In this episode, host Doug McKenty takes a deep dive into the controversial Terrain Theory of disease with Dr. Andrew Kaufman. Though much of modern medicine is based on the notion that invading microorganisms are the root cause of disease, Dr. Kaufman questions the prevailing theory and posits environmental causes are the reason people get sick. If true, detoxification, and immune-boosting supplementation, should replace many prevalent treatment protocols which may reduce symptoms, but never achieves the homeostasis required to live a truly healthy life. He has recently produced two documentaries elucidating his position. In "Terrain: The Film" he painstakingly addresses the scientific foundations of germ theory, while "Hypocratic Hypocrisy" details a corrupt history of modern medicine allowing the propagation of treatments that may be profitable, but show little efficacy in actually curing disease.

In this episode of The Shift, host Doug McKenty discusses the concept of the Black Nobility with astrologer and podcaster Ian Ferguson. They take a deep dive into the theory that a lineage of very wealthy families originated in the Middle East, migrated to the Mediterranean, then remained in power long after the fall of the Roman Empire. Their reach extended into the royal families of Europe, and some speculate their power and wealth continue to manipulate world events in the modern age.

In this Episode, host Doug McKenty talks about the alchemy of Paracelsus with modern practitioner Phoenix Aurelius. Stay tuned as they discuss the European alchemical tradition and how it can be used in the modern day to construct a sustainable lifestyle that is the perfect substitute for those adrift in the post-colonial haze. Not only does the conversation include a description of the alchemical process including theories of diagnosis and treatment of disease, but also a meta understanding of the lifestyle and economics of alchemy which supports a sustainable balance in harmony with the natural world. Perhaps most importantly, the European Alchemical tradition provides a bridge that connects to all the esoteric traditions of the world, including Ayurvedic, Traditional Chinese and Shamanic lineages.
