New episodes coming soon. "Madness" unravels the shocking story of forced brainwashing and the murky history of CIA-funded mind-control experiments.

Produced by the ILAB at WBOR, Boston. Scratch the surface of the internet and you will find conspiracies. A lot of conspiracies. Vaccines kill babies. The deep stations. They designed the disease in a secret facility. The line between fantasy and reality blurred. What if we told you?

One thing of CIA is very good at is destroying evidence. One of those conspiracies was actually. True. People have a hard time listening and grasping the reality of this. It shatters their belief system. What came home was a shadow, a shell of a man. I want everyone to know that I went through hell. This April, endless thread is back with a new series about one of the biggest open secrets in Western history,

a program with one objective. They saw him confessing and they thought, somebody else is control. the sky's mind. A secret that changed how we fight our wars, how we heal people, how we torture, even how we free our minds. The CIA was trying to frame this as an LSD testing program. A CIA program with an unwitting ally, a doctor in Montreal with surprising methods and a whole bunch of test subjects.

He was one of the leading psychiatrists in the whole world. Life deprivation, shock treatment, hallucinogenic drugs, and she lost her soul. She was a pacifist, and she was disgusted and mortified that she'd been used as a guinea pig to create human weapons of war. You know, he did have the attitude that, to make an omelette, you have to crack a few eggs. And nobody's been accountable for it. Accountability is like a ghost.
