#178: 2022 midterms and the chaos that wasn't (feat. Alyssa Kann and Max Rizzuto)

Max Rizzuto and Alyssa Kann are researchers at the Digital Forensic Research Lab (DFRLab) who Jared used to work with. They join the show to talk about the anti-climactic passing of midterm elections. Is election denialism still as potent as it was in 2020? Were fears overblown? Have threats to democracy receded? They argue no to all of the above, even if things went better than expected. If everyone on this episode sounds tired, it's because they are exhausted from working around the elections.Follow Max Rizzuto on Twitter: @maxbrizzuto<br/>Follow Alyssa Kann on Twitter: @AlyssaKann <br/><br/>Max's favorite thing: The first Fast and Furious movie posted as a Twitter thread (since struck down for copyright violations)<br/>Alyssa's favorite thing: "The day I fell into a crevasse"Support the show
