Loved the show.. so happy to have found you on Jimmy Dore and get a potpourri of voices that would never hit my radar... as an old timer, muckraker and stickler for accuracy.. Ian's MKULTRA era attribution for Tin Foil Hat is incorrect though much futurist scifi story lines are entwined just as Hollywood - CIA partner in an evolved media age.
Entomology for "tin foil hat" has some who theorize Mason origins but first print reference for tin foil hat protection from mind was mentioned is 1927 scifi story by Julian Huxley... "The Tissue-Culture King" story of a biologist captured by an African tribe who discovers "caps of metal foil" block telepathy.
