Episode 18 – Paradigm Shift – A Student With Questions about 9/11 and the Possibility of Explosives

“Paradigm Shift” is the name used by a poster on Metabunk. Paradigm Shift had made many posts about 9/11, and the need, as he sees it, for a new investigation to look into the possibility of explosives being used to bring down the twin towers. Online discussions can be slow-moving and fractious, so I asked him to come on the podcast for a more detailed and direct conversation about what we believe, and why we believe it. Paradigm Shift is a student in his mid-20s. The drum graphic is what he uses as an Avatar on Metabunk.   * Plane Crash into Empire State Building * NIST Reports of 2005 (WTC1 & WTC2) and 2008 (WTC7) * Video of WTC7 Fires * Windsor Tower Fire and Partial Collapse * Mick West Debating Tony Szamboti * Operation Paperclip (German Scientists Recruited Post WWII) * Operation Mockingbird (CIA’s infiltration of the Media from the 1950s to 1970s) * The Last Column at Ground Zero, removed May 28 2002.

Om Podcasten

Tales from the Rabbit Hole is an interview-style podcast focusing on people whose lives have been affected by the conspiracy theory rabbit hole. Guests will include both former and current believers in a variety of conspiracy theories, as well as debunkers, skeptics, and the investigators of those theories. I’m Mick West, a debunker. I wrote the book Escaping the Rabbit Hole – How to Debunk Conspiracy Theories using Facts, Logic, and Respect. This book came from my experiences running Metabunk – a debunking forum. Over the years I realized simply presenting corrections to people is not enough. We need effective communication, and we can’t do that if we don’t listen to and talk with each other. I’m hoping this podcast will help bridge that gap.
