Awakened Nation with Brad Szollose

Dave Sanderson was the last man off of US Airways Flight 1549 when it landed in the Hudson River in NYC in 2009. He dove into he icy cold water that day and almost died as his body succumbed to hypothermia...only to be scooped out of the river by 2 of NYC Firefighters. Now, 15 years later, Dave shares with Awakened Nation his return to swimming the same spot in the Hudson River with a group of Navy Seals, and the memories it stirred up. Dave explains something that no one could have warned him about and that was Post Traumatic Growth Syndrome... something Dave talks about in his TEDTalk... instead of getting depressed and withdrawn, he had the opposite happened. This is a powerful episode as Dave returns to Awakened Nation. Link to our first interview with Dave Sanderson: https://open.spotify.com/episode/7celqJBBPiuKLty7dwgBEg About Dave Sanderson: On January 15, 2009, Dave Sanderson was one of the last passengers off the plane that crashed into the Hudson River, best known as The Miracle on the Hudson, and considered to be the most successful ditching in aviation history.

If you were under a mind control, would you know it? Jason Christoff joins Brad Szollose on Awakened Nation to share the secrets our government, Hollywood and media use to make the public easier to control, govern, lie to, manipulate, coerce and steal from.

You may think you are not susceptible to mind control, you'd be wrong. Jason specializes in exposing the manipulative psychology, behavior modification, brainwashing, mental conditioning, and mind control that have been weaponized against the public by media and government WORLDWIDE!!!

How can men find their way in a world that rejects traditional male role models as "toxic?" Leadership Development Coach and host of the True Freedom podcast, Bodhi Aldridge joins me on Awakened Nation to help men of all ages get in touch with true masculinity. Author of Visionary Male Leaders, Bodhi has dedicated his life to deeper meaning, helping CEOs, men in their 40, 50s and 60s, get unstuck, to live far more meaningful lives. "Men want to fee freedom, while women want to feel connection...it's why men root for their favorite football team, or look for that one man to look up to." A Visionary Male Leader himself, Bodhi brings us a much needed conversation to Awakened Nation. We talk about the difference between Andrew Tate versus Jordan Peterson, modern masculinity and traditional archetypes. www.freedomminicourse.com About Bodhi Aldridge: Bodhi Aldridge is passionate about guiding male business owners and leaders around the globe to become more present, magnetic and self-aware leaders, husbands and fathers. His journey as a father, a grandfather, a lawyer, a coach and facilitator has taken him across the world diving deep into traditional teachings and contemporary leadership development. "What I know is… all men long for freedom. The problem is, none of us really understand what true freedom means. We think it’s something external - more money, more time or an endless summer…" But true freedom comes from within. Having worked with thousands of male business leaders and owners around the world for over 20 years, there are three main problems they want a solution to (even if they don’t know it yet): 1. Their Distracted Mind 2. Their Resistance to Life 3. Their Sense of Overwhelm "The men I work with are basically me, 25 years ago. I had a loving marriage, 4 great kids, a thriving legal practice and a beautiful home. But in my efforts to build my business and family, I had lost touch with myself." At 60, Bodhi has found a path to true freedom within. His obsession is to share this knowledge with as many men as possible and guide them to create a life of Freedom, Flow, Abundance, Impact and Joy... whilst more skillfully navigating the ups and downs of professional and personal life. Bodhi spends time with his wife of 40 years and they live by the beach near Byron Bay, Australia; with 4 children and 10 grandchildren who keep them tapping into the pure joy and innocence that life can offer... traveling around the globe and his daily practices of surfing, yoga and music.

