What Led to the COUP in MALI? | Martin A. Klein | Professor of History | #185 HR
My friend Professor Martin A. Klein discusses the factors that led to the coup in Mali. The coup was prompted by the soldiers' frustration with their losses on the field and their perception that the civilians weren't providing adequate support. This, combined with corruption, the fall of Gaddafi in Libya, the emergence of radical groups, and racist ideologies held by some groups, created instability in the country. The professor also highlights the involvement of Western powers and the challenges faced by civilian governments in providing support to the military. The coup in Mali is not an isolated incident, as there have been several coups or attempted coups in the country over the years due to various factors such as religious issues, nationalism, and soldiers' grievances.

Les was known for his generosity and community involvement, often giving back to the food banks and opening a community center for kids. He operated his dispensary within the legal gray area of those times and had some trouble with law enforcement, including having money confiscated from him.

What The F#@K are Microplastics? | Dr. Danielle Green | #183 HR #microplastics
My friend Dr. Danielle Green, an associate professor at Anglia Ruskin University, talks about her background and what drove her to ecology. She explains how she fell in love with marine life and the ocean as a child and decided to study marine life to conserve and help save the ecosystem. The conversation then shifts to microplastics pollution in the Falklands, and Dr. Green explains that her research has shown that microplastics pollution in the Falklands is as high as in the UK. She talks about her trip to the Falklands in 2015, where she sampled different parts of the East Island, including some remote little islands off the Falklands, and found high concentrations of microplastics. Dr. Green also talks about the implications of microplastics pollution on wildlife, including seabirds and fish, and how microplastics can affect their feeding and reproductive rights.

The Truth About Anti-Depressants | Robert Whitaker | Mad in America | #180 HR
My friend journalist Robert Whitaker discusses the truth about anti-depressants and the need to bridge the gap between the public perception of mental health and the evidence-based reality. He uncovers the historical perspective on psychiatric treatments and how the long-term studies in the 1960s and 1970s revealed the questionable efficacy of these drugs. Whitaker emphasizes the importance of making the scientific literature known to the public, as studies have shown that individuals who were stabilized off psychiatric medications had better outcomes compared to those who regularly took their medications. He also discusses the ironic truth about antidepressants, highlighting that they do not fix the "low serotonin" in depressed individuals but instead disrupt normal serotonin function and can lead to relapses and dependence. Whitaker argues for a more comprehensive understanding of mental health conditions and the consideration of alternative approaches to treatment.

The World's Most Dangerous Marxist | John Bellamy Foster | #182 HR
My friend John Bellamy Foster, a professor emeritus of Sociology, discusses his journey towards Marxism and his interest in environmental issues. He explains how his involvement in the anti-Vietnam War movement led him to philosophical readings, and how subsequent events like the coup in Chile and economic crises reignited his passion for activism. Foster explains Marx's ecological critique of capitalism and how the concept of "metabolic rift" highlights the alienation between humans and nature caused by capitalism's focus on profit over sustainability. He also discusses the evolution of Marxist theory, the rise of financialization and its relationship to economic stagnation, the changes in the global labor market, and the rise of China. Foster touches on his book "Trump in the White House," which explores the relationship between Trump and neo-fascism. He also highlights the need for a fundamental transformation of society to achieve ecological sustainability, emphasizing the importance of degrowth and planning, and the need to shift towards zero net investment in rich countries. Foster concludes by emphasizing the urgency of investing in saving the planet and promoting sustainable human development, democracy, and equality.

Guy McPherson Ph.D. | The End Of The World | Evolutionary Biologist | #81 HR
My friend Dr. Guy McPherson Ph.D stops by to discuss the end of the world as we know it! Accordion to Dr. McPherson climate change and biodiversity collapse will kill of all human life by 2030. We discuss the different feedback loops that are creating an exponential collapse scenario including heat sinks of asphalt and concrete cities coupled with increased air conditioner usage. We also discuss the history of the greenhouse effect and the scientists who first discovered our role in the climate crisis. We also talk about the greatest comedian and modern day philosopher, George Carlin. This is a hilarious and frightening conversation with a brilliant and compassionate human being!

