About this Episode
This week, Elon Musk’s flamethrower may help during an alien invasion, why do people buy internet traffic, podcasts are great places to advertise, and Billy Mitchell is a cheater. Then in the paranormal segment, it’s DB Cooper, conspiracies on YouTube, the full moon does nothing, mass hysteria, and the Zone of Silence.
