About Isaac Weishaupt:

Host of Occult Symbolism and Pop Culture & Breaking Social Norms podcasts, Author of THE DARK PATH + 8 more on aliens, Illuminati & more. Truthing since ’11. My name is Isaac Weishaupt (*a pseudonym) and I’m the founder of IlluminatiWatcher.com. I’ve been researching my entire life as an ongoing mission to determine if this reality is the truth or a cunning holographic deception. I don’t fully subscribe to any conspiracy theories, but I do find some intriguing if they resonate with any logic (also if they don’t, who am I kidding, some of them are just clever). I live in America and feel that a lot of people are more concerned with being entertained than being informed or educated. Our media reflects that.
