“My family thinks I’m crazy”… but what if you’re just asking the right questions?
In this episode of Nephilim Death Squad, Raven and TopLobsta sit down with Mark Steeves, host of the My Family Thinks I’m Crazy podcast, to talk about what it’s like living on the edge of alternative research, conspiracy culture, and spiritual curiosity—especially when the people closest to you don’t understand it.
Mark shares his journey into podcasting, how his show grew out of questioning mainstream narratives, and the real-life consequences of going down rabbit holes that most people avoid. The conversation explores the tension between truth-seeking and maintaining relationships, and how many people exploring these topics end up feeling isolated from family and friends.
The episode also dives into:
Why people get labeled as “crazy” for questioning narratives
The origin and growth of the My Family Thinks I’m Crazy podcast
Navigating family dynamics while researching conspiracies and the paranormal
Building community through podcasting and alternative media
The overlap between spiritual curiosity, conspiracy research, and personal identity
Humor as a coping mechanism when your worldview doesn’t match everyone else’s
Blending humor with real talk, this episode captures what it’s like to live in two worlds at once—the everyday world, and the one where you start questioning everything.
