Your phone knows where you sleep, where you work, who you spend time with, what you search for, what you buy, where you worship and potentially even what political events you attend. And according to Joe Weil and Matt Green of Unplugged, most people have no idea how much of that information is being collected, sold and stored.Joe and Matt join the Truth Hurts Show for a deep dive into the surveillance economy hiding inside the device almost everyone carries in their pocket.They explain how ordinary apps continuously generate data that can reveal a person's pattern of life, why a VPN may not stop apps from identifying your real location, and how first party and third party tracking work behind the scenes. The conversation gets darker when AI enters the equation.Joe and Matt argue that the massive amount of information already collected about consumers becomes exponentially more powerful once AI can analyze it at scale. Your photos alone can reveal your relationships, locations, clothing preferences, habits and insecurities. But this episode goes beyond one phone.It becomes a much bigger conversation about freedom versus convenience, whether Americans have unknowingly traded privacy for free apps, why surveillance has become an economic model worth trillions and whether AI will finally make that model too powerful to ignore.Follow US!Brian's LinksInstagram: / https://www.instagram.com/briangoldphd TikTok: / https://www.tiktok.com/@briangoldphd Makan's LinksInstagram: / https://www.instagram.com/Makan.Mostafavi TikTok: / https://www.tiktok.com/@makanmostafaviJoe and Matt Link’sInstagram: / https://www.instagram.com/weare_unplugged Website: / https://unplugged.com/ X: / https://x.com/weare_unplugged Timestamps: 00:00 Welcome Joe and Matt!05:14 How apps build a pattern of your entire life11:27 Joe’s journey into Unplugged and the freedom versus convenience problem18:06 Matt’s cybersecurity background and the threat of deplatforming24:41 Why switching phones does not erase your old data30:18 Why VPNs cannot stop every form of tracking35:52 Stingray technology and tracking phones at protests42:16 How an IMEI number can follow your device48:37 The surveillance pyramid from app tracking to phone extraction55:21 Cellebrite, device cracking and what happens when authorities take your phone1:01:46 The emergency PIN that wipes your phone and creates decoy data1:07:33 Pegasus spyware and zero click attacks1:14:09 Why AI could make sophisticated cyberattacks dramatically cheaper1:20:31 Your photo library may be more valuable than you realize1:26:04 The $10 trillion surveillance economy1:30:42 Unplugged’s plan for private AI and American manufacturing1:34:11 Where privacy technology goes from here #Unplugged #Privacy #CyberSecurity #Surveillance #AI Hosted on Ausha.

Kim Rogers is known online as the “Worm Queen,” and she believes parasites are a much bigger problem than most people realize. In this episode, she breaks down the symptoms she associates with parasites, where she believes people are picking them up, and the personal experience that turned her obsession with worms into a business that she says has now shipped more than 300,000 kits worldwide.Kim makes some massive claims. She says eating late at night, grinding your teeth, unexplained bloating and other symptoms can be signs of parasites. She discusses pinworms, tapeworms, hookworms and roundworms, and explains why she believes pet owners in particular should be paying attention.Then things get graphic.Kim describes finding pinworms, flukes and roundworms during her own cleansing journey and claims she even documented what she believed were pinworms emerging through her skin. That experience helped launch her online following and eventually earned her the name “Worm Queen.”Kim’s views and product claims should not be taken as medical diagnosis or treatment advice, and several claims discussed in this conversation are controversial or not established by mainstream medical evidence. But if you’ve ever wondered why the internet has become obsessed with parasite cleanses, this episode takes you directly inside that world.By the end, you may never look at sushi, tap water or your dog the same way again.Follow US!Brian's LinksInstagram: / https://www.instagram.com/briangoldphd TikTok: / https://www.tiktok.com/@briangoldphd Makan's LinksInstagram: / https://www.instagram.com/Makan.Mostafavi TikTok: / https://www.tiktok.com/@makanmostafaviKim’s LinksInstagram: / https://www.instagram.com/mrsrogers.hood/ Website: / https://rogershood.com/YouTube: / https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC0DqZB28z2jtUSLgXyC-N9g Timestamps: 00:00 The Worm Queen Returns02:26 The Signs Kim Associates With Parasites06:41 Pinworms and the Itchy Butt Problem10:53 How Kim Approaches Parasite Cleansing15:17 Kim Says Worms Came Out of Her Skin19:46 The History of Worms and Public Health24:32 Can Your Pets Give You Parasites?28:58 Tapeworms and the Weight Loss Rabbit Hole33:21 Foods Kim Says Parasites Love37:44 Sushi, Raw Food and Flash Freezing41:16 Kim’s Experience Finding Worms in Water45:39 Water Filters and What Kim Uses at Home49:07 How the Worm Queen Built Her Business#KimRogers #WormQueen #TruthHurtsShow #Parasites #ParasiteCleanse #GutHealth #Tapeworm #Pinworms #Hookworms #Roundworms #GutHealth #WaterQuality #Sushi #HealthPodcast #RogersHood Hosted on Ausha.

