- 0:30Speaker 1: My name is Jim. This is Jim Wilfare the Battle
- 0:33Speaker 1: of Ideas. I didn't just by the way, I don't
- 0:35Speaker 1: have any notes because I've spoken to you so often.
- 0:38Speaker 2: That okay, well we'll just swing it it flows have
- 0:43Speaker 2: notes either, But I don't know what you want to
- 0:46Speaker 2: talk about. I guess we'll find out gardening. We could
- 0:49Speaker 2: do that. I'm a real expert in that area.
- 0:53Speaker 1: All right, Roman vis, Jiannick. Thank you for joining me
- 0:55Speaker 1: in the Strangers.
- 0:57Speaker 2: Thanks for having me again. How's everything?
- 1:00Speaker 1: You know? You have been on my show so many times.
- 1:03Speaker 1: I think you probably now in the top five.
- 1:06Speaker 2: Maybe do I get frequent flyer miles or something?
- 1:11Speaker 1: Well? Yes, but but why would you want to fly
- 1:15Speaker 1: to South Africa.
- 1:17Speaker 2: I'm in the US, so I don't know. I'm thinking
- 1:19Speaker 2: about it.
- 1:22Speaker 1: You haven't been to you haven't been to the African continent,
- 1:24Speaker 1: have you?
- 1:25Speaker 2: No?
- 1:26Speaker 1: Okay, you need to change that. You need to change that.
- 1:29Speaker 2: We'll see what happens. I don't know. Yeah, maybe there's
- 1:32Speaker 2: a lot of places I'd like to go to.
- 1:34Speaker 1: But yeah, I mean this is this is the ultimate thing. Though.
- 1:36Speaker 1: When you have a few choices, why would you why
- 1:39Speaker 1: would you go to Africa? But I will say this,
- 1:41Speaker 1: though we don't have much to offer, but if you
- 1:44Speaker 1: do want.
- 1:44Speaker 2: A teology, I want to go now.
- 1:46Speaker 1: But if you do want a wildlife experience, there are
- 1:49Speaker 1: very few places in the world that can give you
- 1:51Speaker 1: that here. I think you can probably get that in Kenya,
- 1:55Speaker 1: maybe a couple of other African countries, but I mean, genuinely,
- 1:58Speaker 1: Africa is where you'll find that experience.
- 2:00Speaker 2: I know there's a lot of wildlife here in the malls,
- 2:03Speaker 2: just the pretty wild. Now I don't know what I
- 2:08Speaker 2: don't know what life forms they are, but you know,
- 2:10Speaker 2: it's pretty exciting. I don't really go to malls very much.
- 2:14Speaker 1: Well, listen, Roman, there's absolutely no segue. Yeah, but I'll
- 2:17Speaker 1: just randomly go into what I wanted to chat to
- 2:20Speaker 1: you about, which of course generally links to vaccines. And
- 2:24Speaker 1: as you know, and I've said this almost every time
- 2:26Speaker 1: you've been on my show, and I love saying it
- 2:28Speaker 1: because it really is a great thing, but your work
- 2:31Speaker 1: has profoundly impacted not just my life, but my wife's life,
- 2:35Speaker 1: and most importantly, my son's life because he's not vaccinated,
- 2:40Speaker 1: and my upcoming son, who is due to arrive later
- 2:44Speaker 1: this year, will also not be vac.
- 2:45Speaker 2: Congratulations, that's exciting.
- 2:47Speaker 1: Thank you very much.
- 2:48Speaker 2: So I'm sorry, when does you do September?
- 2:50Speaker 1: September? Yeah, boy, I'll have two boys, just just a little
- 2:55Speaker 1: week clear.
- 2:56Speaker 2: Great. Although, having said that, the tre factor, I'm.
- 3:00Speaker 1: Going to wait until they turn seven before they tell
- 3:03Speaker 1: us what gender they are.
- 3:06Speaker 2: Oh, that's good. You can you can check under the hood, though,
- 3:09Speaker 2: you know, yeah, you can. Look, it's okay.
- 3:13Speaker 1: Apparently that's a terrible determinant.
- 3:17Speaker 2: It is. Oh, I don't know, maybe it's not. You know,
- 3:19Speaker 2: I don't know.
- 3:20Speaker 1: This is this is the this is this is the
- 3:22Speaker 1: post modern area we live in. Now, you know that
- 3:25Speaker 1: you know that that little thing under the hood doesn't
- 3:28Speaker 1: say anything about the kids gender?
- 3:31Speaker 2: Uh? Yeah, I guess sometimes it doesn't because you can
- 3:34Speaker 2: have both sometimes rarely and all that kind of stuff.
- 3:36Speaker 2: But you know, generally it's a pretty good indicator.
- 3:38Speaker 1: I would say, generally speaking throughout.
- 3:40Speaker 2: History, generally speaking. Did you say genderly, Well.
- 3:44Speaker 1: That's a that's a missed opportunity.
- 3:48Speaker 2: That sounds like another cartoon.
- 3:50Speaker 1: Man, I can't believe I missed that. No, but listen again,
- 3:56Speaker 1: dissolving illusions has been I've actually I've actually got Yeah,
- 4:01Speaker 1: hang on, let me grab.
- 4:01Speaker 2: Them, because its just into the void.
- 4:05Speaker 1: Because not only have I got uh, the main the
- 4:10Speaker 1: main one, which is the tenth anniversary by the way,
- 4:12Speaker 1: I think that.
- 4:13Speaker 2: Is but I know, but be crazy, but because it's.
- 4:16Speaker 1: So thick, I got that one too.
- 4:21Speaker 2: Yeah. Well it was all going to go in one
- 4:22Speaker 2: and I was like, well, that's not going to happen.
- 4:24Speaker 2: It would have been this thick.
- 4:26Speaker 1: Yeah. So I've got the I've got the main book,
- 4:28Speaker 1: and then I've got the book that's basically just all
- 4:30Speaker 1: the references.
- 4:31Speaker 2: Have you paged through the companion?
- 4:33Speaker 1: Yes?
- 4:34Speaker 2: Yeah, there's like insane quotes in there and insane timelines
- 4:38Speaker 2: and just like, well wow, I was The reason I
- 4:41Speaker 2: wrote that is because I had a timeline for the
- 4:43Speaker 2: original Dissolving Illusions, and then I stumbled across it when
- 4:47Speaker 2: I started working on this other project, and I was like, oh,
- 4:50Speaker 2: I forgot about the timeline. It was already like forty
- 4:54Speaker 2: pages long, so I figured, well, I should update that
- 4:57Speaker 2: for some reason, and then it just ended up I
- 4:59Speaker 2: have all the quotes, maybe I should put them all
- 5:01Speaker 2: into another book.
- 5:02Speaker 1: So I did the thing with Dissolving Illusions though, and
- 5:07Speaker 1: just to be clear, it's you and Susanne Humphries, the
- 5:10Speaker 1: two of you.
- 5:12Speaker 2: No, I wrote it all. She just she just takes
- 5:14Speaker 2: all the credit. Well, she's the one who was no, no, no,
- 5:16Speaker 2: she's great.
- 5:17Speaker 1: She was the one who was an erosion. Yeah, he
- 5:21Speaker 1: gave you the cold shoulder.
- 5:24Speaker 2: No, I don't know. I don't really care. It didn't
- 5:26Speaker 2: matter to me. It doesn't matter. But but no, no,
- 5:30Speaker 2: it was really a collaborative effort. It really was. I'm
- 5:32Speaker 2: just joking around. She's quite brilliant.
- 5:35Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm also joking, but I'm not joking about the
- 5:38Speaker 1: vaccine pot though. That See, that's the part that changed,
- 5:41Speaker 1: that changed everything. I was. I was chatting to a
- 5:43Speaker 1: doctor friend of mine. He's quite a normally, I guess,
- 5:47Speaker 1: in the medical space. And unfortunately, I think this is
- 5:52Speaker 1: the case with you know, most people in the medical
- 5:54Speaker 1: field that they don't really want to rock the boat
- 5:56Speaker 1: too much. And I understand that. But he's open and
- 6:01Speaker 1: I said, look, I got this great book. Because he's
- 6:02Speaker 1: also expecting a child, So I've got this great book
- 6:05Speaker 1: called Dissolving Illusions. It doesn't tell you what to do,
- 6:09Speaker 1: but it just looks at daughta.
- 6:11Speaker 2: Well, it does hint at it north towards the end.
- 6:13Speaker 2: But no, I mean when I started this, I was like,
- 6:19Speaker 2: you know, anormy. I believed in vaccines. I had no
- 6:24Speaker 2: reason not to. I don't even know where I knew that,
- 6:26Speaker 2: because I don't remember it being todded or anything, but
- 6:30Speaker 2: it was essentially, oh, I know, vaccines are great. They
- 6:33Speaker 2: got rid of all these diseases and we're not experiencing
- 6:36Speaker 2: plagues and we're not all done in the streets. So
- 6:38Speaker 2: that's what I used to think until I saw my
- 6:40Speaker 2: first chart and saying, well, that disturbed me.
- 6:44Speaker 1: It's exactly right, That's what I was saying to my doctor,
- 6:46Speaker 1: and I said, look, have a looked through the book.
- 6:49Speaker 1: I mean, this is Daughta. This is all official Daughta. Right,
- 6:52Speaker 1: there's nothing, yeah, you know, there's nothing that's been manipulated.
- 6:55Speaker 1: It just it's just nicely looking drafts. But it's all
- 6:59Speaker 1: the same source information. And he's absolutely I'll have a look.
- 7:04Speaker 2: Yeah. And there's all the quotes, which when we wrote it,
- 7:08Speaker 2: I insisted we just have all quotes instead of me paraphrasing,
- 7:11Speaker 2: paraphrasing and paraphrasing, so you could just read what people
- 7:14Speaker 2: wrote about in the eighteen hundreds and nineteen hundreds or
- 7:16Speaker 2: even earlier, and that way you can just read through
- 7:19Speaker 2: the quote and go, oh, okay, somebody said that. Yeah,
- 7:23Speaker 2: all the data is the data, and once you look
- 7:25Speaker 2: at all the data, you can't unsee it.
- 7:28Speaker 1: I just want to point out you say data and
- 7:29Speaker 1: I say data, data, but I've got the British web
- 7:33Speaker 1: of saying it because of us being a form of
- 7:35Speaker 1: form of data.
