My Dear Reader

As a thank you to my free subscribers I will release one paywalled episode each month. I understand that not everyone is in a position to be a paid subscriber, times are tough, and the cost of living crisis is hitting hard worldwide.

When I first started this podcast, there was no paywall. Even now, deciding what should and shouldn’t be behind a paywall remains one of my biggest challenges. My mission has always been to give a platform to voices that need to be heard, exposing the controlled narratives of mainstream media, and, as I’ve come to realise, even some corners of alternative media.

How You Can Support My Mission:

If you’d like to help, the best way is to spread the word. Share my newsletter, podcast episodes, and links with your friends, family, and colleagues. Mention the podcast on social media, group chats, or any community spaces. The only way to fight back is by raising awareness and ensuring a significant minority refuses to comply with the predator class’s agenda.

If you haven’t already, make sure to give me a follow and leave a 5 star review on Spotify and Apple podcast!

About this guest -

Gary Fettke is an Australian orthopaedic surgeon and one of the loudest voices questioning mainstream dietary guidelines. Known for his controversial stance, Gary champions a low-carb, high-healthy-fat (LCHF) approach and is outspoken about the dangers of refined sugars, processed foods, and industrial seed oils. Over his career, he’s seen the devastating impact of modern diets on patients, and his conviction that poor nutrition fuels chronic diseases has only strengthened. He advocates for fresh, local, seasonal food, urging a shift away from ultra-processed, high-carbohydrate diets that he believes contribute to obesity, type 2 diabetes, and metabolic illness.

However, Gary's message hasn’t been welcomed by everyone; he’s faced fierce opposition and even formal censure from Australian medical authorities for his low-carb advocacy and for challenging established dietary norms. He and his wife, Belinda, have also uncovered significant conflicts of interest within the food and healthcare industries. For instance, they've highlighted how religious organisations, such as the Seventh-day Adventist Church, and major processed food manufacturers have influenced public dietary advice, a reality that few are aware of but one Gary sees as deeply troubling.

His work, often featured on health platforms like CrossFit and Diet Doctor, urges people to “swim against the current” of traditional health advice and reclaim control over their diets. For Gary, medical freedom of speech and a science-based approach to nutrition are essential steps towards creating a healthcare system that genuinely serves public health, not vested interests.

About this episode -

As two dissident orthopaedic surgeons, we share our journeys in the medical field and our frustrations with the current healthcare system.

It was an incredible honour to sit down with Gary and have this chat. Being late to the party and waking up to the various medical and non-medical scams and frauds in the last few years, I have only become aware of Gary and his work in the previous 2 years. But Gary has been awake to much medical corruption and nonsense for almost 2 decades. He is truly a trailblazer. The path he has taken has meant that the system has attacked him. With the love and support of his wife and the public, Gary has continued to be an activist and campaigner for real health.

In this chat we tackle some tough issues, from corruption within medical boards to the powerful influen
