In 1983, David Oates dropped his walkman into the toilet. If you're under 40 years old, a walkman was a portable cassette player. If you're under 30, a cassette was how we listened to music in the stone age. Anyway, after being dropped, David's tape player would only play tapes in reverse. At first, he found this entertaining. There were lots of songs that contained hidden messages that you could only hear if you played them backward. But *those* messages were placed there intentionally. Soon, David discovered messages hidden in human speech that were NOT intentional. Messages that were put there by the speaker's subconscious. Turns out, we all do this. In fact, when we lie, our subconscious actually encodes the *truth*, backward, inside the lies that we tell. This is *really* interesting. Because that means, the truth about every conspiracy is right in front of your nose. If you know how to find it. #CIA #Mystery #ReverseSpeech 〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰 EXECUTIVE PRODUCERS: Gino Gentile Jennifer Gentile AJ Gentile Patreon Members THANK YOU MODS: jengen13 (Mrs. Why Files) Daniel Van Auken Victoria Young Zanythos Loolykins JohnnyBGood Cricket Brett Kotenuki Hybrid WingedSpider Jschopp The Darkness Paul Rohrbaugh 〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰 SOURCES & LINKS https://www.wikiwand.com/en/List_of_backmasked_messages REVERSE SPEECH HIDDEN MESSAGES IN HUMAN COMMUNICATION | CIA FOIA https://www.cia.gov/readingroom/document/cia-rdp96-00792r000500380002-0 CIA Library Entry - Reverse Speech - Reverse Speech https://reversespeech.com/2017/06/cia-library-entry-reverse-speech/ 1991-REVERSE SPEECH, THE ACOUSTIC EFFECTS ON BIOLOGICAL SYSTEM. https://archive.org/details/CIA-RDP96-00792R000500380002-0 David Oates Website https://davidoates.com/about/ The Great Reverse Speech Lexicon by David Oates https://reversespeech.s3.amazonaws.com/thegreatreversespeechlexicon/greatreversespeechlexicon.pdf https://www.wikiwand.com/en/Electronic_voice_phenomenon https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/paul-is-dead/ John Austin's Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@Johnthebackwardsdude 〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰 🙏 SUPPORT THE WHY FILES 🙏 https://www.patreon.com/thewhyfiles (Fun, Free Perks!) 👽 BUY WHY FILES MERCH 👽 👽 https://shop.thewhyfiles.com (Code: LIZZIDPEEPLE for 10% off first order) 👽 💬 CHAT WITH US ON DISCORD 💬 💬 https://thewhyfiles.com/discord 💬 〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰 🌐 OFFICIAL WEB SITE: https://thewhyfiles.com 🕵️ Submit a topic, suggestion or just say hi: 🕵️ https://thewhyfiles.com/tips 🎨 Have a product suggestion or want to design artwork for TWF? 🎨 https://thewhyfiles.com/merch 📸 BE A WHY FILES MODEL (and get free stuff!) 📸 Send a photo of you/family/friends watching TWF, 📸 wearing TWF gear, using TWF merchandise: 📸 https://thewhyfiles.com/wild 〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰 🎧 THE PODCAST VERSION 🎧 🎧 https://thewhyfiles.com/podcast 🎧 〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰 ▪TWF ON THE WEBS ▪https://www.reddit.com/r/TheWhyFiles/ ▪https://twitter.com/OMGTheWhyFiles ▪https://www.instagram.com/OMGTheWhyFiles ▪https://www.rumble.com/thewhyfiles ▪https://thewhyfiles.locals.com ▪https://www.tiktok.com/@thewhyfiles ▪https://www.facebook.com/OMGTheWhyFiles 〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰 🐠 BETTER CHANNELS TO WATCH: 🐠 https://www.youtube.com/c/HecklefishMoriarty 🤓 https://www.youtube.com/c/TheWhyFilesBackstage
