This week on The Disinfo Detox, host Nolan Higdon sits down with Mickey Huff—Director of Project Censored and Distinguished Director of the Park Center of Independent Media (PCIM) at Ithaca College—for a no-holds-barred conversation about the digital media environment as the new corporate media.
Together, they break down:
👉 Taylor Lorenz’s explosive reporting on dark money shaping Democratic Party narratives
👉 David Pakman’s curious response—and what it reveals about media loyalty
👉 Bari Weiss’s sordid history of media manipulation and her new CBS contract
👉 Gavin Newsom’s mean tweet strategy and what it says about political PR in 2025
If you want to understand how corporate capture, dark money, and media spin shape the stories we’re fed—and what that means for democracy—this is a must-listen episode.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
