I’ve been following Dr Ken for a couple of years and have lost 70 lbs. my husband got rid of his diabetes, high blood pressure and 30 lbs. Neither of us takes any meds now, just vitamins. God Bless Dr Ken! And you too Chris for all you’ve been doing to bring the truth.

KrisMarzolf · Aug 2024

Thank you, Chris, for reminding us what a real thorough investigation looks and feels like. We get so little information from the people who call themselves “experts “. You are one of a handful of people out there earning the respect of your audience and your work is rock solid.

Quite Trippy · Jul 2024

Excellent and thoughtful analysis. Thank you for an objective view of things versus listening to the canned mainstream media voices.

Rufus1967 · Feb 2024

I started listening after searching for new investing podcasts. Well, you can imagine my surprise when the host started talking about leftist protesters being paid to be aggressive. He introduces himself as a Dr., but he consistently says “this is unsubstantiated but…” and keeps piling on more random propaganda and myths to come to a totally unhinged conclusion. If nothing else, it was an interesting insight into how the MAGA folks think. However, this content can be dangerous in the hands of folks with low critical thinking skills.

Matteatsbeans · Jun 2025

I listened to the crash course many years ago and thought it was brilliant and prescient. So as a one time fan I’m so disappointed that Chris has gone down this rabbit hole. Covid vaccines have been so helpful in protecting us. I would not want to dissuade anyone from getting vaccinated when 95% of deaths are in unvaccinated people.
