The Information Wars: Is EVERYTHING You Read Engineered To MANIPULATE Your Brain?

In 1985, journalists took weeks to verify a story. In 2025, AI pumps out a thousand fake ones before your coffee's even cooled.

Welcome to the Information Wars - where seeing is no longer believing.

This week, Jack and Adam unravel how the truth’s been hijacked by algorithms, media bias, and digital noise.

From Vatican propaganda to Facebook echo chambers, they explore why misinformation spreads faster than facts - and why so many real questions get bundled up with madness just to be dismissed.

You’ll hear:

• How AI is creating fake news at industrial scale

• Why linking conspiracy theories with lizard people discredits legit concerns

• David Icke’s strange blend of insight and insanity

• What the MIT study says about lies being 70% more viral than truth

• How "peer-reviewed scientism" has replaced critical thinking for many

• Why the pub was better at fact-checking than your feed ever will be

Plus:
👉 Jack explains how Alex Jones became a smokescreen
👉 Adam wonders if David Icke might secretly work for MI5
👉 Both hosts question whether we’ll ever trust information again
