Hey there, I've got something a little different for you today.

I've been listening to this new podcast called Redacted Declassified Mysteries lately,

and it's blowing my mind.

The host, Luke Lamanagh, has this incredible knack for uncovering these wild, little-known stories from history.

Like, did you know the US government secretly brought over former Nazi scientists after World War II

to help

advance military technology? Or that in the 1950s, the army conducted a hush-hush biological

experiment by releasing bacteria over San Francisco without ever telling the public? These aren't

just conspiracy theories. They're real, documented cases that were buried in classified vials for decades.

Each week, Luke pulls back the curtain on stuff like covert experiments, secret operations,

and unsettling connections that have had a huge impact on the world.

It's the kind of stuff that makes you go,

how have I never heard about this before?

I just listened to an upcoming episode and it's absolutely fascinating.

Luke has this way of digging into these hidden truths and bringing them to light in a really engaging way.

If you're really into that deep dive, shadowy side of history, I can't recommend redacted declassified mysteries enough.

I'm about to play you a clip from Redacted declassified mysteries with Luke Lamana.
