    4. Was Rasputin Really a Mystic - Or Just Very Hard to Kill?
    Jun 16 2025

    🧠 Poisoned, shot, beaten, drowned — yet the legend says Rasputin refused to die. In this episode of Probably Not True, we dig into the life, death, and myth of Grigori Rasputin. Was he really a mystical healer with supernatural powers, or just a very stubborn man with excellent luck and terrible enemies?

    From royal intrigue to his famously bizarre assassination, we separate fact from the historical fanfiction.

    The Phantom Time Hypothesis: Did 300 Years of History Never Happen?

    🧠 What if 300 years of history — including Charlemagne, the year 1000, and centuries of kings — never actually happened?

    In this episode of Probably Not True, we unpack the bizarre Phantom Time Hypothesis: the theory that the Early Middle Ages were completely fabricated.

    From calendrical conspiracies to missing tree rings, we separate fact from fiction — and show why Charlemagne was probably not a medieval fever dream.

    2. Did Aliens Build the Pyramids?
    Jun 9 2025

    🧠 Egypt, 4,500 years ago: no cranes, no steel, no diesel engines.

    Yet towering above the sands, the Great Pyramid of Giza stands as one of humanity’s most astonishing achievements. So how did they build it?

    In this episode of Probably Not True, we tackle the popular — and problematic — theory that aliens helped build the pyramids. From ancient astronaut myths to real-world engineering, we explore how human ingenuity, not extraterrestrial intervention, stacked 2.3 million limestone blocks withmathematical precision.
