The New Conspiracist

9. Hugo Rifkind meets David Icke’s lizard people

David Icke used to be a footballer. Now, he’s better known as the father of all conspiracy theorists – behind anti-5G, covid truther movements, and more. But before that he revealed the world was ruled by lizard people. Journalist and metropolitan liberal elitist Hugo Rifkind joins Jolyon and James to tell all on the great lizard man theory.

Conspiracy? Unexplained Correlation? Just a Coincidence? Conspiracy theories are being discussed more than ever. BAFTA award winning comedian Jolyon Rubinstein and Pulitzer prize-winning investigative journalist James Ball are deliberating what makes conspiracy theories believable or rejectable. From who shot JFK to who replaced Melania Trump? James and Jol dive into the silly and the serious world of conspiracies theorists. Every episode joined by expert guests to help them come to a decision, throughout a somewhat unplanned discussion. But let’s face it, the truth is never the best story to tell, so might as well have some fun along the way.
