Conspiracy theories are nothing new and have been in the social discourse of our society for centuries but on the internet board 4chan an anonymous poster started the firestorm that would be known worldwide as the Qanon conspiracy theory. In this episode we'll dive into the roots of Qanon and do our best to explain how it grew to be so loud and violent. We'll also take a look at conspiracies throughout history and try to understand the psychology behind conspiracy theorists. Hosted by Daylen Turk, Kara Thibault, and Curtis Medina.