- 7:36Speaker 2: I think I got Perma Life, Star Trek, you know,
- 7:41Speaker 2: you know, so you know it was data, right, wasn't
- 7:44Speaker 2: It wasn't, mister data.
- 7:46Speaker 1: I wonder how. I wonder how that came about the
- 7:48Speaker 1: I mean the British. The British we have speaking, I
- 7:51Speaker 1: suppose is the way we speak. I wonder how you
- 7:54Speaker 1: guys ended up with such a different way of speaking.
- 7:58Speaker 2: I don't know. There's always a little changes, you know,
- 8:02Speaker 2: so I don't know. Things happen, language shifts. Yes, When
- 8:07Speaker 2: I was reading the text from the sixteen unders, it's like, oh,
- 8:12Speaker 2: that was really difficult to understand what they're saying. Then
- 8:15Speaker 2: by the seventeen hundred's a little bit better. Eighteen hundreds
- 8:18Speaker 2: mostly you could understand all of it. Everyone While I
- 8:21Speaker 2: was like term, so, like what does that mean? So
- 8:23Speaker 2: it takes a while to get used to it. The
- 8:26Speaker 2: thing is, I'm still reading that stuff, yes, of course.
- 8:29Speaker 2: But the thing I was saying to my doctor friend
- 8:31Speaker 2: is we it's a very strange phenomenon Roman, but we
- 8:38Speaker 2: will know everything about our new phone, but we'll know
- 8:44Speaker 2: nothing about what we inject into our kids. Well that's true,
- 8:50Speaker 2: but you're programmed or through society is to trust the
- 8:56Speaker 2: trust the experts. And this has been going on for
- 8:59Speaker 2: hundreds of years. So people always defer to doctors for
- 9:03Speaker 2: medical so they would, you know, trust the doctor even
- 9:07Speaker 2: if they were doing things like the hot regiment and
- 9:09Speaker 2: sticking you in a hot room and you know, bleeding
- 9:11Speaker 2: you and giving you mercury, and which we now go,
- 9:14Speaker 2: well that's ridiculous, But this is you know, you believe
- 9:17Speaker 2: that's the correct course because somebody told you to think
- 9:21Speaker 2: that way, right, So you always follow the experts, and
- 9:26Speaker 2: that's what we ended up a lot of problems because
- 9:28Speaker 2: then the experts have power, and they have prestige, and
- 9:31Speaker 2: they have profits, and then they influenced the legislators and boom,
- 9:36Speaker 2: there you go. Then you have compulsory vaccination, you have
- 9:39Speaker 2: people being bled still still into the eighteen hundreds, the
- 9:44Speaker 2: hot regimen, which was a horrifying thing to go through,
- 9:47Speaker 2: where they would stick you in a hot room and
- 9:49Speaker 2: keep you there without any water, and the idea was
- 9:52Speaker 2: to sweat the disease out, you know, will you sweating
- 9:54Speaker 2: your life out? So they had all these ideas that
- 9:57Speaker 2: they thought were you know, they thought they were legit,
- 10:00Speaker 2: and then once something gets embedded, it just stays and
- 10:04Speaker 2: you can't get rid of it. Even when doctors are
- 10:06Speaker 2: writing about these things, it's like, wait, this this thing
- 10:09Speaker 2: is bad, and this thing it takes decades for it
- 10:12Speaker 2: to go away. And some things persisted, like vaccination. Vaccination
- 10:17Speaker 2: was actually fading out by the end of the end
- 10:20Speaker 2: of eighteen huns early nineteen hundreds, it was the popular
- 10:23Speaker 2: support for it collapsed. They just you know, people were
- 10:28Speaker 2: doing less and less of it, and the only vaccine
- 10:31Speaker 2: then was for smallpox, and so it slowly just faded
- 10:35Speaker 2: away until they regenerated in the nineteen twenties and said, whoa,
- 10:39Speaker 2: we can have other vaccines, and they created a whole
- 10:42Speaker 2: slew of vaccines and they basically took control with all
- 10:48Speaker 2: the new ideas, which was unfortunate because if it hadn't
- 10:52Speaker 2: done that, we would have continued more on the health
- 10:54Speaker 2: route instead of the medical and aventure route.
- 10:57Speaker 1: Well, I mean, if you just think about it for
- 10:59Speaker 1: ten seconds, ignore all the data, just think about this.
- 11:05Speaker 1: Where did this idea come from that an injection in
- 11:07Speaker 1: the arm can give you long term health benefits.
- 11:12Speaker 2: Yeah, it started out not as an injection. It started
- 11:16Speaker 2: out as this is in the seventeen hundreds. Well, they
- 11:20Speaker 2: wanted to get somebody to have smallpox. This is the
- 11:24Speaker 2: initial original inoculation. They wanted somebody to have smallpox in
- 11:28Speaker 2: a controlled setting so they wouldn't have smallpox later and
- 11:32Speaker 2: you know, have it very severe. So they would scratch
- 11:35Speaker 2: your arm repeatedly and put this puss from somebody else's
- 11:38Speaker 2: arm who had smallpox. And sometimes it worked. You know,
- 11:42Speaker 2: you got really sick, and they treated your sickness with
- 11:45Speaker 2: various different methods, and sometimes it didn't. Sometimes you just
- 11:51Speaker 2: died from that. As you might imagine, you're putting puss
- 11:54Speaker 2: in somebody's arm, right, And that continued on and until
- 11:59Speaker 2: the end of the seventeen when this new guy came
- 12:01Speaker 2: along and said, well, we shouldn't use pusters from a
- 12:05Speaker 2: smallpox person. We're going to use it from this animal
- 12:07Speaker 2: and call it, you know, cop coppox, and so that
- 12:10Speaker 2: became a big fat and it took off, and it
- 12:12Speaker 2: was still doing the same thing. It was still scratching
- 12:15Speaker 2: onto your arm and put the puss in and hopefully
- 12:19Speaker 2: you would just have cop pox, which was supposed to
- 12:21Speaker 2: be super mild and it would protect you for life. Well,
- 12:25Speaker 2: there's no evidence of that at all. He just made
- 12:27Speaker 2: it up. This guy, Edward Jenerary just made it up.
- 12:31Speaker 2: He may have believed it, or it's maybe just a shyster.
- 12:33Speaker 2: I'm not really sure. But so people believed it. The
- 12:37Speaker 2: original tests were flawed, and so people believe those tests,
- 12:41Speaker 2: and it took off, and it became embedded into medical knowledge,
- 12:47Speaker 2: and so you couldn't get rid of it. Even after
- 12:50Speaker 2: the first few years. There were doctors that wrote about
- 12:53Speaker 2: it and said, wait, this is not working. Yeah, I
- 12:56Speaker 2: vaccinated twelve hundred patients and they're getting smallpox. It's not working.
- 13:01Speaker 2: It didn't matter. They wrote about it. But there's too
- 13:03Speaker 2: many people who had too much momentum, and so it
- 13:06Speaker 2: continued on until the end of the eighteen hunders really
- 13:09Speaker 2: early nineteen hundreds, and even now it was still credited
- 13:13Speaker 2: with wiping out smallpox. So yeah, it's it's a mythology.
- 13:17Speaker 2: Mythology gets embedded. It's hard to get rid of it.
- 13:19Speaker 1: You mentioned Jenna listened to this. I've pulled up some
- 13:22Speaker 1: someting interesting trivia here. But in seventeen ninety six he
- 13:29Speaker 1: basically coined the definition of a vaccine, and yes, what
- 13:35Speaker 1: vaccine meant. Originally, the very first definition car pox material
- 13:41Speaker 1: used to protect against smallpox.
- 13:44Speaker 2: That was it was called yeah right, yeah, it was
- 13:46Speaker 2: called carpoxing. But then they you know, cor poxing sounds,
- 13:51Speaker 2: you know, not so great, so.
- 13:53Speaker 1: They cowpoxing, cow poxing.
- 13:56Speaker 2: Hey I got a cop I got I got cow
- 13:58Speaker 2: pox Today it sounds like a game. Really, yeah, changed,
- 14:05Speaker 2: they changed it up to vodka, which is Latin for cow,
- 14:09Speaker 2: so they call it vaccination. You know. There you go, well,
- 14:11Speaker 2: listen to this. They made it sound they said, made
- 14:13Speaker 2: it sound fancy. Now doctors like doing that, you know,
- 14:15Speaker 2: they can make it sound fancy, so it's it's more acceptable.
- 14:19Speaker 1: Well, in just under one hundred years or almost a
- 14:21Speaker 1: hundred years later, shall I say, the definition changed thanks
- 14:26Speaker 1: to Louis Pasture, and yes, what the definition became. This
- 14:31Speaker 1: is not in the eighteen eighties, a vaccine meant any
- 14:36Speaker 1: biological preparation of a weakened or killed pathogen used to
- 14:41Speaker 1: stimulate immunity against a disease.
- 14:44Speaker 2: Right, that's kind of the deficient we have. Now wait
- 14:48Speaker 2: they changed it around me.
- 14:49Speaker 1: Yes, there's more, Yeah, there's more. So then that kind
- 14:52Speaker 1: of stayed through the twentieth century and then in twenty
- 14:59Speaker 1: twenty one.
- 15:00Speaker 2: Right, oh well, now now it's absurd.
- 15:03Speaker 1: Well okay, hold on, So this was pre September twenty
- 15:06Speaker 1: twenty one, so the definition officially was, according to the CDC,
- 15:11Speaker 1: a product that stimulates a person's immune system to produce
- 15:15Speaker 1: immunity to a specific disease, protecting the person from that disease.
- 15:22Speaker 1: Then after September twenty twenty one, just coincidentally, when the
- 15:27Speaker 1: COVID vaccines were not working, the CDC officially changed the
- 15:32Speaker 1: definition and this became international. The definition of a vaccine
- 15:37Speaker 1: is now right, as you're not talking right now, he
- 15:40Speaker 1: has the definition of vaccine a preparation that is used
- 15:43Speaker 1: to stimulate the body's immune response against diseases. So it's
- 15:49Speaker 1: no longer it's no longer by immunity.
- 15:52Speaker 2: Sure sure, sure, yeah, it changes, you know, to fit
- 15:54Speaker 2: whatever they need to have happened, So we got products
- 15:58Speaker 2: for this. That the other thing, well, let's use that.
