00:00:30.000 tonight i tried ozempic trust me folks the cure is worse than the curse it's wednesday june 17th
00:00:48.280 2026 i'm david menzies and this is the ezra levent show 0.92
00:00:53.380 Shame on you, you sensorious bug.
00:01:08.240 Well, folks, just headline this monologue as my brief, bad, brutal experience with Ozempic. 0.79
00:01:16.200 Here's the backstory. About a decade ago, I was diagnosed with diabetes.
00:01:20.440 this meant lifestyle changes such as reading food labels for the first time you know it's shocking
00:01:27.500 to see that sugar is injected into almost everything do you know that ketchup is essentially
00:01:34.220 a liquefied donut when it comes to its sugar content crazy in any event over the years i did
00:01:42.260 make progress i got my blood sugar down no mean feat given that i remain cursed with a sweet tooth
00:01:48.720 and i did lose weight via dietary changes and exercise but when it comes to doctors progress
00:01:57.900 can't come fast enough it would seem and so it was that my doctor suggested i take that miracle
00:02:04.860 drug known as ozempic i know she meant well now the ostensible reason for ozempic is to get
00:02:12.760 diabetes under control, but I'd wager most people on the planet are taking Ozempic purely for weight
00:02:21.300 loss. In this regard, Ozempic really does work as an appetite killer. Once the injections started,
00:02:29.640 I would consume perhaps 25% of what I'd normally eat, and yet I would feel stuffed. I had heard
00:02:38.440 anecdotally that Ozempic kills one's desire for booze. In my experience, this proved 100% true.
00:02:46.740 While taking Ozempic, it was cold turkey time for me. I smiled thinking how much money I would deny
00:02:53.580 our government-run booze monopoly. But those smiles would later turn into grimaces. Here's
00:03:01.360 the bad news. In the two months I was on Ozempic, it felt less like I was taking a miracle drug
00:03:07.800 and more like I was being poisoned. I do not exaggerate. Simply put, I never felt more
00:03:16.160 miserable. The first side effect was horrendous stomach aches. Never have I consumed more Eno
00:03:24.580 in a failed attempt to bring tranquility back to my beleaguered belly. Sometimes for hours,
00:03:32.220 I would remain in the fetal position, moaning with pain. It was that bad. There was also this
00:03:39.100 constant feeling that I had to vomit. That was horrible too. And then there was the nausea.
00:03:46.260 I never get seasick, but from the descriptions of seasickness by those who suffer from it,
00:03:51.800 it seemed that I too was enduring seasickness, even though I never ventured out to sea.
00:03:58.520 i would later learn that these side effects are very common for users of ozempic and there are
00:04:06.720 other not so common side effects too this includes gallbladder problems kidney damage thyroid c cell
00:04:15.200 tumors and vision changes i would find out later that while ozempic is meant to attack fat it also
00:04:24.360 goes on the war path against muscle indeed up to 40 percent of weight loss can come from lean
00:04:32.720 muscle mass rather than fat i was not amused by this for there i was busting my butt in the gym
00:04:40.660 pumping iron while at the same time a drug inside of me was counteracting all this weightlifting
00:04:47.220 i mean give me a break already weightlifting is already becoming increasingly harder for me as
00:04:54.180 I age. I don't need my own body conspiring against me thanks to a nefarious foreign agent.
00:05:03.140 And another thing, I can tell you that while on Ozempic, I contracted tinnitus. The hearing in
00:05:11.280 my right ear is completely gone. Well, that's not completely true. It feels like a tuning fork has
00:05:18.980 been shoved into my ear. What few sounds are picked up sounds like shrill bird chirps. It is
00:05:25.800 absolutely maddening. And sadly, there is no cure for tinnitus. Now, to be clear, it's very possible
00:05:33.540 that contracting tinnitus was a coincidence. I am not saying there's a direct correlation between
00:05:41.220 ozempic and hearing loss but folks for me this is the crux of the matter namely what are the
00:05:49.240 long-term side effects of ozempic what research will be amassed in the years and even decades
00:05:56.580 down the road at this point we don't know do we given that ozempic is so relatively new
00:06:03.560 Then again, perhaps the mistake of taking Ozempic is on me.
