00:22:13,950 --> 00:22:05,250 distributor of power balance wristbands 440 00:22:16,830 --> 00:22:13,960 collapses owner admits he was naive so 441 00:22:18,570 --> 00:22:16,840 Tom O'Dowd Hoover who I met and tested 442 00:22:21,150 --> 00:22:18,580 by the way on national television and 443 00:22:23,220 --> 00:22:21,160 told him and told him it didn't work 444 00:22:26,670 --> 00:22:23,230 it's finally come to the stage where 445 00:22:28,110 --> 00:22:26,680 he's out and he he thinks I should 446 00:22:29,610 --> 00:22:28,120 rephrase that he claims here that the 447 00:22:34,500 --> 00:22:29,620 business leaves debts of eight hundred 448 00:22:38,310 --> 00:22:34,510 thousand dollars he in this statement he 449 00:22:40,350 --> 00:22:38,320 goes on but he still says he still it 450 00:22:42,210 --> 00:22:40,360 says still have says here O'Dowd still 451 00:22:45,480 --> 00:22:42,220 believes that powered balanced product 452 00:22:47,430 --> 00:22:45,490 works he claims the return rate was just 453 00:22:48,960 --> 00:22:47,440 point three percent despite the company 454 00:22:51,060 --> 00:22:48,970 offering a full refund which proves 455 00:22:52,620 --> 00:22:51,070 everything which hey that's proof 456 00:22:54,240 --> 00:22:52,630 positive wasn't more evidence what you 457 00:22:57,180 --> 00:22:54,250 need right there following the logic 458 00:22:59,220 --> 00:22:57,190 that that if it works people will keep 459 00:23:01,800 --> 00:22:59,230 it not return it which that's not true 460 00:23:04,670 --> 00:23:01,810 at all people won't bother going to the 461 00:23:07,230 --> 00:23:04,680 the processes of returning it he's still 462 00:23:09,110 --> 00:23:07,240 according to this more or less blaming 463 00:23:11,250 --> 00:23:09,120 the fact he was

churches 643 00:31:25,350 --> 00:31:23,740 in the past have had agendas and have 644 00:31:28,259 --> 00:31:25,360 not been real with their congregation 645 00:31:32,370 --> 00:31:28,269 but this one

00:31:35,559 people can take risks in learning to 649 00:31:41,159 --> 00:31:37,389 operate in the supernatural without fear 650 00:31:42,720 --> 00:31:41,169 of rejection or failure the stunned 651 00:31:50,159 --> 00:31:42,730 silence at the table we're all looking 652 00:31:53,070 --> 00:31:50,169 like he's based in Australia these 653 00:31:55,620 --> 00:31:53,080 people are the basic California is the 654 00:31:57,570 --> 00:31:55,630 master in Redding California Bethel 655 00:32:01,080 --> 00:31:57,580 Church California but this particular 656 00:32:05,730 --> 00:32:01,090 church is in Ipswich Queensland oh is 657 00:32:09,450 --> 00:32:05,740 that where Pauline gain from uh the 658 00:32:11,490 --> 00:32:09,460 oxymoron yes this is also illegal to 659 00:32:12,810 --> 00:32:11,500 claim you can cure cancer Australia now 660 00:32:14,430 --> 00:32:12,820 that's a good point i wanted to ask 661 00:32:16,680 --> 00:32:14,440 somebody about this is that a federal 662 00:32:18,330 --> 00:32:16,690 way Laura state law or what's easy the 663 00:32:20,879 --> 00:32:18,340 problem is it and in fact I've been 664 00:32:23,639 --> 00:32:20,889 watching a story i was talking to 665 00:32:26,310 --> 00:32:23,649 Richard about earlier the the case which 666 00:32:28,980 --> 00:32:26,320 I had covered on the reality bites 667 00:32:31,490 --> 00:32:28,990 segment a while ago of the spiritual 668 00:32:32,620 --> 00:32:31,500 healing association of WA who are 