Eight minutes after seven on the Bill Myers Show, we appreciate Carol joining the show here in just a moment.
Carol, we've been talking off and on with people who ended up living a more rustic life back in the day,
because there's this new show on Magnolia Network premiering
tonight. They're going back to the 1880s and it's really interesting to watch various families and
you know, giving up their modern conveniences and truly living in that style. What was it like
for you? Because you had a little bit of that when you were growing up. Was that a younger time?
You had a little bit of that when you were growing up? Was that a younger time?
Oh yes, when I go to my mother's parents' place, my grandparents' place, they had no
indoor toilet.
There was outdoor in the outhouse.
And in the winter, if you were there in the winter, it was cold.
And it was hot in the summer.
What era was this? Back to North Dakota, I should say that.
Oh, North Dakota.
What part of North Dakota, Carol?
About 90 miles from Fargo, west of Fargo.
Yeah, because I can still hear a little bit of the accent in there with you.
Right on the freeway.
Fargo.
Yeah, and they were, I was one of 10 kids. My older sister couldn't help dad out on the farm.
There were three girls first. And so I was helping dad out on the farm. I did everything from driving
tractor to shoveling grain to stacking hay and just picking rock. I did everything.
And in the summertime,
which is when we did the workout in the farm,
you had to carry water upstairs
unless you wanted to take a cold bath.
And we were all dirty.
So we had to take bath and shower coming in from the farm.
Yeah, yeah, you had to. So we had to take bath and shower coming in from the farm. Yeah, yeah you had to.
So we had to carry water upstairs.
In the winter, we didn't have to carry water upstairs to take a shower for school or anything
because we had coal furnace.
Yeah, but let me tell you though, having lived a couple of years in Fargo, in that neighborhood,
North Dakota, you get real winter there, not fake winter. Oh, yeah, sometimes. Oh, you did, you did get, but that neighborhood. North Dakota, you get real winter there, not fake winter.
Oh, yeah. But there weren't so many that I remember. The biggest one I remember was in
was 69, I think it was, with that huge storm. Three solid days that, no, it couldn't have been in 69, it was early, or 62 it was,
because I was in college at the time in Jamestown, and it snowed and it blew for three solid days.
At the end of that time, the kids were jumping off the roof of the college into the snow. You know the one thing I do
remember about living in North Dakota for that time, North Dakota and Minnesota, it's
like Fargo-Moorhead, you know, lived in both areas. And I had a more semi-rural house for
the second half of it in Moorhead, out in rural Moorhead, is that you get used to the cold after a while.
You do. I'd rather have cold than hot. Even now I'd rather have cold.
Yeah, and I'm the same way. I would go out and at that point, it was like 1999, I'm getting the
newspaper and it's in the middle of the winter. It's like maybe two or three degrees outside.
you know, two or three degrees outside. And I just got, you know, I got slippers on and a pair of sleeping shorts and a t-shirt. It is like no big deal. I just walk out, get
the paper, walk back in. It's fine, right? You really do acclimate to whatever was the
climate at that point. But I was not able to... The heat still bothers me though. The
heat's tough. Yeah, oh, the heat... Yeah, he bothers me. To this day, it bothers me more than the
cold because cold you can bundle up. Yeah. Yeah. Heat is bone deep.
All right. Hey, Carol, thanks for sharing this. So this was in the 1960s or so you were growing up on this farm.
But is the farm still in your family? Just curious.
It is. It is. They don't farm it, but they have somebody else farm it.
Okay. All right.
And my brother grows sweet corn there. So I go back every summer to be with my mother, who is 104 as of May 2nd.
So I go back every summer to be with her now.
Because she lives on the farm that we grew up in, the farmhouse.
Then remodeled, but it's the same farmhouse.
What a great story.
You know, one of my favorite memories of Fargo, or in North Dakota in general, was driving
past...
Now, you grew corn and various other things, but they have sunflower, just miles of sunflower
fields off of the highway.
It was some of the most beautiful, beautiful farm fields ever.
That happy yellow and just miles of these.
Blacks. Blacks is pretty too. They're blue. They're fully blue.
Thank you for sharing.
You're welcome.
Alright. I really enjoy that.
770-5633-770-KMED.
...Friday and then we'll be in the triple digits all the way into next week.
Dave's out the Iron Gate area and Dave, you had interesting stories about, like I said,
we're talking about people living in more rustic times than now.
Yeah, yeah.
My mom was born in North Dakota.
