EPISODE 124 | One of Our Aircraft Is Missing
A look at a few outstanding cases of plane crashes and disappearances, commercial flights that have gone awry, and some of the weirdness surrounding those mishaps. And, of course, the ones we’ll look at have had conspiracy theories spun about them.
This episode is dedicated to my godson, Vova (or Rusty, as we call him), because he absolutely loves commercial aircraft.

EPISODE 123 | A Heritage of Nonsense: More JKF Stories
Guest: Fred Litwin, author of A Heritage of Nonsense: Jim Garrison's Tales of Mystery and Imagination
The JFK assassination truly is the gift that keeps on giving, as this third book on the topic by Fred Litwin demonstrates. People who became suspects after just a two-minute phone call, a comedian who claimed to have channeled Oswald's ghost, a dishwasher spy, Jim Garrison's theory of propinquity and more weirdness than you can shake a stick at.

EPISODE 122 | How to Be a Communist
One of the many words tossed about these days as a snarl term is “communist”, but do the people using this sobriquet know what that really means? It certainly doesn’t mean every leftwing philosophy or ideology. In fact, Communism is a very specific set of applications of very certain ideas, and, like it or not, helped define the 20th century.
So let’s look at what Communism is and what it isn’t, and what other systems and suites of thought have crossover with it. Like all the different flavors of Socialism.

EPISODE 121 | Coup Coup G'joob: Civic Disturbances in the U.S. 1900 - Present
This is a continuation of our previous episode about coup attempts, rebellions and civic unrest in the United States prior to the 20th century. This time, we jump into the 20th century and bring us right up to the present day. After hearing all this, you decide if things really are, as some would have you believe, the worst it’s ever been, or if in fact, America has always struggled with its foundational problems and original sins, coupled with an unusual appetite for, or at least tolerance of, violence.

EPISODE 120 | OOPArts Doompa-Dee-Doo
Sometimes people find something… interesting, maybe even mysterious. What is that? they ask. And then they or someone else makes a logical leap and says oh, wow, here is the missing link I’ve been looking for that proves all my theories that until now have been ridiculed or ignored. And not even scientists are immune to this very common and very human process.
We’re looking at out of place artifacts, or OOPArts – things found in an unusual context. This might, upon examination, indicate that certain civilizational develops happened much earlier than we had thought or, if you’re of a certain bent, be used to further narratives of ancient advanced civilizations, Atlantis, ancient aliens, time travel, or the literal truth of the Bible.

Episode 119 | False-Flag-A-Go-Go (WIW 14)
The false flag trick started with naval warfare, but has also been used to initiate wars and to sabotage political opponents. And the conspirasphere uses the idea of the false flag, both in general and specific terms, quite often to justify certain narratives. In that regard, the two most influential are the assassination of John F. Kennedy, and the attacks in New York City and Washington D.C. on September 11, 2001. Since that latter event, nearly every major public incident has been called a false flag by someone or another.
Since today is September 11, this seems like a fitting time to look at false flags from history, because they do actually happen. Sometimes.

EPISODE 118 | Public Enemy Antifa
Much has been made about Antifa. Is it a concept, socio-political stance, or an organized group? Do they oppose oppression by any means necessary, or are they simply hooligans who want to break things? Or, as Trump and others in the Maga mirror world have suggested, are they the quasi-military arm of some insidious plot to undermine the very foundations of western society? Are they, in fact, terrorists? So, let’s trace what it is, where it comes from and who is part of it.

EPISODE 117 | Stay Awake – The Wokeness Issue
In a classic example of the weird mirror world days we are currently moving through, a term used by Black people to mean one thing has been turned by opportunists into something totally different.
So, let's look at the origin of the term "woke", how it's been used, African-American Vernacular English (AAVE), the Black Lives Matter movement, Defund the Police, and the appropriating of the word by those who see more personal profit in keeping us all divided.

EPISODE 115 | Cuckoo Coups in the U.S.
Alarmist rhetoric has been used multiple times in America’s past with the express intent of fomenting a rebellion or even a coup. The game is to create a sense of urgency in the hopes that enough people will commit to extreme actions, so you can get what you want (which is power).
According to Wikipedia, there have been 13 coup attempts in the United States since it won its independence from the British crown, plus an additional 29 rebellions and well, lots of moments of civil unrest. Things are not always happy and peaceful in the Land of the Free. Often because some people don’t think everyone should, in fact, be free.
Here's a look at those that occurred before the 20th century.
