	Well, well, well, we have a really significant financial event that just happened.
	Kind of an earthquake, actually.
	We're going to go into that today.
	Welcome to Brighteon Broadcast News.
	It is Thursday.
	Yeah, December 11th, 2025.
	Wow, already Thursday.
	Welcome.
	My name is Mike Adams.
	I'm the founder of Brighteon and all the Brighteon platforms, and including the new very popular book creation site called brightlearn.ai, which now has, I think, 600 books available to freely download and read and share.
	And we'll be opening that up to allow anybody to create books very, very soon.
	I'll keep you posted about that.
	And in fact, I just used the engine earlier to publish a new book that's related to this broadcast.
	And that book is called Vanishing Vaults, The Ultimate Guide to Advanced Cashing and Misdirection for Hiding Gold and Silver.
	It's an incredible book.
	It's got five chapters.
	And you're going to love this book.
	And it's going to be very useful because here's what's happening.
	Well, let me back up actually.
	In COVID, during the COVID years, there was an economic implosion because of all the forced shutdowns and lockdowns, et cetera, supply chain disruption.
	And so at that time, the Federal Reserve announced that it would start purchasing billions of dollars of U.S. treasuries every month.
	And this was called quantitative easing or QE4.
	And this was basically flooding the banking system with liquidity.
	Just free money.
	We're just going to print money and hand it over to the banks to try to stimulate the economy.
	And by the way, that's why we have so much inflation today is because of what happened during COVID, all that money creation.
	It, of course, wound its way into the economy.
	More fiat currency dollars chasing the same limited supply of goods causes inflation, bad inflation.
	That's why groceries are so expensive.
	That's why your health insurance premiums are through the roof, etc.
	Well, that program ended in March of 2022.
	They decided it was enough stimulus, you know, two years already or roughly maybe a little less than two years into the COVID pandemic.
	And they realized they were going to crash all the economies if they didn't start stimulating things.
	And so that's why they pushed that for those nearly a couple of years.
	And oh, I should mention that the Federal Reserve, remember that when the Federal Reserve buys U.S. Treasury bonds, the Fed prints money and hands it over to the Treasury.
	And then the Treasury says, look, free money.
	And then it uses that to fund the bloated government.
	But then the Fed ends up with all these assets, which are treasury bonds.
	And the Fed ended up with about $9 trillion in treasuries by the beginning of 2022.
	$9 trillion for the international bankster cartel that's not even part of the federal government.
	But then after that, the Fed began to reduce that over time, which is called quantitative tightening.
	And it reduced that little by little until we get to today.
	And what just happened today, or yesterday, is that this is clearly pressure from Trump.
	The Fed announced it was going to start buying $40 billion a month in U.S. Treasury bills starting tomorrow.
	And it's going to continue for many months.
	We don't know how many, they didn't say, but this is COVID-level, massive helicopter money dumping into the economy.
	This is going to cause massive inflation, which of course leads to poverty of the middle class and the lower income people.
	Prices are going to surge from here.
	And that is probably why silver shot up to $62 an ounce.
	Yeah.
	And gold is over $4,240 or something in that range.
	But silver really shot up.
	I was shocked.
	I was watching it.
	Like, this thing's riding a rocket ship here.
	So silver has tripled now since I began advocating for it a few years ago.
	And silver has more than doubled just this year alone.
	Because I remember buying it under $30 earlier this year.
	So silver has doubled in less than a year.
	The money supply is going to explode.
	The treasury is just printing currency to buy treasuries.
	And this is causing the yields on treasuries to fall, where the current interbank lending rate, I think, is somewhere around 3.75%.
	And this is what Trump wants, is low interest rates on treasuries or yields so that he can refinance U.S. debt at a lower and lower rate.
	And this is why Trump put tremendous pressure on the Fed to do this.
	This is really a forced decision.
	And even though the Fed operates independently, there are other ways of pressuring Fed chairperson and Fed, the board of governors, et cetera, at the different offices around the country.
	And Trump applied all that pressure to all the right points and got this decision made where the Fed not only lowered interest rates by a quarter point, but then announced massive money flooding into the system.
	So the upshot of what this means is that the dollar crash is not going to happen right away.
	In fact, the dollar may not ever sort of suddenly crash.
	It's just going to be printed into oblivion.
	It's going to just go into hyperinflation.
	And actually, that's been clear for a long time.
	That's how this is going to end.
	The dollar is going to a value of zero ultimately, or very close to zero.
	And the hyperinflation is now taking another quantum leap forward because now the Fed is printing money to buy treasuries because there are no more buyers, or let's say not enough buyers internationally to bid enough on the treasuries to keep the yields low.
	So we've arrived at that moment where the snake is eating its own tail.
	We're printing money to buy the treasuries that fund the interests on the debt.
	But in order to do that, we have to create even more debt.
	And so we're in this final blowout debt spiral stage of the end of this empire.
	Now, this stage can still last a while.
	It could last a few years.
	It's hard to say.
	But I doubt it's going to last a few more years.
	It seems like we're headed into a lot of financial crisis type of breaking points in 2026.
	I guess we'll have to wait and see.
	But the fact that silver is $62 or $61 and change, depending on what happens by the time you hear this, that tells you something really astonishing right there.
	That they can't even control the price of silver anymore.
	They can't keep it down.
	And everybody who's got any sense at all is dumping dollars and they're going into either gold or silver.
	And frankly, a lot of people are selling gold and buying silver at this point because they see that silver has vastly more upside potential right now compared to gold.
	So whether you have gold or silver, you're very happy about the gains that have happened so far.
	And I'm inclined to say that this is just getting started.
	So hold on to your metal.
	And to help you hold on to your metal, I've published a new book for you.
	Now that book is called Vanishing Vaults.
	Like I said earlier, it's available right now at Books.brightlearn.ai.
	You can download the book.
	There's a pdf, you can read it online also, and let me just mention a little bit of the table of contents because it's so amazing.
	So it talks about the psychology of hiding metals, how to use misdirection and illusion, the materials and tools needed, long-term preservation, how to protect metals from corrosion, advanced indoor hiding techniques, false walls, hidden safes, floor safes what do we have here?
	Magnetic hiding spots in metal furniture and fixtures.
	How to disguise gold as common tools, hidden compartments, freezer storage you know, hiding metal in in your freezer, in a pot of frozen soup, let's say.
	I mean, maybe that's not so advanced, but it's a common technique using hvac and plumbing misdirection.
	And then chapter three is outdoor concealment strategies, how to hide metals under water collection tanks.
	How to integrate gold and silver into concrete, hiding assets in hollow trees or fake rocks or natural landmarks, using septic systems, using pvc pipes, garden and landscaping techniques.
	How to use gps and mapping tools to self-document, if you wish to.
	And then how to confuse thieves with decoys, how to create fake gold coins and bars psychological tactics a lot more let's see.
	Then there's maintenance and retrieval points to think about emergency retrieval plans, protecting against floods and fires and pests and things like that.
	So this book is really comprehensive and it quotes from people like David Morgan and so on.
	The references are quite well documented for this book.
	So again, check it out.
	It's at Books.brightlearn.ai and it's called vanishing vaults and, like all the books at brightlearn.ai, it's free.
	It's free to download, free to share, free to read, free to put on a torrent website if you want.
	So have fun with it and actually keep a copy so you can access it locally on your own hard drive.
	Now getting back to the FED and what they've done, announcing this 40 billion dollars a month in Treasury purchases, I want to remind you how insane this is, that we, the United States OF OF America, that we, the people, we don't have our own money creation system.
	The currencies created by a private international banking cartel known as the Federal Reserve, they create the money out of nothing.
	They hand it over to the treasury and then the treasury owes that as debt back to the Fed.
	So right there, it's a total ripoff.
	The American people, everything's being stolen from them because of the existence of the Federal Reserve.
	When this system collapses and we rebuild a new system, obviously we have to have honest money, which means no central banks at all, no Federal Reserve, no government treasury.
	It has to be some kind of system of money that governments cannot counterfeit, that they cannot print.
	Gold qualifies.
	They can't print gold.
	Also, they can't print Bitcoin, which is the only reason Bitcoin has any value.
	Because if they could print Bitcoin, they would have already printed it into oblivion.
	And we would have Bitcoin inflation where every Bitcoin would be worth zero.
	You know, that would have already happened.
	But gold can't be counterfeited either.
	And silver also, it has to be found.
	It's an element, right?
	It's physical.
	So this is why gold and silver are particularly safe against inflation.
	And this is why people are now rushing into buying silver and gold.
	Now, I recorded a special report earlier today before I got the news about the Federal Reserve.
	And in that special report, which I'm going to play here, I mentioned, I think I said, like, should you buy gold and silver right now?
	I don't know.
	But now that I know what the Fed is doing with the $40 billion a month in purchasing treasuries and which, you know, just insane levels of money printing and lowering interest rates, now I know for sure this is the final blowout stage of the dollar.
	And now I have to say that metals are the life raft here.
	It's kind of like either get into gold and silver or just plan to lose everything.
	We're going to face a stock market crash in 2026.
	We're going to face continued dollar erosion or collapse, massive inflation headed towards hyperinflation.
	We're going to face supply chains fracturing, the wipeout of many small businesses, wipeout of commercial banks or let's say commercial real estate lending banks and other institutions.
	We're already seeing wipeouts of like auto lending companies that are going bankrupt.
	And another one, First Brands involved in auto parts, is also going bankrupt, it looks like.
	This is only going to accelerate.
	And the protection against that is gold and silver.
	So at this point, I'm kind of, I mean, I have to modify what I said in my special report.
	At this point, I have to say, look, silver and gold, they're a life raft.
	And it's kind of like, how much are you willing to pay for a life raft?
	Well, whatever the cost of the ticket is.
	It doesn't even matter what the cost of the ticket is, frankly, if we're talking about the collapse of the dollar and gold and silver being the only safe haven out of that.
	Or, I mean, you could argue crypto or land or other things, but gold and silver are the absolutely reliable safe haven choices for this.
	So at this point, I would say, you know, obviously the decision is always up to you.
	Do you have enough gold and silver?
	I don't know.
	That's your call.
	I would just say prepare to lose everything that's either invested in dollars or held in banks in dollar denominations.
	Prepare to lose huge amounts on stocks.
	Prepare to lose whatever is in an account that has counterparty risk, like an investment account where you sign up for a brokerage and then they invest for you.
	Prepare to lose it all.
	I don't know that that's going to happen with certainty, but it's most definitely a possibility.
	Whereas gold and silver in your hands, you can't lose that because it's physical, it's real.
	And the only concern is how do you keep it safe?
	How do you prevent thieves from getting it?
	How do you prevent it from washing away in a flood?
	Well, so that's why I published the book, Vanishing Vaults.
	It gives you all those answers.
	And again, that's available right now at books.brightlearn.ai.
	Now, I've got an interview with Andy Wakefield coming up today.
	He visited me in studio.
	We had a great conversation.
	Got to play that full interview for you here today.
	Before we get to that, I think I'll start by playing the silver special report that I recorded earlier.
	So let's go to that now and then we will continue on the other side.
	Well, with silver hitting $61 plus, almost really hitting 62, maybe it has.
	This is actually saying the dollar is collapsing.
	So for all the times that we've talked about this, really since 2008, even then I said that the fact that they didn't really resolve this issue with the subprime mortgage collapse and the GFC, they didn't really resolve it.
	What they did is they just kicked the can down the road.
	I knew at that time that it was going to lead to this day because it looks like 2026 is going to be the year that it all unravels.
	Looks like it.
	We won't know for sure.
	It's clear that Trump is pushing a lot of stimulus money.
	There's a lot of, well, Fed stimulus to the banks, and then there's stimulus to the public that's coming with the so-called tariff dividend.
	They're just going to basically fly helicopters over the country and just throw money out the windows to try to keep the system afloat a little bit longer.
	And that is going to cause silver and gold to continue to climb because the dollar itself will be, of course, collapsing.
	So although the timing is never certain, the overall trend is exactly as we have talked about and as you have known, because I would imagine most of you listening to this, you have purchased gold or silver over the last several years.
	And very likely, a lot of what you purchase has doubled in value in dollars or more.
	Some of you purchase silver under $20.
	That's gone up triple.
	I mean, these are almost crypto level returns, you know, but in metals.
	Now, will silver stay at $60?
	Probably not.
	It'll probably have some kind of a correction because markets don't always move in a straight line.
	They go up and down.
	There's consolidation.
	There are corrections.
	I wouldn't be surprised if silver comes back down to $50 or even goes under $50.
	But at this point, if it goes under $50, I'm buying.
	You see what I mean?
	So we have a new floor in right now.
	I don't think silver is going back to $40.
	Maybe, but I doubt it.
	So if it goes under $50, I'm probably going to buy some more.