Killing the Natives: A Retrospective Analysis

Ebook
https://www.amazon.com/Killing-Natives-Retrospective-Guy-McPherson-ebook/dp/B0993SCYY3/
This new edition of “Killing the Natives,” critically evaluates the original edition published in 2004, McPherson’s book focused on cultural criticism. Nearly two decades of hindsight, along with the subsequent accumulation of evidence, allows for an important retrospective analysis. Earth is now experiencing a Mass Extinction Event, abrupt climate change, and the ongoing needs and desires of nearly eight billion people. Excerpt:"I think the original version of Chapter 1 has held up quite well since it was written. I was naïve about several topics when I penned Chapter 1 some two decades ago, yet the basic ideas I was attempting to transmit are still important and timely.It has become increasingly clear that we have failed in our, “responsibility to use our wealth and power to preserve—rather than exploit—other cultures, languages, and species.” The United States has not served as, “stewards of the world’s capital of natural and cultural resources.” Quite to the contrary, the United States has led the pursuit of life-destroying disaster capitalism.""Killing the Natives" connects the world of economics, the government, and social justice -- three enterprises that are inextricably linked despite the appearance given by laissez-faire economic policies. The intersection of environmental protection, social justice, and the human economy represents rich but essentially uncharted territory.

A Journey Inside the Mind of Dogs | Clive D. L. Wynne Ph.D. | #176 HR
My Friend Clive D. L. Wynne discusses his research on marsupial mammals in Australia, highlighting the cognitive abilities of species like quokkas and fat-tailed dunnarts that are often considered unintelligent. He also emphasizes the importance of early life experiences and socialization in shaping a dog's behavior and ability to form relationships with humans and other animals. Wynne talks about the motivation and trainability of dogs, debunking the misconception that all dogs are primarily motivated by food rewards. He also explores the fascinating ability of dogs to understand human pointing gestures and shares a study that shows how quickly dogs can learn this skill. Additionally, Wynne underscores the need for responsible dog ownership and advocates for adopting from shelters or reputable sources rather than supporting puppy mills. He discusses the history of the dog-human relationship and the origins of domestication, as well as the role of dogs in the lives of historical figures. Overall, Wynne provides insights into the minds of dogs and challenges common misconceptions surrounding their intelligence and behavior.

A Conversation with Sage Francis | Hip Hop Legend | #167 HR
My Friend Sage Francis discusses his experiences touring in Germany and the unique dynamics he encountered with the German audience. He initially felt that the crowd was disengaged and unresponsive, but after his performance, he realized they were just being respectful and showed their appreciation individually. He also mentions that Germany has a strong hip-hop culture and love for graffiti. However, he found it increasingly difficult to promote his shows and engage with fans on social media in Germany due to a lack of social media engagement and the use of different platforms.
Despite these challenges, he still has a love for Germany and would like to return in the future. He also briefly mentions some other countries he has toured in and highlights the beauty of Iceland's landscape. Sage Francis also touches on his collaborations with different artists, highlighting his favorite collaboration with Yann Tiersen on the song "The Best of Times."
He expresses his preference for working in an insular and solitary manner and the abundance of beats he currently has waiting for him. Despite having multiple projects on the back burner, he hints at the possibility of releasing new music in the near future. Additionally, Sage reflects on the responsibilities of fatherhood and how it initially seemed like a daunting challenge, but is grateful for the experience. He also discusses how he and other artists challenged the ego-driven nature of hip-hop by introducing vulnerability and different topics into their music.
Sage Francis also talks about using his music as a platform to address and raise awareness about political issues, such as his songs "Makeshift Patriot" and "Ubuntu." He emphasizes the importance of speaking up through art and shedding light on injustices.
Lastly, Sage Francis discusses upcoming projects and collaborations, including the Strange Famous Fest he organized in Denver, the upcoming album "A Line in the Sky" by Meter Maids, an album by trademark and mopes called "Ham and Eggers," and his own upcoming album which he is determined to finish. He also mentions the challenges of the streaming era and the difficulties in selling physical products, but appreciates the support of those who still purchase physical copies. Sage concludes by giving shoutouts and expressing his excitement about traveling overseas again after the pandemic.

The Gilgo Beach Serial Killer | Matty Brockmeyer | #168 TRUE CRIME HR
My Friend Matty Brockmeyer stops by to discuss The Gilgo Beach Serial Killer case, which took place on Long Island, New York, involved the targeting and murder of sex workers. The investigation began when Shannon Gilbert, a missing sex worker, was heard pleading for help. Eventually, 11 bodies were discovered, with four linked to a suspect named Rex Heuermann. Heuermann, an architect, was identified through the use of burner phones and his presence at crime scenes. DNA evidence, including a hair found on a piece of burlap, also linked him to the crimes. The serial killer's disturbing Google search history, interest in violent pornography, and potential mafia involvement were discussed. The possibility of multiple serial killers in the area and the correlation between serial killers and hunting were also explored. Additionally, there was speculation about the potential involvement of Heuermann's husband in the murders due to his wife's absence during the crimes.

