Fell into an Antarctica conspiracy theory hole this morning. It’s crazy how many people with podcasts think there’s a whole secret civilization hidden under the ice.

Sometimes I’m watching a podcast and thinking - is this guy being sarcastic and funny? 

But then I see their passion . Either they truly believes what they are saying, or they are really really good actors.

Generally it’s mix of both.