00:06:09.720 Maybe I should have known better when it comes to the risks associated with taking a whiz-bang brand new drug.
00:06:18.660 After all, the single biggest reason I did not get the COVID-19 vaccine jab isn't necessarily because I'm anti-vaccine.
00:06:28.120 vaccine. Rather, it's because I am anti-experimental vaccine. After all, I'm a 1962 baby
00:06:37.840 who dodged a bullet. And the name of that bullet was thalidomide. Thalidomide dates back to the
00:06:46.080 late 1950s. It was supposed to be a medical miracle. Instead, it was a disaster. The drug 0.78
00:06:54.660 was meant to alleviate morning sickness in pregnant women. In that regard, thalidomide
00:07:01.480 worked brilliantly, but there was a steep price to be paid. Namely, more than 10,000 babies the
00:07:09.920 world over were born with severe birth defects. Perhaps the best written account regarding
00:07:17.440 thalidomide is Suffer the Children, the story of thalidomide, which was written by the Insight
00:07:24.560 team of the times of london published in 1979 it is a book that will sadden and enrage any reader
00:07:33.360 here is a snippet from the book's introduction quote the thalidomide babies whose births
00:07:40.160 shocked the world have grown up they were born almost 20 years ago with a terrible range of
00:07:46.660 deformities because the thalidomide sedative pill their mothers took during pregnancy
00:07:52.860 was not a wonder drug, but a cruel perverter of the growing body in the womb. The thalidomide
00:08:01.300 teenagers are coping with life as best anyone can when they lack arms or legs or suffer from
00:08:09.220 other serious deficiencies. In Britain, 19-year-old David Bickers, who has no legs and only rudimentary
00:08:17.740 digits where arms should be, studies mathematics and electronics and produces his own talking
00:08:25.120 magazine for the blind. Terry Wiles, who is barely two feet tall and has no arms or legs and only one
00:08:33.640 eye, writes and types his own short stories. Gary Skinner, who has short flippers where his arms
00:08:43.060 should be, works as a telephone switchboard operator in the local hospital. Something like
00:08:50.820 8,000 thalidomide children are alive in the United States, Germany, Japan, Britain, Ireland,
00:08:58.040 Sweden, Australia, Canada, Brazil, Italy, and Spain. Altogether, the pill known internationally
00:09:06.640 as thalidomide, claimed victims in 46 countries where it was prescribed by doctors and sold
00:09:15.360 across the counter under a variety of trade names on license from the original German inventors,
00:09:23.180 Chemie Gerthenel. Mothers who took the pill in the first trimester of pregnancy when limb buds
00:09:31.280 of the fetus form, produce children with a wide but distinctive range of deformities.
00:09:38.440 Some have no arms, just flippers from the shoulder. Some no legs, just toes from their hips.
00:09:45.040 Some have limbless trunks with just a head and a body. Some appear to be physically normal,
00:09:51.700 but were injured internally. Most of the children have a normal range of intelligence,
00:09:58.300 but a fewer vegetables some are deaf or blind or suffer from epilepsy and other manifestations of
00:10:06.860 severe brain damage they are all victims not merely of a drug accident but of the dangerous 0.54
00:10:15.080 myth invented in germany and exported to a credulous world that thalidomide was better 0.87
00:10:22.400 than all other tranquilizers because it was non-toxic, had no side effects, and was completely
00:10:30.300 safe for pregnant women. None of these statements announced by the drug companies and accepted by
00:10:38.000 doctors was true, end quote. Making things immeasurably worse, not only did this drug
00:10:44.860 not come as advertised, a second tragedy occurred when news of the deformed thalidomide baby started
00:10:51.960 making headlines the world over. And that second tragedy was how governments and social institutions
00:10:58.680 not only failed to keep the drug off the market, but didn't act quickly, even when its horrific
00:11:06.160 side effects were known. By the way, folks, that list of doddlers would include our home and native
00:11:13.540 land. In Canada, thalidomide somehow, someway remained on the market for three months after
00:11:20.260 have been withdrawn in Britain and Germany. What a gross dereliction of duty. Thus the question
00:11:27.260 arises, how many more babies were born in Canada with terrible deformities during those months when
00:11:33.840 it could have been prevented? Please remember this fact when it comes to our healthcare head honchos
