Conspiracy Theories! | Good Influences Episode 9 

Pls do a scary story/supernatural episode when Halloween comes around!!

Cognitive dissonance is a huge reason behind why people can’t just accept the whole “oh maybe I am wrong”

I loved the topics you guys would bring up but then Carly and Erin would just say “I don’t care” and it really ruin the podcast for me because at least give some type of opinion too it and don’t just say “I don’t care” It shuts the topic down which sucks because I was really interested in what Matt & Mike wanted to say!!!

Garrett watts would be perfect for a conspiracy/spooky episode 🧡 👻 👽

Very Best Podcast streaming IMO!!! I truly enjoy every episode and the 4of them just mesh perfectly!!!! I honestly look forward to this one every week 🥰

Walking home from work, on a rough day, while listening to this episode was the best. Thank you guys for making me laugh ly

Y2k was an issue but a lot of programmers worked hard to fix the codes. It did cause some issues in codes but for the most part, programmers were able to handle the issue before 2000 came so there werent many problems. My parents were software developers at the time and always say they weren’t worried about y2k because they (and all other developers) worked so hard to fix all the code leading into the new year.

Wasn’t the flag also waving in the “wind” during that “live feed” for the moon landing? When there is no oxygen in space. How’s that possible? Genuinely curious.

Manufacturing Consent by N. Chomsky migh help people see the difference for themselves or not ,only a rec. , its an old book , but quite relevant today

Omfgggggg they need to go to the original seating I hate this. Did Patricia get jealous lmao

We haven't gone back to the moon because "they lost the technology" lol like HUH????

Lol

We need Mike as a guest on Unfiltered!!!

How are y'all not going to talk about the Brittney Spears conspiracy theory that turned out to be true

I’m so surprised carly and erin didn’t bring up lea michelle being illiterate

Erin demeaning Carly is getting quite frequent

Who remembers the conspiracy theory about chuckie cheese using left over pizza and serving it because of the way they slice it? 😭

I really wanted to hear all of your opinions on the Wayfair child trafficking one! that's the one that really stumped me

Why does Erin degrade Carly's intelligence so often? it's painful to watch.

Mike always looks good, but he's looking extra good this episode👀🧐

mikes cut looking fresh

I love the theorie that Anne Hathaway and her husband are a reincarnation of Shakespeare and his wife

How interesting that Erin was giving Carly advise on not going to TikTok for news but she’s basing her opinion on the government through a show called scandal, the irony is not lost on me.

Carly and Erin, I love you girls so much but you can't just do what you do on your own podcast and say "who cares" or "I don't care" about every topic ffs!

Yo Mike’s haircut suits him really well! Lookin sharp!

Carly is literally so good at bouncing back from erins jabbing while fake laughing through saying the snarky comment

If y’all don’t care about conspiracies then do an episode on something else

Watching this months later and hearing Matt talk about “his friend” who believes the Sandy Hook conspiracy and he’s gotten in fights with them over it… I think we all know who it is considering the Zane roast.

I just love matts input on everything lmao

Can we try the guys on the inside next time? It feels weird with the taller person sitting closer to the camera, especially with Carly's posture (I too am a leaner)

hey guys i’m loving this pod so very much! jw if you or your editor could add pictures about the topics? jw don’t wannna add more work lol love you all🤍

Anyone else remember what year we went to the moon bc of Even Stevens? "We went to the moon, in 1969, not 1970 but a year sooooonerrr" hahaha

It’s funny how Erin thinks she’s right always

Pleeease, knowing the US, they would have already been to the moon and back over 20 times just to say they did. 😂 I'm with Mike on that one.

Lmao why was Erin so opposed on the thought of “why haven’t they gone back to the moon?” Why wouldn’t they it’s a new frontier. That’s like saying why would early Europeans go back to America after discovering it. Ik you can agree we may know more about the moon then what the early Europeans knew about America but still.

Why do i feel like matt & carly/erin are always whispering something under their breath about each other.. 😭

Please don't stereotype Boomers, we're not all idiots. You see plenty of younger people spreading conspiracy theories. Loved it otherwise.

is anyone else concerned that they source so much info from wikipedia? i was always taught that wiki is not a reputable source, lol is that just me? matt you’re an ut alumni i had faith in you!