This is Part 3 of 3 in the Red Pill revolution Series. ABOUT JEREMY AYRES: Co-Author of The Red Pill Revolution and a lifelong pursuer of truth in all aspects of the human experience, there are few conspiratory rabbit holes that Jeremy hasn't explored. This well-rounded perspective has provide him a rare and unique take on life and how we live it. Jeremy sees clearly, the deception and manipulation found everywhere in modern life. Especially in the Medical Industrial Complex and their partners in the Pharmaceutical & Food industries. A trained Health Practitioner in the UK, Jeremy has helped thousands of people heal naturally from a variety of serious diagnoses, including his own wife Natalie who was terminally ill with cancer when they first met. No subject is off-limits. BACKGROUND: International Natural Health Educator Jeremy Ayres was awarded Senior Practitioner of Physical Medicine (SBRCP) for his outstanding work. Originally trained as an Osteopath (DO). Jeremy later coined the new title NaturoPractic Consultant (NC), after realizing that his successful healing protocols combined the best of Chiropractic, Osteopathy & Naturopathy. His life goal has been to bring forward the knowledge and wisdom of our elders, particularly the Eastern practices and traditional ways with Western scientific proof and collaborations, and return to a cohesive philosophy of healing for a very sick world. He began training at The British School of Osteopathy in 1990, before moving to the Northern Counties School of Osteopathy, where he trained under Harry Hawes, the nationally esteemed osteopath.

An NHS Pharmacist in the UK (England), Graham Atkinson was tasked with the unwelcome responsibility of establishing and running a NHS COVID Vaccination Center that served his local population in 2020. He watched as thousands walked through his door believing that they were receiving their ticket to freedom...when there was nothing further from the truth. "I wasn't allowed to say anything to warn them of the possible side effects." No longer capable of withholding information, Graham walked away. His story is one of extreme bravery and conviction for what is right and truthful. This second part interview from the creators of The Red Pill Revolution is no conspiracy, Graham is a front line health care worker for the NHS (National Health Services), with a high-ranking position and the education to be a credible witness to this global ruse. This episode covers the culture of lies over the past 4 years, along with the profits and deceit that is driving our medical system leadership to a breaking point. About Graham Atkinson: In early 2020 Graham Atkinson was managing a large NHS General Practice in Northern England when the COVID pandemic halted everything and everyone in their tracks. It was from that capacity and perspective that he soon realized the deception and lies coming from our national leaders. Graham Atkinson hates liars. With over 30 years NHS experience behind him, he knew how the whole NHS system worked. He knew how the pharmaceutical industry worked. He could source and understand complex clinical research papers and understood hospital activity data. Having served as a Clinical Pharmacist and a Board-Level Director in local, regional and national roles, he had the confidence to challenge the mainstream narrative with the actual facts. And it was not difficult to blow large holes in the mainstream corporate virus and vaccine narratives. It was very obvious to any neutral observer that the vast majority of patients were being disadvantaged and many harmed by the rationing of core NHS services in the pursuit of “zero COVID.” Individually, Graham could easily find colleagues that would share their concerns and agree with his conclusions. But in groups, their views remained unspoken. In his profession, he was becoming an isolated voice and was asked to keep his views to himself. His health began to suffer. Then came the very unwelcome responsibility of establishing and running a NHS COVID Vaccination Center that served his local population. He watched as thousands walked through the door believing that they were receiving their ticket to freedom. It was that experience that pushed Graham to the point where he was no longer willing to participate in what was being done in his name. He had tried his best to change things from the inside. So he stopped participating and walked away. “I know that some patients will have suffered and some will have been harmed due to the actions of the NHS in 2020 and 2021. I wish to apologize to the people of my community for any suffering and harm that has happened in my name.” Graham’s passion and focus now is to help to build the future healthcare system that we all deserve. A system built on truth. One that allows all disciplines, knowledge and individuals that can deliver real and true healing to the communities they serve. “I am delighted and humbled to be joining The Red Pill Revolution team in this quest at this critical time for all of us.” Graham’s goal now is to be a magnet and inspiration for other professionals to contact and share their experiences and clear their consciences. These “Statements of Conscience” will published en masse on this very website, thus creating a worldwide collective that may very well serve to become future legal affidavits. We will build back better. But we will build back better… without “them.” MORE INFO AT: ⁠https://theredpillrevolution.com/graham-atkinson/⁠ HOST: Brad Szollose

When his wife came down with MS, John Gusty set out on a quest to learn the truth about health...a journey that awakened him to the distortion and lies that are pushed to assure that patients become indentured servants to the medical industry here in America.
