Podcast: Conspiracy Nation

by Will on August 24, 2009

I was able to persuade Steven Harris of Mary Washington College – one of my favorite undergraduate professors – to record a podcast on the Obama “Birther” movement. We also covered media fragmentation, the Sixties, and crack cocaine conspiracy theories. Apologies for the poor audio quality; the whole thing is after the jump.

Very good discussion. You guys covered a lot of ground. Conspiracy is indeed seductive. It makes you important and special, and explains away why you don’t have all the good things you are sure you should have.
