Here's how it went down:
David Martin introduced me to Sacha Stone, with a nudge for him to blurb my new book. Cut to me receiving an email from Sacha's assistant saying that Sacha dug it, and was working on the blurb, and would I be available for a Zoom chat with Sacha to discuss participating in the Lazarus Collective Symposium.
I spent the morning before our chat in the recording studio, fixing a handful of spazzy glitches peppering the audio files of said new (audio)book - a recording studio without air conditioning. I raced home in time to hop on our chat, only to realize - as Sacha began reading from my (thoroughly outdated) bio - that we were recording a podcast.
Eek!
Vanity and microphone stuff aside, I think it went really well. Sacha asked me some really groovy, multidimensional questions that I'd not yet been asked, while he did not ask if he could take me out on a date, or whisper sweet everythings in my ear. Regardless, our banter was elevated and sparkly, and I trust you will enjoy it.

Today's episode is a little different...and kind of a big deal.
I'm announcing some major shifts, including why this will be my last podcast— for now.
But before we get there, we're diving headfirst into: Tesla virtue signaling, disposable relationships, why we're building secret cases against the people we claim to love, the bizarre tribalism infecting both the Left and the Right, women in business, integrity (or the shocking lack thereof), and why I'm far more interested in honest writing than feeding the endless content machine.
This one's spicy. Stick around until the end for the announcement that changes what's next.
What if the biggest battle of our time isn't political?
What if it's psychological?
In this wide-ranging conversation with journalist, author, researcher, Courtenay Turner, we connect the dots between technocracy, psychology, AI governance, education, propaganda, and the institutions shaping modern culture. From Tavistock and the evolution of psychology to AI voting, social engineering, transhumanism, and the regulatory infrastructure emerging around digital governance, we explore how systems of influence shape the way we think long before they shape the way we vote.
We also dive into eugenics, the philosophical roots of modern psychology, education as behavioral conditioning, the promise—and peril—of artificial intelligence, and why discernment has become one of the most important survival skills of the 21st century.

The Cult of Me + Why/When Your Truth is Irrelevant” Part 1
What do a rock concert, a customer service fail, AI, propaganda, the Santa Fe obelisk, and our collective obsession with "speaking our truth" have in common?
More than you think.
In this solo episode, I unpack the increasingly narcissistic programming that's convinced us self-expression is the highest virtue—even when it comes at the expense of service, discernment, accountability, or each other.
Along the way, I expose how media sneaks editorializing into reporting, why technological "progress" without wisdom/balance is a recipe for disaster, how language reveals the consciousness beneath our culture, and why I'm officially taking my investigative journalism to Substack.
If you've been wondering why everything feels increasingly self-centered, emotionally manipulative, and intellectually bankrupt...this one's for you.
Part 2 will drop for YOU, my beloved supporter, next week.
