Money, Misinformation, Crime & Conspiracy

Welcome to Season 8! This season we're doing things a little differently: each episode, we're going to talk to both experts and to friends of mine with lived experience in the same topic. Get to know me, get to know my buddies from my real life! Our first topic is monetizing fake news, data voids, and how ads work for Facebook and Google misinformation. Gaby talks to MIT Review reporter Abby Ohlheiser about how people make millions of dollars -- merch, speaker fees, Patreons, etc. -- by spreading misinformation. Then, Gaby interviews their friends Ali Segel and Melissa Stetten, co-hosts of the conspiracy theory podcast Web Crawlers, about ethically profiting from crime and conspiracy. Plus, why Flat Earthers are ~the worst!~

This episode includes discussion of suicide, child porn, cults, police, Alex Jones, transphobia, medical conspiracies, and conspiracies surrounding school shootings. Please take care while listening.
