Big Pharma. The deep state. The crisis actors. Alien life. Spy agencies and cover ups. Whatever it is, award winning journo Richard Baker and Dr Nick Coatsworth are your guides on the search for the kernel of truth. Conspiracies are everywhere right now. But, we don’t peddle theories, we go to their point of origin and follow the breadcrumbs to sort the bullsh*t from the verified, while keeping an open mind to things that can’t be explained. Rich has spent years exposing the crooked and corrupt, and Nick has copped death threats from people who thought he was one of THEM. They know what real cover-ups look like, and they also know what happens when paranoia meets the algorithm. Sometimes the conspiracy is real. Sometimes it's designed to sell you on something. Often, it's both. Our mission is to entertain and inform. Rather than condemn and judge.

He arrived in London with almost nothing. He became, for one day in September 1992, the man who broke the Bank of England — and pocketed a billion dollars doing it. And somewhere between that refugee boy and the most vilified billionaire on the planet, George Soros became something else entirely: a shape onto which half the world projects its fears. The secret funder of every protest. The architect of open borders. The puppet-master behind prosecutors, presidents, and pandemics. The globalist. The name that arrives, sooner or later, in almost every modern conspiracy theory. The thing is, some of it is documented. He does fund political causes, on a scale that is genuinely extraordinary. His Open Society Foundations have spent billions reshaping legal systems, media organisations, and civil society groups across dozens of countries. Governments have expelled his operations. His own birth country has passed laws bearing his name. So where does the documented end — and the mythology begin? In this episode, Richard Baker and Dr. Nick Coatsworth go looking for the real George Soros underneath the legend: the man, the money, and the machine — and ask why his name has become the answer to so many questions that were never really about him. - The Black Wednesday trade, what he actually did, why it worked, and what it tells us about how he sees the world - The Open Society Foundations — what they fund, who benefits, and whether \"promoting democracy\" is as neutral as it sounds - The prosecutor pipeline — the DA races, the criminal justice reform agenda, and how much of the backlash is legitimate criticism versus something older and uglier - The antisemitism question —…","meta_description":"He was fourteen years old when he helped his father forge documents to survive the Nazi occupation of Budapest.
