What We Built... And What We Buried: Episode Eleven - The Mind We Tried To Break

from The Devil Within · host EVIO Creative

🎧 THE DEVIL WITHIN What We Built… And What We Buried Episode 11: The Mind We Tried to Break What happens when the most private space we have—the human mind—becomes the target of experimentation? In Episode 11, we examine Project MKUltra, a classified U.S. government program designed to explore the limits of human consciousness, behavior, and control. Born out of Cold War paranoia, MKUltra pushed beyond ethical boundaries in pursuit of one question: Can the mind be broken… and rebuilt? Through a network of secret experiments, subjects—many of them unaware—were exposed to LSD, sensory deprivation, psychological stress, and other destabilizing techniques. Records were destroyed. Oversight was limited. And what remains is only a fragment of the full story. This episode explores: • The Cold War fear that sparked MKUltra • The methods used to alter perception and behavior • The role of consent—and the absence of it • The deliberate destruction of records in the 1970s • What we know… and what may never be known Because the true horror of MKUltra isn’t just what was done— It’s that it was justified. 🎧 Listen & Follow Follow The Devil Within wherever you get your podcasts. 📺 Watch & Subscribe Full episodes on YouTube: Evio Creative 📲 Follow Instagram / TikTok / Facebook: @thedevilwithinpod 📩 Contact [email protected] Learn more about your ad choices.
