Lizard People: Comedy & Conspiracy Theories

By Katelyn Hempstead 989737

What if the government actually did cover something up in Roswell? What if yetis exist and are just really shy? What if super-intelligent lizards are wearing human skin suits, influencing international affairs and recording podcasts? Conspiracy theories are cool because they appeal to our evolved logical human brains and our stupid mammal idiot brains. So join comedian and skeptic Katelyn Hempstead as her brilliant friends try to convince her of these and many other conspiracy theories.

Ed Edwards Killed Everybody with Matt Newell

Ed Edwards Killed Everybody with Matt Newell

Ed Edwards was a real weiner who killed at least 5 people in the Midwest. But could he also be responsible for pretty much every other murder that happened in America between 1960 and 2000?? Matt Newell thinks he just might be. The writer/comedian is on Lizard People this week to discuss the possibility that Ed Edward was also: The Zodiac Killer, The Atlanta Child Murderer, JonBenet Ramsey's killer, and also just an absolute douchebag sociopath as well. Is this a dark ep? Sure, but Matt is also extremely funny and fun!!

The Kennedys Killed Marilyn Monroe with Chase McCown

The Kennedys Killed Marilyn Monroe with Chase McCown

Well happy birthday Mr. President to us all. This week the delightful old-Hollywood expert Chase McCown stopped by to talk about a golden age conspiracy theory. Marilyn Monroe died of an overdose of various pills at the age of 36, right when her career seemed to be getting back on track. Was it accidental? A suicide? Or was it MURDER MOST FOUL?? Because another key fact about every college gal's favorite sexy lady is that she was most definitely boinking at least one Kennedy, and was very possibly planning to go public about it. Let Chase's incredibly soothing voice wrap you up in the greatest noir mystery of all.

The New Orleans Hornets and the 2012 Draft with Zander Frost

The New Orleans Hornets and the 2012 Draft with Zander Frost

What is going ON with the NBA??? Basketball conspiracies abound, and this week we're talking to comedian Zander Frost about how the league may have rigged the 2012 draft. See in 2012 the then-Hornets were in a precarious position what with their owner being a sex pest and getting forced out of the league. The NBA was desperate to find a new owner for the team, and lo and behold the Hornets got first pick in the draft that year. Or something sportsy like that. Listen as Katelyn struggles through the fundamentals of b-ball! Marvel as Zander explains the entire history of the NBA from memory! Groan as we joke about the name Del Demps!

H.R. Giger And The Illuminati with Matt Gourley (Revisited)

Hey everybody! No new ep this week due to various goofs, spoofs, and Katelyn being a doof. But for your aural pleasure, here's an old episode that is an absolute delight from top to bottom. Matt Gourley stopped by to talk about Giger's connection with the Illumaniti, but things kind of spun out from there and got... paranormal.

And you'll get all that and more in this surprisingly sweet episode.

A Star Is Born Takes Place In An Alternate Universe Where 9/11 Never Happened with Cait Raft

A Star Is Born Takes Place In An Alternate Universe Where 9/11 Never Happened with Cait Raft

Look, the title of this episode kind of says it all. Cait Raft is a brilliant writer and comedian and she has a personal theory that Bradley Cooper's version of the film A Star Is Born doesn't actually take place in our universe. Her theory is a real sci-fi mind-freak, you're gonna love it. Along the way we discuss Saturday Night Live, the definition of country music, terrorism, Dolly Parton. Drag Race, Nicholas Sparks, and cocaine. You will never watch a film the same way again.

Men in Black with Dave Child

Men in Black with Dave Child

Well, Dave Child is back. And this time he's bringing with him some theories on what might really be going on with the Men In Black. If you think you know MIB from the films starring the entertainment industry's most charming man Will Smith, think again! Stories about the mysterious dudes in black suits get way stranger than anything Hollyweird could come up with. This week we're talking flying saucers, mystical weirdos, the American government, and the nature of belief. It's a doozy of an ep, let's just say that.

