#29 – Genetically Modified Food: What It Means To Your Health (Or Sickness)

Jason Hartman — Thu, 19 Aug 2010 19:20:38 +0000

Jason talks with Jeffrey Smith from the Institute for Responsible Technology in Iowa. As an international bestselling author and independent filmmaker Jeffrey M. Smith is the leading spokesperson on the health dangers of Genetically Modified Organisms (GMOs). More at http://www.holisticsurvival.com/category/audio-podcast/ and on iTunes. His meticulously researched books and films document how the world’s most powerful Ag biotech companies bluff and mislead safety officials and critics to put the health of society at risk.

His first book Seeds of Deception: Exposing Industry and Government Lies about the Safety of the Genetically Engineered Foods You’re Eating, became the world’s best-selling and # 1 rated book on GMOs. His second book, Genetic Roulette: The Documented Health Risks of Genetically Engineered Foods, is the authoritative work on GMO health dangers. It includes 65 health dangers, linking GMOs in our food to toxic and allergic reactions, infertility, and damage to virtually every internal organ studied in lab animals. The book expertly summarizes why the safety assessments conducted by the FDA and regulators worldwide teeter on a foundation of outdated science and false assumptions, and why GM foods must urgently become our nation’s top food safety priority. Former UK environment minister says the revelations in Genetic Roulette may “change the global course of events this century.”

Mr. Smith has counseled world leaders from every continent, campaigned to end the use of genetically engineered bovine growth hormone (rbGH or rbST), and influenced the first state laws in the United States regulating GMOs. A riveting keynote speaker and popular guest on TV shows worldwide, he has lectured in 30 countries and has been quoted by government leaders and hundreds of media outlets including, The New York Times, Washington Post, BBC World Service, Huffington Post, Nature, The Independent, Daily Telegraph, New Scientist, The Times (London), Associated Press, Reuters News Service, LA Times, Time Magazine and Genetic Engineering News.

Former US National Institutes of Health scientist Candace Pert describes Jeffrey as “the leading world expert in the understanding and communication of the health issues surrounding genetically modified foods.”

Mr. Smith has united leaders to support The Campaign for Healthier Eating in America, a revolutionary industry and consumer movement to remove GMOs from the US food supply. He is the executive director of the Institute for Responsible Technology, producer of the films Hidden Dangers in Kids’ Meals and Your Milk on Drugs—Just Say No!, writes an internationally syndicated column, Spilling the Beans, has a regular blog on the popular Huffington Post, and is followed on Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube. Mr. Smith lives with his wife in Iowa, surrounded by genetically modified soybeans and corn.

The Institute also informs policy makers and the public around the world about the risks and impacts of GMOs on health, environment, agriculture, the global economy, and the problems
associated with current research, regulation, corporate practices, and reporting.

The Holistic Survival Podcast

The Holistic Survival Team — Sat, 14 Aug 2010 13:38:55 +0000

The Holistic Survival Podcast is evolving in response to what we see as a society going through extremely “uncertain” times. Uncertain is putting it mildly. We stand here in the early years of the 21st century and watch our politicians stupidly put into motion the very same economic strategies that are in the process of unraveling entire European countries. An orderly society depends upon people having food, drink, shelter, jobs and enough spending money to have a little fun every now and then.

Society is not strengthened by massive foreclosures, raging unemployment, government bailouts of fat cat corporate companies, and a cavalier attitude towards Joe and Jane Six Pack’s troubles. The bad news is we’re marching toward socialism, financial collapse or both. The good news is that you can prepare your family for any eventuality. That’s what our survival podcast is about.

At Holistic Survival, we’re aware that the disintegration of our way of life may come in bits and pieces and it may never hit rock bottom in a fighting-in-the-streets sort of way. It might start with the steady erosion of your savings, investments, and buying power through the insidious nature of inflation. Actually, there’s no “might” about it. This has been under way for a while and won’t be changing as long as the current crop of brainiac Federal politicians and economists are in charge.

Newsflash: the next decision makers, no matter their political affiliation, aren’t likely to be any better. The bottom line is that the sooner you start regularly listening to the Holistic Survival Podcast, the better your chance of protecting the people, places and profits you care about.

#25 – Survive The Plague & Our Corrupt Legal System

Jason Hartman — Fri, 07 May 2010 22:21:29 +0000

In this two part show, Jason talks with Ragnar Benson & Gary Kramer. Part one: Ragnar Benson has been Paladin Press’s most prolific author on survival and self-reliance issues. After contributing material to Paladin’s first survival compilation, The Great Survival Resource Book, in 1980, he went on to write more than 30 books for Paladin on a wide range of topics. The interview can touch on his many authored works regarding urban survival or his upcoming book regarding future pandemics. Listen at: http://www.holisticsurvival.com/category/audio-podcast/ or on iTunes.

