EPISODE 38 | The Dirty Dozen: Medical Misinformation Miscreants
For a more visual experience, see the video and dedicated playlist on our YouTube channel.
Just 12 people are responsible for the vast bulk of misinformation about COVID vaccines on social media. 12. Are they cuckoo banana pants true believers or just modern day snake oil hucksters endangering people to make a buck? We'll take a look at this dirty dozen and see what they say and speculate as to why they say those things.

Yesterday was the anniversary of humans landing on the moon. Or was it? A surprisingly large number of people have their doubts, and they also have all sorts of "proof" as to why the whole thing is hooey. We'll look at some of the deniers' claims as well as a few of the big players in the moon hoax industry.

The Georgia Guidestones: An NWO Billboard

EPISODE 36 | The Georgia Guidestones: An NWO Billboard
For images and many videos, check this episode and its dedicated playlist on our YouTube channel.
40 years ago, an anonymous group paid a lot of money to have an odd structure erected in a field in Northern Georgia - a series of stone megaliths with carved inscriptions in several languages. What the heck was it? A message for the survivors of a future cataclysm? A statement of intent for the New World Order? Plenty of people are more than a little freaked out by the Georgia Guidestones - it's been vandalized, had bits stolen and wingnuts of all types froth at the mouth when talking about this enigmatic monument to... whatever the hell it is.

A Field Guide to Aliens

EPISODE 35 | A Field Guide to Aliens
For images and many videos, check this episode and its dedicated playlist on our YouTube channel.
"The aliens" are not one group, but many, often with competing goals and motivations. Starting back in 1946, the Russians compiled a handbook for elite KGB and SMERSH agents on 58 separate alien races that visit our planet. Some are nice and some are not very nice at all. They all seem to think the Earth is a special place, however, even if many of them really just couldn't care less about us humans at all. Or so says an internet marketing guy who "found" a copy of this book and claims it's all real, including pictures of the aliens taken from movies and video games. One thing's for sure - it's a helluva story.

Many supposed abductees report scary experiences, but some have a counter-narrative: the aliens are friendly and very attractive and really, really into sex. A close encounter of the groovy kind often spawns a lucrative business and/or cult with the space sweetheart as the leader, of course. Embrace the Age of Aquarius with psychic powers, cosmic vibrations, walk-ins, star seeds and indigo children. There's a lot of money to be made on the peace train. All you need is love, and believers. Preferably believers with disposable income.

Kaspar Hauser: The Boy, the Syndrome (The World Is Weird 5)

EPISODE 33 |  Kaspar Hauser:The Boy, The Syndrome (The World Is Weird 5)
193 years ago today, a boy stumbled into the Bavarian city of Nuremberg. He was carrying two letters, could barely speak and no one knew where he had come from. Speculations flew about the mysterious young man. Was he of royal blood? Had he been raised by wolves? And was he telling the truth when he said someone wanted to kill him?
The strange and enigmatic tale of Kaspar Hauser leads us to language deprivation experiments through the ages as well as the effects of neglect on children. The world is certainly weird.

A View to a Vril

EPISODE 32 | A View to Vril
Did a 19th century novelist accidentally tap into a long hidden truth about an underground race of godlike beings who control an electrical fluid called the Vril? Of course not. But that hasn't stopped plenty of folks from claiming it as fact, including Theosophists, Nazis, New Agers, a race car journalist turned UFO church guru and psychologist Wilhelm Reich (kind of).  Just to name a few.

UFOs in Czecho

EPISODE 30 | UFOs in Czecho
Guest: Sam Beckwith, editor of Prague Pig
Today Conspiracy Clearinghouse celebrates one year of delving into the weird, so we thought we'd celebrate by doing a crossover episode with our sister podcast Prague Times. The UFO thing is not exclusively an American phenomenon, and even here in the Czech Republic, where we're based, there have been plenty of reports and reactions.
Prague-based journalist Sam Beckwith takes us through the most famous UFO sightings in the area (some going back centuries), how the Communists dealt with reports of strange craft, citizen-led initiatives, the Czech Silver Men, a UFO church and more. This is a special crossover episode with our sister podcast, Prague Times.

The Notorious M.I.B.

EPISODE 29 | The Notorious M.I.B.
One of the most sinister UFO-related phenomena - the Men in Black. Sure, they dress like the Blues Brothers, but they are super creepy and often menacing. And also pretty ineffective. And while they may have been created wholesale by a hoaxer, people have been reporting, and even photographing, them for years.
We're releasing this episode a day early to confound the MIBs.
