The ferryman at Oliver's Ferry wouldn't carry anyone across the narrows after dark, and two centuries later that is still the first thing told about the place. | #WDRadio HOUR ONE: A 178-year-old mystery comes to the surface in a Philadelphia suburb. (Grandfather's Ghost Story Leads to Mass Grave) *** Recently a wrecking crew began tearing down and old building in Rhode Island. But the big burly men on the crew got so frightened they refused to continue the work. Does reconstruction of a home or building anger the souls who once lived there? (Does Remodeling Your Home Disturb The Spirits Who Died There?) *** The way life has grown on our planet requires that all living things feed off each other and must kill others in order to survive.  That's the way of the world if you want to live for any more than a few days. But some people are now claiming they can live without food at all… indefinitely. (Life Without Food) *** Three men were in a shed selling gardening supplies when some strange powder suddenly hit the ceiling. Before they had time to react, a small jug on a shelf abruptly flew across the room. One man picked up the jug and placed it a covered box. Instantly, the jug was...somehow...back on the floor. And that was just the beginning of the strange haunting of a community's garden shed. (The Poltergeist In The Allotment Shed) *** In the movie Salt, Angelina Jolie plays a double-agent who is mind-controlled by scary remnants of the USSR secret service. And in real life, the 1940s bombshell Candy Jones was apparently brainwashed with drugs and used as a CIA covert operative.  (The Supermodel Who Was Brainwashed Into Becoming a Spy) *** No one knows exactly when she was born. Some think, maybe, she was a gypsy. Others say she was the seventh daughter of a seventh daughter. The life of Elizabeth Barnes is a mysterious one, filled with many loves, losses, and prognostications. (The Witch of Plum Hollow) *** Some travelers, arriving late at night to board Oliver's Ferry the next day, stayed at Oliver's house. But they were never seen making the ferry crossing the next morning. Is it possible that the rumors are true – that they never left the house alive? (The Frights of Oliver's Ferry)==========HOUR TWO: An eerie tombstone stands watch over one of Portland Oregon's oldest cemeteries. And the story behind that tombstone is a strange one. (The Guardians of Lone Fir Cemetery) *** Don't take a gift from Little Gracie's grave... or her life-like statue might cry tears of blood. (The Ghost of Gracie Watson) *** When it came to her daughter's Elsa doll, one mom was eager and ready to “Let It Go”. But the doll supernaturally refused to be let go!

he Trials of Christopher Slaughterford) *** Two authors reported a very strange encounter with a mysterious entity they believed was not of this world. What did they see and why were they under the impression this being was not of this world? (An Author's Encounter With A Not-Of-This-World Entity)==========SUDDEN DEATH OVERTIME: For Allen Taylor, January 15, 1919 was just another day on his farm near Prescott, Iowa.

In 1968, a Soviet ballistic-missile submarine disappeared somewhere in the Pacific. The Soviets couldn't find it, but the United States did - and what happened next involved Howard Hughes, a fake deep-sea mining company, a gigantic mechanical claw and a ship secretly designed around one nearly impossible mission. This week, we dive into Project AZORIAN, the CIA operation that attempted to steal K-129 from three miles beneath the Pacific Ocean without the Soviet Union realizing what was happening. Then we play the Yap Yap with Magician Cameron Zvara!  Did you know The Internet Says It's True is now a book?

For decades, the so-called “Dulles Plan” has been cited as evidence that American intelligence plotted to destroy Soviet society from within by corrupting its culture, morality, and institutions. But when we trace the famous document back to its origins, the trail leads somewhere unexpected—not to a CIA archive, but to Soviet fiction. This episode investigates how a fictional villain's words became a supposed secret American blueprint and why the story proved so difficult to kill.

Eight Ecuadorian fishermen vanished. Two other fishing boats were hit by explosive drones. Survivors say armed men hooded and detained them before they were taken toward El Salvador. Then investigators uncovered a mysterious surveillance aircraft, and reporting linked the attacks to a covert CIA operation. We trace what happened to the Fiorella, the men who survived, and the secret operation unfolding near the Galapagos.Watch the full episode on YouTube:▶ https://bit.ly/TheoriesOfTheThirdKindYTSupport the show + unlock bonus episodes:

