Episode Summary

In 1989, Denver voted to build one of the most ambitious public works ever, Denver International Airport. But even before the airport broke ground, DIA courted controversy and some wild speculation. How did this building become host to numerous strange conspiracy theories?

Episode Notes

No one can get REALLY excited about spending time at an airport.

Sure, granted - vacations are great, but there's not a lot of laughs to be had in shuffling through an x-ray machine, clutching your pants up, wondering how many bare feet have stepped on this floor before yours...

But you can't blame the airport itself. It's not out to make your life miserable.

In this mini-series we look at one such airport that supposedly was built to do exactly that.

Denver International Airport is host of some of the most outrageous conspiracy theories out there, all just hiding in plain sight.

We'll talk to some experts on the subject and dig into what's behind these conspiracies - with the history and art that makes up DIA.
