Camp Gagnon

A comedian's exploration of conspiracies, true crime, and the occult through solo deep-dives and interviews with people who have wild stories.

The brief

A video podcast that alternates between two distinct formats. In some episodes, host Mark Gagnon delivers solo, documentary-style presentations on fringe topics like the Thule Society or the Ra Material, which he calls a 'SportsCenter for conspiracy theories and mysteries'. In others, he conducts long-form interviews with guests who have first-hand experience with the extraordinary, from former bank robbers to journalists who infiltrate dangerous gangs.

The show's entire aesthetic is built around a campsite theme, with the host welcoming guests to his 'tent' and using camp-related branding. This thematic commitment, combined with the host's dual role as a deep-dive researcher and curious interviewer, sets it apart from more conventional talk podcasts.
