Jesse 'The Body' Ventura bodyslams Kansas' National Bio and Agro-Defense Facility

The season premiere of Jesse "The Body" Ventura's Conspiracy Theory went on the offensive against moving the Plum Island Animal Disease Center to Kansas.

The controversial Plum Island facility is off the coast of Long Island and the thought of moving it to Kansas shocked the former boa wearing pro wrestler and governor of Minnesota. The show was full of campy moments, including Ventura going on a "raid out of my Navy frogman days" on the island (spoiler! He never makes it onshore) and the discovery of the so-called "Montauk Monster," a supposedly unidentified mutant creature that The Body and his crew wonder whether it washed ashore from Plum Island.



Ventura apparently doesn't keep up with the news. When he hears that the

facility is going to be moved to Kansas, he says: "Are you kidding me?

They're going to move a bio lab into the central part of the country

where the majority of our food supply comes from?"

Ventura dispatches one of his investigators to Manhattan, Kansas, to investigate the National Bio and Agro-Defense Facility and talks to Thomas Manney, a Kansas State professor leading the No NBAF opposition group. Manney is worried about the spread of foot-and-mouth disease.

"Almost any outbreak would be a worst case scenario," Manney told

Ventura investigator June Sarpong. "As soon as it was detected, which

could be a week or two, then this whole area, three, five miles,

whatever they decide, the animals would be slaughtered."

Manney also worries that being in tornado-heavy Kansas could also pose a problem if the facility's door seals cannot "withstand the pressure drop of a tornado." He claims the outbreaks at Plum Island are due to the door seals. All of this with bumper images of a NBAF sign featuring K-State's power cat.

As for the other side, the NBAF' website says there are no safety or security concerns with the facility, which should be operational by 2015. That's reassuring. Like the NBAF website would lie to us.

Ventura also hits on cover ups of outbreaks at Plum Island, a mutant human's body washing ashore with holes drilled in his head and whether lyme disease was planted in ticks and unleashed upon America.

You can download the Plum Island episode for free on iTunes or catch the replay on TruTV Friday night. It's the second time I can recall the show referencing Kansas. The first was about the apocalypse with old missile silos in Kansas being turned into condos for the end of days. Anyone hear about these?

Ryan is right. The silo is now home to a family that will give tours to anyone interested.

I've lived in Wamego for most of my life and things got real crazy that early morning when the bust happened.

yea i remember a rolling stone article about a man named leonard pickard who had an lsd lab in a missile silo that his partner in crime had converted into a home. i think this was around 2000-2001. it was the cover story. if i remeber correctly it was titled the king of lsd.
