À propos de ce contenu audio

Ever heard a conspiracy theory so wild you couldn’t help but ask - who’s pulling the strings, what would it take, and could anyone actually make it happen? Michelle has, and she’s bringing her sharp curiosity (and a guest) to find out. Each episode of The Conspiracy Consultants unpacks a different theory, testing its logic, logistics, and sheer audacity. It’s part thought experiment, part comedy, and all the fun of wondering “what if?” without needing a tinfoil hat.

    • Flouride is Poisoning Us with Jamie Macrae

      Flouride is Poisoning Us with Jamie Macrae
      Jan 20 2026
      Fluoride, pasteurised milk, bottled water, vapes - if you wanted to control society using liquids, where would you even start? Michelle and Jamie take the long-running fear that “they’re putting something in the water” and run with it, unpacking how everyday substances became vessels for anxieties about government power, health, trust, and who gets blamed when things go wrong. With the groundwork laid, Jamie and Michelle shift from analysis to invention, designing a product they'd want to introduce to the market given half a chance and a budget.

    • We Live in a Simulation with Edward Spence

      We Live in a Simulation with Edward Spence
      Jan 6 2026
      We might be living in a simulation - but if we are, wow, whoever's running it is doing an astonishing amount of admin. Michelle is joined by longtime friend and game designer Edward Spence to take the simulation theory seriously and start stress-testing it, from the computing power needed to render the universe to the number of writers it would take to storyboard a single human life. As the conversation unfolds, reality begins to resemble a sprawling writer’s room, complete with NPCs, branching storylines, personality archetypes, cheat codes, and the occasional mid-season rewrite. What emerges isn’t proof that none of this is real, but a growing appreciation for just how much coordination, labour, and narrative intent would be required to fake it.
