Blind trust in medicine: Are you getting the whole story?
Yesterday at 9:43 PM

America Out Loud PULSE with Malcolm Out Loud and Dr. Jim Thorp – Trust has been damaged. Another marketing campaign will not repair it.

10/29/2026

America Out Loud PULSE with Malcolm Out Loud and Dr. Robin Armstrong – A prolonged blackout would threaten hospitals, water systems, food distribution, and public order.

10/28/2026

America Out Loud PULSE with Dr. Robin Armstrong – Life is the first promise in life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. Without it, every other opportunity disappears.

The fight for America
10/14/2026

America Out Loud PULSE with Dr. Robin Armstrong – The 2026 midterms put congressional control and President Trump’s agenda at stake.

The midterms are about more than choosing leaders
09/30/2026

America Out Loud PULSE with Dr. Robin Armstrong – As a physician, I think first about healthcare.

Getting back to play: The neuroconnection
09/29/2026

America Out Loud PULSE with Dr. Angelina Farella – Play and its importance have been downplayed over the decades.

Allison Inquiry on the vaccine injured, with Jim Thorp, MD
09/24/2026

America Out Loud PULSE with Malcolm Out Loud and Dr. Jim Thorp – What made the inquiry so powerful was not rhetoric, but testimony.

Against the lockdown consensus: Jay Bhattacharya on censorship and scientific dissent
09/18/2026

America Out Loud PULSE with Dr. Randall Bock – The critic has administrative authority, budgets, personnel, grant policy, and the constraints that come with governing.

What Charlie Kirk’s death revealed about America
09/16/2026

America Out Loud PULSE with Dr. Robin Armstrong – His death should have called us toward unity and reflection. Instead, too many on the left responded with gloating, conspiracy, and contempt. That reaction reveals a deeper sickness. When politics becomes so poisonous that an opponent’s murder is treated as a cause for celebration, the republic is in danger. Yet there is another lesson here...


When doctors stop asking why: The crisis in American medicine
09/15/2026

America Out Loud PULSE with Dr. Angelina Farella – The real scandal in American medicine is not only cost. It is the steady loss of curiosity.

Crisis of confidence! Measles. Vaccines. Statins. Q&A #208
09/10/2026

America Out Loud PULSE with Malcolm Out Loud and Dr. Angie Farella – They watched institutions defend mandates with a certainty that later looked more like arrogance than science.
