He also talks about lawsuits involving Meta and biometric data, his broader legal battles with past administrations, and why he thinks the next wave of conflict is over control of information.

Oliver Niehaus: ?If Due Process Goes Away, Anyone Can Be Deported? | DSH #1822

In this conversation from AmFest, political debater Oliver Niehaus breaks down why feminism still matters today, how online media ecosystems shape political beliefs, and why discussions around violence, gun control, and free speech have become so polarized.

The conversation also explores political violence, gun policy, poverty, and the deeper root causes behind crime ? moving beyond surface-level talking points. We close with a sharp analysis of Donald Trump?s second term, including tariffs, immigration, free speech concerns, and why anti-establishment messaging continues to resonate with voters.

Jake Rattlesnake;. Why Free Speech Feels Impossible Outside the U.S. | DSH #1818

Jake from Rattlesnake TV joins the show for a wide-ranging, uncensored conversation on immigration, culture, free speech, religion, and the future of the West. Coming from Australia, Jake explains why he believes the United States still offers something rare: open debate, strong faith communities, and the ability to speak freely without immediate government or social retaliation. The discussion spans Europe?s immigration challenges, differences between American and Australian culture, Christianity vs secular worldviews, and why debates ? not censorship ? matter more than ever. The conversation then shifts into deeper philosophical territory, exploring free will, morality, faith, consciousness, and whether modern society has lost its spiritual foundation. Regardless of where you stand, this episode challenges listeners to think critically, question assumptions, and engage with opposing ideas rather than shutting them down.

Former NFL linebacker Brandon Marshall sits down in Las Vegas to break down what most fans never see behind the curtain of professional football ? how political the NFL really is, how slim the odds are of making it, and why being ?almost as good? isn?t good enough. Brandon opens up about getting cut multiple times, fighting through practice squads, earning respect from Peyton Manning, and finally getting his shot in Week 17 ? right before the playoffs. Beyond football, he shares hard-earned lessons from transitioning out of the league and betting on himself as a first-time restaurant owner of Hattie Marie?s, including costly mistakes, razor-thin margins, rising food costs, and why managing people is harder than playing in the NFL.

Tony Orlando: Why Healthy People in Their 30s Are Losing Bone Density (DEXA Explained) | DSH #1814

At A4M, we sit down with Tony Orlando from Dexa Plus to break down why DEXA scans are becoming one of the most important tools in modern health, weight loss, and longevity. Bone density loss is no longer just a problem for seniors?we?re now seeing serious issues in people in their 30s and 40s, including men who appear lean and healthy on the outside. Tony explains how DEXA scans reveal what scales and mirrors can?t: visceral fat, muscle loss, and early bone density decline, and why relying on BMI or at-home body fat devices alone can be misleading. We also discuss how often you should scan, how hydration skews results, and why DEXA should be the gold standard for tracking real progress?especially if you?re using peptides, hormones, or structured training programs. If your goal is long-term performance, disease prevention, and true body awareness, this conversation is a must-watch. What You?ll Learn ? ? Why bone density loss is showing up decades earlier than expected ? How visceral fat increases heart disease and diabetes risk?even in lean people ? Why the scale and BMI fail as health metrics ?? How often you should get a DEXA scan (and why 90 days matters) ? How DEXA helps dial in training, nutrition, hormones, and peptides ??

Bone density problems are showing up earlier than you think 0:27 ? Meet Tony Orlando of Dexa Plus at A4M 0:38 ? What a DEXA scan actually measures (bone, muscle, fat) 0:56 ?

In this raw, honest conversation, we sit down with Thomas Wilkinson from NeuroNova to unpack the hidden dangers of benzodiazepines, Adderall, and dopamine-depleting addiction cycles?and explore a radically different approach to mental health. After personal experiences with Xanax withdrawal, seizures, and years of anxiety, the conversation shifts to a non-invasive technology originally developed to help people recover from addiction without replacing one dependency with another. Thomas explains how a specific spinal vibration frequency discovered through neuroscience research showed dramatic results in human trials, including major reductions in anxiety, improved sleep, and support during opiate withdrawal?all without drugs.

