    Anika Sweetland: “IPCC EXPOSED!!! Response to a global problem? Or formation of 1 world gov’t?” #410

    07/07/2026 | 47 mins.
    Anika Sweetland argues the IPCC was created through politics, funding, and elite influence, tracing its origins to the 1985 Villach Conference and alleging it advances centralized global governance. She says media-driven fear shifted from 1970s “ice age” stories to 1988 “global warming,” citing sea-level warnings that did not occur. Sweetland claims climate finance and clean-energy investment incentives benefit IPCC-linked officials. She highlights Climategate emails as evidence of strategic data presentation (“hide the decline”), message management, and peer-review gatekeeping (“PAL review”), plus an alleged journal blacklist. She says her climate studies education omitted Climategate, emphasized policy “solutions,” and discouraged debate.

    Liam DeBoer | Tom Nelson Pod #409

    03/07/2026 | 57 mins.
    Liam DeBoer describes his Substack blending philosophy, psychology, culture, politics, and history, and argues in “Your Ruling Class Is Not Secular” that modern materialist elites still express religious impulses by mapping “soul,” apocalypse, and salvation narratives onto gender ideology, climate change, and revolutionary politics. He discusses Orwell’s 1984 as a psychological study of totalitarianism reshaping perception, and links current activism to young women, noting polling showing young women moving left and widening dating/marriage mismatches. He predicts widening Western factional conflict, references the “fourth turning,” and explains Nietzsche’s ressentiment and victimhood. He outlines “daycare governance” in a feminized institutional culture and summarizes “political ponerology” archetypes behind authoritarianism. He details Canada’s “Vancouver model” money laundering tied to triads, casinos, and politics, and discusses censorship, platform throttling, and Zuckerberg’s motives.

    Ken Jensen: “The Enemies of Reason” | Tom Nelson Pod #408

    30/06/2026 | 1h 4 mins.
    Ken Jensen describes his background in environmental toxicology and medical devices, then argues morality can be grounded without religion. He traces a “true, good, beautiful” triad from Plato through Vitruvius and maps it to objective reality, reciprocity/voluntary exchange, and beauty/grace, contrasting it with a destructive “DOI” (destruction, opposition, inversion) force. He critiques management tactics like permanent crisis, “red dot” diversions, and misuse of Romans 13, citing Katrina clergy response teams. He promotes a “dartboard” model over left-right politics, says ethics and morality are inseparable (Nuremberg vs Nazi view), warns about EU-style centralization, CBDCs, and praises ridicule as a defense. He discusses sound money and presents his books The Enemies of Reason and The Memo.

    Hügo Krüger: “Great idea: If it’s really too hot in your house, get some AC” | Tom Nelson Pod #407

    28/06/2026 | 29 mins.
    In a Paris heatwave (33–40°C), Hügo Krüger says France suffers more indoors because only about 25% of homes have AC, unlike near-universal AC in the US/Japan. He describes ideological and regulatory resistance to AC from ecologists and left-wing politicians, despite AC being a reversible heat pump and France’s electricity being largely nuclear. Apartment rules, aesthetic objections, and energy ratings discourage installation; subsidies favor air-to-water heat pumps that can’t cool. Demand for fans and AC is surging, and politicians propose easing restrictions. He expects fewer deaths than 2003 due to heat alerts, but argues AC would reduce vulnerability.

    Erich Schaffer: “Water Vapor Feedback, Part Two” | Tom Nelson Pod #406

    26/06/2026 | 1h 47 mins.
    Erich Schaffer critiques the “super greenhouse effect” and argues that tropical outgoing longwave radiation stays flat mainly because tropospheric temperature is sluggish relative to surface temperature, not because water vapor amplifies greenhouse trapping. He says regional and seasonal proxies for water vapor feedback are invalid (citing admissions by Ramanathan/Inamdar and Dessler et al.) and claims interannual proxy results are distorted by aspect-ratio choices and improper OLS regression, advocating TLS or rotated-benchmark methods. Reanalyzing published plots (Spencer, Lindzen-Choi, Chung, Andy May), he concludes water vapor plus lapse rate implies strong negative feedback and low ECS (~1 K). He also alleges data “fudging” and broader scientific incompetence.
