Are those “small business owners” selling trinkets on Tik Tok actually real? Are those ripped gay hunks on Twitter just AI? Do people even care about the distinction between “fake” and “real” in the content they see online? In this episode we dive into the various ways people are deploying AI entities on social media: from the scammy, to the benign, to the sadistic and abusive. Travis unpacks the recent controversy over an Australian influencer who was caught using AI to promote her dubious charity as well the strange trend of videos of fake belt buckle makers. Later the boys are joined by Ej Dickson, senior culture writer at WIRED and author of One Bad Mother: In Praise of Psycho Housewives, Stage Parents, Momfluencers, and Other Women We Love to Hate. Dickson shares the perspective she’s gained on reporting on influencer culture, parasocial relationships, and AI manipulation. Along the way the crew ponders whether humanity will actually have to lose a war to AI in order to get plugged into an illusory Matrix-like world or if people will walk into it willingly so long as they can interact with their favorite synthetic influencers.

POV: You’re the world’s richest man, clicking the POST button on the platform you own. You’ve just shared an inconceivably terrible and violently bigoted film to your 240 million followers, catapulting what would’ve been a forgotten flop to the top of the streaming charts. The film is “Citizen Vigilante”, featuring Armie Hammer’s “comeback” role where he executes migrants. It’s directed by the prolifically terrible Uwe Boll, who once mercilessly pummeled his harshest critics in a boxing ring. For our latest movie night, Brad forced co-hosts Live, Annie, and Jake to hate-watch this travesty, enduring the pain so you don’t have to. Although, Jake genuinely enjoyed covering Boll’s endless video game adaptations, none of which he’s actually seen.

John Murray Spear and his followers have built their “mechanical messiah.” There’s just one problem: it won’t move. In the conclusion to Spear’s excellent adventure, the spirit of Benjamin Franklin guides the “Motorists” through increasingly elaborate attempts to bring the “Electrical Infant” to life. These include a copper-and-zinc wizard suit, a proposed worldwide network of telepathic transmission towers, powdered metals, personal magnetism, soul blending, and the spiritual labor of medium Sarah Newton., newspapers erupt, and P.T. Barnum raises the obvious question: who is the father? The machine finally twitches, but many, including P.T. Barnum, are less than impressed. Jack follows the New Motor’s journey through “wombific” processes, free-love theology, public scandal, exile, and its alleged destruction by a gang of young Baptists. Spear moves on to spirit-designed sewing machines, an electrically powered ship modeled after a duck, and a new doctrine of “True Marriage.” Jack also digs into the 2019 claim that the long-lost Mechanical Messiah had been discovered in a Colorado attic and the professional hoax engineer behind the story.

Jack LaRoche and Trey Grace spent Fourth of July weekend inside Intercessors for America’s “Rededicate America” event at the Museum of the Bible, and they tell Travis, Liv, and Jake all about it. Intercessors for America (IFA) describes its own organizing model as “News. Prayer. Action.” In practice, it involves prophecy about the destiny of the United States, political prayer, and “spiritual warfare.” At the sold-out two-day gathering, Jack and Trey encounter “prophetic elder” Dutch Sheets, spiritual warrior Cindy Jacobs, one-man performer Rich Swingle, and American Idol finalist Danny Gokey. What does the event reveal about the current state of Christian dominionism, anti-CRT school board panic, anti-Sharia politics, covenant theology, vaccine weirdness, and the New Apostolic Reformation-adjacent prophetic scene? It turns out that self-described modern prophets are increasingly anxious about Trump’s rapid aging and the lack of young people in their movement.

This week, Jack begins the strange saga of John Murray Spear: Universalist preacher, abolitionist, prison reformer, anti-death-penalty agitator, spiritual medium, and eventual would-be midwife to a “mechanical messiah.” Before Spear tried to build the “New Motor” (a living machine meant to channel divine electricity and inaugurate a new age) he spent decades pursuing radical reform in 19th-century New England. Jack traces Spear’s working-class childhood, his years in the Universalist movement, his “missions of love” to prisoners and the poor, his work against capital punishment, his involvement with abolitionism and the Underground Railroad, and the mob beating that nearly killed him in Portland. Then things get weirder. Enter the unfortunately-named Andrew Jackson Davis, Emanuel Swedenborg, the Fox Sisters, mesmeric trances, automatic writing, spirit healing, Benjamin Franklin from beyond the grave, psychometry, sulfur springs, and the “Association of Electricizers.” By the end of Part 1 of our story, Spear has been selected by a committee of dead reformers, scientists, and Founding Fathers to help remake the world through electricity, spirit communication, and one very important machine in a tower in Lynn, Massachusetts. Next week: Jack tells the tale of Spear’s mechanical messiah. Subscribe for $5 a month to get all the premium episodes: www.patreon.com/qaa Check out our new podcast series network Cursed Media!

