Episode 102 – News, Fake News and Even Faker News - a podcast by Kai

from 2020-06-23T04:08:49

:: ::

In this episode we cover some headlines including the Artic Circle hitting 101 degrees Fahrenheit (38.3C), Russian spying, Chinese spying (TikTok)and talk a bit about the ECHELON program and surveillance and why the fuck nobody knew/cared and we wrap the evening with a chat member who doesn't believe in the moon landing or the heliocentric model of our solar system. As you can imagine after that, I'm tired.



Enjoy!