I don't know exactly where on her birth certificate it said Bismarck, but she was telling me, as a
little girl, that she hated the outhouses, because in the wintertime
they would freeze over. Yeah, and how do you take care of that? I mean,
in Bismarck, North Dakota, a frozen-over outhouse, that's serious. That's very serious. Yeah, but anyways, she told me that she lived
there when the Dust Bowl was there, back in the 30s, and I think she was nine when
they moved to Raven, Washington, in a Woody. Oh, a Woody? Right, so we always teased her. She came over by horse and wagon.
Love it.
Because a Woody was a car.
Yeah, the car, the old Ford wagon, right? The old Ford wagon with the wooden sides, right?
Yeah, and they had a Woody truck, too. A truck that hauled all their belongings with them.
Yeah. Well, cue the theme from the
Waltons. Right? Not so much the Waltons. It's more like Little House on the Prairie.
All right. Thanks Dave. I appreciate that. 7705633. Let me grab another call here. And good morning.
Hi, this is Bill. Who's this? Hey, good morning. Keith out of who's this a good morning Keith out of
cave junction hey Keith how you doing yeah just daylighted into technology
here in Crescent City real quick story about what you're talking about my
father washed his face and armpits forgive me for all this detail, every night. He took a shower once a week.
That's my story. You know something, that's probably the biggest change being able to have
running water and reasonably heated running water and just even a quick shower to get the
daily grime off of you what a luxury that is when you contrast it with a
shower once a week and a sponge bath in the rest of the time right?
Side story many years ago when I was a firefighter we used to see who could go
the longest without a shower and And if I remember right, the
record held by Bob Hubbard is nine days. Nine days. Did Bob Hubbard have
many friends by the end of that? We had 20 of them. I was on a hotshot crew back in the 70s. What we did and what we said
would get us in so much trouble today legally. But if you, and talk to
Greg about this, it's not an easy thing to do fighting wildland fire, especially when
you were doing hotline. And I would imagine there's a bit of gallows humor
that goes on there in that kind of a job. Is that fair? If you don't have a
sense of humor, you don't stay there because it's a hard job. Yeah, it is. Takes a hard people to do it.
I appreciate the call.
19 after seven.
Here's Bill Meyer.
Happy to take your calls, anything on your mind.
We've been kind of waxing poetic
for the last few minutes on what it was like
in an earlier time, a little more rustic deal,
because there's a new reality TV show on Magnolia tonight
that I was previewing, and it was quite interesting. Quite interesting to see families duking
it out on finding a way to repair their homesteading cabins from the 1880s and
living with 1880s kind of technology, the outhouses, all the rest of it. I mean
truly, you know, no cell phones, no nothing, and just having to
to rough it for a couple of months. Eight, nine weeks I guess they were doing
this. That's quite thought-provoking really. And Jim's in Grants Pass. Jim, did
you experience some of this as a child or what do you remember? My mom did, but
she shared it with me later. She was born in 1940. We call her our hillbilly mother. She was born in 1940 in Somerville, South Carolina.
She was born to a birthing mother. She didn't go to a hospital. Her mom gave birth
to her in a 40 by 40 one-room shack. One-room shack, that was it, right? One-room
shack. And that was on that TV show it was premiering last night or looking at, it was
the same sort of thing. They were kind of surprised that everything was sort of an open floor concept
before we called it that, but that, you know, the idea of walls, you just had maybe walls on the
outside, that was it, right? And the thing is, you know, her mom raised her until she got old enough to walk. And then my mom
was tasked with going down to the creek and bringing water up. And they had an outhouse,
no running water, no electricity. Her, my grandmother gave birth to three more kids the same way,
in the same shack. My mom ended up helping raise her three siblings,
and they lived in that place until my mom was 22. And then they packed up and moved
to Toledo where she met my dad at Toledo Motor Speedway when he was racing. They got married
and I was born a couple of years later. Well, when I came back from Germany,
from being stationed over there,
and then my mom, we met together in Calais in South Carolina
and had a couple of week vacation, had fun.
And we went up there where her family lived
and we went by and that shack was still standing.
No kidding.
It was still standing and we walked the property
and it was just amazing what she went through.
No running water, no like nothing.
There's some old pictures of her.
He was a flat out hillbilly.
Yeah, I'm kind of curious, Jim, what do you think about this if you had to, you know,
the infrastructure that we're blessed with, you know, these days
between internet and water and electricity, would, do you think that, is electricity more
important than the water or was the running water really the beginning of more civilization,
I guess, you know, having, you know, not having to go to the creeks and things like that, and also,
I guess, the sanitation that you would have
with running water rather than... What do you think? Any thoughts?
