How do you determine what level of truth is behind a conspiracy theory?

In Episode #352 of 'Musings' Juan and I discuss: a looooong article Juan found from Twitter, how we decide if a conspiracy theory has some validity, personality traits that influence our views of them, why I think you really only need to believe one for the good benefits, some faves of MK ULTRA & Area 51, why I am not only a sheep but a willing sheeple, warning signs that something is BS and whether the FTX shitshow had some deep state level manipulation going on.

A huge thanks to Dave Jones, Liam F and Petar for supporting the show! We really do appreciate it.

As always, we hope you enjoy. Mere Mortals out!