- 16:00Speaker 2: Let's call it a vaccine, because they know a vaccine.
- 16:02Speaker 2: The word vaccine is magical on most people's minds. It's
- 16:05Speaker 2: going to protect you. That's the only people that's the
- 16:07Speaker 2: only thing people really know.
- 16:09Speaker 1: No, but yes, what's weird.
- 16:10Speaker 2: That's why you would line up for that and not
- 16:12Speaker 2: a gene altering therapy. Oh, I don't want to do that.
- 16:17Speaker 2: That's a vaccine. Okay, give it to me.
- 16:18Speaker 1: But yes, the funny thing or not funny, it's actually sad.
- 16:22Speaker 1: I was talking to my doctor friend and he said,
- 16:25Speaker 1: but hold on, because I was, you know, telling him
- 16:28Speaker 1: about dissolving illusions. And he said, look, we just need
- 16:29Speaker 1: to clear something. The definition of a vaccine is not
- 16:32Speaker 1: to prevent disease. Now that was the definition actually of
- 16:37Speaker 1: a vaccine. He says, no, no, it's actually just to
- 16:40Speaker 1: make it less severe, which of course is now the definition.
- 16:44Speaker 1: I mean, it's just so insane. So then my response is, yeah,
- 16:47Speaker 1: go ahead. Now I was going to say some my
- 16:49Speaker 1: response or simply, well, if you want to make a
- 16:51Speaker 1: disease less severe, how about just living a healthy life.
- 16:55Speaker 2: That's that's that's where's the money in that you're going
- 16:58Speaker 2: to say that happened with a small box vaccine. It
- 17:01Speaker 2: was Jenner said, it's perfectly safe and will last you
- 17:05Speaker 2: for life. Well, after a couple of decades, people had
- 17:09Speaker 2: to admit, well, it doesn't really protect you for life,
- 17:11Speaker 2: so we're going to have to call do something else.
- 17:13Speaker 2: It's called revaccination. So they came up with that idea
- 17:16Speaker 2: and it's like, well, it doesn't protect you for life,
- 17:18Speaker 2: but it still protects you, so we just have to
- 17:20Speaker 2: do more of it. Well, that didn't work, so then
- 17:23Speaker 2: it became well, you're less likely to get sick and
- 17:26Speaker 2: less likely to die. So they started playing with statistics,
- 17:30Speaker 2: and so it had slowly changed over time until really
- 17:33Speaker 2: the late like eighteen seventy two that was really basically
- 17:37Speaker 2: a pandemic of smallpox and people were dying like flies
- 17:40Speaker 2: despite being vaccinated. Then I was like, well, maybe we're
- 17:43Speaker 2: just not doing it right. Maybe the practitioners didn't do
- 17:47Speaker 2: this right, maybe it's not the right source. And then
- 17:50Speaker 2: so they just kept on like excusing whenever there was
- 17:53Speaker 2: a failure, because you couldn't get rid of the original
- 17:55Speaker 2: premise right because Edward Jenner was held up as a
- 17:59Speaker 2: you know, a deity of that point. And just to
- 18:02Speaker 2: be specific, they were still scratching your arm and taking
- 18:06Speaker 2: puss from somebody else's arm who got it from somebody
- 18:09Speaker 2: else's arm, who originally got it from a cow or
- 18:12Speaker 2: a horse, or even somebody who had died from small
- 18:15Speaker 2: pucks that they scratched onto a cow to make vaccine material.
- 18:20Speaker 2: So you would get it from somebody else that was
- 18:22Speaker 2: supposed to be a vaxiniffer, which I don't know if
- 18:25Speaker 2: I'm pronouncing that correctly, was the source of your vaccine material,
- 18:29Speaker 2: And so you would get it scratched onto your arm,
- 18:30Speaker 2: and they would take this sharp knife called the lancet
- 18:34Speaker 2: and cut, cut and smear it in and then off
- 18:37Speaker 2: you went and you were protected. That was kind of
- 18:41Speaker 2: the idea. Of course, sometimes you died. Sometimes you end
- 18:43Speaker 2: up with other conditions. Sometimes you would lose your arm.
- 18:47Speaker 2: You could get these big open sores. So, as you
- 18:50Speaker 2: might imagine, no one would do this today. You wouldn't say, well,
- 18:54Speaker 2: I'm just going to cut your arm with a knife
- 18:56Speaker 2: and take puss from Bob's arm and smear it onto
- 18:58Speaker 2: your arm, and off you go. No alcohol, nothing, Off
- 19:03Speaker 2: you go. You'll be fine, and a lot of people weren't.
- 19:06Speaker 2: But that was basically just kind of discarded. So now
- 19:10Speaker 2: we can just kind of laugh about it, but it
- 19:12Speaker 2: was pretty pretty ridiculous. Later they converted to a hypodermic
- 19:16Speaker 2: needle that was later eighteen hundreds, So for one hundred
- 19:19Speaker 2: years is basically a scratching puffs unto your arm. Great,
- 19:22Speaker 2: you know that's got to be healthy for you. Yeah,
- 19:25Speaker 2: once you know that, it's like, who would do this?
- 19:28Speaker 2: It's like nutty? But then again, who would bleed people
- 19:31Speaker 2: to the point of fainting? Or who would give people
- 19:33Speaker 2: mercury or arsenic or strychnine? Who would do these things?
- 19:37Speaker 2: It just sounds nutty, And those things sound really nutty.
- 19:41Speaker 2: But vaccines sound great until you explain what a vaccine was,
- 19:44Speaker 2: and it's like, oh, that is nutty. Why would anybody
- 19:46Speaker 2: do that? Right?
- 19:48Speaker 1: So, and I mean I know that it's out there.
- 19:50Speaker 1: I mean it's completely left field, bonkers even, but how
- 19:55Speaker 1: about eating better, you know, going outside in the sun.
- 20:00Speaker 1: This is crazy? Yeah, this is crazy speak Well, yeah.
- 20:04Speaker 2: Some people realized that even in the late early seventeen hundreds.
- 20:07Speaker 2: They said, well, if you take care of yourself, the
- 20:09Speaker 2: healthier people had no problems. Even doctor Sydenham, he said, well,
- 20:15Speaker 2: if you treat smallpox properly and don't put them in
- 20:19Speaker 2: this hot regimen, because that's what they were doing, they
- 20:22Speaker 2: put you in a hot box basically, then smallpox is
- 20:26Speaker 2: a mild disease. And other people noticed that. Throughout the
- 20:31Speaker 2: seventeen hundreds into the eighteen hundreds, people realized the healthy
- 20:35Speaker 2: people were doing fine. It was the miserable poor they
- 20:38Speaker 2: were having problems, or various people that were being treated. So,
- 20:43Speaker 2: you know, putting a person in a hot room and
- 20:45Speaker 2: giving a mercury, restricting water, restricting fresh air, people died
- 20:50Speaker 2: at a much higher rate than people who were just
- 20:53Speaker 2: left to nature. Some people said, if you left to
- 20:55Speaker 2: nature it was a self limiting disease and generally you
- 20:58Speaker 2: were just fine, unless, of course, you were living in
- 21:01Speaker 2: a sewer, which a lot of people were over those years.
- 21:06Speaker 2: So really, by the end of the eighteen hundreds, smallpox
- 21:09Speaker 2: became not much of an issue, became a mild disease,
- 21:13Speaker 2: and they noticed this as like, oh well smallpoxes mile,
- 21:16Speaker 2: it's like chicken pox. Now. So by the nineteen forties,
- 21:20Speaker 2: the death rate had the case fatality rate had plummeted
- 21:24Speaker 2: by like ninety eight percent. Smallpox deests became rare, even
- 21:28Speaker 2: though vaccination rates were going down, down, down. So by
- 21:32Speaker 2: nineteen forty eight, when they got rid of compulsory vaccination,
- 21:36Speaker 2: you know, most people weren't vaccinated, and still there was
- 21:38Speaker 2: no death from smallpox. So this whole idea we have
- 21:41Speaker 2: to keep on vaccinating forever, we just you know, that
- 21:44Speaker 2: goes out the window. But the mythology just didn't die.
- 21:47Speaker 2: It's embedded into medical culture and societal culture. So that's
- 21:51Speaker 2: that's why it's still around.
- 21:53Speaker 1: Well, the other interesting question about the different pox poxes,
- 21:57Speaker 1: poxes is that is that the puerial foxes, books.
- 22:00Speaker 2: Poxes, POxy, whatever you want to say, yess poxes.
- 22:05Speaker 1: It's the idea that they're all different. I've actually read
- 22:08Speaker 1: a couple articles that argue that they're actually all just
- 22:11Speaker 1: the same thing. They just very they just have varying symptoms.
- 22:15Speaker 2: Yeah, they had this idea that smallpox had morphed or
- 22:20Speaker 2: so that it was no longer the severe kind of virus.
- 22:24Speaker 2: It was morphed into the weaker kind of virus, and
- 22:26Speaker 2: they were afraid it was going to come back. So
- 22:28Speaker 2: we have to keep on vaccinating. But during the same time,
- 22:32Speaker 2: measles got weaker, scar the fever got weaker, whipping cough
- 22:37Speaker 2: got weaker. So by the nineteen fifties nineteen sixties, all
- 22:40Speaker 2: infect diseases were not that much of an issue. Mortality rates,
- 22:46Speaker 2: you know, down almost one hundred percent, So you go,
- 22:49Speaker 2: whoa why is that that they all change at the
- 22:51Speaker 2: same time. No, any microbe that's there wouldn't matter if
- 22:56Speaker 2: you're a healthy person, and we had a healthier society
- 22:58Speaker 2: where you had healthier people than we did in the
- 23:01Speaker 2: mid eighteen hundreds, which was abysmal. And basically you're living
- 23:05Speaker 2: at an open sewer with the London fog, which was
- 23:10Speaker 2: like tons of smoke because everything was being burned coal.
- 23:14Speaker 2: So you were living in a chimney in a sewer
- 23:17Speaker 2: with poor nutrition because there's no refrigeration, there's you know,
- 23:22Speaker 2: you didn't have a good life. Most people did not
- 23:25Speaker 2: have a good life. The wealthy did pretty well, but
- 23:28Speaker 2: there was a miserable poor everywhere. It was a brutal
- 23:32Speaker 2: time to be alive for most people. So all that changed.
