About this show
You want to get the truth straight from the horse's mouth. But what if that horse disagrees with you? What if that horse is lying? What if... it's part of the cover-up? We all have that family member: like the aunt who's convinced the Earth is flat. This fun, silly comedy show dives headfirst into the world of conspiracy theories. If you're hoping for proof the moon landing was fake, this isn't the show for you. But if you’ve argued with someone whose theory makes no sense – welcome.
