In this week’s episode we discussed Alpha-Gal Syndrome, a surprising and often misunderstood allergy triggered by tick bites. We break down how one tiny tick can change your diet and health, what symptoms to watch for, and why cases are on the rise. What if a single tick bite could make you allergic to red meat?

Sounds like science fiction. You walk into the woods one afternoon, come home with a tick bite, and months later, a steak could put you in the hospital. No warning, no immediate reaction, just a quiet shift inside your immune system until your body suddenly decides red meat is the enemy. This is not fringe medicine. This is real, and it's growing across the United States. A condition called Alpha gall syndrome, a tick triggered allergy to red meat, is quietly exploding. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimates that between 110,000 and potentially up to 450,000 Americans may already be affected, many without even knowing it. And the trend line, it's not flat. It's climbing between 2017 and 2021. Alone, suspected cases jumped over 40% with 1000s of new cases added every year. Some researchers say positive test results have increased 100 fold over the past decade. That's not a blip, that's a pattern. And here's the part that should make you pause. Many doctors still don't recognize it. Surveys show over 40% of health care providers have never even heard of alpha gall syndrome, and many others aren't confident diagnosing it, so you've got a rapidly growing condition with delayed symptoms that mimics other illnesses, and a medical system still catching up. So what are we really dealing with here? Is this just another emerging allergy, like peanuts decades ago? Or is this something bigger? Because if something this small can rewrite what humans are allowed to eat. Imagine what else can be rewritten and who's paying attention. Welcome
Ian
to the retro. Retrospect podcast, a show where people come together from different walks of life and discuss a topic from the generations perspective. My name is Ian, and as always, I'm joined by Stoney,
Stoney
hello
Ian
and Jason.
Jason
Hello everyone.
Ian
How's it going?
Jason
Well, I was in training all day today. So, yeah, so I'm, I'm, I'm doing pretty good. Yeah, yeah. You know, it's a right now. You know, everything's starting to get out there in the yard and get everything, the flowers, you know, plant it, and get, you know, kind of getting every everything's looking all green and beautiful right now. I mean,
Ian
had one little cold moment, and then now it's back to,
Jason
well, yeah, I think here we are. I think there's another front moving through. I think I saw on the news, something's moving in through this weekend. Really. I think temperatures gonna drop a little bit. So this might be the last,
Ian
yeah, little drop, the last
Jason
little I guess, if you want to call it cool front, yeah. I just think we're starting to get a little too far into the year now, where the broiler is fixing to be turned on. So, yeah, but yeah, everything's good right now. I'm looking for a house. Okay? The wife and I are house shopping right now. So it's a I got a lot of stuff. I mean, I've got to buy a new car. I've got shopping for a house. I'm getting some some quotes right now on doing some renovation to
Ian
my house. Currently, Jason gets married all of a sudden now he's got a I
Jason
gotta, I gotta do everything you know, update everything you know, I had a timetable before, you know, you know, actually a couple years back, because I had remodeled my house back in 2018 I had completely gutted the bottom floor and replaced everything, repainted, you know, new trim, new bathroom. I mean, I mean, literally gutted to the stud. And now I need to do, I've been wanting to do the upstairs. Okay, because my house was a two story house, yeah, and I just never had gotten to it, partly because I just money and just everything else. But now I've got some some things pushing me to try to get some of this done. So I mean, if we're going to put the house up and and try to find another house together, then, yeah, I kind of have to kind of update, at least update the top, like I did the bottom and but yeah, so, and just been busy with with all that right now, and it's just so, just Trying to find a place, because, you know, I want, I'm looking for, you know, we're not looking for a big house, because it's just, it's just us two. But you know, we're looking somewhere in the 22 to 2300 square foot home, but with a
Stoney
little bit of land. That's for a family of five. That's what a family of five needs. No, that's what Miranda and I live in right now. And it's too much for two people. Well, it's way
Jason
too much. Well, the thing is,
Stoney
Tracy, like one of them, stuck on workman's comp. I can't sure
Jason
Tracy wants, likes to entertain, and so she wants to have family over and stuff like that. So the idea would be 23 but the right, the way the house is laid out is the, is the critical part. But I want a little bit of land, not a lot. It's not like I need, because I don't want to, like, what,
Stoney
five, six acres? No, what all that? 1015, no,
Jason
don't want that. I'm looking at, you know, you know, just enough that I can piddle around right and not spend my entire day worried about
Stoney
taking care of the yard, enough that you can go cut the grass for a couple hours and not have to do anything inside well,
Ian
and also not have to.
Jason
I have a maid that comes so and we will have a maid coming right on my you know, Tracy will continue to do her thing like she does, because she likes everything to be real clean, right, and organized. So I understand what you're
Ian
saying about the yard stuff, though you want, I
Jason
want a little bit yard because I want something where I can maybe put a little greenhouse, yeah, like I currently have right now. I mean, the size yard I have, it's perfect. That's that's what I'm looking for. The problem is finding that now is almost next to impossible. You either get a house that's about 18 to 1900 square feet, when I tell you there is no yard, no, there's none, yeah, yeah. So you're either you got house and that's it, and it's like, Well, we both like to go out and put, you know, put our hands in the dirt and stuff like that. So, or it jumps to like, 2700 square foot. So there's really that nothing in between, yeah, that just, it's just very, why don't you
Stoney
find a little piece of property and design a house and build hard, not really.
Jason
It's not that hard because, because we have looked at at some property, but it's finding property within the area that we want to be in, right? Tracy's not big on building. She's built a home before. Most one of the most frustrating things ever, which I understand everybody I've talked to that built a home, it is, it is very, very difficult to do. It's just very stressful event. So she would rather get an existing home that that kind of fits our needs, right? That gives us that way. And we're going to be seeing some we're going to go look at some houses this weekend. We've already looked at a few already, like one that I've seen, but it's, it's a fairly large home.
Ian
How quickly are you guys wanting to like? Well, a lot of it will
Jason
depend on on how fast and get my house renovated. Okay, makes sense and and to be able to put it on market, and then however long it'll take it or sell. Because I think my house is gonna sell fast. I'm gonna price it. I think at a point where a lot of people are gonna want to jump on that.
Ian
So you think, you think possibly, you may, you may be moving out before the end of the year, could Okay,
Jason
or maybe early next year.
Stoney
Remember, the mid summer time is prime selling time, because people that want to get their kids into certain school districts you so I would be looking at getting it ready for, you know, mid
Jason
summer, and there's a local school initiative right now.
