Dr. Roger McFillin examines the growing transhumanist movement and its push to "upgrade" human biology through AI and genetic engineering. He warns how tech billionaires are investing billions in technologies like Project Stargate that aim to merge human consciousness with artificial intelligence, challenging listeners to question whether our emotions and struggles really need technological "fixing." Drawing on insights from experts like Dr. Greg Braden and Dr. Eben Alexander he makes a compelling case for protecting our fundamental human nature against those who view it as something to be optimized and controlled.

On Wednesday, January 22nd 2025 Dr. Roger McFillin was interviewed by Dr. Nikki Johnson, a pediatrician and the Director of FAIR (Foundation Against Intolerance and Racism) in Medicine for a live webinar event. The webinar, titled "Informed Consent and SSRIs Revisited: Side Effects and Treatment Alternatives," tackles one of the most pressing issues in mental healthcare today. It was too important to not get out on a podcast episode. Medical freedom and Informed consent are one of the most pressing issues of our time. The Foundation Against Intolerance & Racism ("FAIR")is a nonprofit, nonpartisan organization committed to challenging threats to civil liberties from identity-based practices. As an organization committed to promoting honest scientific discourse and defending medical freedom, FAIR is uniquely positioned to facilitate these crucial conversations. During this live webinar, Dr. McFillin and Dr. Johnson explored critical questions about SSRI medications that often go undiscussed: What are the full range of side effects? What alternative treatments exist? How has industry influence shaped our understanding of these medications? Most importantly, what information do patients need for genuine informed consent?

Dr. Roger McFillin welcomes back Clinical Psychologist Dr. Riz Ahmad to explore a fundamental question: "Does nature make mistakes?" Challenging conventional psychiatric approaches, they argue that what we label as mental illness is actually be the body's natural signals for change. The psychologists contrast traditional mental health treatment with 'functional mental health', which focuses on root causes and the interconnection between physical and mental well-being rather than subjective labels and drugs. Through practical examples, they advocate for a paradigm shift that considers the whole person - from lifestyle and nutrition to relationships and spiritual health - ultimately calling for a healthcare system that heals rather than simply suppresses symptoms.

Following his profound discussion with Dr. Diane Hennacy Powell on the "telepathy tapes" documenting verified telepathic communication among non-speaking autistic individuals, Dr. Roger McFillin delves deeper into the implications of post-materialist science. Drawing from rigorous research at the University of Virginia, including documented cases of past-life memories and verifiable near-death experiences, McFillin examines how these findings align with Powell's groundbreaking work to challenge conventional psychiatric models. Together, these episodes present compelling evidence that consciousness extends beyond the brain, suggesting that what we label as mental disorders might instead be natural adaptations to our rapidly changing environment. Evolving science points toward a paradigm shift in how we understand human consciousness, mental health, and evolutionary potential.

Neuroscientist and Psychiatrist Dr. Diane Hennacy Powell, author of "The ESP Enigma: The Scientific Case for Psychic Phenomena," is a pioneering researcher challenging our fundamental understanding of human consciousness. Her groundbreaking work, documented in "The Telepathy Tapes" series, presents rigorous scientific evidence of telepathic abilities in non-speaking autistic children - abilities that defy modern neuroscience and psychiatry. In this transformative episode, Dr. Powell reveals her controlled studies and the remarkable case of Haley, a non-speaking autistic who demonstrated extraordinary telepathic capabilities. Her research suggests consciousness isn't generated by the brain but channeled through it, challenging everything we know about mental health, human potential, and the nature of consciousness itself. This work points to a radical reimagining of autism not as a disorder, but as an evolved state of consciousness our materialist paradigm fails to comprehend.

Dr. Roger McFillin challenges everything we think we know about OCD treatment, arguing that many standard approaches aren't just ineffective – they're actively harmful. He delivers a scathing critique of the mental health establishment's reliance on SSRIs and traditional talk therapy, suggesting that what's often labeled "treatment-resistant" OCD might actually be the result of incompetent treatment. McFillin controversially reframes OCD not as a brain disorder, but as an evolutionary adaptation that can become problematic in certain contexts. He exposes two critical processes that most treatments miss – thought-action fusion and intolerance of uncertainty – while arguing that trying to suppress or control intrusive thoughts through medication paradoxically reinforces the very mechanisms that maintain OCD. Challenging the medical establishment's view, McFillin suggests our culture's obsession with pathologizing normal human experiences has created a fear of our own minds that makes OCD worse, while offering hope that recovery is possible with the right approach.

Alexandra, founder of "Just the Inserts," transforms complex medical information into accessible resources for the public. Sparked by her daughter's adverse vaccine reaction and her military background, she created a platform that helps Americans understand pharmaceutical product inserts and make informed healthcare decisions. Her investigation revealed concerning practices in the medical system, including limited adverse event reporting and diminishing standards of informed consent. Despite facing challenges when sharing FDA data, Alexandra continues to advocate for medical transparency through her new book and by building networks of healthcare providers committed to thorough patient education. Her work emphasizes the difference between current practices of rushed paperwork and true informed consent, where patients fully understand their medical choices.

