Not once, not twice, but three times people left at the budding Roanoke Colony disappeared mysteriously. Was it attacks from the native populations or perhaps from their rival colonizers, the Spanish? What remained at Roanoke was practically nothing, save for a skeleton and some strange writing on trees. Between the privateering, senseless attacks against the native populations, and terrifying storms, the investigations into the lo...

What could possibly go wrong when you put a bunch of drunk, drugged up, testosterone-filled professional wrestlers on their own private 747? Nothing good.  Does someone get peed on? Almost. Is it all that funny? Definitely not. The infamous plane ride would lead to multiple firings, court cases, and ponytails getting cut off, and featured the likes of Ric Flair and Brock Lesnar. So, what exactly happened and how was it not a bigger...

This episode is about a time-traveling television set used by the Catholics in the fifties. Not only could you allegedly view historic events (like the crucifixion), but you could view the future. This secret Catholic science experiment remained locked in the Vatican archives for only few trusted eyes to use, before it was destroyed....or was it?

In this super long episode, we talk about the two earliest and most prominent cases of alien abduction: Antonio Villas-Boas and The Hills. Betty and Barney Hill are celebrities of the UFO community and arguably kicked off the more popular UFO craze in the United States, with an incomparably detailed story of their abduction which involves strange dreams, disembodied eyes, and hypnotic recollection. They no doubt would have rushed A...

If you're looking for someone to skyrocket your chances of completing your six degrees of Kevin Bacon, Christa Helm will really help. She was involved with people like Warren Beatty, Joe Namath, and the Shah of Iran. She was a professional party-thrower, practically famous for being famous. What also may have helped Christa stay famous...as well as lead to her death, was her little black book rating her sexual partners, other m...

Emir is afraid of hot dogs and late-night mesothelioma commercials. He talked about runaway cars and strange knocks on his third-story window, but the things that seemed to shake him the most....were hot dogs and tv commercials. On top of that we talked about ouija board experiences, ghostly silhouettes, bad nyquil trips, and more in the first of a continuing and intermittent series at Conspiracy Club, titled Ghost Stories. In the ...

Yes, we are still having audio issues. Tis the plight of the broke college podcaster. You could be upset about it, like us, or you could choose to see it as a glitch in the matrix...perhaps a ghost in the machine, or even a real ghost. Boo! To the real point of this description, this episode is about the loneliest of lonelies, Dr. Carl Tanzler. Was he a necrophiliac? Maybe, but that's about the only part of the story that is co...

This episode is a trip, folks. It's got dolphins, drugs, and an inter-species love story for the ages.  Not to mention Jeff Bridges, Carl Sagan, and maybe the faint mention of aliens. Hey, it was the sixties. It feels weird titling this episode as such, because it doesn't really encompass what happened here and any true title would be way too long. Some of our considerations before sticking with our generic one were as foll...

In this (delayed) episode, Emir experiences a glitch in the system while teaching us about the great Australian emu war. When veteran farmers were faced with the hungry plight of emu tearing apart their crops, they turned to the Australian military to handle the problem for them. This lead to the war...if you can even call it that, a handful of men against 20,000 birds. You can join the club by following us on Instagram and Twitter...
