Over the past several years, The Daily Show contributor Jordan Klepper has been forced to listen to Trump supporters spout the most absurd conspiracy theories imaginable in the parking lots of MAGA rallies across the country. Now, in a new podcast from Comedy Central and iHeartPodcasts called Jordan Klepper Fingers the Conspiracy, the comedian is finally taking the time to explain why they’re so wrong.
You can watch an exclusive video version of the first episode, which premieres tomorrow across all podcast platforms, below.
“This podcast is an opportunity to take the nuggets of chaos I discover on the road, put them under a microscope, and see where they came from, why they’re so compelling and if these conspiracy nugs may just destroy our democracy,” Klepper told The Daily Beast via email this week. “As shocking as some of the ideas are that I come across in the field, it’s been eye opening to see the historical precedent for a lot of this thinking. Where else can you talk to a medieval academic about the legacy of the ‘Nancy Pelosi drinks baby blood’ viewpoint?”
