Physicist Tom Sheahen explains how to expand human thinking and step up to a higher plane of understanding.

It is a challenging but most interesting interview.

You may not agree with all he says, but, in the words of Albert Einstein, “I want to know God’s thoughts, the rest are details”.

We ruminate over free speech and the Christchurch Call and democracy as our saviour.

And we visit The Mailroom with Mrs Producer.

Leighton is on summer break, so we are highlighting some of his favourite guests from 2023.

Professor James Allan returns to discuss our election, Jordan Peterson, The Voice, and Trumps legal challenges.

Jim encourages any so-called conservative parties to “fight the culture wars”.

Has any party in New Zealand got the required courage?

Is there “weaponised collusion” between The White House and the DOJ?

And what are the top universities and law schools teaching?

It’s a broad and energetic conversation.

In a world of lies, scepticism is your friend.

David Bell is a Public Health Physician and biotech consultant in global health.

What he has to say should be heard by every thinking person in this country, and every other “free” state on the planet.

As the World Health Organisation meets to convince countries to endorse changes to it’s original purpose, Dr Bell warns that “the WHO has changed and now it is a threat”.

Science is in trouble.

Facts have taken a back seat to ideology, and political activism masquerades as scholarship. We live in an age of increasing unreason. Can science be saved?

John Staddon, Professor of Biology and Psychology and “battle-scarred” by decades of experience, urges scientists to resist the demands for their unconditional surrender.

AGAINST THE GREAT RESET; 18 THESES CONTRA THE NEW WORLD ORDER…

In one of the most informative and enjoyable interviews, we talk with editor and contributor Michael Walsh.

He and sixteen eminent writers contributed a total of eighteen chapters on the World Economic Forum.

Each author wrote on a different aspect; for example, the socialist history of woke capitalism, big tech and government censorship, and the WEF’s ideas for a fourth industrial revolution with China's commitment to being a leader of a post western world.

The events in Israel on October 7 shocked the world.

The differing reactions from various countries, cultures, races and religions should have shocked just as much.

Via the writing of Josephus, Simon Sebag Montefiore and Douglas Murray, we can improve perspective.
