The Malliard Report: Where the Paranormal Meets Pennsylvania Grit.

02132018

This week on The Malliard Report Jim opens up the phone lines to see what has been on the minds of the listeners. There have been a lot of major news worthy events over the last few weeks and it is always interesting to see what you dear listener have to say about it.

On February 6, 2018 Elon Musk launched a groundbreaking payload into space, and secured himself into the history books of modern science. While it may seem a tad gimmicky launching your very own personal roadster into space with the likes of David Bowie blasting through the speakers, it goes far deeper than that. While the motto for “Starman” was “Don’t Panic”, it is safe to say that the government sector may very well be doing just that. The Falcon Heavy launch was more than just being able to send a Tesla to the stars, it was am enormous leap for the private sector; showing the world how bloated and unnecessary government programs have been.

The prime example of the now completely inefficient nature of government programs can be seen simply in the operating costs of the two different platforms. For NASA to launch any sort of payload it costs the program 59,000 dollars a kilogram to launch. For the SPACE X program it costs a mere 49 dollars a kilogram. Yes that is correct. The SPACE X program is able to operate at .001% of that of NASA. As to why these costs are so dramatically different is another story for another day, but the bottom line is that it has been shown the private sector is able to operate beyond the capabilities of that of government entities and in a far more efficient manner.In addition to the brilliance of the Falcon Heavy launch, one takeway that can be gleaned from the event is the stunning views of the Earth that were captured during the on board filming. The photographs that showed in great detail the Earth, its continents, its weather patterns, and of course its shape. We’ll just end this part of the conversation there.

During this episode Jim poses a question that certainly is one to get the ol’ noodle going on several different fronts. The 1960s was one of the most pivotal decades in modern history. The 60s bore witness to The British Invasion, multiple major social movements, and two of the biggest events in human and conspiratorial history; The Moon landing and the assassination of John F Kennedy. While conspiracies are one of the top subjects for The Malliard Report, this episode will not get into depth as to what exactly happened, but rather pose the question “which was the bigger event?”

On this episode you will hear some familiar voices to the show that share some very thought provoking ideas and it is encouraged for you to share yours. So head over to www.malliard.com or connect via Twitter @Malliard and let us know what your thoughts on the events are or any others.

Your browser does not support the audio element.Fake news. A phrase that was once tied to tabloidesque style super market papers has now become a common staple in today’s lexicon. Like many elements that unfortunately flood our daily routines, this has turned to a point to where we now just gloss over when we hear the term. Seeking to combat the ever failing reputation of media, the guest on this week’s episode of The Malliard Report has been a pioneer and trail blazer for the citizen journalist movement that is quickly gaining hold in this seemingly turbulent time.

This week Jim welcomes to the show Lee Stranahan. Lee is an American journalist, talk show host, and advocate for citizen journalism. Hosting a show on the Russian owned Sputnik new agency, Stranahan was originally picked up by the network after being let go by Breitbart for covering the controversies surrounding the Chobani yogurt company and their usage of Syrian refugee workers harboring tuberculosis and numerous sexual assault cases.

Originally moving to Los Angeles to work as a television producer and graphic artist, Lee made his way into reporting during the 2007/2008 writers guild strike. Having started out by making political parody videos on YouTube poking fun at prominent figures of the time (Mitt Money, Rudy Giuliani, etc.) he quickly gained interest and was soon picked up by the Huffington Post. While his edgy humor was the catalyst for his quick success, it was not looked upon as fondly by HuffPo and Lee soon found himself in the circle with Andrew Breitbart. After a handful of firings/rehirings and disputes over his stance on  the death of Alton Sterling, Lee parted ways with Breitbart and is now co-host of Fault Lines on Sputnik Radio.

The passion for citizen journalism is very evident within Lee and this is a really great episode.

Your browser does not support the audio element.This week on The Malliard Report Jim welcomes a guest that is as diverse as he is. Not afraid to shy away from any of the topics, Gerald Posner dives right in to very deep and controversial subjects and presents views that go against the norm. From the mysteries surrounding the Vatican, the always perplexing JFK assassination (his view may shock you), Josef Mengele, and even Martin Luther King Jr. Gerald digs in and brings his legal background to shed new light on these subjects.

Posner has an incredibly impressive background and this plays into his ability to research the unusual. “…one of the youngest attorneys (23) ever hired by Cravath, Swaine & Moore. A Political Science major, Posner was a Phi Beta Kappa and Summa Cum Laude graduate of the University of California at Berkeley (1975), where he was also a national debating champion, winner of the Meiklejohn Award. At Hastings Law School (1978), he was an Honors Graduate and served as the Associate Executive Editor for the Law Review. Of Counsel to Posner & Ferrara, the New York law firm he cofounded, he is a member of the NY and DC bars as well as the International Criminal Court. In the past, he was a regular panelist on HistoryCENTER, the History Channel’s Sunday current events program. He has been a freelance writer for many news magazines, and a regular contributor to NBC, the History Channel, CNN, FOX News, CBS, and MSNBC. In 2009 he was the Chief Investigative Reporter for The Daily Beast. A former member of the National Advisory Board of the National Writers Union, Posner is a member of the Authors Guild, PEN, The Committee to Protect Journalists, and Phi Beta Kappa. He is represented by BrightSight Group for lectures about investigative journalism and his books. His wife, author, Trisha Posner, works with him on all his project”

The Vatican, one of the most well-known places in the world yet shrouded in some of the darkest of mysteries. In Posner’s latest book, he paints an expose’ that reveals some of the shady dealings of one of the largest financiers in the world. Some may find it shocking that a religious institution would be tied to major under dealings, but it would not be the first time. From their secret archives implemented in the 17th century by Pope Paul V to the infamous “Ratlines” (passports issued by the Vatican to NAZI and SS leadership to escape Europe to Central America) during World War II, the Vatican is no stranger to controversy.

This is a short but powerful interview and Gerald’s work is certainly worth looking into. You can find all of Gerald’s books on Amazon and through his website www.posner.com . You can also find Gerald on Twitter @GeraldPosner . For all things Malliard head over to www.malliard.com and connect with Jim on Twitter @Malliard. Make sure to share the show and spread the word.