Justin Garson, professor of philosophy at Hunter College and the Graduate Center City University of New York and author of "Madness: A Philosophical Exploration," has emerged as one of psychiatry's most compelling critics. In this explosive episode, he challenges everything we've been told about mental illness, revealing why depression, ADHD, and even schizophrenia aren't brain diseases – they're adaptive responses that may have kept our ancestors alive. From his father's struggle with schizophrenia in the Nixon era to his own teenage experience with depression, Garson exposes how the "broken brain" narrative has robbed us of agency, created dependency on psychiatric drugs, and ignored the real roots of human suffering. Whether you've been diagnosed with a mental illness, take psychiatric medication, or simply wonder about the nature of human consciousness, this conversation will fundamentally change how you think about mental health in modern society.

The National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) has wasted more than $40 billion on genetic/biological research for mental health while suicide rates have soared and communities have lost crucial support resources. This massive investment has produced little in the way of improved outcomes, betraying the public trust and enriching pharmaceutical companies. Dr. McFillin calls for a revolution in mental health research and language, emphasizing the need for accountability and shift in priorities.

As America responded with a mandate for Donald Trump, Dr. McFillin issues a powerful call to action: Making America Healthy Again demands more than policy change—it requires reclaiming our fundamental emotional sovereignty. In this compelling episode, he exposes how the modern mental health system has conditioned us to fear natural emotional responses, creating cycles of dependency and spiritual disconnection.
Dr. McFillin argues that depression and anxiety aren't disorders but transformative spiritual forces that have been pathologized through decades of pharmaceutical marketing. Drawing from ancient wisdom, he reveals how suppressing these emotional states serves a broader system of control, disconnecting people from their inner guidance and spiritual power. The COVID crisis, he suggests, demonstrated how medical authorities can shape public behavior through fear.
The path forward requires revolutionizing our approach to emotional wellness. Instead of medicating away our pain, we must recognize these experiences as catalysts for personal and societal transformation. Dr. McFillin outlines how emotional resilience—not emotional suppression—builds the strong, discerning citizens needed to preserve American values and freedoms. This episode provides a roadmap for breaking free from the "mental health matrix" and restoring our natural capacity for growth through emotional awareness.

"Safe and effective." With these three words, President Biden and public health officials launched an unprecedented campaign to vaccinate the American public with a novel mRNA technology. Today, we know those words were demonstrably false.
In a groundbreaking interview on the Radically Genuine Podcast, Amy Kelly, Chief Operations Officer of Daily Clout and director of the Pfizer Documents Analysis Project, reveals the chilling truth behind the clinical trials. Working with thousands of medical and scientific experts, Kelly's team analyzed over 450,000 pages of Pfizer's own data – documents the FDA initially tried to hide from the public for 75 years.
What they uncovered is nothing short of shocking. She is the co-author of The Pfizer Papers: Pfizer's Crimes Against Humanity

An alarming number of individuals find themselves dependent on antidepressants and psychiatric medications, desperately seeking guidance on how to safely discontinue their use. The general medical community has failed to assist people in safely getting off these drugs. The dependency can create severe withdrawal symptoms. Most doctors have no clue how to get their patients off safely keeping them in a cycle of drug dependency. The worst of prescribers will frame the withdrawal symptoms as worsening "depression" and justification for staying on drugs. On Episode 154 of the Radically Genuine Podcast Dr. Roger McFillin dives into the topic of deprescribing and tapering off psychiatric drugs with a pharmacist.
Dr. Shawn Gill, PharmD, is a pharmacist, writer, podcaster, and entrepreneur dedicated to sparking change in healthcare through deprescribing. He is the founder of Deprescribe Solutions, an independent consulting practice focused on reversing early-stage chronic conditions in mental health, hypertension, and type 2 diabetes. He hosts the "Deprescribe" podcast and writes the Substack newsletter "B.U.D.S," where he explores topics in health, deprescribing, parenting, and personal growth.Chapters

In this explosive episode, insiders Drs. Tim and May Hindmarsh, hosts of the BS Free MD’s podcast, blow the whistle on a medical system they claim is fundamentally broken. From the death of independent practices to the insidious influence of Big Pharma, these veteran family physicians pull no punches. They expose how insurance companies manipulate care, why your doctor's recommendations might be driven by profit rather than health, and how "preventative medicine" could be making you sicker. The Hindmarshes argue that the Affordable Care Act, far from fixing healthcare, has made it worse - and more expensive. They reveal why nutrition is ignored in medical schools and how standardized screenings could be harming patients. But it's not all doom and gloom - our guests offer radical solutions to fix the system, challenging listeners to take control of their own health. Whether you're a patient, a healthcare provider, or just someone who cares about the future of medicine, this episode is a wake-up call you can't afford to miss.

Dr. McFillin analyzes the manipulation tactics employed by the pharmaceutical industry to alter our perceptions of depression and mental health. He breaks down the notorious Zoloft "blob" commercial from 2001, uncovering its powerful role in shaping public understanding of depression and how we treat it. Many of these psychological manipulation techniques are still in use today. Without awareness of these strategies, we risk falling prey to well-documented methods of mind control. The first step in this resistance isn't anger or action—it's awareness. Open your eyes. See the manipulation for what it is. Because once you can spot the strings of the puppet masters, you can begin to cut them.
Your mind is your own. Guard it fiercely.
