Get ready to have your mind blown wide open in this electrifying episode of Yogi and the Beach Man! Hosts Jim (Yogi) and Rick (The Beach Man), the dynamic cousin duo, sit down with investigative author Michael Dorfman, broadcasting live from San Miguel de Allende, Mexico. At 83 years young, Michael’s sharper than ever—pickleball champ, plant-based pioneer, and truth-seeker extraordinaire. This isn’t just a conversation; it’s a full-on rebellion against the corporate propaganda machine!

From the sun-soaked shores of Port Charlotte, Florida, Jim and Rick unpack Michael’s wild journey—from his Brooklyn roots to his 17-year plant-based odyssey sparked by The China Study. But that’s just the warm-up. Things heat up when they dive into his 2024 bombshell book, Information Wars: The Battle for Truth and Freedom. Michael pulls no punches, exposing how Big Pharma, Big Tobacco, and the corporate media have been pulling the wool over our eyes for decades—think censored Facebook posts, ivermectin bans, and the climate change “crisis” agenda. 

Ever wonder why your doctor won’t talk prevention? Or why the U.S. keeps flexing on Russia, Iran, and China? Michael’s got the receipts, and he’s spilling it all—connecting the dots from Vietnam body bags to Gaza’s latest headlines. The trio tackles the censorship industrial complex, the Deep State’s war games, and why the dollar’s reign might be on borrowed time. Plus, Michael drops a must-listen podcast list (The Duran, Judge Napolitano, and more) to help you escape the echo chamber and find the real scoop.

This episode is a rollercoaster of revelations—funny, fierce, and unfiltered. Whether you’re a skeptic, a health nut, or just tired of being fed lies, you’ll be hitting replay to catch every jaw-dropping moment. Tune in Thursday and join the fight for truth—because once you hear this, there’s no going back!

From her mystical roots near Machu Picchu to her life in Florida, Mila shares her alchemy of hypnosis, coaching, and energy work—revealing how she tailors multiple modalities to each client’s unique journey.

As she weaves a spell of relaxation and release—complete with a snow-white dove and a cloud of forgetfulness—the air crackles with possibility. What buried baggage will Yogi let go? What revelations await on the other side? This episode isn’t just a conversation—it’s an experience, packed with practical wisdom for reprogramming your mind and a front-row seat to a hypnotic journey that’s as unpredictable as it is profound. Tune in—you won’t want to miss where this one takes you.

Get ready to kick back in Southwest Florida with Jim the Yogi and Rick the BeachMan—your favorite Michigan-to-Florida transplants! This episode’s a wild ride as these two "opposites-attract" cousings trade tales and tangents. Picture Rick marveling at a Florida panther prowling his neighbor’s yard, while Jim’s grooving to reggae beats and confessing to a rule-breaking Rastafarian reggae bash from his Navy days (banana leaf rolls, anyone?).

The real heart of this one, though, is their trip down memory lane with past guests who’ve lit up the mic. They reminisce about the dog food innovators who ditched the poison kibble and crafted nutritious grub packed with whole foods, the compassion queen who floored everyone by loving her would-be assassin, and the mushroom maestro healing folks with nature’s wildest remedies. These stories spark some fiery debates—Covid jabs, statins, and “white man diets” get the full Jim-and-Rick treatment. Expect laughs, jaw-drops, and a few head-scratchers as their zen-meets-beach energy bounces off each other. Will they skirt the occult or plunge into life’s big mysteries? Hit play for a witty, heartfelt romp that’ll leave you grinning and maybe a little wiser. This one’s a keeper—tune in!
