13d ago1:27:31

1:27:31

We start off discussing climate change, where Nic makes a startling apology. But dig a little deeper and maybe its not quite as we think… You’ll need the links below, including the fascinating US Government report from the early ’70s. https://www.noaa.gov/news/fact-check-debunking-weather-modification-claims https://www.fema.gov/disaster/recover/ru…

On this edition of the podcast, we cover a lot of ground. Of course that’s code for tangents on tangents.

The Economics of Billionaires 59:43

3M ago59:43

59:43

In this episode, Andrew looks and the combined worth of all billionaires in the UK, and just what that cash would provide if the government, say, just took it all. It’s the type of rhetoric the left use all the time: “We just need to tax the billionaires”. Well, we take it to the extreme and look into what we’d get if we didn’t just tax them, but b…

Just How Suspicious Was The Trump Shooting? 2:23:27

4M ago2:23:27

2:23:27

No matter how you look at it, something isn’t right. Of course the official narrative is the lone gunman. Its become cliché for American assassination attempts, and is exactly what the intelligence services want everyone to think. But what about multiple shooters? Why did it take so long for the secret service to get Trump away? Why not cover the r…

Terrain Theory, Covid Memories and AI Kate 2:14:21

2:14:21

Andrew finally gets ill, but upon analysis, we can’t help but conclude that his experience still supports terrain theory.

Why Are Some People Never Ill? 1:47:45

8M ago1:47:45

1:47:45

This week, Andrew muses why he’s never ill. At least, not for a few years. He was never ill that often, but what changed in 2021? He certainly changed a few things about his lifestyle, but then so did Nic, and Nic has been ill a few times, recently. We decide to tackle this scientifically and try to ascertain what it is that Andy now does that prev…

This episode, we talk about a whole bunch of stuff. But, unintentionally almost all of it leads to psychology. Dark psychology. We talk about religion, and how it can incentivise evil. We talk about the spread of good & evil in society and why you should probably expect the same spread at the elite level. Or at the very least, you shouldn’t expect …
