Luke and Cam are here to talk about UFOs. It's a bloody disappointment to be honest, but the show is good. But then we talk about Warnie, who is never a disappointment, even in death.

This week we are back looking at Havana syndrome. Then some other stuff like how Dezi Freeman relates to blackberry jam cakes, Russian Vids being a skeptic and debunker, and Nic Cage movies.

The three fellas are back looking at Australian icon, Laurina Fleure and her dirty street claims.

Luke and Cam are here to talk about british theme parks and flat whites.

It's all related somehow.

    Love this podcast! I always thought I’d never meet someone as crazy as the conspirators they talk about but I met a fella who thought post-natal abortions were an actual thing 😂 I listened to this podcast for about a year before I realised it was three blokes and not two 🤷‍♀️
