some length six specific 275 00:11:50,910 --> 00:11:49,240 claims made in the letter including that 276 00:11:53,130 --> 00:11:50,920 immunization protects children and saves 277 00:11:55,950 --> 00:11:53,140 lives she actually critiques that and 278 00:11:57,330 --> 00:11:55,960 that it is one of the highest impact and 279 00:11:59,700 --> 00:11:57,340 most cost effective public health 280 00:12:02,400 --> 00:11:59,710 interventions and she concludes with the 281 00:12:04,680 --> 00:12:02,410 following quote the concerned global 282 00:12:06,390 --> 00:12:04,690 community would like you

by promoting the personal 286 00:12:14,160 --> 00:12:11,770 opinions of academics who have not 287 00:12:16,080 --> 00:12:14,170 studied immunization policies please 288 00:12:18,030 --> 00:12:16,090

published on 508 00:21:43,129 --> 00:21:41,220 the UW website this enabled my PhD 509 00:21:45,589 --> 00:21:43,139 thesis to be disparaged by Alison Jones 510 00:21:47,110 --> 00:21:45,599 on the

00:29:04,870 discuss hypnosis in this episode of the 690 00:29:13,500 --> 00:29:11,770 cats files when I tell anyone new in my 691 00:29:15,659 --> 00:29:13,510 life that I'm a psychologist there's a 692 00:29:18,899 --> 00:29:15,669 good 50-50 chance they'll bring up Freud 693 00:29:21,419 --> 00:29:18,909 and hypnosis although i'm not fond of 694 00:29:23,460 --> 00:29:21,429 that topic it is still marginally better 695 00:29:28,169 --> 00:29:23,470 than the old does that mean you can read 696 00:29:29,760 --> 00:29:28,179 my mind yes that joke is old folks well 697 00:29:31,260 --> 00:29:29,770 and that explains why I tell people I'm 698 00:29:33,810 --> 00:29:31,270 a psychometrician there's just no 699 00:29:37,560 --> 00:29:33,820 comeback for that but anyhow back to 700 00:29:39,960 --> 00:29:37,570 Freud and hypnosis first Freud is a side 701 00:29:41,639 --> 00:29:39,970 step off of psychology he's taught in 702 00:29:43,380 --> 00:29:41,649 basic introduction classes as part of 703 00:29:46,230 --> 00:29:43,390 our history but he's not a psychologist 704 00:29:49,139 --> 00:29:46,240 per se Freud instead founded the field 705 00:29:51,029 --> 00:29:49,149 of psychotherapy granted our two fields 706 00:29:52,580 --> 00:29:51,039 joined together for academic conventions 707 00:29:55,320 --> 00:29:52,590 and work together in private practice 708 00:29:57,870 --> 00:29:55,330 but a psychologist is technically not a 709 00:29:59,940 --> 00:29:57,880 psychotherapist and vice versa but 710 00:30:02,669 --> 00:29:59,950 really I digress what does Freud though 711 00:30:04,649 --> 00:30:02,679 have to do with hypnosis well Freud was 712 00:30:06,450 --> 00:30:04,659 for at least part of his career heavily 713 00:30:09,120 --> 00:30:06,460 involved in hypnosis and believe that 714 00:30:11,250 --> 00:30:09,130 psychoanalysis is the air of hypnosis 715 00:30:15,750 --> 00:30:11,260 which was actually founded in around 716 00:30:18,060 --> 00:30:15,760 1770 by Franz Mesmer in 1916 Freud even 717 00:30:19,710 --> 00:30:18,070 wrote quote we do not forget how much 718 00:30:22,590 --> 00:30:19,720 encouragement and theoretical 719 00:30:26,010 --> 00:30:22,600 clarification we owe to it meaning the 720 00:30:27,480 --> 00:30:26,020 field of hypnosis hypnosis is used by 721 00:30:29,700 --> 00:30:27,490 psychotherapist and even some 722 00:30:31,590 --> 00:30:29,710 psychologists in that instance the 723 00:30:33,060 --> 00:30:31,600 person usually has a masters or PhD in 724 00:30:35,070 --> 00:30:33,070 therapy and they choose to use 725 00:30:37,860 --> 00:30:35,080 hypnotherapy as one of their tools if 726 00:30:42,120 --> 00:30:37,870 the person is a hypnotherapist though 727 00:30:44,279 --> 00:30:42,130 well that's a different game you see 728 00:30:46,799 --> 00:30:44,289 hypnotherapy is a completely unregulated 729 00:30:49,169 --> 00:30:46,809 industry in both Australia and in the 730 00:30:50,580 --> 00:30:49,179 u.s. they have their own licensing body 731 00:30:52,680 --> 00:30:50,590 in their own system of providing 732 00:30:54,690 --> 00:30:52,690 accreditation to programs the same 