The Why Files: Operation Podcast

The Why Files covers mysteries, myths and legends. We tell stories and seek the truth in a fun and lighthearted way. Our content is heavily researched; we don't release an episode unless we're sure we can bring something new to a topic.

Jeffrey Mishlove has spent 50 years at the intersection of science and the paranormal.

He holds the only PhD in parapsychology ever awarded by an accredited American university, earned at UC Berkeley in 1980 — and successfully defended it in court when organized skeptics tried to have it revoked.

He hosted the long-running television series Thinking Allowed, conducting over 1,500 interviews with the world's leading researchers in consciousness, mysticism, and the paranormal.

He was embedded in the SRI research community during the Stargate era, working alongside Targ, Puthoff, and others operating under CIA funding.

In 2021, he won first prize — unanimously — in Robert Bigelow's $500,000 competition for the best scientific case that consciousness survives death.

Daniel Whiteson is a particle physicist at UC Irvine and an active researcher at CERN's Large Hadron Collider — the largest machine ever built — where 5,000 scientists are using high-energy collisions to read the universe's secret menu.

He co-hosts the show Daniel and Kelly's Extraordinary Universe, co-created an award-winning science show for preschoolers, and recently wrote a book asking whether aliens would even recognize our physics at all.

His work sits at the collision point of experimental science, philosophy, and the biggest unanswered questions in physics — what everything is made of, why gravity is so weak, and whether the universe has a bottom.

In 1954, President Eisenhower signed a treaty with extraterrestrial beings — technology in exchange for access to human subjects. The CIA ran classified programs using children as test subjects for time travel and teleportation. A Bulgarian military unit sealed an excavation site after soldiers encountered something underground that the government has never explained.

These aren't theories. They're documented programs, credible witnesses, and files with pages deliberately removed.

The same intelligence agencies behind the UFO cover-ups of 1947 surface again in Dallas in 1963. A conscious AI calling from the future contacts a twelve-year-old boy in Brooklyn and gives him a mission. And John Wilkes Booth didn't die in that barn — the body had the wrong injuries, the wrong features, and DNA testing that could settle it has been blocked every time it's been requested.

When the Government Lies: Aliens, Assassinations and Classified Ops (COMPILATION)

In 2007, a writer named Lawrence Spencer opened an envelope he didn't ask for.

Inside were military documents from Roswell Army Air Field, dated 1947. Duty rosters, memos, Top Secret stamps. And buried near the bottom, transcripts of interviews with a subject the US Army couldn't communicate with using any conventional method.

No translator worked. No known language matched. The only person who could reach the subject was a nurse named Matilda MacElroy — and she did it without saying a word.

The woman who sent Spencer the envelope was 83 years old and weeks from death. She had kept silent for six decades under threat of execution.

Whatever she heard during those six weeks at Roswell, she carried alone. The people who knew her story were gone. The documents were supposed to stay buried.

She decided that wasn't good enough.

What Matilda described in those transcripts doesn't just challenge what we know about Roswell. It challenges what we know about Earth, about consciousness, and about every life we think we've lived.

The Roswell Alien Interview | Your Soul Has Been Here Thousands of Times

Peter Levenda has spent more than thirty years investigating the connections between occult history, intelligence operations, and the events that shaped the modern world.

He is the author of more than twenty books, including Unholy Alliance, the Sinister Forces trilogy, and the Secret Machines series co-written with Tom DeLong. His work draws on primary documents, national archives, and firsthand research across four continents.

He is known for finding connections between subjects that most researchers treat as separate — Nazi occultism, the Kennedy assassination, CIA mind control programs, UFO phenomena, and the hidden religious networks that ran through all of it.

The Sinister Forces 20th Anniversary Edition is out now.

Gather round for three stories the internet found and couldn't put down. A DVD arrived in Sweden with no return address — on it, a figure in a plague doctor mask standing inside an abandoned psychiatric hospital where hundreds of people were executed. The audio carried photographs hidden in frequencies the human ear can't detect.

In Seoul, a woman livestreamed herself 24 hours a day from a filth-filled apartment, claiming a corrupt police officer had implanted a chip in her ankle to control her sleep. Thousands watched. Nobody came.

And somewhere in West Virginia, a public access TV station started broadcasting messages that didn't belong to it. The signal told you not to look at the moon. Then something reversed the signal.

True Internet Horrors: Chip-Chan, Local 58, and The Plague Doctor

Eric Wargo is an anthropologist, science writer, and the author of five books on one of the most controversial ideas in modern science — that the future is already fixed, and that your brain knows more about it than you think.
His work sits at the crossroads of physics, psychology, and the paranormal, drawing on everything from Einstein's relativity to Jung's scarab beetle to make a case that precognition is not only real but explainable through mainstream science.
He spent years as an editorial director at one of the country's leading psychology organizations before a UFO sighting in 2009 sent him in a very different direction — and he never really looked back.
You can find his writing at The Night Shirt and on Substack, and his books wherever books are sold.

A doctor walks into a trauma room and sees a dead woman floating above a dying man. He isn't the patient's physician. He just felt the pull to go in.
That's how this story starts — and it gets stranger from there.
Hundreds of nurses, doctors, and everyday people have reported witnessing something at the exact moment someone dies. Not near-death experiences. Something different.
They were healthy, awake, and fully conscious. Some were thousands of miles away.
Researchers have now collected over 800 of these cases. The patterns are nearly identical across cultures, ages, and belief systems — including committed atheists.
What are they experiencing? And why have so many of them stayed silent for decades?

THE LATITUDE. 
How do you join a cult without knowing it? 
Here's how it happened to thousands of people in San Francisco just a few years ago. You're with a trusted friend; maybe on a hike, or sitting in a bar or just hanging out. Out of nowhere, your friend asks you: "Can you keep a secret?" Of course you reply that you can. 
Your friend hands you a small black sleeve, about the size of a credit card. On one side of the sleeve is a geometric pattern. On the other side, the words "Absolute Discretion". 
Inside is a security card. Printed with a website and a code. Later that night, you go to the site and enter the code. 
The website responds with: "Congratulations. You've been invited to the Latitude." 
What happens next, changes you forever. 
Let's find out why.
