Ep. 70: Flat Earth

In the incredibly polarized times we're living in, it's comforting to know there are some things we can all agree on, even if it's just the shape of the planet we live on. Right?

This week Sean digs into the history of Flat Earth belief and conspiracy thought, from ancient Greece to Christopher Columbus and right through to the Internet era. There is overwhelming scientific evidence and consensus that the Earth is round and virtually zero evidence to the contrary - so what has kept people so fascinated with this belief for the last 200 years?!
