Episode: Montauk: The Conspiracy Theory That Inspired Better Fiction
Description: Let's explore the bizarre world of the Montauk Project, where recovered memories meet Cold War paranoia to create one of America's wildest conspiracy theories. We explore how a decommissioned military base somehow became ground zero for alleged government experiments in mind control, time travel, and alien contact.

And for no reason a disturbing tangent about lab-grown brains that will haunt your dreams.Get new episodes early and support the show on Patreon and Neb...
