    s02e05: area 51

    in sept. 2019, two million RSVP'd to a facebook event called "Storm Area 51, They Can't Stop All of Us." so what were they after?
    **special guest host!!** in this episode, ethan, ryan, and celebrity guest ~ruth~ investigate theories surrounding area 51. what do we know? is what we know even credible? the testimony of a few individuals is commonly refuted by the u.s. government – but they themselves have a shoddy record when it comes to transparency, especially around area 51. through the journey, our guest presenter develops a new theory that seems to connect all the dots. are you ready to believe?

    theory queery is an independent podcast recorded and produced by ethan and ryan, two longtime pals who proudly identify with the lgbtq+ community. gay men hailing from small, rural towns in montana, ethan and ryan's journeys to queer podcasting started with their meeting in college, supporting each other in the coming out process, and eventually embracing and thriving in the gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender, queer, intersex, et. al. community.
    both guys have identified two mutual joys: (1) a fascination with conspiracy theories both sensible and outrageous, and (2) a tendency to slip into catty discourse while discussing virtually anything. their dream for this podcast is primarily to entertain, secondarily to inform, but above all, to increase visibility of the queer community by providing entertaining content that, while not inherently gay, is delivered by proud, outspoken members of the lgbt + family.

    s02e04: moon landing pt. 2

    s02e04: moon landing pt. 2

    if the first hour of moon hoaxery wasn't enough, wait until you hear the rest of the "evidence".
    would a moon hoax really require that 400,000 people be willing to lie, or just a select few? many conspiracy debunkers point to video and camera footage as indisputable proof of a moon landing, but a closer look at the images reveals discrepancies in lighting, oddities in observed gravity, and some of the most important footage of the apollo missions (and in human history) goes mysteriously missing. tune in for part 2 of one of the most infamous conspiracies of all time.

    s02e03: moon landing pt. 1

    s02e03: moon landing pt. 1

    one of the most widely believed (and often debunked) conspiracy theories might have some weight.
    the USA declared it would put a man on the moon, but the apollo missions were fraught with tragedy and scandal. landing on the moon seemed nearly impossible in the 1960's... maybe even less possible now. though the USA has video documentation to prove multiple moon landings, as many as 19 million americans believe it was faked. hear the history, the speculation, and decide for yourself what's fact and what's fiction.

    s02e02: princess diana

    the death of this fab queen is shrouded in mystery, and *gasp* may not have been an accident.
    remember the 90's? better than 2020, yet there were plenty of moments we'd rather forget. among them, the tragic and shocking death of the people's princess: lady diana, princess of wales. the world was devastated when the news broke that her car had collided with a column in the pont de l'alma tunnel in paris, france in the early morning hours of august 31, 1997. multiple investigations and conspiracy theories point to suspicious circumstances and implications of foul play. was princess di's death simply an accident, or the result of a sinister revenge plot?

    s01e06: cattle mutilation

    dead cows missing their faces and junk? not exactly your average livestock killing.

    in this episode, ethan takes us on a journey back to the homeland: rural montana. for decades, farmers across the u.s. and particularly in montana and wyoming have reported mysterious cattle killings. with insufficient evidence to draw any solid conclusions, folks have been crying foul. from aliens to pranksters to cult rituals to illegal government or military testing, it's hard to dispute that something's fishy with all this unexplained cow killing.