In this gripping twenty-eighth installment of our Jack Ruby miniseries, we finish out the two part story tell of Jolly West. We revisit the infamous late-night meeting on Saturday, November 23, 1963, at Simon's Garage between Jack Ruby, off-duty Dallas patrolman Harry Olsen, and Carousel stripper Kathy Kay (K. Helen Coleman). We contrast Jack Ruby's later jailhouse claims—that Olsen explicitly prompted him to kill Oswald to save the Kennedy family further grief—with Olsen and Kay's flat denials and convenient claims of amnesia. We trace how defense attorney Melvin Belli later seized upon this parking garage caucus to argue police incitement, prompting the FBI to conduct extensive re-interviews of Olsen, Kay, and former Carousel bookkeeper Roy William Pike (alias Mike Ryan and Mike Pike) to determine whether Ruby was egged on by Dallas law enforcement.We then step inside the Dallas County Jail for the dramatic June 7, 1964 cellblock interview between Jack Ruby and Chief Justice Earl Warren. We detail Ruby's intense paranoia and isolation, including his insistence that a Jewish person be present in the room—leading to junior counsel Arlen Specter being brought in—and his desperate, repeated pleas to be transferred to Washington D.C., warning that his life was in mortal danger in Dallas and that American Jews were being slaughtered in retaliation. We analyze Chief Justice Warren's flat refusal to grant Ruby's transfer request, writing off the prisoner's frantic appeals as the unhinged delusions of a broken, psychotic mind.Finally, we examine the long-term shadow cast by Dr. Lewis Jolyon "Jolly" West's psychiatric evaluations and his hidden ties to the CIA's top-secret MKUltra program. Following West's follow-up June 1964 evaluation declaring Ruby's psychosis chronic—which effectively neutralized the reliability of any lie detector test—we trace the decades-later revelations from the Church Committee, unsealed off-site MKUltra records, and investigative journalist Tom O'Neal's unearthing of West's UCLA archives. Featuring insights from West's long-time colleague Dr. J. Shirley, we explore how West's diagnosis permanently sidelined Ruby as a competent witness, closing the book on the man who killed Lee Harvey Oswald and ensuring the case's most enduring secrets remained locked away.

In this chilling twenty-seventh installment of our Jack Ruby miniseries, we step inside Cell 6F2 of the Dallas County Jail on Sunday, April 26, 1964, just six weeks after Jack Ruby was sentenced to die in the electric chair. Following a frantic, desperate suicide attempt the previous night where Ruby smashed his head into his cell wall and tried to fashion a noose, a renowned psychiatrist arrived to conduct a series of closed-door examinations. That psychiatrist was Dr. Lewis Jolyon "Jolly" West. Brought in by appeal attorney Hubert Winston Smith—who initially sought to use hypnosis and sodium pentothal to unlock Ruby's memories of the shooting—Dr. West emerged from the cell to drop a public bombshell: declaring that Jack Ruby had suffered an acute, sudden psychotic break marked by severe paranoid delusions, visual and auditory hallucinations, and a hysterical belief that his family was being dismembered and American Jews were being systematically executed in retaliation for his crime.However, behind Dr. West's respectable academic profile lay a sinister, top-secret dual life. We explore the unsealed federal files exposing Jolly West as a chief contractor for the CIA's infamous MK Ultra program (Subproject 43). We trace his decade-long career experimenting with LSD, hypnotic trance states, and chemical interrogation techniques designed to alter memory, induce temporary insanity, and implant false recollections without a subject's knowledge. Furthermore, we confront the most enigmatic, unexplained sentence in West's official eight-page medical affidavit filed in court—where West explicitly recorded that "some material pertaining to the shooting of Oswald was obtained" during his cellblock sessions, yet bluntly noted that this critical information was being withheld and "not included in this report."Finally, we examine the immediate, contentious aftermath inside the Dallas legal system. We detail Judge Joe B. Brown's abrupt rejection of the defense's motion to transfer Ruby to a state mental hospital, as the judge dismissed West's findings and demanded independent court-appointed physicians. We also analyze the subsequent evaluation by Dallas psychiatrist Dr. William Beavers, who confirmed Ruby's severe psychotic depression while casually dismissing the possibility of "toxic psychosis"—drug-induced insanity—on the naive assumption that a jail cell was a "protected situation." We explore the tragic, unsettling paradox of a mentally collapsing prisoner left locked in a high-security cell while the CIA's premier mind-control expert walked out the door carrying an unrevealed secret about the murder of Lee Harvey Oswald.

Bennett Borden is the founder of Clarion AI Partners. In this conversation, he tells Dov what three years on the streets installed in him that no law degree ever could, what it felt like to watch the definition of good and bad guys keep shifting over eight years at the CIA, and what it was like to stand at the Berlin Wall the night it came down, because he had gone there deliberately.He also delivers the most practical thing any leader deploying AI needs to hear: transforming your organization with AI is twenty percent technological and eighty percent psychological. Most leaders are getting both wrong.The question Dov asks at the end, about what that boy on the streets would think of the man Bennett became, produces the most honest and unexpected answer in this series. Bennett says he couldn't have answered it two years ago. What changed, and what he says he now feels for the first time in his career, is worth staying for.Connect with Bennett:LinkedIn: Bennett Borden: https://www.linkedin.com/in/bennett-borden/Website: https://clarionai.comEmail: bennett.borden@clarionailaw.comConnect with Dov:Website: https://DovBaron.comApply to work with Dov: dovbaron.com Email: dov@dovbaron.comWe sincerely appreciate it; please rate, review, and subscribe.

