    Ancient Greek Expert: Was Jesus Taking Drugs? | Dr. Ammon Hillman

    15/10/2026 | 56 mins.
    Dr. Ammon Hillman says the evidence is in the Bible. So I ask him to show me…

    Follow Ammon: https://www.youtube.com/@ladybabylon666

    Following his viral appearances on the Danny Jones podcast, Dr Ammon Hillman joins Andrew Gold on Heretics to explain his extraordinary claims about Jesus Christ, ancient Greek and biblical translation. I wanted to understand how he reaches those conclusions—and whether he could back them up.

    We examine his interpretation of Jesus’ arrest in Mark 14:51–52, his claim about the meaning of “Christ”, and his arguments about Hebrew, the Septuagint and the origins of the Old Testament. Along the way, we get into ancient drugs, Greek mystery religions, Lucifer and demon possession.

    I question his claims about both Christianity and Judaism. Giving someone a fair hearing doesn’t mean sharing their beliefs—and this conversation includes plenty of pushback, disbelief and unexpectedly funny exchanges. As it goes on, even my nose becomes part of the discussion.

    Hillman is a classicist, author of The Chemical Muse and the creator behind Lady Babylon. But what happens when I ask him to take me from the ancient words to his most controversial conclusions?

    Which argument would you most want him to substantiate? Tell me in the comments, and subscribe to Heretics for more unusual guests, challenging questions and conversations you won’t forget.

    Our Enemies Can Now Hack Our Minds - Gregg Hurwitz

    12/10/2026 | 1h 6 mins.
    Gregg Hurwitz says your nervous system is being hacked. And once a system learns your weaknesses…

    International bestselling Orphan X author Gregg Hurwitz joins Andrew Gold on Heretics to explore mind control, social media manipulation and the hidden forces shaping what you believe.

    Follow Greg here: https://x.com/GreggHurwitz

    From his startling claims about TikTok, pupil tracking and biometric data to troll farms operating hundreds of devices, Hurwitz describes how platforms, foreign regimes and political opportunists exploit human psychology. Why would Russia, China and Iran want to fuel BOTH sides of a culture war? And how many of the accounts influencing your opinions belong to real people?

    Drawing on his research inside mind control cults, Gregg explains how fear, conformity and algorithms can change our perception of reality. We also explore the psychology of liberals and conservatives, psychopaths in politics, censorship, Charlie Kirk, and the unsettling parallels with George Orwell and Aldous Huxley.

    Who decides what appears on your screen—and what happens after it captures your attention?

    How Elite Societies Secretly Control You - Mark Booth

    08/10/2026 | 58 mins.
    I asked how secret societies manipulate you. The answer was much closer to home…

    Freemasons, secret rituals and powerful men behind closed doors. Mark Booth, also known as Jonathan Black, joins Andrew Gold on Heretics to explore the hidden teachings of secret societies—and the unsettling claims made about their influence.

    Mark describes ancient mystery schools where revealing secrets allegedly meant death, terrifying initiation ceremonies, and practices he believes can give people power over others. Yet he insists Freemasonry is fundamentally benevolent. I challenge him on what happens when powerful people decide they know what’s best for humanity.

    Then the conversation gets stranger: scientists practising the occult, a table that isn’t what it seems, the possibility of living in a simulation, consciousness after death, and intelligence that could be older than humanity itself.

    Mark is the author of The Secret History of the World and The Secret History of the Universe.

    Which claim surprised you most—and which would you challenge? Let me know below, and subscribe to Heretics for more conversations that question what we think we know.

    I Was Candace Owens’ Boss. What She’s Doing Is Evil - Daily Wirer Co-Founder Jeremy Boreing

    Jeremy Boreing, co-founder of The Daily Wire, joins Andrew Gold on Heretics for a blunt conversation about Candace Owens, Tucker Carlson, demons and the future of Britain.

    Having worked with Owens, Boreing gives his assessment of her relationship with truth, fame and self-interest. We discuss her claims about Brigitte Macron, her attacks on Erika Kirk, and why he believes “just asking questions” can become character assassination. He also explains his spiritual interpretation of Tucker Carlson’s account of being attacked by demons.

    Then we turn to immigration, high-trust societies, free speech and what Boreing calls the “third-worldisation” of social media. Is Britain importing values it once left behind? And what happens when a civilisation abandons the beliefs that helped sustain it?

    The conversation gets personal when I admit that I want to believe in God—but can’t make myself believe. We explore Christianity, atheism, Richard Dawkins and the fear of death, before discussing Ben Shapiro, the rise of the Daily Wire and Boreing’s King Arthur series, The Pendragon Cycle.

    People Think I Was Canceled. I Wasn't - Sopranos Star Drea De Matteo

    01/10/2026 | 59 mins.
    Drea de Matteo says she wasn’t cancelled. Then she reveals what her agent did…

    Check out Drea's brilliant show: https://www.youtube.com/@TheULTRAFREEPodcast

    The Sopranos star Drea de Matteo joins Andrew Gold on Heretics for an unfiltered interview about Hollywood, cancel culture, vaccine mandates and the cost of refusing to play along.

    Best known as Adriana La Cerva in The Sopranos and for her role in Sons of Anarchy, Drea describes being dropped by her agent without a phone call, facing foreclosure and turning to OnlyFans. But the question she says she was asked while caring for the woman who raised her takes this conversation somewhere much darker.

    We discuss Donald Trump, RFK Jr, Robert De Niro and why Drea questions Hollywood’s celebrity political endorsements. She also reveals her surprising first Sopranos paycheque and what happened when a harness snapped during a violent scene.

    Plus, Drea shares her views on geoengineering, religion and institutional power — before we confront what people actually mean when they call Hollywood “demonic”.

    How much should someone have to sacrifice to keep working in Hollywood? Share your thoughts below and subscribe to Heretics for more conversations about free speech, power and questioning the establishment.
