"The Very Best of Cheap Trick" makes an appearance on the Dark Horse podcast
and exposes why we cannot rely on 'peer review'
We were very glad to see that Bret and Heather Weinstein covered our recent substack article ‘The Very Best of Cheap Trick’ on their wonderful Dark Horse podcast.
The full podcast video can be found on YouTube here (our bit starts at 1.15.15):
If you are rushed for time here is a 5-minute excerpt from their discussion covering the cheap trick:
Bret’s comments about how this exposes the fundamental flaws of peer review (in the so-called most prestigious journals) is especially pertinent. Remember that even letters to the journals pointing out the obvious flaws in these studies do not get published, while our own work that challenges any of the ‘official’ covid narrative even gets automatically rejected by the pre-print servers.
It’s all about peer pressure - forget the ‘review’ - and the fear of being excommunicated from the ingroup of righteous priests. The moral overtones of the learned class have taken a turn in the most dangerous direction.

The fact that Darkhorse sat in RFK Jr interview for a year before releasing adds more suspicions for me about the true motives and potential conflicts of interest & claims about fretting income impact to his Youtube stream w RFK post doesn't help build any trust w half million settlement in the bank.
