The Highwire with Del Bigtree

Broadcasting LIVE from Italy during his European screening tour for “An Inconvenient Study,” Del investigates the country that became the global symbol of COVID fear and lockdowns.

We also break down the latest attacks on MAHA, Del’s public disagreement with RFK Jr. over the PREP Act, new nature-based immune therapies for cancer, and the ongoing fluoride battle.

Guests: Prof. Alberto Contri, Dr. Mariano Amici, Dr. Rosanna Negri, Raffaella Regoli, Giovanni Trambusti, Dr. Pietro Gasparoni, Dr. Giuseppe Barbaro, Dr. Alberto Donzelli