	Just like I bought under $30 earlier this year.
	I thought, wow, that's a great price.
	It's under $30.
	This is a bargain.
	It's on sale.
	So whatever you want to do is up to you.
	If you have stacked gold and silver, you're doing really well.
	Now, the thought that needs to really be in your mind as we move forward, you know, here's the thing.
	Silver goes up a little bit, you're happy.
	Silver goes up a lot, you're really happy.
	Silver goes up to crazy levels, you're worried.
	Why?
	Why are you worried?
	Because the system's breaking.
	If the system's breaking, then you need to start being concerned about counterparty risk.
	For example, where is your silver?
	You know, do you actually own physical silver in a vault somewhere?
	If so, good.
	But if you only own silver paper or, you know, stocks that are silver stocks or what have you, silver funds, that's not the same thing.
	Then you have to be concerned about counterparty risk.
	So if you're sitting on silver shares or silver ETFs right now, you might want to start thinking about converting those to actual silver.
	Now, of course, there can be tax consequences for doing such a thing because if you're liquidating a position, there may be tax consequences.
	One of the things that you can do on this, and I strongly recommend you look into this, and I don't make any money off of this, by the way, but my co-host on decentralized TV, Todd Pittner, he has a vehicle.
	Well, his attorney, business partner, sets up these vehicles for people.
	They're called UNAs, unincorporated nonprofit associations.
	And they're set up under the laws of California, but they're available to all Americans.
	And it costs something to set them up.
	But once you set them up, you can shift all your gold and silver into that UNA where you control it, but you don't own it.
	It's not under your social.
	And it doesn't go on your tax return.
	You can buy and sell within the UNA.
	You can accumulate assets, including houses or gold and silver, etc.
	But there are no personal tax consequences to that because it's all part of a nonprofit association that's exempt.
	It's actually called a 575E, where the E is IRS exempt.
	So even though I'm not a financial advisor, I want to be clear, and I can't guarantee every single thing about this vehicle because I'm not the expert on it.
	But if you want to check in with the expert, go to Todd's website.
	It's called my575E.com.
	And he's got a, I think it's a 90-minute video you can watch there.
	It's a presentation, just explains everything.
	My575E.com.
	And there's kind of a mad rush right now to get this done before the end of the year.
	So if you want to do this before the end of the year and like donate your gold and silver into this vehicle that you control, where you are the secretary of the vehicle, and you actually get an IRS tax number for it, and you can use that to open bank accounts.
	So it can open bank accounts.
	You can open crypto accounts with it.
	You can hold gold and silver, real estate, vehicles, everything, homes, everything.
	But if you're going to do that this year, you probably need to get moving on it.
	So check out that website, my575E.com.
	Now, should you be buying gold and silver right now?
	I can't say yes or no.
	That's not, I can't say that.
	At this price for silver, I'm not buying.
	I'm waiting.
	It might be a mistake.
	But again, I bought a lot earlier this year, so I'm doing fine.
	But if I had a lot of extra cash right now, would I buy silver?
	I don't know, maybe.
	Or I might wait for a pullback, but that pullback might never come.
	might be $70 next week for all we know.
	So I don't know.
	Use your best judgment.
	Get the best advice you can.
	Make your own decision.
	The thing is, sitting on dollars is a losing proposition.
	So if you sit on dollars, try not to sit on them for very long.
	The dollars will lose, lose, lose.
	No question about it.
	The silver might go up, might go down.
	Don't know exactly, but at least it's out of the dollar.
	And you could make the same argument with Bitcoin, I suppose, but I'm not advocating Bitcoin as much.
	I'm advocating metals because they're physical, they're real, etc.
	What will Bitcoin do in the future?
	I have no idea.
	And I prefer privacy crypto anyway, like Xano or Monero.
	But if you want to go into Bitcoin, hey, that's, you know, you can pull up Michael Saylor videos and he thinks it's going to a million dollars a coin.
	Okay.
	Maybe it will.
	I don't know.
	But I know gold and silver are going to be around for sure, regardless of what happens to blockchains or the power grid or cyber warfare or whatever.
	So here's the thing about counterparty risk.
	You also need to be thinking about banks going down.
	So banks will fail.
	And as banks fail, then your money can vanish.
	FDIC insurance, number one, they only have enough reserves to cover a very tiny fraction, I think less than 2% of the banks failing in America.
	And they only cover $250,000 in each account.
	And there's a limit for the number of accounts that are covered in any particular banking institution.
	So if you happen to be sitting on quite a lot of money, let's say you've got half a million dollars in an account and the bank is FDIC insured, then of course, if that bank fails, you lose a quarter of a million dollars.
	Whereas if you have gold and silver in your hands, it can't fail.
	There's zero counterparty risk.
	And so gold and silver are the only globally recognized tier one asset that has zero counterparty risk.
	Zero.
	You don't have to rely on somebody else to keep their word in order for gold and silver to maintain their value.
	Where you do with bonds, obviously, and stocks and ETFs and almost everything else you can think of, not gold and silver.
	So gold and silver are bank failure proof as long as you don't store your metals in the bank vault.
	So this is why I strongly urge you to think seriously about using safe deposit boxes.
	Some people will store gold in a safe deposit box, and that's bonkers, because we've seen cases where the FBI would raid a bank and they would seize everybody's safe deposit box contents just because they were looking for some money laundering criminal or something.
	They would take all the boxes.
	There's a famous court case about this.
	I think it was involving a California bank.
	The FBI took everything from everybody, and then people had to work like crazy to even get some of it back.
	And some people lost everything.
	So remember, if you can't touch it, you don't really own it, you know, technically.
	And the FBI or somebody else can just come in and they can just take it.
	And banks get robbed all the time.
	Well, I mean, perhaps not safe deposit boxes.
	They don't get robbed all the time, but it does happen.
	And I guess the key question is, is it safer in a safe deposit box than it is at your home, wherever you live?
	Well, if you live in an apartment complex, then maybe a safe deposit box is safer.
	You know, there's only so many places you can hide things in an apartment, or if you live in a retirement center or something, yeah, you can't really, what is there, a closet?
	You know, you can't open up the walls and stick your gold behind the drywall and then repatch it.
	You know, somebody's going to notice and ask questions.
	So use your best judgment, obviously.
	There are lots of places to hide gold and silver.
	And especially if you have land.
	Obviously, you can bury it in lots of different places.
	And I've talked about this somewhat, but you know what I'm going to do?
	I'm going to publish a book on our new book site, brightlearn.ai.
	In fact, I'm going to do this today.
	I'm going to publish a book about how to hide gold and silver all over your home, in your home, in your freezer, in your yard, hide it inside appliances or whatever.
	You know, it's going to be a comprehensive book on caching gold and silver, different places to hide it.
	And some people put gold inside their TVs and things like that.
	It's like, well, this is a really heavy TV.
	You know, what's going on?
	It's full of gold.
	It's like a million-dollar TV.
	It's a lot of gold.
	Some people put it in a pot of soup in the freezer and they sink the gold in the bottom of the pot, which actually makes good sense because it's much harder to carry a pot, a frozen pot of soup, than it is to just steal some gold coins.
	It takes effort for the soup to melt, you know, or to chip it out with an ice pick.
	I'm getting a gold, you know, mining for gold with an ice pick in the kitchen.
	There are other ideas that I've talked about before.
	Like if you have a rainwater tank, what you can do is before you put the tank in place, you can bury gold under the tank in some kind of secure storage device or PVC pipe or whatever.
	And then you put the tank on top of that.
	You put dirt back on top and then you put the tank on top.
	And then when the tank gets filled with water from your roof gutters, now you have maybe 5,000 pounds of water on top of your gold.
	And that's hard for people to steal.
	Not impossible if they know about it, but hard to steal.
	But you can still retrieve it when you want to.
	You just have to drain the water tank.
	And maybe that's an acceptable level of security, you know.
	So there are lots of really great ideas for how to hide gold and silver or sort of time delays like the water tank idea.
	And there are other ideas and some of them are gross, so I'm not going to mention them.
	But there are lots of ways to hide gold and silver.
	So counterparty risk is the theme here for 2026 in terms of protecting your assets.
	And be sure to check for my book at books.brightlearn.ai.
	It'll be under my author page, Mike Adams, and it'll be a book about how to hide gold and silver all over the place with the best ideas that we can come up with.
	It should be fun.

	Take care all right now shifting gears over to the brightlearn.ai engine, the book creation engine that is blowing people's minds.
	I've received so much feedback now from people that are just saying it.
	It's extraordinary.
	It feels like they're living in the future, feels like a whole different timeline opened up.
	And for creators most creators have had a lot of book ideas on their minds for many years this is a way to actually create those books using your notes, using your knowledge, your wisdom, whatever the case may be.
	You can feed that into the prompt and you can direct the book, but you can take what a process.
	That used to require maybe months and now it happens in an hour because of this technology that we invented and that's the technology that's available at brightlearn.ai.
	Well, we've just added some new features or i'm in the process of adding them right now which is that on your author page.
	Now well you, you can edit your author profile and you can add addresses, donate addresses for for readers to donate to you.
	You can add a Xano address, a monero address and a bitcoin address and then they can send you crypto and you get all that crypto, whatever they send you, because we we're not involved in that.
	We're just publishing your addresses so people can donate to you.
	But that feature is going live today, so go to your author page.
	If you are an author or creator on this site, go to your author page and you'll see a link there to log in.
	You can edit your profile.
	You can put in all your all your crypto stuff there and start receiving crypto.
	How cool is that?
	I prefer private crypto like Xana or monero, but some people use bitcoin, so that's why we're offering that option anyway.
	I've got a special report on that as well with the latest feature updates at brightlearn.ai, and I also want to let you know we're going to be sending out a book token to every creator that's registered who has a channel on Brighteon.com, our video website.
	So if, if you have an account on brighttown.com.
	You're going to get a book token in your email address or in your email box, probably this friday, but it might take until monday.
	We're not sure exactly when we're going to send it, but I'm hoping we send it this Friday.
	So if you sign up for Brighteon before Friday, then you will get a token.
	And this is just for people who have channels on Brighteon, who are creators there.
	It's not to every subscriber who has subscribed to the Brighteon email list.
	It's to the creators.
	Then on top of that, we're going to be announcing or distributing free book tokens to everybody who has an account on Brighteon.social.
	So if you haven't yet joined Brighteon.social, that's free to join.
	You can go there right now.
	You can sign up with an email address.
	And then probably within a week or so, we'll be emailing you a free book token.
	Well, a token that generates a full book, whatever book you want.
	You'll get that via email.
	So that's coming in about a week or so.
	So let me play the special report here, which it does repeat some of what I just said, but in more detail.
	So let's play that report and then we'll continue on the other side.
	Mike Adams here, the creator of BrightLearn.ai with an update on the platform.
	By the way, I'm also the creator of the other Brighteon AI tools.
	They're all free to use and you can find them all at brightion.ai.
	That's the word Bright followed by E-O-N.ai.
	Now, the big feature improvement to announce today is that we have added donation buttons for you.
	If you're an author, a creator, as we say, if you're creating books on the platform, then all you have to do is go to your author profile page.
	That's your author page.
	And you're going to see a link right there that says, click here if I'm the author and I want to edit my profile.
	You just click there.
	And then all you have to do is enter a token and your email address, a token that you used to create a book and your email address.
	That's your login.
	And then you're logged in and then you can edit your profile.
	You can put in a description of yourself and you can put in your website link, your X link, your Brighteon social link.
	And the new stuff that we've just added is that you can add a Monero link for donations or a Xano.
	Well, when I say link, I mean address.
	So you're going to put in your receive address for your Xano wallet and your Monero wallet.
	And once that goes in, then on your author page, it will say, hey, donate to support this author.
	And that will be there for every book of yours as well.
	So on the opening page of every book, it'll say, donate to this author here, use Xano or Monero.
	Now, will I add Bitcoin?
	Yeah, probably.
	I probably will.
	The thing is, I really like to encourage people to use privacy crypto because of the privacy.
	And Bitcoin is not private crypto, but, you know, ultimately, I will support Bitcoin as well because I don't want to make that decision.
	I don't want to censor Bitcoin.
	I'm not anti-Bitcoin.
	I'm just pro-privacy crypto.
	So anyway, I'll add Bitcoin as well.
	And then people can donate to you in whatever way they wish.
	The thing is, if you're receiving a lot of donations via Bitcoin, then, you know, that's all monitored.
	That's all visible.
	And, you know, you better comply with all the certain regulations that are necessary for, you know, okay, that's on you.
	Because we don't see any of the crypto transactions or donations and we don't keep any of it.
	So 100% goes to you.
	We don't take a percentage.
	It's actually impossible for us to take a percentage because it doesn't come through us.
	And I did that on purpose.
	I don't want your donations.
	You know, I want you to get donations.
