It's a Conspiracy!
A rash of recent "scientific" studies about what makes conspiracy theorists tic have been hitting the news lately.
Why?
Well, we could say it's a conspiracy to try and debunk conspiracy theorists and conspiratorial thinking, but then that just proves we're conspiracy theorists prone to conspiratorial thinking. As if that's a bad thing.
John nearly falls for an Ethereum scam, but escapes at the last minute. Probably because he used his conspiratorial thinking to question the scam, natch!
Kanye West (or is that Yeezus) tweets, "Question Everything". Hmm... great minds think alike. ;-)
An A.I. bot named Norman that's a real psycho, which leads us into a discussion of robot cognition, and life, the universe, and everything. The future's gonna get weird.
UFOs, Area 51, Exorcism, Time Travelers, Vampires...
We discuss our favorite moments from Art Bell's seminal COAST TO COAST AM. Called "The Godfather" of late night paranormal and conspiracy talk radio, Bell had a huge influence on a generation of fringe-dwellers and truth-seekers - us included. He will be missed.
In an extended "What's the Word on the Street?", John walks us through the possibility that the Syrian poison gas attack was a false flag operation, allowing the US and its allies to execute a decades-old strategy to overthrow nations and shape U.S. foreign policy in the middle east.
April Fools and Happy Easter!
Back from a much needed Spring Break, John and Adam return to the weird, wacky, and wondrous world of conspiracy and the paranormal to learn that THERE IS NO HELL.
And Jesus apparently died in vain.
That's one small step for a man, one giant leap for Flat-Earthers. Mad Mike Hughes' hilarious and dangerously idiotic attempt to prove that... he's Evel Knievel? Super Dave Osborne?
Adam experiences a little post current events synchro-mysticism.
Sci-fi writer accurately predicts the iPhone.
In the second half, John addresses the recent QAnon controversy brewing on the Inter-tubes. Has the Q psyop been exposed? Are the geniuses behind Cicada 3301 puzzles involved somehow?
We'll just let the Gracie Allen and George Burns of conspiracy explain it for you. They should really take their act on the road.
And finally, we tie all of this together by preaching the importance of media literacy, a mantra of ours, particularly as it pertains to the new conspiracy world order.