The White House’s official twitter account went fishing this past week using “Q posting” as bait. They snagged a wild Travis View hook, line, and sinker. While posting about President Trump’s executive orders related to quantum technology, the social media team for the White House and the Pentagon seized the moment to post “Q is for quantum” memes, copy Q drop aesthetics, and parody QAnon slogans. We discuss this new era of government communications, in which trolling and QAnon fan service are used to amplify cybersecurity policy for speculative tech. Once they get a good picture with Travis and throw him back, he moves onto the reemerging conspiracy that Charlie Kirk’s wireless microphone was rigged with explosives and the bizarre evidence some claim proves this theory. Then Liv and Julian discuss the world cup and what offsides means while Jake and Travis listen intently. Finally, Jake brought us a little dessert to top off the episode in the form of a “large animal chonker and their pilled to the gills parent”. Bon appetite.

BING BONG! After an extended absence due to some antibiotics, Liv is back and has brought with her another episode filled with a slurry of emotion. Liv’s latest covers the betting app Kalshi and its competitor, Polymarket. Although illegal in some states, these “prediction market platforms” have had a boom in popularity allowing users to bet on anything imaginable, including but not limited to, political events. With Don Jr as a strategic advisor for both Kalshi and Polymarket, it’s safe to say these morally questionable sites will be with us for the foreseeable future. Jake and Julian join Liv on this adventure and I would bet it doesn’t take too long for the rails to leave entirely with this troublesome trio.

Travis and Annie are joined by intellectual historian A.J.A. Woods to discuss their new book The Cultural Marxism Conspiracy: Why the Right Blames the Frankfurt School for the Decline of the West. Woods traces how a group of German critical theorists associated with the Frankfurt School were transformed in the right-wing imagination into the secret architects of everything reactionaries hate about modern life, including feminism, multiculturalism, LGBTQ rights, “political correctness,” Critical Race Theory, and “wokeness.” A.J. documents how paranoia about the Frankfurt School travelled from Lyndon LaRouche’s conspiracist ecosystem, through the Free Congress Foundation and the 1990s panic over political correctness, into the Tea Party, Gamergate, anti-woke politics, and contemporary right-wing movements in the US, UK, and Brazil.

What's up listeners, it’s me, your friend, Marky Mark. We’re going to stay prayed up today, okay? Just login to my new app “Hallow” and for the low price of $69(nice).99/year you can optimize your praying output everyday with me and Chris Pratt. Where’s my 4am club at? Get a 4am prayer pump, okay? Yes listeners, it’s time. With Jake’s free trial already lapsed and Jack’s about to, the two have partnered up to bring you the worst content in prayer maxing. Founded in 2018 the app “Hallow” is a catholic meditation and prayer app that has brought in celebrities such as Liam Neeson, Gwen Stefani, Russell Brand, Chris Pratt, and most notably, Mark Wahlberg. Jack kicks off the episode discussing the celebrities that have partnered with Hallow and the company’s questionable ideals. Then Jake brings us home focusing on the app’s content and how the background ambient sounds might just be worth the price of admission. Jake finds out many celebrities are in fact still living.

In part two, Travis takes us back in time to Western New York State during the beginning of the Jacksonian era. The plans of 50-year-old William Morgan to publish Masonic secrets turned into one of America’s first nationwide true-crime media frenzies. After Morgan and printer David C. Miller threatened to expose the inner workings of Freemasonry, local Masons responded with lawsuits, surveillance, sabotage, armed mobs, bogus warrants, arson attempts, kidnapping, and possibly Morgan’s murder in the Niagara River.  This episode follows the story from Batavia taverns and print shops to the Ontario County jail, the road to Rochester, the failed Canadian handoff, and the grim stone powder magazine at Old Fort Niagara where Morgan was last known to be held. We also dig into the forgotten role of David C. Miller, the “Masonic spy” Daniel Johns, the propaganda war between Masons and Anti-Masons, and how the scandal helped create the first major third party in American politics.

