Altered State S4 Ep. 1: Clones, Comedy, and Controlled Realities

Badlands Media

Brad Zerbo and Zak Paine kick off Season 4 of Altered State with a mind-bending discussion that blurs the line between truth and theory. From YouTube bans and censorship to the strange saga of Dave Chappelle’s disappearance and rumored “replacement,” the hosts dig deep into celebrity doubles, cloning conspiracies, and the psychological toll of uncovering hidden truths. Along the way, they touch on cultural manipulation, occult symbolism, and how spiritual warfare plays out through pop culture. What begins as a wild Hollywood mystery turns into a broader exploration of perception, power, and what it means to wake up in a world that isn’t what it seems.
