Ep 40 | Conspiracy Theories We Can't Stop Thinking About: Aliens building the Pyramids, the Moon Landing, Area 51, Flat Earth + more...

This week on Relatable, we somehow go from baby food wins… to true crime… to full-blown conspiracy theories.

We kick things off by celebrating episode 40 and talking about the very real thrill of watching Grayson get more excited about food. Bread, avocado, cauliflower cheese, potatoes? Yes. Apples, blueberries, bananas? Absolutely not.

We also unpack why a recent reel about true crime took off — and why women seem so much more into murder documentaries than men. Sophia explains why she finds true crime so gripping, while Bradley remains deeply confused by the entire genre.

Then we get into the fun stuff:

In this episode, we talk about:

• Why women are so fascinated by true crime
• The viral reel that got people very concerned about Sophia’s “I’d get away with it” energy
• Bradley’s Roman Empire: aliens, pyramids, and ancient civilizations
• Whether aliens built the pyramids
• Area 51 and whether the government is hiding alien life
• The moon landing conspiracy
• The Bermuda Triangle
• Simulation theory
• Flat Earth believers
• Why some conspiracy theories are ridiculous… and others are weirdly convincing

We also cover:

• Bradley’s current reading era and his return to Harry Potter
• Sophia officially embracing co-sleeping
• Why Grayson may or may not prefer Bradley
• The TV shows we thought we loved… and the ones that let us down fast
• The Alexa/Ozempic commercial situation no one asked for

Basically, it’s one of those episodes where we start with babies and end with aliens.

Also mentioned:

• Project Hail Mary
• Harry Potter
• True crime documentaries
• Area 51
• The Bermuda Triangle
• Flat Earth
