For our listeners, this show is not about telling you what to believe—but about examining why people believe what they do. Each episode breaks down well-known and lesser-known conspiracies by looking at their origins, historical context, psychological appeal, and the evidence both for and against them. We separate speculation from fact, encourage healthy skepticism, and emphasize media literacy in an age of information overload. Conspiracy 101 invites you to question responsibly, think independently, and stay grounded—because curiosity is powerful, but clarity matters even more.","last_synced_at":"2026-06-14T06:17:22.359074+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/conspiracy-101-7818303"},"episode":{"title":"Conspiracy 101, in its first season, features Bigfoot: Where the Evidence Begins","slug":"conspiracy-101-in-its-first-season-features-bigfoot-where-the-evidence-begins","published_at":"2026-06-04T05:25:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/conspiracy-101-7818303/conspiracy-101-in-its-first-season-features-bigfoot-where-the-evidence-begins","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/conspiracy-101-7818303","url":"https://bleav.com/shows/conspiracy-101/episodes/conspiracy-101-in-its-first-season-features-bigfoot-where-the-evidence-begins/","audio_url":"https://injector.simplecastaudio.com/15967a7f-2d09-407b-8224-4d9648d8af8d/episodes/53d76062-b92c-4cb8-9e00-005c3779b8db/audio/128/default.mp3?aid=rss_feed&awCollectionId=15967a7f-2d09-407b-8224-4d9648d8af8d&awEpisodeId=53d76062-b92c-4cb8-9e00-005c3779b8db&feed=ClWfEsPp","summary":"An intriguing exploration into one of the world's most enduring mysteries.
