Kim Kardashian and the Moon Landing Conspiracy

• Kim’s Moon Landing Denial

  • Transitioning from AI, Holmberg introduces Kim Kardashian’s claim that the moon landing never happened, relating it to the show’s recurring guest conspiracy theorist, Dave Nash.
  • He confesses—even as a skeptic—some NASA footage (like the lunar module's ascent) looks “barbarella bad,” raising his own suspicions:
    • Quote:

      “I saw the video of the lunar module thingy taken off after we were done up there. And I’m like, that goes. Heading back to Earth. It is the fakest thing I’ve ever seen in my life. Nothing cartoonish.” — Podcast Host [09:01]

• Mockery and Questions About NASA Stories

  • The team jokes about the implausibility of leaving a running camera on the moon for the takeoff shot and parachuting back to earth after such high-tech feats, leading to laughter and exaggeration.
  • They question the logic behind being able to land on the moon but not design a better return to earth, focusing on the “just throw a pod at the planet” narrative.
    • Quote:

      “Can land on the moon, but you couldn’t land on earth.” — Podcast Host [09:56]

    • Quote:

      “When you come home, you’re just gonna be in a disc and we’re gonna chuck you at the planet.” — Podcast Host [10:57]

• Citing Conspiracy Arguments

  • The Van Allen radiation belts, oddities in splashdown recovery, and viral Buzz Aldrin interviews are brought up as classic moon landing denial talking points—though mostly in jest.

• Buzz Aldrin's "Confession"

  • Holmberg references a viral moment where Buzz Aldrin purportedly said “because we never went” when asked by a child why we haven't returned to the moon:
    • Quote:

      “It may be some little girl asked him a question, like, she’s like nine. And she goes, Why don’t we go back? And he goes, because we never went.” — Podcast Host [12:06]

  • The crew suggests Aldrin is just “moon poisoned,” inventing the term “lunar crazies.”

[Podcast Host]

Homburg's morning sickness. The old method of treatment for a person in this condition was to throw him in jail. There you go. That's Limp Bizkit. It's good to hear real human beings making music. I kind of like. And Limp Bizkit is right there because I am getting every single day now somebody sending me another AI song that is just spectacular. And it makes me like there's. There's a. I just got. Let me see if I can find this one real quick. This is Lightning Crashes. If it were a soul song, like a 70s soul cover, and if this was real human beings and you were at like, let's say you're at a bar or something and this. These dudes just like, how y' all doing tonight? We're live souls. And they brought your.

[Podcast Co-host]

I could see you doing at a church service.

[Podcast Host]

Your jaw would drop to the floor. This would be one of those moments where, like, it would be television history. And they keep remembering those guys came out and did that version of it. This is unreal. How cool this is. And it's all fake. Sounds a little like Chris Maple or no jelly roll. Really? Kind of. Yeah. Only good. You're right. I'll get to cut to the heart. They get to the church choir kind of in the background going, everything's fake now. This is one of coolest covers of a song. They didn't have to change much. We could have done this had we thought of it. Humans. Maybe next year Night of the Singing Dead will be all AIs because they're not real. They're not alive. They're haunting us. Come on. Made it like a church revival. That's beautiful. Damn it.

[Podcast Co-host]

All American Idol. Oh, you'd win those.

[Podcast Host]

I don't know what's going on with AI and what the future holds with it, but right now, making fat people roll around, destroying Bob Ross. Mr. Rogers. Some reason Kobe Bryant snuck in there and he's done a lot of stuff with helicopters. I'm enjoying the hell out of it. It hasn't been used for evil in my life yet. It's going to go that direction. But really, you know what I think, knowing what we know is that all new technology is needed first and then eventually becomes a weapon of war. Let's just put our arms around AI right now and say, hey, thanks, buddy, before you take off and become the worst thing ever. I've really enjoyed our time together because it's a matter of time, with an election year coming up, you're just going to be. You're going to be a nuke. We're just waiting. But right now, covering, you know, this, the kind of stuff we're dealing with here, where you're just kind of screwing around with me and taking songs I know and making them awesome. You're my friend right now, AI. You're my friend. It's not going to last long, though. You're going to. You're going to turn even. It's kind of like being friends with Anakin Skywalker. I know what's coming. I know this isn't going to end well.

