  • Pretty awesome even though I disagree with some

    Love love love this show and the way Roger passionately teaches about critical thinking, informed decision making, and questioning the systems we’ve been conditioned by. I can appreciate his perspectives even though I often disagree. Gender and COVID are some of those topics. He says he doesn’t believe in black and white thinking but then will go on to say that some things are objectively right or wrong. Sometimes he loses the complexity of personal decisions and calls them “collective psychosis... more

    It’s sad because McFillin starts with a nugget of truth and levies valid criticisms of psychiatry. And then he takes it waaaaaaaay too far. Rog- have you considered getting some therapy? If so, ask about projection.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

237. The Man Behind Joe Camel Reveals How Propaganda Actually Works
Q: What moment sparked Anthony Freda's moral awakening about the industry?
The realization that the cigarette campaign targeting kids was illegal and immoral, followed by leaving mainstream media to work with independent and anti-war voices, marked a turning point.
237. The Man Behind Joe Camel Reveals How Propaganda Actually Works
Q: How does the model of the human being in advertising work today, given Bernays' ideas?
The guest explains that advertisers tie products to deeper human needs—status, belonging, power—by leveraging authority, repetition, and symbols, effectively shaping choices without overt coercion.
235. Is Ibogaine a Miracle Treatment for PTSD and Addiction?
Q: I'm curious to know what is the mechanism of action there? What is happening physiologically to provide that type of result?
Ibogaine acts on multiple neural systems, including opioid receptors, serotonin, dopamine transport, NMDA antagonism, and possibly promoting neuroplasticity; it appears to reset opioid tolerance and reduce withdrawal, with additional metabolic effects that may support long-term recovery.
221. A Yale MD on Angels, Telepathy & the Spiritual Root of the Mental Health Epidemic
Q: What advice do you have for clinicians who encounter patients with spiritual experiences that resemble psychosis but may be meaningful to them?
Clinicians should ground care in safety and foundation in biology while validating the patient's experiential reality, consider referrals for integrative approaches, and explore how to align spiritual experiences with evidence-based treatments, using monitoring and grounding techniques to avoid mislabeling and to support healing.
221. A Yale MD on Angels, Telepathy & the Spiritual Root of the Mental Health Epidemic
Q: You mentioned telepathy and other non-material experiences; how do you think these ideas fit within a scientific framework?
There is a growing body of clinical and translational work exploring how spiritual experiences and altered states relate to brain function, with potential for integration into treatment when safety and rigorous research are upheld. The key is to study these phenomena with the same scientific rigor as any other therapeutic modality while remaining open to modalities beyond traditional biomedical models.
