Media Roots Radio

Media Roots Radio on Psychedelics: Episode 1: A Brief History of Hallucinogens, MK-Ultra, the CIA, LSD, Leary & the Psychedelic Sixties / Seventies Robbie and Abby Martin start the series by exploring the Western world's initiation into psychedelics: the CIA buying up the world's supply of LSD to administer MK-Ultra's dark experimentation against unwitting subjects as well as thousands of volunteers through research organizations and front groups at elite universities which spawned Silicon Valley. They discuss the evolution of main characters like Timothy Leary and how the San Francisco Bay Area became a hotbed of psychedelic renaissance through the hippie movement, from the Grateful Dead to Ken Kesey. Figures like John Lilly were attempting to sync consciousness with dolphins using hallucinogenic drugs and performance art by the likes of Alex Grey and others became representative of the era. Nixon's 'War on Drugs' started the reactionary wave of psychedelic criminalization. This is Episode 1 of an ongoing series on Psychedelic History, Episodes 1-4 are availible now.

[ UNLOCKED Patreon exclusive episode ] Robbie Martin continues his series on the George W Bush smallpox bioterror scare, this time laying out the series of events and shining a light on the hyperbolic media coverage that culminated with the official Whitehouse smallpox vaccination rollout plan. A plan which creepily paralelled the buildup to the US invasion of Iraq. When the MSM covered smallpox bioterrorism from 2002-2003, Iraq becomes an increasingly mentioned potential suspect for unleashing this deadly plague. Why do virtually no Americans remember this additional hysterical fear mongering campaign about smallpox from Bush & Cheney? Robbie tries to figure out the answers as he takes you further down the labyrinthine memory hole of the post-9/11 era. This is Part 3 of an ongoing Anthrax-adjacent Media Roots Radio series about Smallpox bioterrorism.

Robbie Martin brings onto the podcast Gumby, a meticulous and unique researcher who specializes in the subject of what the US government calls "Biodefense". Recently Putin and other members of the Russian government have accused the US government of doing dangerous experiments and potentially making biological weapos in several Pentagon Defense Threat Reduction Agency sponsored labs in Ukraine. Robbie and Gumby take a close look at these accusations and the political upheaval and media reactions they have caused in the first half of the podcast. In the second half they break down which deadly pathogens or unmistakable biological weapons the US actually does experiment on in Ukrainian labs as well as examining the multitude of other DTRA sponsored labs in several other countries that used to be part of the Soviet Union like Kazakhstan, Azerbaijan and Armenia.

[ UNLOCKED Patreon exclusive episode ] Part 4 of the Media Roots Radio Smallpox Bioterror Hoax miniseries starts just 4 months before the launch of the Iraq war. In this episode Robbie lays out a litany of exclusively pulled TV archive clips, official US documents and official statements in late 2002 and early 2003 which make a strong case for the ‘pre-event’ Smallpox vaccination program playing a crucial (but memory-holed) role in the propaganda talking points deployed by the Bush administration for the war. Colin Powell mentions smallpox in his infamous UN speech about Iraq’s alleged ‘mobile biological weapons labs' and the fear became so intense domestically that 40% of Americans polled at the time believed that a smallpox bioterrorism attack was ‘likely’.