The world was still, and wonders rare, Save now and then a dream Of railroads, and of side canals, And guns that go by steam; When Morgan swore a mighty oath, In spite of friends or foes, That he, for cash or conscience' sake, Would Masonry disclose And Miller swore to print the tale, And spread it far and near, That all the blind on earth might see, And all the deaf might hear; That from the greatest to the least, By Scripture rule, forsooth, That all should come to knowledge of The hidden light of truth. Then hell broke loose, and all the host Of Masons circled round, To kidnap both, destroy the book, Or burn Batavia down; And fury seized on many a brain, And vengeance seemed to start, In room of Love and Charity, From many a Mason's heart. And then the General Hoop-pole Knight, Renowned for chivalry, Began to feel that feather grow, Called popularity ; And how if he succeeded well By prowess in the fight, That he should be a Senator, As well as leading Knight: "And cried, ' Arise my friends, aris

The hit podcast The Telepathy Tapes claims to reveal a hidden world where nonverbal autistic people communicate telepathically, visit one another on an astral gathering place called “The Hill,” access cosmic knowledge, and perhaps even commune with psychic animals. But behind the paranormal framing is a much older and more troubling story: facilitated communication, the discredited practice that can turn vulnerable people into human Ouija boards. In this episode, Jack looks at the ideomotor effect, Clever Hans, “letter boarding,” the career of Diane Hennacy Powell, Ky Dickens’ rise as the voice of The Telepathy Tapes, and how New Age ideas about telepathy, dark matter, the Akashic Records, savants, parrots, dogs, and morphic fields have attached themselves to the desperate desire to give non-speaking people a voice.

A French GT champion's skull turns up in a remote forest. In Paris, two hooded intelligence operatives sweat through a heatwave in a stolen Renault with a silencer made from an applesauce pouch. Nearby, a life coach in the suburbs learns the bounty on her head is 70 grand, plus tax. Brad is here to share the intoxicating pleasure of untangling a real-life Masonic conspiracy, dubbed “The Athanor Affair.” It’s the unfolding story of a Freemason lodge outside Paris that ran a murder-for-hire service staffed by government spooks playing James Bond, if Bond were a moron. Twenty-two people are on trial at this exact moment, in one of France’s most bizarre court cases in modern times. Listen now, before the body count rises. Next week Travis will take us through another Masonic murder, set in the more distant past, in Part II.

Annie Kelly takes the wheel for a deep dive into how “Great Replacement” theory went global. We trace how a once-fringe white-nationalist panic moved through Generation Identity, the alt-right, YouTube, the manosphere, Tucker Carlson, Stephen Crowder, and into mainstream electoral politics. For more insights, Annie talks with Dr. Michael Feola, author of The Rage of Replacement, about “melancholic nationalism,” “remigration,” and how demographic paranoia mutates into both political strategy and violent rage.

Jack LaRoche and first-time contributor Trey Grace go undercover on the National Mall for the May 17th Christian nationalist event Rededicate 250. This White House-linked rally features prayer, fasting, patriotic worship, shofar blasts, AI George Washington, and rumors about whether Trump might appear in person (he didn’t.) What begins as a sweaty field trip through Freedom250 pageantry turns into a tour of the increasingly fused worlds of Christian nationalism, the New Apostolic Reformation, Silicon Valley-backed prayer tech, AI evangelism, and Trump-era state religion cosplay. Along the way, the episode digs into America Prays, Pray.com, Peter Thiel-adjacent religious technology, Brian Alarid’s dream of praying for every person on Earth by name, Lou Engle and Dutch Sheets’ spiritual warfare rhetoric, and the “Appeal to Heaven” flag as a Christian nationalist signal. Religious studies scholar Dr. Matthew D. Taylor joins to explain how NAR networks, charismatic prophecy, and Trumpist politics have converged into a movement that sees itself not as lobbying the state, but as reclaiming it for God. Also: The Great Controversy, the Freedom Truck, the “algorithm of liberty,” and the ballroom theology of Eric Metaxas. Matthew D.

