? Ladies and gentlemen, put on your tinfoil hats and let’s get down to business. Produced by iHeart, Stuff They Don’t Want You to Know is the perfect podcast for the conspiracy theorists among us. Hosted by Ben Bowlin, Matt Frederick, and Noel Brown, the podcast dives into every single conspiracy theory and inexplicable event out there, attempting to come up with explanations. The podcast is almost identical to iHeart’s Stuff You Should Know, but instead of dissecting general social, political, and daily issues, it dissects more of “what the government doesn’t want you to know,” wink wink, nudge nudge.

To all conspiracy theorists out there, we have good news: The podcast has over 2k episodes ready to stream. Topics tackled by the trio span both past and present — one episode tackles the strange night lights in the skies of New Zealand in the late ‘70s, the cause of which remains unknown, another asks “ Where did Noah’s Ark go? ”, and other episodes tackle AI, serial killers, political mysteries, and much more.

How the sun may sway the winds of war: In one episode, the trio dissects the theory developed by Soviet biophysicist Alexander Chizhevsky, which links cycles of solar activity to human behavior. The theory, Heliobiology, argues that when the sun reaches its zenith, it causes people to become more agitated, making them more susceptible to mass arousal and collective mobilization. Chizhevsky found that most major historical events, including revolutions and wars, coincided with peaks in social activity. The trio then asks, are humans prisoners of the sun?

The hosts’ insatiable curiosity is what makes this podcast stand out. Their conversational dynamic is incredibly entertaining, and the manner in which they navigate between talking points is masterfully smooth, making even the longest episodes a breeze. If you’re a fan of late-night conspiracy theory TikToks, you’ll want to check out this podcast.
