OK, so the title is a little misleading, we spent a lot of time talking about the 7 conspiracy theories than we do telling you how to spot them. But we do look at why people talk about them is such a pejorative way. We also look at why people buy into them – and also let’s face it there’s plenty of facts that have started out as conspiracy theories so we’re not saying don’t believe… although in at least 4 or 5 of the 7 we talk about, we didn’t really buy it. But hey, Dave is a cynic and Beans stays on the fence a lot so what do we know.
