Conspiracy Theories

Does nature or nurture shape who we are? Does our personality come from our genes, or the environment we live in? Countless scientific studies on the subject have been published. But one such study – a collaboration between a psychoanalyst and a New York adoption agency – was instead hidden away for decades. Could it be because the study was founded on lies? Because it was unethical? Or might there be some other secrets hiding in the files of Dr. Peter Neubauer?

Today, we welcome a special guest: twin studies expert Dr. Nancy Segal. Check out her book! Deliberately Divided: Inside the Controversial Study of Twins and Triplets Adopted Apart

The Secret Twin Study: Files Sealed Until 2065

James Angleton: The Man Who Broke the CIA From the Inside

In 1915, a German U-boat torpedoed the Lusitania, sinking it off the Irish coast, and killing over 1000 people.

The Cash-Landrum Incident

John F. Kennedy, Jr. was born into the spotlight and remained a public fixture until his untimely death at the age of 38. The NTSB concluded that John crashed his private plane – with his wife, Carolyn, and sister-in-law Lauren on board – due to pilot error, bad weather, and spatial disorientation. But some still suspect foul play. Could John’s future plans… or the secrets he knew… have made him a target?

JFK Jr.

When the women started dying, the cover-up began: forged reports, fake doctors, lies on death certificates. The conspiracy nearly worked. But dying women make stubborn enemies.
