## Resource

Pink Beam from the Black Iron Prison : The Life and Death of Philip K. Dick On today's show Author Philip K. Dick, we’re talking life, death, the 1971 break-in that screams cover-up, VALIS the Vast Active Living Intelligence System, an 8,000-page Exegesis journal the feds probably still have eyes on, MK-ULTRA mind control shadows, FBI letters accusing everyone from neo-Nazis to communist sci-fi plants, and a death that came way too conveniently after he started connecting all the dots.
