Interview • Mike Rothschild: Qanon Expert Talks With Ex Conspiracy Theorist

Hello Initiates, and welcome to Some Dare Call It Conspiracy.In this episode, we are joined by journalist and conspiracy culture expert Mike Rothschild for a deep and wide ranging conversation on how conspiracy theories have moved from the fringes into the mainstream.Drawing on decades of research and observation, Mike breaks down the mechanics of belief. We explore everything from the strange persistence of the Iraqi dinar scam to the long standing myth that powerful banking families secretly control the global economy. Along the way, we look at how financial illiteracy and uncertainty make these ideas feel convincing and accessible.Brent also reflects on his own past experiences with conspiratorial thinking, offering insight into the emotional pull these narratives can have. This is not just about misinformation. It is about identity, community, and the sense of belonging that conspiracy theories can provide.A major focus of the episode is QAnon. Rather than treating it as a single theory, we examine it as a flexible belief system that adapts to its audience. Mike explains how it taps into real world anxieties, especially around money and stability, and turns them into simple explanations that feel empowering.We also trace the evolution of conspiracy culture over time. From pre 9 11 communities to the rise of internet forums, and into the mid 2010s where these ideas became increasingly politicised. The discussion highlights how conspiracy thinking became more closely aligned with political movements, particularly during and after the 2016 presidential campaign of Donald Trump.The COVID 19 pandemic is explored as a turning point. A period of global uncertainty that allowed conspiracy theories to spread faster and reach further than ever before. What was once considered fringe began to feel normal, with serious real world consequences.Mike also shares insight into the events surrounding January 6, and the dangers that arise when conspiratorial belief begins to influence political action and public behaviour.Finally, we look at how to respond. Rather than simply debunking claims, the conversation focuses on understanding why people are drawn to these ideas in the first place. Clear communication and an awareness of the psychological drivers behind belief may be the most effective way to reduce their impact.This is a grounded and honest conversation about the persistence of conspiracy theories and the very human reasons they continue to thrive.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/some-dare-call-it-conspiracy--5932731/support.Some Dare Call It Conspiracy is an award-winning podcast that examines conspiracy theories, misinformation, and moral panics — not from the outside, but from the inside.The show is co-created and hosted by Brent Lee and Neil Sanders, both former insiders in the conspiracy world who spent years immersed in conspiracy belief, alternative media, and grassroots activism before walking away.

Interview • Rob Jacobson: Former Info Wars Editor Exposes Alex Jones

Hello Initiates, and welcome to Some Dare Call It Conspiracy.In this episode, we speak to former Infowars employee Rob Jacobson, who gives a rare and deeply personal account of what life was really like inside one of the most infamous conspiracy platforms in the world.Rob spent over a decade working alongside Alex Jones, and what he reveals is a workplace driven not by truth or investigation, but by outrage, performance, and relentless content production. From the outside, Infowars presents itself as an alternative media outlet. From the inside, Rob describes something far more chaotic and calculated.We explore the culture behind the scenes, including the hostile and often abusive working environment he experienced. Rob shares his account of antisemitism within the workplace, the pressures placed on staff, and the circumstances that led to his sudden dismissal after 13 years of service.A major focus of the conversation is how content was actually created. Rob walks us through a system built on clickbait, emotional manipulation, and whatever would capture attention in the moment. The goal was not accuracy. It was engagement. And that approach had serious consequences, particularly in the way tragedies like Sandy Hook were handled.Rob also reflects on his involvement in the Sandy Hook defamation trial, where he chose to speak to the importance of evidence and accountability. His perspective offers a clear look at the real world impact of conspiracy narratives, not just as ideas, but as forces that shape behaviour and cause harm.We spend time examining Alex Jones himself. Rob describes a figure who understood more than he let on, yet continued to platform and tolerate harmful views within his organisation. The result is a portrait of someone operating at the centre of a system that blurred the line between performance and belief.The episode also traces the shift within Infowars from broad conspiracy content into more defined political alignment. As figures like Roger Stone entered the picture and connections to the Trump era grew, the platform moved toward a more openly partisan stance, with clear incentives driving that change.On a personal level, Rob shares his journey away from conspiratorial thinking. From once believing in many of the ideas promoted on the platform to now rejecting them, his story is one of reassessment, reflection, and rebuilding a relationship with evidence and critical thinking.This is a candid and often difficult conversation about what happens behind the curtain, and what it takes to step away from it. It is also a reminder of the real human cost of conspiracy culture, both for those targeted by it and those caught up inside it.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/some-dare-call-it-conspiracy--5932731/support.Some Dare Call It Conspiracy is an award-winning podcast that examines conspiracy theories, misinformation, and moral panics — not from the outside, but from the inside.The show is co-created and hosted by Brent Lee and Neil Sanders, both former insiders in the conspiracy world who spent years immersed in conspiracy belief, alternative media, and grassroots activism before walking away.
