Many people sense that something is profoundly wrong with the world they are living in. They feel it before they have words for it: that every system around them, medical, political, financial, the media itself, was built to keep them distracted while the cage went up. They watch the news and feel powerless. They seek help and leave feeling worse. They follow the rules and find that the rules were written by people who never intended to follow them.The powerful are counting on us to stay asleep, divided, afraid, and disconnected from our divine nature. We are your alarm clock, and it's time to wake up. Radically Genuine is becoming the voice of the awakening, speaking to you and for you, if you have remembered who you are.

Which means you are not here by accident, and you are not here to comply. Wisdom has been hidden from us.

- 254 - The War on the Amish/ Tracy Thurman on Viva Frei's Show
Tracy Thurman joins Viva Frei to break down Pennsylvania's war on the Amish. The listeria death she says never happened. The raid on Amos Miller's dairy. USDA agents telling Miller to do the one thing his own agreement forbade. The 502-page Pennsylvania rule that would let health officials into a schoolhouse without a warrant and question children without their parents present. And why the Amish — a people whose faith won't let them sue the state — keep getting picked. Tracy co-hosts Radically Genuine with Dr. Roger McFillin starting October 1st. radicallygenuine.com
Thu, 17 Sep 2026 - 253 - Are We Being Influenced By Something Unseen?
What if the feeling that rolled in this morning didn't start inside you at all? Dr. Roger McFillin describes a week of unexplained dread and asks whether the three explanations modern psychology and material science offer — the event, the mind, the brain/body — are built on a paradigm that's simply incomplete. Can we pick up on the energy of others and events outside us? To what degree has energy weapons and technology been developed? A provocative episode that explores questions many are afraid to ask.

Thirteen psychiatric drugs. Seven prescribers. Four months. Three dead children. Everyone knows what Lindsay Clancy did. Almost nobody knows what was done to her first. Her husband told them the drugs were making her worse. A hospital team wrote it in her chart. She said it herself, over and over, in her own words, in writing. There is a note in that record explaining why nobody listened. One phrase. It is the reason this keeps happening, and once you hear it you will not be able to unhear it. Dr. Roger McFillin lays out the timeline and the question nobody is asking in that court room.
Thu, 13 Aug 2026 - 249 - 241. The Porn Addict Who Became a Monk
Why does a man with everything going right for him quietly fall apart on the inside? Jeremy Lipkowitz was a PhD student at Duke studying the genetic code that supposedly explains what a human being is. On the outside it looked like a life going exactly to plan. In private he was losing to a compulsion nobody around him knew about, and the more he achieved the worse it got. Eventually he stopped trying to fix himself from the outside, left the program, flew to Myanmar, and ordained as a monk.
He has spent the last decade teaching men to do what he did, without religion, dogma, or drugs. His show is Unhookedand his work is at https://unhookedacademy.com/
We talk about where shame actually comes from, what happens to you around day four of a silent retreat, and whether moderation is possible with anything engineered to hook you. Late in the episode we get into whether there is anything behind all of this. He says no. I made my case anyway. Neither of us moved, and that exchange might be my favorite part of the conversation.

Matt Walsh, the conservative commentator from the Daily Wire, set the internet on fire this week with a thread about therapy. The people defending him and the people attacking him are making the same mistake. Dr. McFillin's honest verdict on what's true, what's reckless, and the questions nobody thought to ask. Nobody is going to like all of it.
Thu, 30 Jul 2026 - 247 - 166. Children Who Read Minds: The Research Dr. Diane Hennacy Powell Risked Her Career to Expose
Neuroscientist and Psychiatrist Dr. Diane Hennacy Powell, author of "The ESP Enigma: The Scientific Case for Psychic Phenomena," is a pioneering researcher challenging our fundamental understanding of human consciousness. Her groundbreaking work, documented in "The Telepathy Tapes" series, presents rigorous scientific evidence of telepathic abilities in non-speaking autistic children - abilities that defy modern neuroscience and psychiatry. In this transformative episode, Dr. Powell reveals her controlled studies and the remarkable case of Haley, a non-speaking autistic who demonstrated extraordinary telepathic capabilities. Her research suggests consciousness isn't generated by the brain but channeled through it, challenging everything we know about mental health, human potential, and the nature of consciousness itself. This work points to a radical reimagining of autism not as a disorder, but as an evolved state of consciousness our materialist paradigm fails to comprehend.
Thu, 23 Jul 2026 - 246 - 239. Failure Is the Business Model: How the Mental Health Industry Profits When You Get Worse
In 2008, bankers made reckless bets with your money, burned the economy to the ground, and kept their bonuses while you paid the bill. Economists call it moral hazard: when the person making the decision never suffers the consequences of being wrong, they get careless. They get greedy. And they stop caring whether what they're selling you actually works.
We swore never again. We were lied to. Right now, there's an industry embedded in your doctor's office, your child's school, and your own family that runs the exact same scam — except the losses aren't measured in foreclosures. They're measured in your kids. It knows things about its product it will never tell you. It gets paid whether you improve or deteriorate. And when it fails you, that failure doesn't trigger accountability. It generates the next invoice. You've probably already been a customer. You may be one right now.
Dr. Roger McFillin builds the case one brick at a time — and by the end, you'll understand why the worst outcomes in American life keep getting rewarded with more money, more power, and more access to your children.Once you see it, you can't unsee it.
Thu, 16 Jul 2026 - 245 - 238. Is Everything a Psychiatric Disorder Now?
What did a new client say that nearly knocked Dr. Roger McFillin out of his chair? Why has honesty become the rarest thing in American life? And what if the label you were handed was never true? Be honest. You've watched it happen. Every flaw becomes a condition. Every choice becomes a symptom. Every struggle becomes a disorder. An entire culture has quietly agreed to stop telling the truth about itself.
This episode breaks the agreement.
Thu, 09 Jul 2026 - 244 - 237. The Man Behind Joe Camel Reveals How Propaganda Actually Works
Anthony Freda drew one of the most recognizable cartoon characters in advertising history — and illustrated the op-ed pages that helped sell a war. He was paid extraordinarily well to move product, opinion, and entire populations. Then he walked away.
In this episode, Dr. Roger McFillin sits down with the illustrator-turned-whistleblower to trace the hidden machinery of persuasion — from Edward Bernays and the "engineering of consent" to the four simple tools used to manufacture belief, sell wars, and convince a nation that its own sickness was health. But this conversation doesn't stop at media criticism. What begins as an insider's confession becomes something far stranger: a story about fear as a weapon, technology as a delivery system, and a spiritual war most people never realize they're inside.
Thu, 02 Jul 2026 - 243 - 236. Raw Milk and a Deal with God
At 20, Tracy Thurman was told she'd never work again. Disabled, written off, handed a lifetime sentence by the same system that put her there. The doctors had a word for what happened to her: bad luck.They were wrong. And what finally brought her back was something the government will send armed agents to seize. This isn't a conversation for people who are comfortable. It's for the ones who already feel that something is off — that the sickness around us isn't an accident, and the people selling the cure keep ending up in court.
And stay to the end. Because what starts as one woman's story becomes something bigger: the reveal of where this show is going next, and who's coming with it.
Thu, 25 Jun 2026 - 242 - 235. Is Ibogaine a Miracle Treatment for PTSD and Addiction?
Jonathan Dickinson sat on the floor of a temple in Gabon, initiated into the Bwiti tradition. He built the only ethical supply line out of that forest when no one else would. He co-authored the safety guidelines the entire field depends on, was part of the landmark Stanford research, and runs one of the world's leading ibogaine clinics through Ambio Life Sciences. This year he poured fifteen years of it into a new book.
Psychedelics have moved from the counterculture to the President's desk, and our most elite warfighters are quietly leaving the country to get a treatment America still calls a crime. At the center of it is a root the people of Gabon have called a teacher for thousands of years.
Jonathan walks us through what ibogaine appears to do for trauma, addiction, and brain injury, where the science is astonishing, and where the honest answer is still that we don't know. He describes a door this medicine opens in the mind, one he says the modern world has trained us to keep shut.

