The Tuskegee Study - The World is Weird 1

Episode 06 | The Tuskegee Study - The World is Weird 1
The tale of a 40-year clinical study with overtones of both race and class, shows just what some people are willing to do once they have otherized their fellow humans. If they're willing to do that, the reasoning goes, what else might they be willing to do? This builds distrust, which feeds conspiracy theories.
This is the shameful story of the Tuskegee Study of Untreated Syphilis in the Negro Male. A true thing that happened, because the world is weird.

44 for 44 - The Obama Conspiracies (Thanks, Obama!)

Episode 05 | 44 for 44 - The Obama Conspiracies (Thanks, Obama!)
The 44th US President sure had a lot of theories about him. Was he really a cocaine-fueled, murdering, gay, inter-dimensional, Satanic, Mars-visiting lizard who could control the weather?
Every leader of a country, or anyone that much in the public eye, is sure to engender a number of conspiracy theories. But the 44th president, Barack Obama, sure seemed to get more than his fair share of them. Some were almost certainly externally expressed fears of black retribution, or good old fashioned racism, while others were clearly just slanderous disinformation by those who opposed him politically and philosophically.
But, boy oh boy, some of the rumors were real doozies.

Saddam’s Stargate and Taskforce 20

Episode 04 | Saddam's Stargate and Taskforce 20
Host: Derek DeWitt
The United States went into Iraq to stop Saddam Hussein from using and/or developing Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMDs). They meant chemical and biological weapons, but what if the WMDs were something else? What if Hussein had found ancient alien technology that allowed him to communicate with an ancient race of extraterrestrials who live on a hidden planet in our solar system and was planning on bringing them here to Earth? What if he had a stargate, and the invasion was actually to shut it down?
Hadn't thought of that one, had you?

A Cavalcade of COVID-19 Crackpottery

Episode 02 | A Cavalcade of COVID-19 Crackpottery
The year 2020 has started off being defined by the global spread of the COVID-19 human coronavirus, but it's not just the illness that's spreading - misinformation, disinformation, misconceptions and outright lies are also on a worldwide tour aided and abetted by social media.
We'll take a look at some of the more pervasive ideas out there, tracing them back to their sources like good epidemiologists, and also think about ways we can inoculate ourselves and others against the noise.

Glass Onion - The Beatles Conspiracies

Episode 01 | Glass Onion - The Beatles Conspiracies
The Beatles made more of an impact than perhaps any other band in history. Their highly engineered later albums, use of backmasking and decidedly quirky senses of humor seem to leave trails of breadcrumbs for people to follow into deeper, hidden truths about them. 
You may have heard of the Paul is Dead theory. But what about the Paul is Alive one? Or that they plotted to blow up their former drummer Pete Best? Or that they never actually broke up? Or that they never really existed at all? 
So pack your revolver and hop in your yellow submarine as we take a magical mystery tour past Abbey Road and travel through yesterday and today because we just can't let it be.
