Episode's summary
In the Cornell 7 lawsuit, a female student has accused seven Chi Phi fraternity brothers of drugging and sexually assaulting her in October 2024. The men have denied wrongdoing, saying the encounter was consensual. One of the men now alleges that because he was intoxicated on ketamine at the time, he was unable to give consent – and thus legally, Jane Doe may have assaulted him. The NY Post reports that Matthew Ingalls “told Cornell University police that he was the one too intoxicated from booze and ketamine to consent” and Jane Doe “was the one who therefore assaulted him during the debauched and drunken night and not the other way around…” Attorney Viva Frei joins Dr. Drew to separate what is illegal and prosecutable from what is immoral, and to explain why the district attorney first declined to bring charges.

Pneumonic Plague In Russia: Researcher Dies After Breaking Test Tube, ~200 Now Quarantined – Ask Dr. Drew – Ep 673
ListenedA 28-year-old researcher died from a “pneumonia of undetermined origin” after breaking a test tube in a Russian anti-plague lab. Nearly 200 people are now in quarantine over fears of a pneumonic plague outbreak in the Siberia region. Untreated pneumonic plague has nearly 100% fatality. The White House is monitoring the situation. But even the World Health Organization says, based on the current information, “the public health risk to the general population appears to be low.” Is this simply another round of media pandemic panic – and will they vanish from the headlines as quickly as cyclospora, measles, bird flu, and monkeypox? Steve Kirsch breaks through the press-induced anxiety over minor biological threats, analyzes Florida’s landmark consumer protection lawsuit against pharmaceutical companies, and reveals new research on blood-brain barrier permeability. James Lindsay examines the escalating riots tearing through France, the tactics of revolutionary political movements, and why Western legal systems…
New Fauci Diary Leak: Ebola Was Secretly Aerosolized In 2016 Army Experiments, 50x More Lethal Than COVID – Ask Dr. Drew – Ep 672
ListenedNewly released diary entries and internal emails obtained by Sen. Rand Paul reveal that Dr. Anthony Fauci privately sounded the alarm in 2016 after learning the U.S. Army Medical Research Institute of Infectious Diseases (USAMRIID) had aerosolized Ebola in a study funded by his own institute. “What idiots,” Dr. Fauci wrote in March 2016. “This should have been a classified experiment, that never should have been done in the first place.” The documents reveal that vaccinated primates exposed to the airborne pathogen suffered severe lung inflammation – with worse outcomes than the unvaccinated. “During the course of those experiments, the DOD noticed that the animals that were vaccinated had more inflammation [in the lungs than] those who were unvaccinated,” Fauci wrote in his diary at the time. “Nonetheless, the idea that the vaccine can do harm is now causing people a great deal of concern.” “Records show NIAID was funding risky research with the Defense Department. And when the results turned problematic,…
Ole Miss Student Deaths: Shop Warns Undercover Cops “People Were Dying” From Their Smax Pseudo-DHM Kratom Pills – Ask Dr. Drew – Ep 671
ListenedTwo Ole Miss students, Aidan Hamilton, 18, and Robert Strang, 20, were found dead on the same day. New police documents link both to “Smax” Pseudo-DHM, a “high-potency MGM-15 product” chewable sold as kratom by a smoke shop. Before being raided, the shop’s staff reportedly told undercover cops not to take the pills because “people were dying.” The American Kratom Association, a kratom advocacy group, says the product’s compounds “do not occur naturally in the kratom plant. They are synthetic derivatives or chemically manipulated forms of 7-OH.” When the news first broke of the college student deaths, Dr. Drew suspected the investigation would find multiple drugs were involved. This was later confirmed by reports revealing that Stang “took a Xanax bar the afternoon before he was found dead…. Investigators found 20 to 30 nitrous oxide cans and his roommates said Strang “would use whippets daily”.” World-renowned brain health expert and psychiatrist Dr. Daniel Amen joins Dr. Drew to break down what synthetic…