But underneath the celebrity, money and glamour was another world entirely.Jonathan eventually became a pioneering tattoo artist and met Johnny Depp before Depp had become a household name. They were young, immersed in Hollywood’s punk and drug scene, and Shaw says they were both heavily using heroin during that period.Years later, Shaw says he began recognizing pieces of himself in Depp’s performances and claims he became one of the inspirations behind Captain Jack Sparrow.But this conversation goes far beyond Johnny Depp.Jonathan discusses his belief that his mother participated in early MKUltra-era LSD experimentation and describes her connection to people associated with the CIA program.At 73, Shaw has survived addiction, arrests, Hollywood, decades on the road and a life that reads more like fiction than biography.It’s the story of a man who lived on the edge of celebrity, addiction, art and self destruction, survived it all, and came out the other side with an entirely different view of reality.Follow US!Brian's LinksInstagram: / https://www.instagram.com/briangoldphdTikTok: / https://www.tiktok.com/@briangoldphdMakan's LinksInstagram: / https://www.instagram.com/Makan.MostafaviTikTok: / https://www.tiktok.com/@makanmostafaviJonathan’s LinksInstagram: / https://www.instagram.com/jonathanshawworks/Facebook: / https://www.facebook.com/JonathanShawWorks/Timestamps:00:00 Welcome Jonathan!04:17 Growing Up Inside Old Hollywood09:36 Meeting Johnny Depp Before He Was Famous14:52 Heroin, Punk Rock & Hollywood in the 1980s20:41 Did Jonathan Inspire Jack Sparrow?26:08 Hitchhiking Across Mexico With Almost Nothing31:47 Learning to Tattoo Sailors & Traveling the World37:26 Charles Bukowski, Writing & Finding His Own Path43:11 Addiction, Sobriety & Surviving Himself49:38 The Arrest That Nearly Put Him Away55:44 Returning to Tattooing & Becoming a Legend01:00:27 Growing Up Around Hollywood’s Dark Side01:04:53 His Mother, LSD & MKUltra01:08:21 CIA, CERN & Jonathan’s View of the Occult01:11:06 David Icke & Who Jonathan Believes Really Holds Power01:13:12 Where to Find Jonathan Shaw#JonathanShaw #JohnnyDepp #JackSparrow #Hollywood #HollywoodInsider #MKUltra #CIA #DavidIcke #TattooHistory #HeroinAddiction #AddictionRecovery Hosted on Ausha.

After brain tumor scares, cancer, autoimmune issues, neurological problems and three invasive lipedema surgeries, Mariam Hakopyan reached a point where she stopped waiting for someone else to fix her health.Her own experience eventually led her to build Empower Wellness Spa in Encino, where she focuses heavily on lymphatic health, red light therapy, vibration therapy, ozone sauna and noninvasive body treatments.In this episode, Mariam breaks down what lipedema actually looks like, why patients can struggle with disproportionate fat and painful nodules, and what happened after three surgeries left her dealing with fibrosis, inflammation and a long recovery process.She says one of the biggest lessons from that experience was how little attention people give their lymphatic system.Mariam explains why she believes movement, lymphatic drainage and detoxification became major pieces of her recovery. After changing her routine and cutting most grains from her diet, she says she lost more than 30 pounds in roughly three and a half months without another invasive procedure.If you've ever wondered whether inflammation, lymphatic stagnation and recovery are being overlooked in the modern health conversation, this episode will make you think differently about what may be happening beneath the surface.Follow US!Brian's LinksInstagram: / https://www.instagram.com/briangoldphd TikTok: / https://www.tiktok.com/@briangoldphd Makan's LinksInstagram: / https://www.instagram.com/Makan.Mostafavi TikTok: / https://www.tiktok.com/@makanmostafaviMariam’s LinksInstagram: / https://www.instagram.com/mariam_masha_hakopyan/ YouTube: / https://www.youtube.com/@EmpowerWellnessSpa Website: / https://empowerwellnessspa.com/ Timestamps: 00:00 Welcome Mariam!02:14 What Lipedema Actually Is05:37 Three Surgeries and the Recovery Nobody Warned Her About08:46 Why She Started Questioning Western Medicine11:28 Losing More Than 30 Pounds Noninvasively14:07 Why Lymphatic Health Became Her Obsession16:52 How Endospheres Lymphatic Therapy Works19:31 Her 360 Wellness Protocol21:48 The Ozone Sauna Experience That Changed Everything24:16 Mariam Says Parasites Came Through Her Pores27:03 What Ozone Therapy Feels Like29:22 Hyperbaric Oxygen, IVs and MTHFR31:41 Why She Avoids GLP 1 Weight Loss Drugs33:26 Weight Loss, Toxins and Lymphatic Stagnation35:12 How to Find Empower Wellness Spa #EmpowerWellnessSpa #TruthHurtsShow #Lipedema #LymphaticHealth #LymphaticDrainage #OzoneTherapy #OzoneSauna #RedLightTherapy Hosted on Ausha.

Sean Stone’s journey into Freemasonry led him into a world of occult rituals, strange encounters, and unsettling questions. In this episode of the Truth Hurts Show, he takes us inside his experiences with Freemasonry, secret societies, occult traditions, unexplained encounters, UFOs, AI, Epstein, adrenochrome and the hidden structures he believes influence the world around us.Sean opens up about being initiated into Freemasonry and explains why he views it as an initiatory tradition rather than simply a secret society. But his story takes a much stranger turn when he describes mysterious phone calls that appeared to coincide with his initiation and later occult experimentation. He recounts receiving disturbing calls from unknown numbers, including one after experimenting with writings attributed to John Dee, the Elizabethan scholar associated with Enochian occult practices.Sean also explains why he believes life is ultimately about transformation and why spirituality, suffering and constantly confronting new perspectives have shaped his worldview. Whether you believe Sean's interpretations or question every one of them, this conversation will challenge you to think about secrecy, spirituality, power and how easily the line between documented history, personal experience and speculation can disappear. This isn't a surface level conversation. It's a 69 minute trip straight down the rabbit hole.