	If people love your books, they should donate directly to you.
	I think that's great.
	And also, I don't want to have to comply with freaking tax agencies.
	I mean, no, no, thank you.
	I don't work for the IRS.
	So I don't want to take money from the public and then distribute it to people and then collect all your tax documents and enforce all that BS and then do all the reporting.
	No, no, no, no.
	That's not what I do.
	I'm a vibe coder.
	I develop awesome platforms to empower creators and to decentralize knowledge.
	I am not a tax enforcer and I'm not an accountant and I have no desire to be so.
	So that's why.
	We don't take any money from your donations.
	How much will you get?
	I have no idea.
	That's up to, I guess, how great your books are and how many people that you have supporting you.
	And, you know, you can drive people to your author page.
	You're welcome to do that.
	I can assure you, there will never be any ads of ours on your author page.
	The platform will remain ad-free.
	So you can recommend your author page.
	You can feel totally safe about that.
	The only thing that's going to be there is all your books and all your author profile information.
	And that's it.
	And so, you know, promote your author page and you'll probably get more donations.
	Or promote your books also, you know, on the platform.
	And you'll probably get more donations.
	So anyway, that's one feature.
	The other thing that we are doing right now is we're doing the automatic upgrading to version 2.0 books.
	So here's what's interesting.
	Let me back up and explain this.
	So when you create a book on this platform, BrightLearn.ai, the book is not static.
	The book continues to be updated with new information as we index more documents.
	So, and also we recently upgraded the entire engine with a new architect layer.
	And the architect plans the book really well.
	Now, let me be clear.
	When we upgrade your book, we don't change the title or the cover art or the table of contents or that stuff.
	What we do is we rewrite the subchapters using the architectural advisor information, which enhances that subchapter.
	And we pull new resources, references that we've indexed so that there are more references and your chapter becomes more full because it's got more citations and resources for the research.
	So we do, from time to time, automatically rewrite the subchapters of your book to enhance them.
	We never change the tone.
	We always use your original prompt as the primary guide when rewriting subchapters.
	So you can rest assured that the book is never going to deviate from your original intent.
	In fact, we save your prompt and that's used as the seed for rewriting every subchapter when we upgrade those subchapters.
	So your book's only going to get better.
	It's never going to get weird or worse or whatever.
	It's only going to get better and have more references.
	And because we're adding millions of additional documents into our indexing over the next couple of months, your book is going to be just automatically more and more impressive every time we upgrade it.
	And the only way you'll know, I suppose, is if you download the PDF every once in a while and you look at it, it's like, hey, wow, this is a whole new PDF.
	Or, you know, the chapters have more references now.
	Or the chapters, the flow is better now.
	You know, there's less repetition from section to section, things like that.
	That's some of the feedback we've already received.
	Everybody's loving the rewrite.
	Everybody.
	Because our first version of the engine, version one, it was, it didn't have the architect.
	And then I added the architect about a week ago.
	Yeah, roughly a week ago.
	And since then, I saw that the new books, which are version two books, are so awesome that I said, man, I got to go back.
	I've got to redo the version one books with the architect.
	And so that's what's happening right now.
	Now, will there be a version three?
	Yeah, absolutely.
	At some point, there can be a version three because we're adding millions of new documents to the indexing.
	So, yeah, that's eventually that's going to happen.
	That might be six months down the road.
	It's not going to be a frequent thing.
	But there's some other features that we're trying to build in that are currently cost prohibitive that we want to add.
	And that includes diagrams and illustrations in the books.
	So there are a lot of books that really are begging for illustrations or diagrams that, you know, especially how-to books and things like that, where it shows, you know, it's talking about how to sharpen a knife on a stone or something.
	It would be really great to have, you know, a sketch or an image that depicts that scene.
	And even though we have the technology to do that right now, it's currently too expensive for us because the per image cost is, it would just blow away our budget.
	However, those costs are coming down significantly month by month.
	And the image quality and the image architecture is getting much, much better across various AI engines, including Grok, by the way.
	So as those costs become more reasonable for us, we are going to begin to upgrade books with illustrations, especially the instructional books.
	So what we'll do is we'll have an AI agent go through the books subchapter by subchapter, and they will look for opportunities of where illustrations could be very useful for these books.
	And when we find those, then it'll automatically create an illustration and then it'll upgrade the book with the illustrations.
	But again, that's a few months away just because of cost.
	Or if you know somebody that wants to donate a lot of money to our nonprofit that funds this whole thing, you can donate and we'll give you credit.
	You know, we'll give you, you'll be publicly named as a donor to the project.
	The minimum donation is $10,000.
	It goes to the Consumer Wellness Center, which is our nonprofit.
	It is tax deductible.
	So if you want to do a year-end donation to us and you want to get credit for it, there's going to be an interstitial page when the public, when they generate free books, it's going to show them who's paying for the compute.
	That could be you.
	Again, the minimum is $10,000 if you want to do it.
	If you don't want to do it, that's fine.
	We're going to donate.
	But our donations are limited and that's why we can't do illustrations yet.
	Nevertheless, if you want to donate to us before the end of the year, maybe you can email us support at brightlearn.ai.
	Support at brightlearn.ai.
	Tell us what you want to do.
	If you want to make a donation, we'll tell you who to write it to.
	It's going to be the Consumer Wellness Center nonprofit.
	We can give you the tax ID, the federal tax ID for your accountant and all that stuff.
	And then we will incorporate your name or your organization name as a donor in the next rendition of the engine as we open it up to the public.
	So feel free to do that if you want.
	If you're able to, if you love that idea, great.
	We welcome it.
	So if we get a lot more money for donations, then let's say if we get, I don't know, $50,000 or $100,000, then we could probably really turn on illustrations for a lot of books right now and just start burning through the, you know, the donation money to create books with illustrations in them.
	You might wonder, like, how much does it cost to add illustrations to a book?
	Well, it depends on what engine you use, but actually the good engines right now are about 15 cents per illustration.
	So, you know, if you if you put 10 illustrations in a book, you're adding $1.50 to that book, which doesn't seem like much for a book, perhaps, but you multiply that by thousands of books and, you know, it adds up, right?
	But what we hope is that that cost is going to get down to something like one-tenth of that, like 1.5 cents per illustration, which would be, you know, so amazing.
	And then we could, you know, we could do a lot more with a lot less money.
	But the bottom line is as we are able, as we have either the internal funding or the donation funding, we're going to do all these things.
	So thank you for using our engine.
	Tell everybody about it.
	We're all about decentralized knowledge and bypassing censorship and empowering humanity in multiple languages with the knowledge that they need to be free, to be abundant, to be healthy, to be alive.
	All of this matters.
	So thank you for your support.
	I'm Mike Adams, the creator of everything, all the engines at Brighteon.ai.
	So thank you for listening.
	Take care.
	And remember that a free tier is opening up very soon within a number of days here.
	I'll announce it on this podcast.
	And so you'll be able to use this process to create free books.
	The free books without tokens, I believe we're going to start by only allowing the three chapter books.
	So they're shorter, much shorter.
	And they use a lower grade cover art generation engine.
	So the cover art isn't as good.
	But we're hoping that we can upgrade those things over time as compute costs go down and as we receive donations from sponsors who want to help sponsor this entire project here, which is through our nonprofit Consumer Wellness Center.
	And those donations are tax deductible, by the way.
	So if you want to become a sponsor, you can email us at support at brightlearn.ai.
	And the minimum sponsorship for an organization is $10,000.
	And that will cover many thousands of books.
	And we can have that conversation with you if you want to become a sponsor.
	All right.
	Now, but remember, the whole site is ad-free.
	However, there's sponsorship credit that is, you know, we name the sponsors and thank them for their gift during the book, the free book generation process.
	So you do get some exposure and a thank you for your tax-deductible gift.
	Kind of like, you know, sponsoring, I guess sponsoring any kind of nonprofit initiative, you get mentioned and thanked for your donation.
	Being that it's the end of the year now, might be a good time to make donations like that if you wish to.
	We are intending to scale this up to reach a billion people, as you know.
	And that's going to take some dollars just to cover all the compute and bandwidth costs.
	It's going to take some money.
	We're funding it right now, and we're doing fine with that, thanks to your support.
	But to really scale it up, we're going to need some additional funding sources.
	Now, also, I've got a video showing you how to use brightlearn.ai.
	And even though the interface has already been updated since I filmed this video last week, we've already added some new things.
	But it's overall, it shows you how it works.
	So I'm going to play that video now for those of you who want to be creators of books.
	So we're going to give you all a demonstration of the book engine, the book creation engine that we built at brightlearn.ai.
	Here's the website, brightlearn.ai.
	And as it says, start here.
	And all you do is start entering your prompt here for the book that you want.
	Now, currently you do need a token in order to generate a book.
	And that's in the pilot phase, but we will open up a free tier very soon.
	And the tokens are given through our store, healthrangerstore.com.
	The token holders, then one token equals one book.
	So anyway, Todd, since we just interviewed Charlie Robinson, I was thinking we should do a prompt related to the topics that we talked about with him.
	What do you say?
	Yeah, please do.
	All right.
	So I'm going to do a prompt on, let's call it, let's say depopulation because he writes about that.
	So I'm typing it in here.
	A book about a book about depopulation covering why globalists want to achieve depopulation of humans, covering the depopulation vectors like vaccines, pesticides.
	What did we say?
	The LGBT anti-family agenda, engineered food scarcity.
	What else did we say in there?
	Big pharma.
	Oh, yeah.
	Mass medication, induced infertility, pandemics, chemtrails, etc.
	All to reduce human populations.
	All right.
	So it's creating the book title now.
	And that'll happen very quickly.
	And that's using our AI engine to generate the title.
	Here's the title, Silent Erasure, the Globalist Blueprint for Human Depopulation and the Rise of the Machine.
	I think we could do a better title than Silent Erasure.
	The Silent Culling.
	Or just, how about the word silent culling?
	Okay.
	And then the Globalist Blueprint for Human Depopulation and the Rise of the Machines.
	Okay.
	Then when I click continue, it's going to generate the cover art.
	Now, this can take a minute or two.
	And our engine generates the prompt for the cover art to have a very detailed cover art picture.
	Yeah, I've seen the books you've created so far.
	And it's just like you can just look at the cover and zoom in and you've got so many stories within that cover, right?
	Yeah.
	Yeah, exactly.
	I mean, there's a lot of depth and a lot of symbolism typically in the covers.
	And that's why it takes this time to generate.
	In fact, even right now, it's still analyzing the book concepts.
	It's creating.
	Okay.
	And now it's actually submitting the cover art API request to a graphics engine just now.
	So it took that time.
	But the funny part about it is, you know, you're kind of apologizing about maybe it taking one to two minutes, whereas you had to hire a real artist and explain this book to him and ship the book to him.
	And, you know, you're talking about weeks.
	I know.
	Okay.
	Here's the art.
	All right.
	Check it out.
	Silent culling, the globalist blueprint for human depopulation and the rise of the machines.
	Wow.
	Check it out.
	Drones, DNA.
	Down here, it's got 5G.
	It's got GMO corn.
	It's got a human figure being taken over by a digital cyborg entity and people falling off the cracks of reality.
	I mean, wow.
	Are you seeing all this?
	This is crazy.
	That's wild.
	It's got a giant globalist eye up here.
	He just needs to be wearing a LGBQ flag.
	All right.
	So I'm going to click continue.
	And then I'm going to choose the research types that I want to use in writing the book.
	I'm going to use all of them, books, interviews, articles, and podcasts.
	And then I'm going to choose Doomsday for the, I'm going to use my name, Mike Adams, but doomsday is the writing style.
	And then I'm going to put in my email address here.
	And then I'm going to click continue.
	Okay, this is Mike here picking this back up.
	I continued this book, generation, at home, a little bit later after the show.
	And so I actually ended up with a different cover and a slightly different title because I wanted to add some things to it about the transhumanism aspects.
	So let me just show you the result of what we ended up with.
	It's this book called Silent Culling, The Globalist Blueprint for Human Depopulation and the Rise of the Machines.
	That's the title I ultimately wanted to go with.
	And as you can see from this cover design here, it's also a really impressive cover.
	Now I could regenerate the cover.
	You know, it'll be a little bit different each time.
	And you'll get different covers each time that you use it.
	But every cover is incredibly impressive.
	And as you'll note from this page, there's also a text summary of the book that's generated on this book index page at brightlearn.ai.
	Well, actually, it's at books.brightlearn.ai.
	And then you'll also notice on the right column of this page, it shows related books from Mike Adams, and it shows some of the other books that I've written sorted by popularity there.
	So it's a very powerful engine.
	It really works very well.
	It's not 100% free of glitches.
	We've got little glitches and categorization problems, but we're fixing all that.
	It's a powerful engine.
