About this listen
Sharp, empathetic and unsettling, Outlawed asks a vital question: if so many people are turning to fake law in search of justice, what has gone wrong with the real thing?
Outlawed traces the hidden connective tissue between courtroom theatrics, viral traffic stop videos, fraudulent "common law" courts, and acts of deadly extremism. From unhappy New Zealand ratepayers to North American farm foreclosures to Australian pandemic protests, from German coup plots to suburban family courts, Outlawed reveals how legal conspiracy theories spread, mutate, and radicalise ordinary people.
Blending true crime, investigative reporting, legal analysis and cultural critique, Outlawed shows that pseudolaw is not fringe. It is a commodity sold by charismatic gurus. It is a performance staged for online audiences. And it is a symptom of a deeper crisis: collapsing trust in law, democracy and institutions.
The stories revealed are both bizarre and consequential. Pseudolaw has migrated from the fringes to the mainstream, spreading online alongside conspiracy theories, wellness grifts, and populist discontent. It must be understood to be stopped.
