at how ridiculous conspiracy theories are? One of the funniest things to me is how the interviewees are always so secretive and afraid for the lives of themselves and family, yet thought always show up on camera.
shareYeah usually I watch it for laughs and it never fails to provide at least a couple. The only episode where I actually agreed with the 'conspiracy' viewpoint is the one on Wall Street. I love how most of the interviewees behave, and as you say their secretiveness. A lot of the meetings in all the episodes are so stereotypical, right out of a bad X files episode, complete with vans, abandoned parking garages and cigarette smoking. My favorite "expert" so far is the guy who always says "How very astute of you" when someone agrees with and repeats what he said. He's been in a few episodes, don't remember exactly which ones.
share'how very astute of you' yes! that guy. it was in some almost british accent.
Season's Greetings!
People who do not think or have anything to back up their claims that there are not any conspiracies.
The farm animals that are already brainwashed into believing anything without thinking.
In short, non-thinking, farm animals watch to just laugh.
I can say without a shadow of a doubt Ventura and Alex Jones are not Conpiracy researchers.
William Cooper was one. (Hour of the Time)

The show is entertaining on several levels.
You don't have to be a "farm animal" to watch it.
If you have a brain you can separate the fact from the fiction in the show.
Like in the JFK one the "smoking gun" was a recording of someone talking about the "big event" - for a death bed confession it was very vague
“When fascism comes to America, it will be wrapped in the flag and carrying the cross.”
"If you have a brain you can separate the fact from the fiction in the show."
That is the key to enjoying Conspiracy Theory. You have to take each episode on its own merits, as well as the individual claims in those episodes. Some are interesting, some are scary, and some are funny as hell.
Also gotta love the sound effects and "music" they add.
And yeah it really does seem like a cheesy x-files rip off sometimes.
The only thing missing on this show is the laugh track
shareWell whilst I've only watched one episode and don't like it's style, I understand that it's only trying to appeal to the lowest common denominator in a desperate hope to show them the world they really live in.
Shame that the lowest common denominator is THAT dumbed down that all they can do is laugh.
We'll only get what we deserve.
Thanks morons for spoiling it for the few who care.
Now if only you could refute the accusations with facts people might take you seriously.
Keep on laughing whilst you can idiots.
You're just way too clever for the information when it's packaged this way.
Hahaheehee - The presenter acts like a bit of a tool, and the show is like some bad 90's typical American junk TV - That's comedy gold!
Golden as Friends.
I'd love to watch this show with James Randi and Penn Jillette.
shareI love how its on TruTV, which is owned by Time Warner, which all these conspiracy theorists like Alex Jones claim are evil Illuminati members? These freaks just cash in on people's paranoia.
shareI think the way the show is shot is what makes it ridiculous. It's so overly dramatic. They call the room they all meet in Jesse's "War Room"? Give me a break! During promos for the show it looks like he's talking from some secret underground bunker (presumably to give the show a mysterious feel), it's all pretty cheesy. The cheesiest part of every show, though, is when Jesse Ventura finally "confronts" whoever is believed to be responsible for the conspiracies. So fake! He'd never be allowed within a hundred yards of these people with his camera crew behind him. What a crock!
shareI've only seen the first episode so far, but it was amazing. Granted I'm sure there are plenty of irregularities and mysteries befind that HAARP thing (and probably all of the other things in the show), but the way that information is presented is nothing short of hilarious.
There were so many great moments, but the best bit had to be Jesse saying, "so, in layman's terms, you're talking about an invisible death ray." Or maybe it was him using that MIND CONTROL device that guy made, and then saying (or maybe the awesome voiceover guy said it), "now Jesse has sampled the power of HAARP first hand..."
So good. I think this and Steven Seagal: Lawman are the best two televisions programmes to come out in the past decade.
Emily? Who's Emily?
I think it's great. Only seen the harp episode but will check out others for sure!
Love how they dramatize it so much. Haven't laughed so much in a long while...this is what entertainment is all about and after a long day at work it's nice to turn my brain off and watch something like this.
If I didn't laugh I'd cry. The amount of people who actually totally believe this stuff is massive and growing by the day...almost like a new religion of sorts. They really need to start pushing science harder and from younger ages in schools.
Haha, some of it makes you wonder, but a lot of it... well. One of my friends is obssesed with the stuff; he thinks lizard people are running the world and that there is a secret base on the moon. And other things our friend Jesse would approve of.
I have to say I am a little disappointed with the show, though. I was initialy expecting it to be Jesse telling you what a bunch of crap these things all are and how stupid liberals are for believing them, and for people to get lives. But I guess the reality is just as good.
Emily? Who's Emily?
chrismprentice,
They really need to start pushing science harder and from younger ages in schools.