669 00:32:37,330 --> 00:32:32,630 current 670 00:32:40,870 --> 00:32:37,340 they've got they've had action taken 671 00:32:42,550 --> 00:32:40,880 against their body a triple c and they 672 00:32:44,050 --> 00:32:42,560 were claiming to be able to cure people 673 00:32:47,920 --> 00:32:44,060 through the same kind of thing with 674 00:32:51,250 --> 00:32:47,930 miracle healings and so on and the the 675 00:32:53,680 --> 00:32:51,260 Justice who was hearing the case Anthony 676 00:32:56,740 --> 00:32:53,690 is the office I remember him saying that 677 00:32:58,060 --> 00:32:56,750 the problem he felt in the reason he 678 00:33:01,480 --> 00:32:58,070 felt that this was going to be difficult 679 00:33:04,330 --> 00:33:01,490 to deal with is that you can't how can 680 00:33:06,730 --> 00:33:04,340 you take on any situation where the 681 00:33:11,260 --> 00:33:06,740 where the person is saying I can if you 682 00:33:12,790 --> 00:33:11,270 believe so they can't be kind of taking 683 00:33:15,910 --> 00:33:12,800 the attitude and looking at these cases 684 00:33:17,620 --> 00:33:15,920 where the law can't really step in if 685 00:33:20,500 --> 00:33:17,630 they're making a claim to cure cancer 686 00:33:22,870 --> 00:33:20,510 but it's based on a belief system where 687 00:33:24,940 --> 00:33:22,880 religion is behind it there's very 688 00:33:26,920 --> 00:33:24,950 little that can be done so I'm quite 689 00:33:29,350 --> 00:33:26,930 keen to what's all I'm yup it becomes a 690 00:33:32,020 --> 00:33:29,360 religion yeah that's a good point it's 691 00:33:33,130 --> 00:33:32,030 already a bloody religion well so it'll 692 00:33:34,930 --> 00:33:33,140 be interesting to hear the outcome of 693 00:33:36,940 --> 00:33:34,940 that case because I mean inside some 694 00:33:39,010 --> 00:33:36,950 level this treads along similar lines 695 00:33:42,910 --> 00:33:39,020 they're making claims being able to cure 696 00:33:45,120 --> 00:33:42,920 cancer but it's really yeah it's based 697 00:33:48,310 --> 00:33:45,130 on unbelief on religious beliefs well 698 00:33:50,140 --> 00:33:48,320 well here's a clip of me right now on 699 00:33:53,590 --> 00:33:50,150 national television tomorrow talking 700 00:33:59,200 --> 00:33:53,600 about this very subject clip from the 701 00:34:00,880 --> 00:33:59,210 future Richard I'm watching you closely 702 00:34:03,720 --> 00:34:00,890 sitting there with yours best skeptics 703 00:34:07,570 --> 00:34:03,730 face on but your say best skeptic skippy 704 00:34:09,270 --> 00:34:07,580 yeah what do you think well I was trying 705 00:34:12,639 --> 00:34:09,280 to think of a word that is beyond 706 00:34:14,470 --> 00:34:12,649 skepticism for what what I'm appear to 707 00:34:16,990 --> 00:34:14,480 be reading here about claims about 708 00:34:18,700 --> 00:34:17,000 curing cancer or mending broken bones 709 00:34:21,040 --> 00:34:18,710 and somewhere in the meter even talks 710 00:34:22,540 --> 00:34:21,050 about raising the dead now look we have 711 00:34:24,310 --> 00:34:22,550 a lot of the fun in the skeptics I love 712 00:34:26,889 --> 00:34:24,320 chasing ghosts and doing all this sort 713 00:34:28,810 --> 00:34:26,899 of stuff but this is serious this is 714 00:34:31,600 --> 00:34:28,820 this is where all the laughs go away 715 00:34:34,869 --> 00:34:31,610 because there could be people out there 716 00:34:37,450 --> 00:34:34,879 who buy this guff and do not see their 717 