Joe
McFall received his undergraduate degree in Anthropology and
Linguistics from Emory University in 1998. After working himself
silly behind a desk for a few years, he came to the University of
Georgia to pursue back-to-back masters degrees, one in Linguistics,
which he completed in 2004, and one in Artificial Intelligence, which
he is currently pursuing. His interest in strange and unexplained
phenomena began at seven years old, when his grandmother gave him a
copy of a Reader's Digest book called Mysteries of the Unexplained,
which still occupies a prime spot on his bookshelf. Throughout the
rest of his childhood and teenage years, he enthusiastically sought
information on the paranormal and the unknown. In college, this
enthusiasm grew, and he began reading about government conspiracy,
secret history, altered states of consciousness, bizarre political
and religious belief systems, occult practices, futurism and more. He
lives in Athens, Georgia with his two cats, Buddy and Flumpy.

- Right Where You are Sitting Now - "Conspiracy 101"

culture of Conspiracy belief! We decided the subject was so large
that we would wax about some of our own experiences, some key
theories and funny ones to boot!

- Right Where You are Sitting Now - "Taming Wolfie with Jon
Ronson"
This week we chat to one of our
journalistic heroes, Jon Ronson, about: conspiracy theorists, 9/11
truthers, MI5 agents becoming the son of God and just why people
believe silly things. We also witness Jon attempting to train his dog
Wolfie (or is it Woofy…i'm worried I have his name wrong now),
which only furthers my belief that people really don't realise how
much of a pain in the ass dogs actually are!…i'm a cat
person. (Editor: DAMN! It is 'Woofy')
Joining me this
week to grill our guest is our re-occuring charecter, Raymond Wiley!
For those studious listeners out there (no pun intended), Raymond
appeared as our guest on episodes 1 and 6, and like me, is a big jon
Ronson fan!