Yeah... and the Sleeper Assassins episode wasn't ridiculous? Oh my god, that *beep* was awful. The so-called Sleeper Assassin agrees to talk with a television show!? I mean... at least put on something else than sweatpants if you want the retards to believe you. And the goat-killer? HAHAHAHAHA... it's *beep* hilarious!
I have to admit tho: a few of the episodes were quiet interesting. Some interesting facts were presented.
"Why don't you tell me how science can debunk any of these theories? The only theory that I found to be suspicious was the 2012 one"
It wouldn't take much science to drive a semi trailer through all the holes in these loopy conspiracy theories. Any real scientist / engineer would be wasting their time debunking most of them, it would be an exorcise in both the obvious and futility.
People who believe in conspiracy theories tend to already have their mind made up. For example if 99.9% of the worlds Structural engineers (the people on this planet most qualified to understand building design from the aspect of structural integrity and collapse), went on record publically supporting what really happened on 9/11, ie the official report of what brought down the 3 buildings, and 0.1% of the worlds Structural engineers agreed with likes of Charlie Sheen, which side would the majority of "truthers" agree with?
A. The side with 99.9% of the scientific support (those that really matter)
or
B. The side with 0.1% of the scientific support and Charlie, Jesse, Alex
If you guessed B. you win an autographed copy of Alex Jone's upcoming book "Barking At The Moon - A Cautionary Tale"
We already know that most "truthers" would simply dismiss any number of qualified scientists or engineers (no matter how large) as government shills, disinfo agents, or traitors bought off by the Illuminati.
For the record, 99.9% of the worlds structural engineers either support the official events, ie NIST report, or have not gone on public record as disputing it.

And where did you get these numbers from? Oh right you just pulled them out of your ass like the government did with their 9/11 explanations which didn't even have real investigations backing any of it. And yes I know you said it was just an example, but that top paragraph is just crap out of your ass
Why don't you tell me how science can debunk any of these theories? The only theory that I found to be suspicious was the 2012 one.
wait: you doubt the death ray?
Life's like a Cabo Carne Asada: never know how spicy it's gunna get.
So you believe everything the news and mass media claims to be true?
shareThere's something called "reasoning" people with brains do. You can believe some of the things you see on the news and discount others using that mythical essence in our heads.
Also, Fox News IS basically a conspiracy machine, so I don't see your point completely.
Yep, laugh it up.....when your freedoms are gone and you are sitting in a room filled with your fellow Americans, under Martial Law....think how funny that will be. Will you still be laughing? Wake up, your freedoms are slowly taken away from you every day.
shareWas there a point in posting this message in this thread, or is this just a non sequitur?
shareDid you have a point or did your mommy drop you on your head?
shareWell, I think we just discovered who the nutjob of the group is. Martial law, you gotta love it. LOL
shareWhat do you think armed guards in schools are? What do you think increase police forces in and around Malls? What do you think increased police presences at airports, Universities and in Cities is? Wake up....use your brains. Laugh it up.....
shareI served in the army over 20 years ago, I know what martial law is, and it's obvious you don't. Martial law is military imposed enforcement when civilian authority has lost control. States and cities asking for more security is NOT martial law. It's the state asking for assistance, but it is still under civilian rule.
shareLOL, if you truly served for 20 years.....you would know how martial law starts. Police here and there, extra guards at airports, then the military slowly starts to take over.... The state? Who do you think runs states? Our government? You really can't be that stupid can you?
Everyday, martial law is becoming a reality. Give it time......watch and you will see. What you think is a 'joke' today will be a reality tomorrow.
Laugh it up....
You're purposely being ignorant, because I said I served 20 years ago, but not for 20 years. Also, look up the definition of martial law, because the government is run by civilians, not soldiers. You are wrong, and obviously into stupid conspiracy crap.
The only thing you are being reasonable about is the gun control, but this and abortion issues have always been two of the biggest hit points in politics which help a candidate win or lose an election.
Some people will never get it. I've stopped caring about whether or not I can wake up a brain dead person or not.
shareYep, laugh it up.....when your freedoms are gone and you are sitting in a room filled with your fellow Americans, under Martial Law....think how funny that will be. Will you still be laughing? Wake up, your freedoms are slowly taken away from you every day.
