This is another of the preview interviews of our FSIM conference speakers.
I knew Trish Wood’s name long ago. She was a CBC investigative journalist, and I grew up in a house with CBC on most of the day. This was back in the days when Peter Gzowski told stories that united us. When investigative reporters like Trish held the feet of government and big business to the flames. It wasn’t perfect, but it felt like a force that held Canada together rather than working to divide us.
During the first year of COVID I was down in the dumps. I couldn’t get real news anywhere. Few people were willing to openly discuss and debate the difficult issues that had arisen. I wanted to hear the other side of the story about COVID - the one that governments and their minions were obviously suppressing. The one that Pfizer and Moderna didn’t want told. Then a friend emailed me a link to one of her episodes. I was hooked and have listened to every one since.
I love the podcast format. No sound bites. No compressing a 10 minute, complex idea into a meaningless catch-phrase. Full exploration of difficult issues. I haven’t bothered listening to The News™ in several years. And I don’t miss it. I contend that people who watch mainstream news in the last several years are less and less connected to reality than those who don’t. Thank goodness for people like Trish. She gives me hope that the truth will get out there.
Trish has kindly agreed to be one of our speakers at our FreeSpeechInMedicine.com conference coming up Oct 28-30th in Baddeck, and will be helping with speaker introductions as well as moderating panel discussions. In this podcast, we talk about how Trish slid from the mainstream news into her current role as podcast host, how trust in Pfizer became a keystone of left-wing politics, and the role the media played in the very profound and disturbing changes we have seen in our society over the last few years.
