I find this podcasts great and inspiring. What do you think about this? Are they all crazy or biased?  http://www.thestar.com/news/gta/2014/03/18/new_ad_campaign_in_ttc_stations_presents_alternative_911_theory.html

my least podcast so far , two scientists confirming their biases and arguing that they are absolutely correct. Booooring.

The fun thing about having friends into conspiracy theories is they'll watch some fictional TV like the X-Files and say to me, "See even the X-Files knows the truth." I just laugh and shake my head. I've been plaugued by these ideas, and it helps to understand the difference between the grand and mundane. There seems to be a human desire for closure, a sense that if I don't have the answer I'm somehow stupid or an outsider. It's taken me some maturing to get over the idea that not knowing something is ok. It's far more important for me to know what I assert is acurate than asserting what is popular. There was an X-Files episode in the mid '90's that asserted the plastic strip in US bills was a tracking device. This gained traction with Rush Limbaugh fans because he said the same thing on his radio show.

You Are Not So Smart -- Every Episode

This is a track I have done few years ago but never shared. It's a very old piano composition I recorded few years ago, when i had access to a recording studio. I release it here for #pianoday2021. It includes piano, clarinet, glockenspiel and lot of textures / sounds I recorded. I hope you will enjoy it.

Who is pulling the strings? Who is behind the coverup? Who holds the real power, and what do they want? How deep does the conspiracy to control your mind go?

In this episode we discuss the history, social impact, neuroscience, and psychology behind conspiracy theories and paranoid thinking.

Our guests are Steven Novella and Jesse Walker. Steven is a leader in the skeptic community, host of The Skeptic's Guide to the Universe, and a neurologist at Yale University's School of Medicine. Walker is the books editor for Reason Magazine and author of the new book, The United States of Paranoia, a Conspiracy Theory. 

Listen as they explain why we love conspiracy theories, how they flourish, how they harm, and what they say about a culture.
