I was hyping the podcast in a c/politics thread when someone asked for a link for a pizzagate debunking.

They made the interesting point that most debunkings are merely “there is no basement”. I must confess. I find this argument pretty compelling, but are there any deep-dives into the conspiracy origins from KF. Due to what I confessed, I never really followed the details of this one. It seemed to morph into QAnon conspiracies rather seamlessly. It seemed to be all claims, no known damages.

What immediately came to mind is Episode #39 in which Dan does a deep-dive into Jack Posobiec and analyzes the Comet Ping Periscope video that Owen Shroyer reports about. (No, I didn’t have the episode number off the dome.)

But that is more Jack Posobiec is full of shit because pizzagate is full of shit. I love this episode. But the periscope video is more about two infowariors’ total inability to “act natural”. But it’s not really a pizzagate debunking, I suppose. Still comedy gold in my opinion.