- 23:37Speaker 2: Sewage systems came in, refrigeration. No more horses going through
- 23:42Speaker 2: the streets dumping their loads everywhere. You know, you had
- 23:45Speaker 2: the cars, you had all this technology of electricity, flush toilet,
- 23:51Speaker 2: all these things came in labor laws. No more children
- 23:54Speaker 2: working in minds as young as four in factories. That
- 23:57Speaker 2: slowly went away. I mean they were still working factors
- 24:00Speaker 2: in the nineteen twenties, but that solely went away. We
- 24:04Speaker 2: got rid of all that kind of stuff, and then
- 24:06Speaker 2: so people were healthier, they had better lives. So by
- 24:09Speaker 2: you know, you can look at pictures of children in
- 24:12Speaker 2: the nineteen forties and fifties and sixties and seventies and
- 24:14Speaker 2: they're happy, and they look healthy and everything is pretty good.
- 24:19Speaker 2: That was the big transformation. To call the world's greatest
- 24:21Speaker 2: health revolution. That's what we should have remembered. That's what
- 24:24Speaker 2: we should be taught. And then we wouldn't be doing
- 24:27Speaker 2: half the crap we're doing now, and we'd certainly be
- 24:30Speaker 2: running around trying to inject everybody for every disease. That's absurd.
- 24:35Speaker 1: So what you're telling me, actually, Rummand, is that the
- 24:38Speaker 1: people who had the biggest positive net impact on disease
- 24:46Speaker 1: was not the doctors but actually the plumbers.
- 24:49Speaker 2: Yeah, plumbers, people, engineers, inventors, electricity and all that stuff
- 24:56Speaker 2: and a lot of people were pushing for this kind
- 24:58Speaker 2: of stuff. There was societal movements to have children to
- 25:03Speaker 2: go to schools instead of working in a factory, which
- 25:05Speaker 2: is definitely an upgrade. All these types of things. There
- 25:09Speaker 2: are millions of people are involved in the sanitation engineers.
- 25:12Speaker 2: They were instrumental and you know, people even just sweeping
- 25:15Speaker 2: the streets and taking the ship off the streets and
- 25:17Speaker 2: all that kind of stuff. There's a lot of people
- 25:20Speaker 2: were involved for a long period of time trying to
- 25:23Speaker 2: make a better world, and they did a great job.
- 25:26Speaker 2: So by the time you got again to you know,
- 25:28Speaker 2: I grew up in the sixties seventies and life was
- 25:32Speaker 2: pretty good. They're not for everybody, but things were organized,
- 25:37Speaker 2: things were clean, we had electricity, clean water. Everything was great.
- 25:43Speaker 2: Everyone was relatively thin, not like now we've lost control.
- 25:47Speaker 2: We forgot we forgot our history or we remembered the
- 25:51Speaker 2: wrong history. So if we if we, if we, if
- 25:55Speaker 2: we knew that, we wouldn't we wouldn't be doing anything
- 25:58Speaker 2: like we're doing now. With the medical obsession. For everything.
- 26:03Speaker 1: You mentioned something about you don't worry about pathogens or
- 26:09Speaker 1: contagion when you're healthy. This is something that I've been
- 26:12Speaker 1: thinking about a lot. So, as you know, I've had
- 26:14Speaker 1: a number of conversations on my podcast about whether viruses exist.
- 26:19Speaker 1: I actually don't think it's all that important because if
- 26:23Speaker 1: you are a healthy person, then none of that stuff
- 26:27Speaker 1: actually really matters.
- 26:31Speaker 2: Yeah, So I looked into the whole virus and because
- 26:34Speaker 2: I have people that I know that are really smart,
- 26:36Speaker 2: they're like, there's no viruses, and they have other people
- 26:38Speaker 2: who say, yeah, there are viruses. I'm like, okay, so
- 26:40Speaker 2: I try to figure it out. I gave up because
- 26:42Speaker 2: I realized I didn't really care because most of the
- 26:46Speaker 2: things like a pathogen like a like a bacteria like
- 26:50Speaker 2: whipping cough bacteria. There's a Borderdella protesters bacteria. It can
- 26:53Speaker 2: get in your lungs and multiply, right, But the vast
- 26:56Speaker 2: majority of the issue is your general health. So proper sunshine,
- 27:01Speaker 2: eating properly, you know, as much organic, clean drinks, not stressed.
- 27:08Speaker 2: All these types of things all worked together to create it,
- 27:11Speaker 2: you know, a healthy biome. This all works together to
- 27:14Speaker 2: make you resilient to all sorts of things, not just pathogens.
- 27:18Speaker 2: But you're going to feel better, You're going to have
- 27:19Speaker 2: stronger bones, and everything's better, and so if you're in
- 27:24Speaker 2: great shape, then these things shouldn't bother you. There's always
- 27:28Speaker 2: wild cards. A couple of years ago, I don't know
- 27:32Speaker 2: why I suddenly like had no energy. It just hit me.
- 27:36Speaker 2: I was on January first, It's like, happy New Year,
- 27:39Speaker 2: you have no energy. I went to like ten percent energy.
- 27:42Speaker 2: I couldn't figure it out for two weeks, and then
- 27:44Speaker 2: I was listening to a guy about using quercitin and
- 27:48Speaker 2: zinc to get zinc into the cells, and I did that,
- 27:52Speaker 2: and then one day later it was like eighty percent better.
- 27:56Speaker 2: So I don't really know what happened there. It's just
- 27:58Speaker 2: something just wasn't worth working properly. Who knows why. And
- 28:02Speaker 2: you never really know why you're really sick. That's the thing.
- 28:06Speaker 2: We've been convinced that, oh, we do some tests and
- 28:09Speaker 2: we know why you're sick. Now you don't. You don't
- 28:10Speaker 2: really know because you don't know what's going on through
- 28:13Speaker 2: all your cells and your whole biology and your energy
- 28:16Speaker 2: field and everything else. That's the important thing trying to
- 28:20Speaker 2: stay healthy. You know, we've over medicalized everything. We've confused
- 28:26Speaker 2: healthcare with medical medical treatments. Health Most of the health
- 28:30Speaker 2: is in your hands to do the right things or
- 28:34Speaker 2: not do the right things. Then that's up to you.
- 28:36Speaker 2: But the thing is, so many people do really horrible
- 28:39Speaker 2: things and then they go, well, I have the diabetes,
- 28:43Speaker 2: I got that suddenly, or I have this or that,
- 28:45Speaker 2: and then you run to the doctor and they have
- 28:47Speaker 2: a solution for you, which is not the best solution
- 28:50Speaker 2: because you haven't fixed the underlying problem.
- 28:54Speaker 1: Yeah, but that's the point I'm making. I mean, so
- 28:57Speaker 1: I find the virus topic interesting, but that's where it ends,
- 29:03Speaker 1: because you can spend thirty minutes discussing and arguing in
- 29:07Speaker 1: fact about whether or non viruses exist. But while you're
- 29:10Speaker 1: having that argument, I've just done you a great high
- 29:14Speaker 1: intensity workout in my home gym.
- 29:17Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, yeah, I find it very interesting. And I
- 29:22Speaker 2: even read some of the original studies and world that
- 29:24Speaker 2: seems kind of cookie. How they determined there was a
- 29:26Speaker 2: virus there didn't make any sense to me. But again,
- 29:30Speaker 2: I don't really care. It doesn't matter to me. I
- 29:34Speaker 2: just did an article on my sub stack on the
- 29:37Speaker 2: nineteen eighteen flu and they couldn't transmit the flute from
- 29:41Speaker 2: sick to healthy.
- 29:42Speaker 1: No, I've read that also, that's the that was what
- 29:45Speaker 1: was What do they call that that experiment. I've not forgotten,
- 29:50Speaker 1: but it was that he was funded I believe by
- 29:52Speaker 1: the US government.
- 29:54Speaker 2: Yeah, it was ross And yes, they went into the experiment.
- 29:59Speaker 2: There was four experiments. I heard there was five, and
- 30:02Speaker 2: never found the fifth one that well, we know how
- 30:05Speaker 2: this works, We're just going to like kind of do
- 30:07Speaker 2: some experiments. So they got healthy people and they took this.
- 30:11Speaker 2: Really these people were dying, they were turning blue, they
- 30:14Speaker 2: were dying within hours or days. I mean it was
- 30:16Speaker 2: really severe. And so they would take secretions out of
- 30:19Speaker 2: them and squirt them into the guy's eyes, down their throat,
- 30:22Speaker 2: up their nose.
- 30:23Speaker 1: Yeah, there was soldiers I think.
- 30:25Speaker 2: Mostly, Yeah, right, And so they convinced these guys that
- 30:29Speaker 2: it was their patriotic duty to like be exposed to this.
- 30:32Speaker 2: I would be like, oh, you know, I don't want
- 30:33Speaker 2: to do that. These guys are all dying around me.
- 30:35Speaker 2: I don't want to do that. But they did. And
- 30:38Speaker 2: they even did things like, you know, shake hands with
- 30:41Speaker 2: the person, be up close for repeated times, and cough
- 30:45Speaker 2: in the person's face and everything else. They couldn't make
- 30:48Speaker 2: anybody sick. So what does that mean. It means that
- 30:54Speaker 2: they couldn't transmit an illness. What what does that mean? Does
- 30:57Speaker 2: it mean there's no virus maybe, or it doesn't mean
- 31:02Speaker 2: if you're healthy, it's not a problem. You know, whatever
- 31:06Speaker 2: these people were exposed to or whatever happened to them
- 31:09Speaker 2: to make them deathly ill, didn't transmit to another person
- 31:14Speaker 2: and make them deathly ill. That was the end result.
- 31:17Speaker 2: Doesn't prove there's a virus or no virus. Really. I mean,
- 31:20Speaker 2: maybe there was a virus and they transmitted something and
- 31:24Speaker 2: the person's like it bounced off of them. I don't know.
- 31:26Speaker 2: But the thing is it showed that if you're a
- 31:29Speaker 2: healthy person, it's not a problem, so you don't have
- 31:33Speaker 2: to worry about all this stuff.
- 31:34Speaker 1: And in fact, my doctor friend said to me that
- 31:38Speaker 1: he has observed that children who actually are healthier get
- 31:44Speaker 1: a far less severe form of chicken pox.