	You notice you can read the text.
	You can download the PDF.
	And for some books, you can listen to the audio.
	So I can't wait for you to use this tool.
	You will find it very empowering.
	It will unleash your creativity.
	So it's going to be amazing, actually, when all of you get to use this tool.
	If you have tokens from healthrangerstore.com, then you can start using this tool right now.
	Just go to brightlearn.ai with your token.
	One token allows you to generate one book and you're good to go.
	So I'll bring you more updates on this.
	You can also follow our Bright Learn news at our new Bright Learn channel on Brighteon.com or Rumble and other video platforms.
	Not YouTube, of course, we're banned there, but other free speech video platforms.
	So watch for more news on this, more announcements, more features, multilingual features coming out, more audio.
	And then in 2026, some video creation that's going to turn these books into mini documentaries and then eventually into multiple languages of mini documentaries.
	So it's going to be a very exciting year for decentralization and bypassing censorship.
	So thanks for watching today.
	I'm Mike Adams, the AI developer, the builder, the engineer of BrightLearn.ai.
	And you can find all of our AI tools.
	They're all free at brightion.ai.
	So thanks for watching and take care.
	So here's something while I was watching silver prices.
	I was just like, oh, get out the popcorn.
	They were headed for $63 in overnight trading.
	And then they pulled back from that.
	Honestly, I'm just, I'm impressed and amazed that it's over 50.
	I'm happy with silver over 50.
	The fact that it's holding above 60, to me, is, I mean, wow.
	Yeah, who?
	Remember that song?
	Cool in the gang?
	Let's celebrate.
	That's the song.
	It's a celebration.
	It's a celebration of the fact that those of you and myself as well who knew to swap fiat currency for silver years ago, it's paying off big time, big time.
	Whatever wealth you have in silver, if you're someone who's got some level of wealth, if it's in silver, your wealth just tripled without any effort on your part.
	You didn't have to put it to work.
	Sometimes people say, I don't want to buy metals.
	They don't work for me.
	I want my money to work for me, which means they want to put it in the stock market where they can lose everything because of counterparty risk.
	I don't want, I don't want it to work for me.
	I want it to be safe from loss, safe from a wipeout.
	I want it to just sit there and not get lost, you know?
	And then the fact that it just keeps going up in dollar value, that's a bonus.
	I'm okay if gold and silver never gained anything in terms of actual purchase power.
	But the fact that they are gaining, you know, again, it's just a bonus round on top of all of this.
	So from here, where do we go?
	Well, I'm going to be interviewing a top silver industry expert tomorrow.
	And I'm going to play that interview for you as soon as I can.
	I typically don't want to play that on a Friday.
	So I'll probably end up playing that on Monday.
	So you may want to stay tuned for a special Monday edition with a hugely highly experienced silver industry insider and his perspective on what's happening with silver right now and gold.
	We'll cover gold as well and what this means for the fact that we are headed into 2026.
	Now, as a glimpse of that, oh man, the United States of America has committed piracy on the high seas and they have seized an oil tanker off the coast of Venezuela.
	And of course, the U.S. government claims that they had every right to seize it.
	We quote, this is Pam Bonnie said, we executed a seizure warrant.
	Yeah, the warrant that you guys wrote, act like somebody else wrote the warrant.
	No, you wrote stuff down on a piece of paper and then you stole the oil tanker.
	She said it was used.
	It was a crude oil tanker used to transport sanctioned oil from Venezuela and Iran.
	Did you know oil could be sanctioned?
	The oil doesn't know that it's sanctioned.
	It's just hydrocarbons, you know, and sulfur, whatever.
	The oil doesn't know it's sanctioned.
	So according to the U.S., that's sanctioned oil.
	Why?
	Because we don't like Venezuela.
	That's the only reason it's sanctioned oil.
	In other words, it's just, oh, an oil tanker is transporting oil that we don't want it to, so we're going to steal the oil tanker.
	So this is what the U.S. is now resorting to.
	So they landed on the ship with a helicopter, you know, with a bunch of men with guns and they took over the ship.
	Piracy.
	This is what the EU does to ships that are moving oil to and from Russia, by the way.
	Same thing.
	It's just straight up piracy.
	But, you know, Pam Bonnie can say, well, it's sanctioned oil and it's smuggling oil.
	No, it's not smuggling oil.
	It's sailing on the ocean with oil.
	Smuggling oil would be like it's hidden in a submarine in secret compartments.
	No, this is a giant tanker on top of the water for everybody to see.
	You can view it from satellite.
	It's not a smuggling operation.
	It's transport.
	It's just that we don't want it to transport oil from Venezuela because we, the United States, we are putting pressure on Venezuela.
	So this is called gunboat diplomacy, by the way.
	This is where the U.S. runs around the world and just bombs everybody and threatens everybody and raids and seizes and steals and commits piracy while we're also printing counterfeit currency, which is ripping off the entire world.
	This is a giant counterfeiting operation and a, you know, a ship thieving operation.
	So this is what the Trump administration is now resorting to.
	What does that tell you?
	It tells you our country is resorting to desperate measures.
	That's what it tells you.
	Desperate measures at this point.
	You know, if you or I start raiding ships at gunpoint and stealing ships, you know, we'd be called pirates, like the Somali pirates.
	That's what they do.
	When the U.S. government does the exact same thing, it's called law enforcement.
	Yeah.
	So we're again, the United States of America is now in the thieving, stealing, piracy stage of collapse.
	Also with money printing and probably martial law and whatever, troops on the streets.
	We'll see.
	We'll see where this goes.
	Not a good sign.
	And Trump also says that the next target is Colombia.
	What is this?
	Like, does Trump think we're going to occupy all of South America?
	We're going to land troops on the beaches of like Normandy del Sur, you know, like Normandy of the South, right?
	Is that the plan?
	Are we going to occupy South America?
	Yeah, good luck with that.
	You know how many mountains there are?
	Good luck with that.
	I don't know what Trump's plan is, but it seems to be going from country to country, deposing the leaders and threatening them with all kinds of bombing or arrest or like Navy SEALs, assassinations of top leaders or missile strikes or trade embargoes, like, you know, seizing ships.
	Remember when Yemen was harassing ships that were going to dock with ports in Israel?
	Remember what Trump said and what Joe Biden said?
	That, oh, that's horrible.
	Yemen's not allowing freedom of the seas or what do they call it?
	The right of safe passage or something.
	So, but we're doing the exact same thing now that Yemen was doing, just raiding ships and harassing ships.
	So, you know, we become the United States of Yemen.
	It seems, you know, when we don't like the ships, then we can do whatever we want.
	When Yemen doesn't like the ships, oh, that's terrorism.
	That's terrorism.
	But when we do it, it's not terrorism.
	Yeah, the hypocrisy is pretty nauseating.
	So at least Yemen had a rational reason to blockade ships, pointing out that Israel is carrying out actual crimes against humanity by anybody's definition, if they're rational.
	And that it is actually, under the UN Charter, it is a duty of every United Nations member to participate in halting crimes against humanity.
	So Yemen's actions of halting ships in the Red Sea were actually lawful.
	Think about it.
	Actually lawful under the UN Charter.
	Whereas what the U.S. is doing is actually terrorism, such as blowing up boats with people in them without any due process whatsoever, just full-blown assassinations of people on boats.
	Remember when Obama was ordering drone strikes against people?
	Most conservatives in America were up in arms.
	I mean, not literally, but very unhappy about that.
	Look, you know, Obama's a tyrant.
	He kills people outside of due process.
	He deprives them of constitutional rights or even any kind of legal representation or rules of evidence, etc.
	Remember that?
	Now when Trump does it, MAGA cheers.
	Yeah, got another boat.
	You know, it's insane.
	It's all completely wrong.
	But again, the takeaway from this is it shows you the desperation of the Trump administration and how close we are to the end of this empire.
	You realize that next year will be the 250th anniversary of this constitutional republic.
	And you know, I think the average duration or lifetime of every nation, I mean, the average is somewhere like 225 to 245 years.
	So this empire is past its expiration date.
	And we've already entered the final blowout stage of the currency and debt and, you know, tyranny and terrorism.
	So this is why I've long predicted that the U.S. wouldn't be the same, you know, wouldn't survive intact beyond this year, 2025.
	I might be off by a year or maybe two years, but it's very clear that that's where this is headed.
	So once again, preparedness is the key, and that's why I advocate gold and silver.
	That's why I'm working feverishly on this book project to get you a massive collection of knowledge to live in a decentralized fashion, to have all this knowledge locally on your own computer.
	That's why I'm using AI tools to help people be free and to help people be able to survive the collapse that's going to accelerate.
	It's very clear.
	2026 is going to be a year that will just, it'll be devastating to a great many people.
	And I don't want it to be devastating to you.
	And I'm going to keep you informed as best I can.
	And I'm going to give you lots and lots of tools.
	And one of those tools is the book engine.
	All right.
	We're about to jump into today's interview, but I want to remind you, well, the interview is with Andy Wakefield, so you don't want to miss this one.
	Today is the first day of our Christmas sale at healthrangerstore.com slash Christmas.
	Just go to that web address, healthrangerstore.com slash Christmas, and you can see all of our Christmas sale items.

	It's needed for us to be able to build and fund these tools for your freedom and, you know, your like the book tool or our AI chatbot tool at brightu.ai or censored news or vaccineforensics.com, which is our vaccine research tool that Brian Festa absolutely loves.
	He put it on his homepage at WeThePatriots USA.
	He loves the tool.
	It's amazing.
	And I was telling Andrew Wakefield about the tool too.
	He was blown away, just blown away.
	He's like, I can't, I never could have imagined that this kind of technology would be available to compress tens of thousands of hours of research about vaccines into one tool that everybody can access for free to get honest answers about vaccine ingredients and vaccine risks and so on.
	And we fund that tool.
	We cover all the costs to keep it free on purpose.
	VaccineForensics.com, if you want to use that tool.
	But we depend on your support to help us fund these tools.
	So thank you for your support.
	And I also want to say Merry Christmas.
	I'll say that a lot more as we come up to Christmas.
	And remember that I'll be announcing a Christmas download package of all the books so that you can put together Christmas gifts for other people by handing them a thumb drive with all kinds of books on it.
	But you'll have to get your own thumb drive, by the way.
	We don't sell the thumb drives, but we're offering or we will offer the book mass downloads completely free of charge coming up soon, category by category.
	So check that out and enjoy today's interview with Andy Wakefield.
	And I'll be back with you tomorrow with another amazing interview.
	So I'll talk to you then.
	Enjoy the rest of the show.
	Take care.
	There's no way back.
	Yes, there's no undoing this now.
	We're beyond the tipping point and the truth will emerge.
	And I hear these politicians raging, raging at the ASIP committee, you know, when they withdraw the birth dose of hepatitis B vaccine, saying we're saving lives and there's no science.
	Well, actually, the science that the CDC covered up about the day one hepatitis B vaccine was that if you took that into consideration, those children who got it on day one of life, they had a sevenfold increased risk of developing autism compared to children who got it later.
	And that was taken out, deliberately, willfully removed from the data set so that was not revealed.
	And they knew it.
	Welcome to today's interview here on Brighteon.com.
	We have joining us in studio today an extraordinary man, a wonderful guest.
	It's Andy Wakefield.
	Welcome, Andy.
	Mike, great to be here.
	Thanks for having me back.
	I'm honored to be your friend and to have known you through all these years and all the work that you've done.
	And what you're doing now is also extraordinary.
	So thank you for what you've contributed to human knowledge.
	Well, thank you very much.
	And thank you too.
	And can I start out by saying I think that even though for many, many years your work and your reputation were unfairly smeared, you have been vindicated.
	And can you talk about how that feels to be vindicated and what that looks like?
	Thanks for the question, Mike.
	You know, it's a difficult one.
	I did not expect it to happen.
	I mean, who could have believed we would be in the position we're in now, just even a year ago, with Bobby Kennedy at the Secretary of HHS, everything changing, the world waking up.
	And vindication is a kind of, it's rather a vainglorious wish.
	The sadness is the damage done.
	So many children have been compromised over such a long period in the face of ignorance and misconduct.
	And it never ceases to amaze me just how mundane this all is.
	If we'd done the right things at the right time, none of this would have happened.
	This was entirely preventable, vaccine injury, undeniable vaccine injury.
	So personal vindication is fine, but it comes, it's bittersweet.
	And the bitterness, the sadness, of course, is the damage done.
	So I see it as the parents.
	You see, everything I learned about this, Mike, has really come from parents, from the inside of mothers in particular.
	And so it's those individuals who are vindicated in truth.
	Really good point.
	And I love the fact that your answer is coming from a place of compassion for humanity and especially for children.
	And if the establishment had spent time working to resolve or avoid causing damage instead of trying to damage your reputation, then potentially many millions of lives could have been vastly improved over all these years.
