Is The Earth Hollow?: Conspiracy, UFOs, and...Nazis!
Welcome To The Oddity Shop, Where The Bizarre is Always on Sale. This week, your Curator Zach is taking us to the center of the earth!
We turn our attention below our feet and follow a breathtaking trail through ancient myth, Enlightenment science, wartime secrets, and modern UFO lore to ask whether an advanced civilization could be thriving inside the Earth.
Greek gateways to the underworld, Mayan cenotes lined with ritual offerings, Norse craftsman-dwarves, and the powerful thread of Agartha from Hindu and Buddhist traditions all point to a living world beneath the surface.
The plot thickens in the polar night. Nazi occult expeditions to Tibet, the Arctic, and Antarctica fed persistent rumors of hidden bases and vanished U-boats. After World War II, Admiral Richard E. Byrd led Operation Highjump, a massive Antarctic push that ended far earlier than planned, fueling speculation. We unpack the controversial “Byrd diary” that describes a warm valley inside the ice, a radiant inner sun, telepathic hosts, and disc-shaped craft alarmed by nuclear tests.
Tell us, after listening to this one, Do you believe in Hollow Earth?
