Theories are debated regarding John F. Kennedy, fake pigeons and dodgy mattress stores. There is also a look at mysteries such as the cases of Amelia Earhart, D.B. Cooper and Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid. The two hosts also broach the subject of the psychology of believing in conspiracies and the lionization of such dubious figures as criminals Cooper, Bonnie and Clyde and Butch and Sundance. Dr. Bourgeois gets Mr. Miller's goat, Mr. Miller takes it head long and hilarity ensues. ## Actions - request_transcript: `POST https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/the-old-school-3916563/episodes/episode-147-on-mysteries-and-conspiracies/transcription-requests` — Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode. - read_markdown: `GET https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-old-school-3916563/episode-147-on-mysteries-and-conspiracies.md` — Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource.