What if the scariest thoughts in your head mean nothing at all? William Schultz spent ten years trapped inside obsessive compulsive disorder. It got so bad he became afraid of his own shadow, checking it every time he flipped a light switch. Then he made one brave decision that put him in remission within two months. No drugs. No endless analysis. Today he's a psychotherapist in St. Paul, president of OCD Twin Cities, and the expert who pushed the International OCD Foundation to revise its own treatment guidelines in 2025.
In this conversation, Dr. Roger McFillin and William expose why standard mental health care makes OCD worse. They reveal what actually frees people in an in depth conversation. If you've ever been attacked by a thought you couldn't turn off, this episode is your way out.
Thu, 11 Jun 2026 - 240 - 233. An Emergency Room Physician on Demons, Awakening, and the Science We Ignore
What kind of man gets studied at Yale, Brown, and Harvard, builds a 300 person international research consortium, and still has powerful people working to erase his name? Dr. Daniel Ingram is not a guru. He is a retired level one trauma emergency physician. A published neuroscience researcher. The author of a book that has shaped contemplative practice for tens of thousands of readers. The acting organizer of a global research effort spanning Harvard, Yale, Brown, Cambridge, and Oxford. By every credential medicine respects, he is one of their own.
So why did a senior figure allegedly commission an academic article engineered to surface at the top of every search of his name, with one stated goal? That nobody would ever believe him again. Because Dr. Ingram crossed a line his profession does not permit. He claimed that awakening is real. That it is measurable. That it is observable in the brain. We go into what he has seen at the edges of human perception. What he documented in the lab. What he believes medicine is doing to patients every single day by refusing to look.
The Emergent Phenomenology Research ConsortiumThu, 04 Jun 2026 - 239 - 232. Fear Is The Product And You Are The Resource
Three books. Thirty years. One declassified CIA document.
You've been awake for five years. Why does everything keep getting worse?
In this episode, Dr. McFillin traces Robert Monroe's consciousness research, the U.S. military's 17-year remote viewing program, and the concept that explains why the "awake" community keeps losing: Loosh—an energetic harvest engineered to run on loneliness, fear, outrage, and resistance itself. The Krebs cycle. The dairy farm. We're not citizens. We're livestock.
The way out is not resistance. It's a frequency the harvest cannot consume.
Perfect love casts out fear.
Thu, 28 May 2026 - 238 - 231. The War for Human Consciousness Is Happening, and We’re Living in It
The war for human consciousness is not coming. It is already here, and you are living inside it.
A classified 1983 report written for the CIA. A missing page they still refuse to release. A truth about your mind, your body, and your power so dangerous it was buried for twenty years and is still being hidden from you today.
In this episode of the Radically Genuine Podcast, Dr. Roger McFillin pulls the thread on the hidden war being waged for your mind, your health, and your sovereignty. What he uncovers will change the way you see your diagnosis, your doctor, your phone, and yourself.
You are not who they told you you were. You are not what they trained you to believe.
Press play.
Thu, 21 May 2026 - 237 - 230. How They Convinced a Generation That Being Human Is a Disease
In 1976, Merck's CEO told Fortune magazine his dream was to make drugs for healthy people and sell them to everyone. Fifty years later, that dream is the air we breathe.
In this solo episode, Dr. Roger McFillin traces how a generation was taught that being human is a disease. He walks through the 1994 inflection point, the Zoloft commercial that rewrote a culture, the academics and journals and sales reps who built the influence machine, and the school-to-pediatrician-to-customer-for-life pipeline that captured childhood itself.
He reflects on the recent HHS mental health summit, what it gets right, and what the bureaucrats are still unwilling to say out loud. He names what was lost in the trade. The wisdom passed down through generations. The understanding that emotions are a guidance system, not a malfunction.
The mental health industrial complex is not a healthcare system. It's a control system. The drugs are weapons. The diagnoses are chains.
This is how you walk out of the cage.
Thu, 14 May 2026 - 236 - 229. Andrew Feldman's 50 Years of Guiding Psychedelic Journey's, A Warning
Andrew Feldmar has been guiding people through psychedelic journeys for over 50 years. He trained directly with R.D. Laing in London, worked with Stanislav Grof at Esalen, practiced at Hollywood Hospital when LSD was still legal medicine, and took part in the first MAPS Canada MDMA research for PTSD. A Hungarian-born psychotherapist who fled the 1956 revolution alone at 16, he has spent a lifetime refusing to pathologize normal human suffering. With the President signing an executive order to fast track psychedelics through the FDA, this conversation could not be more timely. Andrew explains why medicalizing these medicines is a grotesque category mistake, what gets lost when ceremony and relationship are replaced by sterile hospital protocols, and why the source only opens up between people. His new book, Radical Adventure: An Inquiry into Psychedelic Psychotherapy (Karnac Books, 2025), is a quiet act of resistance against the venture capital takeover of sacred work. If we're going to talk about psychedelics in 2026, we need to talk to someone who knew what they were before the industry came for them.
Thu, 07 May 2026 - 235 - 228. What Happens Years After Gender Transitioning?
Some lies leave scars you can see. Jennifer Miller, a licensed professional counselor with fifteen years of clinical experience, now sits with the detransitioners. The young women coming out the other side of a cultural lie, carrying its permanent mark on their bodies and asking the questions no one prepared them for. What pulled them in? What woke them up? What does the wreckage actually look like once the affirmation stops? And how did an entire culture, an entire profession, march millions of children down this road while calling it care? Jennifer has been watching this story unfold for fifty years, first inside her own family, now inside her therapy office. She left the mental health system in 2020 and has been telling the truth ever since. This episode is about more than gender. It is about how minds get captured, how good people participate in harm, and what human vulnerability looks like when the institutions sworn to protect us become the ones doing the cutting. Listen now.