Inside The Mind Of A Killer: LORI VALLOW | Matthew Brockmeyer | #175 TRUE CRIME HR
My Friend Matthew Brockmeyer discusses the case of Lori Vallow, a woman involved in a series of disturbing events. He explores her unconventional beliefs, her relationships with Chad Daybell and Charles Valo, and the disappearance of her children. Matthew raises suspicions about Lori's brother, Alex Cox, being involved in the murders and expresses his disgust towards both him and Lori. He also delves into the question of whether Lori's religious beliefs should be considered as a factor in her actions.
"Charles goes on a business trip to California, and while he's away, Lori has a vision from God that he's going to die. She takes all of his belongings to a storage unit, cancels his plane tickets, and even locks him out of the house upon his return. The police question Lori about these actions, but she is able to flirt her way out of trouble and gaslight them. Eventually, Lori's brother, Alex, gets into a fight with Charles and shoots him in the head, claiming self-defense. Lori then flees the scene in Charles's car, goes to McDonald's and a store, and returns to the police, charming them with her laughter and excuses. This incident exemplifies Lori's ability to manipulate and charm people to get what she wants."

Dr. Michelle Perro | The Truth About Glyphosate | Pediatrician & Author #162 HR
Dr. Michelle Perro, a pediatrician and advocate for pediatric health, shares her journey of discovering the harmful effects of pesticides, particularly glyphosate, on children's health. She explains how glyphosate acts as an antibiotic, disrupts the microbiome, acts as an endocrine disruptor causing metabolic dysregulation, and binds essential minerals needed for brain function.
Dr. Perro emphasizes the importance of eliminating pesticide use and improving soil quality for healthier, nutrient-rich food. She discusses the need for regenerative organic agriculture and supporting local farming, as well as the importance of using food as medicine and adopting a vegan lifestyle.
Dr. Perro also criticizes the pharmaceutical industry for potential adverse effects on children and emphasizes the importance of addressing the root causes of health issues. She highlights the link between industrial food, glyphosate exposure, and chronic illnesses in children and adults. Dr. Perro discusses the impact of glyphosate on gut health and mental health disorders, as well as the need for regulating lobbying and industry influence.
She also addresses biases in scientific studies conducted by industry-funded organizations and emphasizes the role of nutrition in disease prevention. Dr. Perro further highlights the various environmental toxicants harming children and calls for a Bill of Rights for children's access to clean air, water, and food. She expresses her optimism for change and aims to provide affordable and downloadable information to empower parents in taking control of their children's health.

Glyphosate is a widely used herbicide that is commonly known by its brand name, Roundup. It is a non-selective herbicide, meaning that it kills all plants that it comes into contact with. Glyphosate is used to kill weeds in agricultural fields, gardens, and lawns.
There are a number of potential dangers of glyphosate on the environment, animals, insects, and humans.
**Environmental dangers**
Glyphosate can contaminate soil and water, and it can persist in the environment for many years. This can have a negative impact on a variety of plants and animals. Glyphosate can also disrupt the nitrogen cycle, which can lead to problems with water quality.
**Animal dangers**
Glyphosate can be harmful to animals, both wild and domestic. It can cause poisoning in animals that ingest it, and it can also disrupt their metabolism. Glyphosate has been linked to a number of health problems in animals, including cancer, liver damage, and reproductive problems.
**Insect dangers**
Glyphosate can be harmful to insects, both beneficial and harmful. It can kill bees, butterflies, and other pollinators, which can have a negative impact on the environment. Glyphosate has also been linked to the decline of monarch butterflies.

Dr. Jeffrey Mogil | The Science Of Pain | Neuroscience #161 HR
Dr. Jeffrey Mogil discusses the use of live animals in scientific research and the potential for alternative methods using computer models. He explains the difficulty of programming a computer to react like a biological system without a complete understanding of how the system works. He also discusses the use of AI in his research, specifically in training a machine learning algorithm to detect pain in mice based on facial expressions. Additionally, Dr. Mogil emphasizes the importance of measuring spontaneous pain in pre-clinical pain research and explains that current drugs for managing chronic pain have limited efficacy and serious side effects. He believes that the field of pain research is at a point of rapid progress and expects significant advancements in the next few decades.