00:34:39,639 --> 00:34:37,460 doctors if they have cancer and there 718 00:34:41,770 --> 00:34:39,649 are cases of people giving up their 719 00:34:43,919 --> 00:34:41,780 chemotherapy and their vital treatment 720 00:34:48,119 --> 00:34:43,929 and pursuing these dead ends 721 00:34:53,639 --> 00:34:48,129 dying yes that was me talking tomorrow 722 00:34:55,260 --> 00:34:53,649 about this very topic Doctor Who of 723 00:34:57,870 --> 00:34:55,270 course we're here we're recording this 724 00:35:02,849 --> 00:34:57,880 night before I'm going on television at 725 00:35:06,390 --> 00:35:02,859 least 900 there we go anyhow so that's a 726 00:35:10,230 --> 00:35:06,400 the latest from the school of the 727 00:35:12,420 --> 00:35:10,240 supernatural thank you Joe information 728 00:35:15,329 --> 00:35:12,430 we needed to know Iran you have some 729 00:35:18,510 --> 00:35:15,339 information we need to know yes ken 730 00:35:21,839 --> 00:35:18,520 harvey dr. ken harvey a good friend of 731 00:35:24,420 --> 00:35:21,849 the skeptical movement ken harvey has 732 00:35:28,680 --> 00:35:24,430 been fighting quackery for a very long 733 00:35:31,950 --> 00:35:28,690 time and he lodged a complaint with the 734 00:35:34,950 --> 00:35:31,960 TGA so Ken lodged the complaint with the 735 00:35:37,950 --> 00:35:34,960 Therapeutic Goods Administration against 736 00:35:42,809 --> 00:35:37,960 a company called sense sliema solution 737 00:35:44,370 --> 00:35:42,819 Oh offer died it's not a diet it's a 738 00:35:49,049 --> 00:35:44,380 something you spray into your mouth it's 739 00:35:50,309 --> 00:35:49,059 supposed to make you thinner yeah likely 740 00:35:53,309 --> 00:35:50,319 to be quackery I don't know much about 741 00:35:58,309 --> 00:35:53,319 it the point is that can lodge the 742 00:36:02,250 --> 00:35:58,319 complaint against them with the TGA and 743 00:36:05,700 --> 00:36:02,260 based on that complaint they sued him 744 00:36:08,099 --> 00:36:05,710 for libel now there's a reason why the 745 00:36:10,160 --> 00:36:08,109 city for libel in the in the evidence 746 00:36:13,829 --> 00:36:10,170 that they provided to the court they 747 00:36:16,200 --> 00:36:13,839 cited the complaint itself in an article 748 00:36:17,730 --> 00:36:16,210 that was published I think in Australian 749 00:36:20,789 --> 00:36:17,740 doctor or something like that I'm not 750 00:36:22,500 --> 00:36:20,799 sure at all pharmacies online or sun so 751 00:36:24,559 --> 00:36:22,510 some of the sunrise to website that 752 00:36:27,000 --> 00:36:24,569 somebody else wrote about that complaint 753 00:36:29,819 --> 00:36:27,010 which he didn't participate in it didn't 754 00:36:33,960 --> 00:36:29,829 right so it's it's got it's got a very 755 00:36:36,870 --> 00:36:33,970 small chance of success but while while 756 00:36:38,640 --> 00:36:36,880 this is going through the cords the law 757 00:36:41,010 --> 00:36:38,650 in Australia says that the Chi GTG I 758 00:36:42,720 --> 00:36:41,020 can't investigate the complaint ah so 759 00:36:45,690 --> 00:36:42,730 basically it's a delay it's a delay 760 00:36:49,230 --> 00:36:45,700 tactic online Jack now there was 761 00:36:51,690 --> 00:36:49,240 supposed to be a kennel supposed to have 762 00:36:54,120 --> 00:36:51,700 a day in court on Monday 763 00:36:57,839 --> 00:36:54,130 and they his lawyers have asked for the 764 00:37:00,270 --> 00:36:57,849 case to be dismissed I haven't been able 765 