Dismantling New Age cults, wellness grifters, and conspiracy-mad yogis. At best, the conspirituality movement attacks public health efforts in times of crisis. At worst, it fronts and recruits for the fever-dream of QAnon. As the alt-right and New Age horseshoe toward each other in a blur of disinformation, clear discourse, and good intentions get smothered. Charismatic influencers exploit their f... more

Reviews

4.2 out of 5 stars from 4.9k ratings
  • Glyphosate Episode

    I want to give this episode zero stars, but I don’t want to knock the pod’s overall rating down because it is a good resource. It’s funny, as well; I’m not sure they realize how hilarious they are, but I hope they do.

    I decided to go with three, it’s enough to maybe cause a blip and show up on their radar, but not enough to drag it down.

    Also, I typically read mid-line reviews, not the two extreme ends of nut fluffing and off-topic complaints posted by people who’ve just blundered their way on... more

  • Where is the middle view?

    I was hopeful at first about this podcast but I see it is just another bashing against our current administration and the MAHA movement. I always try to listen to both sides of an issue but I am not getting thoughtful discourse from this channel.

    I really tried listening but can’t stomach the name calling anymore and one sided hysterics. Good bye, I will leave you to your echo chamber.

    The research feels one sided and they don’t apply nearly the level of scrutiny to mainstream medicine as they do to wellness.

  • Quality time

    I’ve been listening since ep. 1 and stg these college educated cis white Gen X men have gotten me through these troubled times firmly on the side of logic and science. I’m a woowoo believer so I genuinely think that without this critical eye on who’s profiteering off selling “vibes” I very easily could’ve gone the anti vax q adjacent slip & slide route. Thank you for the compassionate dose of sanity from inside the new age milieu. A lifeline to rational thought.

Brief: The Stepford Wives Conference
Q: What is the focus of this summit and how is it marketed to attendees?
The summit is marketed as a women's leadership event aimed at empowering attendees, with a branding that blends holistic health, ancestral wisdom, and traditional values, while being deeply embedded in conservative political activism through TPUSA connections and sponsor partnerships.
299: American Jihad
Q: What is the main mechanism by which rhetoric is shaping policy discussions here?
Rhetoric, especially chiasmus and apocalyptic framing, serves to blur the line between values and power, smoothing over contradictions in imperial or militaristic policy and making aggressive actions feel morally justified.
Brief: Did MAHA Put MAGA In Power?
Q: How do you think the media's role has enabled this situation?
The media often provides a platform for misinformation by allowing unverified opinions to present as legitimate discourse.
Brief: Did MAHA Put MAGA In Power?
