    Seems Sus: Selective Outrage

    MAKE SURE TO FOLLOW/SUBSCRIBE TO THE SEEMS SUS PODCAST BELOW OR WHEREVER YOU LISTEN TO PODCASTS! https://www.spreaker.com/show/6861857/episodes/feed In this episode of Seems Sus, Brandon and Ed tackle selective outrage, political tribalism, manufactured narratives, and the growing emotional fallout of the last decade. From social media misinformation and viral panic to post pandemic anger and identity driven conflict, the conversation explores why society feels more divided, hostile, and confused than ever. We question why people blindly defend systems they distrust, why outrage shifts depending on who is in power, and how fear based narratives keep repeating with new faces and new excuses. Outrage has become the default state of modern society. In this episode of Seems Sus, Brandon and Ed examine how selective outrage, misinformation, and political obsession fuel constant conflict while nothing ever truly changes. The discussion covers social media manipulation, fake headlines, AI misinformation, and how easily false claims spread when they align with existing beliefs. From exaggerated crisis narratives to outright fabricated stories, the episode highlights how little verification happens before people react emotionally.  The conversation also dives into the long term psychological effects of isolation, pandemic era fear, and loss of trust in institutions.  Brandon and Ed talk about compliance, resistance, shifting narratives, and why people who once demanded obedience now condemn it. Topics expand into political hypocrisy, voting disillusionment, government power, education and indoctrination, taxation, surveillance, and the realization that public outrage rarely leads to meaningful change.  Topics Discussed Selective outrage and political hypocrisy Media manipulation and misinformation Social media fear cycles AI generated misinformation Post pandemic psychological effects Compliance versus resistance narratives Government trust and disillusionment Education and political conditioning Surveillance and loss of personal agency Cultural division and identity politics Consumerism and manufactured tradition Religious symbolism and cultural myths Conspiracy theories and historical patterns Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/tinfoil-tales--6147818/support.  Want to be a Guest?  If you have a paranormal encounter, conspiracy theory, or unexplained story to share, we'd love to hear from you!

    Seems Sus: Snowmeggedon

    In this episode, Brandon and Ed kick back for a wide-ranging Seems Sus style conversation that jumps from extreme weather patterns and possible weather modification to zombies, pandemics, and how unprepared society really is for large-scale disruption. The discussion touches on strange storms hitting unexpected regions, flares and unexplained lights near military bases, HAARP, sonic weapons, Havana Syndrome, and whether modern technology is being quietly tested on the public. From exploding tree rumors and historical UFO reports to zombie apocalypse scenarios inspired by 28 Days Later, The Last of Us, and George Romero’s legacy, the episode blends humor, skepticism, and uncomfortable questions about control, fear, and human behavior. Along the way, they reflect on pandemic-era chaos, supply shortages, government responses, and why even small crises reveal how fragile modern life really is.

    Ep. 235: MonsterQuest Is Back - Inside the Reboot with Producer Jared McGilliard

    Producer and filmmaker Jared McGilliard (Nomadica Films) joins Tinfoil Tales to talk about bringing MonsterQuest back and what it took to reboot a show that helped shape modern cryptid media. Jared shares how the new season was built, why they focused on credible first person witnesses, and how they tried to keep the tone objective without turning encounters into cheap sensationalism. They also get into patterns across sightings, why a body is still the line science demands, how AI complicates evidence, and Jared’s own unexplained experience in the Pacific Northwest that still sticks with him.
