About this episode

The episode investigates the mystery of Havana Syndrome and its implications for US diplomats and CIA agents.

This week we’re investigating the unsettling mystery of Havana Syndrome, the series of “Anomalous Health Incidents” that have plagued US diplomats and CIA agents around the globe. Is it a clandestine Russian microwave weapon that can fit in a backpack? We explore the history of the Moscow Signal, the terrifying potential of “voice to skull” technology, and why Laura Bush might have been an early target. Hosted on Acast.