A talk with former CIA officer Kent Clizbe about the exaggerated, irresponsible claims made by many self-described “behavior experts,” focusing especially on Paul Ekman, Joe Navarro, microexpressions, and attempts to detect deception from body language. We discuss why facial expressions and physical movements cannot be interpreted through a universal dictionary, how cultural and individual differences make behavioral judgments especially difficult, and why nervousness or discomfort is rarely meaningful evidence of guilt or deception in high-stakes situations. We examine the failed TSA SPOT program, the influence of shows like “Lie to Me” (which was loosely based on Paul Ekman's work), and the lack of convincing real-world, high-stakes examples supporting “behavior expert” claims. We also explore how behavioral hunches can contribute to tunnel vision, false confessions, and wrongful convictions; why games like poker can offer a more constrained and useful setting for behavioral reads; and why the most actionable information in high-stakes situations almost always comes from what people say, what they leave out, and how their statements compare with known facts.

Stephen Garrett is back from Venice, Neal Pollack was in Venice earlier this year. And the one thing they can agree on: Venice is very hot in the summer. But only Stephen attended the Venice International Film Festival, and man, did he see some great movies. We should watch out for Ink, the new Danny Boyle movie about the Rupert Murdoch assault on London's stodgy Fleet Street newspapers in 1969, a new 1973-set CIA thriller comedy from Martin McDonagh, starring John Malkovich, and NAZA, a documentary about the IDF's activities in Gaza that we're certain will be the topic of nuanced debate online. Also playing in Venice (and Austin, where Neal saw it) is Oasis: Don't Look Back In Anger, a fantastic documentary about Oasis' 2025 world reunion tour. Neal was already a fan, and Stephen, well, he's a lad now. Beautifully made, with great sound, this is a hallmark of rock documentary filmmaking. More divisive is Hope, a South Korean monster movie that's also a sci-fi movie. Or is it an absurd character comedy. This movie changes gears every hour, and it's almost three hours long. Neal and Stephen loved the first hour, and the rest, well, you'll just have to listen to the episode.

Did world elites wipe an entire advanced empire from the map and steal free energy from the public? In this mind-bending episode, UK alternative history researcher Guy Anderson dives deep into the mystery of Tartaria—a lost global civilization that harnessed clean, etheric energy using sacred geometry, star forts, and cathedral power stations. We explore Nicola Tesla's suppressed final interview regarding cathedral cathodes, CIA documents detailing historical cover-ups, Anatoly Fomenko's theory of a 1,000-year timeline falsification, and how 19th-century orphan trains and insane asylums were used to quiet dissent during a global historical reset. Plus, discover why the word "founded" on old buildings might actually mean "found dead and buried."

 In this action-packed hour, UK researcher Guy Anderson explores the mystery of Tartaria—a lost global empire that allegedly harnessed free ether energy through cathedrals functioning as power stations before its history was systematically erased. Then, investigative journalist Ross Coulthart delivers exclusive updates on a newly declassified 1952 UFO recording detailing military panic during the famous Washington, D.C. radar flyovers.The midnight madness continues with discussions on the secrecy around Elon Musk, caller theories on CIA connections, and iconic urban legends.

In this week's Conflicted Conversation, UCL associate professor Philip Cunliffe makes a provocative case: far from being polar opposites, global Islamism and American unipolarity were born of the same globalised order. But what happens when that order starts to fall apart? And is today's rising New Left inadvertently fighting to save the liberal-imperial system it says it wants to destroy? For deeper dives and world-class Q&As with Aimen Dean, join the CONFLICTED COMMUNITY here: https://conflicted.supportingcast.fm Philip and Thomas discuss: How U.S. unipolarity and globalisation reshaped the world after the Cold War Why Cunliffe thinks ‘global Islam' is a distinctly modern political phenomenon How early state-seeking Islamism gave way to transnational Islamism and jihadism Why neoliberal globalisation weakened state sovereignty and boosted Islamist networks The strange overlap between liberal humanitarianism and jihadist causes How the CIA, Afghanistan and Syria blurred the line between ally and enemy Why the new American Left could revive the logic of liberal interventionism over Israel What comes after the decline of American empire: sovereign nation-states or rival new blocs?

He found his wife's name in the files on Britain's Epstein. Who else knew what was happening? Documentary maker Keaton Stone joins Andrew Gold on Heretics to discuss his investigation into Mohamed Al-Fayed, the former Harrods owner who holidayed with Princess Diana. What began with his wife's CV became a years-long search for the truth, pursued from his garden shed. The story behind “Britain's Epstein” reaches across the Atlantic. Keaton recounts allegations involving an American ambassador's daughter, explains how former CIA operatives working privately for Vanity Fair investigated Al-Fayed, and describes finding his wife's name in their surveillance records. From warnings to Princess Diana to accounts of hidden corridors and a revolving bookcase, Keaton describes the world behind Al-Fayed's public image. He discusses allegations about police, doctors and other enablers, the BBC documentary, Harrods' response, and the more than 500 survivors he says have come forward. He also explains why, in his view, public sympathy after the deaths of Diana and Dodi Al-Fayed changed the effort to expose Dodi's father. How did Al-Fayed escape accountability during his lifetime—and who still holds the evidence that could help survivors today?

