Where There's Woke

  • Summary

  • Every single time the right, or even center-left, goes ballistic over a "woke" controversy, the slightest bit of investigation shows the scandal is almost entirely bogus. This is not a new phenomenon; it dates back decades. It's an intentional tool used to protect the powerful and preserve the status quo, while further scapegoating and otherizing those who push for political progress. This podcast digs into not just today's fake scandals, but those of yesterday and yesteryear. The terminology has changed some, but the pattern has not. Listen in as host Thomas Smith shines a light on the panic, the fragility, the overreaction, and the lying that ignites 'Where There's Woke.'

    The 4th part of our series Jon Ronson's Things Fell Apart Falls Apart

    It's time to move on to... episode 3 of season 2 of Things Fell Apart. This episode features the worst example of both sidesing I've ever heard. It's astonishing. An interracial family was driving in the woods to go camping during the pandemic. A group of angry right wing racists, with guns and dogs, follows them and cuts down trees to block the road and prevent their escape. You might be wondering how in the world someone could "both sides" this event. Welp, Jon Ronson finds a way. And it's... oof. Just yikes.

    The 4th part of our series Jon Ronson's Things Fell Apart Falls Apart

    Jon Ronson's grand theory of Judy Mikovitz is that she was a normal, accomplished scientist, until she was "arguably mistreated," after which she became the kind of person who would be the subject of Plandemic. This final episode completely disproves this theory. It also shows how incredibly dishonest Judy has been about her arrest, and why it was actually entirely reasonable that she was held for 5 days. (and, it was more like 4).

    Also, make sure to not fall for the fake endings.

    Part 3 of of our series on Jon Ronson's Things Fell Apart.

    On the podcast Knowledge Fight, Jordan asks Jon Ronson a good question: if there were a bunch of people involved in this bogus Judy Mikovits study, why was she the only one who had the cell line? Jon had no answer. Jenessa does. How the hell did everyone miss this?
