The Breakup of Yugoslavia, A Discussion with Patrick MacFarlane
With the recent rising tensions in Kosovo, Patrick MacFarlane invited me on his Vital Dissent Podcast to discuss the breakup of Yugoslavia. This is quite a complex historical event, with many complementary and contradictory narratives attributing the disintegration to internal and external factors. Was deep seated ethnic hatred to blame, or did the Slavic Union fall victim to the forces of empire?

A Question of Memory 2. Recovered Memories
Do people really recall incidents of abuse years after the event? If so, is a trauma based theory of repression necessary to account for this, or can it be attributed to a normal act of forgetting and remembering?

Destroying Yemen, with Dave DeCamp of AntiWar.com
Dave DeCamp, of AntiWar.com, joins Adam Fitzgerald and myself to talk about the United States backing of the Gulf States ongoing war on Yemen. In addition to explaining the narrative of the war, Dave discusses what each actor's deeper geopolitical ambitions might be, and why the US is interested in supporting this mass slaughter of Yemeni people. We also discuss the role the media has played in not reporting this event, and the stark contrast with Ukraine.

The Secret Plot to Kill President William McKinley, with Professor John Koerner
On the 5th of September 1901 President William McKinley was assassinated by anarchist Leon Czolgosz. In spite of organised anarchist violence being a hallmark of this era, it has always been contended that Czolgosz acted alone. Today’s guest, history professor John Koerner contests this narrative. In his book, The Secret Plot to Kill McKinley, Professor Koerner peels back the layers to reveal a wider anarchist, and perhaps ultimately Republican Party plot, to dispense with America’s 25th President.
Details of all Professor Koerner’s books and interviews can be found here:

A Question of Memory 1. False Memories
Recovered memories strongly influence various subcultures; from conspiracy theories, to a belief in past lives, right through to alien abductions. So are they reliable?
Psychologists claim they are not. They say the boundary between memory and fantasy is much more porous than we take it to be, and it is entirely possible to rebrand fantasy as memory, up to and including inventing entire chunks of our biographies.
Meanwhile, some psychotherapists believe they are regressing clients to childhood, where they can recover long repressed memories of abuse, and that doing so is an essential part of a healing process.
Do either of these possibilities sound even remotely plausible?

Cancer as Oxygen Deficiency, the work of Dr. Otto Warburg, with Dr. Anthony Marshall
A few months ago I attended a lecture by today’s guest, Dr. Anthony Marshall, on the work of another doctor, Otto Warburg. Dr. Warburg was an expert in respiratory conditions who developed a theory of cancer based around oxygen deficiency. I asked Dr. Marshall to come on the show and explain that, as well as the role it played in his work and his wider views on modern medicine.
As with everything medical I put on this channel, I’ll add the disclaimer that I’m not personally knowledgeable in this area, and my purpose is to provide interesting avenues of research, not treatment advice.

The Lunatic Fringe? 2. The Empire Goes to the Moon
Director of the UK National Space Centre, Anu Ojha, attributes claims the Lunar landings were hoaxed to a ‘seductive conspiratorial method of thinking’, which he asserts poses ‘a real threat to our democratic way of life’. Is he right, or should we be cynical when a vast imperial machine, high on violence and fueled by propaganda, claims to have sent men to the Moon and back?

The Energy of Empire 14. World War I - Prolonging the Agony?
Whatever effect the naval blockade ultimately had on the outcome of the war, it of course did not succeed in bringing it to a swift conclusion the way people believed and Churchill implied it might. Gerry Docherty and Jim McGregor contend this was because it was deliberately porous on the level of bureaucracy. They describe this as a conflict between the Admiralty, who wanted to institute an effective blockade, and the Foreign Office, who did not.

Arguing about Viruses with Alex Tsakiris (Skeptiko Podcast)
I was recently invited on Alex Tsakiris’ Skeptiko podcast, to explain why I’ve transitioned from assuming the idea ‘viruses don’t exist’ is some sort of lunatic fringe, to thinking it may well be true. Alex thinks this is crazy, Flat Earth science, probably a psychological operation run by the government. I attempt to use philosophy of science to assert why this paradigm should be firmly on the table.
The show is currently being discussed on the Skeptiko Forum:

The Lunatic Fringe? What Should We Think About Moon Landing Conspiracies?
It seems strange to me that throughout all human history, if anyone had told you man had been to the Moon, you’d have been a gullible fool to believe them. That position completely reverses on July 20th 1969, when all of a sudden you’d be a gullible fool not to believe them. Is it really that obvious we went to the Moon? How should we even approach the question?

The Energy of Empire 13. World War I - Perfidious Albion?
In contrast to the Boer War, where British actions are pretty hard to defend, in the First World War they look either virtuous, coming to the aid of neutral Belgium, or at worst defensive, acting to prevent a German dominated Europe. For a more critical take it seems we look outside of mainstream academia, to more independent historians. Perfidious Albion is the subject of Gerry Docherty and Jim Macgregor’s book: Hidden History, The Secret Origins of the First World War.

'Iatrocide': Death by Doctoring in HIV and COVID, with Dr. Kevin Corbett
Dr. Kevin Corbett qualified as a nurse in 1986 and worked on Britain's first purpose built AIDS unit. He went on to do doctoral research into patient’s experiences of HIV tests. This research led him to reject the paradigm that AIDS was caused by HIV, and to become cynical of the viral origins of disease in general. In this interview I ask Dr. Corbett about the parallels between the HIV and COVID eras, and in particular, what, if not a virus, caused all the excess mortality we’ve seen.

The Viral Delusion - with Michael Wallach
Michael Wallach is the creator of the seven hour documentary series, The Viral Delusion, which focuses on that most controversial and divisive of claims: that viruses either don’t exist, or aren’t responsible for the diseases we attribute to them.
Michael has been in the perhaps unique position of interviewing many of the leading thinkers in this area. In this interview I ask him about his own intellectual journey of coming to embrace such a seemingly radical position.
We also talk extensively about Michael’s time at the US State Department, where he once worked as a Middle East advisor. What he learnt there, about the nature of entrenched bureaucracies, coloured his future view of the medical industrial complex.
