In this episode I tell you the strange history of the drug LSD, from it's origins involving a deadly fungus that may have caused a bizarre dancing plague in 1518, all the way up until the CIA began experimenting with it in their top secret program known as Project MK-Ultra. Did the CIA really murder one of its own scientists? And how does the man's death tie into a bizarre outbreak of mass hallucinations in a tiny French village.\n\n\nNotes:\n\n\nhttp://freemusicarchive.org/music/Chris_Zabriskie/\n\n\nhttps://www.timesofisrael.com/was-scientist-frank-olsons-death-an-lsd-induced-suicide-or-cia-cover-up/\n\n\nhttps://www.vanityfair.com/hollywood/2017/12/errol-morris-wormwood-netflix-interview\n\n\nhttps://www.bbc.com/news/world-10996838\n\n\nhttp://www.botany.hawaii.edu/faculty/wong/BOT135/LECT12.HTM\n\n\nhttps://www.history.com/news/what-was-the-dancing-plague-of-1518\n\n\nMusic:\n\n\nDexter Britain, The Tea Party\n\n\nhttp://freemusicarchive.org/music/Dexter_Britain/\n\n\nChris Zabriskie, I Need to Start Writing Things Down, John Stockton Slow Drag, There's Probably No Time, Undercover Vampire Policeman, I Am a Man Who Will Fight For Your Honor\n\n\nhttp://freemusicarchive.org/music/Chris_Zabriskie/\nLearn more about your ad choices.