00:11:40.960 robotically chirping follow the science but here's where things get personal i almost forgot to
00:11:51.060 mention a very relevant point regarding thalidomide me that's because my mother became
00:11:57.700 pregnant with yours truly back in august 1961 i found out later in life that she suffered from
00:12:05.680 horrendous morning sickness. So what did she do? Well, like thousands of other pregnant women
00:12:12.480 globally, she got a prescription for thalidomide and there it sat upon her night table. The cap
00:12:20.240 never unsealed, not a single tablet ever consumed. Why was it woman's intuition? Was it some hunch 0.59
00:12:29.980 deep in her gut that she didn't quite trust the drug companies and the doctors and the pharmacists
00:12:36.240 that this drug was completely safe and so it was that she never ingested thalidomide it's baffling
00:12:45.440 especially because i'm the kind of guy who goes running for an extra strength advil tablet should
00:12:51.380 a minor headache come to fruition. And yet I can't help but think, what if? What if my mother
00:13:01.140 had taken those tablets? What if I had been born terribly deformed? I don't think I would have
00:13:08.500 gone on to become a journalist. I don't think I would be here employed by this wonderful company
00:13:14.540 presenting this monologue to you. I don't think I would be married to a beautiful woman who gave me
00:13:20.100 two wonderful sons. No, I don't even want to think about what if. Now, while it was my
00:13:27.820 grandparents who raised me, I can tell you this much for certain. When my mother decided not to
00:13:35.240 consume those insidious tablets, that was the single greatest gift she could ever have bestowed
00:13:43.360 upon me. My mother was never really part of my life, and I only found out from a government
00:13:50.240 letter that she had died some 15 years ago. But I remain eternally grateful for her foresight.
00:14:00.120 Thanks to the global thalidomide disaster and what could have been my personal fate,
00:14:06.160 a lesson was learned which is to say i am not open to anything that is experimental being injected
00:14:15.720 into my body again i really should have known better when it came to ozempic and consider this
00:14:24.280 chilling paragraph from suffer the children quote secrecy cast a long shadow in the
00:14:31.540 thalidomide affair first over the discovery of what went wrong medically and legally and then
00:14:39.260 over publication of the truth much of the story in this book has laid for 15 years under veils
00:14:49.060 of legal censorship it is a story about a cover-up as well as about a drug disaster
00:14:56.660 it is less a scientific horror tale though that element is present than a parable about the
00:15:05.440 predicament of the individual who is asked to pay the price for progress end quote to be clear
00:15:15.160 i am not saying that ozempic is the second coming of thalidomide what i am saying is that nobody
00:15:23.300 knows for certain what the long-term side effects of the of this drug will be because it is still
00:15:29.640 so relatively new i also want to be clear about something as well if ozampic is working fine for
00:15:36.700 you be it controlling diabetes or for weight loss i am genuinely happy for you and i pray that in
00:15:45.600 the years to come, no other dire consequences will result from Ozempic use. In the meantime,
00:15:54.100 I am done with Ozempic. I'd rather pack on a few extra pounds. Heck, I'd even rather have a shorter
00:16:03.180 lifespan than go through life feeling as though I'm on death's doorstep. For me, when it came to
00:16:12.400 Zimpik, the cure was far worse than the curse.
00:16:25.080 My name is Billboard Chris, and I am in Madrid, Spain. I don't speak Spanish, but that's okay 0.99
00:16:35.660 because i've got some people coming out with me today 1.00
00:16:39.980 who do because it's important we get this message out which is los niños no pueden consentir
00:16:47.740 blockadores de la pubertad spain has done nothing really to stop this they're giving
00:16:56.860 puberty blockers to 12 year olds they're following up with the opposite sexist hormones
00:17:03.420 the sterilizing kids who have come to this incredibly harmful belief that they were born
00:17:11.020 in the wrong body, that they are transgender, and the whole thing's a lie. There's no such
00:17:15.740 thing as a transgender child. They're called girls and boys. And the affirming message is 1.00
00:17:21.820 they're beautiful just as they are. So I'm going to be out here having conversations,
00:17:26.520 and I've got the police rolling up right now.
