GREEDFLATION: Honey, I Shrunk the Snacks! ft. Graeme Strickland
Snacktime Conspiracy is back with your future congressman from the 252, Graeme Strickland! He explains GREEDFLATION, its impact on our snacks, and the importance of competition policy to prevent monopolies from sucking us all up like a Dyson V8. Graeme loves mint Oreos and hot fries but is decidedly anti-conspiracy, citing the dangers the Freemasons and QAnon have unleashed upon America.

Edible Arrangements: pre-and-post Roe v. Wade Aces and Spades
Now that it is no longer a constitutional right in the US to have an abortion, we look at how herbs and foods have been used throughout history to prevent pregnancy and induce abortions. As we all know, banning abortion does not stop them from happening, it merely prevents safe abortions and puts women at risk. The usage of gin, citrus, Queen Anne’s Lace, and other abortifacients was during a time when there was no access to safe abortion; a time we are fearful to revisit. Special thanks to Kate Lebo for her book, Difficult Fruit, for providing information on juniper berries and their usage throughout history as an abortifacient. *We are NOT recommending the use of herbs or food to prevent and end pregnancies.*

An activist discusses the ultimate David and Goliath story: Haagen Dazs and Ben & Jerry’s...ft. Victor Davila
Award-winning activist, Antarctic traveler, and prolific artist, Victor Davila (known by friends as Mama Bear), blesses Snacktime by unpeeling the corrupt layers of an ice cream behemoth straight out of the Bronx much like the man himself.  Davila recounts how Haagen Dazs bullied Ben & Jerry's right out of its humble beginnings in Vermont straight into America's hearts, and how nothing is ever as it seems. In Snacktime's longest episode yet Davila states: "Shared knowledge is power. Power mapping is power. Power is a means to an end and that end needs to be freedom."

WAKE UP to the cult behind Sleepytime Tea
That cozy Sleepytime Tea bear is a symbol of the unconscious in more ways than one.  Today we uncover how Celestial Seasonings was inspired by The Urantia Book, a 2,097-page text of garbage written by William S. Sadler, a eugenicist and student of Freud. The Urantia Book is 4.3 lbs. of racist ideologies disguised in confusing jargon about aliens, the colors of the rainbow, and planet #606: Urantia, aka Earth. We also discuss the disastrous Kardashian-approved Fittea, Skinny Tea, and Bootea, the latter of which is to blame for a rash of pregnancies in the U.K.   Every Snacktime Conspiracy episode somehow connects back to masturbator-haters John Harvey Kellogg and Sylvester Graham as well as our beloved Kimberly Kardashian and this episode is no different. Wake up sheeple! Celestial Seasonings is lying to you!

Grimes and the Pasta Diet - Party Episode Debut
We came up with a new concept: the party episode. What does this mean? We have a plus one, Ms. Alice Gaddis of Idaho, a renowned naturalist of the highest caliber with unheard of insights on the Mormon world and things regarding Grimes. Besides the plus one, something else is involved: a lack of restraint and alcohol. Perhaps those two are listed out of order. Enjoy with a lager or don't enjoy this at all.
