#134: Colin Dickey - "Under the Eye of Power: How Fear of Secret Societies Shapes American Democracy"
From the illuminati to the freemasons to the Kennedy assassination, Dr. Colin Dickey shows how conspiracy theories and American government aren't running on parallel tracks. Rather, he argues in his new book, "Under the Eye of Power: How Fear of Secret Societies Shapes American Democracy," our system of government has always worked hand-in-hand with those who believe in the unprovable. From Bigfoot to UFOs to planted diseases, Dickey explains that our belief our government must always show its cards leads to the insistence that anything we want to believe in but can't explain must be the result of a deceitful government. Understanding that relationship, he argues, is the key to the future of our nation.
