Episode 30: MKUltra

Silence.

Deafening silence. 

That's the sound of the frigid void left when your most favorite RSS feed (at least top 3, right? ... alright, top 10 then? ... fine, I'll settle for "listenable on a bi-weekly basis most of the time") goes dark for 3 months. 

And then, breaking through you hear a rising tide of synth wave beeps and boops. 

WE'RE BACK BABY!!! Like it or not we're set to continue our bi-weekly upload schedule after 3 months away. And boy are we coming back with a doozie: government sanctioned mind control experiments!

This episode we're covering MKUltra, a true story about one of the darkest corners of the US government. I wouldn't consider this a feel good episode so buckle up!
