But what happened to these intrepid civil servants? And could their sickness be tied to something nefarious? Mel Cowan thinks so, and Mel Cowan is very very smart. Mel has a theory that is so devious, so terrifying, so confusing, that it will change how you think about microwaves forever. Prepare to learn about political intrigue, audio engineering, the navy, Tanganyika, bugs, and puppies. Oh my god this puppy.