Ulrich from Carol Bike Explains the 5-Minute Cardio Protocol That Adds Years | DSH #1807

At A4M Longevity Fest, we sit down with Ulrich Dempfle from Carol Bike to break down the fastest way to improve cardio fitness ? without spending hours doing endurance workouts. If you?ve ever said ?I don?t have time for cardio,? this is for you. Carol Bike is built around REHIT (Reduced Exertion High-Intensity Interval Training): a science-backed protocol where you only do two all-out 20-second sprints, 2?3x per week, and still see major improvements in VO2 max, metabolic health, and longevity. We also compare Carol Bike vs Peloton, explain why intensity matters, how the bike auto-optimizes resistance, and why improving VO2 max may be one of the strongest predictors of long-term health. What You?ll Learn ???? Why VO2 max is one of the strongest markers tied to longevity ?? How 2 x 20-second sprints can replace long cardio sessions ? What REHIT is and why studies show rapid results ? Why doing more intervals might not mean more benefits ? How Carol reduces ?mental load? with automatic resistance + coaching ? How to track progress and test VO2 max inside the bike ? Why having it at home makes consistency almost effortless Chapters 0:00 ? VO2 max gains = years of healthier life 0:33 ? Carol Bike vs Peloton (biggest difference) 1:40 ? What REHIT is: minimum effective dose cardio 2:10 ? Why VO2 max matters more than most people realize 3:22 ? The workout: 5 minutes, 2 x 20-second sprints 4:31 ?

Karys Rhea: Are We Watching Conservatism Split in Real Time? | DSH #1795

In this AMFEST episode, Sean sits down with Karys Rhea to unpack the growing fractures inside the conservative movement?what she calls a rising wave of identitarianism, sectarianism, and ?edge-lord politics? built for clicks. Karys breaks down why the MAGA ?big tent? created an opening for extremists to chase virality, how gatekeeping is different than cancel culture, and why keeping hateful ideology on the fringes isn?t censorship?it?s protecting the movement?s foundation. They also dig into the post-Trump future of the GOP, the fight over who ?inherits?

Seth Gruber: The Science Behind Why Indulgence Destroys Societies | DSH #1792

What happens when a culture chases pleasure without responsibility? In this episode, Seth Gruber breaks down why unchecked indulgence doesn?t lead to freedom ? it leads to control.

Caitlin Sinclair: Botox Isn?t the Problem? Pressure Is | DSH #1779

A lot of people think ?wellness? is just cold plunges and clean food. But Caitlin Sinclair makes a bigger point: The real revolution is women reclaiming agency ? over their bodies, their hormones, their mental health, and even the pressure to ?fix? themselves for the internet. In this episode, Caitlin breaks down why the MAHA / wellness movement is exploding (especially with young people), why women are finally questioning the medical system, and how chronic issues like autoimmune disease, infertility, anxiety, and inflammation became normal. Then we go somewhere most podcasts won?t: beauty pressure. Botox, filler, BBL culture, filters, ?looking perfect on camera?? and the line between doing something for yourself vs doing it because society is pushing you. ? What You?ll Learn From This Episode ? Why health became cultural status (not just a personal goal) ? What women are questioning now: hormones, birth control, inflammation ?? Why blind trust in institutions can be dangerous ?

Why women?s wellness isn?t one-size-fits-all (fasting, cold plunge, cycle syncing) ? What chronic illness does to identity, confidence, and trust ? The difference between beauty choices vs beauty pressure ? How living online reshapes self-image for young girls ? How to make health changes without spiraling into overwhelm Chapters (Timestamps) 00:00 ? Botox pressure vs doing it for YOU 00:35 ?

Andrew and Noleen Sendra: Australia?s Culture Clash Is Getting Real | DSH #1781

This is one of the most intense interviews we?ve recorded. At AmFest, we sat down with Andrew and Noleen ? visitors from Australia with firsthand experiences living around religious conflict and escalating social tension. The conversation moves fast: immigration, free speech, religious extremism, rising antisemitism, and how fear spreads after high-profile incidents. You?ll hear arguments many people will strongly disagree with ? and that?s exactly why this matters. This episode is about exposure and examination, not endorsement. Watch with a critical mind. Then tell us in the comments: Where do you draw the line between free speech and incitement? What you?ll learn ? ? ? How ?fear moments? reshape a country?s politics overnight ? ?? Why free speech debates explode after major incidents ? ? How immigration + cultural conflict becomes a flashpoint ? ? How ideology spreads through institutions, laws, and media ? ??