In 1976, scientists discovered something so significant they gave it a name that said everything. That name was scrubbed from the literature eight years later. Dr. William Supple is a neuroscientist. He didn't set out to become one of the most controversial voices in cancer research. He was trying to save someone he loved. What he found in the process — buried in peer-reviewed journals, hidden in WHO population data, and documented across hundreds of real human cases — will permanently change the way you think about cancer, what it is, who profits from it, and what has been available all along. Cancer Is a Parasite by Dr. William Supple is available on Amazon. Dr. Supple's research is at fenbendazole.substack.com.
Thu, 16 Apr 2026 - 233 - 226. Awakening to Higher States of Consciousness with Dr. Mauro Zappaterra
Dr. Mauro Zappaterra trained at Harvard Medical School, holds both an MD and a PhD, and spent years in one of the most elite research labs in the world.Then he felt something move through his spine that changed everything. This episode starts with neuroscience and ends somewhere most people aren’t used to going. Right now there is a fluid bathing your brain. It pulses with every heartbeat. It clears toxins from your brain while you sleep. It guided the development of every neuron you were born with. Scientists are only beginning to understand what it does. Every major ancient tradition on earth built spiritual practices around activating this exact system. They called it the Crystal Palace. The third eye. The cave of Brahma. They mapped it thousands of years before we had MRI machines to confirm it. Dr. Zappaterra believes this system is the gateway to higher consciousness. We have the ability to activate this... all of us.
Thu, 09 Apr 2026 - 232 - 225. Remove the Interference- Prayer, Placebo and the Science of Healing w/ Dr. Ben Rall
What happens when cutting-edge science and ancient faith point to the same truth?
In this deeply personal and spiritually charged conversation, Dr. Roger McFillin welcomes back Dr. Ben Rall — chiropractor, author, and devoted follower of Christ — for what may be their most meaningful conversation yet. Released on Holy Thursday, this episode sits at the intersection of peer-reviewed research and transcendent faith, asking questions that our modern medical system was never designed to answer. What is actually happening inside the healing encounter? How much does the practitioner matter? And what does science now tell us about the power of belief, prayer, and human connection on biological outcomes?
Thu, 02 Apr 2026 - 231 - 224. Mass Murder for Organs: How China Built a Kill-to-Order Industry — with Jan Jekielek
Jan Jekielek is one of the most important journalists working today. As senior editor at Epoch Times and host of American Thought Leaders, he has interviewed nearly a thousand heads of state, scientists, dissidents, and survivors — and for two decades he has been doing what almost no one in Western media would: documenting China's state-sanctioned, industrialized harvesting of organs from living prisoners of conscience.
His new book, Killed to Order, makes the case that this is the largest ongoing crime against humanity on the planet — and that most of us have been counting on not to notice. In this conversation, Jan traces how a peaceful spiritual movement became the target of an extermination campaign, how prisoners of conscience became a living organ database, and why the global elite's obsession with longevity may be more connected to this atrocity than anyone wants to admit. This is a conversation that demands something of you. Jan has spent twenty years carrying a truth the world wasn't ready to receive. It's time to receive it.
Thu, 26 Mar 2026 - 230 - 223. The CIA's Connection to Modern Psychiatry
A document written in 1952. Declassified in 1983. Quietly re-cataloged in 2025 — without a single headline. Dr. Roger McFillin follows that document to where he believes it leads. The destination is not Cold War history. It's your medicine cabinet.
Before there were SSRIs, there were research programs. Before the DSM, there were experiments. Dr. McFillin connects dots the mainstream has never connected — using only public records, peer-reviewed data, and 20 years of sitting across from people the system was supposed to help. The trail is longer than you think. And it ends somewhere you won't expect.
Thu, 19 Mar 2026 - 229 - 222. Your Thoughts Are Not Your Own: An Introduction to Mind Control
Dr. Roger McFillin explores the hidden mechanisms of mind control, societal programming, and how media, history, and psychology shape our perceptions and behaviors. This episode uncovers documented research, historical experiments, and practical insights to empower individuals to reclaim mental sovereignty. By the end of this episode, you will understand the system you are living inside. And you will understand why one person willing to refuse changes everything.
Thu, 12 Mar 2026 - 228 - 221. A Yale MD on Angels, Telepathy & the Spiritual Root of the Mental Health Epidemic
Dr. Anna Yusim didn't abandon western material science. She outgrew it. Stanford. Yale. NYU. Board certified. Faculty at one of the most prestigious medical institutions in the world. And she will tell you, without hesitation, that guides and angels are real, that dark entities attack people, that spiritual awakenings get misdiagnosed as psychosis every day, and that the psychiatric system is doing harm it cannot see.
This is the conversation that extends beyond the limitations of our 5 senses. We cover what opened her framework, what post-materialist research at Yale and Hopkins is actually finding, why psilocybin works better when it gets spiritual, how forgiveness functions as medicine, what telepathy really is, and what protects you from energies that Western medicine has no language for.
Dr. Anna Yusim, MD | Yale Faculty | Author of Fulfilled
Thu, 05 Mar 2026 - 227 - 220. Epstein, Eugenics and How To Break A Human Being
The release of the Epstein files is a window into something far larger: power operating in the shadows, shaping culture, medicine, and the future of humanity itself. In this episode, I connect that to the transhumanist movement, which is nothing more than eugenics repackaged for a new era, and to the psychiatric industrial complex, which has always been part of that anti-human project.
I then share 10 minutes from a recent conference talk where I spoke directly about what I believe is a systematic assault on human consciousness. Pathologizing the inner world, suppressing spiritual identity, severing people from God, from nature, from one another. This is not accident or incompetence. It is by design. When you disconnect people from their soul, you create a population that is dependent, confused, and easily controlled. That is the function of the mental health industrial complex. It is time to reclaim your sovereignty, your spirit, and your mind.
Thu, 19 Feb 2026 - 226 - 219. They Told Her She Was Dangerous. Her Patients Say She Saved Their Lives
A board-certified psychiatrist trained at one of the most prestigious psychiatric institutions in the world was fired for refusing to put a young woman on medication after the last prescription nearly killed her. Dr. Aruna Nammi left the system and built something radically different, combining functional medicine with 5,000-year-old Ayurvedic wisdom to reverse conditions psychiatry calls chronic and incurable. We go deep on why depression is a disconnection syndrome, the three root causes of all disease, what ancient traditions understood about psychosis that modern psychiatry ignores, and the shift in consciousness that may be unfolding on this planet right now.
Thu, 12 Feb 2026 - 225 - 218. The Psychiatric Drug Complex and the War on the Human Soul
Dr. McFillin was a guest on the popular Health Ranger Report. This is the full interview. He was joined by Tracy Thurman-a person of faith until a cardiologist—not a psychiatrist—put her on Prozac for "energy." Within weeks, her connection to God vanished. She became a materialist atheist for seven years. In this episode, Tracy and Dr. McFillin expose what they call the psychiatric industrial complex's "spiritual weapon of war"—and why these drugs are designed to make you feel dead insideand that experience is measured as "working". A fascinating episode featuring a topic rarely discussed.
Thu, 05 Feb 2026 - 224 - 217. The Harms of SSRI's During Pregnancy Debate w/ Dr. Adam Urato and Dr. Robert Chen
Three facts are scientifically undisputed: Serotonin is essential for fetal brain development. SSRIs disrupt the serotonin system. SSRIs freely cross the placenta. So why are pregnant women being told these drugs carry "little or no risk"?
In this rare head-to-head debate, Dr. Adam Urato—maternal-fetal medicine specialist and FDA expert panelist—faces off against Dr. Robert Chen, a psychiatry resident willing to do what most of his colleagues won't: step into the arena and defend the establishment position.
What unfolds is a striking conversation where both physicians actually agree on more than you'd expect—including that informed consent is failing pregnant women, that the chemical imbalance theory is dead, and that "untreated depression" is a misleading frame designed to sell drugs. The uncomfortable question neither side can fully answer: If SSRIs are correcting depression, why does the research show worse outcomes for women who stay on them?
This isn't anti-medication propaganda. It's the conversation your doctor isn't trained to have with you.
Listen before you fill that prescription.
Thu, 29 Jan 2026 - 223 - 216. I Was A Prisoner Of My Own Mind w/ Dr. Riz Ahmad
Dr. Riz Ahmad could have been diagnosed with social anxiety, autism spectrum, and depression as a teenager. Instead, he became one of the most talented psychologists I've ever worked with.
In this episode, Riz shares his journey from fear-driven perfectionist—completely fused with his mind and disconnected from his body—to an eight-week stay at a Zen Buddhist monastery that changed everything. What happened when his mind finally went quiet? And what does his story reveal about the dangers of how we label and treat human suffering today?
A radically genuine conversation about ego, consciousness, and what mainstream psychology is missing.
Thu, 22 Jan 2026 - 222 - 215. This is What Happens When You "Medicate" Grief with Mary Ann Kenny
When does sadness become a disease? Grief? Dr. Roger McFillin sits down with Mary Ann Kenny a lecturer, a mother of two, and the author of The Episode: A True Story of Loss, Madness and Healing. Ten years ago, her husband went out for a morning run and never came home. What followed was grief—and then a collision with a psychiatric system that would change her life in ways she never could have anticipated.
Thu, 15 Jan 2026 - 221 - 214. When the Body Holds What the Mind Can't with Inna Segal
What if chronic illness isn't just a physical problem—but a message from your body waiting to be understood?
In this episode, Dr. Roger McFillin sits down with Inna Segal, a pioneering figure in energy medicine and human consciousness with over 25 years of experience helping individuals tap into their innate healing potential. Inna is the bestselling author of The Secret Language of Your Body, a transformative work that has been translated into 27 languages and sold over one million copies worldwide.
Thu, 08 Jan 2026 - 220 - 213. "Psychiatry Is 90% a Scam" — A Psychiatrist Speaks Out
What happens when a psychiatrist trained in one of the most research-driven programs in the world starts asking questions nobody wants to answer? Dr. John Yaakov Guterson is a board-certified psychiatrist who trained at the prestigious Western Psychiatric Institute and Clinic in Pittsburgh, once the top-funded psychiatric research program in the world. He served as medical director of multiple psychiatric hospitals for over 25 years while maintaining a private practice. Known as "The Singing Psychiatrist," Dr. Guterson has produced over 750 videos exploring the intersection of mental health, spirituality, and the human soul. In this conversation, we go where mainstream psychiatry refuses to go. We talk about what gets lost when you reduce the human soul to a checklist of symptoms. We explore whether suffering might actually mean something. And we ask a question the medical establishment has worked very hard to bury: What if we've been getting this wrong for a century?
Thu, 01 Jan 2026 - 219 - 212. Your Emotions Aren’t the Problem, They’re the Signal with Dr. Anders Sørensen
Anders Sorensen is a Danish clinical psychologist with a PhD in psychiatry. He's one of the world's leading authorities on psychiatric drug dependence and the complex science of safely discontinuing these medications.

