Remote Viewing

About this episode

This episode explores the history and implications of Remote Viewing, a psychic protocol funded by the US government.

Did an administrative assistant really pinpoint the exact coordinate location of a downed Soviet bomber lost in a dense African jungle using nothing but a map and a pen? This week we're covering the incredible history of Remote Viewing, a highly structured psychic protocol that the US government spent decades—and millions of dollars—funding. How did Jurassic Park author Michael Crichton use psychic grid-mapping to locate a 19th-century shipwreck on his very first dive? We explore the Cold War's wildest "Eight Martini Results," debate whether the human mind is just a radio antenna picking up signals across space and time, and question if we're all cheating ourselves out of finding hidden treasure.