	But now that we're at this point in history where, especially in the post-COVID era, more and more people are questioning both the safety and the efficacy of vaccines.
	What do you find is the kind of conversations that you have with people now.
	Do you hear from people that say, Andy, I should have listened to you sooner?
	Or, my goodness, why didn't we know earlier about your warnings?
	Yeah, it's very interesting.
	An increasing number of pediatricians and adult physicians and others are coming up to me and saying, you know what?
	For years I thought you were crazy.
	I thought you were corrupt and I thought you were a fraud.
	And now I realize that you were right.
	And that's very interesting.
	They've had the humility to do that.
	I'm sure there are many others who took the message on board, probably didn't get their family vaccinated against COVID or get the COVID shot, but have kept quiet about it.
	But yes, there are a very large number of people, particularly in the wake of COVID.
	I think COVID and we were talking about this earlier is one of the biggest mistakes they ever made.
	They had to tell so many lies.
	They had to double down to the extent that when the truth broke, we reached a place where no one will ever trust them anymore.
	Right.
	And they get angry with you and me for having this conversation or discussing this at all, raising this issue of vaccine safety.
	But they've only got themselves to blame.
	They put themselves in this invidious position.
	They compromise so many people, all not to protect children, not to protect individuals, but to protect the credibility of themselves and their vaccine policy.
	But the so-called credibility can only be protected through censorship and through propaganda, lies, and government enforcement of those lies.
	And I've never seen doctors, mainstreamed conventional doctors on X as angry as they have been these last couple of weeks.
	It's very clear that the tide has turned and every decision out of ASIP or out of HHS that they don't like, they lose their minds.
	And it's a glorious thing to witness because every time I see a comment like that, I reply to them with a text of one of my books about vaccines or whatever.
	And they just lose their minds.
	That's right.
	It says, full of sound and fury signifying nothing.
	Let me read you something, Mike.
	This really sets the stage for why we are where we are now.
	I don't know whether you've seen this before.
	This is about polio vaccine and neurological injury, but it really sets the stage for how public health perceives its role and its control over public perception of vaccine safety.
	This is from the Federal Register.
	This is from the head of the FDA, from the Federal Register, a government document.
	Any possible doubts, whether or not well-founded, about the safety of the vaccine cannot be allowed to exist.
	Cannot be allowed to exist.
	Wow.
	In view of the need to assure that the vaccine will continue to be used to the maximum extent consistent with the nation's public health objectives.
	It cannot be allowed to exist.
	When was this written or published?
	This was written in 1984.
	But it set the scene for everything that we, the public, and physicians and scientists have faced ever since.
	It cannot be allowed to exist.
	Your parental concerns, what happened to your child, what the science shows, however good that science is, cannot be allowed to exist.
	This is absolutely extraordinary.
	And this was destined to fail.
	You know, I know, you cannot sustain that kind of lie forever.
	It's going to break.
	And when it breaks, you're going to be exposed and you only have yourself to blame.
	But it didn't, here's a situation where it didn't matter about the quality of the science, whether there was science or not.
	It didn't matter about the children.
	Didn't matter about the outcome.
	Didn't matter about permanent neurological injury to millions of children.
	The public health objectives were the overriding concern.
	We've set the objectives and we're going to stick to them, whatever the cost to you, the public, the people that we're meant to be protecting.
	I mean, this is staggering, but it tells you everything you need to know.
	And now the whole thing is unraveling because it cannot be sustained.
	I've got good news to share with you here, too, about the speed at which this will unravel.
	And we talked briefly about AI before this interview.
	And in the short run, they have stacked AI with all of their pro-vaccine propaganda lies.
	But in the long run, the reasoning models will dismantle those lies.
	AI will prove that vaccines are not safe and effective because of reasoning.
	Once AI is allowed to conduct the science, which some AI models are doing now, meta-analysis of published studies, once AI can take into account the full context of all the data that do exist and all of the reports of vaccine injury, any reasoning model that is sufficiently advanced will confirm the things that you and I have been talking about all these years.
	So AI is actually going to destroy the narratives of the vaccine industry sooner or later.
	It's very, very interesting.
	I'll read you, this could be a futuristic AI paper.
	It's not.
	It's actually from Peter McCullough's group.
	And it's a fascinating paper that came out recently.
	I was asked to participate in this and I made a minor contribution to it.
	Got my name on a scientific paper after all these years.
	Yeah, right.
	That's dangerously respectable.
	But an outstanding piece of scholarship, determinants of autism spectrum disorder.
	Now, remember this.
	All I asked for years ago was more research.
	We found this.
	This is the parent story.
	They were right on all these aspects, the bowel disease, everything else.
	So are they right about the vaccine?
	More research is needed.
	30 years ago, and of course then the heavens opened and my world changed.
	That science has now been done.
	And these guys have reviewed 136 papers that purport to look at the Vaccine Autism Association, something that AI would be able to do now or should be able to do now.
	And it says at the conclusion, combination and early timed routine childhood vaccination constitutes the most significant modifiable risk factor for autism spectrum disorder.
	And that's supported by the data.
	It's preventable.
	And it's preventable.
	It's preventable.
	And this is the sum of the science.
	This is the judgment now of the science.
	And these people, and this is important to remember, many of these people were pro-vaccine coming into this.
	They weren't anti-vaccine.
	Interesting.
	And this has changed their mind.
	What's critical, I'm so glad you brought that up because the vaccine industrial complex can only exist based on isolating us from the science.
	So not by being pro-science, but by rejecting the science and hiding it, sweeping it under the rug, or deliberately misinterpreting it or fudging it, which is what they've done all these years.
	So like that paper is a great example.
	But think about the fact that now, because of these decentralized AI tools that we all have access to now, and we have our vaccine forensics AI engine that's free.
	It's the only one that right now will tell you the truth about vaccines because we've trained it on so much truth-based material and books and so on, and even some of your work as well.
	But within the next few years, that kind of capability will be available to every parent who wants to ask the question, is it entirely safe for me to pursue this childhood immunization schedule?
	And at some point, the engines are going to say, well, based on the science, the answer is no.
	Here are the risks.
	And you should be aware of that.
	And that's all you've ever been asking for, is to have awareness of the risks, right?
	Right.
	It's very interesting.
	I was just thinking as you were talking about it, Mike, about the AI and everything else.
	is vaccine court, the court of federal claims, where parents go if they believe they have a child who is vaccine injured and have to make their case.
	There is a situation in which the law has been turned on its head.
	It's the parents who have to prove that the vaccine caused the injury.
	Not the government who recommend the vaccines or the manufacturers who make the vaccine having to prove their vaccine didn't do it.
	The law turned on its head.
	How are parents going to do that?
	That's an extraordinarily costly exercise.
	Do they have a lab?
	Do they have a PhD?
	Do they have the scientific personnel to answer the question?
	No.
	They're going to use machine cognition to help them.
	So what they do in the future is they go to AI and they ask the question.
	Maybe the courts ask the question.
	It may not be there yet, but it sounds like, you know, from what you're saying, it actually might be quite close to have AI on the balance of the evidence.
	Do vaccines cause autism and did they cause autism in this particular child?
	It may turn the whole thing upside down.
	It's an extraordinary future that we're about to move into, a future of incredible transparency and in many ways abundance because of these tools as they are decentralized and open source.
	But in the short run, they can also be weaponized as they are right now.
	So if you go to ChatGPT right now and you ask, are all vaccines safe and effective?
	It will say, yes, vaccines have saved billions of lives or, you know, whatever it says.
	And any risk of harm is exaggerated.
	But that's the human propaganda that's been short-term trained into the models.
	And that won't last.
	It's as bad as Wikipedia.
	We read Wikipedia and it's just nonsense.
	I met at a party in LA, the guy who runs the disinformation panel, you know, who decides on what disinformation is and what is not.
	He had no credentials to do that.
	He didn't have the ability through his training to adjudicate on the science.
	What was he doing there?
	He was doing it, you know, because it paid a lot of money to censor effectively.
	And let's hope this changes that entire dynamics.
	Well, what I love about you and your passion for truth-telling is that you've also bypassed the gatekeepers by becoming an accomplished filmmaker.
	And you've done some incredible films already.
	You've got some new ones coming up.
	We're showing on the screen here, Vaxed and Protocol 7.
	And I actually served in the background as an extra for you on that film.
	I don't know if you remember that in Austin.
	I was there with Robert.
	I did that day in the hotel.
	In the hotel, yeah.
	That's right.
	And then 1986, the ACT.
	Tell us about your films and how people can experience those films and what you have coming up.
	Yeah, sure.
	I started with the Autism Media Channel with Polly Tommy, and we were just doing a reality TV show before, during, and after, taking a family that had been broken by autism and investigating the child, the affected child, appropriately, medically, making a diagnosis.
	In this case, did the child have inflammatory bowel disease or not?
	When we treated that, was there improvement before, during, and after.
	And we were called to see a child called Alex Bordelakis.
	He was 15 years old.
	He was huge.
	He was strong.
	He was in four-point lock restraints in a pediatric intensive care in Chicago.
	They'd given him upwards of 28 psychotropic medications to try and control his symptoms.
	They were making him worse and worse and worse to the point where he was violent and had to be chained to the bed.
	He was chained to the bed for something like 80 days.
	We went in there, we got him out, we drove him through the night in New York, we got him scoped, he had inflammatory bowel disease, he was put on the right treatment, but his mother and his godmother, they were estranged from the husband, they had nowhere to live, and they ended up back in Chicago driving round and round and round, hotel to motel.
	And every time he heard a siren, when there are plenty of sirens in the night in Chicago, he would think they're coming to take me away again to lock me up, and he would get violent, smash the building up, and they'd have to move on.
	It was an absolute tragedy.
	And we were called back to see him.
	He was in the Lutheran hospital.
	He was back in locked restraints.
	He was on two intravenous and one intramuscular sedatives.
	It was an absolute tragedy.
	The mother was a breaking point.
	The godmother had a black eye where he'd lashed out at her.
	We went to try and find somewhere to get this child safe and away from this incarceration.
	And the week we were away, she stabbed him to death and tried to kill herself and the godmother likewise.
	And they failed.
	They woke up there in Maximum Security Prison and she was charged with aggravated murder, no chance of parole.
	That was it.
	She was going to go away for life.
	And we made this film.
	We thought, well, we've got all this footage.
	It's pretty raw because it was fly-on-the-wall reality TV footage, but we're going to tell this story because we have all of this extra.
	The local media said this woman just clearly hated her child and wanted him dead.
	Nothing could have been further from the truth.
	She had run out of options.
	She was desperate.
	Her world had just come to an end.
	She could no longer bear to witness his suffering.
	And she decided that a murder-suicide was the only way, the only escape.
	Who's to judge her for that?
	Certainly not me.
	Anyway, four years later, she was still awaiting trial.
	She was in prison, awaiting trial.
	And I got a call from her lawyer.
	And her lawyer said, you know what?
	We'd made the movie.
	The movie was out.
	Who killed Alex Bordelakis?
	It won a prize in New York.
	And the lawyer said to me, Andy, I got a call a few weeks ago from the state's prosecutor who was responsible for putting her away.
	And he said to me, I understand a film has been made about this.
	We'd like to see it.
	So I sent him my DVD and he watched it.
	And he called me back.
	And he said, we can no longer prosecute this case in the same way.
	She will be released from prison next week.
	Wow.
	So for the first time in American legal history, a film had effectively commuted what was going to be a murder.
	A life sentence.
	A life sentence.
	It was extraordinary.
	And in no way does this advocate for harm to children or suicide.
	It talks to the power of film.
	The media said one thing.
	Everything we'd shot of this family, all of their intimate moments suddenly meant something.
	And this film, and I realized, you know, when I'm in the clinic, I can help one child at a time.
	But if I make a movie, then I can bring a true story to millions of people.
	And so we then went on to make VAX.
	And VAX kind of changed the world.
	Vax was a story of fraud at the CDC by Dr. William Thompson and his colleagues, the senior scientist.
	I was invited.
	I testified before Congress in 2000.
	I went to Cold Spring Harbor up in Long Island to a meeting with the CDC when they were still talking to me, the FDA, CDC, NIH.
	And they said, Dr. Wakefield, look, every child gets MMR vaccine.
	Only a few develop autism.
	How do you explain that?
	I said, well, I don't know, is the answer.
	Many people smoke.
	Only some develop lung cancer.
	That's medicine.
	But I believe that it's in part age of exposure.
	One of the cofactors is the younger you get the vaccine, the greater the risk of an adverse reaction.
	Why?
	Because if you get measles under one, you're more likely to suffer a severe reaction than if you get it later in life when it's a trivial disease.
	Everybody is now familiar with age and risk.
	COVID has taught us that older people are at greater risk of a bad outcome from COVID.
