Sinisterhood

The concept is centuries old - when a crime is committed, the perpetrator must face justice. For many civilizations, this has meant imprisonment, but the nature of that incarceration still varies widely depending on where the justice is meted out. To some countries, harsh punishment awaits criminals while other places take a softer approach. Which is right and what does it mean for our criminal justice landscape? This week's episode is: The World's Toughest Prisons.

A Swiss hacktivist found a website's exposed code, and now the most powerful people on Earth are scrambling to explain why their names are in a secret society's leaked database.

You're about to hear our conversation with Mike, Alex, and Jesse, hosts of Chilluminati, a weekly paranormal, true crime, and weird history comedy podcast that launched in February 2018, now over 470 episodes in. All three hosts are familiar faces to the YouTube gaming world. And two of them are familiar to the Sinisterhood world.

We previously talked with them in 2023 on a Freaky Friday guest spot. Alex told a story about a weird incident at a college party and Mike got a cursed eBay object as a gift from his co-hosts.
Today we're excited for you all to join us as we discuss disclosure, UAPs, consciousness, existence, ontological shock, and buttholes.
Check out Chilluminati
