The Evident Conspiracy Files, is The Podcast from the Shadows... brought to you by ECF studios. Look into past and present evident conspiracies, see the hidden truths lurking in the shadows. The war of light verse dark. Hosted by Mark Mayhew, and the only podcast to invite the Grim Reaper! Here we dive into these topics, but we bring the humour! Find yourself engaged and questioning, as we dive deep into the world's most mind-bending evident conspiracy theories, from Geoengineering, to the poisons hidden in your food. And of course we can't forget the extraterrestrial's, reports hidden in old files that make more sense today, as the puzzle pieces come together. Suspicious disappearances, from Rudolf Diesel to today's missing scientists. Oh, the Illuminati's blueprints for global control (Agenda 2030) and so much more, join us as we move through the shadows. We take onboard listener requests, so get in contact and give us with your thoughts, send us a text from the 'Fan mail link' or E-mail The_ECF@icloud.com What stands out to you? Let us know, we are generally interested. For us, it's Government corruption!

Episodes
CONTENT NOTE: This episode concerns the real 1900 disappearance of three lighthouse keepers. It separates the documented record from later folklore.
Twenty miles off the north-west coast of Scotland, past the last of the Hebrides, three black rocks stick up out of one of the wildest seas on Earth. On the largest, Eilean Mòr, stood a brand-new lighthouse — and in December 1900, three experienced keepers who tend...
Picture a valley in North Wales. A chapel, a school, a post office, twelve farms, a graveyard with generations of the community's dead. A living, Welsh-speaking place. And far away, in a city, powerful men look at a map, draw a line, and decide it would make an excellent place to store water.
Tonight, Mark and Grim go down — beneath the reservoirs of Britain, to the villages deliberately drowned to slake the th...
CONTENT NOTE: This episode concerns the 1996 murders of Julie Williams and Lollie Winans, and the history of violence and fear faced by LGB people. It is told with respect for the victims and their families and centres the documented record. The crime is discussed but not depicted graphically. Themes include homophobia, murder, and grief.
A lesbian couple, murdered in a national park. A hate-crime fear that gripped t...
CONTENT NOTE: This episode is about real, documented solar geoengineering (solar radiation management) — the deliberate effort to cool the planet by reflecting sunlight. It deals in the public record and clearly separates what's documented from what's rumour. Living people are discussed on the basis of their documented public conduct only.
There's a company. A real one — a handful of people in South Dakot...
10 August 2019. Thirty-six days after his arrest on federal sex-trafficking charges — with no sweetheart deal this time, facing the rest of his life in prison, holding secrets that could bring down the most powerful people alive — Jeffrey Epstein was found dead in his cell. Official ruling: suicide. And within minutes, half the planet said the same four words: Epstein didn't kill himself.
Tonight, the fin...
CONTENT NOTE: Concerns Jeffrey Epstein, the abuse of women and girls, and the failure of institutions to stop it. Abuse is referenced, not depicted. Survivors are treated with respect. Part two of three.
Part one followed the rise and ended on a question: why did so many of the most powerful people on earth want Jeffrey Epstein close? Tonight, Mark and Grim go looking for the answer — and it isn't a comfortable...
Every conspiracy has a beginning. This one begins with a question: how does a college dropout and former maths teacher from Brooklyn — with no obvious source of wealth — end up trusted by presidents, princes, billionaires and Nobel-calibre scientists, living in an embassy-sized townhouse with a private island, while leaving a money trail so thin that to this day no one can fully explain where the fortune...
For seventy years, if you said "UFO" out loud, you were a punchline — a crank in a tinfoil hat photographing hubcaps. Then, quietly, the laughter stopped.
The Pentagon admitted its secret program. Decorated Navy pilots went on the record. And in 2026, the US government did the unthinkable: it opened a public database — PURSUE — and started dropping declassified files. Videos. Photographs. Hund...
There's a place in the high desert of Utah where the local people will tell you not to go. The Ute say it lies "in the path of the skinwalker" — and for generations they've been forbidden to set foot on it. To look at it in daylight, it's nothing. A cattle ranch. Big sky, red dirt, quiet. But this single patch of ground has produced more documented high strangeness than almost anywhere on Earth.
Tonight, Mark, ...
The morning of the 18th of June 1982. A postal clerk crossing London's Blackfriars Bridge looks up into the scaffolding and sees a man hanging from an orange rope. Expensive grey suit. Watch stopped at ten to two. And in his pockets: nearly twelve pounds of broken bricks, fifteen thousand dollars in four currencies, and a passport in a false name.
His name was Roberto Calvi — "God's Banker" — because his ...
The Alchemists — Gold, Fiat, and the Men Who Print Your Reality
London, sixteen-something. A goldsmith stands in his strongroom and has a thought that will reshape the world: hardly anyone ever comes to collect their gold… so what if I wrote receipts for gold that isn't there, and lent them out at interest?
That thought is the seed of every bank on Earth. And tonight, Mark and Grim follow it all the way t...
There's a corridor in an old house where a woman in grey walks the same path every night — straight through a wall where a doorway used to be, two hundred years ago. She never sees you. She isn't trapped, or angry, or lost. She's more like a recording. An echo. And tonight, Mark and Grim ask whether that echo is evidence — a clue pointing at the biggest secret there is. Not about aliens or governments. A...
The morning of 28 November 1953. A scientist comes through a closed window thirteen floors up and falls to the New York pavement. His own government had secretly slipped LSD into his drink nine days earlier — and watched. They called it suicide. Forty years later, his family dug him up, and his bones told a different story.
Tonight Mark and Grim open the one file that needs no exaggeration — because every...
A royal balcony. A wave to the crowd. And for a single frame, a man at home swears the monarch's eyes weren't human. He rewinds it. Plays it again. And a thought takes hold he'll never shake: what if they aren't us?
Tonight Mark and Grim chase the most mocked — and somehow most immortal — conspiracy theory of the modern age: that the royal bloodlines aren't human at all, but shape-shifting reptilian...
Right now there's a document open on the UK government's website with a name so boring your eyes slide straight off it: "Watch this Space: A new strategic direction for UK media." That drowsiness you just felt? That's the weapon.
Buried inside is a proposal to make social media platforms boost "trusted" news sources to the top of your feed — which, in a feed with only so much room, means pushing everything else...
A woman steps from a carriage toward a castle of hand-cut stone in the West Virginia hills. She's the very first patient admitted. The reason on her file? "Domestic troubles." The great doors close, the key turns, and the world forgets she ever existed.
For a century we were told the asylums were full of the mad. But what if many of the people behind those walls weren't insane at all? What if the madhouse was the mos...
The Vanishing Frame -
He invented the movies — years before Edison. Then he vanished off a sealed train, luggage and all, weeks before his big premiere. Suicide, or murder for the crown? The forgotten case of Louis Le Prince.
The 16th of September 1890. A Frenchman boards a direct express from Dijon to Paris with a case of documents that could make him one of the most famous men alive. The train has no sto...

It's three in the morning, and an analyst is staring at a scan of something beneath the pyramids that shouldn't exist — her phone rings and a voice tells her to delete the file.
Tonight Mark and Grim go digging. Straight down through four and a half thousand years of official history to ask one dangerous question: what if the greatest cover-up isn't hiding aliens&hel...

Tonight, we're pulling a body out of the North Sea!
The autumn of 1913. The world is one long, hot summer away from the bloodiest war it has ever seen. And aboard a steamship crossing the English Channel, one of the most famous men alive simply… vanishes. No splash. No scream. No witness. Just an empty cabin, a bed that was never slept in, and a coat folded neatly over the rail like he meant to come back for i...
