What Happened to Conspiracy Theories After The X-Files? - Season 3 - Episode 15

This week on And The Year Was 1985, Ryan and Sam go down a serious rabbit hole.

What begins as a discussion about The X-Files and 90s conspiracy culture quickly turns into a wide-ranging conversation about media narratives, UFO disclosure, 9/11 controversies, and even Canadian trade deals.

Before social media, shows like The X-Files helped shape how people thought about government secrecy, alien encounters, and hidden truths. Today those conversations have moved online, spreading through podcasts, forums, and independent media.

In this episode we explore:

• How The X-Files influenced mainstream conspiracy culture
• The difference between 90s conspiracy communities and today’s internet pipelines
• Media control and narrative shaping
• UFOs and the current alien disclosure conversation
• The ongoing cultural debate around 9/11
• Why political and trade decisions can fuel conspiracy thinking
