On this episode of The Karol Markowicz Show, Karol sits down with David Reaboi—policy expert and author of the upcoming book Viral Libels—for a deep dive into what he calls the growing crisis inside conservative media and political culture.

Reaboi argues that the rise of social media and the “podcastification” of politics has blurred the line between entertainment and reality—fueling conspiracy thinking, weakening critical reasoning, and reshaping how millions of Americans understand the world. From the influence of major podcast platforms to the normalization of once-fringe ideas, the conversation explores how we got here—and whether there’s a way back.

They also examine the role of foreign influence campaigns, the collapse of trust in institutions, and why viral misinformation may be more dangerous than ever in shaping public opinion. Can the conservative movement course-correct? Or are we entering a new era of information chaos?
