676 // Missing & Dead Scientists - Part 2 of 2

from Missing · host Crawlspace Media

In this new episode, ⁠Crawlspace Media⁠'s Tim Pilleri and Lance Reenstierna discuss the phenomenon of the missing and deceased scientists. When retired Air Force General McCasland and a brilliant NASA metallurgist Monica Reza vanished without a trace, the internet ignited with theories of a coordinated global conspiracy targeting top defense and space researchers. In this episode we separate viral fiction from devastating reality, tracing these 14 distinct cases of missing and deceased scientists that has fueled an online firestorm. This is part two of two.