Personally, myself, I can do without any of it. No problem. I've done it before for
months and years. The kids nowadays, I think they would rather have the
internet and electricity more than they would want water and food. I've always, you know, my daughter, if you don't like you, we
grew up without the internet and all that, cable and all that, and I've always
said I wish the president had one button that was to turn the internet off,
and the web off for a month, and let these kids go outside and experience life like
we did. Yeah, but he'd probably be walking outside and blinking eyes, you know, not being able to.
What is that outside? Oh, it's the sun, right? You know, that kind of thing.
And oxygen. There's oxygen outside. You're actually not allergic to it. You're not allergic to playing.
You know, Jim, we have some great kids in my neighborhood, around my neighborhood, and it was
great to see some new families moving in
and they've got their kids and they're playing on the street
and they're doing all these other things.
But I do find it interesting that as it got hot,
their parents ended up getting them those basketball hoops,
you know, you put the water in the base
and then they stick them out there.
And they really got into it for a little while.
And then they kind of got out of it. I have a feeling that the parents were more into the
basketball than maybe the kids were into the basketball. And I can't help but think that
there is an awful lot of computer gaming going on in the summertime. Yeah, we've got some amazing kids in our neighborhood.
They're really respectful, really great kids.
But when they're outside playing,
they're always on their cell phone.
Really?
Yeah, it's amazing to watch, you know,
five, six, you know, mid-teenagers,
a little bit younger kids, so-called playing,
but all they're
doing is they'll kick something through a little bit, a little soccer ball or
play, just for a little bit, and then they're on their phones, dancing around,
doing their little social media posts. I imagine if we had grown up with those
tools we probably would have done the same thing. I don't think kids are any
different now than they ever used to be. Yeah, my dad and my mom
wouldn't allow me to have a cell phone until I got out of the house.
Yeah, they were pretty strict about that. They, like everybody else growing up at
that time, they was first thing in the morning you got kicked outside to play.
Yep, that was it. Don't come back until the streetlights come on.
When I was in Milan as a 10, 11-year-old, it was pretty rural around our house.
We lived out on the main highway coming through town.
I would leave the house in the morning and I'd take my BB gun or whatever it is and I
just go out all day. All day. And, you know, and we seem to be okay.
Nobody was worried about being carted off by perverts, although I'm sure plenty of perverts
existed even then.
But I think that that is one gift though that the stay at home mom culture had even in those
days, which is that anybody that wanted to do bad things in a
neighborhood, they knew that every home or most every home had someone in it paying attention
and watching.
Yeah.
Your mom always knew you were in trouble before you got into trouble.
Yeah.
Yeah.
In many cases.
Jim, appreciate you sharing your story about that too.
Great one.
Okay. All right. Have a good day that too. Great one, okay? All right.
Have a good day, Bill.
You too, now.

the sides of them something that cools them down. Once you put them near stones, stepping stones, or have them like around the gravel mulch,

Myers show. Debbie writes me this morning, the email bill of Bill Myers show.com.
Bill, I just had the yearly look at my power bill use by Pacific Power and Light
usage, which hasn't changed much in many years on our part. It just increased by 50 percent a
hundred dollars more a month. This is just nuts. And then the governor tells us
that our roads this winter will be more dangerous due to personnel layoffs.
Government of Oregon needs to be changed. Yeah, it is not for
the people but for the elite individuals who love power and money. Enough said.
Now you know when it comes to the the cost of the power here, Debbie, you know
what's going on here. This is a part of the decarbonization. And remember how
decarbonization was sold to the sheep?
And I knew it was a lie even back then.
Oh my gosh, the wind and the solar is so cheap,
it's practically free.
The part that they never told anybody back then,
and even though we were discussing on the program
with various people and folks that knew about this
is that every bit of renewable power has to have 100%
backup by something else. Usually a natural gas peaker plant or hydropower if
you're allowed to do that. But remember hydro is evil power and not considered
renewable for portfolios, the energy portfolios. Yeah, everything's about
intermittent and chaotic. Unless you're a data center, and then data centers for some reason have an interesting
thing, have an interesting privilege.
Data centers, you have to keep them going all the time.
You brownouts for us.
Brownouts for us and steady power for Facebook, I guess.
I guess that's how this ends up working there.
Yeah, that's why I was only half joking that maybe we could all be declared data centers
and this way we get better and cheaper power, that kind of thing.
But in all seriousness, you're looking at a decarbonization.
Also part of the cost of the power going up, honestly though, is dealing with wildfire
mitigation costs
and hardening of the grid and trying to keep them from... yeah I know this is
something they should have been doing for a long long time but remember a
Public Utility Commission ended up forcing Pacific Power and PG&E and other
utilities then. Their deal was about getting to renewable, not setting
the forest on fire. Because it costs money to do that.