00:37:01,800 --> 00:37:00,280 to get in touch with Ken today I tried 766 00:37:03,810 --> 00:37:01,810 but I haven't been able to get in touch 767 00:37:05,819 --> 00:37:03,820 with him to find out what the results of 768 00:37:09,599 --> 00:37:05,829 that hearing were but in any case there 769 00:37:12,510 --> 00:37:09,609 the answer is unlikely to be a summary 770 00:37:13,859 --> 00:37:12,520 dismissal so the expectation is that the 771 00:37:17,329 --> 00:37:13,869 answer would be even if it is a 772 00:37:21,270 --> 00:37:17,339 dismissal will be in a few weeks time so 773 00:37:24,300 --> 00:37:21,280 ken has already spent about ten thousand 774 00:37:27,120 --> 00:37:24,310 dollars on this case because just to get 775 00:37:30,089 --> 00:37:27,130 the case thrown out that that's the cost 776 00:37:33,540 --> 00:37:30,099 so even if nothing else happens that 777 00:37:35,220 --> 00:37:33,550 sent about ten thousand dollars and even 778 00:37:38,430 --> 00:37:35,230 if he's awarded costs which is likely to 779 00:37:42,270 --> 00:37:38,440 happen if the case is dismissed he will 780 00:37:45,660 --> 00:37:42,280 still be out of pocket so we are alien 781 00:37:48,210 --> 00:37:45,670 skeptics decided to do a pledge drive to 782 00:37:49,319 --> 00:37:48,220 make sure that ken is not out of pocket 783 00:37:51,270 --> 00:37:49,329 because nobody should be out of pocket 784 00:37:56,130 --> 00:37:51,280 for logic and complaints to complain 785 00:37:58,200 --> 00:37:56,140 against a quack with a TGA yeah so there 786 00:38:01,200 --> 00:37:58,210 will be an article on our website very 787 00:38:04,470 --> 00:38:01,210 soon but in even until that's their 788 00:38:09,030 --> 00:38:04,480 people can write an email to support Ken 789 00:38:11,069 --> 00:38:09,040 at skeptics comte ory you and send their 790 00:38:12,960 --> 00:38:11,079 name their email of course phone number 791 00:38:14,460 --> 00:38:12,970 and the amount they're pledging to pay 792 00:38:17,640 --> 00:38:14,470 they don't have no payment is required 793 00:38:19,920 --> 00:38:17,650 right now but people should pledge the 794 00:38:22,200 --> 00:38:19,930 amount they're willing to pay to support 795 00:38:24,870 --> 00:38:22,210 ken and if the need arises we will 796 00:38:27,359 --> 00:38:24,880 contact people and ask them to pay when 797 00:38:29,720 --> 00:38:27,369 the time comes as ken harvey of course 798 00:38:32,520 --> 00:38:29,730 does a lot of work behind the scenes 799

00:47:36,280 --> 00:47:33,140 background and you would not really a 1003 00:47:38,200 --> 00:47:36,290 baby care practice if you're just going 1004 00:47:40,900 --> 00:47:38,210 to see a chiropractor which most people 1005 00:47:43,330 --> 00:47:40,910 think is another form of medicine man 1006 00:47:46,570 --> 00:47:43,340 Joe more the physiotherapy you Anson and 1007 00:47:48,640 --> 00:47:46,580 so on you're completely oblivious to all 1008 00:47:52,150 --> 00:47:48,650 of this and you just have no idea and 1009 00:47:54,490 --> 00:47:52,160 even as a skeptic who's reading this 1010 00:47:57,160 --> 00:47:54,500 stuff and learning about it I still find 1011 00:47:59,140 --> 00:47:57,170 there is a real difficulty in knowing if 1012 00:48:01,030 --> 00:47:59,150 I aside from when I go into a particular 1013 00:48:03,250 --> 00:48:01,040 chiropractors website and I can clearly 1014 00:48:06,580 --> 00:48:03,260 see what they're offering and I have 1015 