[Podcast Co-host]

Killed them all.

[Podcast Host]

Yeah. Up until that point, he was just a kid who wanted to race. Pods seemed okay, but metichlorian levels were so high. Chlor or whatever they were. A lot of people knew this could turn. We all know that about A.I. listen to that. It's almost like you're looking at your. You're on your porch waving to AI as it walks away from your house and it turns and gives you a wind wink. And then the next time you see it, it's just this tornado of hellfire and misery because that's coming. It gave us some good stuff before it went crazy.

[Brett Vesely]

You know who would cover this great Michael McDonald. Oh, he'd do a great cover of that.

[Podcast Host]

You don't even need it. I know. Let's go get a little Michael McDonald cover and have him cover everything you love. Maybe not.

[Byron]

I don't know.

[Podcast Host]

Maybe. Oh, it works. It's so good. God damn it, AI. Yeah? I already know we're gonna break up with AI, and it's not gonna go.

[Podcast Co-host]

Well, but take us a year for an album. You can do it in 15 minutes.

[Podcast Host]

Yeah, then be better than what you.

[Brett Vesely]

Imagine how long Chinese democracy would have taken with AI, man.

[Podcast Host]

10 years, 5 days again. Let's just. You know what? Let's look this gift horse in the mouth for a second. Thanks, AI. Now off you go to destroy planets, because that's what you're. That's what someone's gonna use you for, and that's what you're gonna end up being known for. Because this is not going to be fun and games the whole time.

[Podcast Co-host]

Maybe that's what we should do when we're testing our nukes. Just AI videos.

[Podcast Host]

Make it fake nukes.

[Podcast Co-host]

Yeah.

[Podcast Host]

Guy says it sounds like Terence Trent Darby. Lgbqtrqrst. Yeah, I don't know what he is now either, but I know you're talking about. Yeah. Oh, it says John. What are you talking about? Did you see that, AI? That what it did to that kid that killed himself? Chat GPT. No, but I. I haven't seen that. But I know it's out there, and I know that's going to be what it ends up doing all the time. It's not always going to be cute covers. Eventually it's going to be murders, and all of them are going to be AI's fault wars. There'll be no more elections. We were worried about election tampering with hanging chads. That's baby head with this dude's doing anyway. But I am currently just kind of taking a breath going, thanks, thanks. I'm just gonna call it Anakin. Thanks, Anakin. I don't know what your future holds, but I know it's bad and I know it's gonna harm us all. But God damn it, you left us some fine music to start with. It'll be three or four years before Brett and I are sitting in there in our apocalyptic houses. Brett will be long gone. There's no doctors in the future.

[Podcast Co-host]

Just Clothes left.

[Podcast Host]

Yeah, that's it. Just. Well, no, you're thinking that Jesus. You're thinking that Jesus came for you, but he's not. And you'll be. You'll be dead of kidney causes because the doctors are going to be gone and the AI is going to have taken over and killed friends and everything else. And Brett and I will be sitting there just going, hey, remember that? Remember that ice cube cover 8 I did before it started to kill everybody? I do. I remember. Remember the Sopranos jokes when they made them babies? That was fun. Remember when AI was just an infant? Seemed harmless. And now it's Damien moments away. But I'll take it while we got it. Speaking of things we gotta take while we got it, Dale Hellstray is gonna come in here a little bit, and I do that podcast with Dale Hellstray and guest Dave Nash. And Dave Nash is a massive conspiracy theorist, and it's hard not to listen to him sometimes and just think, where are you getting all this? Well, Kim Kardashian is now saying there was no moon landing. And the more you look into this, oh, my God, I don't go on the Internet. Maybe don't go on the Internet and start looking that up. It's hard not to go, hold on a second. I saw. And I don't know if this was real or not. I saw the video of the lunar module thingy taken off after we were done up there. And I'm like, that goes. Heading back to Earth. It is the fakest thing I've ever seen in my life. Nothing cartoonish.

[Podcast Co-host]

They never show that launched that and that.

[Podcast Host]

Yeah, they leave the little staircase and whatever, and then they just get on this thing. It goes. And when it leaves, it's like, oh, my God, that's not it. That's barbarella bad. There they go, heading home. Astronauts now taking their. Taking their leave of the moon. Everything seems to be going swimmingly well because no problems.