It costs money to go out and get those, not macerators,
what do they call them, masticators?
I think it's masticators is the, you know, the chewers,
those big chewing machines that go there
and just chew all the weeds and the trees,
the scrap trees out there to the ground.
So they were doing up on a nugget butte over the winter.
And I'll tell you, it's amazing that cost money, though.
And that's also part of the bill going up. All right.

739, belly up to the talk, talk bar partner.
Here we go.
Let me talk with Scott Miller.
Scott Miller, I talked to Scott Miller, I want to say, Scott, wasn't it, what, four
years ago you said it was November of 2021 when I last talked to you and you had lost
your license to practice, right?
In Washington State, right? That's correct.
All right. And I kind of lost track of you after that. And this was during COVID.
This had to do with all the COVID mandates and everything like that. That
was what was happening to you back then at that time, if I recall. Correct, yes.
I was treating COVID patients outpatient and getting people
out of the hospitals, but I was also writing masks and vaccines. I don't call
it a vaccine, but COVID shot exemptions. I was basically doing everything that
the State Department of Health considered reckless and dangerous.
And this was in rural Washington where you were living at that time, correct? State Department of Health considered reckless and dangerous.
And this was in rural Washington where you were living at that time, correct?
Yeah, we were in Southwest, actually just over the river from Portland in a small town.
Okay, all right.
You've written a book about your experiences and I think it is well worth hearing and reminding
ourselves of just how low we got back in those days.
And I don't even know if we've really recovered from it since.
It's called the most dangerous man in Washington.
Where'd you come up with that name?
Was it about the way the medical board tended to look at you?
Well, that's what I was called.
They said that I was the substantive evil and that was what they called me.
I thought, man, that takes a lot to earn a shot in the panicker.
When I was thinking about the title, it was just a word that kept coming up.
My staff would joke, they're like, you don't look that dangerous.
I know, right?
The things that were written about me by the state, the attorney general, the AAG, that
was the phrase that kept coming up that I was the most dangerous man and I needed to...
They held a separate emergency medical hearing.
The Washington Medical Commission held a separate emergency hearing to change the language in
the WMCs, their kind of statement on how providers are supposed to act.
And because I was speaking out so much, they literally put in clauses in there for the
misinformation and disinformation so they could come after me.
Ah, misinformation and disinformation.
In other words, a difference of opinion with the centralized control
and command of the medical system. Isn't that really what we're talking about?
Exactly. Anything that's outside of what they call quote-unquote
consensus medicine. So if you say anything that is not considered consensus,
which they have determined and documented, they will come after you.
And it's still, that's still the state that we're in.
Well, I'm no longer in Washington, but that's still their practice, from what I understand.
They still can't speak out.
You know, consensus medicine would be, you know, if you were to go back into the medieval
times then, if you as a physician's assistant or pediatric physician's assistant, which
is what you were in Washington state at that time, if you were to say, you know, I don't think
that that bleeding people is necessarily the, you know, the best way to actually
cure people of this particular disease or you would say something if they had
all the sudden silence, the consensus says the bleeding must be done, right? Get out
the barber pole. It really hasn't
changed much, really, when it comes to that tribalism.
Or how crazy it is to wash your hands before a surgery, right? That was
unheard of, like, why would you do that? Yeah, the metric hasn't changed.
In the state of Washington, I was interviewed a few days ago. They were
asking me specifically what it's
like for providers still in Washington. I'll give you an example. So I have a hearing coming
up in Alaska. I applied for a license. It was denied, but I was able to appeal it. Yay.
And I beat the state's motion to dismiss my case, the administrative judge sided with me.
Um, I can't get a provider in the state of Washington to be, uh, in any type of
witness on my behalf, because if they do, the words they would say would be deemed
misinformation or disinformation and they would come after them.
Take us back then to 2021.
And the reason I wanted to talk with you about it is
that it's important to hear your story again and remember.
And I think that, you know,
our heads are back in the sand, you know, once again,
and centralized command and control of the medical system
is still a canker sore on medicine.
There's very little practicing of medicine,
in my opinion, that's going on,
especially in the hospital systems.
It's almost the practicing of protocols,
which is once again, consensus medicine.
So tell me what happened back in 2021, remind people.
Well, so the HHS, Health and Human Services,
basically flipped the switch and it changed what you
just said.
It changed doctors in the hospital from being able to practice medicine to blindly following
a checklist.
And I did hundreds of hospital rescue calls and I heard the same thing in every hospital
in every state across the country.
