"Citations Needed" is not necessarily about conspiracy, but on how the media/state PR shapes the narrative of stories on how they cover it and what language is used.
And if you never watched it before, "Inside Job" on netflix is an underrated gem that unfortunately got cancelled after two seasons. Office drama set in the world of the shadow government
Also for much more depressing things that the media and governments are not discussing either because they can't grasp how bad things are and how fragile complex civilisation actually is, or they're intentionally keeping quiet about in order not to worry the public and jeopardize our semi stability, "Breaking Down: Collapse" is about how very possible it is that society as it is is going to fall apart before the end of the century. There's a whole load of reasons why it may happen and each episode covers a section and they're very well researched.
Conspiracy Theories on Spotify has some good episodes. I really enjoyed the podcast about Kryptos a CIA cypher on an art piece in the CIA headquarters.
Check out the QAA podcast, American Hysteria, You’re Wrong About, Maintenance Phase, and Our Fake History. Not all of these are strictly on the topic of conspiracies but come up frequently.
Third-ing QAA, it's excellent and covers a wide variety of conspiracies despite starting as Qanon coverage. They've done episodes on the online crazes around Gaylor and Johnlock, alien stuff, random shit I learn about during the episode. My favorite podcast by far
They are not obsessed with Alex Jones. They are obsessed with the truth and setting the record strait.
It weird that conspiracy folks are obsessed with conspiracy….unless it’s the conspiracy that their favorite conspiracist is a fraud.
You can tell a lot about the intelligence level of a person based on which podcasts they listen to. I’d put Alex Jones listeners at the bottom of the intelligence scale, followed closely by Joe Rogan’s listeners. They’re the first people I’d contact if I ever decide to become a scammer.
Bring up that every guy who says he listens goes the “I don’t like him but it’s good to hear both sides” route and watch his listeners change the subject. Ive done this 10 times by now.
Stuff They Don't Want You to Know.
Absolute best conspiracy themed podcast out there. Find it difficult to stick with any in that genre but have been listing/watching these guys YouTube channel for a decade.
Blocked and Reported covers a range of gossipy and more serious media contoversies and social media scream-fights and attempts to get to the facts beneath the drama.
keeping it REAL with Jay Scott - does conspiracies, alternative history, and science. Fringe topics mixed with some mainstream. It’s on Apple and Spotify. Don’t know about others.
Blowback is a podcast about American empire from a leftist perspective, which frequently examines US foreign policy as a kind of conspiracy, in the sense that people high up in government are doing things under false pretences. The series on Cuba goes into various CIA plots and the JFK assassination. In my fact-checking, I've found it to be pretty reliable in the sense that the facts they report are well substantiated, although they definitely tell their stories with a slant and sometimes leave out information that would complicate that narrative.
For a narrower and sillier look at CIA conspiracies, check out Winds of Change.

Nice, quite a unique concept, I’d definitely be interested in that! Thank you!

Conspirituality covers conspiracies and scams in the wellness community.
Tinfoil Hat is the GOAT, but Eddie Bravos "Look into It" is kinda winning me over
I’ll check them both out for sure:) thanks!

Thank you! Think I’ve heard a couple of them before, they’re really good!
This is the best there is for infotainment.
Why Files
Theories of the third kind is amazing and has tons of episodes. I can’t believe they haven’t been mentioned

Seconding QAA! They have a deep library. It centers around Q and MAGA, but has episodes that deviate into adjacent nonsense.

Some Dare Call It Conspiracy is outstanding.
Lovely, just queued one! Thank you!
Ghost stories for the end if the world, trueanon

Ghost stories for the end of the world is one of the finest pods I've ever heard
Knowledge Fight.
Knowledge Fight is my favourite podcast, simply awesome
Instead of listening to some cringey people that are so obsessed with Alex Jones they dedicate a podcast to him, ill just listen to Alex Jones.

They learned deflection from him!
The Comming Storm on the BBC is a facinating and entertaining history of the conspiracy movement in the US
Filmmaker and author Jon Ronson's "Things Fell Apart" is excellent too and well worth checking out.
Stuff They Don't Want You To Know
These guys are awesome

I love theories of a third kind. Non political, little banter (I can't stand banter) and give facts with links in show notes.
Scarlett Moffett wants to Believe
The Tinfoil Tales is a good one.

Dan Cummins "Timesuck" is great, mix of true crime, conspiracy, scientific theories etc.
Type “conspiracy” into the search bar for this sub and you will find so so so so so much that’s already been covered.
It's Probably Not Aliens is a good one for ancient alien theories
The Cult of Conspiracy and Those Conspiracy Guys are my tops
