EPISODE 111 | Us vs. Them: Antisemitism Goes to School Guest: Scott Shay, president of Chai Mitzvah and author of Conspiracy U Hamas forces swept into Israel on October 7, 2023, committing atrocities and taking hostages. Literally the next day, American student groups were blaming Israel. Protests on campuses began to multiply and today the situation seems out of control and pro-Israel and pro-Palestine groups go at one another while school administrations react heavy-handedly. What's behind all the shrill rhetoric? Scott Shay's 2021 book Conspiracy U looked at antisemitic trends on American campuses, and saw an uptick in sales at the end of last year as some of the things he'd talked about seemed to be coming to the fore. He shares some of his thoughts as to what is going on today on American universities. Like what we do?

EPISODE 110 | How to Be a Fascist People use the term "Fascist" a lot these days, but do they really know what that means? Fascism is a very specific combination of ideas and goals that occurred within very clear historical and philosophical contexts. This is a look at where Fascism came from, Mussolini's rise to power, and variations and offshoots of the first Fascist ideologies. And while not everyone you don't like is a "Fascist", there are some actual fascists out there, and they are not being all that quiet. Like what we do?

EPISODE 109 | What's in a Name? The Shakespeare Authorship Debate Guest: Scott Jackson, Mary Irene Ryan Executive Artistic Director of Shakespeare at the University of Notre Dame, current vice president of the Shakespeare Theatre Association (STA) and incoming president, actor, director and Shakespeare scholar William Shakespeare wrote at least 36 plays, 154 sonnets, two narrative poems and a few shorter poems - more than 884,000 words total, more than 1700 of which he invented. But just who was this guy? Was he really "the Man from Stratford", or merely a pen name for... well someone else? We look at some of the more popular Anti-Stratfordian theories and also look at why some people seem hell bent on proving that someone else, anyone else, actually wrote all that stuff.

EPISODE 107 | Traces of Reality: Abstract Art and the CIA (World Is Weird 13) Guest: Mandy Theis, founder and director of the School of Atelier Arts, academic director and professor at the Florence Academy of Art Maybe you've walked into a museum or gallery and seen a big white, blank canvas, or a huge circle, and thought, "So, this is art, eh?". But why is there so much of this abstract stuff around? The answer might be surprising - because the CIA promoted it as part of the Cold War. And then it rather got away from them. Today, the art market is the most unregulated in the world, and aesthetics and skill take a back seat to branding. Like what we do?

EPISODE 106 | Suffer the Children: Pizzagate, Wayfair & the Seeds of QAnon "Without a clear indication of the author's intent, it is difficult or impossible to tell the difference between an expression of sincere extremism and a parody of extremism." In the world of the internet, this is known as Poe’s Law, and it’s especially applicable to the weird narrative Gordian Knot known as Pizzagate. The adage applies not just to how absurd some beliefs are, but also to the arguments made by people who hold these beliefs. First formulated in 2005 by Nathan Poe, it builds on a 2001 quote by Alan Morgan called Alan’s 2nd Law of Newsgroups, which states, “Any sufficiently advanced troll is indistinguishable from a genuine kook.” And that is certainly the case for the wild story that “a hipster-heavy pizza parlor” (as they put it on their website) in the Chevy Chase neighborhood of Washington D.C. is not just a fun family place with pizza, ping pong and live music, but the nerve center for an diabolical child trafficking ring that operates out in the open because they are protected by highly-placed pedophiles in the Democratic party. As an article on Cracked.com puts it, “This is supported by lots of very stupid evidence”. The stakes of the fake narrative are so high that it’s become more than just true believers review bombing the place. Workers have been harassed and, on December 4, 2016, a heavily armed man entered the restaurant and started firing guns. The story of Pizzagate is the story of how the conspirasphere went from harmless kookery to being actually, physically dangerous. TRIGGER WARNING: Some pretty disturbing things will be talked about in this episode, so if the subject of child sexual abuse and trafficking is deeply uncomfortable for you, perhaps you should not listen. I mean, it should be uncomfortable to anyone, but you know what I mean. Like what we do?

