In this episode, Syd tells us the story of MK-Ultra (aka Project Artichoke), the goat-loving chemist in charge, and how the CIA worked in the 1950's and 60's to develop methods of mind control, often by slipping unsuspecting victims huge doses of LSD. We're talking conspiracy theories, rumors, and the stranger-than-fiction truth of what really went down.