Welcome to the age of AI slopaganda, where the synthetic videos are nearly indistinguishable from the real, the real videos are getting more suspect, and everyone is one fake Instagram Reel away from becoming the Facebook boomer they once mocked. Liv examines the newest iterations of AI-generated political propaganda, including Trump posting a fake video of himself throwing Stephen Colbert in a dumpster, “Swifties for Trump,” Mike Collins’ AI Jon Ossoff, Spencer Pratt’s Batman campaign ads, Iranian Lego anti-Hegseth videos, fake Netanyahu death images, deepfakes targeting women in politics, the Dean Phillips/Biden robocall, Gavin Newsom’s JD Vance couch slop, and Cuomo’s anti-Mamdani AI ads. We explore how “satire,” misinformation, engagement bait, and campaign strategy are collapsing into one ugly sludge pile.

For nine years and over 1100 episodes Dan Friesen and his co-host Jordan Holmes helmed the podcast Knowledge Fight, where they unpacked and analyzed the neverending flood of nonsense that flowed from the mouth of Alex Jones through his media empire Infowars. After it was announced that Alex Jones’ ownership of Infowars had ended, even if his career as a broadcaster had not, Knowledge Fight decided to call it quits earlier this month, ending a podcasting run that began in 2017. We speak to Dan about what it’s like to spend nearly a decade covering Alex Jones, why people are still drawn to Jones, the value of debunking, The Onion’s deal to take over the Infowars brand, and how his brain is healing now that he no longer listens to unhinged rants every week. https://www.showmestateofmind.com/ Subscribe for $5 a month to get all the premium episodes: www.patreon.com/qaa Check out our new podcast series network Cursed Media!

In this Movie Night episode, Travis, Jake, and Jack descend into the sweaty church-basement panic of 1970s Christian exploitation cinema with a double feature: If Footmen Tire You, What Will Horses Do? (1971) and A Thief in the Night (1973). These were not slick Hollywood productions, but they reached millions through church screenings, youth groups, libraries, and religious distribution networks. If The Footmen Tire You used anti-communist nightmare imagery to warn Christians that godless radicals were coming for their children, their churches, and their wives. A Thief in the Night turned rapture theology into an indie horror movie, terrifying generations of evangelical children with the fear of waking up to find their loved ones vanished and the Antichrist running the United Nations. We talk about Ron Ormond’s journey from swamp monsters and stripper movies to Christian gore, Estus Pirkle’s apocalyptic anti-communist sermons, the birth of rapture horror, and the power of low-budget religious filmmaking. https://archive.org/details/if-footmen-tire-you-what-will-horses-do-1971-dir.-ron-ormond-final-reconstruction-hd-267159565 Subscribe for $5 a month to get all the premium episodes: www.patreon.com/qaa Check out our new podcast series network Cursed Media!

It’s Happening!! Disclosure is here! Brad is back to report everything you need to know on the topic from his deep underground military base. This episode weaves three stories into a terrifying mandala of our rapidly accelerating cultural madness. The administration's flaccid “disclosure” document dump, the mainstreaming of UFOs-as-biblical demons from the highest echelons of government, and the tragic death of UFO guru David Wilcock—the missing link between these cultural artifacts.

In part 2 of this 2 part episode, this continued examination of John C. Lilly's life leads Jack into a sensory deprivation tank. Building upon the research done by Canadian psychologist Donald Hebb, Lilly's use of sensory deprivation tanks (and a lot of hallucinogens) led him to develop the concept of the Earth Coincidence Control Office (ECCO). ECCO would ultimately consume Lilly, dramatically altering the course of his life and he would later attribute it to nearly ending it on a few occasions. Along the way, prolonged isolation of graduate students who need to be "toileted", elements of Lilly's research end up in a CIA interrogation manual, "Tron is us", and rules for humans such as: You are expected to expect the unexpected every minute, every hour of every day and of every night.

In 2025, researchers at the University of California submitted an academic article related to a case study of what they called “New-onset AI-associated Psychosis”. The article breaks down the case of a 26 year old woman who was hospitalized after she began to believe her brother was speaking to her through ChatGPT. Unfortunately, this was not an isolated incident and in today’s episode Liv examines similar stories that have emerged in the wake of the AI chatbot surge. Along the way, she explores how the companies behind these chatbots plan to prevent situations like this from happening - or if they plan to at all - and even shows what happens when a user becomes overly reliant on their AI and begins to sound like one themselves.

