Hey, everybody, welcome to crackpot the podcast where each and every week we dive into a different conspiracy theory and discuss

the merits or the demerits of each. We're your host. I'm Tim and I'm Zach. Hey, Zach, welcome.

Thank you. Finally, you're welcoming me to my own space. Exactly. I respect that. It's great to be

here. It is. Air conditioner is working tonight, which is awesome. The last couple of shows we've done, like, I don't know what's going on. The air conditioner just wasn't working fully. It wasn't super comfortable. No, and so by the end of, what did we tape, probably three shows that night, it was just like, I need to do something. I can't sit here and swelter anymore. Yes. No. So. Feels good. It feels great. It does. Thank you. Yeah, well, it works. I really had nothing to do with it. Good. I kind of want to just jump into this, man. This is an exciting one. Okay. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So the large Hadron Collider. You heard of it? Of course. Good.

I, uh, so this was on our list just basically as the large Hadron Collider. And I'm like,

okay, I'll got to look at that. Maybe there's something out there. And I was like,

ooh, there's one. Ooh, there's one. Oh. It never ends.

There are so many conspiracy theories about this. I doubt I got all of them. I think I got the big

ones. I think. Okay. We'll find out sooner off. We'll find out, right? Conspiracies aside, Zach.

Yes.

What's your level of knowledge?

Don't feel ignorant?

Let me tell you my level of knowledge.

Big giant circle thing that did science.

Somewhere in the ground, somewhere in Europe.

That was it.

Okay.

Mine was just slightly more than that, and I think most of it's based on reading the Da Vinci Code. Ooh. Yeah, so we had... I forgot about that. Let me tell you what I know. By the way, listener Dan Brown, call me back. Yeah, buddy, get on the show. Large is a particle accelerator slash collider as i understand it

and the intent is and it's yeah it's in switzerland uh i believe cern is the uh overseeing

body correct correct yes yes and they smash particles together at high rates speed and my understanding

was basically they were trying well they're testing a number of different theories. Yep. But the one that I think got the most press was around black holes and maybe anti-matter or something like that. Maybe. Maybe. You know, I mean. Am I spoiling the show? No, you're certainly not. I don't know that. I mean, they were probably studying black holes.

Sure. I would say that the big one they were trying to do was the God particle, right?