Jesus' Stolen Body with Holly Laurent and Greg Hess

Jesus' Stolen Body with Holly Laurent and Greg Hess

Ok so did you know that after Jesus was resurrected he allegedly stayed on earth for another MONTH? Just HANGING OUT??! The last days of our buddy Jesus Christ are truly shocking when you get down to the nitty gritty. But the theories about what might have happened to his body when it disappeared from his tomb get even more shocking. The biblically literate and hysterically funny Holly Laurent and Greg Hess stopped by to talk JC and religion in general this week, and it was an absolute delight. Get ready to parse the gospels and roast the disciples with us!

Michael Jordan's Dad with James Mastraieni

Michael Jordan's Dad with James Mastraieni

You might have heard somewhere about Michael Jordan's gambling habit. Boy oh boy, did it get habitual for a while there. But there's someone we don't talk about when we talk about MJ's golf wagers, and that's his papa James Jordan. Because some people out there in the dark corners of the sports internet believe that James Jordan's tragic death was the result of some jerk mob guys collecting on a debt that MJ owed. And one of those people is hilarious comedian and writer James Mastraieni! Yes, JM has some thoughts about MJ's betting problem, and also some thoughts on cannabis, South Carolina, and the mob. And he also has some personal perspective on how gambling addiction can really mess your stuff up. It's fun, it's thoughtful, it's Michael Jordan's dad.

Ace of Base is a Nazi Band with Adam Tod Brown

Ace of Base is a Nazi Band with Adam Tod Brown

Have you seen the sign? Do you know all that she wants? Do you live in a happy nation? That's right, this week we're taking a deep dive into the reggae-euro-pop band Ace of Base. Specifically, Ace of Base's secret neo-Nazi agenda. Adam Tod Brown joins us from the Unpops network to lay out his own personal theory that the chipper Swedes are in fact nazi nasties whose dark past reveals their ties to white nationalism. But whether they're nazis or not, we can all agree that Ace of Base was deeply, unsettlingly weird.

PETA Is a Sham with Brona C. Titley and Tom Neenan

PETA Is a Sham with Brona C. Titley and Tom Neenan

It’s our live London show! And the conspiracies are as thick as the smoke was in Victorian times or something. That was a thing right? Anyway our guests are the delightful and hilarious Brona and Tom, and they’re bringing that classic British heat to the stage. We talked about the animal rights organization PETA, and their extremely weird tactics for getting people to go vegan. Their tactics are so weird, in fact, that they just might be covering up the hidden agenda of Big Meat!

The Black Dahlia Murder with Joey Bergren and Justin Sherman

The Black Dahlia Murder with Joey Bergren and Justin Sherman

The Black Dahlia killing captivated a nation and freaked out LA real bad. Elizabeth Short's murder is still technically unsolved, but Joey Bergren and Justin Sherman think they just might have found the guy. All with the help of that guy's son! In this episode, we attempt to solve the 70 year old murder case with a journey through freaky sex parties, nasty VD doctors, and a shaky grasp on how dark a joke can be before it's messed up. Plus, a dramatic reading of a very polite email.

PS, content warning for murder and sexual assault in this one!

Trump Is A Russian Asset with Betsy Stover

Trump Is A Russian Asset with Betsy Stover

This darn president. Some people love hate him, some people love him, but pretty much everyone can agree that he wishes he could ride a horse shirtless with Vladimir Putin. But is Trump’s close relationship with Russia more than it seems? Are those hotel interests just fronts for an even creepier and more treasonous tie?

If only Tupac has lived to today. The brilliant rapper, writer, actor, and activist was killed in a Las Vegas shooting in 1996, depriving the world of a whole bunch of great music and poetry and smartness. But there are some who believe that we don’t know the whole story behind Tupac’s death. People like comedian Cara Meyers, who thinks Tupac maybe never died at all.

