    I use to love this podcast have been a subscriber for about 3-4 yrs. Everyday I would find something super interesting and I learned so much from Mel and his guests.

  • The most pleasant conspiracy podcast listening experience!

    Mel’s audio production makes this show a true listening pleasure. I hope he keeps putting out public interviews.

    Would love to hear an interview/debate with Mel or Jeran and Richard Hoagland. He makes a pretty compelling case that we did go to the moon.
