In the quiet corridors where healing was once holy, something cold now slithers. In today's pod, two ER physicians step forward, voices steady, to reveal how the laws meant to protect truth have become tools of silence. Dr. Patricia Robitaille & Dr. Coleen Rickabaugh speak of hospitals that trade compassion for control, of doctors punished for refusing to look away. It’s a reckoning - part confession, part hymn - for a system that’s forgotten its soul. The two are now working in DC to rewrite the law that broke healthcare's back in the first place.

If we treat the universe as being filled with some kind of elastic solid, can we get any closer to understanding the nature of light and gravity as the product of physical processes, or is there still some deeper principle that needs to be uncovered before we can develop a unified theory of the universe? We dig into mass, light, electricity, and magnetism in context of the elastic Ether with Dr. Chantal Roth.

What if the key to solving the mysteries of modern physics lies not in new mathematics, but in a physical interpretation of the mathematics we already have?

This week, we begin a deep, two-part conversation with Dr. Chantal Roth about the Elastic Aether Theory—one of the first serious contenders we've found for a material interpretation of fundamental physics. Dr. Roth's quest for a deeper understanding of the universe begins by taking the mathematics of General Relativity, applying a set of material science axioms, and deriving what the mathematics of light and gravity tell us about the physical properties of the universe. Check out part 2, where we dive into the ether-based mechanisms for mass, light, charge, electricity, and gravity.

The Demystify Duo sits down for a conversation about the hidden variable that decides how successful someone’s ideas will be. Normally, you hear that intelligence, the “g-factor” that Richard Haier and other intelligence reasearchers point to, is the decisive factor for worldly success. And while that might be true in some purely quantitative sense that’s measured in terms of salary or stock options or whatever, that seems to not be the most important thing for being able to see the world accurately. We spend the conversation trying to define what that hidden variable is, and why it’s so important to cultivate, and how weird it is that no one seems to realize it’s there.

Dr. Emily Adlam is a philosopher of quantum physics who has just finished a book about the strangest feature of fundamental physics - the perennial confusion over what it means to make a measurement. We all know that quantum physics tells us that there’s this strange thing, called wavefunction collapse, which transitions a system from being in a quantum state into being in a classical state. But what does it mean to make a measurement? And what does it mean to turn a system from a quantum one into a classical one? It turns out that no one really knows, and we spend this conversation trying to figure out how that could be possible, after more than a century of theorizing about the foundations of reality.

Taylor Northcutt, the mind behind the Prosopa Youtube channel, dives into the forbidden science of physiognomy: the belief that the face is a map of the soul. From ancient mystics to modern algorithms, we trace how civilizations tried to read truth, sin, and destiny in bone and flesh. What if your features aren’t random? What if your face is the interface between body, mind, and fate?

Dr. Ivette Fuentes is a quantum physicist at the University of Southampton, where she studies the strange edge between quantum mechanics and relativity. We try to get on the same page about what it means to bend time, warp gravity, and what gives objects mass. We explore the philosophy of physics, the mystical cult of quantum woo, and how real science confronts the unsettling truth that reality might not exist the way we think it does.

In this episode James P. Dowling talks us through the unlikely friendship between physicist Wolfgang Pauli and psychologist Carl Jung. Their dialogue on quantum mechanics and archetypes pulled science and myth into the same room, forcing each to reckon with the other’s language. Out of their exchanges came visions of atoms haunted by the unconscious, and shadows that reached into equations. We follow their conversation to ask what happens when reason and dream try to share the same desk.

Geologist Lance Weaver steps back into the circle, carrying a wild heresy: that five centuries in the Egyptian record are ghosts, smoke, a trick of the scribes. Strip them away, he says, and the Bible and the Pharaohs suddenly stare eye to eye, like two old enemies who’ve just remembered they were brothers. We walk with him through the obscurely sourced Kolbrin Bible, through the rubble of forgotten empires, through the hush of timelines cracking open. What if the past is not what we’ve been told, but a fever dream waiting to be woken from?

Michael Levin is a synthetic biologist at Tufts University who believes that asking questions about “life” is a fruitless project. Instead, he argues that we ought to be trying to understand the emergence of cognition - a feature that he believes appears long before cells emerge. As part of this project, Levin has started to pull on a series of threads woven through the origin of life debate that seem to show basic elements of thinking systems - habituation, sensitization, conditioning - can be found in simple physical networks. We dig into how these systems work, what they reveal about life, and how his approach to understanding nature resolves a lot of biological paradoxes.

Max Fomitchev Zamilov is a nuclear physicist, inventor, and bubble fusion reactor builder who has also been a central figure in the characterization of the predynastic vases from ancient Egypt. We sit down with him for a conversation that can only happen with an experimental physicist - about overlooked electrical phenomena that diverge from theory, how all the reports of successful low energy nuclear fusion reactions fall apart under close scrutiny, and a wild theory about where these weird vases are coming from.

