Russian Troll Farm, The Podcast
This podcast is inspired by Sarah Gancher’s audaciously funny, deeply relevant, subversive play - Russian Troll Farm, set in 2016 at the Internet Research Agency in Moscow where Russian Trolls show up to work to wreak havoc on the U.S. Presidential election. Their job - to get Trump elected. In addition to chatting with the amazing cast and creators of the play, we’ll go beyond the stage to speak with cyber war experts regarding Russia’s ongoing and very effective efforts to create chaos and division in the U.S. The play, Russian Troll Farm, is about the 2016 election. The impact of Russia’s Trolls today is massively greater.
