This week on Yeah Nah Pasaran! we talk to Susannah Crockford [X/Twitter]. Susannah is an anthropologist who specialises in environmental and medical anthropology and the anthropology of religion. Susannah has also produced a limited-edition podcast called Miss Information, ‘about the ways online misinformation and conspiracy theories infiltrate wellness communities and religious paces’. We spoke to Susannah about misinformation, conspiracies, US politics and more, with particular reference to:
