Andrei Martyanov - War In Ukraine:  Geopolitical and Economic Fallout, #442

Ed Curtin discusses the precarious global geopolitical situation teetering on World War 3 and how in the current Cuban Missile Crisis Redux we do not have a global leadership that can use reason to solve the problem. The most dangerous thing is the insouciance of most people to what is going on, the populace is focused on trivial pursuits, and has been tranquilized. He wouldn't be surprised if we wake up one day soon and we see news that nukes have gone off. Putin is doing what any sane leader would do, defending his country from surrounding NATO forces. It's quite obvious that the U.S. is the leading rogue nation in the world. A multipolar world is slowly coming into view.

About Edward Curtin
Educated in the classics, philosophy, literature, theology, and sociology, I teach sociology at Massachusetts College of Liberal Arts. My writing on varied topics has appeared widely over many years. I write as a public intellectual for the general public, not as a specialist for a narrow readership. I believe a non-committal sociology is an impossibility and therefore see all my work as an effort to enhance human freedom through understanding.

Ed Curtin: The Most Dangerous Thing is the Insouciance of People as to What is Going On #326

On this very special broadcast, we are bringing you some highlights of the National Citizens Inquiry: Canada’s Response to COVID-19.  The hearings have so far been conducted in six cities with two more coming by the middle of this month. I should also point out in the interests of full transparency that I myself engaged in presenting a viewpoint to the Inquiry when it was in Winnipeg one month ago, in spite of some condemnation by notable individuals and virtually no coverage by mainstream press. 
I should also alert you that some listeners may find messaging against the common beliefs about COVID treatment across the board to be extremely troubling. I urge listeners to express discretion before proceeding further with the broadcast.  
Speakers include Emergency physician Dr Charles Hoffe, Former mainstream media representative Rodney Palmer, Saskatoon resident Marjaleena Repo, and Trucker Dan Hartman. Also an interview with NCI spokesperson Michelle Leduc Catlin.

National Citizens Inquiry: Canada's Response to COVID-19

This week on the global Research News Hour we continue our journey into the latest adventures into the new artificial intelligence research that is taking the world by storm and firing up the imaginations of politicians, military individuals and corporate leaders alike and see how far that takes us down the techno-autocratic hole. In our first half hour, we will hear from writer Karsten Riise about how AI has finally put the US ahead of China and Russia as a true game changer, and how its enormous impacts will soon shape a new geopolitical frontier. And in our second half hour, we are joined again by geopolitical analyst Peter Koenig who investigates the trajectory the human species is on that leads us to dark and tragic endings beyond COVID and into the Great Reset.
