• 1204: Chris Dalby | The Criminal Infrastructure Beneath Modern Sports

  Young athletes are trafficked into European soccer prison camps while crime syndicates launder billions. Chris Dalby reveals the dark underbelly of sports.Full show notes and resources can be found here: jordanharbinger.com/1204What We Discuss with Chris Dalby:Human trafficking is rampant in modern sports: Thousands of young athletes, particularly from Africa, are lured to Europe with false promises of professional contracts, only to end up exploited in "soccer prison camps" while families go into debt.An illegal sports betting empire thrives: A $1.7 trillion annual industry controlled by organized crime syndicates, primarily Asian groups operating from countries like Cambodia, Vietnam, and Thailand through sophisticated networks.Sneaky "spot fixing" corruption rigs games: Instead of fixing entire match results, players are paid to perform specific actions like getting yellow cards or missing shots, which are harder to detect but easier to execute.Gambling sponsor fronts operate in plain sight: Crypto and gambling companies dominate sports sponsorships worldwide, often serving as money laundering fronts, with some sponsors being illegal in their own team's countries.Solutions exist: Law enforcement can be trained to detect sports crime, integrity monitoring works (tennis has improved significantly), and awareness platforms help protect vulnerable young athletes from scams.And much more...And if you're still game to support us, please leave a review here — even one sentence helps!

• 1203: Veganism | Skeptical Sunday

  Is veganism a healthy lifestyle or social cult with nutritional gaps? Decades-long vegan Jessica Wynn weighs in on this Skeptical Sunday!Welcome to Skeptical Sunday, a special edition of The Jordan Harbinger Show where Jordan and a guest break down a topic that you may have never thought about, open things up, and debunk common misconceptions. This time around, we’re joined by writer and researcher Jessica Wynn!Full show notes and resources can be found here: jordanharbinger.com/1203On This Week's Skeptical Sunday:There's a myth that it's impossible to properly nourish the human body on a vegan diet — but nutritional planning is crucial for optimizing one's health on any diet. B12 supplementation is essential for vegans, and iron absorption improves when paired with vitamin C. Done wrong, any diet can lead to deficiencies."Junk food veganism" defeats the health purpose of this lifestyle. Oreos and processed fake meats are technically vegan but nutritionally empty. Ultra-processed foods aren't healthy regardless of origin.Factory farming ethics drive many vegans. Animals experience pain, fear, and joy, yet ag-gag laws hide slaughterhouse conditions. Environmental impact includes massive water usage and pollution.True veganism extends beyond diet. Hidden animal products lurk in cosmetics (fish scales in mascara), clothing (leather), and processed foods. Reading labels becomes investigative work.Focus on whole foods regardless of diet. Shop the grocery store perimeter for fresh produce, minimize processed foods, and listen to your body's needs for optimal health and balance.Connect with Jordan on Twitter, Instagram, and YouTube.

• 1201: Benjamin Bikman | Insulin Resistance Is Killing Half of America

  Insulin resistance triggers everything from Alzheimer's to erectile dysfunction. Dr. Benjamin Bikman examines the metabolic crisis shared by 50% of America.Full show notes and resources can be found here: jordanharbinger.com/1201What We Discuss with Dr. Benjamin Bikman:Half of US adults have insulin resistance without knowing it. It's the upstream driver of most chronic diseases — from high blood pressure to erectile dysfunction to Alzheimer's — not just diabetes.Medical focus on blood glucose misses the real problem. Insulin levels are rarely tested, yet elevated insulin drives disease years before blood sugar becomes abnormal.Fat cell size matters more than total fat. East Asians develop insulin resistance with less weight gain because they have fewer, larger fat cells versus more, smaller ones in Europeans.Insulin resistance causes brain starvation. When neurons can't access glucose due to insulin resistance, cognition declines — which is why some in the medical community refer to Alzheimer's as "type 3 diabetes."Type 2 diabetes is reversible through carb restriction. In one study, 11 newly diagnosed patients reversed their diabetes in 90 days by eating unlimited protein and fat, just limiting carbs.And much more...And if you're still game to support us, please leave a review here — even one sentence helps!

• 1200: Science vs. Religion | Skeptical Sunday

  The war between faith and facts threatens American progress on multiple fronts. Michael Regilio dissects this age-old conflict today on Skeptical Sunday!Welcome to Skeptical Sunday, a special edition of The Jordan Harbinger Show where Jordan and a guest break down a topic that you may have never thought about, open things up, and debunk common misconceptions. This time around, we’re joined by skeptic, comedian, and podcaster Michael Regilio!Full show notes and resources can be found here: jordanharbinger.com/1200On This Week's Skeptical Sunday:Throughout history, from Socrates to Galileo, religious authorities have consistently opposed scientific inquiry that challenges established beliefs — often with severe consequences including death and persecution.American fundamentalist Christians continue fighting evolution in schools, adopting tactics from outright bans to "creation science" to "Intelligent Design" — all repeatedly struck down by courts as unconstitutional.Religious opposition to science directly impacts public policy, hampering stem cell research, climate action, and pandemic response — with white evangelicals having the lowest COVID vaccination rates.Faith-based practices like conversion therapy cause documented psychological harm despite being condemned by all major medical associations — prioritizing religious doctrine over scientific evidence and human wellbeing.Many scientists are religious believers who see science as understanding creation, not replacing it — showing faith and science can coexist when literalism gives way to metaphorical interpretation and evidence-based thinking.Connect with Jordan on Twitter, Instagram, and YouTube.
