In their new book Stuff They Don’t Want You to Know, Ben Bowlin, Matthew Frederick, and Noel Brown, hosts of the eponymous podcast, look at popular conspiracy theories—from chemtrails to surveillance to the Tuskegee experiment—and seek to discern fact from fiction.
When starting the “Stuff They Don’t Want You to Know” podcast more than a decade ago, conspiracy theories often featured UFOs and brought to mind people in tinfoil hats and “The Twilight Zone.” Since then, the podcast has grown to more than 7 million monthly downloads, and conspiracy theories themselves have moved from the fringe to the mainstream—to the point that it’s become difficult for the average person to determine what’s actually true. Why is that? How did these theories proliferate? With cool heads, curiosity, and extensive research, Ben, Matt, and Noel break conspiracies down and parse the kernels of truth from the bonkers ideas they grow into.
Written in a smart, witty, and conversational style, and with amazing illustrations, Stuff They Don’t Want You to Know helps us understand the unexplainable and use truth as a powerful weapon against ignorance and misinformation.