- 31:49Speaker 2: Yeah. I mean, this is what we've seen throughout history.
- 31:52Speaker 2: So that's why smallpox became as mild as chicken pox.
- 31:55Speaker 2: So you can see pictures in their early nineteen twenties
- 31:59Speaker 2: medical literature of a person with smallpox, and they have
- 32:03Speaker 2: just a few dots. It's like, oh, it's not because
- 32:06Speaker 2: they What you usually see is the person's just like
- 32:09Speaker 2: covered with pustules. Right, that's smallpox, right, But that's not
- 32:13Speaker 2: what it really was all the time. That was more
- 32:15Speaker 2: like early you know, eighteen hundreds, during the eighteen hundreds,
- 32:18Speaker 2: and then by the nineteen hundreds you didn't see that anymore.
- 32:22Speaker 2: It was just so mild. It was just like a
- 32:24Speaker 2: no big deal, just kind of faded away. So, you know,
- 32:29Speaker 2: things change depends depending on you know, basically your host
- 32:34Speaker 2: host defense system or your host health or whatever you
- 32:36Speaker 2: want to call it. So if you're healthy and you're
- 32:40Speaker 2: doing all these things, great, but you know you have
- 32:44Speaker 2: to do all the things. So let's say you eat
- 32:46Speaker 2: healthy and you drink and you exercise, but you don't
- 32:48Speaker 2: get any sunshines and then your vitamin D levels are
- 32:50Speaker 2: going to be poor. You really have to do all
- 32:53Speaker 2: these different things to keep a real healthy system.
- 32:58Speaker 1: You've been working on another book.
- 33:03Speaker 2: I just published. So I was doing an interview I
- 33:06Speaker 2: don't remember with who, and we were talking about Dissolving Illusions,
- 33:10Speaker 2: and it came up that this is a real thick
- 33:12Speaker 2: book and it's a it's it's difficult for people to assimilate, right,
- 33:17Speaker 2: and which I already knew because people would tell me, oh, well,
- 33:20Speaker 2: I started reading. I couldn't finish it. It's too much,
- 33:23Speaker 2: it's too much, it's overwhelming, I said, And I had
- 33:26Speaker 2: this idea for this fiction book, historical fiction book, and
- 33:30Speaker 2: that really solidified it. I was like, yeah, I really
- 33:32Speaker 2: got to write this. I got to write something that,
- 33:35Speaker 2: you know, for you know, normies who can you know,
- 33:37Speaker 2: get you know, read something that's more personal and more alive,
- 33:41Speaker 2: like real, not just a bunch of facts. Right. So
- 33:46Speaker 2: I finally said, well, I'm going to go do that.
- 33:47Speaker 2: So this is last January. I sat down and I
- 33:51Speaker 2: started writing, and I had no idea what I was
- 33:54Speaker 2: going to do, just no clue whatsoever. I knew how
- 33:58Speaker 2: I wanted to end. I want to end with the
- 34:01Speaker 2: world's greatest health revolution, which you know, the pushback against
- 34:04Speaker 2: vaccination in Leicester, England, So I knew I kind of
- 34:07Speaker 2: wanted that was the ending point somewhere. And then I
- 34:11Speaker 2: was like, what am I going. I had all these
- 34:12Speaker 2: other facts that didn't make into dissolving illusions about asylums
- 34:17Speaker 2: and all sorts of other stuff. So I was like,
- 34:19Speaker 2: I'm going to try to fit all these things into
- 34:22Speaker 2: a story. And that's what I did. I just sat
- 34:24Speaker 2: down and just started writing. Never wrote a fiction book before.
- 34:29Speaker 2: I was like, but I'm going to make it historically accurate.
- 34:32Speaker 2: I wanted to be historically accurate, so I did a
- 34:34Speaker 2: lot of research. So I just started writing. I was like, okay,
- 34:38Speaker 2: my fingers just started doing things. So I started with
- 34:42Speaker 2: the first chapter and from there I didn't have a plan.
- 34:47Speaker 2: I just kind of went along with the flow, and
- 34:50Speaker 2: I would get inspired often at two or three in
- 34:53Speaker 2: the morning. But I called my muses, you know. They
- 34:56Speaker 2: were just like I would get an idea because I
- 34:59Speaker 2: was like, well, I finished a chapter, Well should I
- 35:01Speaker 2: do next? I don't know. And then I would get
- 35:03Speaker 2: these ideas in the middle of the night and I
- 35:06Speaker 2: was like, okay, I'll do that next. And so that's
- 35:08Speaker 2: how the whole book was written. I just kept on,
- 35:11Speaker 2: you know, progressing the story. The characters to me became
- 35:14Speaker 2: real alive, and I tried to be each one of
- 35:17Speaker 2: the characters as I'm writing, because they have their own
- 35:20Speaker 2: different perspectives. There's like, really, now, too many bad guys,
- 35:24Speaker 2: and it's just everybody had a different perspective. It's okay,
- 35:26Speaker 2: don't cry, it's not that sad. And it was a
- 35:32Speaker 2: lot of fun. I had so much fun. It was great.
- 35:35Speaker 2: I'd finish a chapter, I'd give it to my wife.
- 35:37Speaker 2: It's like, read this, read this, because it takes me
- 35:39Speaker 2: like four days or maybe longer to write a chapter.
- 35:43Speaker 2: And I was like, I'm so excited, and it's like
- 35:45Speaker 2: she would read it's like, oh wow, I can't believe
- 35:47Speaker 2: that happened to Victoria or another character. And it was.
- 35:51Speaker 2: It was a lot of fun. It took, you know,
- 35:54Speaker 2: I just took random twists and turns. And there was
- 35:57Speaker 2: a trial in the middle of the book. Was like,
- 35:58Speaker 2: I don't want to write a trial, yeah, and then
- 36:02Speaker 2: but then I said, well I probably should, and ended
- 36:04Speaker 2: up being two chapters of this trial that goes on.
- 36:07Speaker 2: And I did a lot of research to figure out,
- 36:09Speaker 2: you know, how how a court would have been set up,
- 36:12Speaker 2: and the jury system and all that kind of things,
- 36:15Speaker 2: and how how people presented cases and all that. So,
- 36:19Speaker 2: you know, I try to be really historically accurate, and
- 36:22Speaker 2: I throw in nuggets of different history, like the London
- 36:25Speaker 2: Fog and the poor section of London, which was the
- 36:28Speaker 2: East end of London. It was miserably poor. The West
- 36:30Speaker 2: End was where the rich people lived, which was very interesting.
- 36:34Speaker 2: It was only a couple of miles away that you know,
- 36:36Speaker 2: had people in squalor and the other half was living
- 36:40Speaker 2: the life of Hollywood. They were the one you always
- 36:43Speaker 2: see in the Hollywood movies. So it was a lot
- 36:45Speaker 2: of fun. I really had a great time. I'm working
- 36:48Speaker 2: on the second one.
- 36:50Speaker 1: What's it cool?
- 36:51Speaker 2: Yeah, Tender Mercy Zone. Can you see that? I think again?
- 36:58Speaker 1: Yeah, I can't see it cover.
- 37:01Speaker 2: Yeah. I had my friend design the cover. I started
- 37:05Speaker 2: doing something. I was like, nah, that sucks. I'll let
- 37:07Speaker 2: somebody who knows what they're doing to it. So I
- 37:11Speaker 2: think it came out really good. So I'm working on
- 37:13Speaker 2: the next one, which is takes place ten years later
- 37:17Speaker 2: with certain characters that are still around. Some characters don't
- 37:20Speaker 2: make it.
- 37:21Speaker 1: But how long did it take to it?
- 37:25Speaker 2: It took about a year. So yeah, yeah, yeah, it
- 37:30Speaker 2: took a year. It was a lot of fun. The
- 37:34Speaker 2: worst part was formatting. But you know, I got in
- 37:38Speaker 2: hardcover and paperback and and kindle.
- 37:41Speaker 1: And you didn't even ask me to illustrate it.
- 37:45Speaker 2: I have an illustration. It's so cool, man, See, I said,
- 37:49Speaker 2: up in the corner there, I had a little ink. Well, no,
- 37:53Speaker 2: we could, we could illustrate it. We can make it
- 37:55Speaker 2: into a graphic novel. But you say you don't do
- 37:57Speaker 2: graphic novels, do you?
- 37:58Speaker 1: No, graphic novel is not my thing. That's like asking
- 38:01Speaker 1: a I don't know a punk guitarist to play jazz.
- 38:07Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I wanted to make it into a
- 38:11Speaker 2: graphic novel, but it didn't find anybody to do it,
- 38:14Speaker 2: So maybe it will be someday. I also have in
- 38:16Speaker 2: discussions to make it into a movie, but that's I
- 38:19Speaker 2: don't know if that's going to happen.
- 38:20Speaker 1: But if you do, If you do have illustrations, it
- 38:22Speaker 1: doesn't have to be that little the little one that
- 38:25Speaker 1: you showed me, or a graphic novel. It can also
- 38:28Speaker 1: be that the roll.
- 38:29Speaker 2: Doll style where you have Do you need a job?
- 38:32Speaker 2: Do you want to do something I do desperately? Well,
- 38:36Speaker 2: we can talk about it.
- 38:37Speaker 1: I think I think I'm running to the end of
- 38:39Speaker 1: my my podcasting thing.
- 38:42Speaker 2: Really really okay, all right, I run out.
- 38:44Speaker 1: Of I've run out of topics. Roman.
- 38:47Speaker 2: There's always something new to learn. I'm sure you can
- 38:50Speaker 2: find something. But I want to get the book. Is
- 38:54Speaker 2: I want to get a copy received?
- 38:56Speaker 1: I want to get a copy.
- 38:57Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, you're better off just order it. So if
- 39:00Speaker 2: I try to nail it.
- 39:01Speaker 1: No, it's too expensive.
- 39:03Speaker 2: It's too expensive. It's on Amazon as well as this
- 39:08Speaker 2: other other system. I use book fault and then you
- 39:12Speaker 2: just you just get a ship to you. It's much cheaper,
- 39:16Speaker 2: and Amazon prints it locally. So if I try to
- 39:19Speaker 2: ship it, it's.
