In 2019, I interviewed Joel Salatin, advocate of alternate farming. Our conversation prompted me to predict for the decade 2020 - 2029 that laws would be overturned making local food production and distribution a rising economic force. I didn't know then that COVID was about to speed that process up 10X. Here's what's happened since then.

Dr. Michael Levin of Tufts University crosses many disciplines: computer science, embryo development, cancer and tumor research; limb regeneration; evolutionary theory and neural networks. If you watch some of Michael's fascinating talks at https://ase.tufts.edu/biology/labs/levin/research/presentations.htm he'll take you down his magical rabbit hole including worms that grow new heads when you cut them in half, tumors that heal themselves and eyes planted on tails that actually work. In this interview, Michael explodes the myth that "we've got it mostly figured out." The truth is closer to 1% understanding and 99% is Dark Matter.

Azra Raza treated cancer patients for 30 years, but not even the loss of her Oncologist husband could provoke her to write a book. It took the death of her daughter’s dearest 22 year old friend - when suddenly she realized she had to speak up. Here we discuss the one most important thing that The System overlooks - THE PATIENT’S ANGUISH - and speaks out about the state of cancer research in the 21st century. Groupthink, sexism, ignorance of history, and absence of empathy… and no one is in charge.
A quarter-trillion dollars later, we’re still carrying out the same punishing treatments we were doling out in the 1970s - where life extensions of six weeks are heralded as "breakthroughs." We discuss the “Cancer Cambrian” and the great black hole that is our grasp of cancer cellular evolution. Finally, witness Azra’s dream of a superior system for detecting and beating cancer.

Addy Pross is a Chemist at Ben Gurion University in Israel. He's author of "What is Life: How Chemistry Becomes Biology" by Oxford University Press. Here we enjoyed a great conversation about his specialty, Systems Chemistry, a new branch of science that enables us to build complex networks of chemical reactions like those found inside of cells. We explore the unanswered questions that continue to perplex scientists of all kinds.

Lynn Margulis, who died in 2012, was a piercing luminary in the history of evolutionary theory. She overturned the money changer's tables in the temple of science and infuriated a lot of people. But history has continued to vindicate her. In this interview, she and Conner explore a very different way of thinking about life itself and you’ll hear her brilliant mind and feisty posture.

Michael Behe infuriated traditional Darwinists with his concept of irreducible complexity more than 20 years ago. He argues instead for Intelligent Design. But what does ID really mean? Is it a puff of smoke? A perfectly executed pool shot at the start of the Big Bang? External intervention at various points along the way? Intrinsic cellular intelligence? Perry Marshall and Michael Behe discuss where to draw the dotted line.

Joel Salatin is a "Christian Libertarian Environmentalist Capitalist Lunatic" who is re-inventing the way food is grown, distributed and consumed. Here we examine how current legislation is based on 1906 technology, and the new culinary entrepreneurship that is expanding as we break the shackles of 19th century "Darwinian" agriculture. Discover Joel at https://www.thelunaticfarmer.com.

Michael Heiser, whose podcast “The Naked Bible” got five million downloads this year, studied Hebrew at the University of Wisconsin and was confronted with a dilemma: How do you reconcile common modern interpretations with the nuances of what the ancient texts actually say? His journey revealed an Unseen Realm that is very different from the assumptions modern people bring to these stories. We had a delightful conversation about implicit assumptions.