Stoney
That's what I'm exactly, what I'm talking about
Jason
areas that people looking in your area. Well, I think if it does pass, I think it's still going to take, you know, it's going to take a little while for it. But I think long term, I think my house is going to just nothing but go up in value. I really believe that. And it's going to be priced where easily for a young couple, that it's starting out or or a minimum, even, you know, I don't think an older person with my mom, simply because it has a two story, yeah, but, but for a young family, yeah? You know, maybe, you know, has one child. Yes, I can easily see it.
Ian
One of my really close friends just recently, he and his wife got married, probably two years ago. At this point, they've been together for a long, long time, and they got married, they were in like, this little bitty apartment for again, up until their marriage, and then, of course, the past couple years, and he's been doing really well at his job. He works, like in plant work type stuff, or like, administrative stuff in plant work. So, you know, doesn't really get his hands dirty, but does all the numbers and stuff. Right? And he, he recently just bought himself a house in, like, in, like, a new development area, like a new subdivision kind of thing. And he's at, like, the, like, around the bend of, like a cul de sac. And I went out there and, man, it was, it was such a beautiful house. And I was like, Oh, my buddy gets a little bit of money. And all of a sudden he's like, Hey, man, you know, I've been wanting to give myself a house for him and his wife for a long time. And I was like, Hey, I'm just pulling your leg, dude. So I'm happy for him, because it's like, he's got a really nice and again, it's all, like modern, like the like, the floor plan of it, it all makes sense. And he was just showing me around. And I was like, man,
Jason
so happy. So I'm telling you building today that we looked at new construction, and new construction is just very expensive. Oh, yeah, what you get? Yeah, there's a couple places we've looked that I was all have always been intrigued by actually designing a house, yeah, that would work for for me, and for, you know, for that way we get kind of both of our but it's builders to make it, yeah, well, it's just the amount of money. I mean, let's be honest, there was an area that we both liked, but to buy the lot and that, I mean, you're now, you're pushing over 600,000 and that's kind of outside of our, our our budget, and that we're willing, because we don't want to be house poor, of course, you know, we both want to plan to travel and do things, and I don't want to be completely have a bell brought, you know, yeah, you know, around my neck trying to pay a house note, you know, at my age now, and trying to do all that when, you know, right now it should be, you know, where we're going to go right this year, but, but, yeah, it's just, it's just, right now the house market is just, it's just, just what it is. It's just, it's very difficult finding that, that that middle 2200, square foot home with a little bit of yard. It just, it's just almost doesn't exist.
Ian
It's black and white. You
Jason
either get small, yeah, with postage stamp yard, or you got the half acre lot with the big house, which, you know, it's kind of like, you know, what are we going to do it all this time? Now, I was mentioned in the pre show, there was a house that I do like. I think it's big. Yeah, it would be way more house than what her and I would ever need, right? But it does, gives us some flexibility on some things that I would like to do and to be able but, I mean, well, as I said, we'll find something right now, but, you know, we've just started looking, and so we'll have to, I'm a believer in the good Lord will will lead us to the house that, oh yeah, he wants us to be in. So, yeah, so that's, that's kind of what's been going on in my life right now and and all that. So what about y'all?
Ian
I, I work with a production company sometimes, and in this past week, and we had a whole bunch of big shows that were happening, so I did a, I'm not gonna name drop anybody, I'll tell you guys after the show, there was, like, some pretty big artists that came out. So did a big production for them on Friday, and then Saturday, there's a band that the production is, like, has a contract with that are really a good, popular band. It's like, local and and they were doing a reception for a wedding that was like, out in the middle of nowhere. So I had to drive two hours out there to go run the production for that. So it was a lot of fun to kind of get back out there and do that kind of work again. So that was, like the big, I was probably the big highlight of this past week. So that's pretty good, all things considered.
Jason
So, but yeah, we went to a wedding this past weekend.
Ian
Yeah, so did that. That's fun.
Jason
Oh yeah. Was a great time. It was a Tracy's best friend, cool. So she got married, and it was a great ceremony, and that's a great, great reception. We had a crowd. Had a lot of fun. So I
Ian
believe that was it, was it you Stoney, that had brought up this, like, talked about, like, with the topic we're talking about today, you kind of had mentioned it, I think before we left, or it was, it was on the tail end of last episode, I don't think so exactly you had mentioned it. And we were like, okay, that'd be an interesting thing to talk about, because part, I've never heard of it before. I didn't know it was I didn't
Jason
know either,
Stoney
and so huge it is.
Ian
I had no idea.
Stoney
CDC,
Ian
yeah,
Stoney
estimates a half a million people already. That's clinch 2021, that have been infected, and I say infected because this was engineered by human beings. Ticks basically given an enzyme, something, whatever they do, and now they're biting humans and make. Making them allergic to red meat, which actually includes pork. Okay, it's meat and pork. Chicken does not seem to be affected. Fish doesn't seem to be infected. It's some type of a mammal, type of a allergic reaction. Now, I would like everybody to know, I don't know if you know this. I'm sure everybody's heard the term lactose intolerant, right? Do you know what that is?
Ian
Your body's intolerant to the sugar lactose
Stoney
basically, the humans that can drink milk and eat cheese today are the genetic defect, right? They're the they're the defects. Yeah, your body's not supposed to be able to process that. When you're two and three years old, you stop producing the enzyme that can digest your mother's milk. So you're not supposed to be doing dairy, basically at all.
Jason
I love dairy.
Stoney
Before I realized I was lactose intolerant, a big, big, tall glass of chocolate milk. So I guess, in a way, they're playing off of that, giving this tick, and we can look at the science, I'd be willing to bet all the money in my pocket that Jason can break that down for us. Now they give this tick, they work with the enzymes, and when it bites you, you go through this week or two of some serious reactions to it, and in the end result, you're allergic to red meat. And that's just not accidental. There was God did not make a tick that made you allergic to red meat. This is man made now, there's some, some people out there saying Bill Gates did this, which
Ian
he has wing. Wing, yeah,
Stoney
no, he has funded it. I mean, I can't actually come out and say that he's the one who came up with this idea, but he has funded this through the Bill Gates Foundation, through other things, he's funded this and like they were doing something for in Africa with ticks and the livestock there, yeah, and that is known that he's done, but whether he's the cult, the culprit of this specific tick thing, I can't say for sure, but there's enough evidence, though. What did Arsenio Hall do things that make you go?
Jason
Well, I'm looking at this chart here. It says this is how fast this stuff has grown. They said in 2009 there were 24 known cases by 2017 5000 by 2018 34,000 that is 2022, 450,000 and it just keeps jumping this, like Stoney said, it's now probably over 500,000
Stoney
well over. Because the last the 400,400 50,000 was two years ago. If you just look at how exponentially is growing, it could be over a million at this point.
