This first installment of their Psychedelic Cults series covers the early history of hallucinogens and their impact on the 60's and hippie culture. Unsatisfied with chemical enlightenment, some psychonauts, including Bart Hughes, Amanda Feilding, and Joe Mellen, pursued trepanation (i.e. boring a hole in their skull) in their eternal quest to stay high forever.
Sherry Shriner has it all: aliens, demons, orgone weapons, Taylor Swift, vampires, and MURDER!
While most of us use bleach as a household cleaner, it has gained popularity as a miracle cure-all in the form of Miracle Mineral Solutions (MMS). Jim Humble, the creators of MMS, even founded a church to peddle his baloney, the Genesis II Church of Health and Healing. Pastor Jim Baldwin and Sam Little have taken MMS to Uganda, and Kerri Rivera has taken it to the desperate parents of autistic children.
In their fifth installment of None Dare Call It News, Dylan and Brent (with Forrest in orb form) discuss Brian Kolfage, who made news last December when his GoFundMe campaign to build a border wall between the US and Mexico went viral. But just who is Kolfage, and should we be worried about how he paid for his yacht and his taste for faked images? Find out that and more in this episode!
In this episode, Dylan, Brent, and Forrest discuss the theory that the earth is expanding. They cover the early 20th century origins of the theory and it's bid to replace the contracting earth theory. After that, they discuss the role Marie Tharp's cartography played in overturning the expanding earth in favor of plate tectonics. Lastly, they discuss the main booster of expanding eartherism today, comic book artist Neal Adams and his disgust over subduction.
In the latest installment of their None Dare Call it News series, Dylan, Brent, and Forrest discuss the New York Times article "#MAGA Church: The Doomsday Prophet Who Says the Bible Predicted Trump" by Sam Kestenbaum. We learn that Trump is Jehu, the Clintons are Ahab and Jezebel, and it's perfectly ok to not tell people your works fiction are totally not prophecies.
In the second part of their mental illness denialism series, Dylan, Brent, and Forrest delve into Scientology's anti-psychiatry organization, the Citizen's Commission on Human Rights, and their "documentary" Psychiatry: An Industry of Death.
In the first installment of their mental illness denialism series, Dylan, Brent, and Forrest cover the psychiatric landscape in the 1950s that gave birth to the Bible of anti-psychiatry: The Myth of Mental Illness by Thomas Szasz. Along the way they debunk the more common Szaszian arguments and discuss their own personal experiences with mental illness.
Because of Dylan's nefarious kidney stone affliction, we decided to give you a minisode this week featuring Brent (and his cousin Jub Jubson) reading the poems of Lyndon LaRouche, and Forrest explaining our new series, None Dare Call It Wrong!, and correcting the mistakes we made in our previous episode on mass incarceration.
In this week's episode, Dylan, Brent, and Forrest discuss the 2019 report "Mass Incarceration: The Whole Pie 2019" from the Prison Policy Initiative. They focus on the report's explanation of five myths about mass incarceration: the role of non-violent drug offenders, private prisons, prison labor, community supervision, and violent and sexual offenses on mass incarceration.