What Would It Take to Lose Every Civil Right You Have?Not a trial. Not a conviction. Not evidence of a crime.
In America, all it takes is one person's opinion—dressed up in medical language and backed by institutional authority.
Rachel Hunter walked into a hospital for a routine check. She walked out 38 days later, having been transferred between multiple psychiatric facilities, forcibly injected with antipsychotics, and stripped of her autonomy—all without her consent. Her crime? She'd been baptized. She felt at peace. She prayed for her neighbors. In this episode, Rachel shares what happened when a spiritual awakening was reinterpreted as a psychiatric emergency—and what she discovered when she started investigating the system that imprisoned her. This is a story about how easily your freedom can disappear. And about one woman who refused to stay silent. If you think this couldn't happen to you or someone you love, this episode will change your mind. Listen. Then share it with someone who needs to hear it.

Dr. Roger McFillin was interviewed by Renaud Beauchard from Tocsin Media—France's leading independent media platform with 30 million monthly views. In this unflinching conversation, Dr. Roger McFillin exposes what he calls a deliberate psychological operation on the American people: a system designed not to heal but to create lifelong customers, sever your connection to God, and make you dependent on medical authority for problems that were never diseases in the first place. The chemical imbalance theory? Born in pharmaceutical marketing rooms, not laboratories. ADHD? A label that stops investigation into the real causes poisoning our children. This isn't incompetence. It's an attack on human consciousness itself. And the first step to freedom is understanding exactly how they did it to you.

Army veteran Angie Peacock survived Iraq in 2003, only to become a prisoner of psychiatric torture. Between VA and civilian psychiatrists, she was prescribed 18 psychiatric drugs at once, then cold-turkeyed off benzodiazepines—leaving her unable to walk for 2.5 years and suicidal for three straight years.After losing 20 years to psychiatric "treatment," Angie escaped and has since helped over 1,000 people navigate psychiatric drug withdrawal. In this explosive conversation, she exposes how both military and civilian psychiatry systematically poison patients, why asking for help destroyed her military career, and delivers a radical truth: the mental health system isn't broken—it's designed to create lifelong patients.
For anyone trapped in psychiatric dependency or questioning their "treatment resistant" label, this episode proves you're not crazy. They are.

