Is there a good podcast that tackles debunking conspiracy theories?

There seem to be plenty promoting daft conspiracy theories.

TIA

Maybe the crazy ones (Icke, Jews ruling the world, etc.) are too mad to need debunking, and the less crazy ones have an element of truth anyway? Lusitania, Operation Northwoods, Marconi deaths, etc.

Lizard People is a comedy one - the host has people come on to defend a pet conspiracy theory and she marks them out of ten for plausibility, strength of argument etc. Some guests have really done their research, others are more on the improv side of things.