It was like when you watch the news and they just regurgitate the same talking
point, every single doctor, except for one in a rural hospital in Northern
California, use the use the term, well, that's not part of our protocol.
Well, that's not on the checklist.
It's not on the checklist.
It's not whether or not it could work.
It's if it's on the checklist, It's group think, in other words.
Correct.
And so, initially, I tried to use logic and reason and facts and science to get them to
move the needle and add different therapies in, and I couldn't do it.
What were you doing in Washington?
What kind of different therapies were you working as a pediatric physician's assistant
at that time?
What were you doing that got you sideways with him again?
Well at that point the kids were pretty much unaffected and if they got sick, they're really easy to treat
so I was taking care of all of the
Moms dads and grandparents who are left without care because oh there was no treatment, right?
That was there's nothing you can do
You just go home until you get too sick or you just you know
Wade through the muck and the problem that, and this is why I was
speaking out so aggressively, was the case for early treatment. Because
it's still, it was a bio-weapon that was specifically designed in a very elegant,
dangerous way to hurt us. Whether we had a mild case, moderate case, severe
case, it's still a spike protein that
binds to and damages our cells and so we want to make it go away as quickly as possible.
And so I was aggressive with things like ivermectin, colchicine, nebulizing, budesonide.
I had everyone nebulizing budecinide and saline. I had them on allergy meds because of the histamine response from it's activated with
spike protein, things like Montelucast which we use for asthma allergies.
The turnaround for these people was especially if they weren't in acute respiratory failure,
the turnaround was so rapid.
After 10, 15 treatments for patients, I'm like, this is incredible.
This was early 2020.
And so after I had treated 500 and then 1,000, at that point, I'm like, okay, maybe I'm not
wrong.
This might be effective.
Well, I see you weren't practicing protocol,
you weren't using the protocol, you found using medical training, you
found alternatives that worked though. And shouldn't that have been
what mattered in the medical world? What worked? Well, the problem, and I
spoke with quite a few intensivists, like critical care pulmonologists and intensivists, and just trying to get their mindset, because I would say, well, listen,
we know what the inflammatory, we know what that pro-inflammatory storm is. We know the
inflammatory mediators that are causing it. And they call that, that's what they call the
cytokine storm, right? The cytokine storm, correct. And we know things that can mitigate it, that can make it go away or significantly reduce
the negative impact.
And across the board, they would say this, well, we know that there just aren't enough
studies.
That was the ubiquitous phrase, there just aren't enough studies.
And I wrote about several, because people, unless you went through it, you
can't wrap your mind around it. So I shared some stories in book one
about very, very specific situations, conversations that I had with the
doctors. And anytime family were on the phone with me, when we would hang up,
we would continue our call and they would say, Scott, I don't understand.
Well, why won't they do anything? And I would say, I don't know. And so we would, you know, continue our call and they would say, Scott, I don't understand. Well, why won't they do anything? And I would say, I don't know. And so we would have to just
find a way to surreptitiously take over their care. And when we did, they all left. Like we got
hundreds of people out of the hospital that were told they were going to be put on a ventilator.
But that was... And getting put on our ventilator, wasn't that almost a death sentence for many?
And getting put on our ventilator, wasn't that almost a death sentence for many?
In our local hospitals in Vancouver, there is about a five to seven percent survival rate.
I'll give you an example. By the way, I'm talking with Scott Miller. Scott Miller is author of The Most Dangerous Man in Washington, back when he was a pediatric physician's assistant, and they were
going off the protocol
and saving people during COVID.
I think it's important to remember people like Scott,
people that were stepping outside.
Many have paid a really intense price.
By the way, you had to leave Washington
because they killed your career there.
And so you went to Texas.
Were you treated differently in Texas or not?
Well, yeah, they don't know me here.
So it's a little different.
But yeah, it got to a point after I lost my medical practice.
We lost everything.
And I transitioned.
I ended up doing a bunch of integrative health practitioner
certifications.
And so I was doing, you
know, consulting, health coaching and then they came after me for that. Even
though I sent in my certificates to the Washington Medical Commission, I told
them what I was doing, my attorneys let them know, they just, they came after me
actually harder during during 2022 and 2023 and it got to a point where our attorneys called
and Shelley and I get on the phone and they they basically said you have to
leave you have to move don't tell anyone go dark they're gonna put in they're
gonna put me in jail Scott the point is that they're gonna put you in jail put
you in jail for what for saving people's I mean, what is the goal of having a medical
license? I don't know anymore. I mean, the goal is to be able to have autonomy to care for your
patients and community in a kind, safe, loving fashion and use your skill set to help heal people.