Thu, 30 Oct 2025 - 213 - 206. EXPLOSIVE ADHD Debate You Need to Hear with Psychiatrist Dr. Ryan Sultan
Dr. Ryan Sultan is a Board Certified Adult and Child Psychiatrist, researcher and Assistant Professor of Clinical Psychiatry at Columbia University Irving Medical Center. He is also in private practice with expertise in the evaluation and treatment of ADHD. One in six American boys is now diagnosed with ADHD. In France, it's one in 200. American children are diagnosed with ADHD at rates 30 times higher than other Western nations. We consume 80% of the world's ADHD stimulants despite being 4% of the population.There's no blood test, no brain scan, no biological evidence this "disorder" actually exists - just subjective checklists and lines of questioning. In this essential episode, Dr. McFillin challenges the validity and reliability of ADHD diagnosis, and what unfolds is a stunning revelation about how 7 million children ended up on amphetamines.

- The Diagnosis Shopping Game: The article admits that using DSM-IV criteria produces the "highest prevalence rates" compared to other diagnostic systems. Translation: American psychiatry created diagnostic criteria that captures the most kids. This isn't discovering disease - it's widening the net.The 20-Fold Difference They Can't Explain: The article acknowledges a "20-fold greater prevalence of childhood hyperactivity in North America compared with England" in 1970s studies. Their explanation? Different diagnostic practices, not different children. So they're admitting the "disease" depends entirely on who's doing the diagnosing.The Admission Hidden in Plain Sight: The authors state that differences in prevalence "reflect differences in diagnostic practice rather than true differences in behavior." They're literally admitting ADHD prevalence is about diagnostic opinion, not biological reality.Even establishment researchers like Faraone admit that ADHD prevalence varies 20-fold based on diagnostic criteria used, not actual differences in children's behavior. They acknowledge it's diagnostic practice, not disease prevalence, that creates these massive variations. This 2003 paper proves psychiatry has known for decades that ADHD rates are artificially inflated by American diagnostic criteria.
The Irony: This paper, trying to prove ADHD is universal, actually proves it's a diagnostic construct that changes based on which manual you use. That's not how real diseases work.
Thu, 23 Oct 2025 - 212 - 205. Can Faith and Prayer Really Heal You?
What if the mental health crisis isn't just a medical problem—but a spiritual one being treated with the wrong tools? In this paradigm-shifting episode, Beatty Carmichael reveals how he's helped over 1,000 people find freedom from conditions labeled as mental illness, chronic pain, and addiction—often within 24 hours—by addressing what he calls the "spiritual roots" of suffering. After God took away his supernatural healing gift that worked 90% of the time, Carmichael was forced to develop a systematic approach that anyone can learn. Watch as he demonstrates his Prayer of Freedom process live with Dr. McFillin, producing real-time results that challenge everything we think we know about healing. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, depression, chronic pain, or simply curious about the intersection of spirituality and health, this conversation offers a radically different perspective on why traditional approaches may be failing—and what actually works when we address the invisible forces at play.
About Beatty Carmichael:
Beatty Carmichael is a former business executive who comes from seven generations of medical doctors. After 25 years in marketing and helping real estate agents generate listings, his life took an unexpected turn when God gave him a gift of healing that resulted in 90% of people he prayed for experiencing instant relief from conditions ranging from chronic pain to mental illness. When God removed this gift to teach him how to systematize the process, Carmichael developed The Prayer of Freedom—a step-by-step guide that enables anyone to address the spiritual roots of their suffering. He is the founder of Get Radical Faith Ministries, reaching audiences worldwide through live events, podcasts, and video broadcasts. Carmichael regularly teaches at one of America's largest addiction recovery centers, where he's documented an 87% success rate using his methods. His unique approach bridges the gap between ancient spiritual wisdom and practical application, offering hope to those who've found limited relief through conventional treatments.

Your doctor just became your worst enemy. When the medical establishment brands chronic dizziness conditions like PPPD, MDDS, and vestibular migraines as "incurable," they're not just wrong, they're actively destroying lives through calculated ignorance. Dr. Yonit Arthur, a board-certified audiologist with a doctorate from Purdue University, drops a bombshell: patients experiencing 24/7 sensory collapse, paralyzing terror, and complete disorientation aren't suffering from permanent damage. They're trapped in a fear loop that doctors reinforce with every "learn to manage it" prescription. After watching the medical system fail hundreds of desperate patients who've seen 20, 30, even 40 specialists, Dr. Arthur launched The Steady Coach a popular YouTube channel with free courses to expose an uncomfortable truth. These "chronic" conditions persist because patients have been programmed to believe they're broken. We discuss the way out.

Is ADHD really a brain disorder or a label created to sell drugs? Dr. Roger McFillin speaks with filmmaker Roman Wyden, founder of the ADHD Is Over movement- that includes a book, podcast and upcoming documentary. Roman shares why he rejected the ADHD label for his son and what he uncovered about the system behind it: schools, pharma, and psychiatry pushing parents toward pills. Together they expose how 6 million children in America are prescribed stimulants like Adderall and Ritalin, the billion-dollar ADHD industry that profits from it, and why more parents are waking up and saying: ADHD is over.
Thu, 02 Oct 2025 - 209 - 202. The Session That Made Me Question Everything I Know About Healing
In this mind-bending episode, Dr. Roger McFillin shares the therapy session that shattered his understanding of how healing actually works. Originally written on his substack he feels compelled to share the entire story (with his clients permission). What started as a routine Monday evening appointment with a client overwhelmed, ready to give up and go on psychiatric drugs became the most extraordinary 90 minutes of his career. By the end, he witnessed something that defied all explanation—and then his car did something in the parking lot that made him question reality itself. A powerful lesson in the abilities we all possess but have forgotten.
Thu, 25 Sep 2025 - 208 - 201. Could Poor Breathing Be Causing Anxiety, Fatigue, and Poor Sleep?
Most of us never think about how we breathe but science shows it may be one of the most overlooked drivers of health and disease.
Dr. Roger McFillin talks with Dr. Amy Lichon, a double-board-certified physician who left a successful hospital career to teach people how to heal through their breath. They explore why mouth breathing fuels anxiety, insomnia, and fatigue, how carbon dioxide and nasal breathing affect the nervous system, and why a century-old method called Buteyko could transform sleep, focus, and even athletic performance.
You’ll learn practical tools from a simple “control pause” test to techniques for decongesting the nose and calming the nervous system that anyone can start today. If you’ve tried everything for stress, sleep, or focus and nothing sticks, this conversation may reveal the missing piece.Learn more about Dr. Amy Lichon here: https://www.courami.com/

