Episode 289: The Schuylkill Notes
Imagine you open your favorite box of cereal, but instead of a prize inside, you find a folded-up note detailing how secret societies control the population. This has been the reality for residents of Pennsylvania and neighboring states for nearly a decade. They’ve been disturbed by these messages delivered via sealed food products, retail clothing, and trees in public parks. Who is sending these messages and what do they want? This week’s episode is The Schuylkill Notes.
