Guest #34 | Richard Gage
What really happened on 9/11? In this groundbreaking episode, architect and truth advocate Richard Gage, AIA delivers a shocking, evidence-packed breakdown that challenges everything we’ve been told. From the unexplained collapse of Building 7 to the physics-defying destruction of the Twin Towers, Gage walks us through eyewitness testimony, molten steel, nanothermite, and the suppression of forensic evidence.
If you’ve ever questioned the official story — or want to understand why you should — this is the episode that pulls back the curtain. With 3,600 architects and engineers standing behind him, Gage brings the data, the science, and the urgency.
This isn’t conspiracy. This is controlled demolition.
🎙️ DSD INTERVIEW #34 | AIA Architect Richard Gage Deep Dives into the Truth About WTC 7
🔥 What Really Happened to Building 7? | Richard Gage Drops the Receipts on 9/11
Episode Description: Architect Richard Gage joins the Deep Shallow Dive podcast to dissect the collapse of Building 7 on 9/11. Was it really fire—or a controlled demolition?
What If the Official Story of 9/11 Doesn’t Add Up?
In this explosive episode of the Deep Shallow Dive podcast, host Ray Doustdar sits down with Richard Gage, AIA, the architect-turned-whistleblower who has spent nearly two decades challenging the official narrative of 9/11. The focal point of this eye-opening conversation? The mysterious collapse of World Trade Center Building 7—a 47-story skyscraper that fell straight down in under seven seconds on September 11th, 2001, despite not being hit by a plane.
Through detailed forensic analysis, structural breakdowns, and insider testimony, Gage presents a case that questions the government’s version of events. With decades of architectural experience and a following of over 3,600 fellow engineers and architects, Gage walks listeners through an overwhelming array of evidence—photographic, testimonial, and scientific—that points not to fire, but to controlled demolition.
From thermite residue to freefall acceleration and eyewitness reports of explosions, the conversation gets deep fast. If you think you know what happened on 9/11, this interview will challenge you to rethink everything. Gage even connects the dots between 9/11, subsequent Middle Eastern wars, and the playbooks used in more recent crises like COVID-19 and the Israel-Gaza conflict.
🧠 Who Is Richard Gage?
Richard Gage is a credentialed architect and the founder of Architects & Engineers for 9/11 Truth. Over the past 18+ years, he’s presented at hundreds of conferences, interviewed countless eyewitnesses, and challenged government agencies—including NIST—to back up their claims with real science. He now produces the series 9/11: Crime Scene to Courtroom and continues to advocate for a new investigation.
💥 The Building 7 Collapse: Why It Matters
At the heart of this episode is a detailed examination of Building 7, which collapsed at 5:20 PM on 9/11. Gage outlines how the official explanation—fire-induced failure—defies structural engineering logic:
The building fell symmetrically into its own footprint
Freefall acceleration was admitted by NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology)
Fires were not widespread or hot enough to weaken steel to that degree
Steel columns showed signs of sulfur corrosion and melting—evidence consistent with thermite
Eyewitnesses and first responders reported explosions and countdowns prior to collapse
🧪 Thermite, Nanothermite & the Molten Steel Mystery
One of the most damning pieces of evidence presented: molten iron microspheres and red-gray chips found in the dust. According to Gage and peer-reviewed studies, these match the chemical signature of nanothermite, a military-grade incendiary not available to the general public.
“Fire doesn’t produce molten iron. Thermite does.” — Richard Gage
Gage also highlights that temperatures required to produce the chemical reactions found in WTC debris were far beyond what office fires can reach.
🧱 Collapse Physics That Defy Logic
Gage deconstructs the collapse using the laws of physics:
Newton’s Third Law: A lighter structure (the top floors) cannot destroy a stronger, denser structure (the lower tower) at uniform speed.
No resistance from 81 vertical columns? That’s virtually impossible without simultaneous detonation.
Similar buildings engulfed in fire around the world didn’t collapse, including examples from London, Jakarta, and the UAE.

🚨 Final Thoughts: This Changes Everything
This isn’t just about a building. It’s about questioning what we’re told, thinking critically about government narratives, and following the evidence—no matter where it leads. Richard Gage’s detailed breakdown doesn’t just challenge the official 9/11 story; it shatters it.
If you're ready to look deeper, this episode is essential listening. And remember: the truth doesn’t mind being questioned.
