In the 1950s through to the 70s, America's CIA conducted countless studies on unwitting citizens in an attempt to find methods of mind control to use against their Soviet enemies. Sounds like a crazy conspiracy, right?
Except that it's all true, and the scope of it is bigger than most people realize.
Join us as we delve into the intricacies of this project and the CIA's mission for mind control techniques. What was it really? Who was behind it? How could the government allow this? And is it really as bad as it sounds?
All this will be discussed as we take on the mother of American conspiracies: Project MKUltra.