00:17:31.600 Hola.
00:17:33.420 how are you? do you speak English? I'm allowed to record. It's not streaming.
00:17:48.660 we're gonna have a problem here if you don't speak English because I don't know how to
00:18:03.300 speak Spanish. It's not prohibido. It's not prohibido. I researched the laws before I came
00:18:17.180 here. Well, one of our favorite guys is Billboard Chris or Billboard Chris Elston for his full name.
00:18:23.200 I don't think legally Billboard is part of his name, but it's how people know him because he's
00:18:27.440 got this brilliant but simple approach to dealing with the issue of transgenderism, especially
00:18:33.940 in children. He literally stands there with an invitation to talk to people. He has a billboard
00:18:42.200 with a very simple and, in fact, sometimes irrefutable statement like, no child is born in
00:18:48.980 the wrong body, or children cannot consent to puberty blockers. Really stark statements, and
00:18:55.840 he'll stand in the busy town square and i've seen him do it everywhere from davos switzerland the
00:19:03.780 heart of the world economic forum to ireland to america of course and here in canada so i was not
00:19:10.160 surprised to see that he was in madrid spain and neither was i surprised even though i was
00:19:16.860 disappointed to see the police gave him a hassle in madrid joining us now freshly repatriated to
00:19:23.840 canada is our friend billboard chris chris great to see you again welcome back um you have the the
00:19:31.400 pure simplicity of what you do is i think the source of power you just put a basic statement
00:19:37.220 out there and invite the world to engage with you i'm not going to call you low energy in terms of
00:19:42.420 like it takes energy to do it but you don't you're not raising the energy of the conversation
00:19:47.340 you're responding with compassion and facts it's not like you're not a shouter is what i'm saying
00:19:52.480 you absorb energy from critics tell me what happened when you took your trademark uh
00:19:57.580 conversation to spain yeah so i went to madrid just for two days including plus two days of
00:20:07.060 travel but i was invited by an organization called azte weir which they do things like us
00:20:13.420 they've been around for 25 years and they like freedom and they are pro-life and they don't
00:20:18.420 think we should be sterilizing children with puberty blocking drugs and cross-sex hormones
00:20:21.580 and all these normal things so they also have an international offshoot called citizen go which
00:20:26.820 does work all over the world and i've collaborated with them so they were kind enough to invite me
00:20:31.360 and to give me a little award and then because i'm all that way in spain i thought let's go out
00:20:35.540 on the street so i had some spanish signs made of my message and i went to the main town square
00:20:43.400 in madrid called puerta del sol and i was there for probably four minutes i had just recorded a
00:20:50.400 one minute intro after setting up my tripod which i set up beside a big pillar so i'd be out of the
00:20:56.580 way and this is a huge town square it's 80 yards wide 100 yards long i wasn't near anybody i recorded
00:21:03.920 this little intro and as i'm finishing my intro and you can watch this on social media the police
00:21:09.000 pull up and right away they told me that what i was doing was prohibido i know what that means
00:21:15.260 and i don't speak spanish that's right and i don't speak it much either so we had a language barrier
00:21:21.460 but i studied the law before i went and i spoke with a lawyer in spain the night before
00:21:26.620 and i know i'm allowed to do this so anyway long story short after 10 or 15 minutes another police
00:21:34.740 car pulled up and they seized my phone they seized my tripod they seized my signs they then seized my
00:21:41.360 other phone i use an old phone sometimes when i'm talking to people to show them research
00:21:45.640 and i had to go to the police station where i was held for almost two hours
00:21:51.280 with no communication i was able to get a message out through my apple watch
00:21:57.620 to some friends in spain who got me lawyers and the lawyers showed up about 45 minutes later
00:22:04.240 and magically i was released with a fine but there's no number on the fine so this whole thing
00:22:11.780 is just a bit of a gong show and i'm going to appeal for sure because i don't think police
00:22:16.520 should be able to abuse their authority like that i've been reviewing all the legal
00:22:19.680 lees regarding this situation and they violated many things in the way they treated me and we
00:22:25.980 can't let that stand because i'm just a normal guy who thinks we shouldn't be sterilizing kids
00:22:29.460 who have been taught that they're born in the wrong body and i should be able to do that
00:22:32.640 Well, I like the fact that you know the law and you study it before you go to each jurisdiction. 1.00
00:22:37.340 And I've seen you deploy that when police come over.
