Conspiracy Theoryology is written and produced by Ryan Nelson, who created the show to explore why we’re drawn to conspiracy theories, the paranormal, and the supernatural. Rather than debating what’s true or false, the podcast examines what makes these topics so captivating—and why they inspire such strong belief and skepticism alike. Each episode dives into the cultural, psychological, and historical roots that keep these ideas alive in our collective imagination.

Why does fiction sometimes feel prophetic?
Why do movies, television shows, and novels seem to echo real-world events before they happen?
In this episode of Conspiracy Theoryology, we explore the idea of predictive programming and the belief that media subtly prepares the public for future events by embedding them in stories long before they unfold.
Rather than asking whether predictive programming is real or intentional, this episode asks a deeper question: why does the idea resonate so strongly in a culture shaped by mistrust, uncertainty, and information overload?
By examining the psychology of pattern recognition, the relationship between fiction and reality, and the human need for narrative coherence, this episode looks beyond coincidence and conspiracy to uncover what predictive programming reveals about belief itself.
