Q-Anon... The Good, The Bad, and The Utterly Ridiculous (Professor Robert Guffey Interview)

  • Summary

  • Robert Guffey is a well-respected author, researcher, professor, and lecturer at California State University--Long Beach, and a historical-scholar of conspiracy theories. Today, he's going to give his insight into the Trump-loving quagmire known as Qanon.

    This is actually Part 2 of a conversation Jim and Robert had several months back for Episode 19 (The Craziest True Story You'll Ever Hear). And if you love wild, mind-bending true stories, we'd strongly suggest you go back and listen to Episode 19 (a fan favorite), but it is certainly not a prerequisite for listening to today's discussion.

    Today's topic is all about Qanon, and correpsonds with the release of Robert's newest non-fiction book "Operation Mindfuck" available now at OR books. Robert gives a basic overview of what Qanon is, and gives insight into how he thinks so many people with good intent can get led into so many crazy conclusions. Once you listen to the interview, we'd highly recommend you go pick up a copy of "Operation Mindfuck" to read Robert's more deeper analysis.

    You can also find Robert's non-fictional analysis of conspiracy-theories "Cryptoscatology" on Amazon, as well as find his articles debunking conspiracies like Qanon on Salon. Additionally, he's the author of two excellent, genre-bending works of fiction, which you can find on amazon at:

    "Bela Lugosi's Dead" ...Part detective story, part Hollywood ghost story, and part pulp adventure novel.

    and

    "Widow of the Amputation and Other Weird Crimes"...four novellas that explore the madness of murder through the warped lenses of urban noir, science fiction, horror, and fantasy.

    Please pick up one or all of his books today!