Joanna Moncrieff is a British psychiatrist and academic. She is Professor of Critical and Social Psychiatry at University College London and a member of the Critical Psychiatry Network. She is the author of The Myth of the Chemical Cure and The Bitterest Pills, which are considered central texts in the critical psychiatry movement. Moncrieff is critical of mainstream psychiatry’s medical model of mental illness. Professor Moncrief's 2022 paper in molecular psychiatry didn't just make waves, it created a tsunami. Leading a systemic review of five decades of research, she and her team definitively demonstrated what no one had dared to state so clearly that there's no convincing evidence that depression is caused by a serotonin imbalance or any chemical imbalance at all. This paper became one of the most widely read scientific papers in modern history, ranking in the top 5 % of all research ever tracked. The world took notice because the world needed to know. Her groundbreaking new book, Chemically Imbalanced, The Making and Unmaking of the Serotonin Myth, meticulously documents how an entire medical narrative was constructed without scientific foundation marketed to billions and defended by institutions that should know better.

Most people think electroshock therapy was abandoned decades ago. The unfortunate truth is it’s still widely used, with well over 100,000 (probably much higher) Americans receiving ECT every year.Yet the devices have never been properly safety tested.
In this episode, Dr. Roger McFillin sits down with Sarah Price Hancock, a certified rehabilitation counselor, educator, and survivor who underwent 116 ECT treatments. Sarah lost 85–90% of her memories from the first 36 years of her life, developed neurological complications, and later learned her original psychiatric symptoms weren’t even a mental illness.Thu, 04 Sep 2025 - 205 - 198. The Hidden Mitochondrial Damage Caused By SSRI's
Dr. Chris Masterjohn is the host of the Mastering Nutrition Podcast and founder of Mitome, where he helps people optimize their mitochondrial health through advanced analysis. He received his PhD in Nutritional Sciences from the University of Connecticut, completed his postdoctoral research at the University of Illinois, and served as Assistant Professor at Brooklyn College before choosing to work independently - free from institutional constraints - in science research and education. His groundbreaking SSRI series on his substack hasn't just exposed the truth about these drugs. It's revealed that we've been looking at them completely wrong. Dr. McFillin and Dr. Masterjohn expose how these drugs act as mitochondrial toxins, disrupt cellular energy, and deplete serotonin. They also explore the consequences no one talks about: from prenatal exposure to why so many patients say they feel “dead inside.”

When Brandon and Whitney Cawood's three-year-old son was expelled from daycare for aggressive behavior, they faced a crossroads that would change not only their lives but potentially millions of others. Rather than accepting the psychiatric diagnoses being pushed on them, they discovered something shocking: their son's severe behavioral issues weren't psychological at all—they were chemical reactions to synthetic food dyes hiding in his daily allergy medication and antibiotics.
Within 48 hours of removing these petroleum-based chemicals from his diet, they met their real son for the first time. This revelation launched them on a journey that would lead to creating the documentary "To Dye For," building a community of nearly one million parents, and influencing legislation across multiple states.

The FDA held a panel discussion on antidepressants used during pregnancy. I was one of the expert presenters, and what I witnessed should alarm anyone who cares about honest medicine. In this episode, I break down the mainstream media response and what they kept out: SSRIs cross the placenta, change fetal brain development, and there is no proof they work at all- let alone prevent postpartum depression. You’ll also hear why this is bigger than one drug class. It's about a system that medicalizes emotions and protects profit over people. If you want the truth the headlines won’t give you, start here.

Every 19 minutes, someone in America dies from a drug overdose. 70% of street drugs now contain fentanyl. This isn’t the opioid crisis of the 2000s. This is far worse. Dr. Roger McFillin sits down with Richard Taite one of the most recognized voices in addiction treatment. If you've followed addiction treatment or the opioid crisis over the past two decades, you've probably seen him. He's been featured on HBO's Real Time with Bill Maher, ABC's Nightline, CBS This Morning, and Entertainment Tonight. He was the addiction expert featured in the award-winning documentary 'Prescription Thugs.' He's one of the most recognized voices in addiction treatment in America. Richard’s journey is as raw as it gets. As the original founder of Cliffside Malibu, ultimately becoming the most elite rehab in America; today he’s back to fight an even deadlier epidemic as Executive Chairman of Carrara Treatment Wellness & Spa.

Once paraded in the media as a hero, Dr. James Henry became the symbol of a “progressive” military—the first openly transgender active-duty officer. But the story the public saw was only part of the truth. In this episode, Dr. Henry shares what really happened behind the scenes. The early struggles with identity. The weight of religious shame. The celebration that came with transitioning—and the breakdown that followed. He opens up about being misdiagnosed, overmedicated, and failed by the very systems meant to protect him. Now, years later, Dr. Henry faces a federal indictment after a confrontation with the FBI. This is not a story of affirmation. It’s a story of survival, betrayal, and the cost of speaking out.
Thu, 17 Jul 2025 - 198 - 191. Heated Debate with Columbia University Professor of Psychiatry
In this explosive and highly anticipated episode, Dr. Roger McFillin hosts Dr. Ragy Girgis, a Columbia University Professor of Psychiatry and researcher, for a no-holds-barred confrontation that exposes the shocking divisions tearing apart the mental health field. What begins as a conversation about mass violence research rapidly explodes into a devastating examination of psychiatric medicine's crumbling foundations, questionable effectiveness, and devastating potential harms. The two clash in fierce, unrelenting disagreements over fundamental issues including the validity of DSM diagnoses, the debunked "chemical imbalance" theory of depression, dangerous SSRI safety cover-ups and black box warnings, corrupted research quality and pharmaceutical industry manipulation, and the catastrophic crisis of psychiatric drug overprescription poisoning 1 in 4-5 Americans. Dr. Girgis desperately defends traditional academic psychiatry and current treatment approaches, while Dr. McFillin ruthlessly dismantles the entire paradigm, arguing that the current system is systematically creating chronic mental illness rather than healing it. Buckle up for this brutal intellectual warfare.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________Throughout the interview, Dr. Girgis repeatedly stated that "the data is clear" while dismissing contradictory evidence that challenges his conclusions. For our listeners' benefit, I have compiled research and documentation that directly disputes several of Dr. Girgis's key claims.
Serotonin Hypothesis of Depression
1. The serotonin theory of depression: a systematic umbrella review of the evidence (Moncrieff et al.)
Conclusions: "This review suggests that the huge research effort based on the serotonin hypothesis has NOT produced convincing evidence of a biochemical basis to depression. This is consistent with research on many other biological markers . We suggest it is time to acknowledge that the serotonin theory of depression is NOT empirically substantiated."
2.What has serotonin to do with depression?
Conclusions: "Simple biochemical theories that link low levels of serotonin with depressed mood are no longer tenable."

