I wonder why we're experiencing this new type of "censorship", from one of the early inventors of mRNA vaccines.

BTW Still possible to listen here: https://podcasts.google.com/feed/aHR0cHM6Ly9wb2RmYXJtLnh5ei9...

Just got back, but video now disappeared.
Can you please explain what was and was not censored here? I think I am missing something.
This guy seems to be getting paraded lately by the Grift
Let's hope that podcasts once again move off of Spotify and get their proper RSS feeds back.

There's a lot of stuff I can't listen to anymore. I'm not installing Spotify.

Malone is not generally recognized as the "inventor of mRNA vaccines" (contrary to his claims). However, he is a pioneer in the field [1], and not just a random crackpot.

I am unsure of how much value his comments are adding right now. I haven't listened to them, and I don't have the expertise to tell. But I think he (like everyone else) should be allowed to speak his mind.

I am not gonna suppress my knee-jerk reaction of not liking people who want to shut others up. This is not an isolated instance. Spotify has censored at least 40 other JRE episodes. [2] That is egregiously paternalistic. There is no way I am ever going to resubscribe to Spotify.
