The Megyn Kelly Show

I write a little about a little bit and Only the Strong about how the media has become essentially the press adjunct of the Democratic Party and the progressive left in America.

I explained in Only the Strong, that's actually what the American left has done for a long time, whether it's communist in China now or communist in Russia during the Cold War.

As you laid out, as I explained in Only the Strong, there's something that I call the China lobby in America that tries to suppress all these facts.

As I say, and only as strong, Trump immediately approved the strike. But he also said correctly, next time you don't have to call me.

I talk a little bit about this in Only the Strong, that they put power above all else.

One time when I was in second grade, I wrote about this in my book, I was looking forward to bringing home the class bear, Clancy.

John is back now and on fire with a very funny and candid book called Delete That and other failed attempts to look good online.

And to celebrate it, I read a story by David Sedaris called Big Boy about a giant turd that he couldn't get down the toilet.

and I'll walk you through what they are when we are joined in just a bit by bestselling author and wellness expert, Darin Olien, to discuss superfoods and the five fixes that will jumpstart your health for good.

Our next guest is here to help us do just that. Darren Olean is a wellness expert and the bestselling author of Super Life, the five simple fixes that will make you healthy, fit and eternally awesome.

And the reason I chose the title Super Life was informed by that little kid that was struggling to survive at a 50 50 chance of living.

It's almost like people don't want to hear the simple, powerful messages of that that wand that they have is is their choices and their choices are many choices added up over time create extraordinary benefit.

It is not a rocket science kind of thing.

And I was just, I just saw him and you can buy sprouting seeds. Broccoli is great because it's got sulfurophane. Uh, it's got other compounds in there, anti-cancer antioxidants, micronutrients, but you can put, let's say just to be very pragmatic, you could put two tablespoons of seeds in there, rinse it, soak it, and then drain it.

And now all of a sudden you have a salad for a few cents in, in about five days. So you've got some of the most nutrient broccoli sprouts are infinitely more nutrient dense than a full mature broccoli.

they wrote an amazing book called Mastering Diabetes and they're proving through the science and through getting thousands of people off of, uh, diabetic medications, eating high carbohydrate food, not ultra processed.

Dr. Arthur C. Uh, Guyton author of the respected textbook of medical physiology. Put it like this. All chronic pain, suffering, and diseases are caused from a lack of oxygen at the cell level.

there's a great book. Um, I don't remember the title, Dr. Jerry tenant, um, the body's electric or something like that, where he measured the millivolts go up when the body goes into a healing response.

I talk a lot about the phenomenon of crime concentration, right? I mean, crime is not a problem that's evenly distributed around the United States.

I think the answer to that is a function of where crime concentrates. The vast majority of Americans live in places that are as safe as the safest places in the world.

And now I think we're starting to have to grapple with the reality that maybe it wasn't such a good idea to systematically lower the transaction costs of committing a crime, and to systematically raise the transaction costs of enforcing the law.

The idea that policing is an institution built on and built for the oppression of low income minority communities is just incongruous with the reality of policing, which is that police officers are being disproportionately deployed to areas with the largest crime problems, which tend to have disproportionately black and Latino populations.

Ask any police chief in the country, what is it that you want to do? How do you define success? And they say, I want to keep crime under control. I want to get crime down. That's how I define my success.

And I'm thinking now, like Elijah Anderson's 1992 book, I want to say, Code of the Street, where he embedded himself in North Philadelphia and sort of identified the prevailing social mores.

She's leaving the Democratic Party. I don't know if we have this on camera, but she says she's done with them, that they're a bunch of basic grifters.

There was a report out, you know, there's a British author named Valentin Roy, I think it is. And he just released a book in the UK called, good, low, Valentin Low, called Cordieres. And it's about the royal family and her.

He has written the book. It's called Revenge on Meghan and Harry.

20 years ago, I was fortunate to be given a short book called Time Shifting by Stefan Reichschafen. I hope I said that right and said this book has helped to change my life by slowing time figuratively, of course, and goes on from there.

Have you ever read either of those books?

I read mere Christianity after Spencer Claven came on and was singing its praises. It's amazing.

It was, it was life-changing. I learned so much. And of course, his writing is just spectacular anyway.

Oh, it is so good. Um, he's so clear and that's one of the things I love to, he takes complex ideas and he, he can make them completely accessible to a normal human being like us.

And, um, so CS Lewis talks about this and he says, okay, well, based on what we know about God and based on what we know about sin is okay. So my definition of sin is always okay. It's never an accident because I can't sin accidentally.

There was a guy named Cardinal Ratzinger, AKA Pope Benedict the 16th, who wrote a book called Jesus of Nazareth, where he says, I mean, he respects this rabbi a lot.

So that was a term of Baltimore Catechism was a book that came out of Baltimore in the early 1900s where they took the teachings from council of Trent and made them more accessible so that you could teach from it.

I co-wrote a book with a black author called The Business Secrets of Drug Dealing.

Right. You are correct. It is a book. And it is yeah. So it is a summary of what we believe as Catholics.

So there've been a number of catechisms over the course of the last 2000 years. The most recent one was actually the big, this is the most recent universal catechism.

The one previous was the catechism with the council of Trent.

But this one came out, I think in 1991, 1992, somewhere in there. And it's beautiful, but it's a summary of all the Catholics believe.

And it is dense and the Bible was so easy in comparison because the Bible is a story and yes, there's all the names and yes, there's some of the things like, wait, what's going on here in this kind of situation? Trying to make sense of things.

The catechism is not a story.

The catechism is, here's what we believe about that, that, that, that going down the line. Right?

So you're, you're, you live in it up.

I hope so.

But it's, it's, it's been a learning process for me because again, the, with the Bible, I'm like, well, especially if you, um, the first few episodes of the Bible are, you know, the first couple of chapters of Genesis and Job, which are things that I have been reading and praying about for years and years and years with the catechism.

The first couple of paragraphs, a couple of days are like, oh, here's the introduction to the catechism, which I'm like, okay, uh, awesome.

I'm just hoping that people stick around until like day 20. Cause that, by that point we're like, then we take off and then it gets really, really good.

But unlike the Bible, it, it's a little bit to warm up to.