00:22:40.840 They really don't know what to do with you.
00:22:43.460 I mean, they know you're different.
00:22:45.200 They can pretty quickly detect that you're not from wherever you are.
00:22:49.800 Like you're a Canadian or they might think you're an American.
00:22:54.960 So they don't know what to do.
00:22:56.200 And they think, well, better safe than sorry.
00:22:58.800 Let's arrest this guy.
00:23:00.120 um so you were held for two hours and then 45 minutes for the lawyers to come did you get back
00:23:05.440 on the streets did you take did you get back possession of your uh your phone your other
00:23:11.800 equipment did you get your billboards back i did i'm missing one of my my lapel mics so
00:23:18.300 i don't know they just misplaced it or something but yeah i got out i had tapas with the lawyers
00:23:23.520 and then together with the lawyers we went right back to the same spot in the town square well
00:23:27.720 that sounds like a very pleasant afternoon if you can handle the stress of it be arrested
00:23:32.140 be redeemed have some tapas with the lawyers and then go out on the street i'd say you had a busy
00:23:38.900 day i did and you know when these things happen ezra i'm calm up here yeah but your body still
00:23:45.960 has a reaction adrenaline yeah the adrenaline my apple watch kept interrupting me telling me that
00:23:50.440 my heart rate is abnormally high considering i'm not moving because it was running at about 110 to
00:23:55.160 120 because you don't know what these guys are going to do the same thing happened to me in
00:23:59.360 brussels right after i'd spoken at the european parliament i went out on the street they did the
00:24:04.300 same thing there they did what was called an administrative arrest at first saying i just
00:24:07.980 need to pay a fine well the next thing i know at the first police station i'm in handcuffs and then
00:24:12.140 i'm taken to another station where i'm put in jail and strip searched oh my god yeah you know i was
00:24:18.420 sort of joking about it being a busy day i mean just the arc the the turn of events in that day
00:24:23.340 was so incredible but i think authorities um you know in the whole world over i think are turning
00:24:32.060 against freedom of speech i think maybe america is still fairly free but i just online i see
00:24:40.340 france the uk australia canada all shepherding in more censorship laws either on what you can say
00:24:50.720 or you have to prove your ID and identify yourself before going online.
00:24:55.120 I really think that the powers that be are hostile to freedom of speech
00:25:00.160 because they want to control all the debates,
00:25:02.360 especially controversial subjects like transgenderism in children.
00:25:06.620 I think that, I mean, I remember back when Twitter was owned by Jack Dorsey
00:25:12.340 before it was sold to Elon Musk.
00:25:15.200 They censored transgenderism harder than any other subject.
