Irreverent Pod about conspiracy theories

[thepinkshoessandra]

Just as my thread title says.

Does a Podcast exist that discusses conspiracy theories and is prepared to weigh up whether or not they could be true?

Or a podcast which debunks them?

My OP should have said I have heard Winds Of Change.

Dan Schreiber often investigates people's odd beliefs, though not really conspiracy theories as such. He hosts We Can Be Weirdos (where a different person every week talks about what strange beliefs they have), and The Cryptid Factor, which I haven't listened to. There's also This Paranormal Life, which I only know about because Dan Schreiber guested on it once.

I don't listen to any of these regularly. They're not really my thing. But just to get you started.

The Skeptics With a K podcast covers conspiracy theories among a lot of other topics. They (infrequently) do a sister show called Be Reasonable where they actually interview proponents of various fringe theories. That's not particularly irreverent, though, as they try to tackle the ideas honestly and respectfully.

There's also Knowledge Fight which is mainly focussed on the US Infowars presenter Alex Jones and his particular brand of crazy conspiracy theory although they do sometimes cover others in his orbit. That's one of my favourites.

Art bell with coast to coast am, normally youtube is good for these and have various topics

Thank you everyone.

When I wrote irreverent, I don't want to watch or listen to anything which laughs at the people who believe.
I'm interested in debunking the beliefs themselves.

Although I will watch and listen, there is so much about USA infowars.

Again, thank you. I'll take a look and listen to everything you have all recommended.

Who Replaced Avril Lavigne might fit the bill?

Art bell will be quite good, thing if is govts; military etc didn't have secret projects etc then no conspiracy's

Have a look at James delingpole.

You might like 'Things fell apart' by Jon Rosnon. It is more about debunking parts of the stories that have formed 'culture war' in recent years (eg anti vaxx) and speaking to the people that were involved in the stories at the time

Listen to the Why Files on Youtube

I'm shamelessly placemarking here.
