Baseless Conspiracies Ep. 184: Call-In Show, UFOs, Woke Odyssey and Iran Strategy
from Badlands Media · host Badlands Media
Episode 184 is a call-in show, and the audience delivers. Jon Herold and Zak Paine open with a reaction to Christopher Nolan's Odyssey trailer, breaking down the DEI casting choices that put Elliot Page as Achilles and Lupita Nyong'o as Helen of Troy, and the Oscar diversity requirements that made it happen. From there, the conversation covers the UFO file releases and Jon's concern that the slow rollout is setting up a future "alien creation story" op designed to replace God with extraterrestrials. A caller shares a strange experience with Fitbit's AI repeatedly telling her to "plug in" using language that sounded less like health advice and more like machine self-description. Later callers bring up weather modification, cloud seeding, and the NEXRAD radar connections, prompting Jon and Zak to discuss Iran now getting rain after radar facilities were reportedly destroyed. The show closes with Jon's argument that Trump's Iran operation is as much about removing Israel's pretext for regional war as it is about Iran, and what Netanyahu's stated plan to wean off US aid actually signals.
