Episode Details

Todd examines America’s growing addiction to conspiracy theories through the Lindsay Clancy case, the assassination of Charlie Kirk, and the approaching 25th anniversary of September 11. He argues that distrust of government, media, and powerful institutions can be justified without treating every tragedy as an elaborate cover-up. Todd explores how personal experience, true-crime culture, pride, community, entertainment, and the appeal of secret knowledge can pull people toward predetermined narratives, then urges listeners to test claims against evidence and focus their energy on the real work of defending truth, liberty, and their communities.
