Knowledge Fight is apodcast dedicated to analyzing and critiquing episodes ofAlex Jones'sInfoWars shows. The podcast was created in January 2017. It is hosted by the former stand-up comedians Dan Friesen and Jordan Holmes, both of whom live inChicago,Illinois.[1][2] In each episode, Friesen plays clips of noteworthy moments from one of Jones's shows, which are followed by Holmes' reactions.[3][4] The majority of episodes relate to modern day Alex Jones, but the podcast has gone as far back as the late 1990s in its coverage.[5]
Notable events covered on the podcast include theSandy Hook Shooting,[6] theBoston Marathon Bombing,[7] theIraq War,[8] and theJanuary 6th Insurrection.[9]
Along with Jones, Friesen and Holmes occasionally cover other conspiracy figures they consider to be relevant to their main subject on their 'Wacky Wednesday' episodes.[10] 1990s radio conspiracy theoristBill Cooper[11] and current new-age alien conspiracist 'sweary' Kerry Cassidy are recurrent subjects.[12]
The podcast has covered two of Jones's movies,The Obama Deception,[13] andEndgame: Road to Tyranny,[14] in detailed miniseries. A less formal series of episodes focus onTucker Carlson's shows onTwitter/X,[15] including his interview with Russian presidentVladimir Putin.[16] The legal depositions in Jones's multiple court cases also have extensive coverage. In 2023, Friesen started a newsletter calledThe Stackies as a place to write longer articles relating to the podcast's topics.[17]
The podcast series has been used by lawyers researching Alex Jones in relation to his various Sandy Hook lawsuits. Friesen has been called upon as an expert in Alex Jones and his shows by plaintiffs' lead counsel in Texas, Mark Bankston, because of the podcast series.[6][18] Bankston has appeared as a guest on Knowledge Fight multiple times.[19]