The 1988 document indicated that 3.7 percent of patients attempted suicide while on the blockbuster drug, a rate more than 12 times that cited for any of four other commonly used antidepressants.In addition, the paper said that 1.6 percent of patients reported incidents of hostility -- more than double the rate reported by patients on any of four other commonly used antidepressants."Examples of Violence after Prescription in legal system (Sample)

Our mental health crisis isn't mysterious - it's the predictable result of systematic cultural programming designed to keep us medicated, divided, and compliant.Dr. Roger McFillin conducts a disturbing deep-dive investigation into America's most popular cultural content to uncover the hidden forces driving our unprecedented mental health epidemic. His shocking discoveries include the Call Her Daddy podcast, where thousands of teenage girls celebrate STDs as feminist achievements, and mainstream media outlets that casually normalize genocide and mass violence as dinner table conversation. Dr. McFillin exposes what he believes is a coordinated three-phase assault on human psychological well-being: first, destroy healthy models of self-worth; second, desensitize the population to violence and dehumanization through media conditioning; and finally, capture these wounded souls through pharmaceutical dependency disguised as healthcare. The solution isn't more pills or endless therapy sessions - it's awakening to these toxic cultural narratives and choosing to resist them. Because once you see the programming, you cannot unsee it.

Dr. Robert Sullivan, a 49-year-old anesthesiologist in peak physical condition, was featured in the Wall Street Journal for his aerial circus arts just months before getting his COVID vaccine. Within weeks of his second shot, he could barely walk upstairs without gasping for air. Diagnosed with pulmonary hypertension—a condition so rare it affects 1 in a million people and typically kills within 3-7 years—Dr. Sullivan found himself trapped between two devastating realities: his medical colleagues' dismissive silence and his own desperate search for answers. When the scientific method becomes subordinate to pharmaceutical profits and government narratives, medicine dies and propaganda in white coats takes its place. Dr. Sullivan and Dr. McFillin discuss the dangerous psychology of medical compliance and dissect how groupthink has weaponized modern healthcare.
Thu, 19 Jun 2025 - 194 - 187. Vaccine Safety Epidemiologist Exposes Truth Behind Vaccine Safety Trials
Vaccines have become one of the most polarizing topics in public health, and frankly, for valid reasons. What we've witnessed over the past few years is an unprecedented breakdown in trust between medical institutions and the public - and that didn't happen in a vacuum.
What is the truth about Vaccine Safety and Efficacy? Dr. Roger McFillin sits down with vaccine safety epidemiologist Allison Krug to expose the hidden forces shaping public health, from vaccine safety to the weaponization of fear. They dive deep into the failures of placebo-controlled trials, the truth about natural immunity vs. vaccine-induced immunity, and why good evidence is harder to find than you think. Allison shares what she learned working inside the pharmaceutical industry and reveals how mindset, belief systems, and disconnection from nature and spirituality are fueling today’s chronic illness crisis. If you've ever questioned mainstream medicine or want to reclaim your health and autonomy, this conversation will change how you see the world.

Dr. Sina McCullough possessed every credential that should have saved her—PhD in nutrition, functional medicine training, master herbalist certification. Instead, she was dying. Too weak to hold a cup. Watching her children from the floor because she couldn't stand. When twenty specialists across two decades dismissed her suffering as "all in your head," this elite-trained scientist made a desperate plea that shattered everything. What happened next defies every principle of conventional healing.Today, Dr. McCullough is a disease reversal expert, author of Hands Off My Food and Beyond Labels, co-host of the Beyond Labels Podcast, creator of the Go Wild healing program, and health columnist for the Epoch Times. But her most earth-shattering discovery came in her darkest hour—when death seemed certain and medicine had abandoned her.

Anders Sorensen is a Danish clinical psychologist with a PhD in psychiatry who has dedicated his career to an area that most professionals won't touch—and that most patients don't even know exists. He's one of the world's leading authorities on psychiatric drug dependence and the complex science of safely discontinuing these medications. His upcoming book represents years of clinical research and hands-on experience helping hundreds of people navigate what may be one of the most misunderstood medical challenges of our time. This isn't just another podcast about mental health. This is a conversation that could fundamentally change how you understand psychiatric medications, withdrawal, and what's actually happening in the brains and bodies of millions of Americans right now. Dr. McFillin and Anders dive into territory that most medical professionals avoid—not because it's controversial, but because it requires a level of specialized knowledge that simply doesn't exist in mainstream medicine. What you'll hear challenges everything you've been told about these medications, reveals why so many people feel "trapped" on their prescriptions, and exposes a gap in medical care that's affecting countless lives.

Professor Jon Jureidini is a child psychiatrist who leads the Critical and Ethical Mental Health research group at Adelaide University in Australia. His forensic deconstruction of industry-sponsored clinical trials has exposed how pharmaceutical companies manipulate data, employ ghostwriters, and cultivate academic figureheads to create an illusion of scientific consensus around their products. Prof. Jureidini has revealed how medications prescribed to our most vulnerable populations—children and adolescents—gained approval based on studies that were fundamentally misrepresented in the scientific literature. In his groundbreaking book, 'The Illusion of Evidence-Based Medicine: Exposing the crisis of credibility in clinical research,' co-authored with Leemon McHenry, he systematically demonstrates how commercial interests have hijacked the evidence base that clinicians rely on, compromising patient care in the process. His work raises profound questions about the integrity of published research and challenges us to reconsider the foundations of modern medicine. Jureidini reveals shocking findings about the landmark 'Treatment of Adolescent Depression Study (TADS) study that's been used to justify prescribing antidepressants to teenagers—despite evidence showing a five-fold increase in suicidal events. With nearly 20% of adolescent girls now taking SSRIs, this conversation exposes the profit-driven deception that puts millions of developing brains at risk while pharmaceutical companies continue to thrive on what Jureidini calls "the illusion of evidence-based medicine

Behind every psychiatric label lies a question: Is this person mentally ill, or just misunderstood by medicine? When Dr. Kaycee Bills, a social work professor with a PhD, experienced a medical emergency from low blood pressure, she was handcuffed, sedated, and locked in a psychiatric ward instead of receiving proper care. Her crime? Being a woman whose scattered Adderall pills looked "suspicious" to authorities. This shocking personal account reveals how women are systematically disbelieved by the medical establishment—diagnosed with depression and anxiety at twice the rate of men, while serious physical conditions go untreated for years. Join Dr. Roger McFillin and Dr. Bills as they expose the dark underbelly of psychiatric holds, forced medication, and how the mental health system often traumatizes those it claims to help.

