June 20, 1993: The Philadelphia Experiment - Al Bielek

A sequel-style account of the alleged Montauk Project, discussing secret military research, mind control, time travel, and paranormal phenomena.

A paranormal investigation of the alleged Philadelphia Experiment, UFO conspiracies, secret government projects, and claims involving time travel and advanced technology.

John Coleman’s book presents the “Committee of 300” as a hidden governing network behind major international institutions and historical events. It links banking, intelligence, diplomacy, media, and propaganda within a broad conspiratorial framework. Philo Smith cites it cautiously while discussing claims about Bernays and Wellington House. He explicitly notes that the specific allegation was not directly corroborated from a primary source. The book is therefore used in the episode as a controversial secondary source rather than definitive evidence.

George Harry Stein's 'Mind Machines You Can Build' is a hands-on book presenting circuits, devices, and simple experiments designed to investigate altered states, perception, and mind-body interactions. The book mixes technical instruction with descriptions of proto-scientific demonstrations meant for amateur experimenters interested in consciousness technologies. Stein offers schematics for building light and sound devices and suggests protocols intended to elicit measurable psychophysiological responses. While some claims are anecdotal and border on the speculative, the book has been influential among hobbyists exploring biofeedback and sensory entrainment. It occupies a niche at the intersection of DIY electronics, parapsychology, and experiential exercises.
