heretics. | andrew gold

Hollywood legend Rob Schneider (SNL, Deuce Bigalow, Grown Ups) joins Andrew Gold in the desert.

in this deep dive, Rob reveals why he’s choosing to stay in "Siberia" rather than conform to the new authoritarianism of the film world.

From secret phone calls with A-list stars who are too afraid to speak out, to his famous (and surprisingly touching) confrontation with Robert De Niro, Rob pulls back the curtain on the "blacklisting" happening behind the scenes. We explore the "politics of envy," why critics have always had it out for him, and the emotional toll of being "canceled" by his own family.

This isn't just about movies—it's a conversation about the collapse of Western institutions, the rise of "suicidal empathy," and why Rob believes that "silly is king" in a world that has lost its sense of humor.

Whether you’re a fan of classic SNL comedy or you’re here for the "heretical" truth-telling, this interview is a must-watch.

In this compelling episode of Heretics, I’m joined by the "Skeptical Environmentalist" himself, Bjorn Lomborg, to dismantle the current narrative surrounding Net Zero and climate policy. While the world is often told that the transition to green energy will be cheap and easy, Lomborg presents a starkly different reality: a plan that could cost trillions, lead to de-industrialization, and effectively demand that you become poorer to save the planet.

We dive deep into the data they don’t want you to see—from the surprising statistics on heat versus cold deaths to the hidden costs of wind and solar. Is the current panic actually leading us toward a political and economic catastrophe? And if Net Zero is physically and politically impossible, what is the real solution to our environmental challenges?

If you're tired of the alarmist headlines and want a rational, data-driven look at the future of our planet, this is an episode you can't afford to miss.

Comedian Andrew Lawrence reveals the stories behind his three biggest cancellations and the price of pushing comedy beyond accepted limits. He revisits the online firestorms that followed his most controversial jokes - including the Euro 2020 penalty tweet that reportedly cost him around 30 tour dates and the Liverpool parade joke that triggered another wave of outrage and venue bans - and asks whether anything should remain off-limits in comedy.
