Of the many battlefields on which U.S. troops and intelligence operatives fought in Afghanistan, one remote corner of the country stands as a microcosm of the American campaign: the Pech and its tributary valleys in Kunar and Nuristan. The area’s rugged, steep terrain and thick forests made it a natural hiding spot for local insurgents and international terrorists alike, and it came to represent both the valor and futility of America’s two-decade-long Afghan war.

Its messaging can seem cryptic, even nonsensical, yet for tens of thousands of people, it explains everything: What is QAnon, where did it come from, and is the Capitol insurgency a sign of where it’s going next? Mike Rothschild, a journalist specializing in conspiracy theories, has been collecting their stories for years, and through interviews with QAnon converts, apostates, and victims, as well as psychologists, sociologists, and academics, he is uniquely equipped to explain the movement and its followers.

The Comprehensive Encyclopedia for QAnon
Revisado: 01-13-23
An excellent listen that covers QAnon from its infancy to the post-Trump era. Probably like many listeners, I discovered Mike Rothchild's work debunking QAnon when my family member fell down the Q-rabbithole. Mike & others in the disinformation beat have down unbelievable work (mostly with little to no accolades or fanfare,) to cover QAnon accurately & the worst offenders/boosters/influencers/victims of the movement.

Interesting story with real wiretap audio included
Revisado: 01-07-23
amazing story, but the narration was a little stilted. Joe would be giving quotes from a two-sided conversation but due to his somewhat monotone delivery, it could be hard at times to keep up. despite that, this includes quite a few audio clips from real wiretaps with Pistone (Donnie Brasco) and mobsters and it worth the listen.

Full of information, Andrew is great
Revisado: 12-13-22
Andrew pushes back against claims of our "Christian founding" with facts & history in this book, and he does some crucial work pushing pack against the growing rightwing authoritarian and (sit down for this one) Christian nationalism in our country. Excellent work and a great listen. I will say the orator did use some bizarre inflection at some points, but other than that this audio book was phenomenal.

Seth Andrews idolized Rush Limbaugh. He listened to Glenn Beck. He read Ann Coulter. He watched Fox News. He was an evangelical Christian once tethered to right-wing media, which constantly warned of an attack on American values by liberals and secular humanists. Today, Seth is a liberal and secular humanist. This audiobook explores the Fox News culture, which both reflects and informs American conservatism, shaping public opinion on important issues like religion, government, race, foreign policy, war, protest, LGBT rights, and the Constitution.

In sharing his stories, Atlas reveals the philosophy by which he lives. Like Teddy Atlas - inimitable, tough, honest, and wise - this book inspires. It is about so much more than boxing. It is a story of overcoming hardships, of compassion for those in need, of tremendous personal integrity, and of personal and professional triumph.
