Phantom Time Theory: Is It Really the Middle Ages? | 98

Phantom Time Theory: Is It Really the Middle Ages? | 98

There are classic debates in the world of the weird. Does Bigfoot exist? Have aliens visited the earth? Did 300 years of our collective history never happen? What, whaa? That's what believers of the Phantom Time Theory think. The theory goes that a couple of emperors and a pope fabricated 300 years of the early Middle Ages. But, if true, why would they do such a thing? Could they have really invented Charlemagne? Does this mean we don't have air-conditioning again? This week we go in search of 3 missing centuries. Plus, how could there be an episode involving Phantom Time without a Ben Affleck reference (there couldn't)? John gets the drop on C-Bot with a drop (it'll make sense). And Brent tries to teach John a thing or two in this blind topic episode. All of that and more on the podcast that isn’t sure about the Phantom Time Theory, but is 100% sure about the greatness of the movie Phantoms – Hysteria 51.
