I love conspiracy theories, though I believe basically...none of them. So I checked this show out but it just got a little too pedantic and seemed poorly made. Can you recommend a specific episode? I'll give it another go.

I don't know about his show, but Ventura is right on when he says there is no difference between Dems and Repubs. His views on the TSA, foreign aid, and the erosion of civil liberties are accurate as well.

I have only seen a few shows but I have liked all of them such as HAARP, JFK assassination, Area 51 and I think the most recent one (I haven't seen it yet) is about the world's water supply. Plus I also like seeing June Sarpong.

Jesse Ventura is insane and anyone who likes this drivel deserves to have his haircut.

Wrong. He is a patriot who is greatly concerned with civil liberties.

I never saw the show, but I read his book, "American Conspiracies"

(I think that's the title). He goes through a history of conspiracies that

happened in America. Informative. A lot of things I'd read before somewhere else, but also some things I'd never heard before like things about the BP gulf disaster

among other things.

love the body..

look I don't think jessie is full of it .. I think what he says is true man ...

he has been around, he has met a lot of people, been a navy seal, been a politician , moved with all kinds of people.
he is rich enough to not go on tv and talk BS just for money.
if he wanted money he could just go back to WWF (wwe)
I watch his shows and lsiten to hiim in talk shows. he makes sense..
most guys don't want to believe him. but I think he is right on the money.

I watched the one about the secret location under the Denver airport. It was very interesting.

The only other one I watched was about FEMA camps. I watched it on YouTube about a year ago. It was interesting as well.

I don't dislike the guy. Grew up watching him on Saturday Night's Main Event. (who else here is old enought to remember?)


I listened to an interview with him on Opie & Anthony a couple of years back. He clearly said that there was no Boxing Day earthquake back in 2004. It has been hard to take him seriously after that.

When I first came across Ventura's show I thought it might expose stuff. The information that he brings up is what I would have considered "general knowledge" at the time. His information is hardly ground breaking. Perhaps for those that have never been introduced to that material, it could have been jaw dropping.

The rabbit hole so, so, so much deeper than what that series really reveals.

Personally, I'm focussing my attentions to the cover-ups in global governance and banking. I have given up standing against the tide, but just readying myself for the coming tsunami of change. I'm learning and growing in hopes to stay on top and take advantage of the coming situations for my own benefit.

Where does he think the tsunami came from? Laughing