Jason
They said, according to CDC, the number of new suspected cases of alpha gal syndrome is increasing by more than 15,000 a year. That's the thing is, like,
Ian
is there some sort of, like, pesticide we can use to, well, it neutralizes
Jason
tick or something. It's a lone star. Tick is what we use. And it's funny that, you know, I was watching a kind of a generic, kind of an informational podcast on Alpha gal syndrome, which made, which kind of made me do, kind of one of those moments, but the first they they trace the origins of this stuff to basically the state of Virginia. Okay, now I need you to kind of hold that. Okay, Virginia. Why is that state significant? It's because the government back in the 50s, in the 60s, spread over a half a million ticks in that area, on other things to experiment on, the transmission of biological agents, using, to me, this idea that they're saying, well, they don't know where it came from. And then I'm reading this other stuff regarding these government experiments that now has come out in Congress, if people don't understand that the 2026 fiscal year appropriation for the DoD budget requires them to the inspector general to study, did the US Government experiment with ticks from like 1945 to like 1972 so it is, there is something to this. Well, you
Stoney
have to think about it. At that time, they were looking at ways to war somebody without having to actually destroy the city. And that's where the neutron bomb came from. That's where the tick what can we do to cause the most chaos and kill the people without destroying the cities and the infrastructure so that we can go in there? Oh, I bet you somebody's got a poison that kills this tick. There's probably some Tesla wave that goes through there and just destroys the whole tick colony.
Jason
And that's it. It's over. Yeah, it's a it's a 10th most common food allergen in the United States. I don't know, I don't have statistics in the world, worldwide, but 60 to 75% experience anaphylaxis, and there have been over 10 deaths, at least quarter.
Stoney
Heard a little bit more than that. Well, it
Jason
probably is. I'm just going off this stuff here. It also
Ian
says a lamb to beef, pork and lamb, which is so it's all kind of it's just the red meat variety you're saying. That's crazy.
Stoney
Yeah, some something to do with being a mammal?
Jason
Well, the bacteria that actually creates what this stuff is, yeah, is actually found in mammals. It's just not found in humans. So what happens when it's introduced to human beings? The human body recognizes it as parasites, an enemy, and it attacks it. That's what provokes the the allergic reactions and stuff like that that we all experience for a variety of different things. They say up to 3% or more of some populations are affected, which is, and I'm telling you, where they're finding. A lot of these cases are popping up. Is in Virginia, New York all along that it was
Stoney
somebody in Louisiana that got it too, though. Well, they could be.
Jason
I mean, I'm not saying it's all over, because the lone star tick is primarily in the southeast portion the United States. So, but what's happened is, find it funny that this stuff has migrated up north, yeah, which then ties back to my original comment that I said regarding these governmental experiments, yeah, yeah, with ticks. It's just some of the things I read about. You know what? What the US government was doing, they dropped like several 100,000 ticks over the sugar fields of Cuba during that time to destabilize Castro so and there is a scientist, I can pull his name up, who was one of the top viral or bio weapon guys. Guy, daddy, 89 years old, but he was instrumental in the whole weaponization of ticks, which, you know, people would think that's crazy, but then they got, they've been attempts in Congress to study this stuff. I think the first attempt was back in maybe 2019, I believe there was a representative from New Jersey, Chris Smith, I believe his name, he attempted to, and he was like chairman of the tick and Lyme disease committee, or whatever it was. And he mentioned that, you know, he tried to get something to pass, to make the inspector general to study this stuff. Was the United States doing this stuff, and they passed it in the house. It failed in the Senate. And eventually, finally, they got something moving with this and the 2026 so there's something to this. Now, I'm not going to sit here that the bacteria was created by humans. I don't believe that the evidence is not there, because they do trace this bacteria back to about 65,000 years ago, really. So it's been around a long time, do I?
Stoney
But so, but Virginia is always been populated. It would have been happening for years and years and years. Evidence does show that it may have happened 65,000 years ago, but it's been reintroduced by human beings. Oh, I
Jason
think humans have helped, yeah.
Ian
Have helped the size it ended, right?
Stoney
Yeah, I think they Yes. Louisiana does have alpha gal cases, but they don't know an exact number right now, so, but yes, we are. That's scary.
Jason
Yeah. I mean, I was reading articles like, you know, these people up north, like, where all these ticks coming from? Yeah, and come to find out, probably because our own government has been dumping a ton of them in areas that normally they didn't have a lot of ticks, you know? So, I mean, they've always had ticks in the in the south, because it's warm and the climate is ideal for them, but, you know, for colder climates, right? You know, shouldn't be a problem,
Ian
right? But here we are.
Jason
Yeah, I don't know. Man, this is. Been crazy listening to some of this stuff,
Ian
especially with it, like you had said earlier, the cases of it expanding astronomically by a factor of a lot, just like the cases that are, oh yeah, it's going correct. So it makes me feel like, why is it contagious by some other means, or is it only the tick? Because, like, Why all of a sudden is the case is going from, like, you know, teens to hundreds to 1000s to hundreds of 1000s, so fast
Jason
I think, Well, I think part of it is, I don't, I mean, whether there's just more people being bit by ticks. Maybe there's an increase in the number of ticks.
Stoney
Think about that all of our shows. What are we talking about? People not going outside. Less and less people are going outside. So magically, all of a sudden, more people are getting bit by ticks, even though there's less people outside,
Jason
unless, as I'm saying, unless, people have already been bitten. People have always or maybe there's been a lot of people experiencing these type of symptoms didn't quite know what it was, because it does mimic other illnesses. Doctors don't really know a whole lot about it. They maybe misdiagnose it, or they treat something else, thinking it's this, but it's in reality. It's that. So I think as more and more knowledge it, you know, as more and more is brought to the forefront, and especially with medical research and stuff like that, I think they're going, oh, yeah, this is what you got, you know. So they, I mean, they say symptoms can take up to three to eight hours, you know, after eating meat. Yeah? So it's not evident, so you may
Stoney
think about what you just said magically one day. No, that's not how it happens. It's you get bit. It's just crazy. I don't know. Yeah, in Virginia, there's something wrong going on in Virginia. And I was going to bring this up, I'm glad you said that. Did you just hear what happened with their popular vote and electoral vote? Yeah, I saw that. They just your vote doesn't count in Virginia. Oh, really, yes, that no, no Virginians vote counts, period at all. Everybody can vote in Virginia or not vote in Virginia. What they the law that they just passed, and it's SB, 322, and was signed by Governor spansburg, or whatever. It basically says that the state's total 270 electoral votes. And I think it's a, what is it will award, it's 13 votes to the winner of the nationwide popular vote.