733 00:30:57,299 --> 00:30:54,700 programs that a lot of clinical and 734 00:30:59,220 --> 00:30:57,309 psychotherapist practitioners take no 735 00:31:01,470 --> 00:30:59,230 post-secondary degrees actually required 736 00:31:03,139 --> 00:31:01,480 into the programs according to the 737 00:31:05,159 --> 00:31:03,149 American Association of Professional 738 00:31:06,960 --> 00:31:05,169 hypnotherapists quote in the United 739 00:31:09,389 --> 00:31:06,970 States hypnotherapy is an unregulated 740 00:31:09,880 --> 00:31:09,399 profession some would say it's a self 741 00:31:12,100 --> 00:31:09,890 regular 742 00:31:14,500 --> 00:31:12,110 profession meaning you do not require a 743 00:31:17,350 --> 00:31:14,510 license to offer provide and charge for 744 00:31:19,870 --> 00:31:17,360 hypnotherapy services for the skeptical 745 00:31:21,520 --> 00:31:19,880 movement that's a serious red flag but 746 00:31:23,620 --> 00:31:21,530 in this case and in the right clinical 747 00:31:26,590 --> 00:31:23,630 practice that red is a bit more of a 748 00:31:28,600 --> 00:31:26,600 pink you see hypnosis has been shown to 749 00:31:30,340 --> 00:31:28,610 be somewhat effective at least for pain 750 00:31:32,440 --> 00:31:30,350 management and potentially fatigue and 751 00:31:34,450 --> 00:31:32,450 anxiety but the evidence just isn't 752 00:31:36,280 --> 00:31:34,460 there for smoking cessation or even 753 00:31:38,140 --> 00:31:36,290 weight loss funny enough though those 754 00:31:41,200 --> 00:31:38,150 are the two most advertised purposes of 755 00:31:42,760 --> 00:31:41,210 hypnosis now I'd be remiss if I didn't 756 00:31:45,100 --> 00:31:42,770 say that repressed memories and past 757 00:31:47,320 --> 00:31:45,110 lives are not a thing and there are no 758 00:31:49,150 --> 00:31:47,330 rampant satanic cults roaming the US 759 00:31:51,630 --> 00:31:49,160 country side no matter what a bunch of 760 00:31:55,600 --> 00:31:51,640 hypnotherapists in the 80s and 90s said 761 00:31:56,860 --> 00:31:55,610 so though what is hypnosis according to 762 00:32:00,040 --> 00:31:56,870 the good old Oxford English Dictionary 763 00:32:02,380 --> 00:32:00,050 hypnosis is quote the induction of a 764 00:32:04,630 --> 00:32:02,390 state of consciousness in which a person 765 00:32:07,180 --> 00:32:04,640 apparently loses the power of voluntary 766 00:32:10,810 --> 00:32:07,190 action and is highly responsive to 767 00:32:12,880 --> 00:32:10,820 suggestion or direction in quote by pure 768 00:32:16,210 --> 00:32:12,890 definition hypnosis is at least 769 00:32:18,490 --> 00:32:16,220 partially possible individuals in high 770 00:32:21,100 --> 00:32:18,500 states of duress or fatigue are easily 771 00:32:24,100 --> 00:32:21,110 suggestible and some have even said that 772 00:32:26,020 --> 00:32:24,110 their actions were involuntary remember 773 00:32:27,790 --> 00:32:26,030 back to the story of Patty Hearst the 774 00:32:29,650 --> 00:32:27,800 idea of Stockholm Syndrome are the 775 00:32:31,240 --> 00:32:29,660 myriad of false police confessions 776 00:32:34,540 --> 00:32:31,250 elicited through manipulation and 777 00:32:35,740 --> 00:32:34,550 fatigue it happens and those experience 778 00:32:38,050 --> 00:32:35,750 at least partially matched the 779 00:32:40,300 --> 00:32:38,060 definition of hypnosis the person is 780 00:32:42,670 --> 00:32:40,310 under extraordinary duress they 781 00:32:44,380 --> 00:32:42,680 apparently lose their own power of will 782 00:32:47,170 --> 00:32:44,390 and voluntary action and then they are 783 00:32:49,410 --> 00:32:47,180 highly responsive to the suggestion or 784 00:32:52,930 --> 00:32:49,420 direction given to them by an outsider 785 00:32:55,390 --> 00:32:52,940 the problem though is to specific 786 00:32:57,160 --> 00:32:55,400 aspects of the definition first is this 787 00:33:00,460 --> 00:32:57,170 altered state of consciousness and 788 00:33:03,460 --> 00:33:00,470 second is the loss of voluntary action 789 00:33:05,380 --> 00:33:03,470 thus far hypnotherapist failed to 790 00:33:08,020 --> 00:33:05,390 provide scientific evidence that either 791 