Ever wonder why women get caught up in conspiracies, how anti-vax attracts moms, or where tradwives came from?

With expert guests and unexpected angles, each episode unravels the cultural currents that fuel these gendered narratives, connecting the dots between memes, misogyny and misinformation gone wild.

"Just like she does on Unladylike, she’s using an intersectional lens to discover how the first conspiracy theories were started by women and why they have grown into what they are today. If this kind of history interests you, you’ll love the first two episodes."

"This podcast is fascinating, frustrating, enlightening, and disheartening. It forces the listener to reconsider, to think, and to acknowledge everything that seems normal, weird, and wacky in new lights. It is a testament to research, conversation, and the hope of humanity. By openly talking about the good and the bad we are brought and wrought, Conspiracy, She Wrote lures the listener into a new mindset. Grab your red string, and go see for yourself."

"For fans of comedy, sardonic humor, and caustic comebacks, Conger discovers dark humor in the history of conspiracy theories. Her brand of humor can elicit smirks, chuckles, and even belly laughs. Even after one episode, it's obvious that Conger is having fun, and that spirit of delight infects her listeners."