EPISODE 101 | Panic! at the Disco: The Jan. 6 Event (World Is Weird 12) On January 6, 2021 at 12:53 EST, a mass of people overwhelmed police on the west side of the US Capitol Building in Washington DC. At 2:11, a window was broken, and they entered the building. What followed was a bizarre scene, with some happy to just wander around, while others had more active plans. When it was over, 5 people were dead, 138 law enforcement personnel were injured (15 needing hospitalization), and an untold number of civilians were also injured. Eventually, more than 1100 people would be charged with various crimes committed that day. What exactly happened here? Whatever you want to call it, it was fueled by conspiracy theories and conspiracy thinking. And it also engendered CTs of its own. The conspirasphere had finally run amok. Like what we do?

EPISODE 97 | Üst akıl: Totally Turkey Turkey is a place with a complex history and a diverse population, which can lead to a sense of uncertainty and instability. Conspiracy theories that offer simple explanations for complex events and interactions, seem to take hold easily there, especially lately. This can make it difficult for people to distinguish between reliable information and propaganda and can contribute to the spread of false information and conspiracy theories. All told, Turkey seems to be particularly susceptible to the spread of conspiracy narratives. Which is a darned shame, since the country is absolutely fascinating, with a long and rich history stretching back more than 40,000 years, fantastic food, a varied landscape and incredibly hospitable people.

EPSIODE 95 | Bodyguard of Lies: The Ghost Army & Wartime Deception (World Is Weird 11) More than 100 million soldiers took part in WWII, but not all of them were fighting with guns. There was obviously a lot of administration and infrastructure to deal with, there were codebreakers and spies, and there were even some who engaged in secret deception to trick the enemy. This episode is not abouts ghosts, but rather the Ghost Army. No, not a battalion of unstoppable undead like Aragorn brings with him against the forces of Mordor, but a dirty tricks tactical deception unit the Allies deployed in Europe near the end of the war to fool Axis commanders. Because, as the saying goes, all’s fair in love and war. This episode is partly a cynical attempt to lure in military history fans, but these are also really interesting stories. And you might consider them to have been, in fact, conspiracies, ones that were successful, by and large. Like what we do?

EPISODE 94 | Peek-A-Boo: Project Star Gate The US military heard the Soviets were working on creating psychic spies, so they started their own program, which would, after many name changes, get dubbed Project Star Gate. This would attract cranks and flim-flammers of all kinds over its 25 year run, resulting in not much useful intel but inspiring some participants to make a number of outlandish claims and starting various conspiracy theories about remote viewing techniques.

EPSIODE 91 | Tartaria Sauce : The Great Tartarian Empire and 15-Minute Cities One day, I wondered if there were any conspiracy theories about architecture, which is something I am quite keen on, so I fired up the laptop and did a Google search, and sure enough, there is. One. One that’s weird and funny and just a little bit sad. While researching this, a new conspiracy pops up on the interwebs, this time about urban planning, another subject I‘m very interested in. And so, between the Tartarian Empire/Great Mud Flood theory, and the newly minted freak out about 15-minute cities, it felt like this episode of Conspiracy Clearinghouse was sort of writing itself.

EPISODE 89 | JBS BS: The John Birch Society History is full of those who became tyrants or aspired to become one. Even in a country like the United States in the fairly enlightened 20th century, there were those who thought that, well, actually, their vision of how things should be was the best one, and that they should probably just be in charge. And if you opposed them, they said all sorts of disagreeable things about you. And sometimes they just outright lied. Welcome to the John Birch Society, where anything and everything goes in the life and death struggle against international Communism. And they are kind of the foundation of today's far right.

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. Like what we do?

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. Like what we do?

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.

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.

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.