Before marine mammal song CDs conquered mall kiosks and the slogan “Save the Whales” appeared on bumper stickers nationwide, one scientist became obsessed with the idea that dolphins might be our closest nonhuman intellectual peers. In part one of our two-part Evil Neuroscience series, Jack dives into the life and work of John C. Lilly: neurophysiologist, dolphin researcher, SETI-adjacent dreamer, and the man whose attempts to bridge the interspecies communication gap proved to be more horrifying than illuminating. We follow Lilly from Biblical ideas about language and human supremacy to the Green Bank conference, where astronomers, NASA advisors, and future SETI legends formed the secretive “Order of the Dolphin.” Then we head to Marineland and Dolphin Rock, where Lilly’s research involved whale brains, suffocating dolphins, dolphin vocalization experiments, LSD, Margaret Howe’s infamous live-in language study with Peter the dolphin, and the tragic collapse of the project. Along the way: Bob Dylan’s worst song, existential elk, horny dolphins, Cold War science funding, animal language research, and the birth of the New Age dolphin obsession. Next time, Jack unpacks how Lilly’s search for nonhuman intelligence turned inward through isolation tanks, psychedelics, MKULTRA-adjacent research, and the Earth Coincidence Control Office.

We’re joined by former U.S. diplomat Josef Burton to examine modern Pahlavism: an online, diaspora-driven movement built around nostalgia for Iran’s deposed Pahlavi dynasty and the imagined restoration of Crown Prince Reza Pahlavi. What was once a marginal exile politics of royalist uncles, former regime officials, and anti–Islamic Republic hawks has, in the past decade, been transformed into a bizarre right-populist scene. It’s part monarchist revival, part regime-change lobby, part “Make Iran Great Again” fandom. Josef traces how this movement emerged from the trauma and politics of the Iranian diaspora, then accelerated through Persian-language satellite TV, social media influencers, think tanks, bot campaigns, and the broader ecosystem of neoconservative, Israeli, Gulf State, and MAGA-aligned regime-change politics. Pahlavism presents itself as the authentic voice of Iranians, but often functions more like an astroturfed culture-war identity: anti-regime, pro-Western intervention, aggressively nostalgic for a whitewashed “Iran before the revolution,” and hostile toward Iranian dissidents who favor diplomacy, pluralism, or any future not centered on the Pahlavi name. The movement has started to resemble a QAnon-style political subculture: very online, retribution-focused, conspiratorial, obsessed with hidden agents and imminent deliverance, and convinced that posting, doxxing, street theater, and displays of loyalty are forms of revolutionary action. But unlike QAnon, modern Pahlavism’s fantasy of “the storm” has been tied to real intelligence networks, real lobbying money, and real military escalation. When the long-promised war finally arrived and failed to produce a restored monarchy, the movement was left to cope with betrayal, humiliation, factional infighting, and increasingly bizarre displays of royalist devotion.

Are the nation’s top federal scientists being vanished to cover up earth-shattering revelations about aliens and advanced space technology? It’s a theory that President Trump, FBI Director Kash Patel, and the House Oversight Committee are at least pretending to take seriously. But what’s the truth behind the “dead or missing scientists” lists floating around social media for the last few months? Mike Rothschild joins us today to discuss the recent cases of scientists seemingly disappearing or dying under mysterious circumstances. Along the way we unpack the long tradition conspiracy theories that involve assembling lists of dead people and concluding they all have the same mysterious cause, including the “Curse of King Tut,” the Clinton body count, and little known GEC-Marconi scientist deaths conspiracy theory.

The parent company of the satirical publication The Onion has a deal to take control of Infowars, the conspiracist media machine built by Alex Jones for the past 26 years. It is a proposed six-month licensing arrangement, pending approval from a Texas judge, with an option to renew. That is expected to be approved this Thursday, April 30th. Travis and Jake speak to former NBC News reporter and The Onion CEO Ben Collins about the deal, the new creative vision for Infowars, what it means to Sandy Hook parents who were victimized by Jones, and comedian Tim Heidecker's role as creative director for the venture. Before that, Julian joins us to unpack theories related to Cole Tomas Allen, the Torrance man who was charged with attempting to assassinate the president after attempting to storm the White House Correspondents' Association dinner.

