Today we’re moonwalking straight into the chaotic world of Apollo 11 conspiracy theories — where facts are optional, confidence is abundant, and someone somewhere is insisting the shadows “just don’t line up.”Although millions watched the moon landing live, doubts started swirling almost immediately. Then along came Bill Kaysing in 1976, brandishing his book We Never Went to the Moon: America’s $30 Billion Swindle like a tabloid headline written during Mercury retrograde. With one extremely shouty title, he helped launch the conspiracy movement into the stratosphere.In this episode, we unpack how the media fanned the flames, why the 1970s were ripe for a hoax explosion, and how wildly confident claims take hold of public belief. We explore the history, the hysteria, and the hilariously bold certainty of people who’ve never set foot on the moon — or a film set, for that matter. Did we really land on the moon? Nikki and Cheryl are here to deliver the RECEIPTS, PROOF, TIMELINES! Topics Covered: • Apollo 11’s early doubters • Bill Kaysing’s “did he really say that?” arguments • Why conspiracy theories thrive in chaotic times • The media’s role in shaping hoax culture • How narratives stick and spread • Why media literacy still matters (and always will)If you’re interested in more true crime deep dives, hit subscribe and ring the bell to stay updated.🎧 New episodes of Killers, Cults & Queens every week — hit subscribe and join us for more true crime, cults, and creepy tales.👑 Hosted by Cheryl Hole and Nikki Druce.Got a theory?

Panic, confusion, and a scandal that would see the show banned for over a decade.Join us as we unpick how Ghostwatch blurred the lines between fact and fiction, why it terrified an entire nation, and how it paved the way for the modern horror genre. From Michael Parkinson’s chilling final moments to the real-life consequences for viewers, this is the story of the hoax that went too far.Expect spooky nostalgia as we explore the show that made Britain believe in the supernatural — if only for one terrifying night.🎧 New episodes of Killers, Cults & Queens every week — hit subscribe and join us for more true crime, cults, and creepy tales.👑 Hosted by Cheryl Hole and Nikki DruceThis weeks episode is sponsored by London Nootropics.

But was this the work of the paranormal, or something far more human?Join Cheryl and Nikki as they unpick the chaos that gripped the nation — from the terrified Hodgson family to the investigators from the Society for Psychical Research who risked their reputations chasing ghosts. Along the way, they’ll separate fact from fiction, uncover how The Conjuring 2 turned this haunting into Hollywood legend, and ask the ultimate question: was Enfield really haunted, or just the perfect media storm?Expect eerie happenings, questionable recordings, and a few very British ghosts of Christmas past…👑 Hosted by Cheryl Hole and Nikki Druce🎙️ New episodes weekly — subscribe for more dark and campy dives into true crime, pop culture, and scandal.This week's episode is sponsored by Rupaul's Drag Race: Match Queen, the new mobile game where you can match puzzle, slay on the runway and be a queen.
