Trumpspiracies: What a Tangled Web

9/10/2025
EPISODE 145 | Trumpspiracies: What a Tangled Web Ever since Donald Trump first decided to run for the highest office in the United States, he has promoted an astonishing number of conspiracy theories. It’s almost as if a New York real estate baron famous for lying to clients, not paying his bills and exploiting loopholes for his own benefit had learned, somewhere along the way, that “truth” is a slippery subject. And because he’s not a very deep thinker, he has, like many people, confused truth with facts. Like what we do? Then buy us a beer or three via our page on Buy Me a Coffee. Review us here or on IMDb.

Unwell and Unregulated: The Militia Movement

9/1/2025
EPISODE 144 | Unwell and Unregulated: The Militia Movement The United States has always had a certain comfort level with violence, or at least the idea of it. Throughout its history, groups of armed citizens will threaten to use, or actually use, force to get their point across, either to effect change or to prevent that from happening. But in the 1990s, something changed, and groups formed around new ideologies that sometimes had little to do with objective reality. The Militia Movement was mainly rural, white, far-right Christians who’d been nurtured on conspiracy theories and half truths which they had chosen to believe because these made some sort of emotional sense to them, and because they had an unerring sense that they were right and everyone else was wrong. And some of them were willing to go to great lengths to achieve their aims. This is the breeding ground for the modern conspirasphere. Like what we do?

EPISODE 143 | Paranoia Is Forever: Disney Conspiracies Walt Disney’s goal was to make the “Happiest Place on Earth”, and to delight and inspire both children and adults through the ages. Many would say he succeeded beyond even his own wildest expectations. Others might say that Disney is, and always has been, a place of evil.

Project 2025: The First 180 Days (World Is Weird 15)

7/30/2025
EPISODE 142 | Project 2025: The First 180 Days (World Is Weird 15) Donald Trump said he didn’t really know much about Project 2025 except that they sure liked him. And yet, of 313 specific Project 2025 initiatives, he’s already enacted 108 of them, and another 63 are actively in the works as of this recording. Quite a coincidence, wouldn’t you say? Project 2025 put a lot of importance of a sort of blitzkrieg if their boy won the 2024 election, a flurry of activity to define the first 180 days of his presidency and hopefully create so much change that, no matter what happens in future elections (if there are any) many of the changes they want to see happen will end up sticking around. That benchmark date was July 19. So, let’s look at Project 2025. What they say, and some of their own justifications for why they say it. And we’ll also see just how much Trump has actively assisted them in realizing their vision for a very different America than the world has ever seen. Like what we do?

Spirits in the Material World: Mediums and Spiritualism

7/16/2025
EPISODE 141 | Spirits in the Material World: Mediums and Spiritualism The late 19th and early 20th were rife with claims of contact with spirits of the departed, and plenty of people made a pretty penny convincing the grieving or the curious that they had the right stuff, the special connection to the Other Side. But it has continued past then, and even today there are those who would prey upon people to make a fast buck, supercharging the woo space in the process. We’ll look at mediums, magicians, seances, channelers and more, including some of the tricks these con artists use to ply their ignoble trade. And we’ll also examine what’s up with the Ouija board.

The Fermi Paradox: Here Comes Nobody

1/29/2025
EPISODE 129 | The Fermi Paradox: Here Comes Nobody If we are not unique as a species, an intelligent one that builds civilizations, then there must be lots and lots of other civilizations out there in the galaxy and the rest of the universe beyond. But if so, where the hell is everybody? That’s the question at the heart of the Fermi Paradox. And this has kicked off a chain of reasoning and speculation that crosses disciplinary boundaries, and lets us start to envision, not just what might be out there, but where we ourselves want to go as a global civilization.

Estimated Prophets: Nostradamus & Cayce

1/15/2025
EPISODE 128 | Estimated Prophets: Nostradamus & Cayce Even though almost none of the things that prophets say will happen actually do, we still persist in believing in the capability anyway. We do not like to change out minds very much. Two of the biggest prophets that still hold sway today over Western culture are Nostradamus and Edgar Cayce, and we’ll take a look at each one in turn.

1/1/2025
EPISODE 127 | Cognitive Biases: Thanks, Big Brain! (Because Reasons 12) This episode looks at the final two categories of biases in the Cognitive Biases Codex – what we tend to do when the information we’re presented with doesn’t contain enough meaning, and the brain’s tendency to favor quick assessments over complete ones, because it feels it need to act quickly.

Cognitive Biases and the Brain: Thanks, Evolution! (BR 11)

12/18/2024
EPISODE 126 | Cognitive Biases and the Brain: Thanks, Evolution! (Because Reasons 11) The first of two episodes looking at cognitive biases - this one at how memory works and how we prevent input overload by filtering out information. Hopefully, this will give us some insight into why people think they way they do. The primary source material for this is the Cognitive Biases Codex, created by Buster Benson and John Manoogian III, as used by the EU's Marie Curie CogNovo program for Conspiracy-Theories.EU.
