Summary
The Anchormen dig into one of the darkest chapters in U.S. intelligence history: the CIA’s MK-Ultra program — where Americans were allegedly abducted, drugged with LSD, psychologically tortured, and used as human guinea pigs in the pursuit of mind control.

And the biggest question of all: did MK-Ultra ever really end?
