Conspiracy Theories
As the most prominent figure in all Bump Island media, Carpenter is a central subject in several conspiracy theories.

Microphone hand
Some conspiracists argue that the microphone Carpenter uses is permanently attached to his hand.

Death of Milo Borges
Some have speculated that the crash which killed Carpenter‘s late husband, Milo Borges, was not an accident. Those who believe this theory cite that Carpenter’s ex-boyfriend, Elliott Estrada, was the engineer of the race course for the Grand Prix. They argue that Estrada was either purposeful or negligent in the faulty construction of the ramp intended to bring drivers up to the “deck” of the FCCC.

Controversy
Carpenter has come under criticism for not following the superstition of eating dessert before dinner on Fridays. The rising sea levels observed on Bump Island, considered by most scientists to be a result of climate change, is sometimes blamed on Carpenter.