EPISODE 76 | Klown Kar: The KKK Can KMA (World Is Weird 8) We're always products of the time and place we live in, so when a Southern group of friends got together in the wake of the American Civil War to start a fun club, it’s really not that big a surprise that it quickly transformed into the largest racist organization in the country. We’re talking about the Ku Klux Klan, a terrorist group that has been responsible for literally thousands of deaths and violent acts over the years. But the Klan is not just one thing. It’s had at least three different incarnations and today is a motley collection of power-hungry criminals and grifters who may or may not believe some of the inflammatory and even outlandish narratives that try to bind the turbulent world of white supremacy into a cohesive whole. As always, though, they can dress up in white robes with silly pointy hoods all they want, but they can’t stop being who they really are, deep down inside. Very often, their ambitions and appetites end up being their undoing. We look at the three different incarnations of the Klan, how a movie helped revitalize them, the time Superman made them laughing stocks, when Beulah Mae Donald took them to court, some of their symbols, some of their more egregious crimes, and even a Klan-sponsored effort to take over a Caribbean island.

EPISODE 75 | Org Chart: Insidious Institutions Men with power meeting behind closed doors - an idea that makes some people pretty suspicious. Perhaps memories of old star chambers, which carried out extra-judicial proceedings, are what worry people. Or maybe it’s just an inherent distrust of powerful people plotting to influence the world and reshape it to their own benefit, which just might also mean to the detriment of the rest of us, the 99%. We’ll look at four real gatherings and groups, and one proposed international alliance that already has a few real-world components - the Bohemian Grove, Brookings Institution, the Bilderbergers, the Trilateral Commission and CANZUK, including the Five Eyes & Pine Gap.

EPISODE 73 | My Chemtrail Romance Planes go by in the sky and leave white trails behind them. Some of us see this and think, wow, ice crystals. Other think it’s a nefarious evil plot to take away our minds or our virility or something else. As soon as someone starts talking about chemtrails, you sort of know where you stand with them.

EPISODE 70 | Monster Mash: Vampires With Halloween just around the corner, it’s natural to start think about the supernatural. While superheroes and characters from TV and movies are increasingly popular costumes, it’s very often the classics we turn to when choosing what to dress up as for All Hallow’s Eve. Vampire is still a popular choice, and the idea of undead blood-drinking fiends frightens some and titillates others. And some people even say that they are, in fact, vampires. Like what we do?

EPISODE 68 | Persistent Illusion: Time Travellers We are accustomed to thinking of time as a fourth dimension, though Einstein says space and time are really, when you get down to it, the same thing. As he once said, “The distinction between the past, present, and future is only a stubbornly persistent illusion.” This makes us wonder – will it one day be possible to travel in time the same way we do in space? If so, one can only assume that, if time travel exists at some future date, there must be some people from our future walking around today, in our present. There have certainly been plenty of claims to that effect. Like what we do?

EPISODE 67 | Pixels & Paranoia: Video Game Conspiracies From its humble beginnings, the video game industry has expanded from cabinet arcade games to PCs and home consoles. Two-thirds of adults in the US and three-quarters of children play them. It makes more than the film industry, which got to around $21 bn last year; and music, which made almost $26 billion in 2021. Globally, gaming hit $192 bn in 2021 and is expected to break $200 bn this year. And it should come as no surprise that there have been rumours, urban legends, controversies and even outright conspiracy theories about video games. Games that kill, or carry a curse, or control people's minds, or contain hidden truths that some would prefer remained hidden. Like what we do?

EPISODE 65 | Acronyms for Satan: CERN, LHC, WWW & More Ever since its very beginning, wild speculation has circulated about the LHC at CERN. That it causes shifts in reality, leading to the dreaded Mandela Effect. That it actually sucked the earth into a black hole (where we now presumably reside). That it creates antimatter. That it is a secret temple to the dark lord of the underworld, SATAN, and it trying to open a portal to the Netherworld. That its spacetime bending properties were harnessed by American Democrats to steal the 2020 presidential election (this despite it being in Switzerland). So it’s time now to take a look at this organization and its complex at the edge of Geneva, and the 27km in circumference tunnel ring and see what it is and what they get up to in there.
