Who Runs the World? Illuminati Conspiracy Theories (Co-Conspirators Podcast #21)

Time to uncover one of the great mysteries of the world today, one that exists in the shadows yet has the power to influence the direction of global politics: The Illuminati. Does a secret society really pull the strings of all the world's governments, plotting to align them all into a Novus Ordum Seclorum (or New World Order)? Are the powers that be seeking to gain maximum control over the world's population to further their own dark agendas and increase their already massive amounts of wealth and power? Or are these just the delusional ramblings of internet conspiracy theorists? In this podcast, we attempt to shed some light on this mysterious group, breaking down with three conspiracy theories that entertain the potential existence of the Illuminati.

Calum kicks things off with an examination of the family history of Bill Gates, and the claims that his Microsoft fortune was entirely self made. Could he have ties to this shadowy organisation, especially with his presence in the ongoing battle against the global pandemic? Up next, John casts an eye over one of the true music greats, Bob Dylan. Did he really build his distinguished career through his exceptional song-writing abilities, or did he strike a bargain with a more sinister force, one not even of this Earth? Finally, Luke one of the most intricate theories we've featured on this podcast. What links World War II, Brexit, the CIA, the British Town of Milton Keynes, politicians Jacob Rees-Mogg and Nigel Farage, Project MKUltra and the EU to the Illuminati? Listen on to find out!

Join Calum, Luke and John as we break down some of the most interesting conspiracy theories that the world has to offer, covering everything from the most historic plots to the most cutting-edge psy-ops. We aim to offer an informal yet informative insight into some of the explanations and suggestions that the internet has to offer, discussing the factual and the far fetched, in a light-hearted conversation between three close mates. With theories ranging from the plausible to the preposterous, can we be certain that anything is 100% true?