Roko’s Basilisk with Lee Rubenstein

Roko’s Basilisk with Lee Rubenstein

Ready to get your brain squished up and shoved through a pasta press? Because this episode is gonna cook your noodle. Lee Rubenstein, writer and teacher and very smart dude, is here to explain the theory of Roko’s Basilisk. A basilisk, obvs, is a mythical creature that kills you if you look at it. And Roko’s version is an artificial intelligence from the future that may or may not be punishing us retroactively because we hindered it’s creation by talking about it.

Britney Spears Is Trapped with Rachel Chapman

Britney Spears Is Trapped with Rachel Chapman

Conspiracy theories surround Britney Jean Spears like flies around an empty frappucino cup. Was she in league with the Bush Administration? Is she actually a clone? Can she even sing??! And most poignant, is she trapped in an endless childlike limbo created by her dad and a shady lawyer? This week Rachel is back on the ‘cast to discuss the possibility that Britney Spears has not had an authentic moment of freedom since 2008.

Birds Aren’t Real with Kyle Kenyon

Do you believe in birds? Well then you, my friend, are a chump. See Kyle Kenyon knows something that The Powers That Be don’t want you to know, something that might just lead to the greatest cover-up in history. He knows that birds are actually drones. Well, most birds. Well, there used to be more real birds but now some of them are fake. Well, when we say fake… Listen, it’s complicated.

Jesus Was Invented By The Romans with Steve Hernandez

Jesus Was Invented By The Romans with Steve Hernandez

Now picture this - you’re a 1st century Roman emperor with a restless populace to control. Sects of jews were fighting each other and the empire. How are you gonna chill out Rome’s Judean subjects without killing everybody? Well if you’re smart, maybe you make up a religious leader who wants everyone to be peaceful and non-violent and to render unto Caesar. Maybe you invent Jesus.

Jimmy Buffett Won The World Series For The Red Sox with Patrick McDonald and Ryan Middledorf

The Buffett Boys are in town, and nothing will ever be the same again! The delightful hosts of The Parrothead Podcast came on the podcast to try to convince us all that Jimmy Buffett is so incredibly powerful that he was able to break the Bambino’s Curse and lead the Red Sox to victory in the World Series.

Dennis Rodman Is A Spy In North Korea with Agata and Anastasia

In 2013, Vice News brought a documentary crew, three Harlem Globetrotters, and Dennis ‘The Worm’ Rodman to North Korea. What happened there… changed the world forever. Or maybe it didn’t? Regardless, delightful comedians and hosts of the podcast Dunktown Anastasia and Agata came by to talk Rodman and Kim Jong Un. Turns out that the unlikely friendship between the dictator and the volatile basketball star might be more than it seems.

The Pixar Theory with Ashlyn Anstee

Our guest this week is fan favorite (and creator of the Lizard People logo!) Ashlyn Anstee. Ashlyn is an animator and she knows some truly fascinating secrets about the secret world of animation.

The Mork And Mindy Plot with Michael Dean

The Mork And Mindy Plot with Michael Dean

Michael Dean is BACK and he’s been watching sitcoms from the 80’s, baby! Friend of the show (and inventor of the term Hemphead Nation) has a theory about the sitcom that launched young Robin Williams to superstardom and helped cement bland earth-angel Gary Marshall as a major producer. Yes, it’s Mork and Mindy. And Michael thinks the show may have been a plot by the US government to get us all comfy cozy with the idea of living with aliens.

Drake’s Kid Is Actually Kanye’s with Nick Casalini

The Kardashians are back baby! Are they eclipsing Bey and Jay to become the first family of conspiracy theories? Also, does Drake suck? All these questions and more will be answered on this extremely gossip-y episode of Lizard People.

The list of suspects in the death of pop star Michael Jackson grows ever longer. Soon it might even include… you??? Nah just playing. Todd McClintock is back on the podcast and he has an explosive theory about who might really be behind the slaying of MJ. Yes, good ol Todd thinks Sega did it. Sega. Maker of console and cabinet video games. That Sega.

