    Episode 36: The Bermuda Triangle

    Wide open spaces.  If the Chicks have taught us anything through their musical musings it's that such spaces are pretty neat. Or maybe terrible? Honestly I couldn't tell you any other lyrics to that particular song. But in any case, where else on this planet can you find more spaces of a wide open nature than the open ocean? I struggle to think of any. I personally find the open ocean utterly terrifying, but maybe sailor's dig it? At least most of it... On this episode we're discussing The Bermuda Triangle! This topic falls into a group with quicksand and falling coconuts of "things I worried an inordinate amount about as a child". Batten down the hatches matties!

    Episode 35: Cattle Mutilation

    You might argue that you can't really call a podcast bi-weekly when you constantly miss your upload date. I would heartily refute this argument if I could think of a single defense beyond "huff my shorts". Where's the beef?  This is the famous philosophical quandary posed by the almighty burger sorceress known only as Wendy. And how to answer such a weighty question? Unfortunately I can't tell you. I can tell you where a very small percentage of the beef is though. It's lying dead in a field after being mutilated under mysterious circumstances. In this episode we're discussing Cattle Mutilation. I suppose when you're a cattle rancher in a rural part of the US you've got a lot of time to consider who or what might have goofed around with your cattle corpses.

    Episode 34: The JFK Assassination Pt.2

    Are you really late anymore if you've been so consistently for three uploads? Only God can say. In any case we are back for the second part of our exploration of the JFK assassination. A lesser (but maybe more punctual) person would make a joke about how it's going to be mind-blowing. I strive for jokes only slightly more elevated. I'm thinking between the Blue Collar Comedy tour and the New Yorker. What do you get when you cross a New Orleans businessman and an Attorney General with a somewhat loose grasp on reality? The unedited Zapruder film of course! Follow us on Twitter: @wethesheeplepod Have a topic you think we should cover?

    Episode 33: The JFK Assassination Pt.1

    I regret to inform you that I can't make a joke about uploading a day late two episodes in a row. Therefore there will only be this humorless acknowledgement of my failure. You know what's not humorless? Assassination! Wait, that can't be right... On this episode we're talking about The JFK Assassination.

    Episode 32: The Military Entertainment Complex

    I'M NOT LATE, YOU'RE LATE!!!  I very intentionally didn't upload this episode on the normal day and made the extremely deliberate choice to upload it Thursday evening. I swear it on Devin's iridescent chitin. Here at Sheeple HQ we're well-oiled (on massage Mondays at least) and organized much like the world's best militaries. As it turns our being disciplined isn't the only thing a huge military needs to thrive, it also needs Tom Cruise. This episode we're discussing the Military Entertainment Complex, the little known but widely seen network of entertainment products sponsored by the US military. If it sounds weird, and perhaps a little dystopian, that's because it is! Follow us on Twitter: @wethesheeplepod Have a topic you think we should cover?

    Episode 31: Mass Shootings

    The satirical, US based news outlet The Onion reused an article over 20 times since 2014, making only slight changes to the dates and location. It sounds like lazy journalism (and trust me, I would know) until you see the headline "'No Way To Prevent This,' Says Only Nation Where This Regularly Happens" with a picture of a school, place of worship or a grocery store. If you're American, that context alone was likely enough to figure out that this article is about mass shootings. This episode we're doing a deep dive into mass shootings and why America seems to be uniquely stricken with them. We'll look at the real world circumstances, misinformation and conspiracies that surround these tragic, and yet predictable, events.

    Episode 30: MKUltra

    Silence. Deafening silence.  That's the sound of the frigid void left when your most favorite RSS feed (at least top 3, right? ... alright, top 10 then? ... fine, I'll settle for "listenable on a bi-weekly basis most of the time") goes dark for 3 months.  And then, breaking through you hear a rising tide of synth wave beeps and boops.  WE'RE BACK BABY!!! Like it or not we're set to continue our bi-weekly upload schedule after 3 months away. And boy are we coming back with a doozie: government sanctioned mind control experiments! This episode we're covering MKUltra, a true story about one of the darkest corners of the US government. I wouldn't consider this a feel good episode so buckle up!

    Episode 29: Russia's Invasion of Ukraine

    Hello Sheeple! This episode is going to be a little different than normal. My illustrious co-host Thom has been swamped at his day job as of late so we haven't had a chance to record new episodes. On the back of that I figured I'd do a short episode about the on-going invasion of Ukraine by Russia...it ended up being 45mins. Enjoy!
