Conspiracy Culture

The stuff of conspiracy theories makes for great, entertaining stories in movies, books, and television. And there is no shortage of subjects: from who really killed JFK to the truth behind 9/11. And then, there are subjects from alien invasions to the Moon landing was simulated - theories that are truly out of this world, which according to some, is flat. Many of these crazy concepts have jumped off the pages or screens to become so pervasive in our culture that thousands - even millions - subscribe to them as reality.

Witty, heartfelt, deeply weird, and utterly original, Mr. Yay explores how we grapple with inexplicable sudden shifts in the world around us, and the conspiracy theories and identity crises they birth. If the past we remember has changed, are we who we think we are? Is anyone?

For over 30 years I’ve followed trails that most people never realise exist, moving through neglected archives and even into Freemasonry itself, searching for the information that rarely makes it past controlled environments. The deeper I have gone, the clearer it’s become that the official version of the world is a carefully managed construction, not an honest record.
