Summary

Jonah teams up with Mike Rothschild (who, shockingly enough, is not a member of the Rothschild family) to discuss conspiracy theories and the fallacies that undergird them on today's Remnant. In a conversation that touches on wackiness ranging from Pizzagate to the Rothschilds' supposed lease on Israel, Jonah and Mike try to understand why conspiracy theories formulate and what makes people subscribe to them. What do pro-Trump conspiracy theories indicate about the state of our institutions? Why is antisemitism such a pervasive evil? And  a general decline in in social media to connect crazy people to crazy ideas in ways that underground bookstores never could.

for.

And then we ran into this problem of this global conflagration over Israel and

anti-Semitism and all the uginess on campuses. So I just want to be clear

1:00.9

to everybody not only was the book we're going to talk about,

1:04.1

written long before this happened,

1:06.1

but the plan on having today's guest was planned

1:08.5

before this happened.

Thank you for having me. I'm glad we can take a light-hearted approach to the horrifying events of the last month.

1:39.2

Yeah, I mean we don't, we can take a lot of road change to semitism. I don't know how light
