Tin Foil HatOct 7, 2026
Comedian Joey B Toonz joins Tin Foil Hat for a freewheeling conversation that mixes cultural grievances with a run of conspiracy claims. The host argues that the real 9/11 cover-up involves World Trade Center Building 6, which he says housed a money-laundering investigation called the El Dorado Task Force and was gutted rather than fully destroyed. The episode also touches on claims that the Moon landings were faked, that people who act strangely may be aliens or 'NPCs', that viruses don't exist, and on 15-minute cities, vaccine kickbacks, and the occult history of upstate New York.

Mysterious Universe hosts Joe Hodgkin and Brandon Thomas interview longtime friend Chris Mathieu of Forbidden Knowledge News about the 2020 meditative contact with what he calls his higher self, which told him to quit his corporate job, heal his childhood trauma, and use psilocybin mushrooms. Chris describes battling inner demons during monthly heroic-dose mushroom trips, the DMTx extended-state experiments where volunteers report being expelled by mantis beings and greys, and his view of consciousness as a cosmic field that splits into individual lives. The conversation also explores a speculative theory that data centers host real-time digital avatars of every person, built to predict behavior and nudge it like mind control.
