If Bigfoot is real, what exactly is it? Is it simply an elusive, distant cousin of us humans, a creature who occupies an evolutionary branch in our family tree, and who chooses to live in the deep wilderness, far away from human population centers? Or is Bigfoot something else altogether: a creature with extraterrestrial origins? In this episode Phil interviews a guest who has developed a new, radical explanatory model of Bigfoot (and other cryptids) in an effort to better map observed behaviors...

Have we really been to the moon? History books tell us that on July 20, 1969, NASA’s Apollo 11 mission landed mankind on the moon for the first time. But one out of ten Americans say “no way!,” and do not fully believe the official record of mankind’s greatest achievement. Could the Apollo moon missions 11-17 be an elaborate hoax? If yes, why would such a hoax be perpetrated, and who would benefit? Or are conspiracy theorists simply…well…throwing rocks at the moon?

What really happened to Princess Diana? Many people still share their where-were-you-when-you-heard stories about the passing of Diana, Princess of Wales, on August 31st, 1997. Rumors of a conspiracy emerged almost immediately after reports of her tragic death due to an automobile accident in the Pont de l’Alma tunnel along the River Seine in Paris, France. Did the driver of her black Mercedes simply have an accident while trying to avoid the paparazzi? Or was her death a carefully planned final...

Sometimes called "America’s Stonehenge" the Georgia Guidestones is a large granite monument located near Elberton, Georgia – about 90 miles east of Atlanta. Ten guidelines / instructions (commandments?) for humanity are inscribed on the stones in multiple languages. Are they a creepy, in-our-face proclamation of the New World Order, or just the creation of a strange group of people with weird ideas and a bit of money?

On July 17, 1996, TWA Flight 800, a 747 departing from JFK Airport in New York, bound for Paris, exploded in midair just east of Long Island, killing all 230 passengers and crew on board. Shortly afterwards, witness reports started to emerge about a streak of light, possibly a flare, a firework, or perhaps even a missile, was seen streaking through the sky and impacting the aircraft causing a massive fireball. Was it a terrorist attack? A Navy accident? The NTSB and FBI have said no. But that's ...

The Montauk Project has been described as a "project that involved advance technological research, mind-control, weather control, genetic manipulation, sexual magick ritual, hyperspace research, alien communication, esoteric weaponry, time travel and interdimensional exploration. It was perhaps the largest secret project that ever existed up to that point in time." In part 2 Brett and Phil get into more of the why's and how's of the project itself, and discuss just how likely the stories are tru...

Conspiracy Theorists allege that from 1968-1983 military mind control research took place at (beneath) the Camp Hero facility at Montauk Point, New York. That the research at this location opened and exploited “portals” and/or “rips in the space-time continuum” to communicate with extra-terrestrial intelligences. Montauk is, in fact, at the hub of uncountable conspiracy theories including mind control, teleportation, time travel, alien intelligence, government cover ups, black-ops kidnappings, m...

According to the conspiracy theory, from July - October 1943, the U.S. Navy destroyer escort, U.S.S. Eldridge (DE-173), with crew, was used in cloaking experiments (in dock and at sea) that went wrong. The strong magnetic field that was used to render the ship optically and/or radar invisible accidentally ‘de-materialized / teleported’ the ship from the Philadelphia Navy Yard to Norfolk, Virginia for a period of time. Some human participants in the experiment were killed when their bodies became...

The Sphinx is one of the world's oldest remaining wonders. By all accounts the Sphinx is incredibly old. Over the course of history, even ancient Egyptians occasionally discovered the Sphinx all over again, unburying a statue that was already more than a thousand years old while Pharaohs still ruled the land. It was a marvel of construction in its day, but when was that day? And is there more to the Sphinx than meets the eye? To this day questions persist about the Sphinx's origins, purpose, age...

The assassination of President John F. Kennedy is perhaps one of the greatest conspiracy theories to ever take hold in the American consciousness and is perhaps the birth of the modern day conspiracist. It represents the loss of America's innocence ( how many times has that been lost now? ), and proved that even the most protected person in the country could be killed, in broad daylight, not only in public, but as the center of the public's attention. Regardless which side of the conspiracy you ...
