Was Gloria Steinem, the face of the Women’s Liberation movement and founder of Ms. magazine, in league with the CIA to neutralize second-wave feminism? That’s what a small group of feminists (and Betty Friedan) alleged in 1975—but why? Cristen unravels the kernels of truth and valid suspicions regarding her CIA connection and path to becoming a feminist celebrity and activist icon from the infighting and state surveillance-induced paranoia that made the plot seem so plausible.

In the late 1960s, the FBI began recruiting female informants across the country to spy on the growing Women’s Liberation Movement. But why? And what happened when the feminists realized they were being watched? Cristen unravels an often overlooked chapter of the Bureau’s infamous COINTELPRO counterintelligence program when then FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover was convinced that the movement for gender equality was either a Communist front or a pipeline to violent radicalism. For Women’s Liberation leaders and activists, that real surveillance seeded legitimate fears of infiltration that curdled the movement from within.

Far-right ideologies rely on a conspiracist worldview of puppet masters secretly orchestrating any social movements or culture shifts deemed threatening to white, male power. Jews are their go-to “puppet master” scapegoats, but as evidenced by manifestos left behind at two mass shootings this year, feminists (which is really just shorthand for Western white women) have ascended the villainized ranks to enemy number two. Alex DiBranco of the Institute for Research on Male Supremacism deconstructs the framework of antifeminist conspiracism, its evolution from men's rights grievance to top-tier organizing belief and intersections with gender ideology and cultural marxism conspiracies.

Tulsi Gabbard’s profile has been defined by two things: political shape-shifting – social conservative to Democratic darling to Bernie booster to MAGA makeover – and accusations of being a puppet for strongmen leaders like Putin, Modi and Trump. Cristen unravels why the only throughline that makes sense of her improbable path is Chris Butler, the cultish founder of Science of Identity Foundation (SIF), an offbeat Hare Krishna sect Gabbard grew up in. Because based on recent reporting from the Washington Post, it appears that the man Gabbard has called her guru dev, or divine teacher, was secretly steering Gabbard as a proxy for his own political power.

When deadly floods hit Texas Hill Country in 2025, chemtrails believers and cloud-seeding conspiracists baselessly blamed it on scapegoats “playing God” with the weather. Cristen unravels the post-pandemic mainstreaming of weather control conspiracism, from fringe theories about jet contrails to politicians like Marjorie Taylor Greene legitimizing the misinformation with congressional hearings, and states outlawing geoengineering. With an incoming El Niño forecasting extreme weather ahead, prepare for more conspiracies and climate denial.Sources: conspiracyshewrote.com/episodesInbox: conspiracyshewrote@gmail.comInstagram: @unladylikemediaWebsite: conspiracyshewrote.comPatreon: The CabalConspiracy, She Wrote is an Unladylike Media production created, hosted and written by Cristen Conger.

After unknowingly showing up at a Capitol insurrection, ethnographer Noelle Cook spent years embedded with the women arrested for January 6th — not grifters and influencers, the true believers. Her new book, The Conspiracists: Women, Extremism and the Lure of Belonging, follows two: Yvonne, a self-proclaimed starseed and sovereign citizen who considers the J6 pardons divine vindication, and Tammy, who showed up for the community and never really left. As Noelle details to Cristen, the paths that led them there map the pandemic’s alt-health tipping point, conspirituality’s empowerment trap, and how conspiracy functions as a coping mechanism and connection machine for middle-aged women that culture makes invisible.Sources: conspiracyshewrote.com/episodesInbox: conspiracyshewrote@gmail.comInstagram: @unladylikemediaWebsite: conspiracyshewrote.comPatreon: The CabalConspiracy, She Wrote is an Unladylike Media production created, hosted and written by Cristen Conger.

The DOJ’s Epstein files named names. Lots of them. But can a network of powerful elites really be held accountable? The Epstein Files Book Club cohosts comedian Jena Friedman (@jenafriedman) and journalist Elise Hu (@elisewho) join Cristen to sort real conspiracy from distracting theories, confront the messy lines between victims and perpetrators, and figure out what we non-elites can actually do about it.

Jeffrey Epstein didn't invent his victim pipeline from scratch. Modeling agencies had already built one. For decades, agencies like Elite Model Management legally controlled girls' money, housing, and immigration status while conditioning them to smile through whatever came next. Cristen unravels the modeling agency system’s role in Epstein's operation, from the executives who normalized access to underage girls to accomplices like Jean-Luc Brunel whose MC2 agency Epstein personally bankrolled, to the loyalists who kept the referral pipeline open until weeks before his death. But don't count out the survivors and models who are fighting back, even if the justice system won't.Sources: conspiracyshewrote.com/episodesInbox: conspiracyshewrote@gmail.comInstagram: @unladylikemediaWebsite: conspiracyshewrote.comPatreon: The CabalConspiracy, She Wrote is an Unladylike Media production created, hosted and written by Cristen Conger.
