    Just what I was looking for
    Thanks for your episodes on conspiracy theories. I knew within the first two minutes that this content was just what I was looking for in this misinformation age.

    Arrogant
    The first two episodes are very good and interesting. The arrogance of the host to proclaim that she was above a conspiracy theory because she is surrounded by science was ridiculous. She would be better served by true introspection instead of the proclamation that she’s above it all protected by all liberalizing “science.” This attitude is the foundation of the culture of micro-aggressions occurring at American universities. After the first two episodes, it becomes a chance for the elite to criticize the ultra-conservative wing for believing in conspiracy theory while ignoring the same proclivities of the ultra-progressive wing. For example: Trump collided with Russia to steal the election—there’s no proof, which is proof that it occurred. Fits the conspiracy theory model well. Trump is a bumbling idiot, how could he possibly have the self discipline for that?

    Professional
    Very professional and well produced. They take some perspectives on topics that are outside of the traditional story line. These may not be extremely useful and educational but definitely interesting and entertaining. It feels like a young professional news network who released a topical podcast. Worth checking out if the topics interest you.