00:48:08,260 --> 00:48:06,590 seen a few recently you have gotten 1016 00:48:10,540 --> 00:48:08,270 nothing on there that I find suspicious 1017 00:48:12,700 --> 00:48:10,550 nothing that it remotely makes me 1018 00:48:14,740 --> 00:48:12,710 concerned or that rings my alarm bells 1019 00:48:16,210 --> 00:48:14,750 it very much looks to me like there 1020 00:48:19,930 --> 00:48:16,220 might as well just call themselves a 1021 00:48:22,240 --> 00:48:19,940 physio so you know it's just not 1022 00:48:24,670 --> 00:48:22,250 remotely anything worrying but it's 1023 00:48:26,530 --> 00:48:24,680 still you have this feeling of unease of 1024 00:48:28,420 --> 00:48:26,540 is this just the way they're presenting 1025 00:48:30,160 --> 00:48:28,430 themselves what is underlying it and I 1026 00:48:32,260 --> 00:48:30,170 think that as a profession if they're 1027 00:48:33,970 --> 00:48:32,270 going to have any credibility they have 1028 00:48:36,760 --> 00:48:33,980 to completely cut themselves off from 1029 00:48:39,100 --> 00:48:36,770 this schism that's what need to do yeah 1030 00:48:40,990 --> 00:48:39,110 Reformation may well say yeah a friend 1031 00:48:41,670 --> 00:48:41,000 of mine went to a chiropractor the other 1032 00:48:44,099 --> 00:48:41,680 day who gave me 1033 00:48:46,349 --> 00:48:44,109 adventure for half-price consultation 1034 00:48:49,829 --> 00:48:46,359 and he went anything they kind of 1035 00:48:51,750 --> 00:48:49,839 conduct by the way he got a little back 1036 00:48:53,579 --> 00:48:51,760 massage he thing he's a rock climber so 1037 00:48:55,640 --> 00:48:53,589 he has a bit of back issues I used to be 1038 00:48:58,380 --> 00:48:55,650 rock climb on myself I understand them 1039 00:49:00,000 --> 00:48:58,390 um so you got his little little back 1040 00:49:01,710 --> 00:49:00,010 massage thing and he came outside and 1041 00:49:07,470 --> 00:49:01,720 noticed on the receptionist desk some 1042 00:49:08,940 --> 00:49:07,480 leaflets from the AVM well I think what 1043 00:49:10,349 --> 00:49:08,950 you're saying it sounds to me like what 1044 00:49:14,190 --> 00:49:10,359 they need is all the Reformation they 1045 00:49:15,450 --> 00:49:14,200 need the sack of Rome do you know I mean 1046 00:49:17,010 --> 00:49:15,460 I've been doing some work with a 1047 00:49:18,960 --> 00:49:17,020 journalist on this particular issue 1048 00:49:23,099 --> 00:49:18,970 which is actually Kyra crackers and 1049 00:49:25,980 --> 00:49:23,109 antibiotics and when he he's asked a 1050 00:49:28,349 --> 00:49:25,990 couple of them because some of them are 1051 00:49:30,900 --> 00:49:28,359 professional members of avian and their 1052 00:49:32,190 --> 00:49:30,910 response is oh we just subscribe to the 1053 00:49:34,190 --> 00:49:32,200

00:49:40,799 --> 00:49:38,559 one forever that's it but in addition 1057 00:49:46,579 --> 00:49:40,809 I'll know another journalist who asked 1058 00:49:49,530 --> 00:49:46,589 the head of the sea CA of CAA Australia 1059 00:49:50,940 --> 00:49:49,540 in an interview he did with him if he 1060 00:49:52,770 --> 00:49:50,950 was if his children have been vaccinated 1061 00:49:56,520 --> 00:49:52,780 and he would not answer the question 1062 00:49:59,400 --> 00:49:56,530 yeah Tony Blair did that yeah but also 1063 00:50:01,620 --> 00:49:59,410 he's a nut here's one for our listeners 1064 00:50:03,450 --> 00:50:01,630 if any listener knows what the Green 1065 00:50:05,640 --> 00:50:03,460 Party in Australia the Greens their 1066 00:50:07,620 --> 00:50:05,650 official position on vaccination is or 1067 00:50:09,210 --> 00:50:07,630 Bob Brown let us know we know we know 1068 00:50:11,010 --> 00:50:09,220 the party's position the party's 1069 00:50:14,670 --> 00:50:11,020 position is pro vaccination but Bob 1070 00:50:17,430 --> 00:50:14,680 Brown himself he's read out some pro ADM 1071 00:50:23,280 --> 00:50:17,440 material in hand side I think about six 1072 00:50:25,559 --> 00:50:23,290 years ago me oh it's not easy I know but 1073 00:50:28,410 --> 00:50:25,569 the party is probe ex roem still hasn't 1074 00:50:29,730 --> 00:50:28,420 okay okay listen Ollie and party and 1075 00:50:30,820 --> 00:50:29,740 there was also the fact that there was 1076 00:50:34,420 --> 00:50:30,830 um 1077 00:50:36,400 --> 00:50:34,430 that anti vex book which which his his 1078 00:50:39,640 --> 00:50:36,410 name was attached to a little you know 1079 00:50:42,370 --> 00:50:39,650 review that was promoting this book so 1080 00:50:44,290 --> 00:50:42,380 you know I think his position more it 1081 00:50:46,090 --> 00:50:44,300 needs to be oh that's Australian 1082 00:50:47,890 --> 00:50:46,100 politics for the other thing is about 1083 00:50:51,130 --> 00:50:47,900 going back to Cairo crackers is that 1084 00:50:53,950 --> 00:50:51,140 they and this has been documented 1085 00:50:55,090 --> 00:50:53,960 somewhere somebody found it recently was 1086 00:50:57,130 --> 00:50:55,100 I think it might have been Loretta 1087 00:50:59,350 --> 00:50:57,140 actually they have this business model 1088 00:51:00,880 --> 00:50:59,360 where they they set up things like first 1089 00:51:02,860 --> 00:51:00,890 visit is health price and then they give 1090 00:51:05,230 --> 00:51:02,870 you six visits for you know 100 like 1091 00:51:07,150 --> 00:51:05,240 however much money that is against their 1092 00:51:08,680 --> 00:51:07,160 code of conduct explicitly against the 1093 00:51:11,830 --> 00:51:08,690 code of conduct because that's over 1094 00:51:13,060 --> 00:51:11,840 servicing but they so didn't do it but 1095 00:51:15,610 --> 00:51:13,070 it's what the entire profession was 1096 00:51:18,780 --> 00:51:15,620 based on originally when they when they 1097 00:51:21,730 --> 00:51:18,790 came up against the AMA in you know the 1098 00:51:23,920 --> 00:51:21,740 1930s or whenever it was that whole 1099 00:51:27,010 --> 00:51:23,930 thing of setting themselves up as almost 1100 00:51:29,830 --> 00:51:27,020 like a Salesman model rather than as a 1101 00:51:31,660 --> 00:51:29,840 medical model was how they survived it 1102 00:51:33,670 --> 00:51:31,670 was how they promoted themselves it was 1103 00:51:34,900 --> 00:51:33,680 my yeah I know but it's now against 1104 00:51:38,520 --> 00:51:34,910 their code of conduct and they're still 1105 00:51:40,900 --> 00:51:38,530 doing it it's just disgusting like pubs 1106 00:51:42,940 --> 00:51:40,910 honestly I mean real is this possible 1107 00:51:45,760 --> 00:51:42,950 just so we're eating oh you have all 1108 00:51:47,920 --> 00:51:45,770 your Swansea I'm saying it is unethical 1109 00:51:50,560 --> 00:51:47,930 to do that and pull your socks up 1110 00:51:52,000 --> 00:51:50,570 honestly if you do find some 1111 00:51:54,370 --> 00:51:52,010 chiropractors who are doing that and you 1112 00:51:56,530 --> 00:51:54,380 want to report them Simon Perry has 1113
