The Conspiracy Podcast

Long before Antarctica was ever discovered, people already believed it existed. Ancient philosophers and mapmakers imagined a massive southern continent—Terra Australis—balancing the world, a phantom land drawn onto maps centuries before anyone laid eyes on it. But when explorers finally reached the far south in the 1800s, they found something far stranger than myth: a frozen world that seemed to distort not just navigation, but perception itself.
In this episode, the boys journey through the eerie history of Antarctica—from ancient legends and early expeditions to unsettling ghost stories and modern conspiracies. They explore accounts from polar explorers who claimed to hear voices in abandoned huts, feel unseen presences in the darkness, and even encounter mysterious “third companions” during near-death journeys across the ice.
The story then descends into the continent’s real-world anomalies: blood-red waterfalls pouring from glaciers, massive lakes hidden under miles of ice, and warm volcanic caves that may harbor unknown ecosystems beneath the coldest place on Earth.
But Antarctica’s strangest chapter may have come after World War II. The episode examines Nazi expeditions to the continent, unexplained submarine disappearances, and the U.S. Navy’s massive Operation Highjump—led by Admiral Richard Byrd—followed by his unsettling warnings about aircraft coming from the polar regions.
Finally, the episode confronts the biggest question of all: why did every major world power agree to lock away an entire continent under the Antarctic Treaty? With no military allowed, no permanent population, and strict global control, Antarctica remains the only place on Earth that truly feels off-limits.
Not because of what is known.
But because of what might still be buried under the ice.

The boys take on one of the most iconic “true story” films ever made: Braveheart. From blue face paint and kilts to the legendary cry of “Freedom!”, the movie shaped how the world remembers William Wallace and Scotland’s fight for independence. But how much of it actually happened?
The episode breaks down the real history behind the film, starting with who William Wallace truly was — not a poor farmer, but a minor noble — and what really sparked his rebellion. It revisits the Battle of Stirling Bridge (yes, there was an actual bridge), the myths surrounding jus primae noctis, the completely fictional romance with Princess Isabella, and the misleading portrayal of Robert the Bruce.
The boys also explore Wallace’s brutal execution, what the movie surprisingly gets right, and why Hollywood altered so much of the story in the first place.
Was Braveheart a historical disaster or a powerful legend built on real events? This episode separates cinematic myth from medieval reality and reveals how one man became both a national hero and one of history’s most misunderstood figures.

When 5G technology started rolling out worldwide, it promised faster speeds, better connectivity, and the foundation for everything from smart cities to self-driving cars. But instead of just excitement, something else spread alongside the signal: fear.
In this episode, we explore how a faster mobile network became the subject of one of the strangest conspiracy theories in recent memory. From concerns about radiation and health risks to bizarre claims linking 5G to the COVID-19 pandemic, the rollout of 5G sparked a wave of misinformation that led to tower burnings, public protests, and viral panic.
We break down what 5G actually is—how it compares to technologies like Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, what frequencies it uses, and why it’s safe. Then we dig into the history: the early protests, the rise of anti-5G groups, and how social media platforms, influencers, and even celebrities helped amplify false narratives. You’ll hear about conspiracy theories involving mind control, government surveillance, and even microchips supposedly activated by 5G networks.
But this isn’t just a story about bad science—it’s about something deeper. Why do new technologies so often become targets of fear? Why were people once afraid of electricity, microwaves, and even bicycles? And what can we learn from past tech panics that might help us navigate the future?
Whether you’ve heard whispers about 5G dangers or you’re just curious about how a mobile network got caught in a global misinformation storm, this episode breaks it all down—clearly, calmly, and with a little bit of historical context.
Join us as we trace the rise—and fall—of the 5G conspiracy, separating fact from fiction and exploring what happens when invisible signals become symbols of something much bigger.

Update and followup to Episode 32, The Bermuda Triangle.
For decades, the Bermuda Triangle has haunted the public imagination—a cursed patch of ocean where ships vanish and planes disappear into thin air. From the chilling mystery of Flight 19 to the sudden loss of the USS Cyclops, stories of vanishing vessels have fueled theories ranging from alien abductions to time warps and lost civilizations. But what if the truth was hiding in plain sight—beneath the waves all along?
In this episode, we journey beyond the legends to uncover the real science behind the Bermuda Triangle’s eerie reputation. Featuring insights from renowned science communicator Dr. Karl Kruszelnicki and oceanographer Dr. Simon Boxall, we explore how natural forces—not the supernatural—may finally explain the area’s most baffling disappearances.
From violent Gulf Stream currents and unpredictable weather to compass anomalies and the deadly phenomenon of rogue waves, we unpack the evidence that rewrites everything we thought we knew. You’ll hear how a single 100-foot wave could snap a steel ship in two—and why some vessels vanish without even a distress call.
Forget sea monsters and aliens. The real story is more thrilling, and far more real. Some are saying the Bermuda Triangle mystery is now solved...
