    You can also watch this podcast about right wing brainwashing tactics leaving the cult behind on youtube.You know what drives me up a wall? When people call conspiracy theorists stupid or crazy.Sure, some of them can come across as off the wall bonkers. Stage 5 clingers if you will. But truth be told?There's a lot of normal people that got caught up in conspiracy theory / right-wing garbage.Case in point—my guest's father.Jen Senko's father grew up a liberal. But over time we became addicted to right-wing radio (and coincidentally right-wing outrage.)Her documentary, The Brainwashing of My Dad, is an incredible sneak-peak into how right-wing conspiracy grifters operate. This documentary goes as far as the John Birch society in the 1950's.The John Birch Society played heavily into the anti-communism fears in the 1950's. As well as starting up conspiracy theories about a global one-world government, and on and on.Here are some of the things we talk about on the podcastEXPOSED!