00:33:10,000 --> 00:33:08,030 actually happen we don't even really 792 00:33:12,430 --> 00:33:10,010 have a definition for altered state of 793 00:33:15,100 --> 00:33:12,440 consciousness and loss of voluntary 794 00:33:17,380 --> 00:33:15,110 action is a very easy cop-out when you 795 00:33:19,900 --> 00:33:17,390 do something you shouldn't have if we 796 00:33:22,480 --> 00:33:19,910 change the definition though to exclude 797 00:33:23,560 --> 00:33:22,490 those two problematic aspects we have a 798 00:33:26,050 --> 00:33:23,570 phenomenon that 799 00:33:28,450 --> 00:33:26,060 search has already shown exists this 800 00:33:30,670 --> 00:33:28,460 would make hypnotherapy kind of a mental 801 00:33:32,320 --> 00:33:30,680 placebo and that there was little to no 802 00:33:34,450 --> 00:33:32,330 difference between actually being 803 00:33:37,480 --> 00:33:34,460 hypnotized or just pretending or 804 00:33:40,720 --> 00:33:37,490 thinking you were hypnotized it is a 805 00:33:43,360 --> 00:33:40,730 very interesting concept in the end 806 00:33:45,040 --> 00:33:43,370 though if hypnosis actually induced the 807 00:33:47,110 --> 00:33:45,050 defined state of consciousness and the 808 00:33:50,130 --> 00:33:47,120 individual lost voluntary control of 809 00:33:52,810 --> 00:33:50,140 their actions is it even ethical is 810 00:33:56,230 --> 00:33:52,820 forcing an individual to take direction 811 00:33:57,610 --> 00:33:56,240 involuntary ethical at all wouldn't it 812 00:34:00,010 --> 00:33:57,620 be better than to change the definition 813 00:34:02,470 --> 00:34:00,020 to match an already known phenomenon and 814 00:34:04,600 --> 00:34:02,480 openly embrace them until Placido I 815 00:34:06,730 --> 00:34:04,610 suppose that's a

00:36:53,240 you that you may not like to introduce 874 00:37:02,260 --> 00:36:55,250 our guest reporter our guest editorial 875 00:37:04,750 --> 00:37:02,270 reporter cigna dinging everybody now hi 876 00:37:07,960 --> 00:37:04,760 I'm cigna Dean I'm probably one of those 877 00:37:10,050 --> 00:37:07,970 well-placed journalists in the skeptics 878 00:37:13,390 --> 00:37:10,060 humble worried that they know about that 879 00:37:15,570 --> 00:37:13,400 tonight I'm not a journalist here I'm 880 00:37:19,180 --> 00:37:15,580 just a member of the skeptic committee 881 00:37:22,600 --> 00:37:19,190 but my report is a little bit about some 882 00:37:24,940 --> 00:37:22,610 experiences I have had recently in the 883 00:37:28,120 --> 00:37:24,950 cross section between skepticism and 884 00:37:29,500 --> 00:37:28,130 journalism so the story oh yeah and 885 00:37:31,120 --> 00:37:29,510 because it's a bit of a radio play 886 00:37:33,970 --> 00:37:31,130 element Richard will be helping me out a 887 00:37:37,090 --> 00:37:33,980 bit later on so the story here basically 888 00:37:39,520 --> 00:37:37,100 starts with my really amazing dentist 889 00:37:41,470 --> 00:37:39,530 I'm talking about her because she's 890 00:37:44,650 --> 00:37:41,480 great she's super professional she's 891 00:37:46,360 --> 00:37:44,660 very good at fixing my teeth and thanks 892 00:37:47,890 --> 00:37:46,370 to her diagnostic skills I also 893 00:37:49,360 --> 00:37:47,900 discovered that the reason I have 894 00:37:51,310 --> 00:37:49,370 mystery headaches for like years and 895 00:37:54,370 --> 00:37:51,320 years is because I grind my teeth at 896 00:37:56,680 --> 00:37:54,380 night I also think my dentist is nice 897 00:37:58,960 --> 00:37:56,690 because she doesn't make fun of me I 898 00:38:02,410 --> 00:37:58,970 thought she would when I broke my tooth 899 00:38:05,080 --> 00:38:02,420 on a skittle and landed in her chair not 900 00:38:06,730 --> 00:38:05,090 long after I had broken a different 901 00:38:08,170 --> 00:38:06,740 tooth on a piece of pork crackling 902 00:38:10,330 --> 00:38:08,180 although I was eating a delicious 903 00:38:14,050 --> 00:38:10,340 vietnamese salad so it was kind of worth 904 00:38:15,880 --> 00:38:14,060 it so of course being a dentist she does 905 00:38:18,070 --> 00:38:15,890 charge a lot of money so I'm sure she 906 00:38:22,420 --> 00:38:18,080 