  • Geoff Shepard on Watergate
    Apr 6 2026
    Geoff Shepard is one of the 2 leading voices on Watergate that was actually there. He worked in DC at the time after graduating from Harvard Law School. He became a white house fellow in 1969 and he served on President Richard Nixon’s White House staff for 5 years, including a year as deputy counsel on the president’s Watergate defense team. He has spent much of his career researching Watergate issues and is today the foremost authority on behind-the-scenes developments, both at the White House and the Watergate Special Prosecution Force, as the scandal unfolded. He has written 3 books and produced 2 documentary films, as well as an off-Broadway stage play about the internal prosecutorial documents he’s uncovered, many of which are posted on his website.

    Geoff has been asked to talk on this topic by a variety of outlets to include Tucker Carlson, Fox News, and One America News, to name a few. In anticipation of the upcoming Watergate Deep Dive, Geoff lends credibility to the conspiracies about Watergate.

  • From Ally to Enemy: The CIA’s Secret War on Fidel Castro
    Apr 1 2026
    How did the United States go from quietly supporting Fidel Castro’s rise… to plotting his removal at all costs?
    In this episode, we’re diving deep into one of the most shocking turns in Cold War history—where propaganda, covert operations, and controversial plans blurred the line between defense and deception.
    From America’s early influence over Cuba following the Spanish-American War, to the rise and fall of Fulgencio Batista, and the unexpected ascent of Castro—this story is filled with hidden agendas and uncomfortable truths.We break down:
    • The events that helped Castro take power
    • The U.S. government’s knowledge of his communist ties
    • The failed Bay of Pigs Invasion
    • The secretive Operation Mongoose
    • And the disturbing proposals behind Operation Northwoods
    You’ll also learn how these events led directly into the Cuban Missile Crisis—bringing the world closer to nuclear war than ever before.Was it strategy… or something much deeper?

I love this conspiracy theory podcast, Dani you do such a good job of explaining the subject and it's history

Excellent

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.

It becomes obvious within minutes that the host is basically narrating straight off a script, like they’re speed-reading a school report they didn’t even write. There’s zero sense of curiosity, no original thought, no moment where you feel the host actually grappled with the ideas they’re presenting. I came looking for wild theories, twists, and that delicious “wait… WHAT?” feeling you expect from a conspiracy podcast. Instead, I left convinced I could’ve pulled up the same material—practically word for word—from Wikipedia and saved myself the time. It’s less “rabbit hole” and more “PowerPoint presentation someone forgot to spice up.”

When reading a Wiki Page aloud is a podcast