Part two: Jason talks with Gary Kramer; a former court clerk in the Los Angeles Judicial System from 1967 to 1981. He compares the working conditions as challenging, and at times very similar to working in a mental institution. His love life is a complete disaster, and he blames the state of his personal life on working in an almost continuous setting of Murphy’s Law. If you’re not having a problem now, you probably had one not long ago, or you’ll find one around the next corner. And if something can go wrong, it probably will. A judge plays ring around the file cabinet while prodding a deputy public defender in the buttocks with a sex toy during a morning conference in the judge’s chambers. A well-known attorney stops by the judge’s chambers to have 30 traffic tickets “taken care of,” then takes the judge to lunch. Another celebrity attorney claims a judge he represents has done nothing wrong by “fixing” over a hundred of the judge’s son’s tickets. Both attorneys represented O.J. Simpson in his murder trial. Is this a joke? A new reality show? No, for this court clerk, it’s just business as usual. This is a story about my integrity, my character and my sanity being tested to its limits in a world of craziness, violence, tragedies and corruption.

#24 – The Dollar Meltdown: Surviving the Impending Currency Crisis with Unconventional Investments with Charles Goyette

Jason Hartman — Sat, 27 Mar 2010 16:55:32 +0000

Jason interviews writer and talk show host Charles Goyette. He is a libertarian commentator, who is noted for his outspoken anti-war views, his opposition to the war in Iraq and his economic commentary. Listen in: http://www.holisticsurvival.com/category/audio-podcast/. He is the author of the book The Dollar Meltdown: Surviving the Impending Currency Crisis with Gold, Oil, and Other Unconventional Investments, which Congressman Ron Paul calls “a must read,” and investor Peter Schiff describes as “…a sensible plan to protect your wealth.”

Charles and Jason describe the next and most difficult phase of America’s financial turmoil – the coming currency crisis. A currency crisis is not a pleasant event for anyone, but I have outlined simple steps people can take to protect themselves and their families.” You’ll learn about the governmental errors that led to the current economic crisis and the bumpy road ahead. The signs are clear: Federal debt is compounding while growth has stalled, and America’s foreign creditors are questioning the dollar’s reserve currency status. Meanwhile, the “hidden” federal debt, much larger than the official debt, makes things even worse.

In clear detail we’ll discuss alternative investments — from gold and silver to oil and agriculture and income property — that will remain strong in the face of mounting inflation. Goyette will join Congressman Paul, author Thomas Woods, and others, speaking at the 2009 Freedom Summit in Phoenix, Arizona. The Freedom Summit conferences offer a stimulating periodic update on the current status of freedom in our world by a highly distinguished assortment of the leading figures in the freedom movement. “People need not get left holding the bag after decades of government irresponsibility, said Goyette. “But they must understand where we are, how we got here, and what happens next. America’s debt is a powder keg ready to blow. The fuse was lit by the mad rush of bailouts and stimulus spending.”

#23 – Confessions of An Economic Hit Man by John Perkins

Jason Hartman — Fri, 26 Feb 2010 16:40:06 +0000

Jason Hartman talks with John Perkins, a man who has lived four lives: as an economic hit man (EHM); as the CEO of a successful alternative energy company, who was rewarded for not disclosing his EHM past; as an expert on indigenous cultures and shamanism, a teacher and writer who used this expertise to promote ecology and sustainability while continuing to honor his vow of silence about his life as an EHM; and as a writer who, in telling the real-life story about his extraordinary dealings as an EHM, has exposed the world of international intrigue and corruption that is turning the American republic into a global empire despised by increasing numbers of people around the planet. Visit: http://www.holisticsurvival.com/category/audio-podcast/.

As an EHM, John’s job was to convince Third World countries to accept enormous loans for infrastructure development—loans that were much larger than needed—and to guarantee that the development projects were contracted to U.S. corporations like Halliburton and Bechtel. Once these countries were saddled with huge debts, the U.S. government and the international aid agencies allied with it were able to control these economies and to ensure that oil and other resources were channeled to serve the interests of building a global empire.

In his EHM capacity, John traveled all over the world—to Africa, Asia, Europe, Latin America, and the Middle East—and was either a direct participant in or witness to some of the most dramatic events in modern history, including the Saudi Arabian Money-laundering Affair, the fall of the Shah of Iran, the assassination of Panama’s President Omar Torrijos, the subsequent invasion of Panama, and events leading up to the 2003 invasion of Iraq.