Ultra TDS-Truth Derangement SyndromeMK Ultra mind control was unleashed on the global population 2016 whensheer numbers of us overrode rigged algorithms in electronic votingmachines to elect anyone who was not Hillary Clinton and her New WorldOrder.Media failed to show the Great Awakening had reached critical massbecause they were too busy spinning polls for Hillary's planned win.A global union of intelligence operatives concerned with preserving thesanctity of humanity's free thought, of which Mark Phillips was part, hadlong since determined that a change of government would be short livedunless the people woke up. So when vast numbers of awake and awarepeople became the change in 2016, it signaled a global movement to startdismantling the New World Order.The world rejoiced as the Washington DC human trafficking swamp wasexposed and its funding mechanism of drug and human trafficking acrossopen borders stifled.Who remembers Hillary Clinton's face when she lost the election? Iremember it as well as I remember the torturous MK Ultra abuses shesubjected me to along with her child sex trafficking/harvesting ops becauseseeing her defeat felt like justice was finally being served. To me, theultimate justice is positive change through public awareness and the GreatAwakening began accelerating so fast Hillary and her cohorts becamefrantic.Character assassination of the people's choice for President throughperpeTraitors' controlled media voice would undermind confidence, createdivision, and slow the dismantling of New World Order while shifting it toAgenda 2030.Repetition is the most basic form of mind control. How many times did youhear the media say “Impeach”? While the conscious mind is frozen in frightor fear, the subconscious is easily programmed with repetitive medianarrative. Since the subconscious drives conscious thought and ultimatelyactions, we need to understand our own mind brain function in order tosafeguard our free thought!2020 perpeTraitors went all in with mind control masked as a virus whileelections were blatantly stolen In front of all of us. How many times did youhear “mask up” “social distance” “get the injection” while your consciousmind was distracted by images of tickertapes of death numbers or violenceagainst MAGA supporters and burning of their livelihoods the media termed‘peaceful demonstrations'.People providing evidence that elections were stolen were arrested andslandered by the media, while perpeTraitors who stole elections re-openedborders to their funding mechanism of drug and human trafficking.Remember the memes of Epstein with an “I voted” sticker despite his being‘suicided'? Remember when Epstein and Fauci were deemed criminalsbefore media twisted focus and blame away from them?TDS had undermind people's subconscious so effectively that all it takes ismedia's repetitive narrative to point the finger away from perpeTraitors andtruth. This is exactly what global perpeTraitors need to keep their NewWorld Order from unraveling. Once the human mind falls prey to MK Ultrameans, suggestibility stays heightened and subconscious program feedsthoughts and actions.Remember how unmasked free thinkers tried to tell fearful programmedpeople to take off their masks or not get the jab? They could not hear pastprogram screaming in their ears regardless of how loud logic was shared.Our subconscious has no capacity for logic, reason, question, or criticalanalysis of information without a conscious mind filter. Trauma and fearare the basis of mind control because it renders our subconscious wideopen to manipulation through repetitive narrative or the language of thesubconscious NLP neuro linguistic programing.Once the subconscious is bared, it will take in any information as fact-likeviolence in our streets was peaceful demnstrations. In today'skaleidoscope of change, this creates confusion and lack of discernment oftruth. The most powerful form of MK Ultra mind control I have ever seenunleashed on the global population is not mind control masked as a virus.Mistakes were made with sheltering at home that ultimately woke up morepeople.The most damaging mass mind control I have seen in my lifetime is TDS.Truth Derangement Syndrome. Because if you know the truth, you will stopcomplying with a slave society agenda intended to undermind our humanityto align us with DARPA generated AI. PerpeTraitors, their New World OrderAgenda 2030, their funding mechanism of child sex trafficking that hasbecome one of the most lucrative businesses on the planet and likely all ofhuman history, and their means of creating compliance through MK Ultramind control all dissipate in light of Truth. Truth really does make us free.Our current duly elected President, like John F. Kennedy, purposefullyexposed the CIA, its shadowy Deep State, and its dark MK Ultra mindcontrol agenda. One President was assassinated for it on national tv whilethe other was assassinated in character by repetitive media narrative. Youwitnessed it. Now consciously deprogram the trauma because both formsof assassination have given perpeTraitors control over the minds of thepeople as planned.Use pen and paper to write out your fear, trauma, hate, rage or whateverinhibits your ability to think beyond what you are told. Deprogram yourimposed TDS, expand your perceptions and think free.

