Let's share podcasts that cover these dangerous lunatics. Please add more in the comments!

Adventures in HellwQrld - one of the best sources for keeping up to date with qanon. It took me a little while to get used to the hosts, but they've grown on me. They're really good at sticking to the facts and reporting on current qanon news.

Qanon Anonymous - better hosts but these days they're branching out into covering other cults and conspiracy theories, which doesn't interest me as much. I still keep it on my playlist and listen to the episodes that catch my attention.

The Necessary Conversation - two liberal siblings talk current politics with their right wing parents. The mother is more like qanon adjacent; the father is an angry, rabid Trump supporter. One of my favorite podcasts.

The Q-Dropped Podcast - interviews with people who have lost loved ones to qanon

I Don't Speak German - thoughtful, intelligent discussion about the far right. Unfortunately, they've stopped making new episodes for the time being; but they've said they're going to come back and have been releasing episodes from the Patreon archive in the meantime. Worth listening to back episodes; I didn't even find them until after they stopped recording but have enjoyed it.

It Could Happen Here - daily podcast that covers a variety of current events through a left wing lens; many episodes cover the far right and the problems they cause. From the creators of Behind the Bastards; many of the hosts are young but have intelligent perspectives. Also available in a weekly roundup with fewer ads.

This is a story from my dad.

During a recession he applied for a small personal loan for a few thousand dollars from his bank. He had excellent credit, was a homeowner, stable job, yadda yadda. His loan approval should've sailed through easily.

But because of the recession, the bank was trying to be extra careful about loaning out money. A loan officer called him to review his paperwork, and asked him what he was going to spend the loan on.

Dad was pissed. He said it's a PERSONAL loan, and it's none of their business what he's going to do with it. It's personal.

The bank dude was really nice, he explained the situation and said he's just doing his job. He had to fill out paperwork, one of the spaces required that he writes what dad was going to do with the money.

Dad said, "Ok, when I get the money, I'm going to take it all out of the bank in cash, go home, open my window and throw it all outside."

He found out a few days later he was approved for the loan.
