135 - Republic of Lies

Apologies for the late release! I would blame it on the holiday but that would be a lie.  We discussed Corinne's pick for Nonfiction November, Republic of Lies: American Conspiracy Theorists and Their Surprising Rise to Power by Anna Merlan. Most of the episode we spend talking about the depressing reality of how dangerous conspiracies have been allowed to flourish in the US, but we do get a little lighter near the end. The conspiracy chart by Abbie Richards we mentioned: https://conspiracychart.com/.  Next time we will be discussing The Old Place by Bobby Finger, the first book for December's prompt to Read a Book Published in 2022. You can find it at your local bookstore or library and read along with us. Website | Patreon
