  • Jonathan Cohler:  “Whole rubric of global temperature is a fake & a fraud” | Tom Nelson Pod #310

    About Jonathan Cohler: 

    Graduated in 1980 from Harvard in Physics. Phi Beta Kappa. David McCord Prize.

    Since the 2010s, I have guest lectured occasionally in the physics department at Harvard

    Since the late 1990s, I have been keenly interested in the developing disinformation campaign often known as "climate science." I read extensively in this area.

    In recent years, I have taken an interest in investigating so-called "AI" software, and the planned total take-over of public discourse by the big tech companies and their co-conspirators in our current government.

  • Joe Duarte: “On Cook’s “97%” fraud” | Tom Nelson Pod #309

    First-gen American of Mexican descent.

    PhD in Social Psychology.

    Reason, truth, Rostand, marksmanship, and Kate McKinnon.

    I stand with – and in – the rain.


    The discussion between Tom and Joe Duarte centers around Joe's criticism of the widely cited statistic that 97% of scientists agree on human-caused global warming. Joe argues that the study supporting this claim was fundamentally flawed and fraudulent, relying on a methodologically unsound review of abstracts by biased, non-expert individuals. He emphasizes the widespread dissemination and acceptance of this flawed study as evidence of institutional failure in academia and the media.

  • Matt Landman: FrankenSkies 2025: Climate Chains | Tom Nelson Pod #306

    About Matt Landman:

    —

    First the truth will upset you, but then it will set you free.


    I never thought I would be an activist but I guess that’s life, one door closes another door opens. For me I’d worked so many different jobs and spent so much of my life in a classroom that I just wanted to get grounded and learn about growing food. I worked on a farm and there I opened my eyes for the first time to the FrankenSkies we never knew. From the day I realized something abnormal was occurring in our skies, I was driven to do something about it. Through my devotion and passion, I’ve realized incredible traction via social media. My goal is very simple, it is unity. Truth is all embracing and our strength comes from this bond we all share.