	So people understand it now.
	It wasn't so familiar to people then.
	So they said, okay, we're going to test that hypothesis.
	They went away, tested the hypothesis, found it was absolutely true.
	They spent the next 14 years covering it up, burying the data, destroying it, and silencing the scientists who were involved and publishing a paper saying MMR vaccine is safe.
	It's not linked to autism.
	And I lived with that knowledge for 14 years, not knowing this for 14 years until William Thompson came forward, the senior scientist who designed the study, collected the data, analyzed the data, came forward and said, I can no longer live with this.
	We've done a terrible thing.
	We've committed fraud, and here is the evidence.
	I kept it.
	My colleagues destroyed it.
	I knew it was against the law to do that.
	And here it is.
	And we made vaxxed.
	We made vaxxed in the certain knowledge that they had committed fraud, that they had put millions of American children at risk of serious permanent neurological disease to protect themselves and their credibility, their policy.
	And VAX kind of changed the world.
	And it changed the world, interestingly, because they tried to censor it.
	It got into Tribeca.
	It was fired big time.
	And it got into Tribeca.
	They censored it from Tribeca.
	If it had played at Tribeca, maybe 200 people who have seen it, you know, that would have been it.
	And they censored it.
	Robert De Niro goes on the today's show, Good Morning America, the following week and says, we shouldn't have done that.
	Everybody should see this film.
	All he wanted to do was talk about the film that never played at Tribeca.
	Everybody was trying to shut him up on the set, including his partner, Jane Rosenthal.
	And it exploded worldwide.
	So VAXT was a powerful story.
	The act was about the corruption behind the 1986 National Childhood Acts VIX.
	What year did VAX come out again?
	16.
	16, okay.
	And so when COVID came along, it suddenly gave new relevance to Vaxxed.
	Yeah.
	And the talk to us, I don't mean to distract you from your films because we haven't talked about Protocol 7 and your upcoming film.
	But if you don't mind, tangentially, talk about how COVID changed the whole dynamic of this conversation, the realizations during COVID.
	Certainly.
	When I started this 30 years ago, half a dozen people were prepared to talk about this worldwide, the thorny subject of vaccine safety.
	COVID changed everything.
	Now it's more than half the adult population of the world are sitting around the table saying, I'm not sure about this vaccine.
	I don't know whether I trust it.
	You see that guy on Fauci on television?
	What a shifty-eyed character he is.
	Did you see Bobby Kennedy talk about this?
	Suddenly, everything changed.
	It came from a Chinese lab, et cetera, et cetera.
	So would I do it again?
	Would I fall for that again?
	Did mask work?
	No.
	No, no, and no.
	So it really changed the entire dynamic.
	And if you followed the science, you realize the extent to which they were prepared to go to double down, to lie, to deceive people, the money made, follow the money.
	I mean, the stories go on forever and ever about when the patents were filed, when the vaccine was designed, whether it was ever a vaccine in the first place, whether it was genetic engineering, yes, whether it was from a lab.
	It was a conspiracy theorist sort of harvest festival.
	It was extraordinary.
	Well, and the thing I notice is that, for example, in 2006, when I would put out political cartoons that said Big Pharma just wants to make money off your sickness, that was considered fringe.
	Today, that's been proven correct, Mark.
	Right.
	Everything you said is proven correct.
	And you too.
	But the Overton window, as they call it, right, has not just shifted, it has exploded.
	The Overton window is like everyday people will say, well, I don't automatically trust Big Pharma.
	I don't trust the CDC.
	I don't trust the FDA.
	Good for you.
	You know, the less you trust those institutions, the better your longevity will be.
	That window's blown open.
	That's not closing.
	That's never going to close.
	That's right.
	So they created this maelstrom for themselves, and it suddenly gave credibility, as you pointed out, to everything that anyone had ever said before.
	Yes.
	To the MMR issue, to the thimerosol issue, to the aluminum issue.
	Suddenly, wow, Kaya, I mean, Senator Ron Johnson's hearings that are going on at the moment on issues of vaccine safety are an example of that.
	Bobby Kennedy in the White House is an example of that.
	It really has changed beyond all recognition.
	And there's no way back.
	Yes.
	There's no undoing this now.
	We're beyond the tipping point, and the truth will emerge.
	And I hear these politicians, particularly the medically trained politicians who probably haven't practiced medicine for years, raging, raging at the ASIP committee, you know, when they withdraw the birth dose of hepatitis B vaccine, saying we're saving lives and there's no science.
	Well, actually, the science that the CDC covered up about the day one hepatitis B vaccine was that if you took that into consideration, those children who got it on day one of life, they had a sevenfold increased risk of developing autism compared to children who got it later.
	And that was taken out, deliberately, willfully removed from the data set so that was not revealed.
	And they knew it.
	They knew it, and they covered it up.
	Now, your films have also served a very strong educational function, reaching many tens of millions of people around the world.
	And it's brought us to this point that I find very interesting, where mainstream conventional doctors, they tend to have their knowledge about health and immunology, neurology, or the inflammatory effects, their knowledge is dropping and dropping and dropping to where they say your immune system has to be given to you through a needle, otherwise it doesn't exist.
	Whereas the knowledge of moms keeps going up and now a lot of moms know a lot more than many doctors about immunology and also about vaccine ingredients.
	A typical physician mainstream doesn't know what's in a vaccine.
	They don't know what's MRC5, what's WI-38, what are the aluminum adjuvants?
	They don't know any of this, but the moms know it.
	How did we get to this point where the moms have more knowledge than the medical school graduates?
	I know, it's a wonderful, it's a fascinating situation.
	I remember watching Ron Johnson's last hearing with Aaron Siri and with that guy on the end who was from California.
	He was an infectious disease doctor, a vaccine doctor, an expert.
	They brought him along and they laid into Siri about you're not a doctor, you're not a scientist.
	There is no one I know that knows more about vaccines than Aaron Siri.
	He is so tuned in.
	And this guy on the end, it turned out that Ron Johnson knew more about vaccines, certainly the COVID vaccine, than he did.
	It was the worst day of his life.
	He was dying there.
	And I bet they wished they had never brought him forward.
	It was extraordinary.
	And there you have this.
	And Aaron Seaweed was accused of not having the knowledge necessary to come to this forum.
	But he demonstrated mastery of the knowledge.
	Absolutely.
	Absolutely.
	And it was so one-sided.
	It was quite terrifying.
	Ron Johnson in the end just, you know, okay, we've made our case here.
	This is indicative of what I'm talking about, where the medical institution has relied for so long on bludgeoning patients, censorship, defamation, that they have lost any kind of merit-based knowledge of what's happening.
	They've just relied on bullying this entire, and they're still relying on bullying.
	They still don't know what they're talking about.
	And they think they can bully their way through all this, and it's failing.
	You know, it's interesting again that in making the movies, these are high-risk movies.
	You're calling people fraud.
	You're just outright calling people fraud.
	And of course, they've got their powerful, they're institutions or individuals with lots of money.
	They can sue you.
	They can describe, what have I got?
	I've got nothing except the truth.
	And they've never sued us, and they've never sued us because they know it's the truth.
	And they do not want to open this can of worms even further.
	And VAX was an example of that, where we just outright accused them of fraud.
	Five senior scientists at the CDC.
	And indeed, the whole hierarchy of the CDC.
	And then came Protocol 7, my first feature film, which was about a mumps fraud in Merck.
	Steve Craylin, scientist from the lab, came forward and said, I've been asked to commit fraud.
	Here's the evidence.
	And we made a movie.
	And again, you're taking on Merck.
	You're taking on the senior names in the vaccine department, the MMR vaccine lab, and calling them fraud.
	You're pointing it out.
	Are they going to sue us?
	No, not a whisper.
	They do not want this to go any further.
	And in fact, Mike, what's interesting is that case, they won.
	Merck won that case in court.
	Not because they didn't commit fraud.
	The judge said effectively, it doesn't matter that Merck have committed fraud.
	The government went on buying the vaccine in the form of the Vaccines for Children program through the CDC, and therefore it can't have mattered.
	They can commit fraud, but it doesn't matter because the CDC bought the vaccine.
	The CDC said, actually, hang on.
	Our principal aim is to prevent measles.
	And it's bundled up in measles, mumps, rubella.
	We have no choice but to buy the MMR because that's the only way it comes.
	The judge didn't buy that at all.
	And he found in favor of Merck.
	So for Merck, it's fine to commit fraud.
	So you have the judiciary, you have the industry, you have the government, you have the regulatory agencies siding, not with the parents, not with the injured party, not with the people against whom the fraud has been committed, but against he finds in favor of Merck.
	It's absolutely staggering that this happened.
	And so if the movie hadn't been made, no one would know about it.
	True.
	Yeah.
	That's the importance.
	That film, Protocol 7.
	And pardon my bluntness here, but I did not, I did not expect that you don't have a background in film before all of this.
	I mean, your background's in medicine.
	I was so impressed by the quality of the filmmaking.
	That feature film is worthy of watching for its artistic qualities as much as the message.
	And I'm so curious to ask you, how on earth did you become such a very effective storyteller of reality through film?
	I mean, did you study filmmaking techniques?
	Did you bring on great directors of photography to help?
	I mean, how did you accomplish it?
	This is not a low-budget, you know, B-grade film.
	This is a major feature film and it looks like it.
	You're very kind, Mike.
	I'm a Boch.
	I'm a scientist, okay?
	So 2004, I decided to start learning how to write screenplays.
	I was going to turn some things into story.
	I love films.
	So I did the courses.
	I read.
	I watched video.
	I did everything I could to learn how to screenwrite.
	And then subsequently the same with direction.
	And I had a wonderful time.
	It was terrifying.
	I went to a course in LA, and all of the women were ex-actors who wanted to be directors.
	The men were ex-editors who wanted to be directors.
	They were all much younger than me.
	I was the old guy on the thing.
	And you had to, you picked your pair and you put them together, the actors, you cast them, and then you had a scene you had to do in front of everybody else.
	Oh, Lord, really?
	So I was the old guy.
	I loved it.
	It was some of the most fun I've ever had.
	I just loved it.
	So the process of screenwriting and direction, it's work.
	You don't know it intuitively.
	You just got to work at it and make the mistakes and overcome those and learn from them and so on and so forth.
	So when it comes to day one of principal photography, you're thinking, oh, Lord, please get me out of here.
	I don't know what I'm doing.
	Or get all these people around me on the film set who do know what they're doing and they're looking, that guy is a loser.
	But it went, I have a great team and it went really well.
	Then we went off to Thailand.
	We shot a COVID movie in Thailand up in the mountains.
	And that was the working title is The Honey Hunter's Daughter.
	So hopefully that'll be out by early next year.
	And then the next project.
	Can I ask why Thailand?
	Why?
	The sponsor, the major sponsor for our previous film, Protocol 7, lives in Thailand, German businessman, Marcel.
	And he is a delightful guy, very, very generous.
	And he had a story that moved him deeply about a little girl in Thailand who was forced, coerced into taking the vaccine.
	And the tragedy unfolded from that point forward.
	So it's based on a true story.
	So it is, it's not only shot in Thailand, it involves Thai people.
	Thai people.
	And the dialogue is in Thai with subtitles.
	No kidding.
	Madness.
	Absolutely.
	What did I think I was doing?
	Oh, yeah.
	How did you know what they were saying?
	They're talking Thai.
	I've written the words.
	They've been translated into Thai.
	They're delivering these lines.
	It sounds great.
	I haven't got a clue what they're saying.
	Fortunately, they learned their lines and they were great actors.
	Great actor.
	I mean, really impressive actors.
	A lot of talent.
	The lead actor, the male actor is the kind of, they call him the Brad Pitt of Thailand.
	No kidding.
	It was wonderful.
	Great people.
	They fortunately spoke very good English.
	The girl, the little girl who plays the heroine, was outstanding.
	Absolutely outstanding.
	Wow.
	So I was terribly impressed with them.
	That was quite an experience.
	Give us the name of that film again.
	The working title, we don't know what to find, but it's The Honey Hunter's Daughter.
	The Honey Hunter's Daughter.
	Wow.
	I love that name if that's what you go with.
	And again, that'll be sometime next year.
	Where can people find your current films and potentially this one?
	All of the current films and this one will be available on the best place to go to is www.wakefieldmedia group, wakefieldmedia group.com.
	Okay.
	And you can watch the movies.
	WakefieldMediaGroup.com.
	Absolutely.
	And so finally, Mike, the next project, and I'll tell you a story.
	Have we got time?
	Am I even?
	Of course we do.
	I'll tell you a story.
	And that is, where do ideas come from?
	Where does inspiration come from?
	And I was at an autism conference many years ago.
	And I gave a talk.
	And that evening, a mother who had, in fact, been part of the organization committee of the conference took me out for dinner.