- 39:19Speaker 1: Like, you know, no, it's too expensive undred bucks to
- 39:21Speaker 1: ship that. But I do need to find a way
- 39:25Speaker 1: to get you to personally sign it in the future.
- 39:28Speaker 2: Oh that's going to be difficult. No, not really really,
- 39:32Speaker 2: you can do it, you know, on screen and just
- 39:34Speaker 2: sign it that one exactly.
- 39:35Speaker 1: There we go.
- 39:36Speaker 2: That's cheating.
- 39:38Speaker 1: You know. What I'd be interested in trying is if
- 39:40Speaker 1: you do write I wonder, I wonder if this can work.
- 39:45Speaker 1: If you write something, you scan it or you take
- 39:48Speaker 1: a picture of it, and then I have it aied.
- 39:51Speaker 1: I wonder if it's possible to do something like that.
- 39:52Speaker 1: And I yeah, no, because well I can.
- 39:57Speaker 2: I can. I've done this before. You just write it
- 39:59Speaker 2: and take a picture of it. It's pretty close, I
- 40:01Speaker 2: mean high resolution picture.
- 40:03Speaker 1: It's just like no, But I was trying to think
- 40:05Speaker 1: of how you put it into the book. You can't.
- 40:07Speaker 1: They just realize that you can't. You need to. It
- 40:09Speaker 1: has to be printed on the page. So I'm back
- 40:11Speaker 1: to square one.
- 40:13Speaker 2: No, I mean I could have you know, you could print.
- 40:17Speaker 2: You could print whatever you scanned about it. You know
- 40:19Speaker 2: that's not the same thing.
- 40:20Speaker 1: Who cares exactly? You can write something? Yeah, I mean
- 40:24Speaker 1: ultimately you can write something by hand. And then I
- 40:26Speaker 1: just printed and then I'll just use a little little
- 40:29Speaker 1: paper clip and attach it to the.
- 40:33Speaker 2: I'll send you an envelope. You can just staple it in.
- 40:36Speaker 1: With some with some in thracks.
- 40:39Speaker 2: Well, okay, I got some here.
- 40:42Speaker 1: You know I like to live on the edge.
- 40:45Speaker 2: I'm sure you do. Yeah. Again, it was a lot
- 40:49Speaker 2: of fun, and I think anybody can do it. You see,
- 40:52Speaker 2: a lot of the things I've done I would never
- 40:54Speaker 2: have thought I would do. I grew up, as you know,
- 40:58Speaker 2: kind of a nerve, prety, nerdy, quiet kid, and they
- 41:03Speaker 2: ended up going to computers and I got pretty good
- 41:05Speaker 2: at that. I was quite quite expert at that, programming
- 41:08Speaker 2: and doing engineering stuff. I never thought I was going
- 41:10Speaker 2: to write anything. But then when I had to write
- 41:15Speaker 2: dissolving illusions, after I had enough information, It's like I
- 41:19Speaker 2: got to do this, even though I didn't want to
- 41:21Speaker 2: do it. I really didn't want to do it. I
- 41:23Speaker 2: was like, why am I spending all my time doing this?
- 41:25Speaker 2: But I did it, and I realized later on it's like, well,
- 41:29Speaker 2: you can do any of these things if you really
- 41:31Speaker 2: want to do them, and you know, writing tender mercies.
- 41:35Speaker 2: I was like, Okay, I know I can do this.
- 41:37Speaker 2: Just sit down and do it, even if you don't
- 41:39Speaker 2: know what you're doing, just do it. And I did it.
- 41:42Speaker 2: I think anybody can do these things, and it's I
- 41:44Speaker 2: think it's I try to inspire people to follow whatever
- 41:47Speaker 2: their passion is and just do it.
- 41:52Speaker 1: Well, yes, but it goes more than that, because the
- 41:59Speaker 1: result all of your work leads to people asking questions
- 42:03Speaker 1: sort of esoteric kind of question maybe not even esoteric
- 42:10Speaker 1: existential questions like vaccines.
- 42:14Speaker 2: Yeah, And your point is what I'm saying in generally,
- 42:18Speaker 2: if you're passionate about anything, yes, and you're like, well
- 42:22Speaker 2: I've never done that, I can't do it. You can
- 42:25Speaker 2: do it. Just have to put the time and effort
- 42:28Speaker 2: in there, right.
- 42:28Speaker 1: Yeah. But I'm what I was saying is that there's
- 42:30Speaker 1: also a net benefit of people enjoying your passion is
- 42:35Speaker 1: because it comes Because it comes down to questioning what
- 42:37Speaker 1: you're putting into your child.
- 42:40Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, yeah. The amount of time I put into
- 42:42Speaker 2: that dissolving illusions, reading and going to libraries. I have
- 42:47Speaker 2: binders about this why in my closet or there's like
- 42:52Speaker 2: filled with you know, old charts and old documents and statistics,
- 42:56Speaker 2: and it's like I became kind of nutty about it,
- 43:01Speaker 2: but I found it fascinating, so I just kept on
- 43:03Speaker 2: doing it. I've got a until until I burned out.
- 43:08Speaker 1: I've got a great idea for your next Dissolving illusions project,
- 43:14Speaker 1: go into antibiotics.
- 43:18Speaker 2: Uh yeah, I guess. Actually we're talking about I don't
- 43:22Speaker 2: know if we're going to do it or not, because
- 43:23Speaker 2: it takes a long time to do these things. But
- 43:25Speaker 2: we're going to do like a Dissolving Illusions for dummies
- 43:27Speaker 2: kind of thing, you know, or as my wife's Dissolving
- 43:32Speaker 2: Illusions simplified, something like that, where you take all this
- 43:34Speaker 2: stuff and just makes it easier to understand billion quotes
- 43:38Speaker 2: and charts and everything else. So that's that's on the
- 43:41Speaker 2: possible list. I thought that might be useful, but then again,
- 43:44Speaker 2: i'd rather write historical fiction at the moment, So I'm
- 43:48Speaker 2: working on the second book of Tender Mercies, Off we Go.
- 43:52Speaker 2: It's not I'm on chapter. It's historical fiction because the
- 43:56Speaker 2: characters are fictional, although they are composite of what I
- 43:59Speaker 2: believe characters were like. So Victoria was, you know, she
- 44:04Speaker 2: started out as a twenty something person in the wealthy aras,
- 44:09Speaker 2: but she felt like she was being controlled and repressed
- 44:12Speaker 2: by societal norms. She had to behave a certain way,
- 44:16Speaker 2: you know, decorum had to be you know, all the time,
- 44:19Speaker 2: and she was miserable with that. And then there's Simon,
- 44:23Speaker 2: her husband, who was you know, very prim and proper
- 44:25Speaker 2: and was very ambitious and you know, ruled the roost
- 44:29Speaker 2: that kind of thing. So, you know, I tried to
- 44:31Speaker 2: create characters that made sense to me based on all
- 44:34Speaker 2: my reading, and so you just, I don't know what
- 44:38Speaker 2: was the point of my story. I don't know. I
- 44:40Speaker 2: just enjoyed doing it. And so now the characters that
- 44:44Speaker 2: are still around, they have their own new trajectories and
- 44:48Speaker 2: I'm mixing in things like Charles Crichton, who was a
- 44:52Speaker 2: big He was pro vaccine when he started until he
- 44:56Speaker 2: did his research and wrote an article for the Encyclopedia
- 45:03Speaker 2: Britannica in eighteen eighty eight, which the mainstream doctors did
- 45:08Speaker 2: not like because it was filled with charts, not charts,
- 45:11Speaker 2: but tables. They didn't really have charts and other information
- 45:15Speaker 2: in there, you know, kind of ticked everybody off. And
- 45:18Speaker 2: then he ended up writing two books, one on Jenner
- 45:22Speaker 2: A Strange, Strange Episode in history or something I forgot
- 45:27Speaker 2: it was. Anyway, it was very critical of the whole
- 45:30Speaker 2: thing and basically called it a grotesque superstition. And so
- 45:36Speaker 2: I have him in the next book, And so I
- 45:39Speaker 2: try to take some of the speeches and things like that,
- 45:42Speaker 2: or actual speeches or things they wrote that I turned into,
- 45:48Speaker 2: you know, some of the things they talk about even
- 45:51Speaker 2: in the first book. So the protests in Lester, there
- 45:54Speaker 2: was a lot of things written down of people making
- 45:58Speaker 2: speeches there. So I took that and kind of just
- 46:01Speaker 2: dropped it into the book. So they're actually real speeches.
- 46:03Speaker 2: By the way, at the end of the book, the
- 46:05Speaker 2: last ten percent, I have quotes and references for what
- 46:10Speaker 2: went into particular chapters, so you can go and kind
- 46:13Speaker 2: of dig deeper and say, oh, yeah, well, I guess
- 46:16Speaker 2: that was real because chapter fifty has this quote from
- 46:20Speaker 2: there from this reference, so you can look into these
- 46:23Speaker 2: things and say, yeah, the book is actually pretty historically accurate,
- 46:28Speaker 2: which is what I was trying to aim for. But
- 46:30Speaker 2: you can follow up and do your own reading. It's
- 46:32Speaker 2: kind of fun.
- 46:34Speaker 1: You've got so much vaccine knowledge. Do you ever get
- 46:37Speaker 1: frustrated in conversations though?
- 46:40Speaker 2: I don't know really at this point. People want to
- 46:45Speaker 2: believe what they want to believe, and that can be
- 46:48Speaker 2: about anything, right, politics, or religion or whatever. And you know,
- 46:53Speaker 2: if that's what you want to believe, that's your background,
- 46:58Speaker 2: how you were raised, experiences you went through, what things
- 47:02Speaker 2: you read and absorbed and created your image of the universe. Right,
- 47:08Speaker 2: Who am I to come over along and say you're
- 47:10Speaker 2: you're an idiot. I don't want to do that.
- 47:12Speaker 1: Yeah, but provide information, but when it give it for you,
- 47:14Speaker 1: but when it gets closer to home than it does matter.
- 47:18Speaker 2: Yeah. You know, I've tried to talk to lots of
- 47:21Speaker 2: people I know, my family members, and they just are
- 47:23Speaker 2: aren't interested. And I don't get mad about it. I
- 47:26Speaker 2: just you don't want to don't find it interesting or
- 47:30Speaker 2: important or convincing. Then Okay, that's your life. It's your
- 47:36Speaker 2: journey and your life. It's not my call to make
- 47:40Speaker 2: you do anything. No, by just present information.