But obviously we know that's not where medicine is because it's solely driven by pharmaceutical
money.
And of course, pharmaceutical money buys a lot of influence within Congress that ends
up dealing with the rules, right, the administrative
rules that then filter down to the state. I remember in the state of Oregon when I had a
prescription for ivermectin, you know, the pill form of ivermectin, and then it got to the point
where I had a prescription but no one would fill it because the Oregon pharmacy board said,
oh no, we're not going to do this, know safe and effective go get the go get the COVID
Shot, it's what they did. I remember this well and
Well in interest of go ahead. Yeah, and what we ended up doing what a lot of people in Southern Oregon we ended up starting
It was almost an let me put it this way
People I've known and other people,
we started kind of an Ivermectin Underground Railway to this area.
And what it was is that we would read alternative places from like FLCCC.net and the financial person and Barnhart had a great page on how to use ivermectin.
And it was just getting the injectable, the liquid injectable and dosing it out.
And I know that my wife Linda, I never got COVID, I never had COVID, but my wife Linda
got it at one point.
And in just a few hours, she thought she was going to die, right? And they weren't going to do anything for her at the hospital. She took it and then
within five hours, she had drastically improved. And yeah, she felt miserable for a week or two,
but she did okay out of this. And it was cheap. It was cheap, Scott. There are many other people I knew that did the same
thing. We were having to do it behind the scenes because the medical system wasn't going to do it
for you. Just kind of what you're talking about, right? It wasn't just the pharmacy board. I ended
up talking with a pharmacist that I've worked with for the last five years. And Safeway, Rite Aid, Costco, you know, Walmart, Target, CBS,
etc. It was those corporations that they were getting, the pharmacists were
getting memos from corporate to refuse dispensing.
Yeah, it's a nice pharmaceutical license you have here.
It'd be a shame if something happened to it, right?
That's essentially what was going on, Scott.
And we had a few.
There were a few pharmacists at the blockchain,
at these blockchain pharmacies that would dispense it.
It was comical.
We had their schedules.
We had a big board, and we had pharmac pharmacist schedules, what pharmacies they worked at.
We would call and check what their schedules were for the week.
We had so many new patients every single day.
There were days where we did 25, 30 new acutely ill patients.
We would end up bombing these different pharmacists and it got to
be a problem for them. And so it literally got to a point where the only way to do it
was I ended up buying the equivalent of a small pharmacy. So I bought thousands of doses
of ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine and poulticein, etc. And I had a bunch of volunteer nurses
that would come in. We'd get them packaged up and then I met with a bunch of local business leaders and
pastors of local churches and we created, I called it pods.
So we created pods in the East Gorge all the way through Vancouver and up through the North
and we would get these packages of meds to say like
15 families in a church and all the vitamins and supplements.
And so it was this mass community like you were talking about, it was this mass underground.
So anybody that got sick in a church, you know, a church family, they would let the
pastor know.
I would get a message or my office would get a message with all of the names and then we
would be able to
And we took me and we took health history, etc. It wasn't super rogue and then we were able to get everybody
The therapies they needed by bypassing the pharmacies if need be
And my question for you Scott and Scott Miller once again telling his story is the author of the most dangerous man in Washington
This was Washington State at that time.
Has there been true reform in our medical system right now to keep the big lie from
being used against the people again, which is what happened in COVID?
No, absolutely not.
The only thing that's, the only real thing that's changed is that
you can, you're able to go into the hospital and be with a loved one. So if somebody's
sick, you can go in there and be an advocate for them. That's really the only thing that's
changed. I still, I still get, I get bombed all the time from people across the country asking for help. And it's like Groundhog
State. We're in the middle of 2025, and the conversations I have with doctors isn't much
different. Why is that? Why is it no different in 2025 with what we know now with the bloodthirsty
protocols of 2020, 2021 and beyond, why hasn't those conversations changed?
I think a lot, and there's a lot of reasons, but if you think about, let's say, all of the new
positions in training, you know, that were in 2020, 2021, 2022, what were they taught?
This was, I was a preceptor, I had students with me all the time.
I would ask them, what is your school?
What are your instructors telling you about COVID or about treatment?
They're like, well, nothing.
The vaccine is everybody needs to get vaccinated.
That's what was being taught.
If you don't hear anything different and these are people you trust and then you get into say a hospital system, you're immediately indoctrinated into it.
So you're a newbie that's in the hospital and you're looking up to these seasoned doctors
that you revere and they're telling you the same thing.
You're not going to be like, I don't know, they're chiefs.