Michael Vassar is a futurist philosopher who believes that our civilization has lost the ability to think clearly, as the result of a silent project to destroy education that has been running in the background for generations. At the core of his argument is that the modern world has been shaped by elites interested in taking over the world. Interestingly, he seems to think that this multi-generational plan has backfired, and produced a society where there is a vanishingly small number of people even capable of formulating such grand ambitions, let alone possess the cognitive abilities to execute on their plans. We talk through his argument, and start to unpack some lore about the Rationalists, an online community that openly pursues the ideals of the enlightenment but can’t stop spawning cults for some reason.

Andre Koch Torres Assis is a professor of Physics at the University of Campinas in Brazil, who has been studying the history of electricity and electrodynamics for more than thirty years. As part of his research, he has assembled put together a collection of experiments that demonstrate some of the earliest experiences that natural philosophers had with electricity - and which show how poorly understood these phenomena still are today, more than two hundred years after they were first observed.

Howard Bloom is an author, scientist, and former music industry publicist, who argues that entropy has been disastrously misapplied as a universal law across physics, cosmology, biology, information theory, and culture. In this episode we explore how a concept that was initially formulated in context of steam engines was used to create a story of universe doomed from the start, and explore Bloom’s radical alternative: that the universe — from atoms to galaxies, evolution to economics, music to technology — is not destined for collapse, but driven toward order, complexity, creativity, and flamboyant progress.PATREON https://www.patreon.com/c/demystifysciPARADIGM DRIFThttps://demystifysci.com/paradigm-drift-showOUR HOMEBREWED MUSICCheck out our band's new album:https://secretaryofnature.bandcamp.com/album/everything-is-so-good-hereVinyl pre-orders available now: https://buy.stripe.com/14A5kC3Od5d21Ms7zPdEs0900:00 Go!

Michael Hughes is a biochemist, water researcher and friend of the podcast with a passion for philosophy, mythology, and esoteric traditions. In this conversation, we explore the historical tension between priesthood and prophecy, the way science has replaced religion as a cultural authority, and ask why no society has ever thrived without a shared mythos. The discussion touches on mythology as a guiding force, Rudolf Steiner’s spiritual dualism, the balance between materialism and mysticism, the promises and failures of technology, transhumanism, and AI. We also dive into the rise of UFOs and alien narratives as new messianic myths, the enduring metaphor of Atlantis, and the possibility of building a functional metaphysical framework for chaotic times.PATREON https://www.patreon.com/c/demystifysciPARADIGM DRIFThttps://demystifysci.com/paradigm-drift-showOUR HOMEBREWED MUSICCheck out our band's new album:https://secretaryofnature.bandcamp.com/album/everything-is-so-good-hereVinyl pre-orders available now: https://buy.stripe.com/14A5kC3Od5d21Ms7zPdEs0900:00 Go!

Danielle Sulikowski, professor of evolutionary psychology, presents a controversial theory on why global fertility rates and birth rates are collapsing.

She argues that an evolutionary strategy known as female mate suppression—where dominant women repress the reproductive success of rivals—has shifted in humans into a modern form of antinatal social contagion.

Rather than direct biological suppression, the strategy manifests as propaganda and cultural messaging that discourage motherhood, promote career over family, and accelerate population decline.

We explore how intrasexual competition among women could shape civilization itself, why some groups might defect against their own society to gain an evolutionary edge, and how this connects to broader debates in feminism, cultural evolution, and civilizational collapse.

The conversation also ties in the density-dependent dynamics of Calhoun’s Rat Utopia experiments as a possible parallel to modern urbanization, social media, and declining birth rates.PATREON https://www.patreon.com/c/demystifysciPARADIGM DRIFThttps://demystifysci.com/paradigm-drift-showOUR HOMEBREWED MUSICCheck out our band's new album:https://secretaryofnature.bandcamp.com/album/everything-is-so-good-hereVinyl pre-orders available now: https://buy.stripe.com/14A5kC3Od5d21Ms7zPdEs0900:00 Go!

What if telepathy isn’t fantasy, but an undiscovered frontier of biophysics? In this conversation, Helené Wahbeh of the Institute of Noetic Sciences joins us to explore how mind-to-mind communication could be studied through neuroscience, quantum theory, and consciousness research.

We’re not obsessed with whether it’s real — we’re asking how it would work if it were. A tightrope the edge of what's known, where psi phenomena meets mechanism and physics.

What if Flight MH370 wasn’t just lost, but simply became hidden from view? In this episode with controversial youtuber Ashton Forbes, we take the mystery seriously: not as magic, but as a challenge to what we think we know about plasma, quantum mechanics, and fusion. The question isn’t about belief, but about possibility: if teleportation happened, what physical mechanisms could explain it? We're at the edge of reason for this one, where mystery bashes up again rationality.PATREON https://www.patreon.com/c/demystifysciPARADIGM DRIFThttps://demystifysci.com/paradigm-drift-showOUR HOMEBREWED MUSICCheck out our band's new album:https://secretaryofnature.bandcamp.com/album/everything-is-so-good-hereVinyl pre-orders available now: https://buy.stripe.com/14A5kC3Od5d21Ms7zPdEs09Ashton's YT Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@UCHmFQzkpaJBSDD1PPFhPPSg 00:00 Go!
