Flat v/s Round

[Dizzie]

Here's a semi-congenial conversation between a few "flat earthers" and scientists. While I regretted that they never seemed to get into the details of compelling arguments on either side, I found the concept and atmosphere of the meeting interesting. The producers of the video did a followup podcast with the sole female participant that revealed a unique journey. The podcast is available on music streaming services.

Not sure how to embed, so here's the link to the video -

I absolutely adore the flat earth theory, and have spent many hours looking at all manner of theories. Of all the weird ideas on the internet, this is probably my favorite.

I watched a Netflix documentary called "Behind the Curve" and thought it was a great dive into that world:

As with most fringe stuff, the documentary pokes fun at the weirdos a bit. Most of that's on the people just being weird, but the way a couple things are cut, you can tell there's a bias towards making them look sillier than they really are.

I am 100% watching this on stream today.
