Nurse whistleblower Gail Macrae, BSN, RN joins Jodi to talk about what she saw on the floor after the shot rollout: a threefold surge in admissions, clotting disorders she'd never seen in 10 years of acute care, and an Epic banner that labeled every COVID admission "unvaccinated" by default. Jodi adds what she reported as house supervisor — inflated ICU counts and VAERS signals that never got filed.

On September 28, 2026 at 1 PM, Senator Ron Johnson's COVID Hospital Protocol Roundtable brings these stories to the Kennedy Caucus Room in the Senate. Families who dropped their loved ones at the ER doors and never saw them again will speak.

Nurses: show up. Join us in DC on September 27 for a nurse gathering and welcome reception the night before — we want your testimony recorded. Can't travel? Fill out the questionnaire so we stay connected:

⁠NursesOutLoud™⁠ is the independent, creator-owned media platform founded by⁠ Jodi O'Malley, MSN, RN.

Righteous RN, LLC is an approved provider of nursing continuing education by the Kansas State Board of Nursing (KSBN #LT0345-1225). KSBN approval is not an endorsement of the content.

In this powerful episode, Jodi O'Malley talks with Kristen Nagle, founder of the Reclaiming Birth Conference, about why more women are choosing home birth and rejecting unnecessary hospital interventions.

Kristen, a former NICU nurse who once believed home birth should be illegal, shares her transformation and the evidence-based reasons why modern obstetrics may be causing the harm it claims to prevent. Discover the myths keeping women afraid—from the "geriatric pregnancy" label at 35 to nuchal cord fears to breach birth—and learn why your birth plan likely won't be honored in the hospital.

This is a must-listen for pregnant women, mothers, nurses, and anyone questioning the systems we've been taught to trust.

A viral Fauci hearing post sparked over 1,000 comments in a couple of day!

What Jodi found was shocking: healthcare workers fell into three distinct camps. Some wanted it. Some needed the paycheck. Some would have left nursing entirely. But here's what nobody's talking about: the legal architecture that makes manufacturers immune from accountability, the nursing ethics gap that left 70% unprepared to respond, and why your Code of Ethics is your shield.

In this episode, Jodi breaks down:

• The three camps of healthcare workers—and why all three need to be heard
• Why mandates violated the Nuremberg Code and basic informed consent
• The 1986 Act, PREP Act, and CARES Act—and why you've never heard of them
• How the nursing code explicitly required her to escalate danger (and why she was cleared on ethics grounds)
• Why ethics modules in nursing school are failing an entire generation
• Jennifer Bridges' Houston Methodist protest—and why the nursing community didn't rally
• The perverse incentive that makes vaccines the ONLY product in America not required to become safer

The real issue isn't the vaccine. It's that nurses don't know their professional code—and manufacturers know it too.

Listen to a whistleblower who was cleared by the Arizona State Board on ethics grounds explain why mandatory nursing ethics education isn't optional—it's survival.

A full circle moment. Four decades. One nurse leader that changed my nursing career—and I didn't even know it at the time.

In this episode:

• How a nurse's quiet leadership shaped my path (without her ever knowing)
• The complete heart block story—when a nurse told a resident surgeon "no" and saved a patient's life
• What the Code of Ethics actually looks like in real practice (hint: it's not what you learned in school)
• Why 40% of nurses are considering leaving the workforce by 2029
• A 27-year-old paralyzed patient and the ethics committee decision that defined a nurse's purpose
• The COVID years: when staying true to your convictions meant walking away from everything
• Lawrence's story—an 18-year-old gunshot victim and the power of human connection at the bedside
• Why most nurses were never taught the moral foundation of their profession
• What it means to work alongside doctors, not for them
• A naked running man, a tree, Tempe, Arizona, and why we need more stories like this

Meet Dr. Lisa Caplan: 40 years in critical care. ICU nurse. Charge nurse. Leader. Doctor of Nursing Practice. Author of The Heart Behind the Badge: 40 Years of Nursing, Healing, Courage, Humor, Advocacy, Leadership, and the Humanity at the Bedside.

And the nurse who taught me what it means to stand firm.

Sex trafficking isn’t “somewhere else.” It’s here.

In this episode, I’m joined by Detective Heidi Chance (retired Phoenix Police Department, 25 years—14 years undercover in sex trafficking) to break down what nurses, parents, and communities are missing in real time.

We start with a very real ER scenario—an “intoxicated female” who keeps saying “I was raped”—and why bias and speed can cause clinicians to miss life-changing evidence. Heidi walks us through how traffickers and “handlers” operate, what victims can look like in healthcare settings, and the red flags nurses can’t miss.

In this episode, we cover:

• ER red flags: controlling companion/handler, multiple phones, unusual attire, agitation when security/law enforcement is mentioned
• How to get the patient alone (yes—use a “test” excuse if you have to)
• Why protecting a patient’s belongings/phone matters (evidence + control)
• What to document when a victim won’t disclose (and why it can matter later)
• Sextortion: how predators target kids online and what parents need to say out loud
• Actionable resources and what to do next