Feds For Freedom Releases Adirim Deposition, Calls for Congressional Subpoena and Full DoW Records > > Read full press release here: https://www.fedsforfreedom.org/adirimTerry Adirim, MD, then acting Assistant Secretary of Defense for Health Affairs, signed a memo on Sept. 14, 2021, stating that the Pfizer BioNTech EUA shot was interchangeable with the FDA approved Comirnaty. But they were legally distinct- one carries a right of refusal, the other doesn't.After her time at the DOD and Veterans Affairs, Adirim worked at the CIA and was promptly fired in Spring 2025, once President Trump took office. She turned around and sued Ivan Raiklin for defamation (and CIA Dir. Ratcliffe for firing her, claim now dropped), claiming he was the reason she was fired. Feds For Freedom is supporting the defense in the lawsuit Terry Adirim v CIA et al.Ivan Raiklin, constitutional attorney, and Kevin McAfee, president of Feds For Freedom join us to discuss Adirim's memo and what she revealed in her August 2026 deposition as to how she determined these shots were safe for 2 million servicemembers.

It's not waiting for freedom to be granted to you. It's not asking for rights to be given, it's not even reclaiming your rights- as they're yours and they've been yours along- you just need to never let go of your God-given rights. Owning freedom is taking responsibility for your rights and living them out in all facets of life. On this podcast, we interview people who have taken ownership of their freedoms and as a result have made incredible change, whether it be at the federal, state, local levels, or in the home. It's a way of living. Own Your Freedom. It's that simple.

Luciano Arruda, president of the International Remote Viewing Association (IRVA), has been collecting information through remote viewing and psychic abilities since 1989. He shares the incredible story of President Jimmy Carter witnessing something that proved remote viewing works: psychic abilities finding a missing plane. Remote viewing is a structured protocol that allows people to access information that is non-local and not attached to time and space without knowing what the target is. Luciano has experienced remarkable precognition throughout his life. He anticipates what people will say seconds before they speak, hears future events like a blue car pulling out of a parking lot three seconds before it happens, and accesses information through meditation that most people miss. He explains why remote viewing matters more than general psychic abilities: it's structured, allows you to work with groups, and keeps practitioners humble by showing them where they're wrong so they can learn. He discusses government remote viewing programs, how remote viewing differs from ESP and clairvoyance, and why the CIA used this technique. He shares specific examples of remote viewing sessions that provided accurate information about targets people never knew beforehand. Luciano emphasizes that anyone can learn remote viewing. It's like learning violin. Some will excel; others will stay at beginner level. But everyone can improve their intuition and decision-making. He invites people to practice free through IRVA's website and attend their annual conference.

There is a focus method so effective, and psychologically dangerous, that the military literally banned soldiers from using it in the 1980s. Productive mindset habits built on declassified military science: the Gateway Process was so psychologically powerful that the CIA classified it and the Army banned it, yet now it's reshaping how millions approach focus. In this episode, Tracy explores the 1983 Fort Meade document that described consciousness technology deemed "too dangerous" for elite soldiers, and reveals why this Cold War-era technique is resurfacing as the antidote to modern focus failure. Discover what military psychologists learned about mindset success that corporate productivity gurus still don't teach.https://YourSuccessDNA.comSponsor: https://SomeUnapprovedThinking.com The CIA classified it. The US military banned it. Now it's going viral on TikTok. A 29-page document delivered to Fort Meade in 1983 described a system so psychologically powerful that the Army concluded it was too dangerous for its own elite soldiers, and yet the Gateway Process has resurfaced decades later, captivating millions who have no idea they're experimenting with Cold War-era consciousness technology. This is one of the most extraordinary hidden chapters in modern military and intelligence history. The Gateway Process was born from Cold War paranoia, built on obscure audio science dating back to 1839, and tested on soldiers who called themselves Jedi Knights, operatives trained to literally transcend the boundaries of time and space. At the center of it all is Robert Monroe, a radio executive who couldn't sleep and accidentally stumbled onto a method for hacking human consciousness. In Episode 218, we break down the full declassified story: what the document actually says, why the program was shelved, and why experts are alarmed that a technique deemed too dangerous for trained military personnel is now being practiced by teenagers with earbuds. 00:00 CIA Report01:11 Monroe Origins02:15 Hemi Sync Explained03:46 Cold War Psychic Race05:00 Jedi Knights Results05:47 Remote Viewing Cases07:00 Why It Ended08:24 TikTok Revival Risks09:01 Pomodoro Versus Gateway11:27 Teen Brain Vulnerability12:12 Still Not Illegal13:00 Beware Shortcut Seduction14:01 Whiskered Wisdom15:42 Final Takeaway #GatewayProcess #CIADocuments #ConsciousnessHacking #MindControl #Declassified #ColdWarSecrets #BiauralBeats #MilitarySecrets #RobertMonroe #ForbiddenTechnology #CognitivEnhancement #TikTokTrends #HiddenHistory #BlackOps #PsychologicalWarfare Gateway Process, US military, banned technique, consciousness experiment, Robert Monroe, binaural beats, psychological operations, Gateway Process explained, illegal focus technique, mindset habits, productive mindset habits, focus productivity habits, mindset success, habits for success, entrepreneur mindset, success mindset, business tips, self help, Manifestation, growth mindset, self improvement mindset, peak productivity, growth mindset, self improvement, personal development, success habits, startup grind, habit mastery, mindset hack, productivity tips, business mindset, business motivation, entrepreneur motivation, personal growth, mental health, self improvement habits, mindset success, success mindset habits, mindset mastery, success habits Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

In this Wednesday Q&A episode of The Wright Report, Bryan answers listener questions on newly released documents that raise fresh doubts about the official story behind Thomas Crooks and the attempted assassination of President Trump. Bryan covers why he believes the CIA is still hiding key details about 9/11, former CIA Director John Brennan's upcoming grand jury testimony, and confirmation from the Air Force that the US has used space based weapons offensively, tracing back to the mysterious destruction of a Chinese spy satellite tied to a deadly attack on US troops.

