What do you get when a 1950s radio exec accidentally astral projects, patents brainwave-syncing audio tech, and ends up training U.S. Army personnel to leave their bodies? You get this episode.Today we try explore the mind-bending true story of Robert Monroe and the Monroe Institute — the birthplace of Hemi-Sync, the Gateway Process, and one of the weirdest crossovers between science, spirituality, and national security.We’ll cover:Monroe’s spontaneous out-of-body experiences (OBEs)How binaural beats became a consciousness-hacking toolThe Army’s use of the “Gateway Process” during the Cold WarDeclassified CIA documents that sound like Marvel scriptsWhether the Gateway Program actually ended — or just went deeper undergroundAnd why your Tuesday night meditation might be built on a once-classified military experimentPart brain science, part X-Files, part idiot mystic — this episode is a good primer for anyone who’s curious about the limits of consciousness, the strangeness of history, and why the U.S. government once funded headphone-powered soul travel.This might be one of the last videos like this for a while, I think something much different is coming.I hope you understand that I am trying to lay the building blocks for you of what I know and how I think, so we can see things through a similarly colored lens.
