For some time, a lot of really weird things have happened to me. These things have led me to gain a lot of knowledge about the government, extra-terrestrial life, and even our own lives. I created this podcast so I could share these things with the rest of the world because I feel that everyone has the right to know what is really going on. Along with that, I will be discussing many conspiracy theories that may shock you. LISTENER DISCRETION IS ADVISED.