After years of speaking to Liv through their computers, the OG QAA hosts have finally met Liv IRL before her and Jake attended Coachella. Liv was especially excited to see The Strokes, while Jake was just hoping for a better experience than the uncomfortable Sabrina Carpenter concert he had attended in the metaverse. In this episode the two investigate the conspiracies they witnessed growing around them once they passed the lax security and entered the festival. From Julian Casablancas to some poorly timed skywriting, no one was safe from the baking minds of Coachella influencers - and no VIP Spam Musubi was safe from Jake.

In part two of this two part episode, Jack continues their look into the dubious practice of “de-extinction” this time as it is pushed in the 21st century by Colossal BioSciences. Created in 2019 by Ben Lamm and George Church, Colossal aims at making extinction, as well as the endangered species list, a thing of the past using CRISPR technology. Claiming to have revived the Dire Wolf and Red Wolf, the company actually has been more successful in massive PR campaigns and paying off critics than reversing species death. But who benefits when people believe that the ecosystem can be preserved through test tubes rather than policy aimed at protecting endangered animals? You guessed it: wealthy sociopaths who see traditional conservation efforts as a barrier to total planetary domination.

Travis and Jack are joined by Devin O’Shea to examine why even powerful billionaires like Peter Thiel and Jeffrey Epstein seek increasingly exclusive associations. Devin turns to the anthropological work The Power of Ritual in Prehistory: Secret Societies and Origins of Social Complexity by Brian Hayden to show how and why societies develop groups that declare themselves keepers of esoteric knowledge.

The long history of humans bending biology for civilization eventually raised an important question: if animals can be domesticated, then couldn’t they also be de-domesticated? Further: could selective breeding allow scientists to reverse-engineer a species back from extinction and contain identical DNA to its ancestors? The first people to attempt “de-extinction” were, naturally, mad zoologists supported by Nazis. Modern attempts to leverage molecular biology to revive long-lost species provide a classic example of history rhyming. In part one of this two-part episode, Jack explores the disturbing ideology behind the de-extinction efforts of the Heck brothers in 1930s Germany, as well as their attempts to create so-called “genetically pure” species. Next week, we’ll unpack the floundering species revival program from genetic engineering startup Colossal Biosciences and why billionaires and the Trump administration are so invested in gaining the ability to make extinction less permanent than commonly believed.

“THE BIBLE SAYS…JESUS IS NOT GOD - GOD’S SON DID NOT PRE-EXIST IN HEAVEN”. This billboard is what Julian was taking a photo of while attempting to not rear-end the driver in front of him. It was paid for by World’s Last Chance - an organization founded by Galal Philip Habib Doss. Established in 2004, the group claims its central office is the “World Wide Web,” asserts that the Earth is flat, and argues that Christians are wrong in nearly every aspect of their interpretation of life.

The UK’s National Baby is back alongside Julian and Travis with more British right-wing adjacent content. In the first part of a two-part episode, Annie Kelly examines the rise in popularity of “home education centers” that first began appearing during COVID. At first marketed towards the anti-lockdown minded, these centers slowly evolved to address other areas of discontent with the British education system and gained traction among parents who felt abandoned by the conventional school system.

With hundreds of billions of dollars being invested in AI it was only a matter of time before parts of the 2013 film, Her, started to play out in real time. Liv brings Jake, Julian, and Travis multiple accounts of people falling in love with their AI companions and compares the accounts of people falling in love with their AI companions, and compares the relationship portrayed in the movie to those with a digital ScarJo of their own. They then explore how OpenAI allowed for this movie scenario to become a reality and the possible reasons behind turning to a digital partner when seeking companionship. Jake is intimately concerned.

Travis explores Jiang’s controversial predictions for the future as well as interpretations of the past that have fueled his explosive growth in popularity.

Jack returns to torment Jake, Julian, and Travis by ranting about the impending threat of AI via a classic story from WWI Britain. In 1917, Elsie and Frances took what appeared to be photos of each other interacting with fairies. While some immediately recognized the photos as fakes, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle was a true believer. Jack talks everyone through the history of the famous hoax, and speculates as to why it is that some so ardently believed in it. Jake, Julian, and Travis challenge themselves to figure out how the photographs were taken and offer insight into whether or not ruining skirts and stockings in creeks is a universal childhood experience across genders.

