In Season 2, Episode 7 of the Sophuckit Podcast, titled "The Moon Landing is a Hoax," host Soph explores one of history's most enduring conspiracy theories with special guest "The Godfather." The discussion kicks off by questioning if the Apollo missions were staged, then systematically debunks common claims using science and logic—from the infamous flag "waving" in a vacuum (attributed to momentum and wires) to uneven shadows possibly cast by spacecraft lights, the lack of visible stars due to camera exposure limits, and surviving the Van Allen radiation belts. They delve into broader topics like government secrecy, hidden advanced tech, the firmament theory, tidal evidence for the moon's 3D structure, and why humanity hasn't returned since 1969, amid Cold War propaganda and NASA's funding pressures. Other highlights include Hollywood's role in potential fakes, moon rock authenticity, geologist astronaut training, and even zero-gravity effects on conception. The episode wraps with the quirky "Ferret Files" segment, where a ferret named Tober dishes out life advice, blending humor with thought-provoking debate. Perfect for skeptics, space enthusiasts, and conspiracy buffs alike—featuring guest Manimal.