Aliens Are Interdimensional Future Humans with Cody Ziglar

Aliens Are Interdimensional Future Humans with Cody Ziglar

What’s the deal with aliens? Folks have close encounters with them all the time, but they always look different and want different things and won’t fess up about whether they’re just angels or not. Aliens are a mystery! But Cody Ziglar, podcast producer and gifted writer/director, thinks he might know what’s up with our goggle eyed buddies from outer space. Namely, that they’re not from outer space at all.

Music is Brainwashing Us with Jessica McKenna

Music is Brainwashing Us with Jessica McKenna

Ever get an ear worm stick in your head? One of those tunes you just can’t stop singing?

Khloe Kardashian Is OJ’s Daughter with Carl Tart

There Are No Trees with Ben Dietzel

There Are No Trees with Ben Dietzel

Once again, friend of the show Ben Dietzel has learned the error of his ways. First he thought the earth was hollow. Then he realized it was flat. Then he learned that not only is it flat, there are no actual forests! Yes, Brainy Boy Ben is back and he’s here to argue that the things we think of as trees are just pale bushy imitations of the real thing, trunks of which still dot the landscape. What do those real trees look like now? You’re just gonna have to listen to find out.

The Rendlesham Forest Incident with Colton Dunn

The Rendlesham Forest Incident with Colton Dunn

Ever heard of ‘Britain’s Roswell’? If you haven’t, maybe it’s because ~they~ don’t want you to. But Colton Dunn wants you to hear about it, because Colton is both a talented actor AND a professional truth teller. What happened in Rendlesham Forest is still a mystery, but it definitely involves the US military, weird lights in the sky, possible rabbit warrens, maybe tons of LSD, Christmas egg nog, and more spooky details.

Vampires Are Real with Jen Zaborowski

Do you love Hollywood gossip? How about celebrity drama? Do you wish that the tea about famous people also included just a sprinkle of the supernatural? Ooh honey, this is your episode.

H.R. Giger and the Illuminati with Matt Gourley

H.R. Giger and the Illuminati with Matt Gourley

This episode is hard to describe. Oh everything started out normal enough - our guest was the gentle genius of podcasting Matt Gourley, host of Superego and I Was There Too (among a million other podcasts). Matt was desperate to tell the world the truth about the Illuminati and its most artistic member, H.R. Giger, illustrator of alien sex machines.

Lorde Is Secretly 40 with Stevie Nelson

Lorde Is Secretly 40 with Stevie Nelson

How old is Lorde? You know, the shockingly young pop-music sensation who won a Grammy as a teen and took the world by storm with her clever lyrics and stadium rock vocals? Like 22? WRONG. Stevie Nelson is convinced that Lorde is actually a 40-year-old masquerading as a teen for the publicity. Stevie (who’s also a genius actor/comedian/artist) has a lot of evidence to support Lorde being a big fake faker, and she shares it on this episode.

Israel Uses Animal Spies with Zach Reino

Israel Uses Animal Spies with Zach Reino

What connects shark attacks in Egypt, lizards in Iran, and an endangered vulture in Saudi Arabia? Why, nothing but the fact that they’re all trained spies sent by Mossad to snoop on Israel’s enemies!!! This wild and wooly theory comes to us courtesy of the insanely funny Zach Reino, and it’s a whopper. There have been many incidences of weird camera wearing animals around Israel, and we get into all the possibilities of what might be going on.

Soy Gives Men Boobies with Jesse Ray Beaumont

Soy Gives Men Boobies with Jesse Ray Beaumont

This week’s episode is a very special one. The guest may be incarcerated, but his soul and his intellect are free as a bird. Jesse Ray Beaumont is an amateur horologist and full-time small-town scapegoat who is currently serving a life sentence for a crime he may not have committed. He’s the subject of the popular podcast M-Towne. And he’s very convinced that soy gives men big saggy tatas.

