home/post/p-182701114 Climate Realism by Paul Burgess: https://www.youtube.com/@ClimateRealism ========= Slides, summaries, references, and transcripts of my podcasts: https://tomn.substack.com/p/podcast-summaries My Linktree: https://linktr.ee/tomanelson1

    Chris Snowdon: “The Nanny State” | Tom Nelson Pod #364

    Chris Snowden discusses the realistic view he holds towards public health regulations, particularly focusing on vaping, alcohol, and the nanny state. He criticizes the misinformed and overly restrictive policies, such as Australia's vaping ban and public health misinformation, positing that these are driven by zealots and not based on true public health benefits. Snowden also addresses the unintended negative consequences of these policies and proposes a more libertarian approach, advocating for individual choice and regulation that ensures basic consumer safety rather than outright prohibition. 00:00 Introduction to Chris Snowden and the Nanny State 00:23 The Debate on Vaping Regulations 00:56 Public Health and Misinformation on Vaping 05:00 Global Perspectives on Vaping Bans 08:02 Nicotine: Myths and Potential Benefits 12:01 COVID-19 and Nicotine: Unexpected Findings 16:02 Nanny State Regulations and Public Health 18:35 The Economics of Public Health Policies 28:17 The War on Obesity and COVID-19 32:00 Anti-Obesity Policies and Advertising Bans 32:56 Public Perception of Advertising 34:30 Supermarket Calorie Regulations 37:39 Tobacco Prohibition and Smoke-Free Generation 39:44 Political Shifts and Public Sentiment 43:02 Net Zero and Climate Policies 45:00 The War on Pubs 51:27 Moderate Drinking vs. Public Health Dogma 54:45 Public Health Overreach and Ideology 01:04:23 Conclusion and Book Plug https://www.christophersnowdon.com/ https://x.com/cjsnowdon https://snowdon.substack.com/ https://nannystateindex.org/ Killjoys: A Critique of Paternalism: https://a.co/d/7sDeNkq ========= Slides, summaries, references, and transcripts of my podcasts: https://tomn.substack.com/p/podcast-summaries My Linktree: https://linktr.ee/tomanelson1

    James Kamis:  Warm blobs generated by geological activity | Tom Nelson Pod #363

    James Kamis discusses his theory that oceanic warm blobs, such as the one in the northern Pacific Ocean, are primarily caused by geological activities like underwater volcanic eruptions and tectonic movements rather than atmospheric conditions. Drawing on evidence from recent high-resolution ocean floor mapping and historical data on seismic and volcanic activities, Kamis highlights the significant role of geological features in heating ocean waters. He also challenges the mainstream view held by NASA and NOAA, advocating for a more comprehensive consideration of geological factors in climate studies. 00:00 Introduction to the Ocean Warming Hotspot 00:48 Understanding the Warm Blob 01:45 Geological Features of the Ocean Floor 05:06 The Pacific Ring of Fire 07:00 Mapping the Ocean Floor 08:40 Volcanic Activity and Climate Impact 10:21 Geological Activity in Japan 15:19 The Kamchatka Peninsula 18:23 Characteristics of the Warm Blob 23:29 Cool Blob Phenomenon 27:21 Other Warm Blobs Across the Ocean 28:56 Heat Transfer to the Arctic Ocean 30:01 Volcanic Activity in the Pacific Ocean 30:51 Axial Volcano and Seismic Activity 33:15 El Nino and Geological Evidence 36:50 Gulf Stream and Geological Impacts 40:38 Geological Theories and Predictions 47:24 Books and Further Reading 52:21 Final Thoughts and Acknowledgements James Kamis articles: https://climatechangedispatch.com/?s=kamis June 2023 book by James E.

    Randall Bock: “How to Fix Science” | Tom Nelson Pod #362

    Randall Bock discusses the prevalence of misinformation and hierarchical biases in the scientific community, using examples like COVID-19, Zika, and peer review's limitations. He argues that current systems encourage conformity and lack rigorous validation, proposing a new model where scientific claims are evaluated similar to sports, incorporating transparency, prediction markets, and replication bounties. Bock emphasizes the need for open inquiry and structural changes to prevent entrenched scientific gatekeeping and improve overall research quality. 00:00 Introduction and Guest Introduction 01:03 Critique of Dr. Fauci and Peter Hotez 01:44 The Dual Nature of Science 02:37 Science and Sports Analogies 05:07 The Role of Peer Review in Science 05:37 Zika and Misinformation 08:20 Scientific Guilds and Their Impact 12:26 Proposed Solutions for Scientific Integrity 22:43 Historical Examples and Peer Review Critique 27:43 Climate Science and Publication Challenges 28:57 Payola and Scientific Authority 30:21 Peter Hotez and Anti-Science Critique 31:14 Fauci 1.0 vs. Fauci 2.0 32:10 The Soviet Influence on Science 33:31 The Tenure Trap in Academia 35:23 The Guild System in Science 36:07 The Problem with Peer Review 40:59 Proposing a New Scientific Framework 42:26 The Role of Reputation in Science 47:41 Challenges and Solutions in Open Science 49:07 Final Thoughts and Future Directions Peer Review Is a Guild: https://substack.com/home/post/p-180649436 How to Fix Science: https://dailysceptic.org/2025/12/12/how-to-fix-science/ The Hidden Cost of Mental Health Parity: https://brownstone.org/articles/the-hidden-cost-of-mental-health-parity/

    John Droz: “Teaching critical thinking in K-12” | Tom Nelson Pod #360

    John Droz, an independent physicist with over 40 years of experience in state and national issues, discusses the severe deficiencies in the K-12 education system, particularly the infiltration of left-leaning propaganda and the suppression of critical thinking. He highlights the adoption of Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) by 49 states, which he argues undermine the traditional scientific method and promote conformity. Droz proposes a solution involving the formal teaching of critical thinking in K-12 education and a reformation of the Federal Department of Education to serve an advisory role rather than a regulatory one. 00:00 Introduction and Guest Background 02:07 Critical Thinking and Its Importance 07:18 Differences Between Left and Right 30:47 Focus on Science Curriculum 37:53 The Role of State Boards in Education 42:48 The Origins of Common Core 43:22 Introduction of Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) 45:28 Critique of NGSS and the Scientific Method 50:56 The Push Against Critical Thinking 53:17 Adoption of NGSS by States 57:23 The Need for Critical Thinking in Education 01:04:07 Efforts to Implement Critical Thinking Standards 01:13:53 The Role of Federal and State Education Departments 01:20:44 Conclusion and Final Thoughts http://wiseenergy.org/ https://election-integrity.info/ https://c19science.info/ https://criticallythinking.substack.com/ John’s email: aaprjohn@northnet.org ========= Slides, summaries, references, and transcripts of my podcasts: https://tomn.substack.com/p/podcast-summaries My Linktree: https://linktr.ee/tomanelson1