- 47:43Speaker 1: Sure, but when it gets close to home, like your
- 47:45Speaker 1: child then suddenly does it can become quite heated with
- 47:48Speaker 1: your Yeah.
- 47:49Speaker 2: Sure if I had a young baby now, because I
- 47:53Speaker 2: did this when my kids were really young and I
- 47:55Speaker 2: didn't know enough and they got vaccinated anyway behind my back, yeah,
- 48:01Speaker 2: I would be fighting for my right to do what
- 48:05Speaker 2: I want with my children. Right. That's different. But as
- 48:08Speaker 2: an adult, you know, you're you're free to make your
- 48:11Speaker 2: own choices. That's what you know. That's you know, I'm
- 48:13Speaker 2: a real freedom maximalist. Hey, you want to go out
- 48:16Speaker 2: to the bars and drink and do cocaine and and
- 48:21Speaker 2: you know whatever, that's your business. That's what you want
- 48:24Speaker 2: to do. You're not harming anybody else. Okay, yeah, it's
- 48:28Speaker 2: self destructive, but you know that's it's your life. You
- 48:31Speaker 2: can do what you want. I would advise against certain things,
- 48:33Speaker 2: but go ahead. You know who am I to say
- 48:35Speaker 2: what you should do? Right? Sometimes people have to bottom
- 48:39Speaker 2: out to change their lives too. I bottomed out a
- 48:42Speaker 2: few times. I've had difficulties and they may help me grow.
- 48:47Speaker 2: I guess I'm going off the topic a little bit,
- 48:49Speaker 2: but you know, as far as vaccines goes. You know,
- 48:52Speaker 2: if somebody says, well I looked at your book, it's
- 48:55Speaker 2: a bunch of crap and you didn't do this and
- 48:57Speaker 2: do that. Okay, Well just information. You know, you can
- 49:00Speaker 2: use it as you wish, and a lot of people
- 49:03Speaker 2: take it in the right way, and some people just
- 49:05Speaker 2: want to argue about everything. So I just don't argue.
- 49:07Speaker 2: It's like, okay, I don't worry about it. Initially, initially
- 49:14Speaker 2: that wasn't true. I would get you know, as far
- 49:17Speaker 2: as like health things, because I would do health consults,
- 49:19Speaker 2: and I would get frustrated, like why won't you do this,
- 49:23Speaker 2: why you know whatever it might be, and why wouldn't
- 49:26Speaker 2: you read that? Then I realized, you know, that's not
- 49:30Speaker 2: my business to convince people to do things. So you
- 49:32Speaker 2: can do them or not do them. That's your choice.
- 49:35Speaker 1: Well, my wife didn't read Dissolving Illusions.
- 49:38Speaker 2: She listened to Oh, okay, I thought maybe you just
- 49:42Speaker 2: like laid down the law.
- 49:44Speaker 1: No, no, no, she actually listened to the audiobook. Who
- 49:46Speaker 1: narrates it?
- 49:47Speaker 2: By the way, so the original one is narrated by
- 49:52Speaker 2: you forgot his name because a long time ago, by
- 49:54Speaker 2: a guy we found I forgot how that happened. I
- 49:59Speaker 2: can't remember his name anyway, And then I did the
- 50:03Speaker 2: second one.
- 50:03Speaker 1: Okay, so maybe she listened to you. I don't know
- 50:06Speaker 1: because that was only two years ago.
- 50:07Speaker 2: Put it. Yeah, but I cheated, so I used AI
- 50:11Speaker 2: with my voice trained. And then really, because so what
- 50:16Speaker 2: happens when you're trying to do this stuff? So I
- 50:19Speaker 2: started doing it, and I would get a dry mouth,
- 50:22Speaker 2: I would lose my cadence, I would mispronounce words, I'd
- 50:26Speaker 2: get food and then but now that's so much the background.
- 50:31Speaker 2: It was just I would just screw up too many times.
- 50:34Speaker 2: So I said, well, let me try this, and it
- 50:36Speaker 2: basically sounds like me and I I had. I had
- 50:39Speaker 2: to listen to every paragraph and everything is very long
- 50:42Speaker 2: process anyway, but I just found myself not able to
- 50:47Speaker 2: consistently create, you know, chapters. Just too many glitches, too
- 50:53Speaker 2: many things I had to redo. I said, I screw that,
- 50:57Speaker 2: I'm not going to do it. And at that time,
- 50:59Speaker 2: I also had a a bad computer. I was having
- 51:01Speaker 2: problems with it. It's like, I can't get this done.
- 51:06Speaker 2: And I tried to find like a human being to
- 51:08Speaker 2: do it. I almost had the guy's name, so I
- 51:12Speaker 2: tried to contact the guy beforehand. He never responded. I
- 51:14Speaker 2: tried to get a bunch of people to do it.
- 51:16Speaker 2: Nobody wanted to do it, so I said, screw it,
- 51:19Speaker 2: I'll just do it this way, and that worked out
- 51:22Speaker 2: pretty well. I think it sounds pretty good, but it
- 51:26Speaker 2: wasn't my first choice. But that's the way it worked
- 51:28Speaker 2: out well.
- 51:29Speaker 1: If my wife did listen to your AI voice, it worked.
- 51:34Speaker 2: Great. I'm sure it was quite good.
- 51:39Speaker 1: I can't imagine anything more boring than reading a thick
- 51:43Speaker 1: book like that out loud.
- 51:46Speaker 2: Well there's the other thing too, I don't want to
- 51:48Speaker 2: I've read this too many times. I don't read this
- 51:49Speaker 2: darn thing again. It's like I'm done with it. And
- 51:54Speaker 2: when we first published in twenty thirteen, I was done
- 51:57Speaker 2: with vaccines. I was never going to touch the topic again.
- 52:00Speaker 2: And I was like burned out. That's twenty years of
- 52:03Speaker 2: blah blah blah. All right, that's enough. I had enough
- 52:06Speaker 2: of this. Everybody read the book and leave me alone.
- 52:08Speaker 2: I didn't want to have anything to do with it,
- 52:10Speaker 2: and it wasn't really until COVID that was like, good grief.
- 52:14Speaker 2: I felt like I had to go back and do
- 52:15Speaker 2: it again, upgrade the book and so I did. I
- 52:19Speaker 2: didn't want to do it again, but here I am
- 52:23Speaker 2: still doing it.
- 52:24Speaker 1: Also. The other challenge is, you know, if you come
- 52:29Speaker 1: back a couple of days later to read the next chapter,
- 52:32Speaker 1: your voice might sound different. It might be too yeah,
- 52:36Speaker 1: might be two early in the morning and you still
- 52:37Speaker 1: got that wake up voice.
- 52:39Speaker 2: Yeah. I've talked to people who actually do this. It's
- 52:42Speaker 2: really difficult. It's not that easy. You know. You have
- 52:46Speaker 2: to really have a nice sound per room. You have
- 52:48Speaker 2: to be in the space, you have to like do
- 52:50Speaker 2: your homework, make sure you know how you're going to
- 52:51Speaker 2: pronounce words, and you have to be with the I tried,
- 52:56Speaker 2: and I gave up.
- 52:58Speaker 1: And then someone knocks on the door or your phone rings.
- 53:03Speaker 2: Well that I made sure my phone's gone and all
- 53:05Speaker 2: that stuff. And you know, I'm my little isolated area here,
- 53:08Speaker 2: so it's not a big deal. But I just, yeah,
- 53:11Speaker 2: it didn't work out for me. Couldn't do it. So
- 53:13Speaker 2: I opted for the cheating way and he used AI,
- 53:16Speaker 2: which actually worked pretty well. They trained my voice in
- 53:19Speaker 2: one shot. I was like, oh, that sounds like me,
- 53:22Speaker 2: Like crap, it's kind of creepy.
- 53:23Speaker 1: Actually, I haven't listened to the audiobook of Dissolving illusions.
- 53:27Speaker 1: But how do you deal with all the graphs and
- 53:29Speaker 1: the dot that you know, all the doctors those are those.
- 53:31Speaker 2: Are those are available on Dissolving illusions dot com.
- 53:35Speaker 1: Okay, so you just you just say go and check
- 53:37Speaker 1: out on the website.
- 53:38Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah yeah so and uh yeah.
- 53:42Speaker 2: So it's that was a long process. I don't know
- 53:45Speaker 2: how many months I spent doing that, like four or
- 53:47Speaker 2: five months. It's like, yes, I don't want to do
- 53:50Speaker 2: that again. There's certain things I don't want to do again.
- 53:53Speaker 1: Well this did this roman so when when our boy gone.
- 53:58Speaker 2: But you just got to get the job done. So
- 54:00Speaker 2: just I become obsessive. I got to get it done,
- 54:03Speaker 2: even if I hate it. I didn't like doing that
- 54:06Speaker 2: part at all. It was really really tedious, but I
- 54:09Speaker 2: got it done.
- 54:10Speaker 1: When our little guy turned one, we had a little
- 54:13Speaker 1: birthday party for him, and of course a whole bunch
- 54:14Speaker 1: of other babies came around.
- 54:17Speaker 2: And yes, the thing so he was a main vector
- 54:20Speaker 2: of disease. Is that right?
- 54:21Speaker 1: Listen to this right? So of course he's not vaccinated,
- 54:24Speaker 1: he's never been to a doctor, never had an antibiotic,
- 54:29Speaker 1: doesn't have a pedutrition. You know, three babies could not
- 54:34Speaker 1: come because all of them were either very sick or
- 54:38Speaker 1: I think two of them had to go to hospital.
- 54:41Speaker 1: All three of them are vaccinated.
- 54:45Speaker 2: Yeah, what's your point. I don't understand your point.
- 54:50Speaker 1: You don't understand my point.
- 54:51Speaker 2: No, just kidding. Yeah, I haven't been to a doctor
- 54:55Speaker 2: in fourteen years something thirteen, fourteen years. I stopped going
- 55:01Speaker 2: because I realized most you know, if I got in
- 55:04Speaker 2: a car accident, great, you know, they fix you up
- 55:08Speaker 2: pretty good. They're really good at that. But anything else,
- 55:11Speaker 2: it's like, oh, we're going to do tests and we're
- 55:13Speaker 2: going to give you shots, and the tests are going
- 55:15Speaker 2: to show you have a problem with this or that,
- 55:17Speaker 2: and we're going to give you these pills. And that
- 55:19Speaker 2: doesn't work. For the most part, it doesn't work for me.
