After digging deeper into the supposed string of mysterious scientist deaths, the Lads start asking a different question: how much of the conspiracy actually holds up? This episode focuses heavily on Amy Eskridge, her anti-gravity research, the strange claims surrounding her life, and the point at which legitimate science begins to blur into conspiracy. Along the way, the conversation dives into bad science communication, Graham Hancock, David Paulides, time travel, and how easy it is to build a theory when you stop looking for evidence that proves you wrong.Welcome back to The Lore Lads....0:00 Intro0:25 Are the Scientist Deaths Actually Connected?5:34 The Amy Eskridge Case8:17 When the Conspiracy Starts Falling Apart9:06 Amy’s Institute for Exotic Sciences11:46 Mental Health or Something More?14:45 Was Any of Amy’s Research Real?19:05 The Shadow Force Detour22:29 Breaking Down the Anti-Gravity Claims27:21 Why Scientists Are Terrible at Naming Things32:05 How Bad Science Communication Creates Conspiracies35:07 Graham Hancock, David Paulides & Bad Debunks42:40 Science Changes Faster Than You Think46:26 When Time Travel Turns Science Into Fantasy52:20 The People Around Amy Failed Her56:50 How Conspiracy Theories Build Themselves1:00:52 Learning to Admit Your Theory Was Wrong

Boulder Police Patrol Officer Rick French stood outside the doorway of 755 Fifteenth Street. It was 5:56am. A woman in her late thirties opened the door, dressed in a red sweater and black slacks. She did not bother introducing herself to the patrolman; she probably didn’t need to. Once she began to explain that her six year old daughter JonBenét Ramsey was missing, Officer French would have known precisely who he was talking to. What he didn't know was that he was now the first responding officer to what would become one of the most famous and controversial homicide investigations of all time. This is part one of our coverage of the murder of JonBenét Ramsey. Welcome back to The Lore Lodge...

Don't question it.

In this week's episode, Thornbury found a tiny Betz Sphere. Naturally, this launches the Lads into a full investigation of the Betz Sphere and the strange world of questionable orbs, bad sponsors, witchcraft, Assassin’s Creed, and an argument about Star Wars. Welcome back to the Lore Lads....

After an unexpected loss for Thomas Massie in Kentucky, due in large part to his stance on both Iran and the Epstein issue, it is more important now that ever to bring further light to this issue. With still so many documents uninvestigated, and so much chaos keeping people too preoccupied to dive in, we ask some of the questions we think are prescient at this point: What is left undiscovered, who is implicated and absolved as a result, and why do Trump and the MAGA movement seem to have so drastically switched up on their position of their release? Today, we walk through the timeline as we know it, and do what we can to keep the conversation going, to uncover the truth, wherever that may lead. Welcome back to The Lore Lads...