doesn't entirely mind that my teeth are 907 00:38:25,090 --> 00:38:22,430 just so ridiculously bad but she has 908 00:38:27,910 --> 00:38:25,100 also told me that if I had been exposed 909 00:38:29,710 --> 00:38:27,920 to more fluoride in my childhood chewing 910 00:38:31,960 --> 00:38:29,720 and hard foods wouldn't be so dramatic 911 00:38:33,730 --> 00:38:31,970 and scary as it is to mean these days 912 00:38:36,640 --> 00:38:33,740 for example just don't offer meat pork 913 00:38:38,620 --> 00:38:36,650 crackling the thing is I didn't grow up 914 00:38:42,700 --> 00:38:38,630 here in Australia I grew up in Latvia 915 00:38:44,590 --> 00:38:42,710 and in Latvia water fluoridation is not 916 00:38:47,350 --> 00:38:44,600 really a thing or at least it wasn't 917 00:38:49,600 --> 00:38:47,360 back when I was growing up there and on 918 00:38:51,640 --> 00:38:49,610 top of that I also failed the genetic 919 00:38:54,040 --> 00:38:51,650 lottery so it just means that mighty 920 00:38:55,660 --> 00:38:54,050 side just generally just brittle the 921 00:38:57,580 --> 00:38:55,670 enamels really weak they're just not 922 00:39:00,310 --> 00:38:57,590 that great to begin with plus no 923 00:39:02,410 --> 00:39:00,320 fluoride now over the 924 00:39:05,110 --> 00:39:02,420 past two years I've broken a tooth four 925 00:39:07,270 --> 00:39:05,120 times in total and I lost one of them so 926 00:39:08,710 --> 00:39:07,280 they're really bad and that's why I'm so 927 00:39:11,650 --> 00:39:08,720 grateful that my dentist doesn't make 928 00:39:14,920 --> 00:39:11,660 fun of me as you can imagine slowly 929 00:39:16,450 --> 00:39:14,930 losing my teeth before I'm even 30 has 930 00:39:19,990 --> 00:39:16,460 been pretty stressful and pretty 931 00:39:21,850 --> 00:39:20,000 expensive so that's why I really love 932 00:39:23,980 --> 00:39:21,860 the joke that anti fluoridation 933 00:39:28,240 --> 00:39:23,990 activists are actually running a racket 934 00:39:30,940 --> 00:39:28,250 for dentists you probably heard the news 935 00:39:33,520 --> 00:39:30,950 last week that Mackay Council in 936 00:39:37,000 --> 00:39:33,530 Queensland voted to stop adding fluoride 937 00:39:39,700 --> 00:39:37,010 to its drinking supply that decision was 938 00:39:42,850 --> 00:39:39,710 made with six boats against five so it's 939 00:39:44,860 --> 00:39:42,860 not totally hopeless over there but it 940 00:39:47,080 --> 00:39:44,870 was hopeless enough to make such an 941 00:39:50,590 --> 00:39:47,090 important public health decision for in 942 00:39:52,330 --> 00:39:50,600 the wrong hands basically now you most 943 00:39:54,340 --> 00:39:52,340 of you probably know that Queensland has 944 00:39:58,270 --> 00:39:54,350 had a long shoddy history with water 945 00:40:00,970 --> 00:39:58,280 fluoridation the state currently has 77 946 00:40:03,090 --> 00:40:00,980 councils three of them have naturally 947 00:40:06,340 --> 00:40:03,100 occurring fluoride so they don't need it 948 00:40:08,260 --> 00:40:06,350 24 do add fluoride to their water supply 949 00:40:10,450 --> 00:40:08,270 and thankfully that does include the 950 00:40:13,660 --> 00:40:10,460 bigger ones you know Brisbane Gulf Coast 951 00:40:16,600 --> 00:40:13,670 so that's pretty good but that still 952 00:40:18,730 --> 00:40:16,610 leaves us with 50 councils in Queensland 953 00:40:21,430 --> 00:40:18,740 that refused to add this benefit 954 00:40:22,930 --> 00:40:21,440 beneficial chemical to their water the 955 00:40:25,240 --> 00:40:22,940 reason for that is basically because 956 00:40:27,870 --> 00:40:25,250 it's just not compulsory over there so 957 00:40:30,700 --> 00:40:27,880 you think it's a paradise for dentists 958 00:40:32,080 --> 00:40:30,710 however if you read the media you'll 959 00:40:35,320 --> 00:40:32,090 notice the dentist's over there 960 00:40:37,240 --> 00:40:35,330 regularly a going to the media asking 961 00:40:39,250 --> 00:40:37,250 for mandatory fluoridation statewide 962 00:40:41,530 --> 00:40:39,260 like they don't want this to be 963 00:40:43,920 --> 00:40:41,540 happening apparently kids dental health 964 