Episode 38 - The Polio Vaccine - A Shot In the Dark Part 12

So this one took some time to produce. It's been  3 weeks since our last episode, but this was a lot of effort. Candace gets a lot of things wrong about Polio and spends way too much time retreading an old and debunked claim about Polio and DDT.

Episode 37 - The Flu Shot - A Shot In the Dark Part 11

This is the final episode of Candace's Daily Wire-produced part of A Shot In the Dark. We go through it all of course, and there is at least one surprising production gaffe from her team in the episode, and may be why there are no links provided by Candace for this one. So all of the links in the Link Stack are from Thomas Anderson's research.
