The AI Powered Christian Dominionist Convention feat. Dr. Matthew Taylor (E375)

The AI Powered Christian Dominionist Convention feat. Dr. Matthew Taylor (E375)

Jack LaRoche and first-time contributor Trey Grace go undercover on the National Mall for the May 17th Christian nationalist event Rededicate 250. This White House-linked rally features prayer, fasting, patriotic worship, shofar blasts, AI George Washington, and rumors about whether Trump might appear in person (he didn’t.) What begins as a sweaty field trip through Freedom250 pageantry turns into a tour of the increasingly fused worlds of Christian nationalism, the New Apostolic Reformation, Silicon Valley-backed prayer tech, AI evangelism, and Trump-era state religion cosplay. Along the way, the episode digs into America Prays, Pray.com, Peter Thiel-adjacent religious technology, Brian Alarid’s dream of praying for every person on Earth by name, Lou Engle and Dutch Sheets’ spiritual warfare rhetoric, and the “Appeal to Heaven” flag as a Christian nationalist signal. Religious studies scholar Dr. Matthew D. Taylor joins to explain how NAR networks, charismatic prophecy, and Trumpist politics have converged into a movement that sees itself not as lobbying the state, but as reclaiming it for God. Also: The Great Controversy, the Freedom Truck, the “algorithm of liberty,” and the ballroom theology of Eric Metaxas. Matthew D.

AI Slopaganda (Premium E338) Sample

Welcome to the age of AI slopaganda, where the synthetic videos are nearly indistinguishable from the real, the real videos are getting more suspect, and everyone is one fake Instagram Reel away from becoming the Facebook boomer they once mocked. Liv examines the newest iterations of AI-generated political propaganda, including Trump posting a fake video of himself throwing Stephen Colbert in a dumpster, “Swifties for Trump,” Mike Collins’ AI Jon Ossoff, Spencer Pratt’s Batman campaign ads, Iranian Lego anti-Hegseth videos, fake Netanyahu death images, deepfakes targeting women in politics, the Dean Phillips/Biden robocall, Gavin Newsom’s JD Vance couch slop, and Cuomo’s anti-Mamdani AI ads. We explore how “satire,” misinformation, engagement bait, and campaign strategy are collapsing into one ugly sludge pile.

The Legacy of Knowledge Fight feat. Dan Friesen (E374)

For nine years and over 1100 episodes Dan Friesen and his co-host Jordan Holmes helmed the podcast Knowledge Fight, where they unpacked and analyzed the neverending flood of nonsense that flowed from the mouth of Alex Jones through his media empire Infowars. After it was announced that Alex Jones’ ownership of Infowars had ended, even if his career as a broadcaster had not, Knowledge Fight decided to call it quits earlier this month, ending a podcasting run that began in 2017. We speak to Dan about what it’s like to spend nearly a decade covering Alex Jones, why people are still drawn to Jones, the value of debunking, The Onion’s deal to take over the Infowars brand, and how his brain is healing now that he no longer listens to unhinged rants every week. https://www.showmestateofmind.com/ Subscribe for $5 a month to get all the premium episodes: www.patreon.com/qaa Check out our new podcast series network Cursed Media!

70s Christian Exploitation Double Feature Movie Night (Premium E337) Sample

In this Movie Night episode, Travis, Jake, and Jack descend into the sweaty church-basement panic of 1970s Christian exploitation cinema with a double feature: If Footmen Tire You, What Will Horses Do? (1971) and A Thief in the Night (1973). These were not slick Hollywood productions, but they reached millions through church screenings, youth groups, libraries, and religious distribution networks. If The Footmen Tire You used anti-communist nightmare imagery to warn Christians that godless radicals were coming for their children, their churches, and their wives. A Thief in the Night turned rapture theology into an indie horror movie, terrifying generations of evangelical children with the fear of waking up to find their loved ones vanished and the Antichrist running the United Nations. We talk about Ron Ormond’s journey from swamp monsters and stripper movies to Christian gore, Estus Pirkle’s apocalyptic anti-communist sermons, the birth of rapture horror, and the power of low-budget religious filmmaking. https://archive.org/details/if-footmen-tire-you-what-will-horses-do-1971-dir.-ron-ormond-final-reconstruction-hd-267159565 Subscribe for $5 a month to get all the premium episodes: www.patreon.com/qaa Check out our new podcast series network Cursed Media!

Demons, Disclosure, & The Death of David Wilcock (E373)

It’s Happening!! Disclosure is here! Brad is back to report everything you need to know on the topic from his deep underground military base. This episode weaves three stories into a terrifying mandala of our rapidly accelerating cultural madness. The administration's flaccid “disclosure” document dump, the mainstreaming of UFOs-as-biblical demons from the highest echelons of government, and the tragic death of UFO guru David Wilcock—the missing link between these cultural artifacts. This episode has it all: fuzzy dots, pastors meeting intelligence officers in a secluded Airbnb, cabals murdering UFO investigators, boxes of dildos, and Jake getting spanked (potched).
