A melted community of stock pumpers and meme-makers obsessed with Palantir, the company founded by Peter Thiel and nursed to maturity by the CIA. In this episode we explore the history of Palantir including its work with ICE, the military industrial complex and various police forces. Then we dive into the PLTR subreddit where people are worshiping Alex Karp, the company's CEO, and encouraging others to invest in a company known for mass surveillance and using AI to enhance drone assassinations. Our guest is Katie Notopoulos, who wrote an article for Fast Company titled "How Palantir stock developed a weird, passionate, meme-crazy fan base".

Premium Episode 220: Pumping Palantir feat Katie Notopoulos (Sample)

An online community convinced they can change their race by watching and listening to youtube videos called "subliminals". The "Race Change To Another" or RCTA crowd have more tangible counterparts in figures like Oli London, a person who first garnered media attention for getting a bunch of plastic surgery to resemble a male K-POP star, and has since become a right wing talking head at the center of the anti-trans panic. A cursed episode for sure.

Premium Episode 222: Race Change To Another, Subliminals & Oli London (Sample)

Time Travel.  We’ve all fantasized about what could be possible if we possessed the ability to travel backwards or forwards through time; perhaps to see your favorite band in some small smokey venue before they were famous, or to prevent a horrible tragedy from taking place.  But what if you stumbled upon time travel completely by accident?  Where would you go?  What would you do?  This week, Jake, Brad, and Julian dive into the wondrous case of Mike “Mad Man” Marcum, a Coast to Coast AM caller who claimed to have built a Time Machine on his back porch in 1995.  We’ll follow Mike from his humble beginnings working in a cardboard box factory all the way through his rise to fame as one of Art Bell’s most memorable callers.  And of course, try to answer the most pertinent question of all: Did the madman actually do it?

The Spectral Voyager Episode 3:  Mike “Mad Man” Marcum (Sample)

A murderous "witch doctor" from South Africa and the ritual killing of teenagers and children. Basically the perfect script for Italian Americans to write. Jake, Julian and Liv tackle a listener submission: 2023's The Ritual Killer. The film has an inexplicably stacked cast: Morgan Freeman, Cole Hauser, Vernon Davis, Peter Stormare... and guess what? It's a masterpiece. No idea why it bombed.

Premium Episode 229: The Ritual Killer (2023) Movie Night (Sample)

We finally did a UFO episode, and it’s our retelling of one of the most confounding and mysterious cases on record: The Socorro Saucer. This case has all the makings of a cognitive conundrum: a credible main witness (Lonnie Zamora), secondary witnesses, physical evidence, the Air Force classifying it as unknown, and a lack of convincing alternate explanations. This UFOlogical tale is told in parallel with the story of the Jacques Cousteau of UFOs (and channeler of ascended masters), the swaggiest researcher of them all, Ray Stanford… who also found dinosaurs in a NASA parking lot. Featuring an interview with journalist skeptic-believer D. Dean Johnson.
