Embedded in the floor at Denver International Airport is a simple, granite marker. A plaque to commemorate its long overdue completion and give thanks and praise to its many financial contributors. A token that's so commonplace, you'd probably walk right by it. But that one piece of granite, just laying on DIA's floor causes a lot of controversy. M…

Sure, granted - vacations are great, but there's not a lot of laughs to be had in shuffling through an x-ray machine, clutching your pants up, wondering how many bare feet have stepped on this floor before yours... But you can't blame the airport itself. It's not out to make your life…

That one strange noise that's caused so many problem... After Castro, JFK, The Doomsday Clock, the CIA, David Bowie and William S. Burroughs...we lay out what Whatever Remains believes caused Cuba's Sonic Attack. And like everything with this story, its not what we thought it was. Who's ready for our season one finale? Let's do the Havana Hustle. @…

The solid one fact we have about the events that occurred in Havana in 2016 is the identity of the first doctor that the State Department rushed to examine the affected Americans. Dr. Michael Hoffer. His diagnosis is the foundation of pretty much everything we learned early on about the Cuban sonic attack. For the State Department, the Department o…

More than 2 years later, and still no real answers to mystery of the Cuban Sonic Attacks. No cause, no culprits, no weapons have been found - no nothing. But the State Department has the unenviable responsibility of delivering answers, so we here at Whatever Remains decided to pitch in and help them eliminate some options for that one little noise …

What's does a sonic weapon even look like, anyways? We may not have an answer for that, but we know what its does, its noise effected the hear of all of 25 American diplomats. The one consistent symptom - our only real clue to the cause of the attacks. What noise could do this? This episode we look at one such possibility and its history as a weapo…

Join me for Season One of the Whatever Remains Podcast as we delve into the m…
