EP#145 "The Quest For Mind Control MK-ULTRA & Beyond"

WW2 had just ended and behind the celebrations around the world welcoming back the troops there was a new secret war developing.  That secret war had started years before with espionage and infiltrations of foreign governments. With new weapons being developed like the Manhattan project, a sense of paranoia and distrust was sweeping the nations of the world.   Each of the superpowers were racing to find the best tactics to eavesdrop and spy on each other in hopes of gaining an upper hand. 
It was amidst this background of rampant paranoia that one of the most bizarre and unethical government programs in the history of the United States was created.  Join us as we examine the evidence surrounding this once above top secret project, in this episode of Wild & Weird Radio.