- 55:22Speaker 2: So I just stop going. And I have the attitude
- 55:25Speaker 2: as I'm going to live a healthy lifestyle as long
- 55:28Speaker 2: as I can until something goes wrong, or maybe nothing
- 55:31Speaker 2: will go wrong. Maybe I'll live to be two hundred.
- 55:33Speaker 2: That's my goal, live to be two hundred and healthy
- 55:36Speaker 2: and no problems. So far, it's worked out pretty well.
- 55:40Speaker 2: It's because again, we've medicalized everything. Everything has to be
- 55:45Speaker 2: passed through a doctor. Every darn little thing. It's like,
- 55:49Speaker 2: and I know people, Oh I got an injury, a
- 55:52Speaker 2: little cut or something, I go to the doctor. I'm sniffling.
- 55:54Speaker 2: I go to the doctor. And it's like, why you
- 55:57Speaker 2: don't need to do that. But people have been convinced
- 56:00Speaker 2: that's what they do, and I don't do that.
- 56:01Speaker 1: We went.
- 56:02Speaker 2: It works for me.
- 56:03Speaker 1: Yeah, we went camping and I accidentally stabbed myself in
- 56:08Speaker 1: my hand with my knife.
- 56:10Speaker 2: I'm sure it was an accident. You're reaching out for help,
- 56:14Speaker 2: crying out, So.
- 56:15Speaker 1: It's actually this knfe that I got, right, Yeah, I
- 56:17Speaker 1: got a flick knife and that's a knife, and I
- 56:22Speaker 1: was can't remember I was doing. I was cutting something
- 56:24Speaker 1: and my hand slipped and I stabbed myself into man
- 56:27Speaker 1: and it was a pretty bad cut and we had
- 56:31Speaker 1: to immediately go somewhere to I needed stitches. My wife
- 56:37Speaker 1: is medical, so she so she knew exactly what to
- 56:40Speaker 1: do in that moment. We had bandages, we had bandages
- 56:43Speaker 1: and all that kind of stuff. But I went to
- 56:46Speaker 1: the door. No, I didn't go to the doctor. Immediately,
- 56:47Speaker 1: stayed overnight, but it with my hand wrapped up and bandages.
- 56:50Speaker 1: Next morning, we went and found a doctor and in
- 56:53Speaker 1: the nearby town. He asked me what happened. Told him
- 56:57Speaker 1: he said, can I give you a tetanus shot? I
- 56:58Speaker 1: said no, yeah, you don't need that.
- 57:01Speaker 2: That's that's just knee jerk reaction.
- 57:03Speaker 1: Yes, and I'm perfectly fine.
- 57:05Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I mean if you if you
- 57:09Speaker 2: put some dirt in there and then sealed up the wound,
- 57:11Speaker 2: maybe you would have some kind of problem, but otherwise
- 57:14Speaker 2: you're not going to have problem. As long as the
- 57:15Speaker 2: wound is cleaned, it's not an issue.
- 57:17Speaker 1: Yes, But the average person will say yes, well.
- 57:21Speaker 2: Yeah, because you're trained to believe the authorities, you know,
- 57:24Speaker 2: and they're they're only trained based on their schooling. Just
- 57:27Speaker 2: do this, okay, you know they're there. It's not like
- 57:30Speaker 2: everybody goes often does research and goes, well should I
- 57:34Speaker 2: really do that? They don't do that. People don't do
- 57:36Speaker 2: that no matter what your education level is.
- 57:39Speaker 1: But this was an example of when a doctor actually
- 57:41Speaker 1: is necessary.
- 57:43Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, sure. Sure. A lot of things, you know,
- 57:45Speaker 2: anything to do with damage, physical damage, well that's probably
- 57:49Speaker 2: a good idea. Some things you can handle yourself. You
- 57:52Speaker 2: just have to use some kind of discernment. Yeah, so
- 57:56Speaker 2: that's what you do. That's that Medical used to be
- 58:00Speaker 2: in the US about four percent of GDP. Now it's
- 58:03Speaker 2: almost eighteen eighteen percent of GDP. This is insane because
- 58:09Speaker 2: everything has to be medicalized everything, and the grocery stores
- 58:14Speaker 2: are filled with concoctions to help treat the symptom of
- 58:17Speaker 2: this or treat the symptom. And this is all like insanity.
- 58:20Speaker 2: But we're in insane world. So in a healthy world,
- 58:26Speaker 2: the medical system would be far smaller, doing surgeries and
- 58:31Speaker 2: helping counsel you. Hey, you shouldn't be eating donuts every day. Okay,
- 58:37Speaker 2: maybe you should eat some fruit and have some vegetables
- 58:40Speaker 2: or whatever, you know, whatever advice you want to say,
- 58:42Speaker 2: right and guide people to be healthy. Now you're here
- 58:46Speaker 2: to take these pills and get out of my office,
- 58:49Speaker 2: and I charge your two hundred bucks. So we have
- 58:51Speaker 2: a broken system.
- 58:54Speaker 1: Exactly. And you would think, you would think that people
- 58:58Speaker 1: would be healthier today with old the pharmaceuticals.
- 59:03Speaker 2: No, because we have all these other things going on,
- 59:05Speaker 2: right the pharmaceuticals. We have, you know, endless entertainment, So
- 59:10Speaker 2: you're indoors all the time, you're not getting sunshine, not
- 59:13Speaker 2: getting well. Some people do they go to the gym,
- 59:16Speaker 2: not getting exercise. You can so obesities off the charts.
- 59:22Speaker 2: You can see people are pale. They don't get any sunshine.
- 59:26Speaker 2: They're not eating properly, so they're malnourished. They don't know
- 59:29Speaker 2: they're malnourished. So all these things are you know, you've
- 59:32Speaker 2: got a really sick society. You can't fix them. When drugs,
- 59:35Speaker 2: it's never going to happen. But they try. Oh, take ozempic.
- 59:39Speaker 2: That's a great idea. Well instead of stopping eating the donuts,
- 59:44Speaker 2: they go take o z empic. Great, great, Well that's
- 59:46Speaker 2: a big profit stream, but it's not making you a
- 59:49Speaker 2: better person, not making you healthier. Maybe you lose weight initially,
- 59:52Speaker 2: but maybe your home, your entire digestism stops working properly forever.
- 59:59Speaker 2: Then what you know, there's you know, there's always somebody
- 1:00:03Speaker 2: trying to come up with a magic pill, and people
- 1:00:05Speaker 2: love magic pills, magic shots, and they never really work,
- 1:00:10Speaker 2: or magic procedures. Oh we'll just do gastric bypass. I
- 1:00:12Speaker 2: haven't known people who got bay. See that's why I
- 1:00:17Speaker 2: can't do audiobooks. Gastric bypasses and they regain their weight.
- 1:00:24Speaker 2: They eventually regain their weight because they figure out a
- 1:00:26Speaker 2: way to cheat the system because they still want to
- 1:00:28Speaker 2: eat Canoli's or whatever. Right, So you know, none of
- 1:00:31Speaker 2: these things really work, but people keep on going for
- 1:00:35Speaker 2: them because they're promoted. They're on the TV all the time.
- 1:00:38Speaker 2: Their doctors tell them what do and do this and
- 1:00:41Speaker 2: do that, and it generally a bad idea.
- 1:00:45Speaker 1: Well, I've got my own squad wreck and I'm going
- 1:00:47Speaker 1: to now go and do some squats and bench.
- 1:00:49Speaker 2: Press, all right, but be like, are you kind of
- 1:00:54Speaker 2: tape it and wan and.
- 1:00:56Speaker 1: Send you the video? Wink wink.
- 1:00:57Speaker 2: Oh, well, very interested in that, that's right, dude?
- 1:01:02Speaker 1: How can how can I follow your work?
- 1:01:05Speaker 2: I don't know what gender you are though you're female?
- 1:01:09Speaker 1: Right, yeah I identify yes?
- 1:01:12Speaker 2: Yeah? If he sheet it, I'm sorry? What are you saying?
- 1:01:18Speaker 1: How can I follow your work?
- 1:01:21Speaker 2: On sub stack? Pretty easy to find Roman Bistrionic and
- 1:01:24Speaker 2: uh book New Book Tender merciesbook dot Com or on Amazon.
- 1:01:31Speaker 2: I think people people so far really like it. It's
- 1:01:33Speaker 2: a lot of fun. Did you read it? I don't
- 1:01:35Speaker 2: remember if you did.
- 1:01:36Speaker 1: I haven't read your book yet.
- 1:01:38Speaker 2: Good, good, gret great for an interview. Didn't read the book, dude?
- 1:01:43Speaker 2: Go do your spots. I think you really enjoy it
- 1:01:46Speaker 2: or your wife will enjoy it.
- 1:01:48Speaker 1: Is an audio version yet.
- 1:01:51Speaker 2: No, it's somebody working on it. Then the computer blew up,
- 1:01:53Speaker 2: so it's kind of stuck at the moment. I was
- 1:01:56Speaker 2: trying to find a British sounding female, but this guy
- 1:01:59Speaker 2: is British sounding dude, which was not my first choice
- 1:02:03Speaker 2: because this is basically the journey of Victoria, who's female
- 1:02:08Speaker 2: unless you think she's not. That's up to you to
- 1:02:11Speaker 2: decide that, and so it's mostly from her journey. So
- 1:02:19Speaker 2: I wanted a female to do it, but I haven't
- 1:02:20Speaker 2: found anybody to do it yet. So if you know somebody,
- 1:02:23Speaker 2: let me know. Well I want it to sound British
- 1:02:27Speaker 2: too because it takes place in London and Lester, England.
- 1:02:30Speaker 1: So well, I definitely want the audiobook when it's available.
- 1:02:34Speaker 2: Yeah, well it's a process. You know somebody who can
- 1:02:37Speaker 2: do it.
- 1:02:37Speaker 1: Let me know, all right. Reben Vustjanik, thank you for
- 1:02:41Speaker 1: joining me in the changes.
- 1:02:43Speaker 2: Thanks again, it's been fun.
