You found us! Thank you! Unless you don’t like us. In that case, may a deity turn your heart, and if they cannot turn your heart, may they turn your ankles so that we may know you by your limping. Seriously though, this podcast is a labor of love by mostly one person that works too damned often during the week and one other person with a social schedule unthought of in the world the first person grew up in. We do in fact focus primarily on right-wing political media influencer entertainer Candace Owens. Our main focus is to break down mistruths and outright lies that are spoken and written by Candace and possibly guests on her show. As of this writing, various sources record that Candace has about 1.4 million viewers on YouTube. Possibly more since her YouTube show is also produced as a listenable podcast. Regardless, Candace is a rising force in the alt-right movement, she does have some charisma and media savvy, and a large amount of money behind her. All too often, people let her statements go or they simply don’t fact check her, and thats where we come in. We hope you enjoy the show, and please excuse the incompleteness of things at the moment. This is a work in progress, but we are doing our best. Feel free to reach out with concerns.