We have two epics for you today!Starting off, we head to Philadelphia where a routine police interaction has drastically escalated and turned into a gruesome discovery of missing women, identity forgery, drugs, violent pornography with mob connections and what appears to be a snuff film operation. This story is a wild one so buckle up because this is only the beginning!Next we shift gears, starting at the timestamp 03:17:05 and head into the past in order to catch up with a man's name that you should be familiar with, but if you're not, you will be after today. Frank Olsen, a talented scientist who developed biological weapons for the US military to use in the Korean War, was also tasked with developing and overseeing the Mk Ultra chemical agents and drug testing, was not only partially responsible for its development, but Frank also became one of the many victims of this secret operation in mind control and behavior modification.The CIA claims his death was the result of developing a major depressive disorder and he committed suicide by jumping out of his hotel window. But is that what actually happened? Mini people reject the CIA‘s official account and believe foul play is responsible. One of those people includes Frank Olsen‘s own son, who has dedicated a massive portion of his life trying to prove his father was murdered. We will uncover shocking truths behind MKULTRA and its still hidden dark secrets, including the blurred lines between neuroscience, mental health, free will and altered consciousness.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/cult-of-conspiracy--5700337/support.

Glenn Wiggle and Mike Hoeflich open with Glenn's experiment in building a stable of Grok-powered bots to handle his nutrition, radio prep, inbox, and stock research, then turn to the growing push to regulate artificial intelligence. Glenn argues that anti-data-center campaigns are propaganda, walks through how cooling systems actually work, and reads at length from a David Sacks post accusing Anthropic and OpenAI of seeking regulatory capture rather than genuine safety. From there the hosts cover Canada's retaliatory tariffs and Mark Carney's political incentives, the crime statistics out of the Memphis task force and why they think Democrat mayors resist federal help, and Glenn's change of heart on Citizens United after watching corporate money reshape agencies like the FDA. They close on Mamdani's remarks days after the 9/11 anniversary, the lack of a Republican platform heading into the midterms, and this weekend's Buffalo Cigar Fest benefiting Wings of Hope.00:00:24 Glenn's AI bot lineup00:03:27 Data centers, water, and the power grid00:08:19 Who benefits from AI regulation00:14:43 Canada's tariffs and Carney's calculation00:17:12 USAID, the CIA, and regime change00:23:18 Memphis crime stats and resistant mayors00:26:52 David Sacks: pace your own frontier00:33:51 Rethinking Citizens United00:38:39 Mamdani after the 9/11 anniversary00:43:08 Midterms and the missing GOP platform

Episode 4226 │ September 15, 2026 Hormuz closed in February. The overland bypass closed September 12. The Red Sea closed the day before. All three exits. Not random. WHAT THIS EPISODE COVERS Scott Kesterson delivers a two-day research build tracing the September 2026 closure of every crude export route out of the Persian Gulf — the Saudi Petroline bypass disabled by an unclaimed drone strike, the Bab al-Mandeb Strait seized by Houthi forces within the same 48-hour window, and the Strait of Hormuz already closed since February — back to their actual origin: the 632 AD succession dispute that split Islam into Sunni and Shia, and a geographic accident in which nearly every major oil field in the region sits beneath Shia or Shia-aligned populations that have rarely held power in the states extracting that oil. Scott traces the line from Britain's 1953 removal of Iran's elected prime minister through the Shah's CIA-trained secret police, the 1979 revolution, and America's 2003 invasion of Iraq — which inadvertently installed a Shia-majority government next door to Iran — to explain how Iran's mosaic defense strategy, 31 autonomous provincial commands designed to survive a decapitation strike, now operates less like a chain of command and more like a fire ant colony, coordinating without central orders and unifying Sunni and Shia populations against a shared adversary for the first time in fourteen centuries. The episode closes with Scott's direct assessment that this war was never necessary, was justified by unproven nuclear claims, and that the growing regional unity now forming is a consequence America built rather than one it is fighting. KEY QUESTIONS ADDRESSED What actually happened in the Persian Gulf during the second week of September 2026 — and why does the simultaneous closure of the Strait of Hormuz, the Saudi overland pipeline bypass, and the Bab al-Mandeb Strait represent a coordinated effect rather than three isolated incidents, even with no single group claiming responsibility? What is Iran's mosaic defense strategy, and why does Scott's fire ant colony analogy explain how 31 autonomous provincial commands can act in unified purpose without receiving direct orders — and why does he argue this makes the Ayatollah's decapitation strike a strategic failure rather than a victory? How did Britain's 1953 removal of Iran's elected government, the Shah's CIA-trained secret police, and America's 2003 invasion of Iraq combine to produce the exact regional alignment now unifying Sunni and Shia populations against the West — and why does Scott argue the current conflict was never necessary in the first place?

