This is a show that deconstructs urban legends, so people are challenging me all the time,

because they always think they've got the one thing that even I can't disprove.

One such legend is that ancient India had nuclear weapons technology, like thousands of

Hi, this is Ray Maliyasi from Cartoggle.

Since you appreciate the facts, you know that Skeptoid brings the rigors of science to

the world of wacko theories.

But do I know about wacko theories?

Well, my brother and I are responsible for all of them.

But you can combat wacko theories and support science journalism at Skeptoid with your

Now, even your old car can be donated to Skeptoid and turned it to more of the podcasts

that you love.