Is EMDR therapy legitimate science or pseudoscientific sham? In this provocative debate, Dr. Roger McFillin challenges Taraleigh Stemler, a certified EMDR practitioner and licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT), on whether the popular trauma treatment's signature eye movements and bilateral stimulation offer any real benefit, or if exposure therapy—simply facing painful memories—is doing all the heavy lifting. As both clinicians clash over research validity, the "medicalization" of normal emotions, and whether we've created a therapy-dependent culture, this raw conversation exposes the tribal warfare happening within mental health treatment that directly impacts which therapies patients receive.

On Wednesday, January 22nd 2025 Dr. Roger McFillin was interviewed by Dr. Nikki Johnson, a pediatrician and the Director of FAIR (Foundation Against Intolerance and Racism) in Medicine for a live webinar event. The webinar, titled "Informed Consent and SSRIs Revisited: Side Effects and Treatment Alternatives," tackles one of the most pressing issues in mental healthcare today. It was too important to not get out on a podcast episode. Medical freedom and Informed consent are one of the most pressing issues of our time. The Foundation Against Intolerance & Racism ("FAIR")is a nonprofit, nonpartisan organization committed to challenging threats to civil liberties from identity-based practices. As an organization committed to promoting honest scientific discourse and defending medical freedom, FAIR is uniquely positioned to facilitate these crucial conversations. During this live webinar, Dr. McFillin and Dr. Johnson explored critical questions about SSRI medications that often go undiscussed: What are the full range of side effects? What alternative treatments exist? How has industry influence shaped our understanding of these medications? Most importantly, what information do patients need for genuine informed consent?

Dr. Roger McFillin welcomes back Clinical Psychologist Dr. Riz Ahmad to explore a fundamental question: "Does nature make mistakes?" Challenging conventional psychiatric approaches, they argue that what we label as mental illness is actually be the body's natural signals for change. The psychologists contrast traditional mental health treatment with 'functional mental health', which focuses on root causes and the interconnection between physical and mental well-being rather than subjective labels and drugs. Through practical examples, they advocate for a paradigm shift that considers the whole person - from lifestyle and nutrition to relationships and spiritual health - ultimately calling for a healthcare system that heals rather than simply suppresses symptoms.

Following his profound discussion with Dr. Diane Hennacy Powell on the "telepathy tapes" documenting verified telepathic communication among non-speaking autistic individuals, Dr. Roger McFillin delves deeper into the implications of post-materialist science. Drawing from rigorous research at the University of Virginia, including documented cases of past-life memories and verifiable near-death experiences, McFillin examines how these findings align with Powell's groundbreaking work to challenge conventional psychiatric models. Together, these episodes present compelling evidence that consciousness extends beyond the brain, suggesting that what we label as mental disorders might instead be natural adaptations to our rapidly changing environment. Evolving science points toward a paradigm shift in how we understand human consciousness, mental health, and evolutionary potential.

Dr. Roger McFillin challenges everything we think we know about OCD treatment, arguing that many standard approaches aren't just ineffective – they're actively harmful. He delivers a scathing critique of the mental health establishment's reliance on SSRIs and traditional talk therapy, suggesting that what's often labeled "treatment-resistant" OCD might actually be the result of incompetent treatment. McFillin controversially reframes OCD not as a brain disorder, but as an evolutionary adaptation that can become problematic in certain contexts. He exposes two critical processes that most treatments miss – thought-action fusion and intolerance of uncertainty – while arguing that trying to suppress or control intrusive thoughts through medication paradoxically reinforces the very mechanisms that maintain OCD. Challenging the medical establishment's view, McFillin suggests our culture's obsession with pathologizing normal human experiences has created a fear of our own minds that makes OCD worse, while offering hope that recovery is possible with the right approach.

Justin Garson, professor of philosophy at Hunter College and the Graduate Center City University of New York and author of "Madness: A Philosophical Exploration," has emerged as one of psychiatry's most compelling critics. In this explosive episode, he challenges everything we've been told about mental illness, revealing why depression, ADHD, and even schizophrenia aren't brain diseases – they're adaptive responses that may have kept our ancestors alive. From his father's struggle with schizophrenia in the Nixon era to his own teenage experience with depression, Garson exposes how the "broken brain" narrative has robbed us of agency, created dependency on psychiatric drugs, and ignored the real roots of human suffering. Whether you've been diagnosed with a mental illness, take psychiatric medication, or simply wonder about the nature of human consciousness, this conversation will fundamentally change how you think about mental health in modern society.

A re-released episode with points that still stand. As America responded with a mandate for Donald Trump, Dr. McFillin issues a powerful call to action: Making America Healthy Again demands more than policy change—it requires reclaiming our fundamental emotional sovereignty. In this compelling episode, he exposes how the modern mental health system has conditioned us to fear natural emotional responses, creating cycles of dependency and spiritual disconnection.
Dr. McFillin argues that depression and anxiety aren't disorders but transformative spiritual forces that have been pathologized through decades of pharmaceutical marketing. Drawing from ancient wisdom, he reveals how suppressing these emotional states serves a broader system of control, disconnecting people from their inner guidance and spiritual power. The COVID crisis, he suggests, demonstrated how medical authorities can shape public behavior through fear.
The path forward requires revolutionizing our approach to emotional wellness. Instead of medicating away our pain, we must recognize these experiences as catalysts for personal and societal transformation. Dr. McFillin outlines how emotional resilience—not emotional suppression—builds the strong, discerning citizens needed to preserve American values and freedoms. This episode provides a roadmap for breaking free from the "mental health matrix" and restoring our natural capacity for growth through emotional awareness.

Breaking Free From Psychiatric Drug Dependency w/ Pharmacist Dr. Shawn Gill
An alarming number of individuals find themselves dependent on antidepressants and psychiatric medications, desperately seeking guidance on how to safely discontinue their use. The general medical community has failed to assist people in safely getting off these drugs. The dependency can create severe withdrawal symptoms. Most doctors have no clue how to get their patients off safely keeping them in a cycle of drug dependency. The worst of prescribers will frame the withdrawal symptoms as worsening "depression" and justification for staying on drugs. On Episode 154 of the Radically Genuine Podcast Dr. Roger McFillin dives into the topic of deprescribing and tapering off psychiatric drugs with a pharmacist.
Dr. Shawn Gill, PharmD, is a pharmacist, writer, podcaster, and entrepreneur dedicated to sparking change in healthcare through deprescribing.

Dr. McFillin analyzes the manipulation tactics employed by the pharmaceutical industry to alter our perceptions of depression and mental health. He breaks down the notorious Zoloft "blob" commercial from 2001, uncovering its powerful role in shaping public understanding of depression and how we treat it.

Because once you can spot the strings of the puppet masters, you can begin to cut them.
