Reading Roulette: Choose Your Own Adventure Podcast readingroulette Reading Roulette is a Choose Your Own Adventure literary podcast, covering the classic children's books from the 80's and 90's Explicit Tales From The Rabbit Hole Mick West Tales from the Rabbit Hole is an interview-style podcast focusing on people whose lives have been affected by the conspiracy theory rabbit hole. Guests will include both former and current believers in a variety of conspiracy theories, as well as debunkers, skeptics, and the investigators of those theories. I’m Mick West, a debunker. I wrote the book Escaping the Rabbit Hole – How to Debunk Conspiracy Theories using Facts, Logic, and Respect. This book came from my experiences running Metabunk – a debunking forum. Over the years I realized simply presenting corrections to people is not enough. We need effective communication, and we can’t do that if we don’t listen to and talk with each other. I’m hoping this podcast will help bridge that gap. Explicit Bumming with Bobcat Bum Wine Bob Bum Wine Bob is the everyman's drinking man and bum wine connoisseur.
