Paranoid Planet
PARANOID PLANET is a podcast about conspiracy theories, paradigm shifts, and critical thinking that offers serious and lighthearted conversations with people who believe in conspiracy theories, and with the skeptics who critique them. We also explore historical, philosophical, artistic, psychological, and scientific themes related to conspiracies and the study of knowledge. Whether you are an avid conspiracy follower or a hardened skeptic, our aim is to help you become a better critical thinker and a proponent of healthy public discourse.

The one where we kick off our third season by chewing the alien fat with our favorite interdimensional oracle and space traveler, religious studies scholar James Jervis, and review Steven Spielberg's classic sci-fi-horror-fairy-tale Close Encounters of the Third Kind with the help of philosophy professor Matthew Newland. Brought to you by a stellar dining experience fit for a galactic overlord.
