Today we're moonwalking straight into the chaotic world of Apollo 11 conspiracy theories — where facts are optional, confidence is abundant, and someone somewhere is insisting the shadows “just don't line up.”Although millions watched the moon landing live, doubts started swirling almost immediately. Then along came Bill Kaysing in 1976, brandishing his book We Never Went to the Moon: America's $30 Billion Swindle like a tabloid headline written during Mercury retrograde. With one extremely shouty title, he helped launch the conspiracy movement into the stratosphere.In this episode, we unpack how the media fanned the flames, why the 1970s were ripe for a hoax explosion, and how wildly confident claims take hold of public belief. We explore the history, the hysteria, and the hilariously bold certainty of people who've never set foot on the moon — or a film set, for that matter. Did we really land on the moon? Nikki and Cheryl are here to deliver the RECEIPTS, PROOF, TIMELINES! Topics Covered: • Apollo 11's early doubters • Bill Kaysing's “did he really say that?” arguments • Why conspiracy theories thrive in chaotic times • The media's role in shaping hoax culture • How narratives stick and spread • Why media literacy still matters (and always will)If you're interested in more true crime deep dives, hit subscribe and ring the bell to stay updated.

Panic, confusion, and a scandal that would see the show banned for over a decade.Join us as we unpick how Ghostwatch blurred the lines between fact and fiction, why it terrified an entire nation, and how it paved the way for the modern horror genre. From Michael Parkinson's chilling final moments to the real-life consequences for viewers, this is the story of the hoax that went too far.Expect spooky nostalgia as we explore the show that made Britain believe in the supernatural — if only for one terrifying night.

Cheryl The Queen and Nikki Druce are two incredible people in their own right. You might know Cheryl from “RuPaul's Drag Race” and “UK vs. the World” and generally being hilarious and being ‘The Queen Of Essex'. And you might know Nikki Druce as ‘London's Spooky Specialist'. Nikki hosts “Macabre London” and is an expert on Haunted History and True Crime and has so much incredible (and very interesting) knowledge on the subject. Which you'll definitely hear some of throughout this episode. Together, they make the podcast Killers, Cults and Queens, and they spend their time looking into some of the craziest true crime cases in history, spine-tingling spooky paranormal activities, the weirdest corners of the internet, and the freakiest cults.
