Stuff They Don't Want You To Know - The Philadelphia Experiment

Here's the story: In October of 1943, hundreds of people watched a top secret experiment go horribly wrong.

It's a thrilling tale, but how much of it is true? Tune in as the guys explore the origin of this bizarre legend (and bust some myths about cream cheese along the way).

News flash: opinions change, and consensus is nearer.  One can only wish the Senate had similarly open minds.
