Bro you are nailing it lately. I don’t know how you churn out so much excellent and nuanced content. I’m an academic fairly versed in the big theoretical issues you address but I learn something new - or a new way of articulating something old - every time I listen. Thank you.

-racer- · May 2026

love the podcast mostly, but just have to point out that three white dudes referring to Ronan Farrow as « the reporter who launched the Me Too movement » is a pretty wild retelling of history, not to mention a bold erasure of the two female reporters whose concurrent reporting can also be said to have « launched the Me Too movement, » not to mention Tarana Burke, the Black woman to whom the #MeToo hashtag is credited, or the thousands of women whose stories fueled the movement. i mean, wow. i really expected better from people whose insights i generally trust and respect.

I’ve been listening to this podcast since 2020.. the year (I believe) of its inception. What’s kept me listening to this podcast all these years is that these three men are covering what I know to be a necessary niche of information.. as a person who’s survived religious and spiritual abuse, as well as the influence of two parents who were heavily overtaken by fringe health disinformation. From my perspective, Conspirituality’s beat is necessary. I just wish it wasn’t so damn obsessed with listening to itself talk. These guys, unfortunately, continue to create a tone, vocabulary, and pseudo-academic perspective that is more interested in making them sound intelligent to themselves than it is in serving the people who actually need their subject matter. It’s as if they are constantly trying to impress an invisible professor (I’m not sure who, but probably somebody who gives them a gold star every time they use a 10 dollar word) rather than ask the question: “who are the people who actually need our work? How can we make ourselves accessible and understandable to them?” I think this podcast is good. But it won’t be great until they learn one of the first rules of marketing: it’s not about you. I am finally moved to write this critique after 6 years of listening to this podcast because I feel that this podcast needs to reach a wider audience now more than ever. It’s truly needed. I hope they figure it out.

I came across one of the hosts on another podcast I love, and I’m so glad I found this podcast as a result. It’s truly excellent - I’ve been binging both older and newer episodes, and I find it very entertaining and insightful. I can see that a few negative reviews are from people who advocate for ideologies that this podcast speaks against, which is to be expected. But to help combat some of their criticisms, I do think this podcast could present a little more thorough evidence for their arguments. I personally already know that the evidence is there so it doesn’t bother me, but I think doing more deep dives into the evidence would help counter some of the arguments that the other side presents (as this is pretty easy to do, the evidence is plenty). Instead, a lot of the arguments are stated like they are obviously true, which they ARE - but some people need things spelled out a little more than others :-)

I used to love this show, but the blind spots and lack of attention to intersectionality are becoming glaringly obvious as you move away from the focus on conspirituality.

Grimkee · Aug 2026

I used to like this show quite a bit, and listened casually for several years. However, in episode 322.The Cult of Spiralism the hosts discuss how they use AI in the creation of the scripts. I do not support the use of AI in any capacity. I have unsubscribed and will not be listening further. Sad, but this is a firm boundary for me.
