The Other Side of the Story with Dr. Jay Lehr and Tom Harris – Did you know that our homes are full of products derived from petroleum in their production? Things like construction materials such as roofing and housing insulation, linoleum flooring, furniture, appliances, and home decor such as pillows, curtains, rugs, and house paint. Even much of our…
6,000 products in our daily lives are made from oil derivatives that are manufactured out of crude oil. And how about the fuels needed for the 50,000 merchant ships and the 50,000 jets in the world? They are all dependent on fuels manufactured from crude oil, the same substance that Newsom wants to eliminate. Newsom is unable to understand that renewables cannot manufacture…
The Other Side of the Story with Dr. Jay Lehr and Tom Harris – Flying in the US, Europe, and Australia is much (much) safer than driving a car. Your chances of being in an accident during a flight are one in 1.2 million, and the chances of that accident being fatal are one in 11 million! Your odds of dying in a car crash are one in 5,000…
Astonishingly, those tens of thousands of flights equate to about 70% of the world’s air traffic. However, Command Center personnel do not talk to pilots on the radio, not even once. The 300 personnel at the Command Center adjacent to the Potomac TRACON act as collaborative decision-makers as they attempt to balance the flow of air traffic across the nation…
This topic is vitally important today as many churches across the world increasingly support the climate scare. Are they being scientific, as one would expect from those practicing authentic Christianity? Or are they, in fact, abandoning the scientific method, and straying further and further away from the foundations of their faith to the sort of idealism and…
The Other Side of the Story with Dr. Jay Lehr and Tom Harris – Coal, oil, and natural gas provided 81.2 percent of the world’s primary energy supply, the same share as in 1991. Today, petroleum fuels account for 90 percent of US transportation. More than 99 percent of aviation fuel comes from oil. More than 99 percent of international shipping fuel comes from oil or natural gas…
Renewable energy is headed for a breakdown. The 2022 world energy crisis may be just the first of several transnational energy shocks that demonstrate the futility of a future based on renewables. Energy shortages and astronomical costs may plague Europe for a decade. Green-minded states in the US and provinces in Australia may be next on the list for power system failures and escalating costs…
The Other Side of the Story with Dr. Jay Lehr and Tom Harris – In the battle for the hearts and minds of Americans against the woke, unscientific, and dangerous climate scare, no organization is more hated by extreme leftists than The Heartland Institute. That is because the Arlington Heights, Illinois-based free-market think tank has contributed more to…
The enemy has now taken over the government, the press, corporations, the education system, the military, and churches, and, through these organizations, now promotes extreme policies supposedly for our own good “to save the planet.” Anyone who questions this is canceled, fired, or subject to public shaming and worse…
The Other Side of the Story with Dr. Jay Lehr and Tom Harris – This topic is especially important because the industry is being held to standards that are unneeded yet cost everyone a fortune.

It is not well known to the public that the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has attempted to take over virtually all industries in America by claiming that exposure to particles in the air as small as 2.5 millionth of a meter can cause death in a matter of minutes, hours or days. It is called the PM2.5 rule. The EPA has succeeded with…
The Other Side of the Story with Dr. Jay Lehr and Tom Harris – The SEC supposedly promotes full public disclosure and protects investors against fraudulent and manipulative practices in the market. But is the SEC really doing this when it comes to their ESG proposed rule? And what on Earth are they doing promoting the climate scare?
The SEC approvingly cites several reports and numerous comments by prominent ESG advocates. However, the Commission seems unaware of the questionable premises on which much of that literature is based. For example: Favor climate risk assessments based on warm-biased models run with warm-biased emission scenarios. Societal factors such as increases in population and exposed wealth…

Energetic Health Institute Radio with Dr. H and Dr. Meg – The details of the devastation have been slow to reach the American public, and the recovery efforts begun by FEMA have been unimpressive (to say the least).

The only way to conquer fear is to…
