    2/15/2026 | 18 mins.
    At AmFest, Sean Kelly speaks with Ryan Williams (aka “Scottish Korean”) about being detained under the UK’s Schedule 7 powers, what that process looked like, and how online speech, policing, and platform bans collide in 2026.

    Ryan shares his perspective on controversial posts that led to scrutiny, how authorities handled his devices/accounts, and why he believes cultural and political tensions are escalating across Europe.

    Lucia Aronica: “Egg Yolks Don’t Raise Cholesterol (Stanford Scientist Explains) | DSH #1827

    2/14/2026 | 36 mins.
    At the A4M Conference, Sean Kelly sits down with Dr. Lucia Aronica (Stanford lecturer + nutrigenomics/epigenetics researcher) to break down how food “talks” to your genes — and why most people are missing the nutrients that actually run the “software.”

    They debunk the cholesterol + eggs myth, explain why choline is a forgotten essential nutrient, and introduce Dr. Lucia’s practical framework for “epi-nutrition”: using specific foods to flip epigenetic switches that support brain health, metabolism, inflammation, and longevity.

    🎯 What You’ll Learn

    🧬 How the epigenome acts like software that turns genes on/off
    🍳 Why egg yolks + cholesterol fear is mostly outdated science
    🧠 Why choline matters for brain, liver, and gene regulation
    🥗 How to build meals that support gene expression (protein + plants)
    🧫 What fermented foods do (pre/pro/postbiotics)
    ⚖️ What the Stanford twin study results do and don’t prove
    🔥 How weight gain creates an epigenetic “fat memory” (and how it fades)

    Chapters (Timestamps)

    0:00 – The cholesterol myth (eggs aren’t the villain)
    0:32 – Meet Dr. Lucia Aronica at A4M
    0:53 – DNA hardware vs epigenome software
    1:28 – “Epi-nutrition”: nourishing genes with food
    2:24 – The “usual suspects”: protein + colorful plants + fermented foods
    4:30 – Why animal protein matters (B12 + choline)
    5:09 – Choline: the forgotten essential nutrient + the “4-yolk formula”
    9:59 – Microplastics, salmon, and the 80/20 approach
    12:04 – Stanford data: dietary cholesterol vs blood cholesterol
    14:07 – Twin study takeaways + long-term vegan caveats (B12/choline)

    607 Unc vs Gary The Numbers Guy: The Real Satan, Matrix, Cr*ck Prophet? | DSH #1826

    2/13/2026 | 53 mins.
    This one gets chaotic fast.

    In this debate on Digital Social Hour, Gary and 607 Unc go head-to-head in a heated, unfiltered clash that jumps from numerology and “God code” to religion, simulation theory, masculinity, discipline, and what “real spirituality” even means.

    The conversation turns into a tug-of-war over truth vs performance, faith vs self-belief, and whether you can actually help people through systems like numerology—or if it’s all just entertainment.

    It’s intense, unpredictable, and weirdly revealing: two totally different worldviews colliding in real time, with moments of insight buried inside the chaos.

    ⏱️ Chapters

    0:00 — 607 Unc’s “God code” + frequency worldview
    0:40 — Gary returns and the tension starts immediately
    2:10 — Status, “respect,” and the flex turning into a clash
    4:20 — Identity arguments and reality vs narrative
    7:30 — IQ vs awareness: what matters more?
    10:00 — Reset after the ad break
    12:10 — Masculinity/femininity + relationships + “spiritual” rules
    21:10 — Prayer vs commanding outcomes (self-belief vs faith)
    33:00 — Teaching vs entertainment: who is this really for?
    52:30 — Wrap + Part 3 teased on 607 Unc’s channel

    🎯 What You’ll Learn

    🧠 Why “systems” (numerology, astrology, religion) pull people in
    ⚡ How ego derails debates even when both sides share values
    🎭 The difference between being entertaining vs being useful
    🗣️ How conversations spiral when respect disappears
    🔥 Why polarizing personalities still win attention online

    “Your TV Is Watching You” — Ken Paxton on Big Tech Tracking | DSH #1824

    2/12/2026 | 16 mins.
    Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton joins us at AmFest for a rapid-fire conversation on the biggest power fights happening right now: big tech, big pharma, censorship, data privacy, and the limits of federal authority.

    Paxton explains why he believes tech platforms shape elections through algorithms, how Section 230 protects platforms while they still “curate,” and why he says states have to step in when Washington won’t. He also talks about lawsuits involving Meta and biometric data, his broader legal battles with past administrations, and why he thinks the next wave of conflict is over control of information.

    We also touch on the cultural tension on campuses, the role of faith and purpose for young people, and why Paxton believes political movements often grow after major national tragedies.

    🎯 What You’ll Learn

    📺 How smart TVs allegedly monetize viewing behavior (and why lawsuits follow)
    🧠 How algorithms can shape what people see—and what they don’t see
    ⚖️ Why Section 230 keeps coming up in big tech legal battles
    🧬 What “biometric data” means (and why states sue over it)
    🏛️ Why states vs. federal power is the core fight in many lawsuits
    🎓 Why campus culture is becoming a political battleground
    🗳️ How Paxton frames Texas politics heading into elections

    ⏱️ Chapters (timestamps)

    0:22 — Ken Paxton joins us at AmFest
    0:52 — The message he plans to speak about

    Elizabeth Barcohana: Why Kids Can’t Read. The Education Battle Nobody Wants to Talk About |DSH #1825

    2/12/2026 | 27 mins.
    We sit down with Elizabeth Barcohana (LA-based activist and political organizer) to talk about what she says is really driving the deterioration of daily life in Los Angeles: crime, cost of living, homelessness, and a broken revolving-door justice system.

    Elizabeth breaks down how public safety has changed for families, why she believes policy choices (not funding) are the root issue, and how the teachers unions + curriculum battles became a major turning point after 2020.

    We also get into the online spike in anti-Semitism, how misinformation spreads when people don’t have a historical foundation, and the internal infighting on the right she believes is being fueled by media ecosystems and social platforms.

    🚨 Why Elizabeth says LA crime feels “normalized” now
    👩‍👧 The real-world safety habits moms have had to adopt
    🏙️ How homelessness intersects with mental illness + addiction
    ⚖️ Why “revolving door” justice (and bail policy) changes outcomes
    🧠 Why she thinks education is the upstream battleground
    📚 How textbook markets can shape what the whole country learns
    ✡️ Why anti-Semitism spikes during unstable social/economic periods
    🗣️ How online narratives can divide people inside the same movement