I was just watching an old unfiltered conspiracies episode lol perfect timing

Matt needs to go back next to carly I can't watch

omg i remember when everyone thought the world was gonna end. On my MF 10th BIRTHDAY. My older sisters told me the world was gonna end and that i would never get to be 10 years old and i literally cried until i fell asleep. and look at me now still here😒

I love this podcast!!!!! One of my favorites!

Make Mike & Matt explain their period knowledge!

really enjoyed this episode. y’all should do a part 2 or do a continuous thing every now and then :)

The issue with Y2k was the fact that a lot of software at the time only looked at the last 2 digits of the year instead of all of the four digits. For example July 4th 1999 was seen as 07/04/99. So when the year 2000 rolled around there was worry that the year 2000 could also be interpreted at 1900 or even 3000 which would make software go crazy and not work properly. There was a lot of software updates that were done world wide to make sure that nothing would mess up.

The...camera was on an extending arm on the landing craft, it's not that much more complicated than a deck umbrella...landing the craft safely was magnitudes more complicated than getting a camera on a boom extended to catch the shot of Armstrong exiting it. And sure...sure, a government might fake going to the moon...but they wouldn't then do it ELEVEN MORE TIMES! And yeah, broadcasting a signal isn't hard, we had broadcast tv back then and the biggest limiting factor on broadcasting television signals from a tv tower is line of sight due to the curvature of the earth...which isn't an issue shooting a signal through the vacuum of space from the moon to the earth. As to why we haven't gone back? Because going in the first place was about developing ballistic missile technology for launching nuclear warheads at Russia. We developed them and it was expensive to go up there so we lost interest in spending all that money for no material gain. Now we go back with remote landers that can stay longer and are easier to get there and get back.

NASA is preparing to return to the moon with the Artemis project. The first Artemis rocket will launch to go to the moon on Aug 29 but it won’t have any passengers on board, however, soon there will be! This Artemis project will also hopefully help send the first people to Mars!

I’ve bought a mattress there! The guy knew so much, and got us such a good deal. I did ask him if people go, he said mostly during their sales

I love watching conspiracy theories videos!!!

Pst you guys didn't cut out what you wanted to

Some years prior to the legalization of marijuana, there was a CT regarding a strain of marijuana that grew in the sewers underneath Manhattan. Because it did not get sunlight, it was an albino strain, extremely potent because of all the drugs flushed down the toilets during police raids. It was extraordinarily difficult to harvest, because of the alligators... 😏😏

In regards to the Qanon topic. My father is married to a woman who is deep into it…she has a bumper sticker on her car for it. I don’t speak to her ..and my dad and I have always had a dicey relationship ..but I try to talk sense into him. It’s hard because it usually leads to arguments but I try to stick it out so he has some sane people around him. Some of the things he says though …it gets very hard to want to keep communicating with him. It’s very very sad.

Erin’s I know more than u attitude is exhausting and why I won’t watch the podcast anymore

TIMESTAMP 44:32 of what Mike is talking abt since everyone hasn’t got a chance to see it!!! Here’s good ol’ Buzz Clocking The Dude In The Face!! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-6nUSPXHfiGY.html

If the Clinton's having people murdered isn't brought up imma be upset

Please keep this podcast going!

Will you guys do an episode like this of real world news?? 😮 baby formula just not being available? Out of computer parts? The war being hid from people? A big portion of Canadians pay for American healthcare bc Canada’s is horrible? How different the education systems are, and how what we learn CHANGES way too often, like students call out teachers for teaching them wrong facts about history and etc?

Not Katy Perry’s from Utah right? When she literally has a song called California Girls

Matt's sunglasses were giving D.B. Cooper so I was hoping they would talk about him😭

I don't know if its just me but I ship Carly and mike

Anyone remember the zeitgeist “doc” back in the day???