00:40:46,810 --> 00:40:43,930 rates are pretty appalling in Queensland 965 00:40:49,570 --> 00:40:46,820 now mckays council decision is 966 00:40:51,610 --> 00:40:49,580 especially bizarre because just three 967 00:40:53,410 --> 00:40:51,620 weeks ago we heard from the National 968 00:40:57,010 --> 00:40:53,420 Health and Medical Research Council or 969 00:41:00,520 --> 00:40:57,020 NHMRC for short on this very same issue 970 00:41:02,530 --> 00:41:00,530 of water fluoridation they on the 42 971 00:41:04,330 --> 00:41:02,540 September they release the latest draft 972 00:41:06,700 --> 00:41:04,340 paper on the health effects of water 973 00:41:08,680 --> 00:41:06,710 fluoridation and here's the research 974 00:41:11,890 --> 00:41:08,690 councils take home message from that 975 00:41:13,960 --> 00:41:11,900 paper and I quote the findings add to a 976 00:41:16,270 --> 00:41:13,970 long history of research that shows 977 00:41:18,880 --> 00:41:16,280 water fluoridation helps to reduce to 978 00:41:20,589 --> 00:41:18,890 decay in children and adults this 979 00:41:22,630 --> 00:41:20,599 current review shows that community 980 00:41:25,990 --> 00:41:22,640 water fluoridation within the current 981 00:41:28,240 --> 00:41:26,000 Australian range does not cause harm so 982 00:41:29,920 --> 00:41:28,250 that's what the NHMRC is saying now 983 00:41:33,190 --> 00:41:29,930 being a science reporter and a 984 00:41:35,109 --> 00:41:33,200 journalist I used this news to write a 985 00:41:38,020 --> 00:41:35,119 quick article on it to be a science 986 00:41:39,670 --> 00:41:38,030 about why fluoridation is deemed safe so 987 00:41:41,650 --> 00:41:39,680 basically and explain our source that 988 00:41:43,450 --> 00:41:41,660 people can share facebook and read and 989 00:41:46,630 --> 00:41:43,460 maybe get a bit of a background Anisha 990 00:41:49,599 --> 00:41:46,640 and here's a comment on facebook that I 991 00:41:52,540 --> 00:41:49,609 received from that article it is more 992 00:41:55,120 --> 00:41:52,550 than clear in the science I studied and 993 00:41:59,460 --> 00:41:55,130 peer-reviewed papers that this toxin 994 00:42:01,870 --> 00:41:59,470 must be removed from the water supply so 995 00:42:04,870 --> 00:42:01,880 according to the latest eligible 996 00:42:07,089 --> 00:42:04,880 literature review by NHMRC adding 997 00:42:09,550 --> 00:42:07,099 fluoride to drinking water reduces to 998 00:42:12,130 --> 00:42:09,560 decay by twenty six to forty four 999 00:42:14,859 --> 00:42:12,140 percent in children teenagers and adult 1000 00:42:16,599 --> 00:42:14,869 you can get mild fluorosis which is a 1001 00:42:18,280 --> 00:42:16,609 thing people often complain about when 1002 00:42:20,950 --> 00:42:18,290 they think about fluoride that's you get 1003 00:42:22,540 --> 00:42:20,960 those white streaks on your teeth but 1004 00:42:24,700 --> 00:42:22,550 that does not affect their function and 1005 00:42:26,440 --> 00:42:24,710 there are ways to avoid fluorosis before 1006 00:42:28,990 --> 00:42:26,450 it happens so basically fluoride 1007 00:42:31,510 --> 00:42:29,000 harmless but fear not here's another 1008 00:42:33,570 --> 00:42:31,520 comment on facebook on that article on 1009 00:42:37,270 --> 00:42:33,580 how fluoridation is perfectly safe 1010 00:42:39,849 --> 00:42:37,280 fluoride is a neurotoxin do you even 1011 00:42:45,630 --> 00:42:39,859 understand what that is if you don't 1012 00:42:50,579 --> 00:42:48,450 again according to the research council 1013 00:42:53,130 --> 00:42:50,589 who actually know how to evaluate 1014 00:42:56,759 --> 00:42:53,140 evidence water fluoridation has no 1015 00:42:59,579 --> 00:42:56,769 association with IQ or cancer or down 1016 00:43:01,920 --> 00:42:59,589 syndrome or mortality or hip fractures 1017 00:43:05,400 --> 00:43:01,930 or bone cancers that's all in that draft 1018 00:43:08,430 --> 00:43:05,410 paper it's listed there starting with IQ 1019 00:43:09,779 --> 00:43:08,440 because fluoride you know according to 1020 00:43:12,480 --> 00:43:09,789 that previous comment is apparently 1021 00:43:14,309 --> 00:43:12,490 making