Synopsis:

Dean Haglund is an actor, an improv comic, an artist and an inventor. Best known by millions of fans the world over for playing one of the computer-hacking Lone Gunmen on The X-Files, Dean has become closely identified with the realm of the paranormal and the world of conspiracy. He has even found himself at the center of a conspiracy theory surrounding the events of 9/11.

Equal parts comedy, consciousness and conspiracy, The Truth is Out There follows Dean Haglund as he travels the globe, using his "insider" status to interview conspiracy theorists, researchers, authors, journalists, New Age devotees, scientists and artists.

Do ghosts exist? What are UFOs? Is there a government cover-up concealing the existence of extra-terrestrials? Is there an effort underway to establish a New World Order controlled by the banks or the U.N.? Is the industrialisation of our food and water supply not only responsible for the erosion of our health, but part of a plan put into place by the world's elitists to eradicate a large percentage of the world's population? What really happened on 9/11? Why does proven technology that could change the world and improve our lives not receive mainstream media or corporate attention? Is there a 'spiritual' dimension that humans can learn how to tap into? Dean will listen and learn while discussing all of these topics and more, hoping to discover what it means to search for the truth in a world where conspiracies, or conspiracy theories, are everywhere.