Jason
Yeah, there is a, there is a, you know, on that. So basically
Stoney
everybody could vote for candidate A, but if Candidate B, that means 100% doesn't matter. Yeah, and Candidate B wins the popular vote of the country, that's who their electoral votes will go to.
Ian
How do they, how are they able to
Stoney
pass that's unconstitutional. Got to be challenged.
Jason
I think, yeah, I think what they're trying to do is bypass the, you know, the Electoral College and people, you know, I mean, you hear people moaning, complaining about, well, you know, on the surface, it should be popular vote, but I don't think people really understand what that what that really means.
Stoney
Well, you want the popular vote when 35 million dead people are voting for the Democrats, and now how many illegal aliens are going to be able to vote for Democrats? There's this huge thing on, and I may have mentioned it in the last episode about the Liberals saying how much Donald Trump hates dead people. Do you know why they're saying that? Because he doesn't want them to vote, of course. But Virginia, it sounds like from Jason saying, back even into the 40s, they've been messing around with their people?
Jason
Well, I think as they dumped, from what I was, I was listening to a show regarding the government's research into tics. So they're obviously the government has, in the past, had a you know, Fort deeds Maryland, where a lot of this was happening, right? There was another one, I think, somewhere out in Montana, something like that. They had another lab. So this stuff has been going on for some time, and there's no doubt my mind that they were probably finding, trying to find ways of spreading bio agents through insects, because they not only release ticks, they were growing mosquitoes, and they introduced a ton of this stuff in the United States, and that's documented. So that stuff has been going on for some time, but they dumped a lot of the stuff in Virginia, where they did but. Because my understanding is that is where birds there's a migratory pattern there. So they want to see how birds would carry because ticks jump on birds, oh, yeah, and it carries them to different places. So no, I mean, none of that surprises me with with that, with this particular because it's a whole different we've all heard of Lyme disease and well, all this is tied into a lot of this, this bio research that's going on. Not that the government created Lyme disease, I'm not saying that, but they did play a part in its spread. And because it's just how magically this stuff has just popped up the way it has. So what's happening is, I think, you know, you know, it's just, it's spreading the way you introduce something, the natural elements do its thing, and it sort of spreads it into areas that, maybe, if you don't do anything to manipulate that it stays where it stays. And so you're not, you're not running into
Stoney
those problems. It's not above the government to do this. What did they infect the Tuskegee Airmen with syphilis? Syphilis?
Jason
Yeah, denied them treatment, yeah. Just to see,
Stoney
just to see what it would do.
Jason
And just, I'm telling you, the government's done some, you know, I mean, you go back to, you know, Operation paper clip, and the government bringing in all those Nazi doctors and the Austrian science, all them guys that were were part of the Third Reich. Because, guess what they were doing, they were experimenting on prisoners in the concentration camp. But, you know, that's valuable research, whether you want to, the way it was done is terrible and unethical and everything else you want to call it, but the reality is, you still got data. Yeah, you still got data, and that data is valuable. So you don't think the government was like, yeah. I mean, you know you would come work for us, you know, we'll
Stoney
overlook all better. You come work for us, then you go to Russia.
Jason
You know we're gonna, you know, we'll overlook all the war. Of course you did, which I find often, you know, funny that we'll make exceptions for certain people than for others, just like I'm a firm believer of Joseph Mengele wouldn't have escaped Germany at the end of World War Two. I guarantee he probably would have been snatched up by either the Russians or us and brought over here in some clandestine manner, right, to do continuous work, of course.
Stoney
You know, hey guys, here you go here? Yes, here is a map of the cases in America.
Ian
Yeah, that's all that's awfully that's Arkansas. What is that Arkansas? Yeah, that's Arkansas. What's above Arkansas? Missouri? No, no.
Jason
Illinois. Well, they dumped a lot of stuff around on the top of,
Ian
I was gonna say Junior over here, it's all spreading west from Virginia. Look at that.
Jason
That's interesting. Well, they say common symptoms for alpha gal, stomach pain, cramping, bloating, nausea, vomiting or diarrhea several hours after eating red meat or meat based foods.
Ian
Researchers and like you said, I think, like you're talking about before, like, if you go, if it's a couple hours after you eat red meat, and you're having anaphylaxis, and you go to the doctor, and he treats you with like, epinephrine, or some sort of like, he who's to say, like, I can understand where the confusion may come in, where it's like, oh, you might be allergic to this thing. Oh, you might be allergic to this thing. Where, like, that's where I think it may be hard to, like, find where, like, it's one thing if, like, you have peanuts and you're allergic to peanuts, and you have, like, an immediate and effective like response, as opposed to, like, the meat having, like, having to take, you know, a handful of hours to maybe that's where they're having the confusion of trying to find cases and trying to find if you're actually allergic to that and not something else, because it could be, like, a red herring, or like, oh, well, you might be allergic to, yeah.
Jason
I mean, I'm, I'm looking at this study here as a National Library of Medicine, and here's a study dated July looks like July 21 looks like 2025 and it's saying here, MMA increased dramatically across all demographics. Overall, instance, proportion rose by over 50 500% with the most substantial increases observed in individuals over 40 years old. Age stratified analysis within racial groups reveal particularly sharp increases among blacks and Hispanics. Adults over 40 females experience a steeper rise in incident. Rate than males. Predictive modeling projects continued growth through 2030 with incidence proportions and black and Hispanic populations expected to increase by 57% and 72% respectfully,
Ian
remember how we were talking about like covid taken out certain generations of people.
Jason
Well, you know, as I said, these, these things, you have to, I mean, you have to think about it
Stoney
like this. They wanted to kill off the old and the poor people, right? This is designed to kill off the old and the poor people, because the rich people, the ultra elite, ain't nowhere near these ticks. That's what I'm saying. That's why, okay, and I'm 100% agreeing with you, because, but they also they're gonna still eat red meat. Every society that removes red meat from its citizens is doing it for a reason, and that is to keep them fat and slow so they can't revolt now, they just have a way to do it with bio engineering, right? Instead of just saying you killed the king's deer and hang you right now, they're just, they're not just going to even give you the choice to do it. They're just going to make you so sick, you either get sick and die from it or but you know what? The Ultra elite, you know, the what is it? Black Rock Vanguard and State Street people, the Rockefellers, the what's the other group? I always try to mention, but I'm forgetting right now, right? They still eating red meat, right? They gonna eat what they supposed to. They not going to be eating none of this 3d printed meat,
Ian
right? Artificial meat?
Stoney
Yeah, and it's lab grown, and it's not actually 3d printed but it is printed for texture. Think about that, yeah.
