    658. Why Globalist Elites Want You to Be Cold & Poor
    Jun 1 2026
    The elites running our energy system are counting on you not understanding it - here is why: In this explosive conversation, energy expert Kathryn Porter joins Andrew Gold to expose the dark reality behind Net Zero policies and the looming collapse of the Western energy grid. From the "sinister" normalization of energy blackouts to the luxury beliefs of the Davos elite, Porter breaks down why the path we are on has consequences that are genuinely scary.

Is Net Zero the new religion? And why is the Scottish grid on the verge of a total shutdown? If you've ever felt that something "doesn't pass the smell test" regarding global energy policy, this video is a must-watch. Key Topics Covered: - The "Spanish Inquisition" of Net Zero and the suppression of free speech. - Why renewables aren’t as "cheap" as you’ve been told. - The catastrophic risk of regular blackouts across Europe and the UK. - How "woke" energy policies led to the economic collapse of Sri Lanka. - The case for nuclear energy as the only viable, reliable alternative. #NetZero #EnergyCrisis #AndrewGold #ClimateChange #Globalism #Blackouts #UKPolitics #NuclearEnergy #FreeSpeech #Economics Join the 30k heretics on my mailing list: https://andrewgoldheretics.com Check out my new documentary channel: https://youtube.com/@andrewgoldinvestigates Andrew on X: https://twitter.com/andrewgold_ok Insta: https://www.instagram.com/andrewgold_ok Heretics YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@andrewgoldheretics Chapters: 0:00 - The Scary Truth They Don’t Want You to Know 2:30 - The Hidden Death Toll of Energy Policy 3:15 - Is Net Zero a New "Cultish" Religion? 5:40 - The Failed Predictions the Media Ignores 8:05 - Why Climate Policy is Harming the Poor 10:45 - The "Spanish Inquisition" of Modern Science 13:00 - The Looming Blackout Disaster in Europe 16:10 - Why the Grid is More Fragile Than Ever 25:30 - The "Luxury Belief" Destroying Nations 27:15 - The Sri Lanka Warning: Total Economic Collapse 28:00 - The Secret Link Between Oil and Your Medicine 32:45 - The Elites' Plan to Control Your Speech 46:10 - Is Ed Miliband "Deep in the Ideology"? 56:15 - Why Scotland's Grid is Set to Stop Working 1:04:20 - The Case for Nuclear: The Solution We’re Ignoring 1:08:15 - A Dystopian Future or a Path to Growth?

    What if the person sitting across from you - your boss, your partner, or even your political leader - felt absolutely nothing? In this episode of Heretics, I sit down with a self-admitted, diagnosed psychopath who reveals the disturbing reality of living without empathy.

Utterly addicted. Imagine a great journalist like Louis Theroux being able to day what he ACTUALLY thinks! Andrew Gold is just brilliant! Bring an open mind.

Great content, fascinating guests, incredibly well presented.

Andrew is a wonderful journalist with a real skill for talking to people about awkward and uneasy subjects. You might not agree with everything he has to say but I think he is very respectful of others with differing viewpoints and he has a way of explaining thoughts and ideas in a non-confrontational way. I wish all discussions could be like this. Expect to have your ideas challenged, your passions inflamed and your feathers ruffled with nuanced and open conversations.

Great Podcast and YouTube show
