A proposito di questo titolo

Do 12 million Americans really believe that interstellar lizards in "people-suits" are running the world?

In this episode of Grave Coda, hosts Sam and Jordan go inside "The Reptile Room" to deconstruct one of the world's most infamous conspiracy theories. We move beyond the memes to analyze the historical roots and the scientific reality behind the Reptilian Elite narrative.

In this episode, we discuss:

  • The David Icke Confrontation: A look back at the 2001 Vancouver incident and the literal "Annunaki" claims.
  • The Psychology of the Fringe: Defining "Schizotypy" and "Bullshit Receptivity"—the scientific traits that predict conspiracy belief.
  • Logistics of Secrecy: Why human nature makes "Grand Conspiracies" almost impossible to maintain.
  • The Digital Echo Chamber: How Generative AI and social media algorithms amplify confirmation bias.
  • Camera Tricks & VFX: From "rolling shutter" distortions to "ring doorbell aliens," we debunk the viral footage.

Join the Grave Coda community as we look for the signal in the noise. Stay skeptical.
