EPISODE 46 | Fakespiracies: Anyone Can Play!

As another holiday season rolls around, there's the looming threat of dealing family & friends who subscribe to this conspiracy theory or that one. Here's a collection of some fake conspiracy theories, #fakespiracy, that you can use to confound those folks, as well as entertain and maybe even educate a bit. From hidden messages about 9/11 in the film "Back to the Future" to nefarious truths about snack foods, and even some tools for creating your own #fakespiracies out of whole cloth, this episode will help you prepare for the onslaught on CT conversation around the dinner table.
