S3 EP3: Flat Earth theory & moon landing hoax

CONSPIRACY THEORIES? Flat Earth, moon landing hoaxes & more!

Hello, Eavesdroppers! As you know, we love a good conspiracy theory here at Eavesdroppin’ Podcast and this week, Geordie & Michelle talk about two conspiracies that tickle their fancy: the Flat Earth theory and the Moon Landing hoax!

Is the Earth round? Is the Earth flat? Is it a disc with a wall of ice around the periphery? How tall is that wall of ice? And despite all the evidence, why do Flat Earthers still believe the Earth is flat? And if it’s flat, how come NO ONE HAS EVER WALKED TO THE EDGE? Have any Flat Earth theories ever been proven? Listen in for answers!

Then there’s the small question of the 1969 moon landing… Did Buzz Aldrin and Neil Armstrong really set foot on the moon in 1969? Or did NASA fake the whole thing? Especially as the Apollo 11 was made out of tin foil? And what’s with that letter C being written on a moon rock? And how about all those theories around wind, shadows, no stars… Not sure if there are any answers but the girls give it a red hot go!

That’s it for this week and remember, wherever you are, whatever you do, just keep Eavesdroppin’!
