Gangnam Style and Flat earth

Well... I suppose that I will win a prize for "clickbait title of the year", but it is not clickbait. It is something that has been on my mind for a while though. Couple of things that I would recommend: The misinformation virus on BBC sounds which explores misinformation and treats some of the issues around the recommendation algorithm in a nice succinct way. The focus isn't really so much flat earth, but the principles apply. https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m000c9sm There is also a great episode on Behind The Bastards regarding Savitri Devi who has been instrumental in the development of the Neo-Nazi approach and metapolitics. As a warning if you are not familiar with the show: the host (Robert Evans) can be a bit crass/glib about some pretty horrendous stuff and he may not be your cup of tea. there are a lot of "in jokes" you need the back catalogue to really get. But he is a damn good journalist.