us all he did but what does the 1022 00:43:16,710 --> 00:43:14,319 concern public think about that here's 1023 00:43:19,230 --> 00:43:16,720 another one why has fluoride in drinking 1024 00:43:21,599 --> 00:43:19,240 water being banned across Europe so it's 1025 00:43:22,890 --> 00:43:21,609 a different person yeah it's a different 1026 00:43:25,500 --> 00:43:22,900 person each side these are all different 1027 00:43:28,049 --> 00:43:25,510 people everyone and also this person 1028 00:43:31,170 --> 00:43:28,059 spelt it flour right it's a common 1029 00:43:33,480 --> 00:43:31,180 origin why has flour riding drinking 1030 00:43:37,289 --> 00:43:33,490 water being banned across Europe yeah um 1031 00:43:39,180 --> 00:43:37,299 it hasn't let's move on the research 1032 00:43:41,549 --> 00:43:39,190 council points out in the draft paper 1033 00:43:43,529 --> 00:43:41,559 that floor I data drinking water is not 1034 00:43:47,279 --> 00:43:43,539 considered a therapeutic good or a 1035 00:43:50,160 --> 00:43:47,289 medicine by that by our own TGA you bet 1036 00:43:52,890 --> 00:43:50,170 there was a comment about that too what 1037 00:43:54,859 --> 00:43:52,900 drug ever is administered by putting it 1038 00:43:57,539 --> 00:43:54,869 in the drinking water again not a drug 1039 00:44:00,420 --> 00:43:57,549 how do you possibly control how much is 1040 00:44:04,680 --> 00:44:00,430 consumed poor pharmacology poor 1041 00:44:07,559 --> 00:44:04,690 reporting unfollowing usps sorry to see 1042 00:44:09,299 --> 00:44:07,569 them go so even medical researchers 1043 00:44:11,759 --> 00:44:09,309 scrutinize all the available evidence 1044 00:44:13,589 --> 00:44:11,769 and declare that there are no adverse 1045 00:44:15,839 --> 00:44:13,599 health effects for Australians drinking 1046 00:44:18,900 --> 00:44:15,849 fluoridated water you will still get 1047 00:44:20,999 --> 00:44:18,910 people who also say this the flu ride 1048 00:44:23,849 --> 00:44:21,009 added to our water supply is not the 1049 00:44:28,230 --> 00:44:23,859 naturally occurring kind it is the waste 1050 00:44:30,960 --> 00:44:28,240 product often sourced from China outrage 1051 00:44:32,999 --> 00:44:30,970 why didn't they uncovered this in my you 1052 00:44:35,670 --> 00:44:33,009 know highly difficult research writing 1053 00:44:38,069 --> 00:44:35,680 this article as with any good public 1054 00:44:40,230 --> 00:44:38,079 health can sport conspiracy it's obvious 1055 00:44:42,230 --> 00:44:40,240 we can't make people love fluoride by 1056 00:44:45,059 --> 00:44:42,240 presenting them with more evidence 1057 00:44:47,339 --> 00:44:45,069 especially when they seem to only read 1058 00:44:50,279 --> 00:44:47,349 the headline on Facebook and start 1059 00:44:52,289 --> 00:44:50,289 furiously typing in the comment box so 1060 00:44:54,779 --> 00:44:52,299 that's why my personal favorite comment 1061 00:44:56,640 --> 00:44:54,789 under that article was this one the 1062 00:44:58,710 --> 00:44:56,650 people worried about fluoride poisoning 1063 00:45:03,950 --> 00:44:58,720 are more likely to suffer from 1064 00:45:09,750 --> 00:45:07,020 so can we curating for a hat syndrome 1065 00:45:17,130 --> 00:45:09,760 with science unfortunately probably not 1066 00:45:19,200 --> 00:45:17,140 thank

00:49:18,260 are we going to refer back to earlier in 1153 00:49:21,400 --> 00:49:19,400 the show where we were having a bit of a 1154 00:49:22,540 --> 00:49:21,410 chat about vaccinations there and it's 1155 00:49:25,270 --> 00:49:22,550 mentioned that it's one of the great 1156 00:49:26,860 --> 00:49:25,280 public health initiatives of our time is 1157 00:49:29,380 --> 00:49:26,870 that is that your public stance on it do 1158 00:49:31,150 --> 00:49:29,390 you ever let anyone do you ever sign a 1159 00:49:33,070 --> 00:49:31,160 thing that says that they cannot have 1160 00:49:34,510 --> 00:49:33,080 vaccinations when they ask for in your 1161 00:49:37,390 --> 00:49:34,520 office one thing of the modern day 1162 00:49:41,110 --> 00:49:37,400 plumbing vaccinations really second to 1163 00:49:43,870 --> 00:49:41,120 helping the