Episode 2.19 // Get Out of My Head: MK Ultra & The Monarch Project

Mind control –as a conspiracy and fear– has its long, questionable history in the United States. Starting in the 1950s in response to the Korean War and up through the LSD tests of the 1960s, the American government cooked up some experiments for the purpose of psychological manipulation. The top-secret CIA program MK Ultra spawned suspicion… as well as ideas that twisted themselves into a new conspiracy: The Monarch Project.
