On this episode of Expanded Perspectives, the guys start the show off by talking about the ridiculous amount of pollen, ragweed, and other allergens blowing around in the north Texas air. Then, a person claims to have possibly spotted the Jersey Devil near the pine barrens of southern New Jersey. Next, a person writes in with a possible Sasquatch encounter that happened while out looking for gold in Humbolt County, California.

\nAfter the break, Cam brings up some chilling tales of inventors who created something that led to their own demise. The phrase \u201cfake news\u201d has become almost meaningless as people use it to describe anything going on that they don\u2019t like, but the original purpose was essential. There are websites out there that present conspiracy theories as actual facts when they\u2019re not, and we\u2019ve learned that they actually convince vast amounts of people sometimes. It\u2019s pretty scary. Even though most conspiracy theories don\u2019t hold water, some situations are disturbing enough to warrant another look or two. Over the years, scientists have been on the cutting edge, making pivotal discoveries that have changed the course of the world. It\u2019s understandable that some people might not want those discoveries getting out into the world.