I’ve been listening to your podcast on my way to class throughout the day and it totally makes my day! 😂

Mile higher podcast has a good episode on MK Ultra & other conspiracies 😎

Love the podcast but please go back to your original seating 😂 it threw me off the whole episode.

Matt thinking hitler is alive 😂

if i didn’t know who carly was and she told me she was 18 i would believe her

Omfg, the panty liner on the armpit trick… I WISH I knew about that when I was 13. I have hyperhidrosis and that trick sounds life changing

Erin needs to go

when Mike talked about people wanting to feel like there is order in the world it made me think of the just-world hypothesis. We learned about it in sociology but it's about how people want to believe the world is fair and just so good people get rewarded and bad people get punished. we want to believe that the world is just and consequently will sometimes look for ways to rationalize injustices

Katy Perry is from Santa Barbara, CA. Hence the song, California Gurls.

Btw, HOW IN THE WORLD did you guys let Carly and Erin get away with not sharing the Conspiracy Theories towards them!? They “caused” RONA19 😂😂. Idk which one will pass this on to them but I’d love if you’d bless us viewers with their reactions to this insane claim ppl actually believed. 🤣🤣!!

The podcast I never knew I needed

my parents own a small mattress store, and you’d be shocked how many people actually buy mattresses. idk about the big mattress companies and if they launder money but i’ve never heard any stories from my parents saying they know any store who launders money.

They went back to the moon a few times and now people like buzz aldrin are pushing for mars.

I think Logan Paul was trolling back when he said the earth was flat lol

The man Buzz Aldrin punched was Bart Sibrel, a small-time filmmaker and conspiracy theorist. He actually has a RU-vid Channel.

We are going back to the moon. It’s expensive so they need a good reason to go back.

My conspiracy is that the ocean is the portal to another world

My brother buys into all the things about electric cars and the batteries for them are worse for the environment then gas oil and coal

Conspiracy Theories is my favorite topic 😌

Been waiting for a break at work to watch!!! Can we do multiple parts for this thanks

My siblings in Christ, do you have any idea how expensive it is to make a rocket, train a team of experts, Olán for any potential outcome in order to go to the moon. I agree with asking "why hasn't some sort of camera been put on the moon" but there can't just be yearly trips to freaking space. Think like Carly; there are probably people smarter than us who have the answers to these questions and we just don't have the attention span to absorb it

Loved this ep guys!!

Thought I would give this a try because I love Matt but Carly and Erin always have to talk about politics and ruin everything. It’s very clear Carly gets all her info from Tiktok she doesn’t need to keep saying it. I’m sure someone people enjoy listening to dense girls talk about their opinions but it ruined the whole podcast. I’ll stick with Hoot and a Half.

do each side decide ahead of time a color scheme to wear because i love it

You guys should do an episode about pet peeves

love all you guys but what you think 4 months later about what the jab has done....? yikes Myocarditis aint no joke

I remember going back to school in 2000, after winter break, and teachers made us write out the full year on the date of our work or else they would confuse it work from 1900. And I remember thinking, who the fuck is gonna think this essay is from January 5, 1900?!?!

Idk what it is but Mike looks really good

I might be late but are carly and erin just friends with matt now? or are they still friends with the other vlogsquad ppl?

we love u carly

Logan Paul made a parody documentary about flat earthers, so no he doesn't actually believe it. 🤣

The only thing I would say about the moon conspiracy is that we’ve been to the moon with crewed and un-crewed landings a bunch of times it’s not just like a one and done thing

The conspiracy theory is that OJ Simpson is actually innocent and was just covering for his son from a previous relationship. His son had an obsession with knives, hated Nicole and that would also explain why the gloves didn’t fit.

46:22 We have been to the moon six times :/

Bob Marley died of a type of melanoma that forms beneath the toenail... rare, but definitely not hard to believe.

Logan Paul made a “mocumentary” about Flat Earthers. He doesn’t actually believe the Earth is flat.

I JUST realized you guys change the thumbnail every week! Haha. I'm slow but I love that you change it up

I’ve learned so much from this 😂 love you guys and gals!

I want to be an ornithologist and I think birds are real but they do be kinda robotic tho
