The Brian Nichols Show: What’s Really in Your Meat from the Store?

Why are your tax dollars funding animal cruelty—and why hasn’t anyone stopped it yet? In today’s jaw-dropping episode of The Brian Nichols Show, we expose one of the biggest blind spots in American politics: factory farming and its disturbing alliance with government funding. From hormone-injected meat to unethical animal treatment, we break down exactly how federal bureaucracies—yes, even ones you’ve never heard of—are propping up industrial agriculture using your money. This isn’t just about food. It’s about corruption, cronyism, and what happens when we let the state dictate what’s on our plate. We have a new show on Lions of Liberty! The Politicks Podcast! Be sure to subscribe to the standalone Politicks Podcast feed. This is the absolute best way to support the show! Listen and subscribe on Apple Podcasts and Spotify. And remember, they’re all Blood Suckers! Studio Sponsor: ⁠Cardio Miracle⁠ - "Unlock the secret to a healthier heart, increased energy levels, and transform your cardiovascular fitness like never before.": ⁠CardioMiracle.com/TBNS⁠ Liam Gray from the Wilberforce Institute joins us to walk through how these government-backed practices are harming not just animals, but your health, your wallet, and your local economy. We tackle the deeper questions: Why are taxpayers footing the bill for Big Ag’s bad behavior? What alternatives exist that don’t involve banning meat or forcing a vegan agenda? And how can we pursue liberty and moral responsibility at the same time? We also highlight real-world solutions like Thomas Massie’s PRIME Act and the recent Supreme Court rollback of Chevron Deference, showing how decentralization and consumer awareness are finally starting to push back. You’ll learn how some states are taking their food sovereignty seriously—and how small farmers are finding ways to thrive without bureaucratic interference. If you’ve ever looked at a grocery store steak and wondered what’s really behind the label—or if you’re just tired of being forced to subsidize industries that don’t align with your values—this episode is for you. It's time to reclaim your dinner plate from the hands of unelected bureaucrats.❤️ Order ⁠Cardio Miracle⁠ (⁠CardioMiracle.com/TBNS⁠) for 15% off and take a step towards better heart health and overall well-being!📧Submit Listener Questions to ⁠brian@briannicholsshow.com⁠ to hear your questions and perspectives answered and shared each and every week! 🎙️ WATCH The Brian Nichols Show, available on ⁠YouTube⁠ & ⁠Rumble⁠.

The Brian Nichols Show: Why Does The Government Hate Food Trucks?

Why can’t you sell grandma’s famous cookies without jumping through government hoops? What if the biggest thing holding back local food entrepreneurs isn’t the competition… it’s the red tape? In this episode, we dive into the absurdity of cottage food laws, the bureaucratic roadblocks facing small business owners, and why government “help” is often anything but helpful. We have a new show on Lions of Liberty! The Politicks Podcast! Be sure to subscribe to the standalone Politicks Podcast feed. This is the absolute best way to support the show! Listen and subscribe on Apple Podcasts and Spotify. And remember, they’re all Blood Suckers! Studio Sponsor: ⁠Cardio Miracle⁠ - "Unlock the secret to a healthier heart, increased energy levels, and transform your cardiovascular fitness like never before.": ⁠CardioMiracle.com/TBNS⁠ We’re talking with writer and policy analyst Noah Gould, who breaks down his bombshell article from National Review about how Michigan’s food entrepreneurs are getting choked out by outdated, confusing, and downright nonsensical regulations. Want to butter toast at an event? Better have a separate license. Want to scale past $25K in revenue? Hope you enjoy navigating six different regulatory agencies. This isn’t just a Michigan problem – it’s a national trend. The government claims it’s keeping you “safe” with all these rules, but grocery stores don’t even trust the bureaucrats. They demand third-party certifications anyway. So why does the state still get to decide which food is “worthy” of your plate? Brian and Noah don’t stop at highlighting the problem – they expose the cronyism, the fear-based exceptions, and the outright hypocrisy in how regulations are enforced. And most importantly, they lay out how we can fight back: with smarter laws, voluntary standards, and a market that rewards real value – not political connections. Whether you’re a food truck dreamer, a liberty-minded policy nerd, or just sick of overpriced junk food being your only option, this is the conversation you need to hear. This episode will get you fired up, hungry for change, and ready to push back against the bureaucratic nonsense that’s killing small business in America.

The Brian Nichols Show: Why Are Medicine Prices So High in America?

Is the war on PBMs really about helping patients - or just another power grab dressed up as reform? In this eye-opening episode of The Brian Nichols Show, we rip the mask off the growing crusade against pharmacy benefit managers (PBMs). Critics claim PBMs are behind rising drug costs, but is that the full story - or just the version Big Pharma wants you to believe? If you’ve ever looked at your pharmacy receipt and wondered why your medication costs more than your electric bill, you won’t want to miss this deep dive. We have a new show on Lions of Liberty! The Politicks Podcast! Be sure to subscribe to the standalone Politicks Podcast feed. This is the absolute best way to support the show! Listen and subscribe on Apple Podcasts and Spotify. And remember, they’re all Blood Suckers! Studio Sponsor: ⁠Cardio Miracle⁠ - "Unlock the secret to a healthier heart, increased energy levels, and transform your cardiovascular fitness like never before.": ⁠CardioMiracle.com/TBNS⁠ Brian welcomes economist and researcher Satya Marar from the Mercatus Center to break down how PBMs actually work, why they’re being blamed for high drug prices, and what the real drivers of healthcare inflation are. Together, they dismantle the most common talking points against PBMs, including rebate manipulation, lack of transparency, spread pricing, and claims of collusion with insurers. It's a masterclass in separating economic fact from political fiction. We also unpack the emotional tug-of-war between small-town pharmacies and corporate chains. What happens when “Fred’s Pharmacy” can’t compete with CVS and Walgreens? Is it worth paying more for drugs to keep the local guy afloat - or are there smarter ways to balance access, cost, and community values without wrecking the system? But here’s the kicker: what if the real culprit isn't the PBMs at all, but a broken government pricing system and global freeloading by other countries? Yeah, we go there. From Medicare’s price models to how the U.S. subsidizes R&D for the world, we expose what’s actually driving your pill prices through the roof. If you're sick of the soundbites and want real answers about the mess that is American drug pricing - this episode delivers.
