This week on The Disinfo Detox, host Nolan Higdon is joined by five powerhouse guests to unpack the chaos, censorship, and political fallout after the murder of Charlie Kirk. From late-night TV to college campuses, the ripple effects are everywhere—and the media spin machine is working overtime.
👉 Craig Aaron (Free Press) on Jimmy Kimmel’s removal from ABC after his Kirk comments
👉 Mickey Huff (Project Censored / Ithaca College) on the censorship wave gripping media and academia
👉 Steve Macek on how the Utah Valley University shooting is fueling fear and silencing speech on campus
👉 Robin Andersen (Fordham University) & Allison Butler on competing narratives—from right-wing fights over Israel, to Scott Galloway’s take on young men, to the debate over political violence itself
If you want to cut through the noise and understand how media, politics, and power collide in moments of crisis, this episode is a must-watch.

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.
