In episode 81, Tim Tangherlini from the University of California Berkeley’s Folklore Program discusses his research into how conspiracy theorists interpret and use what they believe is “hidden knowledge” to connect multiple human interactions that are otherwise unlinked ... and how when one of these links is cut, they're less able to hold together a coherent story about it. His open access article “An automated pipeline for the discovery of conspiracy and conspiracy theory narrative frameworks: Bridgegate, Pizzagate and storytelling on the web” which he published with Shadi Shahsavari, Behnam Shahbazi, Ehsan Ebrahimzadeh, and Vwani Roychowdhury on June 16, 2020 in the journal PLOS One.  Picking Apart Conspiracy Theories - Tim TangherliniPicking Apart Conspiracy Theories - Tim TangherliniPicking Apart Conspiracy Theories - Tim Tangherlini Picking Apart Conspiracy Theories - Tim TangherliniPicking Apart Conspiracy Theories - Tim TangherliniPicking Apart C
