What if the stories and narratives you hear in the average mainstream media reporting aren't the entire truth? What if there's something else going on, a secret war between a shadowy cabal and a small group of brave, outnumbered good guys fighting back against their insidious plans for world domination? This is, according to QAnon proponents, a true story. Join Ben, Matt and Noel as they dive into the origins of this uber-theory, the fact and fiction surrounding it, as well as the implications involved in this week's Classic episode.

It seemed the world paused on April 21, 2025, when 88-year-old Pope Francis passed away after a long struggle with multiple health issues. As the Catholic church and the world at large wonders what the future will bring, a once-obscure piece of writing is back in the public zeitgeist: the "Prophecy of the Popes," which purports to predict the ascension of all Popes up until the rise of the antichrist. Why are some people so concerned? Well, according to the true believers -- Francis was the second to last Pope in the prophecy. And the next just may be the final Pope, leading to the destruction of Rome and the end of civilization as we know it.
Just over 100 days into Trump’s second term, the damage in Washington, DC is already undeniable. From threatening local autonomy to J-6 insurrectionists getting off the hook, the nation's capital is under siege.
Guest co-host Bridget Todd, host of There Are No Girls On The Internet, joins Weird Little Guys’ Molly Conger to break down what’s happening in DC—and why the rest of the country can’t afford to look away.
The legendary civilization of Atlantis was first mentioned in the works of Plato, in dialogues that claimed to recount information from translations of ancient Egyptian texts.

Join "Ben," Matt and Noel as they explore the fact and fiction of the ancient legend of Atlantis.
Mia talks with trans journalists David Forbes, Mira Lazine, and Mady Castigan about how a lack of trans journalism got us here and how it can be supported.
