KING: Jesse Ventura's new show, the title of which is "Conspiracy Theory With Jesse Ventura," debuts Wednesday night on Tru-TV. Here's a sample.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

VENTURA: This is the infamous Hangar 17. This is a place where we've contacted on multiple, multiple occasions to go inside and see what they have inside this building, because there are remnants from September 11th in there. Get up here.

This is what they don't want me to see. We've tried to get in this building. We can't get in it now. The door's locked. You can see girders obviously from the 9/11 site. Why won't they give us access to this building? What is the reason for it?

(END VIDEO CLIP)

KING: Wow. Are you going to do every week? How long is the show on, weekly?

VENTURA: Yes, we're weekly, one hour a night. For seven weeks, we will cover seven different modern conspiracies that go back within the last decade. We won't be covering John F. Kennedy or Dr. Martin Luther King or any of the stuff back then. We kept it to the ten-year last decade. Believe me, the problem, Larry, wasn't finding conspiracies; it was choosing which ones we wanted to cover.

KING: What is the 9/11 conspiracy?

VENTURA: Well, the 9/11 conspiracy is simply that the government hasn't been truthful with us. I mean, Larry, a couple weeks ago, the head of the 9/11 Commission legal -- I believe he's former Attorney General Farmer from New Jersey -- came out publicly and stated unequivocally that at some point the government decided that American citizens would not hear the truth about 9/11. I find that very disturbing.

KING: Which is?

VENTURA: I don't know.

KING: What truth? VENTURA: We can't find it, naturally, because I don't have subpoena power. We don't have the ability to put people under oath and threaten them with prosecution.

KING: What would they be hiding in that bulling?

VENTURA: I don't know.

KING: What are you thinking? In your wildest imagination, what do you think?

VENTURA: Well, in my wildest imagination, I find it very difficult that those buildings could fall at the speed of gravity, without being assisted in some way. And I used to do demolition for a living. And how could those buildings fall as fast as I used to free fall out of an airplane? If you took a billiard ball and dropped it the height of the Twin Towers, and you just merely stopped it and started it every floor in free fall, it would take over a minute and a half to fall to the ground. The buildings were down in 10 seconds.

KING: So you think it might have been something inside?

VENTURA: I think most definitely our government has not been honest with us. Here's the big point I make on 9/11: why is it off limits to talk about it? Why is it off limits to question and ask questions? You know, when I went through Navy SEAL training, I was taught in demolition, Larry, that there is no dumb question. If you don't understand it, it's not dumb. That's how I've lived my life. I have a lot of questions that the government refuses to answer.

KING: Is the 9/11 story the first show this Wednesday?

VENTURA: No, it's not. The first show will be HARP. It's based upon a book that a scientist wrote. It says "angels don't play this harp." It's about an antenna grouping that we have up in Alaska that's supposedly an unclassified research center. If it's unclassified, why wouldn't they let me in?

KING: That's going to be something. Jesse Ventura's new show, "Conspiracy Theory."

VENTURA: Clearly they're not being honest, Larry. If it was unclassified, I could get in.

KING: I get you.

VENTURA: OK.

KING: The new show debuts Wednesday night on Tru-TV. Arianna Huffington and Ben Stein will join the party. And they were invited, next.