Leela Quantum Tech: Wi-Fi, 5G, and Your Brain: The Science No One Talks About | DSH #1777

hat if the future of health isn?t another supplement? but frequency? In this episode, we sit down with Leela Quantum Tech founder Philip to explore one of the most controversial and fascinating frontiers in modern wellness: quantum energy, biofields, and frequency-based health technology. Philip explains how the human body isn?t just physical matter ? it?s energy and frequency ? and what happens when that energy is disrupted by Wi-Fi, 5G, Bluetooth, blue light, and modern tech exposure. We break down real studies showing changes in blood, brain waves, stress levels, cellular energy (ATP), and even animal health. From EMF mitigation and brain fog to fertility, anxiety, recovery, and pet health, this conversation dives deep into science-backed (and sometimes mind-bending) research ? including placebo-controlled studies, EEG brain scans, and real-world results. We also explore: ? How quantum fields can influence biology ? Why Wi-Fi and 5G affect blood and brain activity ? Distance healing via quantum entanglement ? Dog anxiety, lifespan decline, and animal frequency therapy ? Why the future of medicine may be frequency-based This is not about belief. It?s about measurable data, studies, and what?s possible when we stop treating the body like a machine ? and start treating it like an energetic system. Chapters 00:00 ? Why physical health isn?t enough 00:52 ? What a quantum energy generator actually is 01:45 ? Tesla, Einstein, and frequency medicine 03:35 ? How Wi-Fi and 5G affect blood & immunity 06:56 ?

Jason Shurka: You?re Living Longer? But You?re Not Healthier | DSH #1778

Jason Sha joins the show to discuss a controversial idea: we?re extending life expectancy, but not improving healthspan. He explains the difference between lifespan vs life expectancy, why many people feel worse despite living longer, and how he believes the modern system incentivizes symptom management over root-cause healing. We also talk about the Light System (a full-spectrum coherent light therapy environment). Jason shares the research he?s seen, why he supports it, and why he believes it can help people feel more balanced ? physically and mentally ? including stories involving animals where placebo is less likely to apply. Chapters (Timestamps) 00:00 ? Lifespan vs life expectancy (why it matters) 01:02 ? What the ?Light System? actually is 01:32 ? The research: cell conductivity + mitochondria 02:47 ?

Shahriq Khan: The Christian Debate Strategy That Actually Reaches Muslims | DSH #1776

In this powerful conversation at AmFest, a former devout Muslim shares the intellectual, spiritual, and deeply personal journey that led him to Christianity ? and why most Christian debates with Muslims fail entirely. Rather than attacking Islam politically or emotionally, he explains why effective engagement requires understanding Islamic theology from the inside, especially the role of the Torah, repentance, prophecy, and why verses like John 3:16 sound blasphemous to Muslims instead of persuasive. He breaks down what he calls the ?real five pillars of Islam,? explains why using the New Testament alone is a losing strategy, and outlines a radically different, Scripture-based approach that has helped grow his evangelism ministry to 100+ countries, 100M+ views, and hundreds of thousands of followers in months.

How Islamic theology actually works ? Why most Christian arguments miss the foundation ? The central role of the Torah in Christianity and Islam ? Why New Testament debates usually fail ??

Dr Ben Javid- Root Canals: The Debate Your Dentist Won?t Have With You| DSH #1775

Most people treat dentistry like it?s separate from health. This episode flips that. Dr. Ben Javid from Smile Body breaks down what biological dentistry actually means ? looking at the mouth as part of the whole body, reducing ?toxic load,? and why chronic issues like inflammation, brain fog, and autoimmune symptoms can sometimes trace back to what?s happening in your teeth and gums. We also talk about the foods that wreck oral health (and why Dr. Ben believes seed oils are a major driver), how ozone is used in biological dentistry, the controversy around root canals, and why he says you should ask questions, challenge your doctors, and research everything ? because no one is coming to save your health for you. Plus: why dental insurance feels like a scam, why his clinic operates more like a collaborative health facility, and how sedation dentistry can make treatment way more manageable. What You?ll Learn ? What ?biological dentistry? means (functional medicine for your mouth) ? Why oral health can impact energy, inflammation, and chronic issues ?? What Dr. Ben means by ?toxic load? (materials + infections) ? Which foods he says drive poor dental + systemic health ?? How ozone is used to reduce bad bacteria in dental care ? Why the oral microbiome matters more than people think ? Why mercury fillings are controversial ? and why removal matters ? What to do if you have root canals (check first, don?t panic) ? Why dental insurance often doesn?t help (and alternatives) ? How sedation dentistry can make treatment easier Chapters (Timestamps) 00:00 ? Ask questions: no one is coming to save you 00:45 ?
