Premium Episode 190: r/conspiracy Time Machine (Sample)

Conspiracy theories, melted online communities and cursed media — we pry open the cracks in consensus reality and journey into the hidden worlds below. The QAA Podcast is a mix of reporting, comedy, and history hosted by Jake Rockatansky, Travis View, and Julian Feeld along with co-hosts Annie Kelly, Liv Agar and Brad Abrahams. Formerly known as the QAnon Anonymous podcast.

News

On June 13th, 1996, the leader of a Long Island UFO group was charged with conspiracy to poison local conservative leaders with the most absurdly deranged of methods. His motive? Retribution for the political cover-up of UFO activity in the area. Brad Abrahams joins us to tell this bizarre and melancholy tale of the alien obsessed John J. Ford. We unravel if John really was criminally insane, or if he was entrapped for getting too close to a real life, albeit more terrestrial cover-up. Jake reads some powerful UFO poetry, Travis daydreams about arcane murder methods, and Julian cowers in fear from his secretly sadistic co-hosts. It’s time to squeeze out some phosphorescent toothpaste and enjoy an episode of the Long Island X-Files.

Premium Episode 241: Radium Toothpaste (Sample)

Though the “chemtrails” conspiracy theory has long been dismissed by scientists, aviation experts, and other skeptics, the Tennessee legislature has taken it very seriously. On April 11th, Tennessee Governor Bill Lee signed into law SB2691, which bans the ‘intentional injection, release, or dispersion’ of chemicals within Tennessee ‘with the express purpose of affecting temperature, weather, or the intensity of the sunlight.” Though the law doesn’t explicitly use the word chemtrails, it was inspired by chemtrail conspiracy theorists. 

On this episode we talk to independent journalist Teddy Wilson of Radical Reports about the anti-chemtrails bills in Tennessee and other state legislatures.

Anti-Chemtrails Laws feat. Teddy Wilson (E275)

Even in the early conversations discussing the rapid growth of artificial intelligence, there was always the fear that it could potentially fall into the wrong hands.  Unfortunately, the QAA team is here to tell you that it has.  It is definitely already in the wrong hands.  And that’s mostly due to the fact that sophisticated AI algorithms are available to anyone with an internet connection.  Conspiracy theorists have a brand-new tool at their disposal to further muddy the waters between what is real and what is not.  

But it wasn’t always this way.  Jake tracks the humble beginnings of AI interacting with social media users while Travis breaks down how it's been used to mess with our brains more recently.  One thing is clear however, AI is here to stay… and it has already replaced the QAA hosts.

Med Beds & Skye Prince (E274)

Nowadays, when a horrific tragedy occurs, you can pretty much guarantee that conspiracy theorists will flood the channels with wild narratives and flat-out disinformation.  This week, we’re breaking down the various theories surrounding the collapse of the Key Bridge, including a completely AI generated 911 call.  Later in the episode, Jake finds a conspiracy theory influencer with such a funny name, he just had to do a story starring him.