00:25:18.780 um they would censor if you dead named someone or misgendered them or said he instead of they
00:25:25.540 they would censor you within minutes it's like they more more than they would censor things on
00:25:31.520 radical islam or terrorism they were obsessed by your subject speaking of which let me ask you
00:25:38.320 how has twitter been treating you since elon musk in in let's say the last year are you is it still
00:25:44.880 a free forum for you yeah it's great for me now before elon musk bought the platform there was a
00:25:51.700 13 month period where every single one of my posts was deemed adult content so every picture was
00:25:57.940 hidden every video and that made it impossible to grow but as soon as elon acquired x i was able to
00:26:04.000 get that lifted and it's fine now elon actually subscribes to me he pays me five dollars a month
00:26:10.160 come on come on i do the same for him though so it's a wash he subscribes to you you're the
00:26:16.560 that's that's such a uh a signal um i mean because of course transgenderism is a topic that
00:26:25.020 hits close to home with him and he he speaks about it with some pain um and i won't get into
00:26:30.300 i mean he he talks about it publicly that one of his children was caught up in the cult
00:26:33.620 um i think he must admire what you're doing yeah and i think his influence has spread to other
00:26:38.840 social media platforms as well because what happened a few years ago after he acquired it
00:26:43.340 we had what were known as the Twitter files where it was exposed that the U.S. government
00:26:47.280 was basically directing these executives within Twitter to censor conservatives accounts and the
00:26:53.340 same thing was happening at Facebook and YouTube etc and once all this came out we had Zuckerberg
00:26:58.880 start to wake up and now I wouldn't have been able to be on Facebook before I hadn't even tried back
00:27:05.000 then because i knew i wouldn't last but now my facebook account is growing rapidly instagram's
00:27:09.200 growing rapidly youtube's doing fine so i think in that respect things are better but we have
00:27:14.500 all these governments around the world as you have just noted who are trying to clamp down
00:27:18.960 on our freedom of speech and if democrats win this next election in a few years it's all just 0.82
00:27:24.700 going to be repeated again and democrats haven't given up one inch on transgender insanity they're 0.93
00:27:30.420 determined to die on this hill and we need to make sure that they do die on this hill yeah if i'm not 0.52
00:27:36.880 mistaken trump just turned 80 and of course he his term expires as president in a couple years
00:27:42.800 even though he likes to taunt people with the the prospect of running a third time i don't think
00:27:47.280 he's serious about it um you can see they're shifting their public enemy number one title
00:27:53.040 to elon musk i mean whether it's in the guise of he shouldn't have all that money or or whatever
00:27:59.880 the attacks on him are in the uk they particularly don't like him talking about immigration policy
00:28:04.900 and censorship he is i think the most consequential force for freedom of speech in the english world
00:28:12.780 and you already described your experience with that on twitter um i think that he will be their
00:28:20.060 chief target when trump is gone and no longer in a position to protect him but who knows maybe by
00:28:26.920 then he'll be on Mars beyond the reach of some of the sensors last word to you Chris um what are
00:28:32.780 your plans I mean I take you I mean you're like the energizer bunny you every week you pop up
00:28:38.640 somewhere else tell me what we should expect from you in the weeks and months ahead well I'll be
00:28:43.900 I'll be in Vancouver tomorrow on the streets before the Canada Qatar World Cup game and after as well
00:28:49.600 but on this weekend I'm hitting I'm heading to the UK for the Alliance for Responsible Citizenship
00:28:56.820 conference. It's basically the biggest international conservative conference. Jordan
00:29:00.640 Peterson had started it. And so that's a three-day conference where I'll be making a lot of friends
00:29:05.460 and doing important networking. And I'll be heading out on the streets as well. And I'm very excited
00:29:09.280 about that trip because my 16-year-old daughter is coming with me. So she's going to come to the
00:29:13.160 conference and we'll do some stuff together on the street and I'll make sure she's safe.
00:29:16.840 But that's going to be a fun week in London. Yeah, well, I've attended that conference before.
00:29:22.360 is very interesting some fascinating people unfortunately chris i won't be able to attend
00:29:27.520 this year i don't know if you heard the home office has banned me from visiting the uk and
00:29:32.580 i don't even want to say the words out loud lest i plant a seed of the idea but i'm delighted that
00:29:38.520 you're still allowed for now to travel to the united kingdom but someone who speaks the truth
00:29:44.520 and who takes to the streets like yourself uh i'm i i hope that you don't show up on a targeted
00:29:52.520 list from the uk because they are banning and censoring and arresting and questioning people
00:29:59.220 in a way that would make your madrid experience look like a walk in the park i totally agree but
00:30:04.840 i do have one trick up my sleeve i'm actually a british citizen as well my dad is from england so
00:30:11.900 So you got it.
00:30:14.140 Well, you know what?
00:30:15.060 I do need to get a passport though,
00:30:16.480 because they can cancel my ETA anytime.
00:30:18.880 So I need to get another passport.
00:30:20.480 All right.
00:30:20.820 Well, I hope that I don't think any of the bad guys are watching this
00:30:23.900 segment, but the fact that you've got British citizenship through your
00:30:26.740 father, that's very encouraging.
00:30:28.340 And that'll stop them from kicking you out.
00:30:30.500 I alas do not have that status.
00:30:32.760 Great to see you, my friend.
00:30:33.980 Keep up the good fight.
