Magic Mystery & Media: The View From the Edge

In this week's episode, John and Adam tackle the Parkland School Shooting conspiracies, the disinformation, and outright bullshit surrounding this tragic event.

Shouts of "False Flag" and "Crisis Actor" are all too common these days and, far more often than not, without merit. We'll dissect these claims and, hopefully, contribute a little critical thinking to the conversation.

In the second half, John breaks down the recent Mueller indictments of the 13 so-called "Russian Trolls" who apparently had so much influence they were able to swing an entire election. This whole thing is starting to turn into a bad Hollywood comedy.

And finally, Adam provides a brief explanation for all the recent Black Panther hype. Hint: Marketing.

That is all.

Google Earth captures alien abduction? 1950s TV show predictive programming. Chaos and Choronzon rising from the abyss!

Hostage to the Devil chronicles Malachi Martin's life in America as an exile priest. Disillusioned with the reforms of the Second Vatican Council, he broke from the Jesuit order and moved to New York City. There, he embarked on a second career as a writer and exorcist. This film - now on Netflix - presents a portrait of a complex man who struggled with his own demons as he battled the dark forces afflicting others.
