About this listen

A Cold War CIA program sought to weaponize mind control, funding secret experiments across universities and hospitals. Researchers tested LSD, other drugs, electro‑shock, sensory deprivation, and “psychic driving” on unwitting subjects, including patients and military personnel. The project’s brutal methods were exposed in the 1970s, leading to public outrage, congressional hearings, and eventual termination. Its legacy raises urgent questions about ethics, consent, and the misuse of scientific power in today’s data‑driven world.