[Podcast Co-host]

They left a camera going.

[Podcast Host]

I guess that's another thing. I'm like, well, the thing just kept running.

[Podcast Co-host]

The original selfie.

[Podcast Host]

Everything seems to be going well. Astronauts being with Houston and the bullas are headed home. And then they parachute. All that technology and they parachuted back in. Can land on the moon, but you couldn't land on earth.

[Podcast Co-host]

It does throw your up nice, too.

[Podcast Host]

Throw yourself at the planet and hope you hit water. But you. Oh, I'm starting to get weird about it.

[Podcast Co-host]

It's all math, man.

[Podcast Host]

No, I know, but they're like, we don't have any Way to land you here. We'll get you safely there. But coming back home, you're a rock. We're going to skip you across the Atlantic. Okay, hit the Earth and. Coming up pretty hot. Coming up pretty hot. You got any wheels or landing gear on this? No, we don't have any landing gear. Just going to hit the water hard. It seems unreasonable, but. All right. That's exactly how it is.

[Podcast Co-host]

What is. I wonder what the impact was. I mean, the shoots. Well, the shoots came down.

[Podcast Host]

A nice job with shoots, but essentially the plan was we get you the moon, you break out this awesome little landing thing. It's got legs, and it's like an erector set. It's gonna casually just kind of drop down, and when you come home, you're just gonna be in a disc and we're gonna chuck you at the planet.

[Podcast Co-host]

So that could have been a plane. They just a C5, C130, whatever, and just drop the pod out. So the parachutes come down. Yeah, the splash down. That's the easy cover.

[Podcast Host]

Oh, that's. Oh, it's really. But when you see that video of it leaving the moon, I'm like, that's not. I've never seen it in my life. I'm like, I don't know if that's just made up or not. Starts making you wonder.

[Podcast Co-host]

Geyser springs. Burn marks from breaking back in the atmosphere on the pod.

[Podcast Host]

This one says, look up the Van Allen radiation belts and then tell me how the hell NASA got filmed through them. You can't take film through a security camera. Then I'm watching all these videos of Buzz Aldrin on talk shows going, we never went. He was there. He was on Conan o'. Brien. And he broke out with it.

[Podcast Co-host]

He just got him in the tail end.

[Podcast Host]

It may be some little girl asked him a question. Like, she's like nine. And she goes, why don't we go back? And he goes, because we never went.

[Brett Vesely]

Oh, man.

[Podcast Host]

It's like, nine. Like, why are you messing with her? Buzz, stop. I don't know. I got dementia. Don't worry about it. As an old man, he's got moon poisoning. He's got poisoned up there and makes him say crazy.

[Podcast Co-host]

Lunar crazies.

[Podcast Host]

They got the lunar crazies. It happens. That's why we don't go back and answer any question. And Buzz can't do it because he's nuts. So I got to sit with him again today for an hour or so, talking about conspiracies and things, and he's starting to make sense. And that makes me worry. Nash making sense is not good. And then Dale's like, well, I looked into a feeling Johnny. I go, no, I got him too. Anyway, Dale will be here in a second. See if he's got any conspiracy theories. Because he came to my house Sunday for the Steelers game and was soundly booed on his way out the door, which was hilarious. Everybody booed Dale as he came in as Ravens gear jackass Steelers got trounced because of him. It's 8:58. We got Dale coming up. Your word for 9am Is thousand thousand. Not a thousand thousand. That's it. You put it in that promo code for 9am in a couple of minutes and you are going to qualify yourself for $1,000 by taking it in the app.

[Ranch House Grill Announcer]

It's not weird.

[Podcast Co-host]

It's pretty cool actually. No membership fees.

[Podcast Host]

I have heard enough of this. It's John Holmer here for Game Day. Men's Health Being in shape, it's not easy. In fact, it's not fun. The older you get, the harder it is to stay in shape. Excuses get in the way a lot of the times, but sometimes our bodies just stop cooperating. You don't produce the same way you did 10 years ago. And that's true no matter how old you are. And when you hit 50, forget it. You really feel the difference. But since I wasn't showing signs of gains with my workouts, we looked into peptides and I'm feeling a massive difference. Medically supervised, completely safe. My energy is great. If you think you need a little help like I did, just go to gamedaymen's health.com this is Michael with Restore My Civil Rights.
