I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. I love conspiracies. I love all kinds of rumors and blind items. The seedy hoaxy underbelly of the internet. All of it.
Dave, not so much.
This episode is exactly what the title says. I pick one story from each category and go over them with a disbelieving Dave.
First, we have our Deep Dark Secret.
Don Henley was arrested in November of 1980 after he was found with TWO NAKED UNDERRAGED GIRLS at his mansion on Mulholland Drive. That’s not a rumor. Not a conspiracy. That happened.
Drummer arrested on Drug Charges by Kurt Loder
Maybe just one of the few times the title is no where near as salacious as the story.
Eagle Arrested
How ’bout that. Another ho-hum headline.
Read the entire story in this amazing blind item from Crazy Days And Nights.
Blind Item #1 – He Made Millions From Raping Young Girls — Himmmm
Next we went with an Unsolved Mystery. Here we bring up everyone’s favorite Time Traveler. John Titor.
John claimed to be a soldier from 2036, sent back to 1975 to retrieve a computer. He then did a quick side trip to 2000 where he set up some accounts online and posted in chat rooms and message boards. To this day there are people out there who swear he was the real deal.
Here are some links to his original posts from way back when:
John Titor’s Faxes to Art Bell
John Titor’s Original Chat log [10/14/00]
John Titor’s Thread on Art Bell’s Message Board [01/27/01]
Also, the John Titor Foundation website is still up and still wishing both Johns “Good Luck.”
Finally, we have our Conspiracy Theory [or is it?]:
Q Anon.
Dave didn’t really know anything about Q or The Great Awakening. I try to explain it to him, but I think you already know how that goes.
Also, I reveal an interesting discovery I made while doing a little Q research online.
Anyhooooooo, it was another fun episode for us! Thanks for listening! Like and subscribe if you feel so inclined.