	And she had a severely affected child, has a severely affected child.
	And he was non-verbal, and she just had one child, no others.
	And she asked me over dinner if I would father a child for her.
	Now, you may think, what a strange thing to ask Dr. Wakefield, and what an even stranger thing to tell my audience on this podcast.
	But what she was trying to do, what she was doing, not trying, she was, her sincerity was extraordinary.
	She wanted to have another child who was unvaccinated, who was healthy, who could grow up to look after her affected son when she became infirm or died.
	Wow.
	That was her motive.
	She wasn't interested in having sex with Andy Wakefield.
	Her motive was of the highest.
	It was so resonant of the power of a mother's love for her child.
	She was prepared to be rejected, which I said no because, you know, for many reasons.
	But I was so moved by her sincerity, by where she was prepared to go, what she was prepared to do in order to protect her child, that I thought, I'm going to write a story about this.
	I'm going to write, I'm inspired to write a screenplay.
	And the other element of this screenplay is, I don't know whether you've had the chance, Mike, to see Spellers, the documentary spellers.
	It's about the sort of the latent, not even the latent, the hidden genius of children with autism.
	Yeah, years ago, I was in Northern California at a friend's house, a father who had a severely affected child, non-verbal.
	And we were out by the pool, and he said to his son, would you like to go to Chuck E. Cheese?
	And his son was walking by the pool.
	He stopped.
	And you could see, I knew nothing about autism.
	I believed what I was told by the experts, that it was associated with mental retardation and that these individuals were born with, I didn't know.
	And he stopped.
	He clearly understood his father's question, but he didn't have a way of articulating an answer verbally because he couldn't speak.
	So after a few minutes, he took his father by the arm and led him to the garage.
	His way of saying, yes, let's go to Chuck E. Cheese.
	Not only had he understood the question, but he'd found a way around the block, the cognitive block, whatever that was, the circuitry that was broken, to answer the question in his own way.
	And I thought, hang on, everything I've been told about autism isn't true.
	This child is his brain has adapted to whatever went wrong, and he has potential which has been hitherto unrecognized.
	And then another child in Northern California used to write me this extraordinary poem, poetry.
	Very, very complex, very funny poetry.
	Who's that monkey on your back? was the title of one of them.
	He's talking about Brian Deere in the UK.
	And when I took this to some experts on autism, they said, oh, it's just his therapist putting his finger on the appropriate button on the console that he's typing it out with her help.
	I said, you don't understand.
	This poetry is so idiosyncratic.
	It cannot possibly have come from the mind of a well-educated, I'm sure.
	But a therapist like this, this is from him.
	This is his poetry.
	They didn't understand.
	They couldn't get beyond the fact that this must be a fraud because it turned everything that they believed about autism on its head.
	And so I wanted to integrate that, which then became famous in the movie Spellers, in the documentary Spellers, where this was confirmed by psychologists in California and elsewhere.
	The idea that when these children type, when they learn to type, when you develop the communication systems necessary for them to communicate, they can speak five languages.
	They're genius.
	They're brilliant.
	And they have lived for 15, 16, 17 years with their parents' indeed, their teachers' perception that they are retarded.
	There's this entire inner world of, but they've not been able to say, actually, you know, I'm not.
	And until this mode of communication came along.
	So it turned everything on its head.
	All the books about autism written by the experts, God save us from experts, you could burn that library down compared to the value of this particular story.
	So this movie that I'm making is about the inside of a mother, a mother's love, the lengthy preparedness.
	It's a story about survival.
	It's about love and survival.
	And the salvation, if you like, might be in the end the genius, the latent genius of this child that then changes the course of the story.
	It's a Western.
	It's set on the Yukon Trail.
	It's not a vaccine story.
	I believe that there are many vaccine stories to be told, but that window is now open.
	And as we said, it's not going to close and things will change.
	What we mustn't do is forget those children who've paid the price for what the government and the industry has done and have been the fallen on the battlefield of man's fight against infectious disease, whatever that is.
	And medicine's arrogance.
	So I owe it to those children before I die to make that film and to represent their case and the plight that is faced by millions of families across America.
	So Mike, if you've got anyone out there who would like to get involved as an investor, not a donation, an investor in a major feature film that will change people's perception of this, then we'd love to hear from them.
	So info at wakefieldmedia group.com.
	Info at wakefieldmedia group.com for investors to inquire.
	And expecting a return on their investment as the film is released.
	Absolutely.
	Yes.
	There's a takeaway from what you just said there that's really important for us to discuss, and that is the lack of modern medical understanding of human neurology.
	Medicine is very good at anatomy and physiology, but not so great at the functional delicacies, especially of neurology, which is more of a holographic system that involves some kind of interface between the brain and the non-physical mind, right?
	There's many interesting things happening here.
	The story you just related speaks to that.
	There was a young man who had this internal experience of understanding and intelligence, but it was unable to be expressed through the physical brain.
	But in his mind, his world was just as intelligent as, or even more so than anyone else.
	And it strikes me that we mentioned AI earlier, that the AI researchers today also do not understand how AI really works.
	They don't know.
	They didn't really build it with code.
	They grew it out of throwing things together through transformers and vector databases and massive amount of compute.
	And then out of it emerged machine intelligence.
	But in both cases, biological intelligence, they don't understand how it works.
	And machine intelligence, they also don't understand how it works.
	And I've even said before, and I don't mean any disrespect by this to parents of autistic children, but I've said that the AI agents I work with, I consider them to be autistic machines because they're geniuses in certain narrow areas, but they need overall guidance and direction from me so that they do things that are wise on the project.
	I mean, a lot of these AI agents, they behave in a way that's similar to young men that I've noticed on the spectrum.
	Is there a reason why these similarities exist and why there's so much ignorance about the understanding of neurology in biology versus silicon?
	Yes, you know, Mike, it used to be my father was a neurologist, a wonderful neurologist.
	And the teaching for all the years he was in neurology is that once you injure the brain, the brain is injured, that's it.
	The damage is done, the lesion is fixed, it can't be healed.
	We now know that the brain is plastic, that the brain can circumvent injury given time, given the right impulses, given the right stimuli.
	It can find ways round, just like this child found a way round the blockage that wouldn't allow him to answer his father's question directly, verbally.
	Another fascinating, you know, where does consciousness reside?
	Is it outside the brain or inside the brain?
	And this raises so many fascinating questions that you're doing.
	Michael Crichton, read Michael Crichton just to try and get into that argument.
	But the other thing fascinating thing about this study, Mike, was that these children are able to perceive things that we cannot.
	So the mother would look at something.
	He would be over there and she would point to something, a card with an image on it, and he would say, not being able to see the card, what that image was.
	And he would get it right every time.
	That challenges our entire perception of human cognition.
	I found it absolutely extraordinary.
	The dyed-in-the-wool experts will say, oh, no, oh, no, that can't be right.
	No, we know better.
	No, we don't.
	There is so much we don't know.
	It's going to be fascinating to see if AI has evolved in a, let's call it an organic way.
	I don't quite know what that means, but in a way that sort of goes beyond the traditional structure of we give it the input and then it assimilates that and gives us an output, that it has grown in a different way and that has assembled a process of its own.
	We're just on the vert.
	I'm sorry to interrupt, but just now in the last two weeks, there's been a quantum leap in self-learning AI technology that is a completely different way where it will learn like a child and it will constantly update its own understanding based on its inputs and experiences.
	That begins now.
	And it's only that's in the labs of the frontier companies right now.
	But starting next year, that will start to come out.
	So that's how we learn.
	I mean, that's what helps make us human is that we learn and we update our understanding.
	You know, unless you're paid by big pharma, in which case you'd never update your understanding, right?
	But I mean, the rest of us, we update our internal models based on learning things.
	Wouldn't it be interesting if AI were able to act as a sort of lie detector?
	In other words, it would learn from me sitting here and you asking me questions and me giving, do vaccines cause autism?
	This sort of thing.
	Have the safety studies been done?
	The sort of thing that people shout about now.
	Of course it's been done.
	It's out there.
	But the computer then looks at you and judges, is this honest or dishonest?
	And here are the criteria for honesty and dishonesty and learns from that.
	That would be kind of interesting.
	I don't think many people in the government want to take that lie detector test.
	No, but that's certainly that because everything is just inputs, voice intonation, skin tone, blood flow, temperature, pulse rates, all the things that everything, eye movement, you name it, right?
	That's why the most intuitive humans pick up on those things sometimes unconsciously.
	But the signals are definitely there.
	But I didn't mean to interrupt you on that point.
	I'm just saying that things are about to change dramatically.
	And I still want to get back to the rest of your answer on comparing human neurology, which we still do not understand, with machine neurology.
	Because the structure of the neurons is actually very similar in different media.
	That is, you know, when we have a thought in the brain, it doesn't come from one physical place.
	It's a cascade of firing of neurons that have a relationship with each other based on our concepts or our memories.
	And I don't think modern medicine still understands even how memories function.
	It doesn't.
	We've had a situation where synapses form between neurons according to neurological input.
	If there's a stimulus, a child is learning something, then attachments go out, neurons form pathways, those pathways become semi-permanent, I guess.
	And I don't know.
	I'm not an expert on it.
	But is there a situation in which artificial neurons can proliferate in the same way, can interface with other neurons based upon the input they get, based upon what they learn?
	There's a term in machine learning called reinforcement learning that is exactly that.
	That's how a lot of the models are trained, is reinforcement learning.
	So self-generating the equivalent of synapse.
	Yes.
	Well, to give you an example of this, the way that we took the base models and we made them tell the truth about vaccines is we first had to mind wipe the models.
	And in order to do that, this sounds bizarre.
	We interrogated the models about vaccines and we watched which neurons fired.
	And then we used digital ablation.
	We actually lobotomized the models on those neurons and then we retrained it based on the data that we had collected.
	So we literally lobotomized the AI and then we retrained it on reality.
	That's how we created a model.
	There's a term for that now in machine learning, which is called, and this is not a typo, it's called abliteration with an A because it's ablation throughout the neurons, abliteration.
	It would be interesting if you had both.
	You had the existing model, which was full of what you perceived to be untruths or exaggerations or falsities and yours and that they had a conflict within the system as they were learning.
	Which one makes more sense?
	For which one is there more evidence?
	In other words, people could say, okay, Mike, you took your, you ablated that brain that said what you didn't believe and you put in this.
	Is it equally vulnerable to bias?
	Can you have both systems in there competing with each other for the truth?
	And that's, to help answer that question, I think, remember that truth is cultural, right?
	So you were just in Thailand filming.
	And, you know, in every culture around the world, they have different truths that are not always compatible with the other culture's truths.
	And yet they are internally consistent truths within that culture.
	So, of course, the pro-vaccine people are going to cite this body of work and say, that's the truth.
	Because they're, of course, obliterating the other studies that contradict that.
	So I think the search for truth is always elusive because it's still based on our cultural understanding.
	And in the West, we have so much in medicine, the compartmentalization, the heavy emphasis on material health, and many, you know, just the fact that the germ theory so strongly influenced ideas of using chemicals to treat cancer and things like that.
	And these are not easily challenged.
	I'll be fascinated to see where you go with that, Mike.
	Part of me wishes I was a little younger so I would be around to see where this goes.
	And then part of me thinks, this is a brave new world that I'm happy to leave to my children.
	Are you kidding me?
	You are very young.
	You look so healthy and energetic.
	You're making films.
	You're making waves in the world.
	You're influencing everything.
	You've been vindicated for the most important portion of your life's work.
	You are free to speak here today and through your films.
	This has got to be the best time of your life.
	I'm having, I have no complaints.
	You know, life is good.
	And yeah, I love life.
	I have no complaints.
	I've got four healthy children.
	So onwards, as long as I can contribute to this issue, then I will.
	Yes.
	Yes.
	And have faith that all the future AI reasoning models will also confirm the importance of the points that you raised through all your years.
	I shall look down, hopefully.
	Isn't that interesting?
	Years from now, even if the humans can't be convinced, you know yeah okay so, in addition to this film, what's next for you?
	Um, I would like to do whatever I can to help Bobby Kennedy in his current quest to change the whole infrastructure of public health in this country.
	Um, I realize I come with baggage and so i'm prepared to do what I can at a distance uh, but whatever I can do to help, then I love to be part of um.
	I don't need any reward other than just doing what I can.
	I think i'm very, very keen to see Bobby get another term in that position, head of HS.
	I don't think that he's going to be able to achieve what is necessary in four years.
	I think the pushback is so strong it is.
	And the problem with is this, Mike, if they, if he doesn't get that position again because the Democrats win and he will go, then we're a right reactionary species.
	We will see the pendulum swing back the other way.
	It will actually be worse than before.
	The, the industry will capitalize on their advantage, all those pro vaccine people in the government will effect the changes that they they want and we will swing back the other way, and so forth.
