  • EP. 12 - Bad Moon On The Rise
    Are we reaching a point of mass hysteria and general incivility where the only resolution is the dissolution on the United States? Perhaps not yet, but some think we’ve already transitioned into a soft civil war and that soon things may harden up into a gross cake-like confection of populist rage that kills whoever eats it.

  • EP. 11 - Madness Put to Good Use
    “Sanity is a madness put to good uses.” - George Santayana Right now, in an undisclosed laboratory researchers are working hard on technology that will destroy everything you know. That could be through the development of job replacing autonomous robots or through the accidental development of superintelligent AI which see's no difference between preserving life and bending paper clips. This is the world we live in.      Mad Scientists are something of an overdone movie trope but in real life they're everywhere you look. In our headlong rush to race down the razors edge of technological innovation sometimes we fail to recognize the dangers within the fruits of our labors. In this episode we discuss the threat posed by rouge science and the people who love it.

    Keith Raniere thought he could become a god instead he has become a prisoner of the state being held on sex trafficking charges.

  • Ep. 7 - Rumors of War

    Syria is in pretty bad shape these days. But recently things have been taking on a more apocalyptic air. On April 14th the US, UK and French forces launch a coordinated attack on Syrian chemical weapons facilities.

That Russian and US forces are trading shots with each other has all the potential of igniting a larger conflict.

    In this episode Oddnormal explores many of the possible scenarios that could launch the world into another global "war to end all wars".

  • Ep. 3 - Is Anybody Listening to Me?

    After the second episode most people would have hoped Fiasco and Jacks would call it quits, as it would happen, those people are not this podcast's target audience. People who fear the encroaching eye of a totalitarian government and believers in a Simpson's/Freemason conspiracy theories are this show's flock. So gather round my paranoid brothers - and spies that are merely pretending to be brothers - because episode three is here. (Sisters may also join the flock)
