Really digging this
Shout out Zach Harper. Zach is a cohost of a podcast called Cinephobe, where they watch a poorly rated movie and they try to ascertain if the movie is properly poorly rated or didn’t get a fair shake
I normally avoid conspiracy theory podcasts, but these guys examine real patterns, ideas, and news. They are incredibly sincere about their anxieties regarding these trends; I don’t know why it doesn't feel like fear-mongering, but it doesn't. They somehow balance the heavy lifting with humor, making the whole show feel refreshing and validating rather than exacerbating.
I want to believe and a huge fan of Jason.
You’re close… you’re not converting the main conspiracy long enough or with depth. I’d prefer 70% primary with 30% subtopics
still very optimistic
Second host rarely talks. I don’t understand why he’s part of the show. A lot more politics than I thought. Show about Epstein, where guest is talking about how first Trump election i felt just devastating to her as 9/11. Neutral political listener, not interested in one side of politics or the other. I’d love to just hear about conspiracies on the associated data.
