Tom Phillips (Humans; Truth) and Jonn Elledge (The Compendium of Not Quite Everything) team up to debunk the greatest conspiracy theories humans have ever espoused - to teach us how not to fall for them.

From the Satanic Panic to the anti-vaxx movement, it's always been human nature to believe we're being lied to by the powers that be (and sometimes, to be fair, we absolutely are).

But while it can be fun to indulge in a bit of Deep State banter on the family Whatsapp group, recent times have shown us that some of these theories have taken on a life of their own - and in our dogged quest for the truth, it appears we might actually be doing it some damage.

In Conspiracy, Tom Phillips and Jonn Elledge take us on a fascinating, insightful and often hilarious journey through conspiracy theories old and new, to try and answer an important question: how can we learn to log off the QAnon message boards, and start trusting hard evidence again?

Praise for the Brief History series:

'Witty, entertaining and slightly distressing' Sarah Knight, author of The Life-Changing Magic of Not Giving a F*ck

'Brilliant. Utterly, utterly brilliant' Jeremy Clarkson

'Very funny' Mark Watson

'Both readable and entertaining' Telegraph

Interesting book on the background and history of a lot of todays popular conspiracy theories. I would have liked more on the QAnon / Trump era however it’s packing a lot in. The narration was inaudible at times for me with the second reader (I couldn’t always make out his sentences).

Overall an interesting background to conspiracy theories

The book is great, but the narrators, especially John, read extremelly fast - you barely catch what he is saying! I recommend listening to John’s parts on 0,85x and Tom’s parts on 0,95x.

The narrators read way to fast

Really enjoyable look at the history of conspiracy theory. Probably a book everyone should listen to, but those that really need to won't.
Highly recommended.

Excellent

I particularly enjoyed the history of the Illuminati in this book, there were other tantalising stories, but I thought it was padded out with some stuff that would have been better unsaid.
I was hoping for a bit more of a clarification on some of the recent conspiracies of the Trump era, but it wasn’t to be.

God only knows

Nicely done, but a bit dry.... Not too dry, you understand, but needs your full attention.

Nicely done.
