Those Conspiracy Guys

Those Conspiracy Guys is a history, comedy and true crime podcast from Ireland produced and presented by Gordon Rochford and the topics discussed are varied and wide-ranging; from the speculations on the out-there conspiracy theories like aliens, time travel, and ancient civilisations to researched discussions on the more grounded, historical and provable conspiracies like political and financial corruption, scientific chicanery and secret government agency shenanigans.
In long-form group discussions; interviews with authors and experts; live stage shows and streams with an eager audience; and collaborations with other conspiracy creators; Gordo examines all the wildest notions and most unbelievable theories in the ever broadening genre of ‘conspiracy’. From the high-concept topics like inter-dimensional lizard men, complicated assassination plots and potential future technologies like alternative simulated universes; to the much more tangible topics like discussing serial killers and mysterious true crime cases; exploring the history of religions and cult leaders; and historically profiling the lives and times of some of the most influential people to have lived, and died.
Those Conspiracy Guys brings you on a light hearted and hilarious exploration of these fantastic stories through thoroughly researched and painstakingly contmeplated production; making it easy and fun for these sometimes heavy and complicated topics to be digested, with lashings of good old irreverend Irish craic from host Gordon Rochford and a cavalcade of hilarious comedians, committed creators and fabulously interesting guests.

The Assassination of Bobby Kennedy Apr 16, 2016

Show notes

DEEP DIVE -
On this episode we discuss the somewhat overshadowed assassination of Bobby Kennedy. Younger brother to the infamous JFK, former Attourney General and at the time of his death, highly probable candidate for the next President of the United States. Hewas gunned down, under suspicious circumstances on June 6th, 1968 in the Ambassador Hotel at the hands of purported mind controlvictim Sirhan Sirhan.
Bobby Kennedy was on the fast track to the White House, withalliances with civil rights leaders and the vehement support oftheir followers, a very public and heart warming affinity to thelower classes in America, and a very vocal distaste for theestablishment that had poisoned the America the Kennedy brothershad in mind at the start of the 60s.
All of these and his campaign promises to end war and make the unjust pay for their deeds, madehim a prime target for assassination. With a vast back catalog of enemies from his time on the Senate Committee for Investigations, confronting mob bosses and unionleaders, to his time as Attourney General where he sought to bringthe untouchable forces of eveil in the US to justice; Bobby made many enemies. Some of which he brought into his relationship with JFK and the guilt that racked him after Jack was shot, changed himfrom a fighter to a leader.
We talk about all this and mind control and hypnosis, the CIA and Castro, about what happened in thekictchen of the AMbassador and who could have made the plot to killthe almost surely future president, and about his relationshipswith powerful men and the reasons they had to have him dead.

James Holmes and The Aurora Cinema Shooting Feb 05, 2016

Show notes

DEEP DIVE -
On this episode we screen every angle of the numerous conspiracytheories and false flag allegations that surround the Batmantheater shooting. In 2015 James Holmes was convicted of the murder of 12 people and got over 3000 year sentence for injuring 70 in a horrificattack that seemed to come straight from the pages of a comicbook.
Clad all in black body armour, sporting a gas mask over hisorange hair and with an arsenal of weapons, his 2012 attack isladen with inconsistencies surrounding a second shooter, the oddarrest and conflicting witness testimony. But it's the rumored Sandy Hook, LIBOR scandal, MK Ultra and CIAconnections that have conspiracy theorists questioning everythingfrom an imposter in court and mind controlled zombie to gun controlagendas and black op cover-ups.
