Optophobia is the fear of opening one’s eyes. Our show is dedicated to encouraging you — our listeners — to move beyond that fear. To solve riddles they don’t want us to unriddle. To investigate supposedly ironclad truths. To unearth evidence, buried for so long they believed it would stay buried. Each season we tackle a new investigation into what is often dismissively called a “conspiracy theory,” and each week a new guest weighs in. Are you bored by the lies? Open your eyes.

Al Windjammer, owner of Windjammer Shoes, has a message that seems to contradict the family business: Don't wear shoes. While Windjammer shoes are made of animal byproducts from the family farm, most shoes are made from untraceable, mysterious chemicals that are harbingers for germs and viruses. And because most viruses enter the body through your feet, a shoe of unknown provenance is an invitation for Covfefe-19. *** Credits: Stacey Axler played Al Windjammer.