Jason
Well, I'm reading about this particular case of this guy, New Jersey, who ended up dying, it appears from an event, they said. The new report tells of a healthy airline pilot who, in the summer of 2024 went on a camping trip with his wife and children. They had a steak as part of a late supper. That was unusual. The man rarely ate meat. He woke up at 2am with severe stomach pain, diarrhea and vomiting, he gradually felt better, went back to sleep, and the next morning, he felt well enough to eat breakfast and walk five miles. Two weeks later, back at home in New Jersey, he went to a barbecue where he ate a hamburger. About four hours later, he grew ill. A short time after that, his son found him unconscious on the bathroom floor. Oh my gosh. The Sun called paramedics, but the man was declared dead that night at the hospital.
Stoney
So he went two weeks without eating any red meat. Between that and the hamburger, yeah, that's kind of interesting.
Jason
They said. The researchers said blood clot, blood test revealed not looking at my, my, uh, my, uh, thing jumped on me. Crazy, yeah, well, it disappeared on me. I was reading. No, here it is, okay, okay, they said, research said. Blood test revealed evidence of an alpha gal syndrome, proof it came from a lone star. Tick is incomplete. You're gonna get they are they see the authors made the link based on a statement from the man's wife, who said he had 12 or 13 sugar bites around his ankles earlier in the summer.
Stoney
Oh, you could have got, you could have got a tick in there and just not realize, yeah,
Ian
but even if that's a couple of those are freaking tick bites. That's still a lot, right?
Jason
Yeah, they said the lone stars tick ticks. Range has been expanding for quite some time, which I think part of that is the government doing what it did, and purposely spreading these ticks, which is which is sad, but you may want to Google house or defense authorization study on weaponization of ticks. There should be some information regarding that, which, I mean, that's telling if the government, if Congress, is basically saying, Guys, y'all need to figure out what's been going on here. I mean, I think it was in 1969 as in Nixon, basically next the bio weapons testing or research in
Stoney
the CIA is notorious for always listening to what the President says. Sure they didn't
Jason
do they just they do what they want to do.
Ian
A critical amend.
Jason
It was an amendment,
Ian
yeah, a critical amendment authored by represent representative, Chris Smith. Chris Smith, yeah, to investigate whether the US military weaponized ticks with Lyme disease. Yep. Has been. Included in the National Defense Authorization Act and fiscal year 2026 which has cleared the US House of Representatives, headed to the Senate and is expected to be signed by President Trump upon the final passage. I'm not sure when this was released. This was released December of 2025
Jason
not that far back, yeah. So now, whether they actually do it or not, I mean, you know, but you think the DoD is going to basically say, Yeah, we, we experimented, we experimented with with ticks and created diseases.
Stoney
And even with all the proof, they've never come out and said that they did that to the Tuskegee Airmen.
Jason
Well, you know, nobody ever admits anything.
Stoney
They're saying that if you survive the first onslaught of this alpha gal syndrome, you can somewhat live a normal life with poultry, right? Seafood, eggs, nut seeds, soy foods like tofu, yeah, and grains, vegetables and fruit. Sounds like to try and turn us into vegans or vegetarians, doesn't it?
Ian
So then, well, what if someone already had what has, like a nut allergy and has like a shellfish allergy or shellfish you're screwed. Yeah, it's chicken for the rest of your life. And so
Stoney
what they're what they're saying is, but if you go on this diet, yeah, then you need to closely monitor your proteins, your iron, your vitamin B, 12, your zinc, calcium and vitamin D. They're making you fat, they're making you slow and they're making you weak, because they're cutting the one thing out that can actually help you. You know, when you're eating red meat and pork, and you said lamb too, right? Yeah, you're getting fats in there. Your brain is comprised of fats and cholesterol. This is something else. They've been knocking the cholesterol level down for decades and decades, but you're removing the one thing that keeps you cognitively on top they're they're making us slow and fat. They're doing it intentional. You know, how many times have people joked about having a McDonald's burger that they found two years later under their car? And it looks fine. It looks totally fine. They're saying they can't. They don't have enough cows in America to produce the amount of meat just for the McDonald's burgers that are made every year. I don't know if that's a true statistic or not. I think I kind of like to find out, but when you think about it, that's substantial. So that means they're putting in bones, they're putting in other things into the D printing. Thank you. Yeah, I mean, they're, they're making us, they're trying to make us vegans and vegetarians, or, I think, with with fish and seafood. What is it? Pescatarian? Yeah, right. And that's just crazy. But you know, the ultra elite, they gonna beat their meat.
Ian
Everything's fine with them. And it's the same thing, I feel like, with like, the the same thing with like, vaccines or cures for things. It's like, it could probably run rampant 400,000 500,000 cases. But the second, like, some critical elite people potentially get bit by that tick. And it's like, Oh, we got to get a Q. To get a cure for this ASAP. We got to start expediting.
Stoney
Everybody's going to need a vaccine. Oh, here you come with the mRNA vaccine.
Ian
I'm not talking about like, vaccine, like a bad way like that. I'm talking about like, if there's actually a vaccine or a cure for it, like a good one that's not going to be, not going to be doctored around, like, something like that,
Stoney
but how hard it is to get people to eat healthier. Now, if you cut out red meat, it's you're just going to go to this high processed, low protein, you know, convenience food, just because that's all that's left for you. Because people aren't going to make salads, they're not gonna, you know, I just right, interesting.
Ian
I wonder where this I wonder what's gonna happen, like, as far as finding some sort of like,
Jason
I don't, I don't know. There may be a lot of people that actually have it. Don't know. They don't know they have it, and it's not affecting them, right? Because everybody's body chemistry is different. I mean, it could be
Stoney
substantial that if you get bit by this tick you're gonna have, you're gonna have something. You know, it's not just like I got bit, and I'm not worried about it. You become that day, you become allergic to meat. If you eat meat, you're gonna get violently sick.
Jason
They say it's been identified across multiple continents, North America, Europe, Australia, parts of Asia and Africa.
Stoney
Bill Gates was, was researching and and promoting this in Africa. He's the one who sent it over there. Oh, yeah, magically, we can't produce he any evidence that he's. Part of it, other than funding in America, but he's the one who did it in Africa, and there's evidence to back that up.