You just be like, okay, this is what we do.
There's no, there's almost no, like, so when I would explain a rationale for
something as simple as nebulizing, it was like pulling teeth to do something that
pre-COVID, they would have done without thought or to put them on, you know, high
dose steroids to get the, the cytokine storm.
Yeah, get the inflammation down. Sure. Yeah. Yeah, they wouldn't do it. If somebody came
in with asthma, they'd put them on like 125 milligrams of sodium edryl. If they
were in acute respiratory failure, they would keep them off fluids. They wouldn't
nebulize anything. They'd put them on remdesivir, kill their kidneys, and then
sedate them. I mean it's just and that's still happening
every day in hospitals across our country. They're still giving remdesivir and I know
there were even nurses here in southern Oregon hospital systems they would tell me that they
nicknamed it run death is near. Yeah in fact the expert, the medical, the state of Washington, Washington state's
expert witness for the medical commission in 2023, end of 2023 during Dr. Ryan Cole's hearing,
stated that remdesivir is still the gold standard of care and that they're looking at using it in an outpatient setting
for people.
That was the...
Okay.
What is going on here with this then?
Is the practice of medicine, the allopathic physician, is that whole allopathic system
just broken or compromised or both or...
Completely compromised.
Totally compromised.
Completely compromised.
Where would you, now given that you're out of it apparently right now,
how do you reform this?
I mean is RFK Jr. on the right track on some of this or what are you thinking about this?
track on some of this or what are you thinking about this? There's, I mean, he's on the right track in terms of a mindset, the things that he's
said to us, but trying to change that kind of system that's so ingrained when the American
Medical Association, when the American Academy of Pediatrics recommends a COVID vaccine
for six-month-olds.
That's insane.
It's criminal.
It's insane and it's criminal.
Yet, that's the CDC even taking it off of the basically as a must give if you're a pediatrician and you kind of have to give it or you're
going to get in a lot of trouble.
I was a single owner, a single provider, so I could do whatever I wanted.
I got to use my conscience.
But if you're in a group or a hospital setting, you have to do it.
But they think it's good.
They literally think this is how you protect your children,
your babies and the parents and grandparents.
They literally think that.
Like they don't think it's, they think it's as,
it was the saving grace, not realizing that.
I'll give you an example in 2020.
By the end of 2020, there were 300,000 deaths.
And I call it due to complete and utter nihilism of science and lack of care.
So 300,000, say 20,000 deaths.
In 2021, after the rollout of the shots, throughout 2021, there were just over a million deaths.
So at a time when a vaccine is made available and 70% of
Americans get a vaccine, we have more than triple the amount of deaths than we
did prior to the vaccine. And by the way, as you went further into it, the virus
was less impactful. It's always, you know, it's always worse in the early part of
it, right? The actual infectiousness or the damage, you know, done by it.
Am I right about that?
Figure that out?
Typically, by late summer of 2020, it was, if you go back and remember, they stopped
on CNN and MSNBC, etc.
They had had the death toll. That ticker stopped and they switched MSNBC, etc. They'd have the death toll.
That ticker stopped and they switched to new cases.
Yeah.
So it went from deaths to new cases.
And it was brilliant.
And I pushed back against the PCR test
because they were cycling it so many times.
And even Dr. Fauci, I don't even like calling him,
even Fauci said anything cycled over say 34 times, meaning how many times you have to cycle it to try and find some organisms.
Yeah.
In other words, it's trying to amplify the sample in order to make the sample louder
in order to find the virus, the COVID virus at that time.
Yeah.
Or, you know, I used it for bacteria. I did that all
the time for years before COVID for bacteria, you know, doing bacterial cultures. And, and so really
anything over 30 is, is nothing. Um, and so I've got really involved in this, especially because it
affected our school. So they were, they were swabbing all these kids and they were coming up
positive, even though they were asymptomatic.
And that's what they came up with that new word asymptomatic.
Yeah, in other words, they were perfectly healthy and their immune system was dealing with it, right?
That's honestly what was going on.
They didn't even have COVID. The cycle counts were...
So we would call in because they never gave the cycle count.
It just said it was qualitative or it just said positive.
I'm like, I don't know what positive means.
How many times was it cycled?
And we would get the cycle counts.
It'd be like 37, 38, 35.
And I'd call the parents and I'm like, you're good.
Your kids don't have COVID.
It was a false positive.
But that's what they used to control how schools were able to let kids back in.
It was what they were using.
