Conspiracy Realists

We're back with another episode! This month, we're talking about three popular urban legends and the stories (or lack thereof) behind them: the Methuen Water Demon, a demon that might as well be a leaky pipe; Slaughterhouse Canyon, the story of a grieving mother who murdered her children; and the 100 steps cemetery, which is said to give you a vision of your own demise.

But really, like everything else we talk about o...

The New World Order is a major talking point among many conspiracy circles, but what exactly is it? That's what Austin, Nick, and Gino set out to find out — and oh boy, this one's a doozy!

Unsurprisingly, the New World Order conspiracy theory has anti-semitic roots deeply grounded in right-wing beliefs and propagated by con artists and conspiracy pundits like Alex Jones.

So strap in, grab a drink, and dive into t...

In September 1994, more than 60 children at the Ariel School in Ruwa, Zimbabwe said that during recess, they watched as several silver flying discs landed in a nearby field and humanoid figures dressed all in black emerged.

The "men" then spoke to the children telepathically, showing them visions of an impending environmental disaster on Earth, before getting back in their ships and leaving.

The incident became so popul...

Here come the Men In Black, Galaxy Rear-Enders — wait, what?

That's right, we're back with another hot and steamy new episode for you. This week, we're talking about the Men In Black — but no, this isn't a film review. The real life Men In Black are much scarier than their movie counterparts, appearing to UFO witnesses and essentially gaslighting them into saying they didn't see anything out of the ordinary.

Oh, and our goo...

Whoa, whoa, whoa! It's been a solid 7 months since we last uploaded, but worry not because we are back. You'll notice in this recording that we say a few different times that it's only been three months since we last released an episode, and that's because we recorded this bad boy way back in October, but life got busy and editing took a long time.

Hey, it happens.

Anyway, if you're still reading this, this episode's all abo...

This week, Nick and Austin look into the history of giants, from the legends of Ancient Greece and the Bible to modern day reports of giant humans in Kandahar and Scotland's Big Grey Man, to find out once and for all if giants might possibly still exist today.

This week, Austin and Nick are back with a new theme song, new cover art, and a new conspiracy theory.

Kanye Quest 3030 was a seemingly innocent fan game released by a user called Phenix in 2013, but two years later players would discover the dark hidden secrets behind the game's creation. Is Kanye Quest really just a fun, surprisingly good indie game? Or is it a tool used to recruit new members to the cult of Ascensionism?

After a brief 2-week hiatus, Austin and Nick are back to discuss the infamous Roswell, New Mexico UFO Incident.

It may be one of the most well-known UFO cases of all time, but how much of it is true? Did little grey men actually crashland in the New Mexico desert, or was it just a weather balloon as the government claims?

Nick and Austin may not have all the answers, but they sure as hell have opinions.

Most of us have crossed a bridge at least once in our lives, but have you ever stopped to wonder if the restless souls of those who died on that bridge are still lurking about? Some bridges, it turns out, are meant to be avoided.

This week, Austin Harvey and Nick Sarnelli take a look at some of America's most haunted bridges, and Nick shares the horrifying story of a man named Jimmy C. Is he just a man who jumped from the Golde...

After a week-long hiatus, Austin and Nick are back! This week, Conspiracy Realists are taking a look at the mysterious circumstances around the death of famous author, Edgar Allan Poe. Did he drink himself to death? Was he mugged? Who was Reynolds? And why, on his deathbed, did Poe mutter the word, "Croatoan?" In fact, Croatoan has been linked to several mysterious disappearances including the infamous robber, Black Bart, author Am...

This week, Austin and Nick take a look at some of the weirdest, and dumbest, government-funded military projects that never made it to fruition.

Featuring Bat Bombs, Digging Holes Under the Soviet Embassy, Acoustic Kitty, Nuking the Moon, and Scaring the Japanese With Fox Spirits!

This week, we take a look at one of the strangest conspiracy theories out there: Finland doesn't exist.

Is the idyllic country just a lie made up by the Soviets and the Japanese to cover up their covert fishing operation? What about other theories like Giraffes Don't Exist and Wyoming Doesn't Exist?

Do any of these hold any truth?

For years, people who have experienced sleep paralysis have reported seeing the same figure watching them: a silhouetted man, identifiable only by his wide-brimmed hat. Known as "The Hat Man," the figure has become something of a legend, but could this legend hint at something more? This week, Nick and Austin are going to find out.

On this week's episode, Austin and Nick travel across the Pacific Ocean and back in time 10,000 years to uncover the mystery surrounding Yonaguni Jima, a ziggurat-like stone structure found submerged off the coast of Yonaguni Island in Japan.

While some naysayers believe the forms are natural, some researchers think they may be evidence of an old Yamatai city or perhaps even The Lost Continent of Mu.

They said we'd never make it, but we did! That's right, folks — 11 whole episodes. To celebrate this momentous occasion, Austin Harvey and Nick Sarnelli are joined by their good friend @caseycantdraw while Nick presents The Gauntlet: 11 conspiracy theories that didn't have quite enough to be their own episodes.

This includes Plants are Farming Us, Amelia Earhart was Eaten by Crabs, JK Rowling Isn't Real, Killer Clo...

On August 15, 1977 volunteer researcher Jerry Ehman made a discovery at Ohio State's "Big Ear" satellite that would change his life — and potentially prove that extra terrestrial life is trying to contact humanity.

Join Austin Harvey and Nick Sarnelli in their search for truth as they dive deep into the history of the Wow! Signal and the theories surrounding it.

The Conspiracy Realists are live from Austin's apartment (and then heavily edited for comedy's sake) in this episode all about the mysterious cryptid known as the Mongolian Death Worm, a 2-foot, sausage-like creature with venomous bile and razor-sharp teeth.

Nick's got the evidence, but if we're being honest, most of this episode is jokes about f***ing the Mongolian Death Worm. Specifically, Dick Cheney f***ing...
