Distrust and conspiratorial thinking has gone mainstream around the world. In Russia, prominent people are ranting about satanic conspiracies inside Ukraine. In the U.S., they can't even agree on what we should be afraid of. From Kanye West's dirty mouth to Putin's dirty bombs, the world's so-called elites are increasingly convinced that nefarious forces are plotting their demise. Dane counsels everyone to please take it down a notch before someone gets nuked.

60 - Global Paranoia Crisis

We explore claims about the occult, supernatural, and paranormal from an analytic standpoint. We’re open to the existence of a world beyond the five senses, and we dismiss that dogmatic skepticism that insists that any story about the unexplained has to reduce to ‘hallucinations’ or ‘swamp gas,’ but we’re not committed to any particular theory or philosophy about what the paranormal is. And we realize that, whatever is out there, the answer is likely to be more complicated than any existing model or theory. What we bring to the table is small ‘s’ skepticism – a skepticism that we throw as much on the mainstream accounts, as we do on the supernatural story.
