Kylie Jenner recently shared her thoughts on the flat Earth conspiracy theory during a conversation on her sister’s podcast.
Khloé Kardashian launched her podcast, Khloé in Wonder Land, earlier this year, and it has quickly become a favorite among listeners.
In a recent episode, Khloé invited her younger sister, Kylie Jenner, to discuss a range of topics with her.
Khloé explained the reasoning behind the podcast’s name, revealing that ‘Wonder Land’ was inspired by the concept of ‘going down the rabbit hole’, reminiscent of Alice in Wonderland.
In a surprising moment during their conversation, Khloé asked Kylie if she believed in the flat Earth theory, offering a break from speculation about Kylie’s relationship with Timothée Chalamet.
For those unfamiliar with the term, a flat earther is someone who believes, contrary to scientific evidence and consensus, that the Earth is flat rather than spherical.
This belief is largely viewed as a conspiracy theory and is often dismissed by the scientific community whenever it resurfaces.
When prompted, Kylie commented: “I’m a round earther, I think. But honestly, I haven’t had much thought or much research about it.”
Khloé replied: “I’m a round earther. And then Rob sends me all these things about flat earthers and I’m like… do I think anything’s possible? Yes.”
Kylie agreed with her sister on the notion that anything might be possible.
The sisters concluded that they wouldn’t spend much time worrying about it and would carry on with their lives as people have done for centuries.
While the sisters seem untroubled by this theory, scientists take a different stance.
British physicist Brian Cox has previously expressed that the flat Earth conspiracy particularly frustrates him.
In an interview on LADbible stories, he explained why it bothers him so much.
He stated, “I think it’s the flat Earth [theory] because it’s just bizarre. The moon landing stuff is bizarre enough, but the flat Earth thing requires almost everybody who’s sensible in the world to be part of a conspiracy [and] just a small number of people, who in my view appear to be a bit odd, to be the only people who know the truth.”
