A lighthearted look at conspiracies and their theorists… or deep state shills working to obfuscate the truth? You decide.
Folks, this week we're talking about two incidents that are more connected than you might think: Dan Andrews stacking it on a tiny staircase and the assassination attempt on Nancy Pelosi. We have News Corp losing their mind, fake news content farms, and DOGS. ON. SMACK. A little something for everyone.

This week we're talking about our new King - is the Antichrist? Is he an eco-fascist? Is he a vampire? Plus Salty is scared of scary movies. SPOILER ALERT FOR M. NIGHT SHYAMALAN'S SPLIT. No spoiler alert for Mark Duplass' Creep, because I edited the spoilers out. You're most welcome.

Write an episode description for our podcast episode about artificial intelligence conspiracy theories.
In this episode of the podcast, we explore the world of artificial intelligence conspiracy theories. We discuss the history of AI and its development, as well as the various conspiracy theories surrounding its existence and purpose. We also examine the evidence for and against these theories, and try to make sense of it all.
(We don't do any of that - we talk about the time that Robbo accidentally told the Google robot that his brewery was closed)
This week we're talking about The Real Queen! Was Queen Elizabeth swapped out at birth? And who is the charismatic Canadian getting people to stop paying their lecky across the Commonwealth?
It's hopefully the last opportunity we'll have to cover this one - we take a look at some of the conspiracy theories around former Prime Minister Scott Morrison's photo opportunities.
