What did you think of todays' episode?

This week is like a combo episode of history and conspiracy theories. Even though this is a conspiracy episode, we do take our time to talk some history to lay out the groundwork on this good old fashioned mind control fun times.

Have you heard about MKUltra?

I feel the vast majority of the internet knows of MKUltra--the code name for a covert CIA mind-control and chemical interrogation research program, run by the Office of Scientific Intelligence. During the early period of the Cold War, the higher ups at the CIA became convinced that communists had discovered a drug or some technique that would allow them to control human minds. This idea of brainwashing was a palatable way to deal with soldiers that came back parroting communist propaganda from Korea, and why there was such a huge uptick in Americans supporting communism post WW2. In response to the idea of brainwashing, the CIA began its own secret program, to search for a mind control drug that could be weaponized against enemies.

Did it work? I hope you know the answer, but take a listen to hear about some of the conspiracy theories associated with Project MkUltra.
