Project Pegasus - Mars and Beyond!

EPSIODE 85 | Project Pegasus - Mars and Beyond!
The United States has secret bases on Mars, which they may or may not share with aliens. This base is there, but also not there, because it might only exist in the future, accessible using time travel technology, or maybe in a bubble universe. People, such as a young Barack Obama, are sent to this base to perform various tasks, like fighting a vast war in space. This is a huge secret, only now coming to light thanks to a few brave "whistleblowers". But their stories don't always match up, and untangling the weird from the weirder in the Project Pegasus narrative can be a difficult process.

Sound Advice: A440 vs. A432

EPISODE 84 | Sound Advice: A440 vs. A432
Guest: Andrew Currie, Owner & Lead Sound Engineer of Mechanizer Studios
Today, most musicians use 440Hz as the reference pitch for orchestras, but they use to use all sorts of different ones, especially 432Hz. Wow, that’s interesting, I guess. But even something as seemingly innocuous as international musical pitch standards can be fair game for the conspirasphere.
Sure, maybe the switch happened because of the physical properties of musical instruments as they warm up. Or maybe it was all part of a plan to separate humanity from the healing frequencies of the universe, making us both more aggressive and more docile. And maybe this evil plan was hatched by none other than Reich Minister of Propaganda for the Nazis, Joseph Goebbels.

Sport seems to almost lend itself to rumor, innuendo and conspiracy thinking with accusations of wrongdoing, curses that plague a team for years and even the occasional crossover of the geopolitical and athletic worlds.

Reptiles of the Mind - The Reptilian Conspiracy

EPISODE 82 | Reptiles of the Mind - The Reptilian Conspiracy (Big 'Uns 7)
The conspirasphere thrives on the idea that things are not what they seem to be on the surface. And for some, the very people around us are not what they seem. Why, they might not even be human, at all.
Some of the supposed “people” you see are actually shapeshifting aliens, possibly from somewhere in Orion, maybe from inside the hollow earth. In their true form, they are humanoid reptiles, and they thrive on pain and suffering. These loathsome creatures are either part of an ongoing, yet secret, struggle for control of our world, or they have already taken control of the reins and are farming us for their own purposes. You can see proof of this in some video footage where famous people’s eyes temporarily look like a lizard’s before snapping back to normal.
Yes, as we begin the fourth year of Conspiracy Clearinghouse, we will finally take a look at the Reptilian conspiracy theory, which was actually the inspiration for starting this podcast in the first place, but it was just too big and too weird to tackle back in 2020. You could argue that the previous 81 episodes have been preparing us for this one.
This is our third anniversary episode!

EPISODE 81 | The Logos Prophecy
Guest: Martin Treanor, author of The Logos Prophecy (Fall of Ancients 1)
What if all the conspiracy theories were true? That's what writer Martin Treanor used as the starting point for an ambitious trilogy of novels that starts in the present day (with a conspiracy theorist and a science guy), then travels back 13,000 years, and finishes thousands of years in the future. 
We talk about this project, as well as some of Treanor's other work, his ideas on the conspiracy mindset, the New World Order, his pal Sal, tea and more.

Khazar Love Triangle

EPISODE 78 | Khazar Love Triangle
An obscure 10th century confederation of Turkic-speaking peoples between the Caspian and Black Seas gets transformed through the power of imagination into anything and everything. The Khazars become symbols for a number of claims, including being the origin of the Cossacks (or at least some of them), the real Jews, fake Jews and more. Today, the Khazar Myth is often used to bolster antisemitic tropes, support pseudohistorical narratives and even justify invading another country.

Monster Mash - Werewolf? There Wolf!

EPISODE 77 | Monster Mash - Werewolf? There Wolf!
Tales of shapeshifters go back many moons in human history, and wolves seem to be especially in the spotlight. When people get accused of this, they often find themselves in serious trouble. And once in a blue moon, someone claims that they are actually a werewolf. This is often a mental disorder known as clinical lycanthropy.
And then there are those today who think that they really are part animal, in some way, or part hobbit or part unicorn or even part alien. And they like to talk to one another on the internet.