It's a dark moment in American history that leads to a lot of what-ifs. By the spring of 1963, eight years into the Vietnam War, two opposing factions across the CIA and the State Department had President John F. Kennedy's ear. One side wanted to keep South Vietnam's first president, Ngô Đình Diệm, in power. The other wanted to see him removed. Then, unrest in Saigon caught the CIA by surprise, and the rift in Washington grew deeper. Author Jack Cheevers spent a decade piecing together and writing Kennedy's Coup, which lays out the grave decision to oust Diem, a move that led to his death and, arguably, escalated the war. The first U.S. combat troops deployed two years later.

www.patreon.com/theconspiracypodcastPart 4 of the 9/11 Series, this episode turns to the Pentagon, the hijackers themselves, and Osama bin Laden — three of the most examined and most disputed threads connected to September 11th.Hosts Eric , Sean , and Jorge begin with the official record on American Airlines Flight 77: the impact at 9:37 AM, the recovered flight data and cockpit voice recorders, and the DNA identification of everyone aboard. They then work through the specific questions that have followed the Pentagon attack for twenty-five years — the limited wreckage visible in early photographs, the size of the entry hole, the small number of security camera frames ever released, and Donald Rumsfeld's September 10th statement about $2.3 trillion in untracked Pentagon transactions.From there turn to the 19 hijackers themselves: how they were identified within days through passenger manifests and financial records, the intact passport recovered near the World Trade Center, reports that some hijackers were later identified alive by family members overseas, and the flying ability of Hani Hanjour, the pilot accused of executing the Pentagon's final approach.The episode closes on Osama bin Laden — his fatwas against the United States, his ties to the 1998 embassy bombings and the USS Cole, his connection to the CIA-backed mujahideen of the Soviet-Afghan War, and his own shifting public statements about September 11th in the years that followed.New episodes of "9/11: Unanswered," The Conspiracy Podcast's series marking the 25th anniversary of September 11th, release every Tuesday through September 28th.

Dave Rubin of "The Rubin Report" gives a first look at the stories you need to know to start your day, including federal subpoenas reportedly seeking six years of records involving California Gov. Gavin Newsom's privately funded travel, personal expenses, donors, and the California State Protocol Foundation—requests that do not by themselves indicate that anyone named is suspected of wrongdoing; the CIA releasing 71 formerly classified presidential intelligence products showing repeated but often imprecise warnings about Osama bin Laden and al-Qaeda before the September 11 attacks, including the possibility of an explosive-packed airplane striking an American city; and President Donald Trump and House Speaker Mike Johnson arguing that overly restrictive artificial-intelligence rules could undermine America's technological position against China as industry leaders demand stronger safeguards; and much more. #rubinreport #gavinnewsom #doj #september11 #cia #billclinton #georgewbush #ai #daverubin

Local police departments use Flock cameras to track license plates. ICE uses Palantir software to track and round up immigrants. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth's war department uses Claude to bomb Iran. The U.S. government spends billions employing private corporations to obtain mountains of data — and the surveillance space is only getting more privatized in Donald Trump's second term. “It really has become a Wild West,” 404 Media co-founder Jason Koebler tells host Akela Lacy on The Intercept Briefing, on the state of the U.S. surveillance apparatus today. While Palantir and Flock have become household names, Koebler says, “anything that can be surveilled is being surveilled, and a lot of this is happening from companies that very few people have heard of, and companies that are willing to push the envelope on what they're willing to do, like how far they're willing to go to surveil people."“A lot of the stuff that you used to associate with the NSA or CIA or another state spy agency, those kinds of capabilities you can now just buy,” Intercept senior technology reporter Sam Biddle notes of the ease and accessibility of the tools now available to the government. “You don't need to be a top-secret government agency. You can just be a contractor in Virginia.”“It's a way to sidestep warrant requirements,” says Koebler. Surveillance contractors “are doing things that if the government were doing directly, they would need to get a warrant in order to do it.”This week, for a special recording of the podcast, independent tech outlet 404 Media and The Intercept teamed up in front of a live audience in Los Angeles to discuss how the U.S. government weaponizes private data to surveil and kill abroad and at home, the resulting backlash and potential regulations on the table, what tangible actions the average person can take to “divest from the contemporary surveillance hellscape,” and refocusing AI-ending-humanity doomerism.“When you ascribe motives and agency to AI, you're letting Sam Altman off the hook,” says Biddle. “There are human beings building this technology. It's not inevitable. This doomsday future is not inevitable,” adds Koebler. “We can't bury our heads in the sand and say, ‘This is not changing society in some way.' But it is being driven by very rich humans, and they can be regulated. They can be held to account.”“What's been really interesting about the Flock backlash, and heartening, is that it is completely apolitical, or it's nonpartisan. It is completely — from the deepest red to the people in this room right now — the entire political spectrum hates these,” says Biddle. “There's the real potential for the first time in a while to create a pro-privacy coalition that bridges a lot of the otherwise pretty giant political gaps.”Full transcript: https://interc.pt/4hqwQrKKeep our investigations free and fearless at theintercept.com/join.