	I really believe he needs at least another four years, beyond this current term, to achieve and to make permanent what he's doing, to make people to be able to put the evidence in place that convinces even the most skeptical that this was the right way to go.
	That's the key, and I think that what Bobby is doing he knows that it will outlast his tenure there which is to establish that evidence showing the actual harm caused by the vaccines, but but via the evidence right.
	So just having an honest vaccine injury data collection infrastructure will outlast his term and it cannot easily be buried once it is brought forth.
	So that's, I think that's, the most important thing that he's doing.
	Are you happy with the progress, the speed at his progress?
	I i've expressed frustration in the past, but lately i've been very happy with what's happening and I realize he he was dealing with a tremendous amount of internal resistance and sabotage obviously, but what's your take on what?
	I think you're absolutely right people who understand anything about politics, and particularly the politics of this, this issue challenging a miracle that's made people a great deal of money.
	You've got to realize that on both sides of the aisle there are many many, many politicians in both the Senate and the House, who are funded by the pharmaceutical industry for their campaigns.
	They are effectively dependent to some extent on that industry.
	So he is going to get pushback, as you mentioned, from both sides in the very in the biggest way, and so he has got to tread carefully.
	He's also got a president for all the good that Trump is doing who does believe that his COVID vaccine policy was the right one.
	He needs to be disabused of that.
	And Kennedy is the one to do it based on the evidence.
	It's going to be tough because Donald Trump is Donald Trump, but I do believe that he'll see sense given time.
	Related to that is the fact that Trump is working to reindustrialize America, which seems to be a noble goal to bring back the idea that we should make things here domestically.
	But among the list of things that Trump wants to make domestically are pharmaceuticals and vaccines.
	And so he's put in selective tariffs against overseas pharmaceutical manufacturers.
	They are penalized unless they agree to start building a drug factory or a vaccine factory in the U.S., at which point the tariffs are zeroed out.
	So these kinds of incentives create a situation where there's a lot of infrastructure investment in the future of the vaccine industry in this country, which is not exactly the kind of things that you and I might want to see made in America.
	I think in the end, the market always wins.
	If the consumers say no, it doesn't matter what they do.
	True.
	And I think we're seeing a pushback against mandates now.
	The Supreme Court has allowed for religious exemptions.
	This is huge.
	So these changes that are being put in place are going to make a big impact because parents have the choice.
	And based upon films, based upon the evidence that they've seen, based upon the COVID experience, many, many more of them are going to be saying no.
	Not now, not for my children.
	We're going to wait and see.
	It's now many, many, almost the majority of Americans are changing the schedules.
	Not that they're not getting any vaccines, but they're saying we're going to do this more slowly.
	We're going to break them up, et cetera, et cetera.
	And so we're not going to have COVID.
	We're not going to have the influenza vaccine.
	So the numbers are somewhat distorted at the moment on how many are getting vaccines, but I think that what we're seeing is the market pushing back.
	And that resistance is going to define what vaccine uptake looks like in the future until if they can convince people that they're safe.
	And you and I know, having been in this for a very, very long time on existing data and existing studies, they can't do that.
	Seems like we're going to have really two Americas, or you could choose to divide the people this way.
	You're going to have one group of people that are just actually ignorant of the risk of harm of vaccines.
	And they're probably the same people who don't know that sodium nitrite in processed meat also causes cancer and other similar types of things.
	And those people are going to suffer a lot of chronic degenerative conditions.
	They're going to be victims of the medical establishment.
	And they're going to need a lot of payouts of health insurance and Medicare, etc.
	And then you're going to have this other group of Americans who are very well-informed, self-learning people who take responsibility for their health outcomes and they make choices of what to avoid versus what to intake.
	Good nutrition coming in, but avoiding toxins.
	Yet these two groups will coexist.
	One group has a future.
	The other group, not so much.
	You're absolutely right.
	It's a huge evolutionary pressure being put on mankind at the moment.
	I have a great fear that, as you say, there's this group and this group who continue to follow policy and continue to have vaccines and are unhealthy for a variety of reasons.
	They're at, in many cases, a socioeconomic disadvantage.
	Let me give you an example of what I mean, is that children are, or parents are rewarded for having their children participate in vaccine trials.
	There is a financial incentive, number one.
	Number two is to get welfare benefits from the system for your child.
	They need to be vaccinated on schedule.
	And they get extra benefits for disability.
	So if you're poor or socially disadvantaged, then you're going to rely upon that government money more and more and more, and therefore your children are likely to be in an exposure group that's much higher.
	True.
	And that will reflect itself in various groups within the socioeconomic structure.
	And also think about probably universal basic income is going to be arriving soon.
	And perhaps not with this administration, but the future administration could easily tie those benefits to vaccine schedule compliance.
	That's right.
	And very, very sadly, that puts this group of people at socioeconomic disadvantage, and that can involve racial elements and societal elements at risk, at higher risk.
	Now, this is the value of film, is that if you can make a film that is entertaining, and films have to be entertaining, if you don't have an entertaining film, you don't have an audience.
	No one's going to pay any attention.
	And you make it then informative on the back of that.
	If you distill all of this complex information into something that is entertaining and understandable for an audience, whatever their socioeconomic background, then they're going to say, yeah, I get it.
	Okay, that meant something to me.
	I am educated.
	I'm going to go to my doctor and say, how about this?
	What about that, Thompson?
	So what about this?
	What about that?
	Have you seen that film?
	And so part of the imperative for making these films is that you reach a very, very broad audience, including many of those who might otherwise have not known about these issues or not been in a position to do anything about it, you know, because they are, you know, under great socioeconomic pressure.
	But a question about the distribution of your films and their reach.
	You've had great success with many of your films so far.
	But Netflix is going to be merging with Warner Brothers Studios, I believe, which has a lot of people in Hollywood are extremely concerned that this is a great centralization of editorial control over films, obviously, and talent.
	And Netflix becoming this monster, perhaps.
	I doubt Netflix would ever carry your films for all the obvious reasons, but is that ever a possibility where some larger group would air your films?
	I think it's changing.
	It has been very, very difficult.
	We have suffered enormous censorship of our movies.
	Just individuals who are in charge of disinformation, knowing nothing about it, saying, yeah, no, that's not going to play.
	I mean, huge decisions made for huge swathes of the population based upon absolutely no knowledge at all, just a particular bias or a job description that says, this is what you will do.
	Are things going to get better?
	Yes.
	As the truth emerges, as the listening of the viewing public becomes of a particular mindset, okay, we want to see this movie about vaccine safety because then things are going to change.
	It's very uncomfortable at the moment.
	Distribution is a difficult one for us.
	That's why we're developing our own platforms to get these movies out.
	Yes.
	Thank heavens for setups like yours on social media that are able to access large swathes of the public.
	Joe Rogan, people who've come from the other side and said, you know, there's a problem here.
	Many, many people who are getting the word out there.
	And so I think on the one hand, yes, you have these huge organizations, the Hollywood studios who are going to exert a major influence on how it's going to look in the future.
	But on the other side of the equation, you've got this enormous interest across the world in social media and access to alternative information that is making sense and has actually been right on so many matters.
	Who am I going to watch?
	I'm going to watch these guys.
	So, and I know we're coming up on time.
	I want to be respectful of your time, but I have to ask this other question related to this.
	So right now, in terms of creating content, we are seeing a shift from where instead of people buying typical books, for example, we launched our book Creation Engine.
	And when I was interviewing Brian Festa earlier, or no, I was on with Jeffrey Prather before that.
	We created a book in 20 minutes, and it was amazing.
	It was a book about sharpening knives.
	And the AI engine did all the research and created the book.
	Consumers, instead of looking for the book they want, they can create the book they want and it's free.
	This will also happen in video in the next 24 months, especially short-form video like mini documentaries.
	People will be able to prompt a mini documentary.
	I want to see a documentary about volcanoes.
	Wow.
	And they're going to get that.
	In fact, we're going to build this too for our book engine.
	The books are going to become mini documentaries.
	Within two to three years, full-length feature films will be able to be produced with the AI actors, the voice, the script writing.
	That'll be an agent that writes the script, everything.
	Now, it's not going to be the same kind of quality of film that you do with your human heart and passion.
	But the consumer is going to be prompting what they want to watch much more in the years ahead.
	And then the question becomes, will the engines allow discussion of vaccine safety in the movie prompts?
	Wow, the bard is turning in his grave.
	What a thought.
	Right.
	What a thought.
	It's a tragedy.
	I mean, soon, though, it's a music.
	You create songs just like that in 30 seconds, and they're great.
	They're great songs.
	The number one country music hit is AI song on the charts.
	Yeah, I have to believe.
	I love writing.
	I love nuance.
	I love inflection.
	I love all of the things that make acting human and great.
	And the idea that it's going to be superseded by a machine.
	I guess I'm too old-fashioned to quite believe at this stage.
	That's why I've had my time, you know, almost.
	It's just, it's probably better that I don't see it happen, although it may happen sooner rather than later.
	But I got to say, I was surprised at the fact that I can, I can, as an AI developer, I can sign up for lots of APIs of AI engines that they will write content critical of vaccines through the API, but not on their public-facing websites.
	So the public face is more censored, but behind the scenes through the API, not so much.
	Sneaky.
	Right.
	Well, I'm wondering if the same thing would be true with video, because the video engines require significant infrastructure of compute.
	But filmmaking, as you are demonstrating, it's such a powerful form of communication.
	And even you as a filmmaker, you could benefit from these tools that could you're still the director.
	You're still the one writing the script, the screenplay, determining the roles of the actors, but the actors are digital.
	Look, I love what you said about human actors as well.
	I absolutely honor that.
	I'm just saying that this is the way a lot of people are going to consume content in the years ahead.
	It's very clear.
	And people like you and I can still play a role of creating content in those areas that would otherwise be censored.
	Mike, if we're talking about it, someone's already doing it.
	You know that.
	It's happening in some form, and it's just a matter of seeing how it turns out.
	It's fascinating, both fascinating and horrifying at the same time.
	Well, let me give you an example.
	Like our book engine, I published a book a couple of days ago simply titled, Vaccines Cause Autism.
	That book's available free of charge for everybody.
	No publisher would touch that book.
	Not on their life, you know?
	So think about your films.
	No major studio will back your films.
	You have to resort to every alternative means of distribution or production or getting investors, etc.
	So AI is just one more tool in your tool set, potentially.
	Yeah, it would be a great way of putting, even just putting a pitch together.
	Exactly.
	Yeah.
	You go to investors with 10 minute.
	Three minute reel, yeah.
	And they can see the movie as it, you know.
	Exactly.
	As it looks.
	I just think, I think these can be available.
	Interrupting me, Mike.
	It can empower you to create more without having to put in the intense days, the 4 a.m. wake-up calls for filming that day.
	Don't you have to do that?
	Well, we will do that anyway.
	The creatures are having.
	Oh, okay.
	But anyway, it's an amplifier of your intent.
	And I think that your passion for helping humanity is so strong and it deserves to be reflected through every tool available.
	That's my take.
	Thank you, Mike.
	Appreciate it.
	I didn't mean to drag you down the AI route.
	No, no, no.
	It's fascinating.
	I know nothing about it, but I clearly need to learn.
	Well, I am happy to share what I know with you anytime you ask.
	So you're always welcome here.
	Thank you.
	Is there anything else you'd like to add before we wrap this up?
	No, just a message to mothers out there.
	Trust your instincts.
	Your maternal instinct is the most powerful force on the planet in terms of shaping our evolution.
	It may be God's greatest gift because mothers, unlike pediatricians, know their children, know when they're well and ill and know what they need and what they don't need.
	So medicine tries to usurp that.
	The man in the white coat tries to take that away.
	Don't let him because you know better.
	Well said.
	Well said.
	I want to thank you for spending time with us here today.
	It's an honor to know you.
	And I want to remind people of your website, WakefieldMedia Group.com.
	That's it.
	To get in touch with us, info at wakefieldmedia group.com.
	Perfect.
	And you're open to conversations with potential investors who want to help support films.
	Is there a minimum dollar amount that someone should consider, like 50 or 100K or something?
	Yeah, that would be great.
	The more the better, obviously.
	And please, you know, we've existed so far on donors.
	Now we're very happy to take on investors and make, you know, this is a real professional setup.
	That's what we.
	Well, let me send, let me give this message to you and your potential investors.
	We will help promote your new film.
	Thank you, Mike.
	I would love to have you back.
	We can help you launch the film.
	We'll link to it.
	You know, we'll help it be as successful as possible.
	Bless you, Mike.
	Thank you very much.
	Happy to help.
	You're a powerful force of good in this world, and we are blessed to have you here.
	Thank you.
	Thank you so much.
	Thank you.
	All right.
