#56: Can You Be Friends if You Don’t Share The Same Values or Beliefs?
Send us a textBack in our original fashion exchanging our uncensored opinions between just the two of us, we examine whether it is possible to maintain friendships with people who see the world through a different lens.We analyze when it is possible and even encouraged to maintain friendships with people who have opposing viewpoints versus when this feat proves to be a fruitless effort.We share personal anecdotes which illustrate when our differences with others have brought us closer together and when these fundamental differences have driven us farther apart, and if that means the end of the friendship for good.We philosophize about the impact topics like politics and medical freedom have over our friendships and whether it matters if your closest friends are virtual or in person.In an age of dogma and division, we emphasize the lost art of toeing the line of nuance.Join us for more of these dicussions on the inside of our virtual community, rebelliUS.

#55: The Bioethical and Medical Risks of Big Fertility: Surrogacy, IVF, and Sperm Donation with Jennifer Lahl
Send us a textToday’s guest, Jennifer Lahl, is the founder of The Center for Bioethics and Culture Network. Lahl couples her 25 years of experience as a pediatric critical care nurse, a hospital administrator, and a senior-level nursing manager with a deep passion to speak up for those who have no voice.Women are often sold on surrogacy, IVF, and sperm donation as either a beautiful way to help a family in need or the best solution to their fertility issues. The problems with the solutions Big Fertility pushes extend beyond a lack of informed consent; there are not only significant medical risks for moms and their future children (which are often downplayed or not mentioned at all) as well as bioethical concerns which many have never even considered until well after consenting to one of these reproduction methods.If we continue on this transhumanist trajectory, we can expect so see the normalization and encouragement of artificial eggs and wombs.On the bright side, the tides are turning. Countries are waking up to the harms of some of these practices and setting firm boundaries to protect women and children. Some countries, like America, unfortunately still operate like the Wild West and put the wellbeing of mothers and children last at the expense of the desires of intended parents. Thanks to spreading awareness, women are realizing they have other, more biologically-supportive and ethical options when it comes to starting a family.Jennifer's Books + Films: The Detransitioner DiariesEggsploitationBig Fertility Related Whose Body Is It Masterclasses:The Medical and Legal Ethics of IVF, Surrogacy, and Other Commonly Used Assisted Reproductive TechnologyThe Great Reset of Motherhood: Gender Identity, Transhumanist Tech & the Theft of Birth Come hang with us and other likeminded parents and soon-to-be-parents within our private membership rebelliUS, where you will gain access to the most sought-after vaccine and holistic health resources, exclusive expert-led vaccine webinars, and a thriving community of uncensored and comprehensive conversations amongst in-demand taboo topics.Support the showJOIN OUR NEW, PRIVATE COMMUNITY!

#54: What The “Experts” Won’t Tell You About Vaccines and Natural Immunity with Toxicologist Ashley Everly
Send us a textMom of two (including one who experienced a vaccine injury), toxicologist, and creator of the *must read*, comprehensive Vaccine Guide drops some jaw-dropping bombshells that will make you think twice about the safety, efficacy, ethics, and necessity of these routine shots.We talk about the tragic human sacrifices who were callously exploited for the sake of growing viruses in aborted fetal cells. The ingredients in vaccines will make your stomach churn— and no, we’re not just talking about the well-known and widely discussed neurotoxic aluminum.We also discuss the superiority of natural immunity verses artificial immunity via vaccination and the longterm benefit of allowing our bodies to encounter sickness in the wild without synthetic interference. Specifically, we learn about which cancers you are at a lesser risk of having as a result of acquiring natural immunity from certain "vaccine preventable" illnesses.You’ll hear us talk about the role breastmilk antibodies play from the start of life as well as the importance of honoring the divine order of growth from a spiritual standpoint.Despite the benefits we acknowledge that homeopathy provides, we talk about why we are against homeoprophylaxis as a “safer” alternative to vaccines. We also learn why vitamin D supplementation is not only pointless but also to some degree harmful.This conversation is sure to make your head spin in the best way!Follow Ashley on instagram @insta_ashleyeverlyAshley's websiteAccess Ashley's free vaccine guideSupport the showJOIN OUR NEW, PRIVATE COMMUNITY!

#53: No Child Is Born In The Wrong Body with Pamela Garfield-Jaeger, LCSW
Send us a textPamela “came out” as “the truthful therapist” a few years ago on the basis of her simply speaking the truth. Not HER truth, but rather the truth. This of course offended many (unsurprisingly); however, through her commitment to bust myths propagated by the transhumanist agenda which preys upon our vulnerable and impressionable youth, she has successfully forged her own path as a trailblazer for other therapists who are not woke and equally committed to helping children accept the body they were born into rather than affirming a lie.

#52: Infant Formula is Literally Killing Babies in Nigeria with Mandolyn Crotts of Carry Them Ministries
Send us a textMandolyn Crotts, mom of two and founder of Carry Them Ministries in Nigeria, revealed the horrifying, fatal obstetric practices, fear of breastfeeding and dangerous promotion of infant formula which is responsible for the demise of so many babies.Here in America we often hear trite slogan such as “fed as best!” to make women feel better about formula usage. However in a place like Nigeria, formula feeding is actually killing babies, and breastfeeding saves lives.We learn about the heartbreaking lies women have been told from fearful and misogynistic doctors and nurses who know nothing about birth or breastfeeding. Separation of motherbaby from day 1 is not only common, but it’s extremely normal. Even skin-to-skin is viewed as dangerous.There is a light at the end of this dark tunnel, and that is the success stories of babies who transformed from “failure to thrive” as a result of risky formula consumption, to full on thriving thanks to Mandolyn and team’s lactation support which includes some unconventional methods often overlooked here in the Western world.And of course we couldn’t ignore the current culture wars, especially in light of La Leche League’s woke inclusion policies. Hear what Mandolyn has to say about “inclusive” breastfeeding vernacular in a place like Nigeria where babies are literally on the brink of death.If you are feeling inspired by Mandolyn’s mission, please consider making a financial donation at carrythem.org.Follow Mandolyn’s non-profit @carrythemministries on InstagramSupport the showJOIN OUR NEW, PRIVATE COMMUNITY!
