Conspiracy Clearinghouse
A rather skeptical look at conspiracies and mysteries. Each episode will examine conspiracy theories, most of which are not true, a few of which might be a little bit true and even a couple that turned out, in fact, to be true.

EPISODE 143 | Paranoia Is Forever: Disney Conspiracies Walt Disney’s goal was to make the “Happiest Place on Earth”, and to delight and inspire both children and adults through the ages.
