36: Project: STARGATE. The CIA, Mars and... Time Travel.
PROJECT STARGATE: CIA, PSYCHICS, MARS AND ... TIME TRAVEL When the first human visits Mars, it will be the biggest scientific breakthrough since landing on the Moon. Probably bigger. But what if I told you the CIA and United States Military have already been to Mars? But they didn't use space-ships to get there. They used psychics. Let's find out why. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/thewhyfiles/support

35: The Thing Embassy Incident: How Russian children and the KGB trolled America for years
FOR SEVEN YEARS, SOVIET AGENTS SPIED ON THE AMERICAN EMBASSY UNDETECTED In 1945, Soviet children presented the ambassador with a gift to commemorate the friendship of the US and the Soviet Union. A hand-carved wooden replica of the Great Seal of the United States. The ambassador was so pleased with the carving that he hung it in his office at the official ambassador residence in Moscow: the Spaso house. But the wooden carving was more than just a decoration. Now hanging on the wall, just behind the ambassador's desk was a state of the art, high-frequency listening device that was completely undetectable. The intelligence community called the device "The Thing". And The Thing was on the office wall of five different ambassadors over 7 years. This was an electronic listening device that -- didn't require electricity. Let's find out why. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/thewhyfiles/support

33: When will we upload our consciousness to the cloud?
When will we upload our consciousness to the cloud? As long as people have been alive, they've wanted to stay alive. For centuries, explorers have searched for the fountain of youth. And today, scientists are hard at work researching technology that can extend the human lifespan, stop or reverse aging; and even preserve a terminally ill person indefinitely, until a cure for their disease is discovered. But what if -- instead of preserving our *bodies* -- we could preserve our *consciousness*; by uploading it to a powerful computer. This is called *mind uploading*. And one startup has developed a procedure to do exactly this. It's scientifically sound, there's a waiting list to participate, and the procedure -- is one hundred percent fatal. Let's find out why. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/thewhyfiles/support

34: How Long Can Humans Live Without Their Head?
HOW LONG DO ANIMALS (and people) SURVIVE WITHOUT THEIR HEADS? Does a human head remain conscious after being separated from its body? It sure does. But just how long do you actually survive? Not that long. But, if we look at other animals, some of them can survive for longer than you think.

31: The Latitude Society - Game, Business, or Cult? (Yes.)
THE LATITUDE. How do you join a cult without knowing it? Here's how it happened to thousands of people in San Francisco just a few years ago. You're with a trusted friend; maybe on a hike, or sitting in a bar or just hanging out. Out of nowhere, your friend asks you: "Can you keep a secret?" Of course you reply that you can. Your friend hands you a small black sleeve, about the size of a credit card. On one side of the sleeve is a geometric pattern. On the other side, the words "Absolute Discretion". Inside is a security card. Printed with a website and a code. Later that night, you go to the site and enter the code. The website responds with: "Congratulations. You've been invited to the Latitude." What happens next, changes you forever. Let's find out why. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/thewhyfiles/support

30: The Phantom Time Hypothesis -- The Middle Ages Never Happened
According to a German historian, the year is actually 1724. He says our calendar is a lie and a big chunk of the Middle Ages never happened. Which says that back in 1000 AD, there was a conspiracy between the church and the Holy Roman emperor to change the calendar. The years 614 through 911 were completely made up. Those 300 years just didn't happen. So all that history you learned about Charlemagne and the middle ages. Completely fabricated. In fact, the theory says that Charlemagne was specifically designed as propaganda to support the calendar change. To give the emperor and the pope more power. Sounds crazy? Well, there may proof.

29: Tesla's technology to talk to spirits of the dead
GHOST PHONE vs SPIRIT RADIO. Edison versus Tesla. One of history's greatest rivalries. They would never admit it but as different as these men were, they also had many similarities. For instance, they also both dabbled in paranormal technology. Nikola Tesla was convinced he could invent a device to communicate with the spirit world. And Thomas Edison was convinced he could get there first. Let's find out why. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/thewhyfiles/support