Are you kidding? A government is going to mass kill its people,usher the majority to FEMA camps,and hold them prisoner under the guise of "Martial Law"? OK,think about it,how are these people going to work and make money to spend it to further the taxes the government will require to house and feed these prisoners? 325 million people,kill 50%....so you are left 162.5 million people in 50 states that the Feds will have to house,clothe,feed,and supply health care,sewer facilities....much like them all being in a Jail proper.Now how does the Government get any money to pay the FEMA and Army workers who will be needed to "guard" 162.5 million people? With no tax income from workers,the Fed will have to threaten other countries for "free" supplies.How long will that work? Have the world bomb and attack the US for its threats,and have total nuclear disaster? Why are people gullible enough to believe any of this junk? Yes,freedoms are being taken away,but thats for a reason...the security of the country.FEMA camps are for disasters or to house victims of mass terrorist attacks.You need concentration camps for those who en mass decide to attack this country.Remember WWII and the Japanese prisoners in the US? Just because stuff is on the internet does not make any of it real.For some reason people are more paranoid now than ever.
well this show labels the bad guys as government but the real truth is the bad guys are people behind it. most people think the gvnmt or their president is the supreme power, but there people you don't heard about way powerful than your president/Obama. these guys decide what goes on.
so to speak, the gvnmt itself is not bad. its like religion: the top of the top liners knows what's right and wrong though they spilled the wrong to the bottom feeders, now you can't blame a simple priest/pastor/religion-nuts for using the bible as fact source or fighting over simple proven scientific method?
its like the western presidents, i know since 90's that presidents are not random(sometimes the dot changes, but those usually don't last).
the show sometimes exaggerated things but everything its actually in the real.
they said, the biggest trick the devil pulled is to make people think he doesn't exist.
the best part of all? the show is even modest on some atrocities committed with these black projects.
if you know what the third world countries enduring, why those are kept in poverty and all, you will know these are just the top of the ice.
assignment for the day: Do you wonder why you can see so much shows/tvs about racism/all kind of crap but none or almost nothing about slavery?
The government will just use some ancient alien tech they've been holding onto for years that allows mind control and memory deletion. That way they can manipulate the military without having to fund them and no one will ask questions. Then Will Smith will travel back in time to seek out and destroy this tech and save us all. duh
shareYou really can't be that dumb can you? Do you think I am going to base what I am saying on 'the internet'?
First off, you government is already killing you. You are just to stupid to realize it. Investigate what is in the food you eat on a daily basis. Food that the federal government 'approves'.
Gun control now one of the biggest thing in the so called 'media'. They intend on taking your guns away! Open your eyes!
They are talking about putting armed guards in schools. We are begging for it since the shooting at Sandy Hook. What is an armed guard? Steps toward martial law. Do you really believe a kid who dresses in full body armor would instantly kill himself?
Who said they are going to feed prisoners in the Fema camps? What do you think the coffins are for?
You have to realize they are going to need slaves to work their fields.
It is not just our government. It is the rich elite. That is the part no one seems to understand.
Keep watching the news over the few months. There is going to be more and more a push for gun control. There will be more 'shootings'. Our government will come out and say 'Its time to put armed guards in malls, schools, beaches and more'.
Then you will sit there and laugh and laugh.....and when they come for you.....will you be laughing then? Wake up! How much more evidence do you need
AAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA OH GAWDD BRO PLEASE... AHAHAHAHA.. NO PLEASE GO ON!!!
There's one fatal flaw in all of your conspiracy theories: the soldiers and police forces of America aren't some mindless robots that do whatever their bosses tell them no matter how ridiculous. Soldiers and police officers and the like are human beings that can make their own decisions. Now you tell me, without saying they are all chipped or brainwashed or something, you tell me that there wouldn't be a huge resistance to any kind of unjust martial law within the organizations doing the work. Do you think police officers would forcibly herd their family and friends into FEMA death camps?
And EVEN IF, for whatever conspiratorial reason, the military and police forces would do whatever the government told them, you have to realize that THERE ARE SAFEGUARDS IN PLACE FOR THIS SORT OF THING. There's something called the "Balance of Power", in which, neither the President, nor the House, nor the Senate, nor the Supreme Court, and ESPECIALLY non-elected government bodies like the FBI, FEMA, and the CIA, can do anything that goes against the constitution. And for this I point you to the Fourth Amendment to the Constitution, and I quote:
"The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized."
And Section One of the Fourteenth Amendment:
"All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws."
Now you may say "lol useless paper", but my last point is that America isn't alone in the world, and I guarantee you that if our government were to take over the country and force people into FEMA death camps, that oppressive government would go the way of Nazi Germany.
That was longer than I was planning, but I think I got my point across.
Good post. I've had to explain to conspiracy idiots that soldiers, I was one and many guys I know are still serving wouldn't start rounding up their neighbors to be thrown in cells for execution.
The fact that Jesse himself was in the military and was a governor PROVES the point even further. Yeah, he's a conspiracy nut, but why wasn't he brainwashed by the government?
Some of it is a little ridiculous, and some of it is common sense. Like the wall street and water episodes, which are right on the money.
