Separating the credible from the conspiratorial, one theory at a time.

Have you ever seen a strange trail in the sky, a weird symbol on a dollar bill, or a grainy photo from a historical event and thought... is there something more going on here?

You’re not alone. The world is full of compelling mysteries and powerful theories that claim to expose the "real" story. But in an age of endless information, how do you separate the credible from the conspiratorial?

Welcome to Conspiracy Deconstructed, the show that steps into the heart of the rabbit hole so you don’t have to. Each week, we] take on one of history's most compelling conspiracy theories—from the alleged moon landing hoax and the secrets of Area 51, to the mysterious symbols of the Illuminati and the truth about UFOs.

But this isn't another show that feeds the paranoia. We do the opposite.

Using a calm, rational, and evidence-based approach, we will:
TRACE THE ORIGINS: Discover the exact moment and reason each theory was born.
PRESENT THE "EVIDENCE": Fairly examine the photos, documents, and claims that believers point to as proof.
DECONSTRUCT THE FACTS: Meticulously cross-reference the claims with primary sources, expert consensus, and declassified information to find the ground truth.
EXPLORE THE PSYCHOLOGY: Uncover why these stories are so powerful and what they tell us about ourselves.

If you're a curious skeptic tired of the noise, or if you've ever wanted a satisfying, fact-based explanation for the world's greatest mysteries, this is the podcast for you.

The Satanic Panic & False Memories: Did We Hallucinate a Cult?
Are your childhood memories real, or did someone plant them there? 🧠🕵️‍♀️

Imagine being terrified of a crime that never actually happened. In the 1980s and 90s, the world was gripped by a mass hysteria known as the Satanic Panic. Daycares were accused of being secret dungeon cults, and thousands of people suddenly "remembered" horrific ritual abuse that had been hidden in their minds for years.

But what if the "cure" was actually the cause?

In this episode, we expose the dark history of Repressed Memories and the controversial rise of False Memory Syndrome. We dive deep into the infamous McMartin Preschool Trial—the most expensive trial in US history—where hysterical media coverage and manipulative interviewing techniques turned innocent teachers into monsters.

We also profile the woman who stood against the tide: Elizabeth Loftus. You’ll learn how this cognitive psychologist proved that human memory is not a video recorder, but a Wikipedia page that can be edited by anyone. We breakdown the science of suggestibility, how therapists accidentally inception-ed their patients, and the legal war between the "False Memory Syndrome Foundation" and the survivors.

We’re unlocking the files on:
The "Inception" Effect: How easy is it to plant a fake memory in a child’s brain? (Spoiler: Terrifyingly easy).
The George Franklin Case: The murder trial that hinged on a "recovered" memory 20 years later.
Mass Hysteria: How the media convinced the world that Satanists were running your local kindergarten.

Trust nothing. Question everything. Even your own mind.

🎧 Press PLAY to deconstruct the myth and see if you can tell the difference between a memory and a lie.
