Is it my imagination, or is there a very loud fart at 13:11?

I got a testing bill. My doctor recommended I get a test a couple months ago when I had severe respiratory symptoms. I got billed $75 for it. How is that not telling me to ignore it next time and keep going to work, not knowing if I have COVID?

Thanks for telling me about the ivermectin studies done by McMaster university. The first one I read said ivermectin shortened average sick time from 12 days to 10 days. So ivermectin users did 15% better in that category. The next one I read said 14/250 subjects with ivermectin required a ventilator while 21/251 who didn't get treated with the medicine had to be ventilated. Again, showing ivermectin is effective. Both studies warned not to take them seriously because of the low number of test subjects. Don't you people even read the studies you refer your listeners to?

That McMaster "Together Trial" that your doctor and mainstream news is talking about was designed to show the effectiveness of fluvoxamine on COVID and it had nothing to do with ivermectin. It showed that fluvoxamine is equally effective as ivermectin, only ivermectin only costs about five bucks for a months supply.

What is the deal with Covid? Vaccines? Masks? What works? What doesn't work? Who *are* the unvaccinated? What is vaccine apartheid? What's the deal with boosters?

Rapper and campaigner Lowkey (https://twitter.com/Lowkey0nline) talks about the Israel Lobby's campaign to get Spotify to remove him from their platform. Sign the petition telling Spotify not to cave here (https://www.change.org/p/spotify-do-not-buckle-to-pressure-from-the-israel-lobby-to-deplatform-lowkey?utm_source=share_petition&utm_medium=custom_url&recruited_by_id=0ccb39d0-b020-11ec-b015-6f843b977d7f). 

Lowkey is a British-Iraqi hip hop artist, academic and political campaigner. He is a patron of Stop The War Coalition, Palestine Solidarity Campaign, the Racial Justice Network and The Peace and Justice Project founded by Jeremy Corbyn. He has a Masters in Middle Eastern Studies from SOAS university and is an advisor to the website Declassified  which investigates the activities of the Ministry of Defence and British Intelligence Services.  He has spoken and performed on platforms from the Oxford Union to the Royal Albert Hall and Glastonbury. His latest album Soundtrack To The Struggle 2 featured Noam Chomsky, Frankie Boyle and Ken Loach and has been streamed millions of times. He produces and hosts his own weekly podcast for Mintpress and has interviewed US Congresswoman Ilhan Omar, Roger Waters, Naom Chomsky, Naomi Klein, Ahed Tamimi, Ken Loach and Stella Moris (wife of Julian Assange).

Lowkey has become the target of a coordinated smear campaign to demonize, defame and deplatform him. Earlier this month, organised groups forced the University of Cambridge Palestine Solidarity Society to postpone his lecture and were able to stop his appearance at the National Union of Students in Liverpool. 

Now, a campaign by lobby group "We Believe in Israel" is demanding that his content be removed from music streaming service Spotify. This is unacceptable censorship.

The campaign against Lowkey is designed to silence Palestinians and their supporters. Anti-Palestinian censorship is now reaching into the artistic realm.

INTERVIEW WITH BROADDRICK https://soundcloud.com/katie-halper/juanita-broaddrick-on-being-raped-by-bill-clinton-thrown-under-the-bus On this episode of The Katie Halper Show, Katie Halper and Gabe Pacheco talk to Katie Baker, who wrote the Buzzfeed profile on Juanita Broaddrick. In 1999, Broaddrick accused Bill Clinton of raping her in 1978 in her hotel room in Little Rock Arkansas. Not surprisingly, the mainstream-liberal feminist media responded with a deafening silence, which was shattered by Wonkette's Rebecca Schoenkopf. Schoenkopf, who is a Hillary Clinton supporter, was the only one not on the right wing to respond to the story and wound up issuing a bit of a rape apology. The same week that the Buzzfeed story came out, feminists were tweeting "believe women." But it wasn't in reference to Broaddrick. It was in reference to the women who had accused a New York comedian of raping them. Gabe talks about the rape controversy rocking the NYC comedy scene, Kurt Metzger and Amy Schumer.

"Trump was an excellent candidate for hate. Bernie was a good candidate for love. Hillary was...neither. So, love didn't even get into the finals."  - JUDAH FRIEDLANDER (more quotes below)

For this week's episode, we talk to comedians Arish Singh and Judah Friedlander about the causes and outcome of the 2016 Presidential election! We also speak to former Sanders campaign organizers Zack Exley & Becky Bond about their brand new book, Rules for Revolutionaries, what the Clinton campaign got wrong, and what we can get right.

"How can you blame people for not participating when politicians are promising more of the same system and call you naive if you want something more? I think the Democrats treated the base like they were takers. And that’s Paul Ryan’s line. It shouldn’t be the democrats." - BECKY BOND

"With Dems like these, who needs Paul Ryan?" - KATIE HALPER

Bonus chat with Julia on her political evolution https://www.patreon.com/posts/21319406
I talk to Julia Salazar, a DSA candidate running against Martin Dilan, the state senator in New York's 18th District. Salazar has been compared to Alexandria Ocasio-Cortéz for being a young, Latina, DSA member and first time candidate taking on the Democratic Machine. Julia talks to me about the difference between her and Dilan and addresses his bad record on housing and tenants rights, which the media almost entirely ignored until a Gothamist piece published this week which exposed that Dilan takes more money from the real estate industry than all but one Democratic state senator. And I talk to Ted Hamm about Letitia James, who is running for Attorney General of NY against friend-of-the-show and anti corruption crusader Zephyr Teachout. Hamm talks about  James' troubling support of former Brooklyn DA Charles J. Hynes