civilization I did have a 1164 00:49:47,140 --> 00:49:43,880 patient who came in for the first time 1165 00:49:49,690 --> 00:49:47,150 at the clinic wanting me to sign a form 1166 00:49:51,970 --> 00:49:49,700 for children to make them exempt from 1167 00:49:53,380 --> 00:49:51,980 getting vaccinations I've never met them 1168 00:49:55,480 --> 00:49:53,390 before I've never actually seen his 1169 00:49:57,670 --> 00:49:55,490 children before but they wanted me to 1170 00:50:02,830 --> 00:49:57,680 sign the form to say they don't need 1171 00:50:05,050 --> 00:50:02,840 their jams and so I asked what grounds 1172 00:50:06,370 --> 00:50:05,060 he had to novaks tomatoes children 1173 00:50:08,710 --> 00:50:06,380 wondering if they had a medical 1174 00:50:11,500 --> 00:50:08,720 condition and he said no it's it's a 1175 00:50:13,680 --> 00:50:11,510 it's just because I don't want to I said 1176 00:50:16,600 --> 00:50:13,690 well that's not considered to be 1177 00:50:18,790 --> 00:50:16,610 relevant at the moment you still need to 1178 00:50:20,170 --> 00:50:18,800 protect your children do you like this 1179 00:50:22,960 --> 00:50:20,180 or any other reason because odds because 1180 00:50:25,690 --> 00:50:22,970 of religious views so what what 1181 00:50:30,070 --> 00:50:25,700 religious views do you have is like all 1182 00:50:32,590 --> 00:50:30,080 my family's religious views on what 1183 00:50:34,960 --> 00:50:32,600 religion does your family have and and 1184 00:50:36,460 --> 00:50:34,970 he just didn't like just jump from the 1185 00:50:38,320 --> 00:50:36,470 topic and said you can't tell me that 1186 00:50:40,570 --> 00:50:38,330 there aren't any Muslims out there that 1187 00:50:43,630 --> 00:50:40,580 don't like vaccinate their children or 1188 00:50:45,900 --> 00:50:43,640 forced to do it okay wouldn't it be a 1189 00:50:48,599 --> 00:50:45,910 way to being racist and we do 1190 00:50:51,270 --> 00:50:48,609 religious but but also like there is no 1191 00:50:53,039 --> 00:50:51,280 reason in the Muslim religion to not 1192 00:50:56,730 --> 00:50:53,049 vaccinate your children it's really 1193 00:51:00,450 --> 00:50:56,740 important to do that and so I decided 1194 00:51:02,099 --> 00:51:00,460 that I would sign this form I'm angry at 1195 00:51:05,309 --> 00:51:02,109 me didn't even say what religion he was 1196 00:51:06,720 --> 00:51:05,319 no no oh I hope he's going to say 1197 00:51:08,849 --> 00:51:06,730 Catholic and you'd say well can you just 1198 00:51:10,859 --> 00:51:08,859 explain transubstantiation for me like 1199 00:51:13,559 --> 00:51:10,869 Madden and then i'll happily sign 1200 00:51:16,230 --> 00:51:13,569 whatever you want no so no religion 1201 00:51:17,849 --> 00:51:16,240 whatsoever so long yes i said well i 1202 00:51:20,730 --> 00:51:17,859 think that you're a danger to children 1203 00:51:22,410 --> 00:51:20,740 and evidently to society and so I think 1204 00:51:29,640 --> 00:51:22,420 they're actually sign your form and 1205 00:51:31,260 --> 00:51:29,650 confusion in vaccinating children to see 1206 00:51:38,549 --> 00:51:31,270 near the clinic

strange 1304 00:55:37,790 --> 00:55:35,260 ideas about the universe 1305 00:55:42,660 --> 00:55:37,800 my friends who I was camping with is 1306 00:55:46,740 --> 00:55:42,670 dancing or so I'm so she being a dancing 1307 00:55:48,450 --> 00:55:46,750 Oracle she uh she gets people to ask her 1308 00:55:50,340 --> 00:55:48,460 questions about their life for the 1309 00:55:52,350 --> 00:55:50,350 universe she's like a human tarot card 1310 00:55:54,690 --> 00:55:52,360 and by looking at her you can say i'm 1311 00:55:56,580 --> 00:55:54,700 going to have bone problems when i got 1312 00:55:59,040 --> 00:55:56,590 all those another girl you ask her a 1313 00:56:01,080 --> 00:55:59,050 question and then she will just stand in 1314 00:56:04,140 --> 00:56:01,090 front of you and then she will let the 1315 00:56:06,930 --> 00:56:04,150 universe talk through her and she dances 1316 00:56:08,460 --> 00:56:06,940 and then you just watch her dance and 1317 00:56:11,450 --> 00:56:08,470 then deliver the drive