I mean, the money that these schools were getting in Vancouver, like 63 million dollars for
like Evergreen School District and you know, 59, I mean, we're talking shocking
amounts of money that these school districts were getting. Scott, you know, I
could probably talk to you another hour on this one, but I have limited time in
the moment then. Why is it important that people learn more about your story, about what's going on here?
Because from the sounds of it, there really hasn't been reform yet in our medical system,
in the United States medical system overall.
No.
And I think as you were mentioning, it's up to us.
I will say this, I was doing a book signing and a talk actually
out in Washington a month and a half ago. And even people that were close to me that
knew some of the things I was doing, they'd read the book and they're like, I had no
idea this was going on. And people still doubt. And so I think in the book it's one of
those things it was just my true account of the things that I experienced the
challenges that we had, the impact that it had on my community, on my clinic,
on my staff, on our family and again if you didn't if you never had somebody
that went into the hospital you you would think, ah, it
couldn't have been that bad.
It was that bad and worse.
Again, I think, A, there's a bunch of information in there.
If you get, not just COVID, but if you get COVID, influenza, RSV.
I go through the protocols I used to make RSV.
We talk about that a lot.
It's super easy to make go away. My son got RSV and his symptoms were gone in about
two hours versus five to seven days of being really sick and if that was
an elderly, they could possibly be hospitalized because there's technically
no treatment for it, really easy to treat. But a few reasons. I've been told it's a really interesting
read. It's a good read. There's a lot of, I think, life-saving information in it for people,
generally speaking. And, you know, it helps support me to be able to continue doing
my mission and helping people.
What are you doing now?
What's next?
I mean, are you still in the practice of medicine in any form or not?
Not the practice of medicine, no.
I consult.
So like today, I get calls from people in groups all over the country asking if I will
consult and intervene or help intervene and
families who
Because of what happened in Washington you can't get really a medical license at this point because of what happened, right?
That seems to be the case. So I do have a hearing in Alaska
and it's it's a long shot, but the fact that I'm
I'm the first person I I think, period ever to
have had a...
They had a permanent revocation of my license that they did without me knowing it.
But so you technically can't, but I was able to...
It's like God put the right administrative judge in my path.
And so we'll see. It's a long
shot but I'm going, you know, we're starting more of a, we'll call it natural. I mean
there's so many therapies that nobody talks about that are unbelievably beneficial at
helping get to root cause of, I call it, disease. And so we're
looking at doing another wellness facility in Texas. Because they, you know,
they don't know to come after me. So I think we're safe doing that.
Okay, well, all right. We think we're safe and they can't come after me. That's
kind of chilling in its own place.
I'm talking with Scott Miller.
He's the author of The Most Dangerous Man in Washington.
Carl, are you even trying back?
Do you want to talk to Scott, ask him a question?
Go ahead.
Yeah, this is John.
Yeah, John.
Have you had any relationship with Simone Gold
and Gold Care?
You'd fit right in with, they have a whole team of people
that are basically staying the same thing that you do and they have thousands of
people now enrolled in Gold Care. I'm familiar with it. She actually reached
out to me in 2021, but I haven't. Again, thank you for bringing that up. I mean, I have... I'm directly involved
with her and them. And if you say it's okay for Bill to give me your phone number after
you're off the air, I'll call you and give you her cell number.
That would be fantastic. Thank you so much.
All right. Hey, John, appreciate the call. And Scott, I appreciate you sharing some of the story here.
And I know that so much of our world is, hey, forget about what happened then, short attention
span theater, off we go, you know, onto the next outrage or something like that.
But what happened to doctors and physicians assistants and nurses and everybody that questioned what was going on, which was obviously wrong,
obviously wrong and openly harmful in many cases. This has to be dealt with and we have to remind
ourselves of this and I don't know what the reform process comes from, but perhaps a rising sense of
outrage could help, I guess. All right, Scott, how can people get a copy of Most Dangerous Man in
Washington? Where'd they go? Right now, it's on Amazon. Currently, that's the only place right
now. So, yeah, and if they're not sure, I looked at some of the reviews and people really enjoy it.
And again, it's a pretty fascinating story. I call it an impossible story because it got to a point where it was literally only through
literal divine guidance and intervention over and over that we were able to care for the
people we did.
And so it's more of a faith journey of going through the fire, fire after fire after fire, and
seeing how God was able to guide and lead us in caring for people.
Scott Miller, thanks for being on the show.
Be well.
I appreciate your time.
All right.
This is KMED, KMED, HD One, Eagle Point, Medford, KPXG, Grants Pass.
Pretty thought-provoking guy there.
Hi, I'm Rob.
And I'm Debra.
And this is our TimberTech story.
Just dropped by this morning.
