Becoming Candace (E335)
🕑 Added 2025-08-11 03:46:05 +0000 UTCThere isn’t yet a tariff on conspiracist narratives. So former Daily Wire podcaster Candace Owens imported one from France. Which is why she now finds herself the subject of a serious lawsuit filed by the French President Emmanuel Macron and the First Lady Brigitte Macron.
Owens used Instagram influencer aesthetics to recycle a 2021 theory for American audiences that was originally promoted by a French spiritual medium and spread through “Yellow Vest” and antivax networks. For some reason, Owens wasn’t satisfied with the genuinely odd history of the Macrons’ relationship (they met when Brigitte was married with children and Emmanuel was just 14, despite most American sources claiming they met when he was 15.) Instead she picked up the convoluted conspiracy theory that Brigitte is really her brother Jean-Michel Trogneux who became a trans woman and proceeded to assist with turning Emmanuel into an MKULTRA-controlled “Manchurian Candidate.” In Owen’s ludicrous tale, the Macrons then killed anyone who started asking questions about Brigitte’s past, Clinton-body-count style. But since this nonsense is powered by crude bigotry rather than any investigatory impulse, the evidence is unsurprisingly weak. Owens’ method of argumentation involves ignoring the fact that Jean-Michel Trogneux is clearly alive and a separate person, looking at real photos and declaring them fake, and birthday numerology.
Travis, Jake, and Julian unpack Owens’ past, the history of the conspiracy theory, how she promoted it through the 8-part series “Becoming Brigitte,” and the lawsuit that now threatens her independent media empire.

We’ve launched a new podcast miniseries network: Cursed Media. The very first Cursed Media miniseries is Science in Transition.
Science in Transition is an investigation into the intellectual origins of the contemporary right wing backlash against transgender acceptance. Through six deeply-researched episodes, hosts Liv Agar and Spencer Barrows unearth a bizarre coalition of well-meaning clinicians, aristocratic sexologists, militant feminists, right-wing culture warriors, headline-chasing journalists, and conservative politicians.

Subscribers to Cursed Media get access to three new podcast series per year, plus every episode of QAA’s existing mini-series (properly organized!)

As a French person I can tell you that everything Travis and Julian said about the French is true

“The perversions of some French people are so severe, they’re functionally disabilities. I’m glad I just have ADD and not French Inclinations.” absolutely amazing, I love it

further evidence buttressing the idea that Candace Owens is a shit-coating operative: last week a Las Vegas undercover sting arrested 8 people for sexual predation of minors, one of whom was Tom Artiom Alexandrovich aka the executive director of Israel’s National Cyber Directorate, who was then immediately released back to Israel before he could be prosecuted as part of this pedophile ring. mainstream media is completely ignoring this but you know who isn't? Candace Owens! so almost everyone who is aware of this genuinely disturbing fact is going to hear it from her or someone like her, once again tainting any reference to elite/Israeli pedophile rings by association to batshit idiocy, same playbook as "pizzagate." i gotta respect the NWO / illuminati / reptilians / whoever runs this hellworld, their info control game is on point.
aaaaa
Haven't listened yet but I did see Julian mad on twitter again. Hiiiii