Jason
Yeah, yeah, it's a sugar molecule. It's what it is, you know, and it just your body reacts to it. So I don't, I don't know. There's really no numbers. There's no worldwide registry that you can pull numbers worldwide of how many it could be. It's probably in the millions, I have right. People are suffering from this stuff that we really don't know about. And you know, whether this is just a natural phenomenon that that, you know, I mean, people say that, you know, the climate is changing, getting warmer, which means ticks are expanding into areas that normally didn't have them, or didn't have them very much. So people didn't run across ticks, right? Or, or it's unfortunate, because we have done certain things, and we've kind of helped nature, so to speak, you know, move into areas that normally it would not be. So I don't know. I mean, it's just as a, you know, when you pull up a lot of this data, you know, there's always climate change and in all this stuff. And I'm kind of like, you know, kind of this, kind of shaking my head, I'm going, here, you know, climate here we go again. Gotta include the climate change. But, you know, I mean, is, is it getting warmer? I don't know. Maybe it is getting warmer. I don't, I don't know they, you know, supposedly, the the experts say we're getting warmer. Now, whether What's that getting warmer? Why is that happening? Is that a natural earth cycle? I would think it's probably has more to do with just how we cycle from cold to hot on planet Earth, because at one time it was very cold, yeah, on this planet. So I think we'll eventually be cold again, and whether whoever's living at that time will experience it at that time. But, you know, right now, we're just in, kind of in a warming trend. So I
Ian
wonder too, like, I mean, we kind of talked about this a little bit last year, or, you know, throughout the course of last year, like, we didn't have, like, hurricanes weren't really a super big deal last year because the water temperature was technically lower than I think it had normally been, right that. So I wonder now for this year, like, is that trend going to continue? Are we going to have, like, you know, same I
Jason
think I saw that they they're predicting a super l Nino, really this this year. They say the waters in the Pacific are going to be really super warm, which is funny for for where we live. Yeah, that actually usually means suppressed. Hurricane season in the Atlantic, the way it works now. There is a big super typhoon right now out in the Pacific, really, yes, okay, I think I saw something to the effect that, yeah, it's like, it's like, has broken all the records, really, wins 180 miles an hour,
Ian
because I know that's, that's how, that's how it
Jason
sounds super I mean, you may want to find out, yes, I've been seeing things regarding this typhoon in the Pacific. You may want to check, just kind of looking to fact check that if that's really real, but it's supposedly but with that, it wouldn't surprise me if it's real, because they're saying it's going to be an increase in typhoon activity because of the conditions in the Pacific, and that affects wind patterns and how all that works out. But they say during an El Nino, that means it's less hurricanes in the Atlantic. Now that doesn't mean you're not going to get hit. It just simply means the chances are a
Ian
lot lower super typhoon Sen laku, yep. In mid April 2026 a powerful typhoon bore down on the Mariana Islands in the North Pacific Ocean. The storm super typhoon Sen laku was notable for reaching such exceptional strengths so early in the year. Right the visual, infrared imaging, radar suite or veers on the satellite captured this image, and it's an image of just this massive looking hurricane thing, image about 330 local time storm carried such sustaining winds of around 280 kilometers, which is 175 miles an hour. Yeah, that places it as a violent typhoon, the highest intensity all. On the scale used by The Japan Meteorological Agency, and equivalent to a Category five storm. Yep, oh my goodness, yeah, that's crazy.
Jason
Yeah, I just been seeing, seeing little tidbits here and there about which, as I'm saying with they're predicting a very powerful El Nino, yeah, an exceptional year. Okay, and so that's means going to be a lot of strong storms in the Pacific. Yeah. Now, as I said, All it takes is one here, oh yeah, oh yeah. And believe me, on on years that have been supposedly slow for us. You know, we've been hit in this region, Oh, pretty by a pretty strong storm, right?
Ian
I'm just was curious, because, again, I could be wrong, but I think as of last year, I don't remember, there may have been a couple of storms that it passed through, but nothing like category hurricane level. I don't remember. I could be wrong,
Stoney
but last year was the first year, yeah, in recorded history that no name storm was produced.
Jason
Yeah. So, I mean, we don't need storms.
Stoney
No, no, no, the same year that they fired all the scientists from the supposed weather control station.
Jason
Yeah, oh yeah, no, I gotta throw it in there. The latest right now is all the scientists that seem to be showing up dead, that's crazy, that are tied to either energy or UFO related Dales. And they're, just coincidentally, it's Yeah, matter of fact, it's even been brought up in matter of fact, they are a reporter and a wise White House briefing brought this up, and they're like, it's now happening enough that it's kind of defying kind of your natural, kind of natural things that happen. Why is it these particular people are ending up dead that just seemed to be tied to certain types of programs. So I don't know, maybe it all has to do with all that UFO disclosure, that that's
Stoney
Same reason all the pregnant interns committed suicide with two shots to the head that were around Bill Clinton. Yeah, it's magical.
Jason
Just sometimes, sometimes you just got to, kind of, you know, some things just make you think, why are these things happening? You know, what seems to be the common thread? And, you
Stoney
know, we need to get Arsenio Hall on the show. Things that make you go, hmm.
Jason
Just one time, I remember that ship quite a bit. Oh yeah, the good old 90s, yeah, but yeah, I don't know. Man, this is a, we are at a we got, there's a situation, and as as fast as this stuff is spreading, I kind of worry about myself going out and the woods and be sure to bring sure you spray, you spray yourself with a lot of deep woods off to prevent them from from latching on to you.
Stoney
That's all our kids need. Is another reason not to go, right, you're right, and we just gave it to him.
Jason
Well, I think it's just the lack of
Ian
leg wraps, long pants.
Jason
Yeah, I think there's a lot of, I just think there's a lot of people that are just, now, they're just, they have these computers and, you know, things that
Ian
in the modern age, it's the worst for anyone who's hypochondriac, all it takes is a little bit. And look,
Jason
I had a friend of mine with covid. Good friend. Yeah, I just one day he walked in. I saw him in a grocery store. He was wearing a full breathing apparatus, oh yeah. And I'm sitting there going, I looked at him like, really? Oh yeah.
Ian
It also covid, more than just the
Stoney
one was driving down the street and seeing someone in the car by themselves with three masks on.
Ian
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, I don't. I'm telling you, it wasn't. It was never about it was covid, but it was so much more than that. It was the fear of of everything else, of all, all of society crushing down around you. I remember it was the same
Stoney
people, oh yeah, that wanted to mandate you must have a vaccine ID card. Are the same people saying we don't need ID cards to vote. Yep. Think about that. Things that make you go, or video, can you come on the show, man, please, and just one time go, things that make you go, right?
Jason
Yeah. I mean, it's, this is just nuts. But yeah, I mean, I hope, mm. Yeah. I mean, I hope this is not a government created thing that maybe got out of maybe tied to the whole thing with with Lyme disease, and, yeah, kind of what happened with all that? And, I mean, the government has, has done research. I mean, there's no doubt my mind. There's enough evidence out there that, yes, there has been programs where they have weaponized insects. And it's not just been ticks, there's been mosquitoes and other things, like they bred a bunch of mosquitoes loaded with with yellow fever.
