 It's for your own good, weirdos.

Hello and welcome to another episode of KEEP IT WEIRD; the podcast for all things strange and unusual. declassified and dangerous, haunted and hinky and everything in between.

Every time we get together it's another opportunity to talk about something WEIRD and this week is definitely no exception.

Ashley starts us off with a DECLASSIFIED diving into yet another secret CIA operation called Operation Midnight Climax and yes it's exactly what it sounds like. A decade long operation under the MK ULTRA program wherein the CIA hired sex workers to bring clients back to their government funded bordello and illegally dose them with LSD and other mind altering substances.

Lauren takes us into an UNSOLVED MYSTERY straight out of Black Forest Colorado-- where a family moves into a home that may actually be built directly on top of a rip in space-time. Flashing lights, loud sounds, apparitions, music, laser beams, chemical burns, and faces in all of the mirrors. Count me out, fellas.

And last but not least we tiptoe into TERRIFYING TECHNOLOGY and examine the theory that our modern technological boom may have been a gift (or a weapon) given to us by extraterrestrials all the way back in Roswell, New Mexico. We discuss Colonel Phillip J Corso's claims that whatever crashed in Roswell led to fiberoptics and microchips & therefore computers an the internet and we also take a look at an indigenous tribe, deep in the Amazon, called the Marubo and what happens when you give a community their first access to the internet.
