Clip: People all across this great nation are in pain. Your most effective talking point are these magic words, less than 1% of people get addicted to Oxycontin, but at some point.

We’re going to do everything in our power to make sure justice is served.

Alex Tsakiris: That’s a clip from the Hulu series. Dope. Sick. A show about the whole Oxycontin and opioid crisis. Which of course is so tragic, so hard to hear, but I think we have to go there, because first and foremost, dope sick is really about the corruption of science.

And that’s really a great tie in to today’s guest. The very excellent Ricky verandas, creator and host of the ripple effect podcast where , he has interviewed some of the most. Top notch. Scientists. I mean, people who just have stellar academic and publishing credentials, but are being.

Band of course, and suppressed because they don’t follow the plan. DEMEC dogma. And you just can’t get a better example. I think Howard example of the corruption of science, then that

So we do talk about that, but if you’ve listened to skeptical, you might anticipate that I pulled Ricky in some other directions as well. For example.

[00:01:31] Alex Tsakiris: We do not want to get pulled into another one of those protracted, , medical discussions

And I think that a lot of the people who are the most outspoken, the people that I’ve taught Dr. Peter McCullough, Dr. Carrie, my day Del Bigtree, Mickey willows, all these people are spiritual or religious and they’re the ones who seem, and I could go down the list.

[00:02:54] Ricky Varandas: You, you attempted to scare the shit out of the population for 18 months and worked on in many cases. There’s a lot of people out there who truly, truly are afraid.

[00:03:04] Ricky Varandas: So I think there’s true believers.

There’s some people who truly are pushing or helping the evil people who have a greater agenda who are. True believers in the nonsense that they’re pushing onto the public, but using these people as ponds

 

[00:03:21] Alex Tsakiris: Ricky is really doing some great work with the ripple effect podcast and with the union of the I wanted show. Terrific show he co-created along with Charlie and Mike and Sam Tripoli.
