The 9pm Conspiracy Nation with Ariel Bogle and Cam Wilson

As you all know, I am a lizard, and through the power of 5G and the implants which have been secretly inserted into you via chemtrails and the covid vaccine, or possibly by a UFOnaut which was probing you, I can control your mind.Well, no. But conspiracy theories do exist, and a new book explores the Australian flavour of these beliefs. My guests are the authors of Conspiracy Nation, journalists Ariel Bogle and Cam Wilson, and the book is available from Ultimo Press and all the usual places one buys books.In this episode we talk about why conspiracy beliefs are so appealing, the aftermath of the Wieambilla shootings, Agenda 21, Qanon, pseudolaw and sovereign citizens, the celebrity chef turned guru Pete Evans, and what to do if one of your friends starts heading down a rabbit-hole.Full podcast details and credits at:https://the9pmedict.com/edict/00252/Please consider supporting this season’s crowdfunder:https://the9pmedict.com/spring2025If you miss the deadline of 25 September:https://the9pmedict.com/tip/https://skank.com.au/subscribe/