Y2K Is The Reason Everything Sucks with Patrick Kang and Michael Levin

Y2K Is The Reason Everything Sucks with Patrick Kang and Michael Levin

Michael and Patrick are two delightful tv writers on the show Trial and Error. Y2K is the fun and catchy nickname for the epidemic of fear around the year 2000. This episode is where it all goes down. See, programmers in the early days of computers decided to list dates with two digits, which made 1900 the same as 2000, which made everyone freak out and think that all computers would go bust at midnight on New Years Eve. That didn’t happen.

The Pyramids Were Hydroelectric Power Plants with Suzi Barrett

The Pyramids Were Hydroelectric Power Plants with Suzi Barrett

Hey, how come they never found any bodies in the pyramids in Egypt? Like, if they were tombs where are all the bodies and decorations and stuff? If this question bothers you, then you have a lot in common with Suzi Barrett. The truly delightful writer/actor/comedian stopped by to drop some knowledge about what was really going on in those big geometric sons of guns.
Aug 03, 201801:00:10
Ahmadinejad Killed Michael Jackson with Anna Hossnieh

Ahmadinejad Killed Michael Jackson with Anna Hossnieh

Iran does NOT play when it comes to coups. So it makes sense that incumbent Mahmoud Ahmadinejad would have been nervous when protests broke out after he basically stole the 2009 election. But was he so nervous that he’d plan and execute the assassination of the world’s most famous pop star just to distract the world media??? Idk, maybe!

Suge Knight Killed Tupac with Casey Feigh

Suge Knight Killed Tupac with Casey Feigh

On September 7th, 1996, we lost one of the greatest minds America has ever produced. Tupac Shakur was a brilliant rapper and writer, a budding actor, and a surprisingly great ballet dancer. He also had a lot of enemies. So when he was shot in a car in Las Vegas, most people assumed one of those nemeses was behind the murder. But Casey Feigh thinks different.
Jul 20, 201850:34
Jesus' Lost Years with Ptolemy Slocum

Jesus' Lost Years with Ptolemy Slocum

Jesus Christ of Nazareth was a pretty cool guy. He had a bunch of good ideas about being nice, having fun, treating people with respect, redistributing wealth, and so on. But for being basically the most famous person on earth, it’s pretty weird that there’s a 16ish year gap in his biography. But Ptolemy Slocum has a theory about where JC might have been. Ptolemy thinks that maybe, like so many teens, he went to find himself in India.

Bohemian Grove with Dave Child (Revisited)

Bohemian Grove with Dave Child (Revisited)

At first it's gonna seem like Dave Child (actor and comedian and wonderful person) doesn't believe his own conspiracy theory. But about halfway into this episode things got really weird. Maybe the Bohemian Grove is just a campground where rich old Republicans get together to pee outside. Or maybe it's something...stranger.

A Cursed Mummy Sank the Titanic with Conor Dowling

A Cursed Mummy Sank the Titanic with Conor Dowling

The sinking of the Titanic was one of the great tragedies of the 20th century, an accident that claimed many lives and inspired many movies. But what if it wasn't an accident? What if it was an elaborate plot involving a wealthy banker, the creation of the Federal Reserve, and a FREAKIN MUMMY! The delightful Conor Dowling joins us this episode to educate us all about how the American finance system works, and what really sank the unsinkable ship.

Jonestown Was A Failed MKUltra Experiment with Drew Droege

Jonestown Was A Failed MKUltra Experiment with Drew Droege

Jonestown is one of the great American tragedies, a cautionary tale about cults and the scary narcissists who run them. MKUltra was a freaky freewheeling military department that tried to give people psychic powers by dosing them with LSD. At first glance, you’d think they have nothing in common. But Drew Droege knows better than that. The magnetic actor and comedian believes that Jonestown was in fact a large scale outdoor MKUltra experiment gone terribly wrong!
