The Other Side of The Story
Sat | Sun 7 pm ET
Journalists used to consider it their solemn obligation to report on the issues they covered from a variety of perspectives. This is no longer the case. More than a decade ago, reporters abandoned the responsibility to be open to alternative viewpoints as the media organizations they worked for became wholly-owned subsidiaries of liberal, so-called progressive corporations. Then, as we got more and more of our ‘news’ via the Internet from Google, Facebook, Twitter, and other social media, Orwellian censorship became the norm.
Tom Harris and Todd Royal break through this iron curtain of political correctness, giving listeners THE OTHER SIDE OF THE STORY on issues in science, technology, politics, health, and even entertainment. Whether you agree with their perspectives or not, THE OTHER SIDE OF THE STORY is your must-listen antidote to the propaganda of the Fourth Estate.
Tom Harris is Executive Director of the Ottawa, Canada-based International Climate Science Coalition and a policy advisor to The Heartland Institute. He has 42 years of experience as a mechanical/aerospace engineer, science and technology communications professional, and S&T advisor to a former Opposition Senior Environment Critic in Canada’s Parliament.
Todd Royal is a McKinney, Texas-based energy policy expert and author. A graduate of Pepperdine University’s School of Public Policy, Todd’s expertise has informed the United States Department of Energy, the U.S. Department of Commerce, the U.S. Congress, and the States of Kentucky, California, and Texas. His subject matter expertise covers hydraulic fracking, green hydrogen, battery storage technologies and nuclear reactors. A member of The Screen Actors Guild, Todd is also a trained actor with experience on stage, on television, in film and as a voice actor.
Rather than judging companies merely on objective financial metrics, corporate executives are now being compelled by woke shareholders and regulators to demonstrate that the corporation is working to further environmental and social goals that have nothing to do with…
In reality, wind and solar power facilities are expensive, short-lived, unreliable, and arguably the least environmentally friendly energy sources on the planet. To top it off, human rights abuses galore are found throughout the supply chain of these machines. Listen to our discussion with Mark Mills in this week’s episode to…
It is not surprising that language has always been an important weapon of war. Delivered with rhetorical flair, language has driven ordinary citizens to perform heroic acts of self-sacrifice in defense of their countries while pushing others to incomprehensible acts of stupidity and barbarism. Rhetoric is also key in the political battle over climate change…
Not a single computerized climate model has come even close to what we measure in the real world. Yet, pushed by United Nations bureaucrats, it is these hopelessly flawed computer models that are the sole “scientific” basis underlying billion-dollar decisions the Biden administration, the Trudeau government, and indeed…
Professor Happer takes us behind the scenes in the Trump White House, where he regularly met with the former president and realized that Mr. Trump well understands that the climate “emergency” does not exist. However, we learn why the President was limited in what he could do to kill the scare and what he must do if he wins a second term in 2024…
European elites are starting to recognize that their dependence on Putin for critical resources was a strategic mistake that must be corrected as soon as possible. But rather than advocating an expansion of domestic conventional energy production, Europe’s “progressive” intelligentsia says that all this shows that we must move even faster away from fossil fuels…
Germany will be closing its last nuclear power station at the end of this year and will shut down all remaining coal-fired stations in only 16 years. Their leaders would like their public to believe that Germany will run mostly on wind and solar power, a complete impossibility. Wolfgang Müller is general secretary of the European Institute for Climate and Energy…
Even in Brazil, a nation that has the resources to be energy self-sufficient, climate hysteria has taken root leading to scientists, engineers, and economists who know what is really going on being censored and canceled from the information sources the public relies upon. Fighting back against the woke mob is outspoken chemist Dr. Rafaella Nascimento of Brazil…
Nothing short of disaster ensued in competitiveness, economic growth, employment, energy security, freedom, and even personal safety when the country erupted in protest about its declining standard of living. This week, conservatives must listen to our interviewee, Douglas Pollock, who shows what happened in his country when its governments…
“A Prime Minister who openly admires the Chinese basic dictatorship, who tramples on fundamental rights by persecuting and criminalizing his own citizens as terrorists just because they dared to stand up to his perverted concept of democracy, should not be allowed to speak in this house at all.” German MEP rep Anderson said, “Mr. Trudeau, you are a disgrace for any democracy. Please spare us your presence.”
The “help” American astronaut Mark Vande Hei, who, as of Saturday, will have been on the International Space Station for 345 days (a record for the US), needs is a flight home when his mission ends on March 30. Happily, Russia has agreed to fly him and two Russian cosmonauts aboard a Russian capsule to Kazakhstan, no problem…
Russia took over Georgia with barely a fight. Russia took over Crimea with no fight at all. Russia greatly assisted Assad in Syria with barely a peep from the Obama administration except for a speech that Obama made ‘if they cross this red line, ever use chemical weapons against their own citizens, we will act.’ The free world did nothing. So, you had this pattern going…
With his walk from coast to coast across America to promote freedom, Cedric Keith set a shining example of what a single individual can do in the defense of our Constitutionally-guaranteed rights. If you care about liberty, now is the time to speak up!
In today’s program on The Other Side of the Story, we are joined by David Okerlund, a philosopher, poet, writer, and internationally-renowned motivational speaker. David guides listeners in how to get out of the rut that prevents us from achieving the high levels of happiness and purpose that is possible if we engage in, as fellow motivational speaker Zig Ziglar…
