In this episode with talk with Jan Irvin about his ground research found in his article, Manufacturing the Deadhead: A product of social engineering, he co-authored Joe Atwill. We discuss MK-ULTRA, Gordon Wasson and his CIA sponsorship.

***Note*** After the interview I talked with my mother, and she cleared up my misconception about my grandmother’s role in the “Century Club.” She was not part of the Uber elite club, but rather the Texas Century Club ( http://texascenturyclub.org ). which I mistakenly thought had a loose affiliation.
