Shane Smith sits down with key figures from Congress and the scientific community to dissect the new, two-year House investigation into COVID-19. Congressman Brad Wenstrup, who led the inquiry, lays out how missteps, censorship, and confusing mandates eroded public trust in institutions like the CDC and FDA. Dr. Robert Malone—an early pioneer of mRNA research—argues that known risks were concealed, while vaccine advocate Dr. Paul Offit acknowledges communication flaws yet defends the vaccines’ core value.

From evidence of political pressure on social media platforms to the role of pharmaceutical companies and the thorny debate over the lab-leak theory, this candid discussion unpacks the data and controversies that shaped—and sometimes misshaped—America’s pandemic response. What went wrong, who’s responsible, and how do we shore up our defenses for the next outbreak? In this revealing episode, Shane demands real answers about lost credibility, the lessons learned, and whether our nation is prepared for a future crisis when the stakes could be even higher.
