Description

We're smart and sensible people who don't believe in wacky conspiracy theories. But then again, there are a few that make us think...maybe? This week, we tackle the subject of conspiracy theories we can't dismiss completely even if we don't actually believe them.

Unless, of course, that's what we WANT you to believe, and this whole podcast contains hidden messages to the Illuminati, the Elders of Zion and the Reverse Vampires secretly controlled by the Rand Corporation plotting our next stage of worldwide control. WAKE UP SHEEPLE!

PS - We didn't plan for Episode 51 to be about Conspiracy Theories (like Area 51). It just kind of happened. OR DID IT?