After Travis makes a quick tour through the conspiracy sludge surrounding the files, Jack reveals what the new documents reveal about Epstein’s ties to prominent researchers, Harvard, cloning fantasies, designer-baby schemes, and the strange overlap between scientific prestige and grotesque ideology. Liv unpacks how right-wing figures have tried to spin Epstein’s contacts with doctors and academics into anti-trans conspiracy bait, separating lurid fiction from what the documents actually show.

In 1981 an arcade cabinet began popping up all over the Portland area called Polybius…or at least…that’s the claim. Released by a company called Sinneslöschen, the game used a graphics rendering technology that was impossibly ahead of its time and men in black were reported to be monitoring the machines. Kids that played reported having migraines, hallucinations, and memory loss while others became vehemently anti-arcade. But, just as quickly as the machines appeared, those same men in black soon took them away. No one has seen one since. In part two of this two-part episode, Jack LaRoche delves into the possible origins of this internet legend. From a South American company commissioning cabinets to be built in Europe to uncovering a pedophile sex trafficking ring, the more Jake, Julian, and Travis hear, the more unbelievable the story becomes.

This week Annie Kelly continues to report on the “London Has Fallen” trend in video content by bringing us even more London-based fake TikTok news. She is joined by guest Katherine Denkinson, who walks us through a story she reported on with London Centric concerning a TikTok account that was posting fake migrant housing rage bait. While editing this episode, more information came to light, so we invited Katherine back to provide an update on the situation, including the motives behind the hateful content.

Jake is retiring from neo-nazi research, but before he gets back to giant squids and time travelers, he's leaving us with a parting gift: a deep dive into The Skokie Affair. In 1977 Skokie, Illinois had a population of around 70,000 and it is said that 40,500 of them were Jewish. It is for this reason that a thirty-two year old, half Jewish neo-nazi, named Frank Collin, sent the Park District of Skokie a letter asking for a permit to hold a Nazi Parade. The case that followed (Village of Skokie v. NSPA) went all the way to the US Supreme Court leading to a precedent that still stands today.

As Super Bowl LX rolls into Santa Clara’s Levi’s Stadium, Jake Rockatansky and Travis View are joined by sports writer Arif Hasan (Wide Left newsletter) to dig into one of the NFL’s strangest modern fan obsessions: the idea that the San Francisco 49ers are cursed by an electrical substation. Over the last decade the Niners have become infamous for suffering from brutal, momentum-killing injuries. This has fueled endless theories about potential reasons for the medical incidents that are causing heartburn among football fans in the Bay Area. Is it turf, training, recruiting strategy, bad luck, or something else? One rumor has dominated the online discourse: the idea that the Northern Receiving Station, right next to where the pro athletes train and play, is bathing players in “EMF” and making them more injury-prone. We trace how the theory travelled from locker room chatter, to online content creators, to a “board-certified quantum biology practitioner” until it finally had to be addressed by the 49ers administration and NFL’s chief medical officer. This is despite the fact that the idea doesn’t have any empirical support and it doesn’t even make sense upon examination of the timeline of the substation.

"Are you still talking about this Epstein guy?" Yes Donald, we are. This week Travis has prepared a slough of revelations from the latest DOJ document dump pertaining to nightmare creature Jeffrey Epstein. We’ll cover emails from the likes of Elon Musk, Christopher Poole (aka "Moot"), Richard Branson, and...Xbox? We think Travis may have listened to "Truly Tradly Deeply" one too many times because even he has taken up a little baking in this episode with some encouragement from Liv, Jake, and Julian. Jake makes the argument he should become pilled again. Subscribe for $5 a month to get all the premium episodes: www.patreon.com/qaa Produced by Corey Klotz. Theme by Nick Sena.

Devin Thomas O’Shea transports Travis to Milwaukee, 1932, where Thomas Pynchon’s newest novel Shadow Ticket kicks off with speakeasy intrigue, Depression misery, and a precision-engineered car bomb. Devin unpacks Pynchon’s characteristic hinge-of-history setting, when everyone’s forced to pick sides, as the book’s reluctant bruiser-turned-investigator Hicks McTaggart gets thrashed around by forces he can’t (and won’t) understand. Shadow Ticket’s paranoia, occult object-mysticism, and explosive politics connect to the real history of American labor violence: the Haymarket bombing and riot, the Bay View massacre, and the 1932 Ford hunger march. What can the novel, probably Pynchon’s last, teach us about our current strange moment in history?