Ian
That just is. So that's one of those things where, like, that's not even, it's not a controlled weapon. I feel like at that point, if you're going to release that out into the world, like you really got to be comfortable with the fact that, like, that's probably going to come
Jason
back around. Yeah, you would think, What were these people? Yeah, thinking that somehow, this idea that I can control nature?
Ian
No, you can't. I recently watched, you can try. You can try. I recently watched a whole video about, or, like, it was this long, like documentary style video talking about the American Chestnut Tree and how, like, people had tried to, like, bring over other types of like, like Japanese hazelnut chestnut trees. And of course, the Japanese ones had like, certain sorts of, like, immune resistance towards, like funguses. And whenever it was transplanted here, it just like, killed all of them. And now it's like, it's crazy to think about that, like, in my lifetime, I've never really seen like, an American chestnut tree and, like, apparently it used to, like, cover the East Coast. And I had no idea it's like things like that, or like people try to come
Stoney
through into the carrots,
Ian
yeah, oh yeah, yeah. Well, didn't used to be purple that, right?
Stoney
Yeah, yeah. Changed it completely.
Ian
Yeah. That's crazy to think
Jason
about as well. Well, they say right now, Australia has one of the highest known rates. So I did find that of alpha gal. Of alpha gal, yeah, which doesn't surprise me, all right, the Australia's
Ian
Got all the verbal
Jason
potential thing that could kill you somehow exist in that country. It's unbelievable how one country could be so loaded down with some of the most dangerous animals and insects that exist on this planet? You just wonder how that works out that way? Yep, I don't know.
Ian
It's a perfect breeding ground for I mean,
Jason
you think about what they've got. I mean, snakes, oh yeah, spiders,
Jason
ticks
Ian
lizards,
Jason
lizards, crocodile, great white sharks. I mean, you name it, they have it all. Everything that can kill you is there. It's just, it's just, I find that very kind of, it's kind of interesting that, how that evolved that way. Yeah, you don't have that in Europe. You don't have that like Russia. You have it in
Stoney
Louisiana a little bit. Well, they
Jason
have it here, but I don't think you have it near.
Stoney
We have mosquitoes that can carry babies off. Okay. I mean, come
Ian
on, the one thing I don't want, I don't like wasps. And I've seen, have you seen those, like, Asian killer wasps that are like, have well, you've seen them here? No, no, no. But what I'm saying is, like, I don't want worried they coming. Well, I think they have showed up somewhere in like the East Coast, like in Virginia.
Jason
I had a friend of mine that she's now deceased, but she, I remember her posting on on Facebook that she had got stung by an Asian Hornet. Yeah, and she's
Ian
like, there's no, there's no way. They said,
Jason
The things are huge. There she was going. And I'm thinking about, how did they even get here? Because they,
Ian
I think the only thing that, the only thing that there are predators for them, are bees. Well, because they also hunt bees as well.
Jason
Well. They show how bees, you know, react to when these big things land on the hive and, oh yeah, what they do? The bees three
Stoney
or three of these things can destroy
Jason
a whole hive. Easy to see what those I'm saying. So in places where these, like the Asian Hornet exists, the local the other, like local bees, have developed mechanisms, yeah, to fight off these invaders.
Stoney
But our honeybees haven't,
Jason
yeah, not our honeybees, but the other, other Asian bees, oh yeah, they are massive that their stinger is almost an inch.
Ian
That's crazy anyway. So I'm saying I've never seen one, but I just, I worry that like one day, but see if they make
Stoney
it to Louisiana, we'll just figure out how to eat them. You know, Asian Hornet sauce
Jason
become no no, no. I was, I was, was reading an article Hornet boy. Speaking of animals, yeah, that Pablo Escobar is hippopotamus farm that he had on his deal. You know, those hippopotamus have been here for they've been over there for a long time now. They're not native to there, yeah, and they were, they were introduced by Pablo Escobar brought them in, yeah, well, they're starting to take over. No way. Now they're talking about having to kill some of them to cull the herd. Wow, because they're now threatening people in boats, yeah, because they're aggressive stuff. Yeah, they're aggressive. They, matter of fact, they're the number one killers, oh, yeah, of people, yep, even more so than crocs,
Ian
yeah, which is crazy. And they'll go
Jason
to toe to toe with a croc and win, yeah, yeah. And when, I mean, that's a big animal, I know. I mean,
Stoney
I saw a video that's a big animal, but just think the damage the tick is doing, yeah?
Jason
Well, that's what I'm saying. It's we are, we are dealing with now, ticks and this new allergy. And I, you know, I wish I could tell people a something happy about this, but it just seemed like this stuff is growing. And yeah, now I did watch some some shows regarding this, that there have been some documentation, documented, like, attempts to cure this, okay, that actually have been successful. Nice. So there have been people that have slowly reintroduced meat to their diet and have suffered no, no side effects, nice. So, you know, if you want to there's hope. There's hope there. I think there's once they understand it better and understand how it, it reacts in the body, or, I should say, how the body reacts to this molecule, I think they can probably find some means of neutralizing, yeah, that or suppressing your immune system to a degree. I don't know how
Ian
that was a joke I was making earlier, was like, just, just, just wait till one important person gets infected, and we'll expire the process real quick. We'll get a cure going. But the second someone who's higher up, all of a sudden has this, has this illness, it'll get it'll get figured out real quick.
Jason
Yeah, well, it's, you know, I mean, for people have this, mean, I can't imagine if that's what you love, is meat all of a sudden, now, you can't that's crazy, and you have to become a vegan for all eat fish or
Stoney
point 11,
Jason
but pork and, well, I'm sure the animals would appreciate all Right? Well, you know, I'm sure they would appreciate it,
Ian
but I don't think they
Stoney
appreciate, or don't appreciate anything. Yeah, their food.
Ian
I I'm a big I'm a big bird guy. I like Turkey. I like chicken. I've had some other, like, pretty good. I think I've had pheasant one time that was pretty good. So for me, like, I'm not saying I, heaven forbid, I don't want to get this either. But for me, it's if there was you can make it work. If there was some sort of tick that made me allergic to chicken, I think that would be the thing where I'm like, Well, guys, sorry, it's been a good run, but if I can make it anymore,
Jason
I eat a lot of chicken. I don't eat a lot of red meat. I really don't, but I do love a good a good steak. I agree. Every now and then I like a good burger. Yes, you know, I generally get a burger every week. Yeah. I mean, especially on Tuesdays my running group, but do that after we run.
