Who’s to blame for The Exorcist? This week, The Alarmist (Rebecca Delgado Smith) is tackling the iconic 1973 horror classic The Exorcist. Who’s to blame for the demonic possession of innocent little Regan MacNeil? We have some ideas! Sure, there’s Pazuzu, the ancient demon. But, who invited him in? Is this your classic Ouija board opening the human world to the spirit world? Did a societal shift away from faith and the traditional nuclear family have something to do with it? Or perhaps our modern disbelief in the supernatural is to blame? Fact Checker Chris Smith and Producer Clayton Early join the conversation. Happy spooky season Alarmy! Join our Patreon!

Who’s to blame for Puerto Rico’s taxation without representation? This week, The Alarmist (Rebecca Delgado Smith) delves into the island of Puerto Rico. Considered unincorporated US territory, the residents have American citizenship and are subject to US law and taxes. But, no right to vote in the US congress! Why not?! Is this the ripples of British Colonialism at play? Do selfish economic interests have something to do with it? Or perhaps the conveniently undefined relationship status is advantageous.