she'll tell me 1318 00:56:13,890 --> 00:56:11,460 were you interpret that and then you can 1319 00:56:16,080 --> 00:56:13,900 understand or come to a conclusion about 1320 00:56:19,260 --> 00:56:16,090 that question that you asked her just 1321 00:56:21,450 --> 00:56:19,270 from watching her and she has invented 1322 00:56:23,070 --> 00:56:21,460 something that psychics on the 1323 00:56:25,230 --> 00:56:23,080 particular on the one that they've 1324 00:56:27,780 --> 00:56:25,240 completely bypassed actually having to 1325 00:56:29,820 --> 00:56:27,790 lie they can just say nothing and stand 1326 00:56:32,490 --> 00:56:29,830 there that's a very pleasurable nation 1327 00:56:35,970 --> 00:56:32,500 as a market for that so if anybody wants 1328 00:56:38,460 --> 00:56:35,980 to learn the old or chapter could be 1329 00:56:43,410 --> 00:56:38,470 fine but yeah she was also talking about 1330 00:56:44,760 --> 00:56:43,420 her birth as well and she's she was up 1331 00:56:46,170 --> 00:56:44,770 she's very disgruntled because 1332 00:56:49,320 --> 00:56:46,180 apparently she was having a natural 1333 00:56:51,870 --> 00:56:49,330 delivery and then she ends up saying 1334 00:56:54,090 --> 00:56:51,880 that she had an unnecessary cesarean and 1335 00:56:55,220 --> 00:56:54,100 from a doctor's point of view if you're 1336 00:56:56,810 --> 00:56:55,230 having a natural delivery 1337 00:57:01,550 --> 00:56:56,820 and then you end up having an emergency 1338 00:57:03,970 --> 00:57:01,560 cesarean it's probably necessary yeah I 1339 00:57:07,550 --> 00:57:03,980 think the key word there is emergency 1340 00:57:10,310 --> 00:57:07,560 and so answer we all know that aren't 1341 00:57:13,220 --> 00:57:10,320 that if you have a cesarean section then 1342 00:57:18,980 --> 00:57:13,230 the doctor the obstetrician cuts you 1343 00:57:21,140 --> 00:57:18,990 through your ignition like a data so 1344 00:57:24,290 --> 00:57:21,150 absurd since she's had maybe four years 1345 00:57:26,510 --> 00:57:24,300 ago I'll mature and then in her ignition 1346 00:57:30,470 --> 00:57:26,520 was cut at that time she's been really 1347 00:57:33,440 --> 00:57:30,480 sluggish to get up in the morning so 1348 00:57:36,109 --> 00:57:33,450 yeah so she she wasn't sort of talking 1349 00:57:38,660 --> 00:57:36,119 about having her child yeah nightmare my 1350 00:57:40,520 --> 00:57:38,670 Maker a little asian women to be able to 1351 00:57:42,590 --> 00:57:40,530 everyone I'm no that's ever had a kid it 1352 00:57:45,560 --> 00:57:42,600 suddenly got really sleepy for many 1353 00:57:50,090 --> 00:57:45,570 years after maybe that's what it is 1354 00:57:53,870 --> 00:57:50,100 we're a long time studies where you need 1355 00:57:57,680 --> 00:57:53,880 to check their admission but I'd like to 1356 00:57:58,970 --> 00:57:57,690 talk about drugs again because I at the 1357 00:58:01,430 --> 00:57:58,980 Burning Man festival that they're 1358 00:58:04,040 --> 00:58:01,440 experiencing psychedelics in a more 1359 00:58:05,870 --> 00:58:04,050 Shaymin type of communal way that they 1360 00:58:08,420 --> 00:58:05,880 were probably what thought to be 1361 00:58:10,010 --> 00:58:08,430 intended it's like the it's the Paleo 1362 00:58:11,420 --> 00:58:10,020 diet of drugs that they think they're 1363 00:58:12,530 --> 00:58:11,430 doing like that like they had taking 1364 00:58:16,130 --> 00:58:12,540 drugs the way they thought they might 1365 00:58:18,349 --> 00:58:16,140 have been done in yeah and and do you 1366 00:58:19,880 --> 00:58:18,359 think there's any anything in that in 1367 00:58:21,500 --> 00:58:19,890 that like they can look after each other 1368 00:58:23,150 --> 00:58:21,510 people could look at any side effects 1369 00:58:25,210 --> 00:58:23,160 and intervene or something like that or 1370 00:58:27,859 --> 00:58:25,220 do you think it's just hippie poo poo 1371 00:58:31,370 --> 00:58:27,869 venam during a discussion from 1372 00:58:33,890 --> 00:58:31,380 scientists who took mushrooms at home 1373 00:58:36,560 --> 00:58:33,900 with her husband standing beside her and 1374 00:58:37,339 --> 00:58:36,570
