Marilyn Monroe Murdered? Hollywood Conspiracy Theories (Co-Conspirators Podcast Episode #13 w. Special Guest)

More entertainment related conspiracies this week, as we examine some of the secrets of the silver screen to see what conspiracies the world of Hollywood could be hiding. To help us, the Co-Conspirators Podcast welcomes on its first guest, George, a film and journalism graduate who writes for CLAPPER Ltd and also features on their podcast where they present a round-table discussion of film reviews and recommendations.

This week, George kicks things off with an investigation into one of Hollywood's most enduring sweethearts, Marilyn Monroe. Was her untimely death a tragic suicide, or did she become too involved with the darker dealings of the US President John F Kennedy and Attorney General Robert F Kennedy, as well as their ties to the mafia, communism and other conspiracies? Luke discusses the story behind 2015's Spotlight, a film that won the Best Picture Oscar for its portrayal of the investigation into child abuse within the Catholic Church. Was this typical self-congratulation for Hollywood, as they attempted to deflect attention away from their own secrets?

A slight change of pace for John's theory, examining the possibility that one of Hollywood's longest most iconic superhero franchises is afflicted with a curse that has affected numerous actors, actresses and crew members, that being the infamous Superman Curse. Finally, Calum finishes up with one of the more outlandish theories to have featured on the podcast. How does Steven Spielberg's 1977 film Close Encounters of the Third Kind relate to a leaked top secret US Government operation suggesting that mankind has already made contact with extra-terrestrial beings from beyond our solar system?

This podcast aims to offer an informal yet informative insight into some of the explanations and suggestions that the internet has to offer, discussing the factual and the far-fetched, in a light-hearted conversation between three close mates. With theories ranging from the plausible to the preposterous, can we be certain that anything is 100% true?
