Ep. 275 - The Witch of New York
Dec 2200:35:53Tap to summarizeOn Christmas 1843, a horrific discovery was made on New York's Staten Island. Inside a cottage, the bodies of a young mother and her infant daughter were discovered. Whoever killed them had tried setting the house on fire to cover up the crime. Soon a woman named Polly Bodine would be arrested for the crime. It was none other than P.T. Barnum who gave her the nickname she would forever be known by, The Witch of Staten Island.

Transcribe →Ep. 223 - The Matrix
Jan 8, 2024Tap to summarizeAre we living in the Matrix? What is reality? Many scientists, philosophers and mathematicians believe in the simulation theory, the idea that everything you see, hear, touch, smell and feel is all just a computer generated simulation of what you think is real life. In this episode we explore the evidence and try to figure out if everything is real...isn't. Hear the story of the tech company executive who died mysteriously and her disturbing final words. Hear the stories about glitches in the matrix, the Mandela Effect, and the mathematical evidence that points to us all being part of some massive computer generated illusion.

Transcribe →Ep. 165 - The Premonitions Bureau
Oct 18, 2021Tap to summarizeIn October 1966 a terrible mining disaster occurred in the Welsh village of Aberfan, killing 116 children and 28 adults. One strange thing that occurred following the disaster were the number of stories that began emerging that several children who were killed along with a number of other adults who should have had no knowledge of the flood, began reporting having psychic premonitions of the disaster before it occurred. This led a British psychiatrist named John Barker to create a premonitions bureau, where he collected stories of psychic visions, in the hope that they could one day use this information to save lives.Patreon:https://www.patreon.com/theconspiratorspodcastNotes: https://www.smithsonianmag.com/history/true-story-aberfan-disaster-featured-crown-180973565/ https://www.smithsonianmag.com/science-nature/what-is-the-nocebo-effect-5451823/ https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2019/03/04/the-psychiatrist-who-believed-people-could-tell-the-future https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-1360777/Can-dreams-predict-future-Book-examines-psychology-paranormal.html https://www.skeptic.com/eskeptic/11-07-06/ Learn more about your ad choices.

Jan 7, 2019Tap to summarizeIn February, 1994, a 34-year-old cancer patient named Gloria Ramirez was rushed into the Riverside General emergency room having difficulty breathing. Soon after, more than a dozen nurses, doctors and patients began passing out from toxic fumes that allegedly came from the woman's body. But what really caused this bizarre incident?