Stoney
One thing Miranda and I are getting away from is the fast food stuff. No, we don't. We don't. We don't really do that unless we got to, right? But we just, I can't. There's too many questions. Oh yeah, what they're putting in it, what they're making with it. I think McDonald's did it for me when they stopped using beef talent, oh yeah, to fry their food. Oh yeah, there are French fries and stuff. And when you just look at it now, it just, it's not appealing anymore. Oh, yeah, I would rather go somewhere that makes a real burger. Yep, real meat. And, yeah, you pay a little bit more. But right now, do you really pay a little bit more? Yeah, when you go to McDonald's and you're going to pay, you know, restaurant prices now, oh, I know
Ian
that's what I if we're talking like, quote, unquote fast food that's in that fresher category that I like, but is also expensive. It's five guys for that same reason, no no sponsor, but, like, that's one thing for me, like any unless they want to be, well, if, unless you want to be, but that's for me, that's one of those things where, like, you can it's all pretty fresh, and it's all made right there. And I see
Stoney
real potatoes, real meat,
Ian
yeah, it's not salted. It's just anyways, like, it's places like that, that where I can trace back some of it that I think I'm more okay with, but you're right, things that I don't things I can't see what's going on with, or they keep things hidden. I'm like, Nah, I think
Jason
I'm all right, but I can't tell us I actually had fast food. Dude.
Ian
The funny thing is, if you ate it, if you ate it now that you've bought you like you've cleaned your body out of all of it, you actually may be sick or if you just to
Stoney
me, thank you. Was bit
Jason
by the tick I absolutely I had faster. I now used to eat it all the time growing up McDonald's windy.
Stoney
It was shocking. You announced a couple weeks ago that you almost went to a fast food restaurant.
Jason
I mean, I'm not saying it happened, like the example, if you travel, and of course, you know, you just, that's the hard
Ian
part is that it's convenience. It was price and convenience, but now it's more. So it's just convenience, right?
Stoney
That's what exactly,
Ian
anyways, well, an interesting topic we had today, yeah,
Jason
it's, this is something to look into. There's a lot of good videos. Oh, yeah, what it does, how it affects you and, but it's, yeah, it's an hour,
Ian
not to spread fear, but, right?
Jason
It's an hour. It's analogy, right? It's an allergy, like any other allergy, you know, and some people have a violent reaction to it. Some people have a somewhat moderate, you know, or little bit of a reaction. So, you know, everybody's different when it comes to this stuff. And, you know, I just hope that it's, I hope they find some, some way of trying to mitigate this the best they can. But if this is more as a result of government manipulation, then it's sort of like, you throw your hands up. It's like, we just have a death wish. We really do. I mean, I just, I don't think

it's the I think the government's part of it, but the government is just a tool for the ultra elite. That's just something in their tool bag to do this. And that's kind of the crazy part. These ultra edge, supposed educated, ultra elite people have been telling us to go vegan and all this for so long, they're basically just trying to take the choice away from us. Now they don't want this is not the land of the free. This is the land of you're going to do whatever the hell we tell you to do. And they're trying to take that choice away from us. And just, it's magical. It was, it was just a tick.
Jason
Oh no. Well, I just, I just think that. I think probably there's something going on right now? Yeah, I do. I think right now, this war in Iran, or whatever you want to call it, it's a front for something else. But, yeah, we
Ian
talked about that last week. What's the right hand doing? Yeah, or distracting you that?
Jason
Yeah, it's funny, like I mentioned about regarding all the UFO disclosures, and now the scientists are showing up dead, and it's attracting attention. And, yeah, we got a war going on, and it's like, you know, and what's going on here? So? And then, of course, what made the big news was the Trump picture of him, like Jesus Christ, and I'm sitting there going, shaking my head. I'm going, you can't do whoever, whoever came up with that picture, you can and authorize that release. I'm going, What in the world is this? I hope
Ian
that there wasn't any authorization. I hope he just did that, because
Jason
that would be I think somebody got to him to pull it down, but he didn't apologize. No, I think his His excuse was, it was supposed to be, he was a doctor, yeah, and it was Red Cross. And I'm going, well, you know, if that was it, somebody don't know what the Red Cross looks like, because that sure don't look like Red Cross for me.
Ian
But yeah, whatever that was, it's all that was
Stoney
all cover up. I said it in his first time as president. He just needed to stay off, yes, of what was it called back then, Twitter. Twitter, yeah, he just needed to stay off of Twitter. You know, he just needs to stay off his phone and
Jason
him and it just, you know, look, I mean, it's, it's, it's, I'm, I don't think he's listening to the right people right now. I truly believe that. I think he's got some people in his administration that are, are not the people that, yeah, that I think, represent the people that voted for him. I think he's got a bunch of Neo cons, and I think he's got a bunch of Christian Zionist and at the urging of Israel is doing this, and it's not necessarily what the United States needs, yeah, right now, and we got people came and pay their bills, yes, right? And I think that's what you need to focus on. Literally, 75% of what comes out of your mouth should be that. 25% should be the rest of the world. 75% should be what's going on here. But you know, this is what happens, right? So we'll see.
Ian
We'll see all. That being said, We're curious. Do you know anybody that has contracted Alpha gal? Have you heard anybody? Or do you know have you yourself been gone? You may be entitled to settlement. No, but we'd like to hear from you. We have comment sections on Spotify and YouTube where you can leave some responses if you have a really long form response. We have an email address get offended together@gmail.com where you can send those responses as well. We appreciate you listening, and until next week, thank you so much. Bye, bye,
Jason
goodbye everyone, and God bless

so what do we do with a story like alpha call syndrome, a tick bites you, and now a hamburger may send your body into open revolt. If that sounds insane, that's because it is insane. And yet here we are living in an age where the sentence a bug made me allergic to brisket is somehow not a punchline, but a diagnosis. And maybe that's the bigger lesson. The world is getting Stranger by the day. But strange does not automatically mean false anymore. Sometimes the truth is just weird enough to sound like satire. Now should that stop us from asking hard questions? Not a chance here at retrospect, we should ask, Who knew that when they knew that, why cases seem to be growing, why public awareness always seems to show up a little bit late to the party? Because when something this bizarre starts hitting real people. Skepticism is healthy, but skepticism cuts both ways. It does not mean blindly trusting the official version. It also means not marrying every internet theory just because it sounds wrapped up in suspicion with dramatic music. Alpha gal is real, the suffering is real. The science is real. The fact that it sounds crazy does not make it fake. It just means reality, once again, outdone conspiracy radio and honestly, at this point, maybe that's the most on brand thing about modern life. You survived the economy. The food pyramid lied to you. The labels are a maze now, apparently even the ticks are coming for your steak. Sleep tight, America. Thanks for hanging out with us today. Don't try to be my peace. Be at peace with yourself so you don't disturb mine.
