How did the MAGA and the wellness worlds begin to collide? The pandemic and Trumpism have a lot to do with it. Co-hosts of the podcast Conspirituality Derek Beres and Julian Walker join Francesca to explain the similarities between fascism and some new age spiritual and health communities. They're obsessed with individuality, freedom, gender norms, and willing yourself to believe pretty much anything so long as it goes against the establishment. From anti-vax misinformation spreaders, to anti-science healers, "insurrectionist influencers" who cheered on the capitol riots, and of course Joe Rogan you’re about to meet some unsavory characters. Plus a *BONUS BISH* for patrons about how QAnon infiltrated wellness spaces and how to extract a friend from the anti-vax worm hole.