James Talarico thought he had Ken Paxton in a box. After GOP Railroad Commission of Texas nominee Bo French posted a photo from the UT student section and said the problem in Texas is “far worse than anyone imagined,” Talarico quoted John Cornyn and went straight at Paxton: Condemn this “blatant racism,” or “cower to extremists.” Paxton didn't take the bait. He condemned racism — then pointed at Talarico's own record. White men as America's top terror threat. Praying to overcome his own “whiteness.” The substance underneath it is the part polite Texas will not say out loud: Generations of Texans poured money into UT, H-1B pressure at public universities is a live fight, Abbott already told state campuses to pause new H-1Bs, and a lot of families believe Texas kids are losing ground at the school their taxes built. You can argue about the photo. You cannot pretend the enrollment fight is a hallucination. Pat also covered: CIA and 9/11: Did the agency have a shot to stop it — and miss? Abbott and Paxton: Is the Texas GOP about to give the state away? An anti-Israel film called “Naza” gets a 25-minute standing ovation. Talarico walks Matthew 25 like a campaign sermon. BYU wins, and college football is finally back. Was Talarico asking a moral question, or running a campaign ambush? Have you watched Texas change and been told you're not allowed to notice?

Today's Headlines: Trump skipped the 9/11 memorial ceremony in New York to fall asleep at the Pentagon's 9/11 ceremony. He then flew to Ireland where the Irish president seated him behind a notably small desk, protests featured an inflatable Trump being inflatable-Netanyahu'd in the streets, and he called Irish reunification "fantastic" and "a cool thing," breaking 28 years of official US neutrality on an issue that has historically caused quite a bit of conflict. This landed at an awkward moment given that Northern Ireland, Wales, and Scotland are meeting today to discuss potentially dissolving the United Kingdom entirely. Trump also lunged at ABC reporter Rachel Scott when she asked about his $5,000 check promise and pointed out the national debt is $40 trillion, the White House called journalist Aaron Rupar a "sick, deluded freak" for noting Natalie Harp was in Ireland, and Trump blamed Zelensky for global energy prices and told him to stop hitting Russian diesel. It was quite the weekend for the President. While we're on that, a Russian drone strike near the Polish border may have targeted a train carrying Boris Johnson and David Petraeus, prompting air raid warnings in Poland. In other news, An American diplomat accused of possessing child sex abuse material was quietly flown out of London on a secret military flight before police could question him. France expanded its Epstein investigation, identifying 13 new potential victims and multiple potential recruiters, one of whom was found dead in his home right before he was set to be questioned. On AI, Sam Altman, Elon Musk, and Dario Amodei all posted this weekend calling for AI regulation and a slowdown — simultaneously — very sketchy. And finally, ectopic pregnancy deaths have nearly doubled since the pandemic and increased even more in states with abortion bans, and Texas responded by simply deciding not to analyze maternal mortality data from 2022 and 2023 — the years the abortion ban went into effect — making it impossible to measure its impact.

1900 KABULTragic Abbey Gate Bombing Ends WithdrawalJerry Dunleavy and James Hasson, Part Two: US Marines and 82nd Airborne soldiers manage overwhelming, hazardous crowds at Hamid Karzai International Airport's perimeter gates. State Department delays and shifting visa guidelines create immense confusion, prompting the CIA to utilize Afghan National Strike Units (NSU) to secure the airfield. On August 26, 2021, freed ISIS-K terrorist Abdul Rahman al-Logari detonates a suicide bomb at Abbey Gate, despite Marine snipers previously spotting a suspect matching intelligence descriptions. The tragic blast kills 13 USservice members and roughly 170 Afghan civilians, concluding a turbulent withdrawal marked by significant intelligence warnings and procedural failures. (2)

September 11th presented a new kind of national security threat, so a new national security architecture was built to confront it. Has it worked? Are we safer? This special episode from Sources & Methods, the national security podcast from NPR, host Mary Louise Kelly and former top intelligence officials discuss what happened behind closed doors on 9/11, and how the events of that day are still shaping global events. Those officials were Stephen Hadley, Jane Harman, John Mclaughlin and Michael Morell. At the time of the attacks, Hadley was serving as deputy national security adviser in the Bush White House. Harman was a Democratic member of Congress representing California. McLaughlin was deputy director of the Central Intelligence Agency. Morell was also at the CIA and was President Bush's CIA briefer that very day.This episode was recorded in front of a studio audience at NPR headquarters in Washington D.C. on September 9. Support public media with NPR+ and enjoy perks for over 25 podcasts like this one.
