  • Gud

    I really love this show and the team(not just the hosts) that create it. Like some other reviews have mentioned, there are quite a few ads, but I give this show an A!! Also, don’t listen to anybody who tells you that having an opinion other than theirs is bad. We love you noel, don’t ever forget that.

  • Entertaining but not as much

    I used to like this show a lot, but these guys are so rabid about Trump that it makes me not want to listen. There is a period of time they never criticize and it’s 2008-2016 and 2021-2024. These just so happen to be liberal admins. They seemed to do no wrong to these guys. Meanwhile Trump and any conservative admin is Satan to them. It’s very annoying because if they applied the same standard across all politics it wouldn’t be so blatant pandering. I would like to learn how the Biden and Obama ... more

    I’ve been a listener since the beginning, but the ads have become completely out of hand. All of the iHeart content is nearly unlistenable now.

  • ## Ist es vorstellbar dass dieser (und andere/aehnliche) Podcasts von iHeartRadio zur 'Controlled Oposition' gehoeren? Oder ist dieser Gedanke ABSOLUT abwegig?

    Der Gedanke, dass ein reichweitenstarker Podcast wie „Stuff They Don’t Want You To Know“ als Controlled Opposition (gesteuerte Opposition) fungiert, ist in der Logik von Verschwörungstheorien absolut naheliegend und keineswegs abwegig. Aus einer medienökonomischen und journalistischen Perspektive lässt sich dieses Phänomen jedoch weitaus... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

From Skyline Drive: Organ Trail
Q: Are there real plans to create whole-body replacements or non-sentient organ sacs as an alternative to traditional transplants?
The episode presents theoretical frameworks and interviews that suggest these ideas are being explored conceptually, with clear caveats about current feasibility and ethical concerns; the cofounder emphasizes ongoing work with immunocompatible organs rather than head or full-body transplants.
The Organ Trail, with Mangesh Hattikudur
Q: Can you tell us a little bit about the headline issues with cloning human organs?
Cloning raises ethics about consent and what it means to replace an organ safely; it also prompts questions about how a clone would experience life and who has authority over its use.
Exercise Tiger: The Slapton Sands Cover-up
Q: Why did Exercise Tiger happen the way it did, and could it have been prevented?
The episode argues it was a combination of overambition, miscommunication, and inadequate protection for slow-moving landing craft, with live-fire exercises conducted under time pressure and frequency mismatches that left many troops unknowingly exposed to danger; improvements afterward suggest better coordination, safer ship formations, and standardized equipment.
Oh, DOGE!
Q: What happens next with Doge?
The situation remains unclear, with internal dissent indicating potential inefficiencies and ulterior motives behind its actions.
CLASSIC: Interview: Corruption, Conspiracy and Champions: Crime in the NBA
Q: Could you tell us a little bit about what Donaghy was going through that pushed him to this?
Donaghy was betting on the games he was officiating, which led him to manipulate game outcomes. His motivations were influenced by the substantial financial discrepancies between referees and players, as well as the enormous power referees have over game results.
