Pairodocs' Podcasts

I’ve interviewed Dr. Matt Strauss before . He is an ICU doctor, has journalism training, and is a very wise and widely read man. You may recall that he has been the MOH (Medical Officer of Health) for Haldimand-Norfolk in Ontario through a good chunk of the pandemic. Matt’s “alt-right” views - crazy things like thinking kids should be in school, thinking that vaccine mandates and travel restrictio...

You may already know the name of Dr. Richard Schabas from hearing him on the news or reading him in the newspaper from his many years as a prominent public health official, including 10 years as Chief Medical Officer of Health of Ontario. But you won’t have heard him for the last 3 years, as he was blacklisted for his heretical views on COVID. “All doctors agree that X is true” now means that “we...

This is the latest in a series of podcasts with our speakers who will be presenting at our inaugural Free Speech in Medicine conference Oct 28-30, 2022 in Baddeck, Nova Scotia. Information is online at freespeechinmedicine.com . Many of you listening to this will already know the name Francis Christian. In 2021 Francis was a surgeon who was ousted from his job for daring to suggest that children s...

This is another of our speaker preview podcasts for our upcoming FreeSpeechInMedicine.com conference in Baddeck, Nova Scotia Oct 28-30th. When the pandemic first hit, most docs I knew were very nervous. I was very nervous. We were watching catastrophic news stories out of northern Italy, then NYC. Some of us quickly figured out that corporate media was not giving us a full picture. Maybe because t...

This is another of the preview interviews of our FSIM conference speakers. I knew Trish Wood’s name long ago. She was a CBC investigative journalist, and I grew up in a house with CBC on most of the day. This was back in the days when Peter Gzowski told stories that united us. When investigative reporters like Trish held the feet of government and big business to the flames. It wasn’t perfect, but...

This—the latest Free Speech in Medicine conference speaker interview—is with Dr. Shawn Whatley. Shawn has the intellectual range to read and speak about subjects from medical administration to philosophy and political science, and the range of focus to go from the rapid fire job of ER doc to writing books. (As a typical ER personality on the ADD side of the spectrum, I’m best writing short bursts...

I feel very blessed to have had such an amazing group of people agree to come and speak at our Free Speech in Medicine conference. What a privilege to talk to them, thereby rubbing shoulders with some great thinkers, movers and shakers. Dr. Stanley Goldfarb is a brave, well-spoken and brilliant guy. He is a board-certified kidney specialist, and former Professor and Associate Dean for Curriculum a...

Bruce Pardy is an accomplished man. He is a law professor at Queen’s University in Kingston, Ontario. He is the driving force behind rightsprobe.org . He has presented to parliamentary committees , done high profile events with the likes of Jordan Peterson , and written important and impactful op-eds for national publications. He is well-read, philosophical, and even better he is a fun guy and an...

James Topp has been a member of the Canadian Armed forces for nearly 30 years. He has served his country honourably here in Canada and in combat overseas. Like many of us, he started to feel COVID policy creating an accelerating authoritarianism. When federal government employees and those in the military were mandated to take an experimental vaccine or lose their jobs, he broke rank. Eventually,...

DoctorsNS, which ostensibly "speaks for” physicians in NS, recently sent an email missive on how upset we all were about the Dobbs decision in the US which repealed Roe v. Wade. But many physicians who spoke with me had a much more nuanced understanding of this subject, and were not on board with the release, which seemed to have all the elements of virtue-signalling and bandwagon-jumping without...

Anyone who has met me knows I like to chat (and then some). Don’t be in a hurry to go anywhere if you get me started on something that interests me. I figured I’d might as well put my gift of gab to good use and add a podcast component to the Pairodocs. This was the first podcast I recorded, although the 2nd I posted. Apologies for sound quality or editing glitches, but I’m doing this on my own an...
